The Ruler
86. Conversation with Murong Jianyu.
" Lord, is this harmless?"
" It's dangerous if you paralyze and injure them. Did you do it?"
" I just paralyzed them" Murong Jianyu said.
" Good."
" Ruler," said Murong Jianyu hesitantly.
" Speak..."
" Ruler, to talk and meet with the leader of the ancient God clan is a difficult thing. So far, what's the ruler's plan?" With a serious face.
" Calm down, until now, the plan has gone smoothly. I have asked the elders of the residence of Hua Zhen to take us to meet the Patriarch of the clan, and they agree to it."
" When are we going to see him?"
" Morrow morning, so prepare yourself."
" good. Ruler."
" Jianyu, regarding seeking support and cooperation with the other Ancient Clans, do you have any advice?"
Murong Jianyu was speechless, long enough to think of finding a solution regarding it.
" Ruler, there are indeed many ancient clans, but the main problem is, they don't like to fight."
" Right, but are they all like that."
Murong Jianyu shook his head.
" Lord, there's Shen Guoshi Lieren, they're famous for their skill in hunting down treasures and that makes them greedy and warlike, but they're hard to influence and cooperate with the new god clan. In addition, there are Shen Guoshi Sunhai, Shen Guoshi Feixu, Shen Guoshi Feng, Shen Guoshi Siwang, and one of them is Shen Guoshi Yin. But will we work with those who are so wild and hard to conquer?"
Qing Ruo was silent for a moment. Staring at Murong Jianyu fixedly.
" Alright, I will consider it again, but one of them, namely Shen Guoshi Yin will be our ally."
" But the Ruler..."
" Be calm. I'm sure I can convince them. What about Shen Dong?"
" Shen Guoshi Dong, the ancient god clan that was in the eastern region was indeed famous for being strong and rich, but they also did not like warfare. They tend to let individual problems be solved individually, unless their patriarch is disturbed, then all their strength will interfere, but who wants to harass the great powers."
" But what about Dong He's previous statement?"
" Ruler, it's adab from your fellow ancient God Clan, who previously thought of you as Shen Guoshi Qing" Murong Jianyu said in astonishment, because Qing Ruo was impressed not knowing the habits of the ancient gods when they fought.
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" But that's not what I meant. Did you notice Dong He's condition earlier?"
Suddenly Murong's eyes shone.
" What is the intention of the Sovereign, their main clan is going through a big trouble?"
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" Semi immortal sixth level. What kind of crazy person do you think wants to make trouble with him? Moreover, wasn't an elder usually always inside the clan, but Dong He was in the region at the northern border?"
" right. What is the ruler's plan?"
" After the affairs in the Hua clan are over, perhaps I will move north, towards the Yin clan, then head to the Dong clan, after which head south."
" Good, but ruler, why should we build power in such a far away place. Wouldn't that be a problem in moving the troops?"
" Jianyu, there's no problem in that, since every ancient God Clan definitely has a long-range teleportation gate, so we don't think about that matter."
Murong Jianyu was speechless, and nodded his fist.
After talking about many things, Murong Jianyu then left the room.
" Have a rest and prepare yourself" Qing Ruo said.
" Good ruler," Murong Jianyu said respectfully, then left the room.
After Murong Jianyu completely left, Qing Ruo then sealed the room, and entered the soul world.

Somewhere else.
Hu Shan and his entourage were keeping watch, watching over Hua Zhen's residence, startled by Hua Kai's sudden action coming out of the place.
" Brother Hu Shan, I will watch over him," Yu Jieru said moving after the elder.
" Alright," Hu Shan replied, as he continued to keep watch.
" Brother, do we have to report this matter to the ruler right now?" ask Liong Hei.
Hu Shan shook his head.
" We better wait for the results of the investigation of the Lianghao brothers," Hu Shan replied, while asking the group to stay on guard.
" Good.." replied Liong Hei and his entourage.
****
Somewhere else.
Hua Kai continued to move away from Hua Zhen's residence, not knowing he was being watched by Yu Jieru.
Calmly the figure of the middle-aged man continued to move towards the center of the city, making Yu Jieru who was from a distance of two hundred meters, even more suspicious.
" What exactly did this elder do?" Yu Jieru bathed, while continuing to move and disguising the aura of his cultivation.
After moving the entire time, Hua Kai arrived at the city palace, entering the place, thus making Yu Jieru could only wait outside the palace fortress.
****
In the world of the soul.
Qing Ruo appeared in the western prison. Meeting Yuan Bai and Yuan Hei who were guarding Yin Gan.
" Young ruler," said Yuan Bai welcoming Qing Ruo's arrival respectfully.
" Rest," Qing Ruo said as she entered the prison.
