After leaving the raging world river, Zong Shou drove the Royal Demon God Shuttle and headed towards the Cloud World.

The spacetime storm that exploded out due to the destruction of the Qin Emperor Tomb still ravaged the surrounding area.

Zong Shous movement speed greatly dropped. It wasnt as slow as normal cultivators travelling, unable to move forwards at all, however the shuttle was more or less affected, like it had entered the Xuwang Ocean.

Zong Shous heart sank. This spacetime storm covered sixty worlds and Tianfang World was within this range.

If Great Gan wanted to send troops over they would definitely be affected. Only Earth Grade Warships would be fine and be able to pass through the storm.

Which is why the transportation speed would be really unideal. One must know that Great Gan only had twenty over Earth Grade Warships in the Cloud World.

However thinking about it, if the Night Demon Race wanted to invade from here, they wouldnt have a good time too.

He calmed himself down and noticed two streaks of light speeding over.

One of them was Lin Xuanxuan and the other was Yuan Wushang. The moment they got close he laughed, I was saying how could such an invincible person like you die to the hands of such a small Qin Emperor Tomb? You are indeed perfectly fine.

Lin Xuanxuans face was extremely ugly, Do you know how long the two of us have been searching for you in this space?

Shen Yuexuan rushed over to Tianfang World long ago. After the small sized world had collapsed, he at least collected twenty thousand puppet Celestial Soldiers that had been freed.

No matter where it was placed at, this strength couldnt be underestimated.

However after Shen Yuexuan left, only Yuan Wushang and her were left to search for Zong Shou.

We are really helpless, it is tough to say it all in words!

Zong Shou shook his head and felt it weird, Didnt Li Xin tell you all where I was at?

Based on what he thought, as long as Li Xin brought his letter back. Common People Path and the Great Gan officials should know where he was.

Li Xin?

Lin Xuanxuan said in an annoyed manner, He said that your current situation is special and he didnt know who could be trusted which was why he wasnt willing to say. He said that rather than risk saying out where you were at, that he should wait for you to return yourself.

She had a weird expression on her face, This person should be a Qin top general and should be a vengeful corpse. How did he suddenly come alive. How did you recruit him? To make him loyal is probably not going to be easy.

By luck! I have an artifact that can restrict him.

Zong Shou laughed and explained it really simply. Then he asked seriously, What happened in the Cloud World? Just a few days passed and I feel really uneasy, unable to calm down

The moment he said that he saw that Lin Xuanxuan kept silent, her face filled with an apologetic tinge.

Zong Shous heart fell and he knew that the situation wasnt good.

Yuan Wushang sighed, Dark World Demon Court has already invaded Tianfang World, it is said to have ten Jiedu Ministers. Yinyu obtained the twelve Copper Men and also invited Li Biexue to act as the Great Shang Grand Teacher. Recently he is really arrogant, more important is Jin Buhui that dummy

South of the Yangtze River, east of Jinling City.

On a wide black and white taichi stone platform, two people sat opposite one another.

This was the newly build Heaven Worshipping Altar in Great Gan. Jinling was one of the side capitals of Great Shang and had its own palace and complete palace architecture.

It was built when Great Shang was at its strongest and had always been kept in a good state. The Shang Emperor often came over to tour.

Which was why Great Gan benefitted. It needed to be repaired and renovated a little, not too much funds had to be spent on it.

The altar was the same. It was much stronger than the one at Gantian Mountain. Its location was also ideal. It was nine hundred and ninety feet tall, located in a spiritual eye, it was all made of great materials.

This place was higher than the stone walls and allowed one to see the scenes outside of the walls. One could see many ships knocking and fighting one another.

Many large ships shipped the Great Shang troops across the river to embark on the south shore.

The entire Jinling City was on the verge of war. Three hundred thousand troops defended the four sides. There were also hundred thousand troops guarding the streets to suppress the city.

However Kong Rui didnt bother at all.

Although the Shang Army was strong but half of its elites were lost during the God Falling Plains battle.

Now it was made up of newly added troops and it was just insane to want to take down such a majestic city in a short time.

What he cared about was the person in front of him.

Emperor Star shifting left, dragon flowing out of the abyss!

His spiritual sense scouted the star phenomenon and his eyes were filled with excitement. He then looked opposite with a questioning gaze.

What does Senior Mingri Xuan think?

Mingri Xuan broke into a laugh, It seems like His Majesty has already broken out and is a good thing. Actually Imperial Astronomer Kong is a divinating genius so why do you need to ask me?

