After Jiang Wuyuan returned to his tent, Ruan Kongyin immediately came to greet him.

"How are you? Did they give you any trouble?" Ruan Kongyin asked with concern.

Jiang Wuyuan shook his head: "No."

Ruan Kongyin observed Jiang Wuyuan's expression and, seeing that he truly looked normal, refrained from asking further questions: "Then get some rest."

"Mm." Jiang Wuyuan nodded.

He really needs to rest for a while.

Feeling mentally and physically exhausted, Jiang Wuyuan quickly walked to his bedside, lay down nimbly, and fell asleep in a second.

——

On the other side, Wu Zhihuai heard about Ruan Yanqing's high regard for Jiang Wuyuan and reported the matter to the authorities.

After learning about this, Ruan Yanqing reported it again.

So much so that while he was idly idly enjoying the breeze in the deep abyss, he suddenly received a message notification from his bracelet.

He opened it and saw that it was a message from Ruan Yanqing.

The story is about his disciple displaying extraordinary power and saving a grandmaster on the battlefield.

Nian Qingfeng raised an eyebrow.

This kid really has the same style he had back in the day.

As for any violations of military discipline, Nian Qingfeng simply pretended not to have seen them.

—He broke quite a few rules when he was young.

Although it wasn't something to be praised for, this consistent pattern of violations gave Nian Qingfeng a strange sense of comfort.

Heaven knows, that old guy Sheng Wanshi always nitpicked his mistakes and mocked him, making him feel that he was the only soldier in the world who had violated military discipline.

Here comes another one.

He was also his apprentice.

Although somewhat pleased with himself, Nian Qingfeng also noticed some things he hadn't noticed before.

This kid actually has a spatial ability?

She's very good at hiding her true intentions from him.

Logically speaking, Jiang Wuyuan's sword talent is already amazing enough. If he also has a second talent... then this kid has a lot of secrets.

Nian Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was considering something.

He didn't think Jiang Wuyuan was some kind of bizarre event like a reincarnation of a powerful being; at his level, he could perceive many things.

Including the soul.

Therefore, Nian Qingfeng was certain that it was a young and newly born soul, rather than some strange plot from a storybook about possession or rebirth.

Even excluding this possibility, there are still many mysteries surrounding Jiang Wuyuan.

First, there's his martial arts technique, and his unique sword skills.

This had always been a question in Nian Qingfeng's mind, but he chose to believe it at the time and did not delve into it further.

But now, Jiang Wuyuan's talent has far exceeded his expectations, causing his suspicions to resurface.

It seems I'll need to have another talk with his apprentice after this is over.

It wasn't that they suspected Jiang Wuyuan would do anything to threaten the Dragon Kingdom, but rather that they feared some strange thing might lead Jiang Wuyuan astray on the path of cultivation.

Everyone has their own opportunities, and Jiang Wuyuan was no exception.

He needed to confirm whether this opportunity would have any negative impact on Jiang Wuyuan—even though it seemed pretty good at the moment.

——

Jiang Wuyuan was awakened by hunger.

Only after becoming a master or powerful being can one truly achieve the state of fasting, surviving in the world without food or water.

Before this, humans still needed to rely on eating to obtain energy.

They had been starving for several days during the war, and then slept for a day and a night after returning, so it's no wonder they woke up hungry.

However, there was no food left in the military camp at this time, so Jiang Wuyuan had to take out a vial of nutrient solution from his spatial ring and drink a few mouthfuls.

It didn't taste good, but it was very filling, so it was better than nothing.

"Xiao Yuan, are you awake?" Ruan Kongyin's voice sounded behind Jiang Wuyuan.

He turned around and saw Ruan Kongyin walking towards him: "Hmm, have something to eat."

Ruan Kongyin smiled, as if she had expected this, and took out a thermal lunchbox and handed it to Jiang Wuyuan: "I didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly. I was afraid you would be hungry when you woke up, so I got you some food. I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I took a little of everything. Eat up."

Jiang Wuyuan thanked him and took the lunchbox.

"How's the beast tide going?" Jiang Wuyuan asked while eating.

"The beast horde has retreated hundreds of miles, they're probably still planning their next attack," Ruan Kongyin said, sitting down next to Jiang Wuyuan. "But there's another piece of news."

"What?"

"The Sama Empire, the Federation, and the Heistan Empire have all been invaded by the beast tide." Ruan Kongyin's voice was heavy. "Moreover, the number of troops that the alien races have sent to them is no less than the number that have come to our Dragon Kingdom's border. Now, the three countries have been sending out letters of distress one after another."

It can only be said that the Ruan family is indeed a large family, as they know such important and private information.

Jiang Wuyuan was speechless at the trust Ruan Kongyin placed in him.

"Don't overthink it, it's not a secret," Ruan Kongyin said softly.

Although he said this to Jiang Wuyuan, he still tried to lower his voice as much as possible, naturally not wanting others to hear. "I estimate that the higher-ups will arrange for troops to go and provide support tomorrow."

Jiang Wuyuan frowned slightly as he recalled the battle of the previous two days.

They barely managed to hold off this beast tide. If they were to send more people over, wouldn't that mean the front line would become even more dangerous?

If possible, he would certainly prefer as many soldiers as possible to survive.

“They won’t be transferring troops from our side,” Ruan Kongyin reassured with a smile. “I can’t say for sure, but our Dragon Kingdom has always valued keeping a low profile. The strength you see on the surface is definitely not the true strength of our Dragon Kingdom.”

These words put Jiang Wuyuan at ease.
