Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Zong Shiyuan silently half kneeled on the ground. His face was grey and dead. He gritted his teeth and didn’t beg for his life.

Zong Shou only felt a headache. He really didn’t know how to deal with his uncle.

Zong Shiyuan in the past didn’t treat Zong Shou too badly. Based on what he knew, Zong Shiyuan was controlled by someone. His body wasn’t under his control.

After all, in name, he was the only relative of Zong Shou left in the world. Killing him in one knife felt comfortable. However, Zong Weiran would return one day, and at that time, who knew how his father would look at this matter.

This era focused on the filial piety word. One had to consider the thoughts of other people.

After hesitating for a moment, Zong Shou’s tightly frowned eyebrows started to relax.

He didn’t need to worry, he only needed to do matters based on fairness. No one will be able to argue. Even if Zong Weiran returned, he couldn’t blame him.

“I heard that uncle is the one that personally led that sky fox Xue family over? Didn’t you know the reason why my father hated and repelled them? Don’t you know that you are leading the wolf into the room?”

Zong Shiyuan’s expression twisted, instinctively thinking about speaking to argue for himself. However, a moment later he was silent, blood seeping out from the corner of his lips.

Zong Shou’s eyes raised. Looking at the situation there seemed to be something behind all this? Did he fall for the Xue family illusionary mist heart charming technique?

However, he didn’t put this matter to heart and also didn’t pity him. If he didn’t have such a thought then even if the Xue family royal race used that technique it couldn’t cause him to have that ambition.

Taking in a breath, Zong Shou had a decision, “Colluding with the enemy to plot for the throne is a huge crime. You are my Uncle and I will let you off from dying. I’ll remove you from your right pillar general position...”

He waved with the sword towards his head. Zong Shiyuan instinctively dodged. However, the moment his body moved, he stopped, revealing a mournful expression. Only to feel a sharp intent from the side cover down on him. Like if he moved slightly and did anything bad to Zong Shou it would kill him on the spot.

That junior Zong Yuan has grown to such a terrifying level.

At this moment, he lost all hope. Even if Zong Shou chopped his head on the spot he had no grievances.

That sword light was right at his head before it’s trajectory moved to the side. Blood light exploded out. Zong Shiyuan’s left arm was broken through the root by this sword. In just half a breath, a huge intense pain surged into his mind. Cold blood dropped out as he still forcefully kept his body and spine straight.

Only then did Zong Shou say,”...and make you a handicapped person. I’ll punish you by breaking your arm! Are you happy?”

His eyes were filled with shock. That sword was done to probe.

However, Zong Shiyuan’s reaction surprised him. This person was willing to die.

He originally wanted to thrash his cultivation but decided to make him handicapped instead. Zong Shiyuan was different from that Zong Hao.

He felt his heart relax. The matter of today was mostly completed. All that remained was that Zong Shi.

At that moment suddenly everyone around all knelt. First, Hu Qianqiu and Qiu Wei. Then, Hu Zhongyuan and Zong Yuan. Then, everyone nearby all bowed to Zong Shou. Hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers all kneeled on the ground.

“Welcome the prince back to the city to inherit the ruler’s work...”

If it was before he entered the city, Zong Shou’s blood would boil and he would be filled with ambition and pride from these scenes.

Now, he only felt slightly happy, filled with not much emotion. He also mocked himself in his heart. Like a person like him wasn’t suited to be a good Monster king.

Just as he was about to wave his hand to instruct them to rise, he which he felt his soul ocean explode.

Who knew what sign it was, but his soul ocean whirlpool and dantian started to boil like it was extremely delighted whilst also filled with worry and unhappiness.

He could feel some energy suddenly gathering inside his body.

His face was filled with surprise.

“This energy, is this the so-called energy of the emperor path?”

This so-called energy was gathered by the strength of the country and the intent of people’s heart. When it reached a certain extent, it would form into a physical form, king energy adding to the body...

This item had many benefits. With this energy protecting his body, anyone who tried to assassinate him would have to pay a huge price.

And if one used it well, using the strength of the country, even a person who could cultivate could kill those high-grade martial cultivators and spiritual masters.

However, the cons were naturally a lot too. Restricted by heaven and earth, one’s lifespan would be reduced. Be it a martial path or spiritual cultivation, they would face obstacles.

Which was why the so-called king path martial techniques didn’t cultivate the soul but focused on intent. If they strengthened the people’s safety and the strength of the army, they could similarly fight with experts of the world.

Like that Lu family occupying 800 small worlds. Their elders wouldn’t be at a loss even against Saint realm experts.

