There was a bustle outside the doors of Kongqi Sect. More and more people gathered around here.

Isnt that person Taoyun City lord Yue Guanyun? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?

It looks like him, I have seen him before. How did he die here?

It definitely is him. I heard he tried to assassinate Gantian City lord Zong Shou and failed and was killed on the spot. With Kongqi Sect outer sect deacon Qiao Han as a witness. They are hanging the corpse here as a warning

That group of people instantly took in a deep breath. Their voices were even more chaotic and loud, pretty much unable to hear carefully.

So it really is him! He probably couldnt outwit Gantian Mountain so he tries to assassinate him. Whose hands did he die in, to end up in such a tragic state?

Hei! This world seems like its about to change. Donglin is going to be ruled by one party. I originally thought that the Gantian Monster king inheriting the throne at such a young age that Zong Weirans legacy would be lost. Who knew this kid would be so skilled! Even if that person has no skill he still deserves to be feared!

That Yue Guanyun is an overlord of a generation. He actually died just like that? Who did he get killed by

Xiong Ba felt his hands turn cold. As for the words those people said, he didnt bother to listen carefully. He exchanged gazes with Feng Nu whose speed was faster than him, who arrived earlier than him. Both of them could clearly feel the chill in each others hearts.

The death of Yue Guanyun meant that the entire Taoyun City didnt have a person to rule it and take charge. Wouldnt that Zong Shou become more unrestrained and untamed?

They were even more astonished. Yue Guanyun was peak earth chakra meridian, not far away from the ascended realm. Who around Zong Shou had such ability? To make him fail to escape and even get killed on the spot? Such that the few Xuanwu ancestors the 3 cities sent were all killed, none of them surviving?

Many thoughts spun in their heads as Xiong Ba looked all around. He saw that there were tens of people nearby standing rooted and looking at the bodies on the carriages.

He recognized a few of them. The manager of Moyun Sect here in Psychic Island. It was this person who sent them a spirit master. With that person there, they werent afraid. Apart from that, there was the Xue family, Mysterious cloud spirit sect, Xuanwu Sect, daoming Sect, Demon Flag Sect, and the Cangjian Villa. Apart from that, there was the aristocratic family deacon that often gave them benefits who were present. They either frowned and didnt speak, or they showed some worry, their faces were green and white, none of them had good expressions on their faces.

Following which, Xiong Ba felt his heart shake as a warning sign rose up in his heart. He instinctively looked towards the doors of Kongqi Sect once more.

Following which he saw Zong Shou walkout. His cold eyes staring right towards Feng Nu and him. The cold killing intent could nearly freeze him

He knew in his heart that from this day on the name of this teen would spread across all mountains and seas, known by everyone in the world.

He was 14 years old but the ruler of a country!

Several hundred miles out of this place, there was a leaf boat which was floating on the cloud ocean. It didnt have the huge size of those cloud ships, but it was tens of times faster.

Sitting on it was Long Ruo, and he didnt use any spells. He only released his soul, connecting with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and naturally, there was wind who blew onto the light boat, allowing to swiftly move in the air.

Beside him was Jing Tao Zhenren who had just parted ways with Zong Shou not Long ago.

So it seems like he had planned it before he entered the beast tomb and led you into the trap?

Seeing Jing Tao Zhenfei nod his head, Long Ruo instantly broke out into a laugh, What a cunning kid! It seems like I cant blame senior master for this. This kid is so scheming and planned it out exquisitely. Anyone else would have fallen for it. Even I also fell into his plan. I thought he hired our disciples because he was worried those 3 cities would attack them

Although this kid is really scheming, his personality is not bad. He knows how to treat people well. Moreover, our Lingyun Sect has gained a lot from this trip!

Although Zong Shou had made use of him, Jing Tao Zhenren still had a good impression of Zong Shou. Especially before he left the boat Zong Shou also personally gave him a few more corpse harboring pinnacle sword grass as an apology which touched him.

This teen was most probably a good person. It was just because he was a city lord that he had no choice.

Spending 20 days of time together, he had a feeling that Zong Shou didnt really care much about power, and seemed like he has other goals in life.

He suddenly had a thought, raising his head and staring at Long Ruo with burning eyes, Didnt junior Long say that observing the shooting star scene on Psychic Island 10 days later can help you comprehend sword intent? So why are we leaving so early?

Long Ruo still sat down, he didnt try to hide anything as he said expressionlessly, If we didnt leave early, those people are wary against Lingyun Sect so how would they dare to Attack Zong Shou?

