Chapter 693: 693
Just as Zong Shou was flying toward the camp outside of the city, Renbo was sitting in a carriage before he stepped off at Zhengan Peak .

His eyes shone brightly, even sharper compared to many years before . However, at this moment, he gazed outside the window and into the sky .
He saw a Giant Silver-White Dragon that was moving around in the cloud layer, flipping around 100,000 feet in the air .
“Silver white but no physical body . So carefree, sometimes I really envy this beast…”
Two months ago, he could already see the 100,000-foot Dragon . Until now, he still wasn’t sure what it was .
It looked like a Platinum Dragon, but it wasn’t as sharp and it also didn’t have a physical body .
It could be a Mysterious Yin Dragon, but it was covered in bright scales and shone a noble light, with no evil aura at all .
He didn’t know if it was a friend or a foe, whether or not it had any nefarious intentions toward Gantian Mountain .
Shaking his head, he retracted his gaze and asked his nephew, “Can you see it?”
Ren Tianxing was also looking but he couldn’t see anything .
“Forgive me for being dumb, but I really don’t know where the Giant Dragon is…”
He was thinking to himself whether or not his uncle was losing the plot?
Renbo frowned and stopped speaking . He had asked many people about it .
There were many who said they did, but afterward he found out that they only said so to please him . The others all said they didn’t see anything .
At this moment, even his nephew didn’t see anything .
It was either there was something wrong with his eyes or there was some other reason .
However, how could something so real be fake? He had already proved many times that it wasn’t an illusion .
He couldn’t help but think back to what Kong Rui said .
It was a Country Protector Beast…
He squinted and then shook his head . He flipped open the history books and also those divination books, but he had never seen such a term .

He only heard that the five Vast Habitats had their own Protector Saint Beasts .
If he didn’t know some stuff, he would have thought that Kong Rui made up that Dragon to confuse people .
However, this beast wasn’t a problem, but it wasn’t controlled by anyone .
The Ruler probably felt the same…
Thinking back to Zong Shou, his expression dimmed, and he smiled awkwardly . That kid probably really hated him .
For such a huge matter like the change of Cabinet, the kid actually didn’t even show up . He could see how much the kid hated him .
He just wanted to help Zong Shou to run this thing well…
He sent over that document because he didn’t want to see Zong Shou personally destroy the country system he had made .
His kindness was not repaid .
Ren Tianxing knew what his uncle was thinking about and seeing the situation he didn’t really agree .
“In my eyes, Uncle is thinking too much . If Ruler is really annoyed about what happened a year ago, why would he appoint you to form the Cabinet?”
The Prime Minister role needed more than half of the Meeting Hall to agree . However, it first needed Zong Shou’s nomination .
Those who ran were no threat to Renbo .
He saw things clearly from the side . He served Gantian Mountain for two years and knew Zong Shou’s personality .
Based on what his Junior Brother said, the Ruler just wanted respect . Although he was a smart Ruler, sometimes he was like a little kid .
Thinking about that, his brow twitched . This Ruler was really interesting .
“Moreover Ruler is also wise and won’t harm the country for his personal gain . Even if he really hates you, you don’t have to worry…”
If it was anyone else, naturally they would have to worry . However, it was Zong Shou, so naturally Ren Tianxing felt at ease .
Renbo’s brow rose up and he gave out a leisurely sigh . In his heart, he really treated Zong Shou as his Junior, his nephew .

He ran Gantian Mountain for close to 20 years, personally seeing Zong Shou grow up . When he was young, he made one worried, but now he transformed into a Dragon and soared above the sky!
The Cloud Crossing Carriage suddenly stopped . Just as Renbo was finding the sudden stop strange, a 70-year-old man hurried in .
It was the butler who followed him for several years . He entered and then bowed .
“Bailing Temple Head wants to meet you . He says he wants to thank you for your good grace . However, I don’t dare to make the decision…”
After he said this, he handed over a box .
Renbo didn’t take it, impassively looking out of the window .
He saw several Taoists in front . The one at the head was wearing white and had an elegant aura . He seemed to have noticed Renbo’s gaze, bowing with a smile .
“Prime Minister Ren’s document a year ago saved millions of my Taoists . Bailing Temple Head Zigui thanks you on behalf of my fellow sect members . I also have something to ask, is Prime Minister willing to have a chat? My Bailing Sect will reward you greatly and you won’t be disappointed . ”
Renbo’s pupils constricted and then he laughed coldly . He took the box and threw it out .
“Scram!”
His voice was firm with no doubt, filled with disgust .
Ren Tianxing took in a deep cold breath . He saw the box open and tens of Grade-9 Mind Stones fell to the ground .
They were really sincere, even he found it a waste .
The old servant knew what Renbo meant, leaving the carriage and then they continued to slowly proceed forward .
Ren Tianxing’s expression turned solemn . The matter of the Grade-9 Mind Stones were tossed behind him as he asked seriously, “Uncle, has Ruler called me back to conquer the outer region?”
He was shifted back from Huizhou for no reason . No matter how Ren Tianxing thought about it, this was the only possibility . On the way back, he had been contemplating about it .
However, the moment he said this, he frowned .
Zigui? Where did he hear that name from?

