Chapter 454 - Teen Governor Commander



Chapter 454: Teen Governor Commander

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Time flew. In a blink of an eye, it was a year and a half later.

Outside Gantian City on that wide road, a group of cavalry soldiers galloped quickly.

Not long later, a majestic giant city appeared in front of the eyes of this group of cavalry.

“Governor commander, we have arrived in Gantian City!”

There were a total of 40 people, and all of them strong and muscular brutes, riding on the strongest windrider foals. They also wore exquisitely crafted spiritual armor made by spiritual blacksmiths.

The one at the helm was extremely pretty, having a petite body. What she wore was a silver crafted armor suitable for women.

She had been closing her eyes. Now that she opened it her attractive eyes seem to encapsulate the universe. Touching, deep and bright.

She first looked at the path below her, deep in thought.

“From Rainbow City to Gantian Mountain City, 740 miles of qingfeng stone road. Within my Great Shang, there are less than 50 stretches of them.”

Qingfeng Stone could gather wind. Using stone to make the path it could help to conserve energy for the cloud stepping foal, such that its galloping speed would be increased by 3 times.

“This was built in the last year! That Gantian Monster king invested nearly a million grade 4 beast crystals to built this road. A total of 7 of these spread through the border, a large portion of them still aren’t completed. I heard that anyone who uses this path has to pay, to make up for the monster king’s loss. It caused nearby merchants to hate him to the call whilst being delighted about it.

The person who spoke was beside the teen, a hawk nose and green face, wearing the uniform of a capital commander. At this moment his face was filled with indifference as he shook his head.

“Building the qingfeng stone path is indeed a good thing. However, today the Donglin Cloud Continent war situation hasn’t ceased. To not prepare troops for war and spend money on this is amusing. If Gantian Mountain City is destroyed in the future, this will just be a gift for orders...”

For the Great Shang army system, 10 thousand people was a town with a commander leading. 30 thousand to 100 thousand was an army with a capital commander. Further above would be a governor commander who had 350 thousand people under him.

The girl known as governor commander didn’t give a reaction. She looked at the giant city in the distance, the shock in her eyes growing thicker.

“Who knew that Donglin Cloud Continent, this desolate land could have such a magnificent city!”

Looking on slightly from the outside, one would know that the city was brimming with life and had a huge population.

That greenish complexion capital commander mocked in disdain, “It is just similar to a state city of our Great Shang and is a little weaker. Does governor-general need to order people to go in to inform the monster king to come out to receive the decree from heaven?”

The girl shook her head, “This Gantian Mountain City had 13 provinces under him. Even in our central continent, it is similar to a vassal state and we can’t treat them arrogantly. Moreover whether or not I give this decree to this person, I still need to see the situation within before I decide...”

When he said those words, that girl had covered her face with a silver mask, directly heading towards the city gates.

The defending soldiers outside the city seemed casual, but it was tight within. However, at this moment be it the Donglin Cloud Continent or the central continent everyone cultivated martial arts. As such, they didn’t confiscate their armor and weapons.

Only asking about their past, recording down all their cultivation before letting them go. They saw that their statuses were extraordinary, so right after they entered, a red swift bird flew towards the Gantian Mountain peak.

That silver armored teen looked at it but didn’t care at all. She looked all around the streets before her pupils constricted slightly.

“This Gantian Mountain has so many cultivators!”

The people all around all had martial master level cultivation. Brushing shoulders with one another, the crowd never ceased. A short thousand feet street and he saw close to a hundred xiantian master. There were also many sprite masters, occupying 10% of the population.

The ships on both sides mostly sold and purchased various beast leathers and spiritual materials. Secondary would be weapons and prosperous pill businesses.

The green-faced capital commander had a solemn expression on his face, “I asked around and this was because of 2 years ago, a series of political decrees by the Monster king. He opened up martial arts books and spirit master secret manuals to them. It was said that just xiantian master alone there are 40 thousand. The cloud ocean hunts this year, and 400 thousand mythic masters followed.”

The silver armored teen frowned and continued to walk forwards. She felt a little weird. The streets were very clean, and compared to Great Shang capital city, it was even cleaner. When she used spiritual sense to reach out she felt that there were several holes below where all the dirty water was excreted through.

That capital commander looked at her expression and smiled, “this was because of the Monster king, this kid is a cleanliness freak and doesn’t like dirt. It’s was why he invested a hundred thousand beast crystals to build this water channel. The city became cleaner.”

The teen shook her head. A moment later she arrived in a region which had a stream running through it. Her lips under the silver-colored mask instantly rose.

Although this place was changed into a commerce street, this place still had a lingering prostitution aura.

This place was Shili Ling Xiangding, she had heard about it. After the Monster king ascended his first political decree was to close this place down.