However, Zong Shou knew that to gather up the energy of the emperor path. At least one must take charge of hundreds of millions. One also needed to have the foundations of a dynasty and also have the heart of the people.

Although Gantian Mountain city-owned 5 provinces of land, they were mostly subordinate cities. They only had 10 direct cities with 80 million people. Moreover, they only built the city for 10 years and most people weren’t loyal. Moreover, his current situation was still at the stage of being doubted by everyone.

With just such a foundation, why did he gather up this energy of the king path?

This item was something others wished for. However, to him, it was the most poisonous poison.

The heaven and earth had its laws and the energy of the emperor path was indeed really strong. Naturally, it had many restrictions.

What Zong Shou wanted was the pinnacle of the martial path. He didn’t have much interest in having any achievement on king path martial arts.

He was originally planning to take this Monster king position and then search for treasures in his memory to deal with his problems. Or if time isn’t enough to directly choose an elite in the Zong family to give up his position to.

He didn’t expect that things would happen so quickly.

The moment this energy was gathered, it wouldn’t dissipate. It would stubbornly wrap around and drill into his body. No matter how the true qi and soul power in his body chased it away, it couldn’t. In the end, it seemed like it was going to merge with his body.

Just as his face was filled with cold sweat and he was in pain, his spiritual sense gazed across as he looked at the illusionary spirit sword that was floating in his soul ocean.

“I forgot! I still have a second soul!”

The 2nd soul was also the embodiment of his consciousness and also a portion of his soul. To use it to absorb this energy of the king path might work.

However, the moment this thought rose up, he couldn’t help but feel his body hurt. This illusionary spirit sword was something he spent so much effort to form. He nourished to such a level used so much energy, Everyday he purified it with soul power and injected many runes.

However, at this moment sacrificing it was better than letting his body’s soul invaded by the energy of the king path.

Without hesitation, along with Zong Shou’s thought, that one origin sword immediately flowed along Zong Shou’s body to absorb those energies.

In just a moment that one origin sword body was extremely firm, slowly turning into a bright yellow color.

One could even clearly feel that the sword body was filled with vast strength.

Zong Shou was worried instead of delighted. This change had wiped out all plans and messed up everything.

This sword should be renamed emperor path one origin sword. In the future, he also didn’t know how he should deal with it. Using this illusionary spirit sword to block it was a long term plan.

Luckily there were only a few threads of the bright yellow energy formed which were being absorbed away.

Zong Shou frowned, looking at Zong Yuan in deep thought. The only thing he could think about was this only change.

... the battle of Ruohai Straits was a battle of country strength. Trampling over enemy formations, was to threaten the Yunxia and Blazing Flame cities such that they won’t be a problem in the short term.

He gained one more unparalleled general seed, raising his reputation and recruiting the people heart. However, it wasn’t able to cause his country strength to increase to such a level?

In the next moment, Zong Shou had an idea. Then, his face turned green and white.

Was it because of himself?

The strength of a country involved reputation, talent, people sentiment, soldier power, and so many factors. One more Zong Yuan could make the army of Gantian Mountain so strong? In terms of formation battles, he was above Zong Yuan.

Although Zong Yuan was an unparalleled general seed, after all, he was still young and weak. He couldn’t compare to himself in the future, going through thousands of battles, the commanding technique that he had trained up.

This time he wanted to slap himself in the face in front of everyone.

...he had calculated for everyone but overlooked his factor.

He hung his head low in sadness, totally different from his confidence from before.

...this Monster king position was a huge hole. Damn it, what a con. Luckily he had this one energy sword which could replace his main soul which gave him some chance of saving the situation.

The people around all didn’t sense anything. Seeing Zong Shou not only not happy but look dull and sad. They only thought that he was affected by the matters of today.

They couldn’t help but feel emotional. Zong Shou was decisive when he killed, his methods were vicious, making people respect and fear him.

But now, looking at that pained and pitiful expression, he was not a bloodthirsty person, making them feel more at ease.

Even Zong Shiyuan who had his arm broken had eyes that shook with regret.

Hu Qianqiu was a brute and didn’t have many emotions. He got a little impatient as he waited, raising his head and saying, “A country has to have a master! Prince, please move towards the Chongzhen hall for your ascension to take over the Monster king!”

Zong Shou came back to his senses, looking at the Gantian mountain peak, breaking out in a smile. The matter today was settled, and no matter how he hesitated, it was also useless. He needed to think of methods in the future to deal with all the proper matters well.

Only feeling that with this matter done, he had solved Zong Shou’s last wish...

With his heart obstacle removed, his cultivation, even without having some progress, his future cultivation would not have many burdens.
