Chapter 691: 691
He rubbed his temples in pain before he flew up to 3,000 feet above the mountain peak .

Looking down from at Gantian Mountain City from above, one could see that, compared to a year ago, the city had expanded by half its size .
The city walls built before were too small and were boxed in by numerous houses .
The second layer of walls were under construction . The City Protection Spiritual Formation was being redeployed .
Luckily, at this moment, the entire Donglin Cloud Continent had settled down .
Under the suppression of four million troops, a year had passed since Donglin had any wars .
Due to the reputation and might from the Seven Cloud Mountain battle, no one dared to challenge Gantian Mountain .
The entire Gantian Country was so peaceful .
The only thing Zong Shou was not happy about, was that ever since his Green Wind Stone Path started to get profits, earning 300 Grade-9 Mind Stones in a year, there weren’t such good things anymore .
Any large city in Donglin was repairing and building roads . They treated him as a thief to defend against . Even if he got the rights for the roads, it came with a heavy price .
Preposterous!
He only collected a higher price and the year restrictions were a little longer . Those paths were really well made .
Luckily, the more stone paths there were, the crafting shops and carriage businesses started to prosper .
The tens of horse breeding areas around Donglin would sell close to 100,000 Grade-2 Cavalry each month, earning substantial sums .

Apart from that, the commerce tax increased drastically . In the past, Donglin took 1 . 5 months to travel from east to west for a carriage with 8 Grade-2 horses . Now, it took just 25 days .
This was still due to the Eastern Region having many areas without their Green Wind Stone Paths completed .
If they were all connected and one headed out from Gantian Mountain, one would need just 10 days to see the Cloud Ocean in the east .
At this moment, there were numerous carriages carrying goods coming in and out of the gates .
At least 10% of all commerce tax entered his pocket .
The current Donglin actually had a prosperous atmosphere of 10,000 years in the future .
“It seems like I underestimated myself . Who knew that I could rule a country to such an extent…”
He felt gleeful, actually forgetting that he hadn’t touched government matters in two to three years . He took all the credit from the few Cabinet Elders for himself .
When he first took over Gantian Mountain, it was too poor .
Just the country tax alone was comparable to the income of 10-20 High-Grade Mind Stone mines .
All this still hadn’t calculated Huizhou which was under Zhang Huai’s rule .
Following this, he frowned and looked below .
One could see a Giant Dragon with a bunch of Grade-9 Flood Dragons leisurely swimming around the cloud layer .

This was the Yin Dragon which forcefully entered the Avici Throne two years ago .
However, at this moment it had changed .
Although its body was illusionary, it was now white . The scales seemed to have something like Hanxi’s silver-white flames, looking really Saint-like .
That thick Vengeful Energy was totally gone now .
Not only this Giant Dragon, the other Flood Dragons were the same .
At this moment, even Zong Shou didn’t know if they were still considered Yin Dragons .
If not, then what kind of race are they?
He had asked Aokun to take a look, but that Saint Realm Expert had a weird expression .
He said that the Yin Dragon had merged its soul mark together with the source of the Avici Throne .
Although he could forcefully take it out, it would badly damage the Country Protecting God Artifact .
Following this, Zong Shou was helpless and wanted to ask help from the Buddhists . Kong Rui stopped him . According to the newly appointed Supervisor of the Directorate of Astronomy and Calendar, this was a Country Protecting Saint Beast which was connected to the luck of the country and it was inauspicious to kill it .
Zong Shou was shocked, how could something that forcefully occupied a nest become his Country Protecting Beast?
He didn’t see that fellow do anything . It either stayed within the throne or flew around the sky and let the sun shine on it .

What was weird was that although it was huge, around 100,000 feet long, each time it came out of the mountain peak it made no sound .
Less than ten people in Gantian Mountain could sense its presence .
It was formless and shapeless with no trace . This could be considered one of the natural abilities of the Mysterious Yin Dragon .
The problem was that the one in front of him was obviously shining silver light, its silver armor was extremely eye-catching .
The Giant Dragon head passed him and still was unfazed by Zong Shou .
Xiaori, who was standing on his shoulder, raised its claws and shouted out like it was saying hi to the Dragon .
That silver-white Dragon finally turned around, opening its mouth and roaring as a reply .
When the Dragon opened its mouth, the wind blew and sound waves rippled . Xiaori was perfectly fine whilst Zong Shou nearly fell, his hair was in a mess .
His lips twitched and he had an urge to skin this Giant Dragon alive .
However, thinking about how this fellow was many tens of times stronger than him, Zong Shou suppressed these thoughts .
Since Aokun wouldn’t help, then he could only compromise . When he stepped into the Celestial Realm, he would take his revenge .
Scoffing coldly, Zong Shou stepped into the air and left Gantian Mountain City . Moments later, he was dozens of miles away .
This was where the army camp was . Not only was it not abandoned, it had even been expanded considerably .
Looking out, one could see eight Giant Ships orderly lined up 1,000 feet away from the ground .
It was a million feet long and the short ones were half the length .
There were six which were hanging in the air while two were held up by wooden structures .
At this moment, there were hundreds of Spirit Masters busying themselves around the two space ships .
They were either repairing the broken areas, setting up formations or reshaping the ship .
“It is rare for the Ruler to come over…”
When that voice spread echoed, a person suddenly appeared beside Zong Shou .
It was Tianqi who was smiling wide, he seemed to be in a good mood .
“There are already six Space Ships completed . The other two will be done in at most two months . Even these two broken Night Demon ships, I guarantee with my life that after the repair they will be stronger than before . ”
“With Sect Leader in charge why would I not be at ease?”
Zong Shou nodded and glanced at this person before smiling, “I heard that two months ago your Kongqi Sect opened the mountain to recruit disciples . You took in 100,000 disciples…”
