Rumor has it that the deep sea is also the place with the most "gates".
If Marquis Tuodong really went overseas, then it would probably be very difficult to find him.
"That's normal. As a top-tier noble, the East Sea is his territory. If he really colluded with the Spirit Witch Clan, how could he not leave himself a way out?"
On second thought, Shen Qian wasn't too surprised. "I just can't understand why someone at his level would betray his clan?"
If the betrayal of a top-tier noble were to be made public, it would likely be a devastating blow to the beliefs of many lower-level martial artists. No wonder the Council of Nobles issued a silencing order.
"Many kings and nobles were not modern people. They only suppressed their desires back then because of the power of the Nine Kings. Just like I told you a long time ago, when martial artists reach a certain level, they have actually transcended the category of 'human' and no longer regard themselves as 'human'."
Shi Dingyan, however, remained calm and said indifferently, "They are capable of anything in order to achieve complete transcendence."
He nodded, and could only sigh.
"If Marquis Tuodong really ran overseas, that would be fine. He probably wouldn't dare to come back easily. I'm just worried that he didn't actually go overseas. In any case, Junior Brother, you must be careful."
Ling Xiao gave instructions.
Shen Qian nodded slightly. He had thwarted the Lingwu Clan's conspiracy. No matter what Tuodong Hou was planning, he had directly ruined their plans, and Tuodong Hou had every reason to resent him.
But even when facing kings and nobles, Shen Qian has the basic ability to protect himself, so he is not too worried.
Shen Qian only thought of one thing: he wondered if Marquis Tuodong had any connection with the Hundred Kings Palace, since No. 56 came from the Hundred Kings Palace.
After talking with Wu Wei that day, Shen Qian realized that he couldn't say anything about the Hundred Kings Palace. This could only mean that even Wu Wei didn't know about the existence of the Hundred Kings Palace.
The day was filled with turmoil. Shen Qian had not yet entered the Hall of Hundred Kings, and he had deeper concerns. Even if he did enter the Hall of Hundred Kings, he did not know who to negotiate with regarding the matter of No. 56.
He was worried that if Marquis Tuodong was one of the kings in the Hall of Hundred Kings, things would get complicated. This was why Shen Qian had not yet entered the Hall of Hundred Kings.
For some reason, none of the three mentioned their senior brother, Jiang Huan, very often.
Shen Qian could sense that his third and fifth senior brothers probably didn't know much about their eldest senior brother either. At least in Shen Qian's tentative questioning, the two of them probably didn't know which era their eldest senior brother came from.
Ultimately, all of this can only be tied to Marquis Jingcheng, but with Elder Gao's return date uncertain, there can be no answer at this moment.
But Eighth Senior Sister...
On the night she learned that Shen Qian was unharmed after the Nine Heavens War ended, she returned to Jingcheng ahead of everyone else, leaving only a short letter and never seeing Shen Qian again.
Shen Qian strongly suspected that she had also witnessed the scene of Tantai Qin protecting her.
...
Jiang Zhongjun and his group returned to Jiangzhong from Shanghai. Shen Qian did not go back to school with the others, but went to Jiangzhou first.
After the Nine Heavens War ended, even the military forces in Jiangzhong gave all students a three-day holiday.
Considering the limited time, Shen Qian gave up the idea of ​​returning to Jingcheng and only stayed at Jiang Xuan's martial arts hall for a day to wash away all the fatigue of this trip to Shanghai. Only then did Shen Qian return to school feeling refreshed.
Upon returning to school, Shen Qian immediately went to the Jiangzhong Army's Lushu Camp.
Having received the news early, Shang Zuo, Centurion Lin Tong, and others were waiting at the entrance of the Ninth Company, their postures ramrod straight.
"Good morning, Company Commander!" Everyone greeted loudly upon seeing Shen Qian appear.
The Ninth Company is no longer the dilapidated place it once was. The row of soldiers standing guard at the gate are in bright armor and full of energy. Chen Qian stopped in surprise after only glancing at them.
"Company commander, what's wrong?" Lin Tong asked, puzzled.
"These soldiers have all broken through to the initial martial artist level?"
Shen Qian asked in surprise.
Although he had disciplined the troops when he last visited the Ninth Company, only a little over a month had passed.
He clearly remembered that the previous Ninth Company did not have centurions and very few novice warriors, but the number of military warriors standing guard at the gate alone exceeded twenty.
"Heh heh, Company Commander, have you forgotten the reward and punishment rules you set before?"
Lin Tong laughed, "As long as you break through to the initial martial artist level, you'll receive 20,000 in cash and a reward of pills. We've also gotten back the resources that were owed to us and seized in our Ninth Company. Many veterans were already just one step away from becoming initial martial artists. With such a huge reward and no shortage of resources, nearly two hundred people have broken through to the initial martial artist level in the past month..."
"so much?"
Shen Qian was also startled.
"Also, the battalion has helped us complete our organizational structure by transferring 1,200 men from the reserves. Now the entire battalion has a strength of 2,132 men. However, the position of centurion has not yet been decided. I have drawn up a list based on our usual combat merit assessments and training, and we are waiting for your decision, Company Commander..."
As the group walked in, they talked, and Lin Tong reported all the things that had accumulated over this period of time to Shen Qian.
Shen Qian listened as he surveyed the camp.
The Ninth Company's current garrison is more than three times larger than before, with military construction teams carrying out construction and repairs everywhere. The soldiers being trained also look neat and orderly, which greatly pleased Shen Qian.
As for the pile of things Lin Tong reported, Shen Qian thought about it and decided that he would stay in Liandi for another two days, so he would deal with them all later. After dismissing Lin Tong and the others, Shen Qian went to his private cultivation room alone.
