Chapter 664: c

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Just as he walked into the tent, Zong Shou saw Kong Yao beside the map, her brow furrowed as she looked carefully.

She was so focused that she didn’t notice Zong Shou walk in.

Zong Shou smiled, just as he was about to ask, he was startled. He felt that the current Kong Yao was really adorable, her cheeks were red in color, pulling at his heartstrings.

He sniffed and he could smell a fragrance.

Two phrases entered his mind: ‘beautiful like jade’ and ‘like a lotus flower!’

He sniffed his own body. After reaching Grade Seven, his body went through training and was already extremely clean.

No dust and dirt could land on it. However, after these few months of intense fighting, he didn’t have any time to bother with anything else. At this moment, his body had a sour odour of blood, extremely disgusting to smell.

He broke out into a laugh, shaking his head. She was still a woman, even if she was the future famous Commander, she couldn’t be like a male and bear with such a scent.

However, her body fragrance was indeed nice to smell.

Standing next to the map, Zong Shou sniffed once more and took in a deep breath. Kong Yao finally noticed his arrival, her face instantly flushed red.

“Just now I was free so I took a trip to Jiluo Lake. Ruler doesn’t have to worry, everything is arranged well...”

Jiluo Lake?

Zong Shou didn’t understand why Kong Yao was telling him this. Did she need to report to him about where she went to shower?

In the next moment, he suddenly remembered. Wasn’t Juluo Lake near to the Seven Cloud Mountain? It was roughly 2,000 miles away, a large lake which was 30,000 miles from north to south.

When he heard that last sentence his heart jumped.

Everything was arranged? What needed to be arranged?

Speaking of which, he had either been fighting the Prince Jia Mingluo or recovering in secluded meditation.

He didn’t bother much with how Kong Yao used troops and how she planned to gain victory.

He looked toward her with a questioning gaze, only to see her lower her head, not bothering with him.

Zong Shou was instantly speechless. What was she planning? Or rather, was this a test for him as a Ruler?

He stomped as he walked out of the tent.

He raised his head and looked into the sky, only to see rays of light shine down from the sky in the east.

The entire Seven Cloud Mountain was covered in a seven-colored light, adding a dream-like illusionary feeling to the bloody battlefield.

He was startled for a moment before he seemed to recall something. He suddenly laughed out loud, filled with abundant joy.

The worry in his heart disappeared and he felt extremely comfortable and fortunate. He felt that his smartest decision in his life was pulling Kong Yao over to his side.

He suddenly turned around, his eyes filled with anticipation, “Which means that we will definitely win this battle?”

“We might not!”

Kong Yao shook her head, “We need to see whether you and I are able to force them to battle in the day. Best if it is at noon...”

Zong Shou laughed and looked beneath the mountain. Those Night Demons were retreating like that of a wave, entering a camp which was covered in darkness.

This would happen every day. In the past, Kong Yao tried to counterattack in the day, but these Night Demons’ combat strength didn’t weaken at all in the dark mist, instead increasing by 30%.

Since she didn’t succeed, she decided to give up on it and defend those stone castles.

Unless they really had no choice, if not these Night Demons wouldn’t fight with them in the day...

Squinting slightly, Zong Shou’s expression returned back to normal. Although he was still feeling excited, he slowly calmed down.

As expected he couldn’t be careless and overconfident in this battle.

However, he wasn’t as nervous as before. Although it was still intense and dangerous, he could finally see hope.

If he was able to win this battle, they would definitely be able to slaughter a million and end this war!

Taking in a deep breath, Zong Shou scoffed self-mockingly, “It is not that easy for you, what are your plans?”

Kong Yao smiled and didn’t reply, handing over several message talismans.

Zong Shou took them and a moment later his eyebrows rose up.

One of them came from Zong Gang. What it mentioned was that the west side war matter had ended in a big victory.

The only thing he didn’t expect was that Ren Tianxing gathered many Cloud Crossing Carriages as well as all the Grade Two mounts within Huizhou. Tonight, it was estimate they would have 150,000 Elite Cavalry and 200,000 Elite Infantry sent off back to assist Seven Cloud Mountain.

Within three days, the remaining 200,000 would also arrive.

Zong Shou calculated it. If that was really the case, then within three days the 350,000 troops would be able to rush back to Seven Cloud Mountain.

For the battle situation, it was like sending charcoal in the winter.

No wonder Kong Yao would be so confident.

The second talisman came from Navy Admiral Gu Liekong. The rough message was that although the situation was tough and they suffered heavy losses, they were still able to restrict the few space ships of the Night Demon race. However, they could only last for a month.

The last bit of news made Zong Shou frown the most. Gu Liekong actually decided by himself to hand a few Five Tooth Turreted Ships for Shi Ruolan to command.