Jing Tao felt a chill down his spine as his brows furrowed, Gantian Mountain returned this time with huge profits. Their power has definitely ballooned. However, in my eyes, they most probably recovered to the state when Zong Weiran was still alive. Even without us acting, the other sects will find a way to dissolve them. Zong Shou doesnt have any martial cultivation. Anyone in the sect could kill him. Why did junior Long have to treat him as an enemy? Your bias towards him is so deep? I know you had once rejected him from entering our sect. Why did you have to do that? As an outer sect disciple, Gantian Mountain would instead be under our wing

Senior master Jing Tao please be careful with your words!

Long Ruo finally showed signs of rage, like the soft spot in his heart was suddenly stabbed. His mood suddenly blazed up. A moment later, he calmed himself down.

Xuanyuan Tong has already ascended and only has a year to deal with normal matters and give up his position. The choice of Xuan Mountain City lord if nothing goes wrong would be Zong Shou. Do you know how much land Gantian Mountain have? I think you have been charmed by that kid! If he doesnt die, it would be a problem for Lingyun!

Jing Tao also instantly got furious. Those few sentences targeting him made him annoyed. However, Long Ruo was a direct disciple, so there was nothing he could do.

How wouldnt he know? Xuan Mountain City was slightly weaker but they had 3 provinces. If the kid inherited Xuan Mountain, Gantian Mountain would expand once more and have 1/5 of Donglin Cloud Continent in their hands!

The outline of a dynasty was slowly rising in Donglin.

However, even if he could unify Donglin, how much influence would that have on Lingyun Sect? Apart from Lingyun Sect exceeding common people life, before when the few dynasties in Donglin rose up their influence wasnt affected either. As long as they did things properly they could even make the dynasties rely on them.

Now that those few royal families have dissipated, Lingyun Sect was still here.

If the kid doesnt die, Lingyun will have problems? That was just preposterous

This Zong Shou is a little different!

Long Ruo frowned tightly but was unable to say out the exact reason. He just subconsciously didnt want to see this kid have higher achievements.

Even since he knew that ever since this Zong Shou was rejected by him he didnt keep silent but instead rose up, his life getting better and better. Long Ruos heart was filled with disgust and hatred.

If this kid managed to unify Donglin then what would he be?

His heart was shocked and he knew that a devil barrier had appeared in his heart.

Long Ruo tensed up his brows. A moment later he managed to calm himself down. The appearance of a devil barrier was because of Zong Shou. Wiping the kid out was the easiest way to solve it.

From now on, he naturally didnt need to care about it anymore.

Senior master doesnt have to care about this matter anymore! I heard that you have obtained a lot of corpses harboring pinnacle sword grass. Why not return early to breakthrough?

Jing Taos chest rose up and down intensely. He smiled instead of raging, Forget it I wont care about this matter anymore! However, that teen is indiscernible and it definitely isnt as simple as the surface seems. You might not be able to get what you wish

I said it already, you dont have to worry!

Just as he said that a golden light talisman shot through the air. Looking at where it came from, it was from the direction of Psychic Island.

Long Ruo causally picked it up, after it entered his hands his body shuddered. Following which his sunken eyes appeared much darker.

Jing Tao Zhenren glanced, only to see the words were rough Zong Shou isnt dead Yue Guanyun died insteadThe body hung for all to see, instantly he laughed, This is the outcome you wanted? Forget it, Long Ruo, do what you want. I just hope you wont incur calamity for our sect in the future! I have rarely seen such an intelligent person in my life. I cant see through him. If he wants to take revenge, our sect wont be able to take it! I think you should either mend your relationship with him or go all out to kill him

After he finished, Jing Tao wasnt willing to stay in the same boat as Long Ruo. He stepped on the spiritual sword he got from the beast tomb, driving the sword forwards towards another direction.

It seems you already have a demon in your heart and have improper thoughts in your head. Lets hope that your trip to the Dragon Gathering Mountain dragon gate wont end up in humiliation to our sect!

Long Ruos expression didnt change. He just sat withered in the same spot, not bothering about Jing Taos words. Even if the wind energy had stopped and the boat stopped moving he also didnt bother.

He had really miscalculated this time.

His eyebrows rose as he looked at the Psychic Island. Ten months ago when he first saw Zong Shou, he was like an infant fleeing for his life in fear.

Close to a year later, he had leaped up into the ruler of the west of the Cloud Continent.

One wrong thought had caused such a talent to be missed out by the sect. From today on there would definitely be many who blame him. This concerned the fight for the future sect leader position and it wasnt like he didnt have competition.

Who knows who had helped Zong Shou to kill Yue Guanyun?

Why were Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan why were they so close to him? Not to mention why did they tell him not to incur calamity for Lingyun Sect? Even Lei Dong had such high hopes for Zong Shou

He suddenly thought back to the marriage between Han Nishui and Xuanyuan Yiren.