Kong Rui smiled and said seriously, Since I was born I have heard of your name. Although you arent the ancestor of the Dao but you are a grandmaster level person. Which is why I would like to ask for advice from you!

He smiled, Why not we bet, how long the lifespan of Great Shang would be and whether or not Great Gan would rise or fall.

Is this a test?

Mingri Xuans face was filled with shock. When did a junior ten thousand years after him dare to test him?

However he did have the ability to do so.

He raised his head and looked into the sky, only to see an emperor star shining bright. Like it was absorbing nutrients, causing dozens of stars around it to dim.

Even the two stars beside that could barely go up against it a month ago were being suppressed.

The star phenomenon was being stirred up and messed about once more. It was covered and in chaos due to layers of powers. He was one of them.

The stars he observed now were scenes that appeared after he removed numerous false scenes. He also didnt know whether it was correct or not but could only predict the future in such a way.

The Dragon Swallowing Situation still isnt settled but the dragon is out of the abyss. It is a new situation, the dragon is in the sky and flipping the clouds. What does the lifespan of Great Shang matter? It wont be able to avoid the calamity. As for Great Gan

Mingri Xuan closed his eyes and breathed in. A while later he opened it, It is swallowing energy like a tiger!

His eyes were filled with disbelief. To be able to predict such a situation was far more than he had expected.

Kong Ruis eyes were filled with shock, he could only predict that it was the dragon flying in the heavens. After which he was not skilled enough to see anymore

As compared to this Mingri Xuan, his Dao cultivation was still so much weaker?

Thinking about it, he smiled, It seems like great minds think alike, however other people might not think the same

He said emotionally, Lets bet. If your last sentence is correct, I am willing to write to His Majesty to make you our Grand Teacher.

Mingri Xuan was stunned. He came here on that bit of hope, at most he hoped that he would be able to gain Kong Ruis pity to become a Country Protecting Mage, to gather some luck for himself.

Who knew that Kong Rui would be so open.

The ancient Qi Cultivator line used energy to cultivate. If it was smooth they would improve extremely quick but if it wasnt then it would be like rowing a boat against the current.

Which was why the title of Great Gan Grand Teacher was a top treasure to Qi Cultivators.

Energy was like a stream, the water was thin and one had to cherish it.

Kong Rui was also of the Qi Cultivator line and was able to get to Celestial Realm in a few years using his position as Imperial Astronomer.

It was tough to imagine that he would give up the position of Grand Teacher that he could have so easily gotten.

He had a weird expression but his reaction was really quick, Why do you need to do that? I have no such intentions.

Are you being coy? We are both Qi Cultivators so I understand your thoughts.

Kong Rui gave a slight smile, My daughter is not only the Great Gan commander but also His Majestys concubine. If I dont want to be punished by the Heavens then it is best I give the position to someone else.

When he said that he smiled, Moreover I have something to ask!

Mingri Xuan thought about it and it made sense.

However Great Gan Grand Teacher? It was indeed really tempting but he had to think about it

He thought about what Kong Rui could ask from him. Moments later he understood.

Is it regarding Hundred Victory Pass? I heard that your daughter is personally commanding that battle?

Kong Rui was expressionless as he nodded, Yes! Please cast a spell along with me.

Mingri Xuan understood, the pass was now attacked by Huoya Demon Lord.

To counter him, one needed to gather up large amounts of ice energy.

He was also clear that this was Kong Ruis true terms.

To want to become Grand Teacher, he needed to do something for Great Gan first.

He made his mind up but still smiled, It is july and the dry period. To summon rain is impossible.

Not Hundred Victory Pass but the entire Jiangnan. As for impossible? Since you say that Great Shang is not a problem, then whether or not you are going against the Heavens or following its will is another matter.

Kong Rui was expressionless, not showing that he was tempted at all, A few years ago I divined for Kong Yao. Since her fate was changed her life would have no calamity and tribulation! It would be smooth

When he said that, he stopped. He looked coldly outside.

Only to see that flames blazed dozens of houses away, smoke billowing above.

The streets that were originally quiet had many people running out in panic.The entire city was in chaos.

Kong Rui was not surprised and just sighed.

They are just asking to die! Unfortunately we dragged down the people in the city

Zong Yuan was in charge of defending the city and Hu Qianqiu was here too to support him. These chaotic scenes werent much of a problem.

Mingri Xuan smiled and didnt speak. He understood why he wanted the entire Jiangnan to rain.

Only then could he slow down everything.

Just at this moment a laughter spread forth.

However to me. Mr Kong Rui is the one asking to die!
