Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

While Kong Yao was hesitating, Zong Shou heard numerous clamoring noises outside.

“…It is the Ruler! The Ruler is really on the chariot…”

“His looks are really good. The ancients talked about natural beauties, this should be the case. He seems more good looking than even woman.”

“So our Ruler is actually a little doll that isn’t even sixteen…”

“Oh, he looks even younger than my kid!”

Zong Shou was instantly furious, what mess was this? Shouldn’t these people be praising him and discussing his victory on Mysterious Cloud Mountain? That was the third strongest spiritual house!

Moreover, he was going to unify Donglin. After the five continents split up, the assorted dynasties established here were unable to achieve that…

Luckily there were people who spoke up to scold them.

“What are you all saying? He is a Saint Ruler, tough to see even in thousands of years! Our Donglin was riddled with wars, did you imagine having lives like we are having now?”

“Naturally! People in a chaotic world are like dogs, it was impossible to be as prosperous as our Gantian Mountain. Ruler and his dad are rare great Rulers!”

“I heard that in a few days the last few cities in the east of Donglin will be attacked by Left Pillar Qiu. Tsk! We let those country bumpkins in the east ride on our coattails!”

“I only hope that there are other directly managed cities…”

“That’s right! Any directly managed city, they have someone to rely on and the old are taken care of. Recently I heard that agriculture taxes were all removed, was there such good stuff in the past?!”

“Unfortunately, it was just the agriculture tax If this commerce tax could be removed that would be better…”

Zong Shou felt pleased, these were truly the good people under his rule. However, tax free? They can all forget about it!

Moments later, he heard some people discuss, “Our Ruler is good in all areas, the only thing was that he wis too lustful. There are actually five or six women in his chariot.”

“Isn’t that so? I heard that even the Great Shang emperor in Central Continent can’t do anything to the Ruler. He decided to marry that Kong to the Ruler. This woman wasn’t willing at the start, but didn’t she surrender to the Ruler half a month ago? I heard that she helped the Ruler command an army to war…”

Kong Yao originally was just lowering her head and not bothering. At this moment she felt really wronged, as her hands tugged at her shirt.

“Oh, I heard that this time he brought a nun. She already returned back to common life, but before it seems like she was from Jingtu Sect?”

“Jingtu Sect? Was it Qingyin Lingjing, Zong Shou is really lucky to actually to return that girl to normal life. He really is extraordinary! I heard that the woman there are all as beautiful as fairies, but unfortunately they only care about Buddhism. What is even good about those ancient Buddhas and candle lamps…”

Jingyin wasn’t calm anymore. Lowering her head, she silently chanted the Pure and Calm Sutra.

If she knew that this would happen, she wouldn’t have accepted Zhao Yanran’s request and boarded this jade chariot.

Zhao Yanran laughed so hard she was about to fall onto the ground. A moment later, there were people discussing her…

“There are also people from Seven Spirit Sect, the first seat of this generation. The beautiful demon sect disciples are the best at man and woman duo cultivation. Who knows if the Ruler could handle her?”

She was startled, and killing intent appeared in her eyes. Then she laughed and gave Zong Shou a provocative gaze.

Zong Shou’s neck shrunk, his body shuddering as he leaned away. He really wasn’t interested in this woman. However his actions really caused Zhao Yanran to turn furious from the humiliation.

The chariot passed by slowly and entered another road.

On the roof, that scholarly teen was totally stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief as he muttered, “Saint King energy, Saint King? How is that possible? Extremely pure, extremely noble, extremely clear, there is no impurity at all…”

The muscular man by his side couldn’t hear clearly, his brows rising up. “Junior brother, what did you say?”

“Nothing!” The teen scholar was shocked to his senses by his own words. Even if he said what he saw, other people definitely wouldn’t believe him.

Moreover these matters were of huge importance. Keeping it to his heart and not saying it to others was the safest way.

It concerned matters of the heavens and if he was not careful, he might incur disaster to himself.

“I only noticed a familiar person. Have you seen the little miss of the Kong family before?”

“Kong Yao?” The muscular man laughed out loud. “I heard that recently that little miss had been married to the country Ruler by the Great Shang emperor. Actually, as a woman she should raise kids. Killing together with men on the battlefield, what is that?”

The scholar laughed, knowing that this senior brother had never thought highly of women.

“Actually, just now I used a Heaven Viewing Talisman given by Master…”

“Oh?” The muscular man’s expression turned serious, filled with shock and surprise.

The Heaven Viewing Talisman could be said to view the changes in one’s luck and fate. However, he knew that this scholar had only three in his hands.

Master told him to select the Master of Heaven’s Destiny, and thus gave him this item.

He actually used one here.

“Did junior brother feel something weird about this Kong Yao?”

Without waiting for him to ask, the scholarly teen nodded. “I looked at her life. At this moment, she is like an eagle soaring. Her aura was extremely sharp and intense, white light rising into the heavens, gathering millions of stars, and shining down everywhere…”

The muscular man frowned once more, his eyes filled with shock, “Why is it like that?”

