After all, the moon god in ancient times was a genuine king.
"No."
Tantai Qin finally spoke, but only uttered one word.
His tone was calm, but it was full of determination.
She seemed to have just gone through some kind of struggle, and only now did she turn around and look at Chen Qian for the first time.
Their eyes met, but soon, Tantai Qin lowered her eyelids again, no longer allowing Shen Qian to explore the inner thoughts hidden in her deep eyes.
"Since that's the case, I, the Marquis, will discipline his prized disciple on behalf of the Duke of Yanshan today!"
Rejected without hesitation by Tantai Qin, the Marquis of Fierce Bone, his face turning utterly cold, finally could no longer suppress his inner rage.
Boom!
Its momentum, far more powerful than ever before, caused the air within a radius of several miles to distort inexplicably.
Tantai Qin's expression became even more solemn, but she simply gripped the sword in her hand tighter, and a much stronger cold light emanated from it than before, making her even more like a fairy from the moon palace, aloof and unapproachable.
Just as the two sides were about to clash, a sigh drifted from high above.
"My disciple Han Chi need not trouble Marquis Liegu."
The sudden appearance of this voice not only caused the various princes and nobles to change their expressions, but even the usually indifferent Tantai Qin finally showed a change in expression.
Shen Qian raised an eyebrow and looked up. He saw a middle-aged man standing with his hands behind his back, who had appeared on the clouds above.
He was dressed in black and had an ordinary face, far less handsome than Lao Gao. But for some reason, just by standing there, he seemed to naturally become the center of this world, making him impossible for anyone to ignore.
It must be admitted that there was more than one top-ranking nobleman present, but the demeanor of the Duke of Yanshan was absolutely outstanding among them.
Based solely on intuition, Shen Qian could sense that this man was far more dangerous than Tian Ning Gong.
Upon getting up close to this top-tier nobleman who was rumored to be the sworn enemy of the Marquis of Jingcheng, Shen Qian subconsciously activated his Eye of Truth. However, the stinging pain in his eyes the next moment startled him, and he quickly withdrew the light from his eyes.
Han Chi glanced in the direction of Shen Qian, but he didn't know if the other party had noticed anything.
However, Han Chi did not pay too much attention to Shen Qian. He quickly turned his gaze back to Tantai Qin, who was frowning.
"Tantai, come back."
Han Chi said calmly, his words carrying an undeniable air of authority.
Tantai Qin remained silent.
Han Chi did not urge her, but simply looked at Tantai Qin.
The appearance of Duke Yanshan aroused even deeper fear in Marquis Liegu. He stopped his momentum and watched coldly from the sidelines.
"Teacher, it was you who asked me to teach at Jiangzhong Military Academy."
Tantai Qin seemed to have finally made up her mind. She looked up and said, "I am Chen Qian's mentor. This is my responsibility."
Han Chi frowned, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes, as if he hadn't expected Tantai Qin to use such a reason to resist his orders.
"What a day this is! Even the Duke of Yanshan has left the capital to join in the fun."
Wu Wei's sudden words interrupted the Duke of Yanshan, who was about to say something, "I wonder what brings the Duke of Yanshan here today?"
Upon hearing this, Han Chi temporarily put aside the entanglement between Tantai Qin and Shen Qian. He turned to Wu Wei and said, "I am also a member of the Council of Kings and Marquises, and even a permanent director. The Nine Heavens War has caused such a great disturbance, and I have heard that it even involves the conspiracy of foreign tribes. Naturally, I cannot sit idly by."
Wu Wei narrowed his eyes. "What are the rules of the Duke of Yanshan?"
"Although I was not present at the scene, I am already aware of what happened."
Han Chi said calmly, "In my opinion, since there are so many doubts about this matter, we should naturally investigate it thoroughly. Minister Wu clearly showed favoritism towards Shen Qian just now, so it is a fair decision to hand it over to the Ministry of Military Law."
Wu Wei was about to sneer when he heard this, but suddenly realized something. He turned to look at the strange-looking Duke Tianning and was shocked.
"So you two were already in sync!"
Wu Wei's anger was palpable.
Seeing Wu Wei's almost trembling eyebrows, Shen Qian realized that there might be some inside story he didn't know.
Tianning Gong did not respond to Wu Wei, but suddenly moved, trying to bypass Wu Wei and rush directly towards Chen Qian.
Wu Wei snorted coldly and was about to stop him, but a shadow flashed before his eyes and Yan Shan Gong stood in front of Wu Wei first.
"Please wait a moment, Minister Wu."
"Han Chi!"
Wu Wei's face was cold, but he stopped walking, and his expression clearly showed caution.
Without any obstruction, Lord Tianning appeared in the sky above Chenqian in an instant. Just as Tantai Qin was about to make a move, Marquis Liegu's aura had already locked onto her.
There were no more obstacles in front of Shen Qian and Tian Ning Gong.
Lord Tianning made no attempt to hide the sinister smile on his face. He stretched out his hand, and a large, mottled hand made entirely of spiritual energy appeared in the air, reaching out to grab Shen Qian.
Shen Qian's expression instantly became extremely solemn.
Although he had previously shattered Tianning Gong's colossal hand with a single punch, what he was facing then was only Tianning Gong's illusory form. But now, standing before Shen Qian was Tianning Gong's true form!
Rumble!
Tian Ning Gong's gesture was merely a simple gesture, but in Shen Qian's eyes, the world seemed to collapse. His figure plummeted as darkness engulfed him, while Tian Ning Gong's form grew infinitely taller, expanding to thousands of feet in the blink of an eye.
The suffocating pressure made his consciousness blurry before he sank in. He decisively activated his Eye of Truth, and the world in his eyes instantly became clear.