“So in capital commander Li’s eyes, this Monster king is a preposterous and incapable ruler?”

That commander paused for a moment before nodding his head without hesitation,” he can’t be said to be an incapable ruler, but he is preposterous. This kid is talented, unfortunately, he became famous too early and had never been through setbacks, making him arrogant. If it was in a ruling climate, his work will benefit a country. However, it is a chaotic world. I heard that Yunxia and Blazing Flame mountains prepare their troops day and night and want to fight back. Longxiang City’s Thousand City alliance is also getting larger and larger, spreading over 17 provinces. They are also staring aggressively at Gantian Mountain. This kid isn’t thinking about prepping his troops and instead is largely reducing the army. He is too confident...”

The silver armored teen nodded her head, deep in thought. After a moment she directly walked towards a restaurant at the side. A place where people from all walks of life gathered was most suitable to gather news.

The moment she entered, that teen heard a sigh. What they were speaking about was exactly what commander Li mentioned.

“What a pity! What is that Monster king thinking! Other people are all expanding but this one wants to make the army more elite. The 13 provinces under Gantian Mountain, 2700 over cities originally had 25 million troops, now there are just 3 million. If Yunxia and Blazing Flame Mountain attack what will the ruler use to block...”

“You can’t say it that way. After he reduced the army, didn’t he add some more troops after? The troops in the army are at least martial master grade and there are many spirit masters. With lesser troops, there is a lesser burden. It is also much simpler for Gantian to rule the cities under it, freeing up a lot more labor force. The ruler reduced taxes such that the common people can buy clothes, salt, and Jewelry. If not where will all of us go to earn money?”

“Scoff! You also must look at the time! At this point, war isn’t over. 300 towns, no matter how elite they are, won’t be of use. Others can kill you by just piling people over you! That Thousand City Alliance has 30 million troops. His highness is a good ruler which is why I am not willing to see this Gantian die!”

His tone filled with hate which caused the entire restaurant to go silent. A moment later he smiled.

“There’s also an even more preposterous thing. I heard that his highness stopped bothering about administrative matters. Letting all matters to be handled by the “cabinet”. He also gave a lot of power to the people in the Meeting Hall, himself also has his power restricted. It such a chaotic time he dares mess around.”

“It is indeed preposterous. However, he is a little smart, not letting go of the military. Now he is also reducing personal troops...”

“What’s the point of controlling the army? The finances are all in the hands of others!”

“Maybe his highness doesn’t have the ambition to unify this Donglin Cloud Continent.”

“That is probably so. How unfortunate! If this entire Donglin was under Gantian Mountain, my business would be able to increase by several folds!”

“Why are we talking about this for? Speaking of, won’t they be meeting in the Meeting Hall in 3 days? We will have a good show. It will be an intense battle between those 2. Unfortunately, it is so hard to get a ticket to watch.”

“Hehe, I bought a ticket. I spent close to 300 grade 4 beast crystals...”

Meeting Hall?

Curiosity appeared in the eyes of the silver armored teen. She looked towards capital commander Li with a questioning gaze. The latter shook his head, “I have never seen it. I heard that it was made by this Monster king, similar to the ancient times when various tribe leaders had meetings. All the merchants and nobles all feel honored if they can sit in.”

When he heard the words “various tribe leaders had meetings”, the silver armored teen shook her head.

This Gantian Monster king made one speechless. However, since she had a chance today she wanted to take a look at this Meeting Hall.

“Since this Monster king is so preposterous, why did capital commander Li suggest to choose this Gantian Mountain last month when you had the meeting with his majesty? And not that Thousand City alliance Longxiang Mountain City?”

That capital commander Li’s expression turned solemn, “I think that because the Monster king is preposterous, unwilling to expand which was why he is the best choice. Yunxia and Blazing Flame have too many powers. The Longxiang Mountain City lord, although strategical and good at military and politics, has too much ambition. The alliance has too deep connections with the many sects. Although their power is the strongest in Donglin Cloud Continent they aren’t a good choice! If Great Shang wants to choose a side to support, this Gantian Mountain City is best.”

The silver armored teen couldn’t help but nod, her expression fluctuating. Just as she was in deep thought, she heard someone exclaim from the side.

“Isn’t that the ruler? Is he touring the city?”

The teen was shocked, walking beside the railing. Looking out, only to see a group of cavalry with fresh clothes and majestic horses crossing by.

The one at the helm was a teen, he was as elegant as a girl, wearing the king robe. Beside him was an old man.

Without needing to ask, the silver armored teen knew that this was Gantian Mountain prime minister Ren Bo.

In the next instance, the teen sensed something. Turning around she saw a teen young master looking outside with a teasing expression.