Due to Master, he knew that the Great Shang grand teacher had said some words about this woman.

He said that her life in a ruling world would be just a normal basic general, able to rule a border area.

If one placed too much importance on her, her luck was too intense, she wouldn’t be able to take it, and she would die early on.

His Master and the Kong Family elders had a good relationship. Due to the Kong family, he became the Imperial Astronomer, and thus had secret techniques to view luck and fate. He felt that Zhongxuan said that to exclude her, which was why he felt it wasn’t true, and specially went to take a look.

In the end, when he returned he sighed continuously.

He heard that this woman had won several battles in the north. He loved war matters and analyzed them… they were just normal battles. Using the majority to strike the minority, any good general would be able to win easily.

He was confident that on the battlefield he would be able to beat her easily.

However, based on books about fate he had read from the Master, the eagle was a sign of someone rising up. White light surging meant that she would lead troops to conquer things.

Gathering millions of stars meant she was about to command a huge army.

The so-called Alkaid referred to the Seventh star of Beidou actually had another name, “Army Breaking”…

“Did Junior Brother see wrongly?”

Half-believing and half-disbelieving as he asked, only to see the teen scholar give off an enlightened expression. He smiled, “So that is the case! This woman is a normal and ordinary general, at most she would be above average. But she is a commander talent. She can’t be compared to famous generals like you, she is a general of generals. In Great Shang, those hundred thousand troops can’t show off her talent. Zhongxuan and our master, their eyes messed up this time…”

The muscular male blinked in disbelief. General of generals? Commander talent? This woman was really so skilled?

In his heart, he didn’t believe it. -Even Master and someone like Zhongxuan couldn’t see clearly. You used the Heaven Viewing Talisman for others to see one’s fate, how would you know?-

The young scholar didn’t want to argue about this matter, and didn’t need the big man to believe him.

If not for this matter concerning the Ruler’s dragon cultivation, concerning the changes of the overall situation, it was okay if they discussed Kong Yao like they did. However, they needed to worry about some aspects.

People who could view the fate and luck of others weren’t able to do so on themselves. There were also many changes. If one thing changed, a chain reaction would cause everything to be different and as such one couldn’t have great confidence.

If they could divine themselves, just using one talisman to look at himself, wouldn’t he be able to learn about his future? Work for the good luck and avoid the disasters?

Turning to look below the roof, there were still people cheering. Even when the jade chariot had left long ago they were still extremely excited. They all gossiped, unwilling to leave.

The scholar’s eyes showed signs of deep thought. “Senior Brother, in your eyes what do you think about this Gantian Mountain?”

“The Country is rich and the people are peaceful! No, the country is strong and the people are rich. The people here really love their Ruler!” the muscular man answered without hesitation. He also looked down on the streets, only to see that both sides were filled with strong martial cultivators. Even the woman were strong and gave off a fierce aura. Most of them were wearing good silk clothing.

“The martial climate here is really strong! To recruit troops here, their power would be extremely strong.”

The teen scholar nodded, his attention wasn’t here. “This place doesn’t prohibit troops, anyone can carry bows and crossbows…”

The strong man was stunned, and looking closely saw that was really the case. Pretty much everyone brought weapons, crossbows and bows could be casually carried on their backs. There were even many spiritual weapons and artifacts.

He knew that the Great Shang Dynasty had prohibited martial arts for many years, but some still remained in spite of the prohibition. He also knew that place had prohibited long-range weapons. All spiritual weapons and artifacts required one to have a special identity before they could be carried.

This was to prevent people from fighting amongst themselves, and to stop local hegemonies from rising up. Who knew why his Junior Brother had specially mentioned this matter?

The teen scholar continued, “This place doesn’t prohibit words!”

“Oh?” The big man was totally confused. That was a good idea. If this was in the Central Continent, in Great Shang, people wouldn’t dare to say anything disrespectful. If they commented and talked like this, the bailiffs would have caught them and punished them for being disrespectful.

To get out, it would depend on the mood of the people above, as well as the number of silvers you handed over being enough.

However, what did this have to do with them?

After the scholar finished, he didn’t explain his words, just asking, “Senior Brother is planning to join Gantian Mountain?”

“That’s right! Master says that my destiny isn’t right, if I am in the Central Continent I would definitely die. If I am here I might achieve something. My uncle Renbo is the prime minister here, and its nice that I can rely on someone. At least here the politics make sense and the life is peaceful. Although that Ruler is a little preposterous in his rule, the country is slowly getting stronger. The people are all prosperous and safe, the subjects are also treated really magnanimously, and punishments and rewards are really fair!”

As he said that, the big man also gave a self-mocking laugh, “At least here there aren’t extortive taxes and levies, nothing that I, Ren Tianxing, can’t get used to! I am too lazy to go to other places and suffer the dirty atmosphere of those areas.”

The scholar smiled and nodded, “That’s good! I also want to stay here and take a look!”

The big man was instantly shocked, thinking, Didn’t my Junior Brother already make his mind up about the few people in the Central Continent?