Qing Ruo entered the prison room, staring at Yin Gan who was so enraged at him.
" Agh.." he shouted while trying to remove the black chain from his body.
" Yin Gan, is the torture of Yuan Bai and Yuan Hei still not enough?" qing Ruo asked making Yin Gan even more furious.
" tch... Just kill me!" fierce answer.
" The border general of the northern fortress, it turns out that he is not afraid of death. Maybe I should take you to see General Luo Xing, or General Baoyang Ran," Qing Ruo said casually, leaving Yin Gan speechless.
" Are you scared?" qing Ruo asked startlingly.
" Baj**n small. You think the empire cares about that problem, after all are you sure, capable of conquering-"
" Mongo Guoshi Yin. Don't be arrogant. Do you think that your imperfect forbidden technique is capable of withstanding the onslaught of the imperial main forces? Moreover, the last three books brought by the three sons of the patriarch you still do not have. Are you sure?" qing Ruo asked, making Yin Gan sculpt.
" This is an internal matter of the clan. How do you know? Who are you really?" looking at Qing Ruo fixedly.
" Secret," Qing Ruo replied with a casual smile, while taking out lightning balls as big as grapes, making Yin Gan so frightened.
" Sir, I'll talk. Ta-but don't-"
" Trark.." the lightning balls that were in Qing Ruo's hands exploded, and began to envelop his body, leaving Yin Gan speechless.
" Shen Guoshi Qing." he said with a trembling mouth, looking at Qing Ruo who was casually absorbing the lightning poison.
" Tu-tuan, don't." he said pleading, as Qing Ruo moved closer to him.
" Swhus..." Qing Ruo moved, clutching her neck.
" Tu-tuan, I beg you..."
" Silence," Qing Ruo said trying to absorb her knowledge and soul force.
Yin Gan who knew Qing Ruo's actions then let her soul force be absorbed.
Two minutes later, Qing Ruo ended her actions.
" rest. If the behavior is good, I'll consider your future." then leave the room.
" Ba-baik sir." stared at the departure of Qing Ruo who left the room with a deathly pale face.
Outside the prison.
" Ruler," said Yuan Bai.
" Yuan Hei, Yuan Bai, take a rest" Qing Ruo said, then left that place, and came out of the soul world.
" Swhus..." Qing Ruo appeared inside his room room, and began to check out Yin Gan's soul strength.
At the last minute, Qing Ruo was so shocked as she felt the remaining eighth level semi-immortal strength of Yin Gan's soul force circulate within her soul force.
" This.." said Qing Ruo excitedly.
After making sure to control the rest of the power, Qing Ruo then cultivated, preparing herself for the meeting she had planned.
By morning.
Qing Ruo suddenly stopped her cultivation, as she felt her soul jade badge tremble.
" Hua Kai, what is he doing inside the city palace. Did he want to report to the elders in the main residence to inform this meeting." He sat down while sending a message to Hu Shan so as not to take any action.
" It seems like it's morning" he said, then got ready.
***
Somewhere else.
Hua Zhen in his room was also preparing to meet Hua Diu.
" May Diu er, be able to work well together," his mind then left his room.
****
The main hall of Hua Zhen's residence.
Hua Zun, Hua Thong and the other four elders were already in the place waiting for Qing Ruo and his entourage to appear, while chatting casually.
There was tension from their faces, especially Hua Ding, Hua Hai and Hua Zhi who had not been with Hua Zhen in the northern border desert before.
" Sister Zun, to be honest I'm still not sure in this," Hua Ding said with a doubtful face.
" Right, let alone trusting others." Hua Hai said.
" To be honest, I still have my doubts, but at least we should try" Hua Zun said.
" Right, we just entrust it to the young ruler Qing Ruo. I'm sure he won't mess around with this anyway." Hua Thong.
At the moment when they were chatting, suddenly Heian Bai and Dalu Rong entered the room. It was soon followed by Qing Ruo and Murong Jianyu.
" Young Ruler," Hua Zun and Hua Thong said, welcoming Qing Ruo and his entourage with respect.
" The elders, brother Bai, brother Rong," Qing Ruo said as he cupped his hands respectfully, then sat down on the available seats.
While waiting for Hua Zhen and Hua Diu to arrive, they chatted casually.
" Elder Zun, I didn't see elder Hua Kai?" qing Ruo asked, pretending not to know.
" Young ruler, maybe elder Kai is having some business, so we'll just wait a minute" Hua Zun replied.
" It seems so. We'd better wait a minute" Hua Thong said.
Fifteen minutes later, Hua Zhen and Hua Diu still did not come, especially Hua Kai who also still did not show the trunk of his nose, making Hua Thong and his entourage start to fidget.