The Cloud Crossing Carriage headed forward and in just a moment, it was thousands of feet away .
Zigui was at the side with a calm expression . He coldly looked at Renbo’s carriage disappear around the corner .
Only then did he reach out and keep all those Mind Stones into his sleeves .
He was smiling as he spoke, “Told you this Prime Minister was honest and direct . He really is!”
His tone was actually filled with respect . Like he wasn’t annoyed or angry with Renbo asking him to scram .
The Taoist beside him couldn’t understand, “This is really unlike you…”
“It really isn’t like me!”
Zigui was calm, “If it was anyone else and if he said that, I would have killed him with a sword . Since that person saved millions of Taoists, regardless of why, we still need to give in to him . ”
As he said this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the green-shirt Taoist beside him .
This person looked ordinary and humble . If one didn’t pay attention, one would think that he was a normal person .
Upon closer inspection, one could sense the ethereal aura around him .
The Taoist was looking into the sky . He seemed to have noticed something but perhaps he didn’t . His eyes were filled with bewilderment .
Zigui looked upward too, only to see a blue sky with nothing there .
He asked in doubt, “Senior Brother Qingming, is there something weird there?”
Qingming frowned and didn’t speak . In the end, he shook his head, “This is weird, just now I sensed that there was an aura of a Saint Beast at the peak . Sorry for making a fool of myself…”
“Saint Beast?”
Zigui was stunned, looking weirdly at Qingming .
Any Saint Beast would need to have a Yin Soul Body and be worshipped by numerous cultivators, treating it like a God . The method to make one was extremely tough . Only the Confucians, Buddhists and Taoists grasped it .
Even their Taoist Sect, with a billion disciples, only had three God Realm Protector Saint Beasts to protect Daoling Vast Habitat .
Gantian Mountain did have enough cultivators, but in terms of purity of the heart, it was just a joke .
Be it Martial or Spiritual Cultivators, once one got strong enough, the Heavens would restrict them, especially the King Power .
In Gantian Mountain, even though the people were really united, it was impossible for them to have a method to make a Saint Beast .
“Maybe my Spiritual Sense made a mistake . ”
Qingming didn’t pay much attention, looking at the street in shock .
The first feeling he had of Gantian Mountain was that it was clean and orderly . Second, was that it was really prosperous…
Not only Gantian Mountain City, but a large half of the region of Donglin was also brimming with life .
“A year ago, Daoling Vast Habitat told me to return quickly . At that time, I didn’t mind much . A small junior, a small Monster King, what was the need? It was too much of an exaggeration . Now I know that we have to get rid of him! We have to be careful and go all out…”
Zigui kept silent, his situation was the same as Qingming’s .
At the start, he was filled with disdain, but after returning he realized they had made a huge enemy .
“The people are rich and the country is safe; Martial Wind prosperous, paths spreading all over and business going none stop . The prosperity here is even exceeding that of the Central Continent . I have never seen this in 500 years . ”
He took in a deep breath and paused before opening up his mouth .
“I heard that it was due to Renbo . ”
When he said these words, Qingming retorted, “You also believe those words?”
Zigui was instantly silent, he did in fact not believe those words .
“To think those Central Continent Confucians see anything that they don’t like as going against the path, treating Donglin as a barbaric land…”
Qingming said whilst he laughed coldly, “Although I am not good at ruling, since that person could rule Six States at 20 years old, having millions of troops . How could such a person be an average Ruler?”
