"Thank you very much for your help, Major Shen!"

After the Nine Heavens Battle, Shen Qian is now a celebrity in the mountains and seas. The mountain and sea warrior turned around and saw him. After being stunned for a moment, he quickly thanked him.

Shen Qian nodded without saying much, and his figure, carrying a long sword, vanished into the sky in an instant, heading to the next battlefield.

...

Night had fallen. With his sword, Shanhe, leaning to one side and stained with blood, stood atop the city wall of Jiangzhou, watching the still-burning flames within the city.

After the military personnel entered and advanced layer by layer, the scavengers finally scattered.

However, their numbers were simply too great, and given that it was urban street fighting, even well-trained military personnel spent nearly a day to finally eliminate the scavengers hiding in every corner of Jiangzhou.

The area around the cave has been taken over by Jiang Zhongjun, and they are waiting for the martial arts department to come and handle the aftermath.

All around, some scattered martial artists from the mountains and seas were also recuperating and healing their injuries, glancing at Chen Qian's figure with awe from time to time.

Today, Shen Qian single-handedly killed thirteen people from the Scavenging Mountain and Sea.

Such a formidable record is simply unimaginable for ordinary martial artists from the mountains and seas.

Fortunately, Shen Qian intervened, allowing the chaos to end in the shortest possible time.

Shen Qian's gaze drifted into the distance, seemingly oblivious to the stares around him; instead, his brows were furrowed.

Today's events were all strange and baffling, leaving him puzzled.

Hundreds of thousands of scavengers poured into Jiangzhou City through the underground tunnels. Although it caused great chaos at first, Shen Qian felt that these scavengers were like headless flies, running around and killing aimlessly in the city.

But they spent countless hours digging this tunnel, how could they not have a clear purpose?

What puzzled Shen Qian even more was that although scavengers were ruthless, they still had human instincts and were afraid of death.

But today, these scavengers who entered Jiangzhou City had no idea how to escape. Even after the military warriors entered, they fought to the very last moment.

Standing atop the city wall, one can smell the thick, pungent stench of blood. Countless corpses of scavengers are scattered throughout every corner and every building in the city.

Including those who scaveng for food in the mountains and seas...

They were all incredibly fierce, and even though they knew they were no match for Chen Qian, they fought to the very last moment.

What is the purpose of this?

Furthermore, a day has passed since the incident occurred, yet not a single prince or noble has appeared in Jiangzhou.

Shen Qian contacted the Earl of Pingyang, but received no response.

It was as if all the kings and nobles had suddenly disappeared...

That's absolutely outrageous.