He felt that it was good to let her follow by Gu Liekong’s side. However, his goal was just to let her gain some commanding experience. He didn’t expect that she would lead troops right now.

What was Gu Liekong doing? action

However, following this he suppressed the worry in his heart. Gu Liekong wasn’t a rash and clumsy person, he had to have his reasons to do such a thing. He wouldn’t be so eager to please his Ruler.

Following this, he started to closely observe the Night Demon Race. Even if they weren’t out of reinforcements, they were nearly there.

A month of time was enough. The Night Demons were unable to use the space ships to pillage and couldn’t find anything in the Cloud Ocean, as such they could only turn their attention to the land. They could only fight to the death with him here!

In the next instant, Kong Yao dotted on the map.

“I am afraid that the surrendered soldiers aren’t committed. Even if it was for their homeland they might not go all out, which is why seven days later I want to destroy this area. Does Ruler agree?”

Zong Shou’s eyes constricted. Kong Yao was pointing right beside Seven Cloud Mountain at the canyon which headed right down the mainland of Huizhou.

If this path was broken then the retreat path for the millions of troops here would be cut off!

Was it an attempt to make them fight to the death?

With a thought, Zong Shou laughed out loud.

Why not? During the Cloud Desolate Era there were instances when one fought with their back against the wall.

10,000 years later couldn’t he do the same?

“Speaking of which, you plan for the final battle to be in seven days?”

Kong Yao hesitated slightly before she nodded, “That’s right!”

“I will just follow you!”

Zong Shou thought about it for a moment before he took up the final message talisman.

This one came from Gantian Mountain’s Renbo. It said that Great Shang already sent an envoy to question him about his killing of Weihai and snatching their troops.

He scoffed coldly and looked toward the east.

Since the Night Demons invaded and Kong Yao started commanding the troops, in these three months, there were thirty battles and they had resisted the two million Night Demons. Although they were forced back, they were never defeated.

Even a blind person could see Kong Yao’s talent in commanding an army.

Although it was average, she covered all grounds. She made no mistake in coordinating all the troops. She perfectly prepared for the entire Huizhou situation, even preparing for things further into the future.

This wasn’t a general to lead hundreds of thousands of troops to attack formations but a commander to lead millions to crush countries!

Although she was still a little rusty, the future invincible Army God had shown her shape.

In just a short time she could become a pillar to support a country.

Who knew whether that person in the Great Shang Imperial City, who personally ditched her to him, was feeling regret now?

He probably vomited blood...

Zong Shou laughed gleefully and smashed these message talismans.

All these questions were nothing to him. As long as he sent some gifts after the war and apologized such that they had a way to back down, this situation would end peacefully.

It wasn’t that he underestimated them but that the Central Dynasty Emperors had always been like that. During such times they would choose peace.

He also saw through the intentions of Emperor Yuancheng wanting peace internally first.

The rise of aristocratic families who prophesized to the appearance of the God Emperor. How would this person regarded as a Saint Ruler by people of the future, find trouble with him now?

The last part of the talisman mentioned the signs of chaos around Donglin. Some City Lords were getting out of hand. There were some people of unknown identities running around and causing problems.

Only these people were much smarter. Before the situation was clear, they weren’t willing to rebel.

With the three million elites suppressing, they also didn’t dare to do anything funny.

Ruoshui had mentioned it to him before which was why he wasn’t surprised about it.

With the war reaching such a point, even his closest people won’t have such high hopes for him.

The Three Sects and Six Schools of the Common People’s Vast Habitat had often asked him if he needed help.

If close friends were like that much less those hidden enemies?

They were roughly thinking that even if Zong Shou could safely leave Huizhou, he would suffer huge losses.

Shaking his head, Zong Shou looked coldly at the map.

Seven days later? Then let’s see who wins and who loses in seven days.

Who will be the Ruler of the east of the Cloud World?

※※※※

15 minutes ago when Zong Shou flew down from the sky and returned to the peak of Seven Cloud Mountain.

Hu Zhongyuan stood at the top of a broken castle and looked upward.

Seeing the body land safely, he retracted his eyes.

He then scolded, “Jia Mingluo really doesn’t know when to stop!”

He knew that nothing could happen to Zong Shou at this moment.

However, he couldn’t interfere in their battle. He also knew that Zong Shou was using his own strength to protect the close to million troops here such that Jia Mingluo couldn’t do whatever he wanted.

The only thing was that each intense battle in the sky caused him to be nervous once more.

He couldn’t help but feel depressed, his talents were still a little weaker such that he was unable to help Zong Shou.

Chai Zhou, on his side, didn’t think too much, “With Zong Yuan aiding, why do we need to worry?”

He looked outside the castle. Although the Night Demon Army was retreating, there were numerous soldiers there, under the threat of the crossbows, who weren’t saved.

Chai Zhou’s eyes turned sharp, “What should we do about those outside?”
