Chapter 431 Chance Clues

Spring goes and autumn comes.

Flowers bloom and fall.

Half a year passed quickly.

Not long after autumn came to Laiyang Prefecture, there was a bleak and deserted smell in the air. The bustling streets no longer had the prosperity of the past, some shops were closed, and there were many ragged refugees at the city gate.

With the sound of horse hooves.

These refugees raised their dirty faces and saw the Qilin costumes. Fear appeared in their eyes and they shrank their bodies involuntarily.

Lian Nishang, who had just killed two or three fourth-level deer monsters, saw this scene and the joy in her eyes gradually disappeared. She rode her horse slowly into the city in silence.

"Sister Yu'er, we haven't been back for just over a month, why are there so many refugees in the city?"

Walking on the wide streets.

Lian Nishang couldn't help but ask.

Ling Yuer curled her lips, "Sister Nichang, you don't pay attention to the trivialities of daily life at all. Nowadays, monsters are rampant everywhere, and evil cults are emerging frequently. The officials of prefectures, cities and counties are busy with their own affairs, so how can they take care of the people? Laiyang Prefecture is still relatively good, but the counties under the jurisdiction of other prefectures are full of refugees..."

As she spoke, she continued with a hint of jealousy in her tone: "You are just taken care of too well by Brother Shen, and you don't care about worldly things."

That being said.

But Ling Yuer couldn't help thinking in her heart, even if Big Brother Shen dotes on you, you don't know how to cherish it. I'm afraid you won't be able to get the blood essence bead condensed by Big Brother Shen.

Think of this.

She felt much more balanced.

Lian Nishang exclaimed, "Doesn't the dynasty care?"

Ling Yuer sneered, "Sister Nishang, didn't you learn about the history of the Spring and Autumn Period in school? Whenever monsters were rampant, the dynasty was basically out of control. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you this. You should just focus on killing monsters."

Lian Nishang naturally heard the contempt in Ling Yuer's words, but she didn't care. She pouted her red lips and said, "Sister Yuer is right. Nishang really doesn't understand these things. As long as she kills more monsters, I think she will change."

Ling Yuer really wanted to say that it was impossible to kill all the monsters, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips, because killing more monsters was indeed useful. Apart from other things, just within the area of ​​Laiyang Prefecture, the fourth-level and third-level monsters that had appeared in the past six months were killed by Lian Nishang and there were only a few left.

The other members of the Demon Suppression Bureau behind them remained silent.

As early as when they were hunting monsters, these people had noticed that the two of them were not getting along. Lian Nishang was okay, but Ling Yuer was always competing with Lian Nishang, and sometimes they would even say a few words to her.

Return to the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Complete the task.

Ling Yuer went to get the materials.

Lian Nishang ran to Shen Ping in the mansion and said aggrievedly, "Brother Shen, am I too useless..."

She repeated what Ling Yuer had said.

The corner of Shen Ping's mouth twitched. This Spirit Butterfly Fairy King was quite jealous. He would have to hit him hard with his whip when he got back.

"Everyone has their own strengths. Nichang, you are good at killing monsters. Ling Yuer has lived in the capital since she was a child. Her family is well-off and she is engaged in business. She has been exposed to all walks of life. She must know more than you and I, so you don't have to compare with her. For those of us who have awakened our bloodlines, the most important thing is our cultivation strength. When you break through to the fifth level, or even the stronger star level, you can help the people more."

He comforted.

Lian Nishang's eyes lit up, "Brother Shen is right. Only when we are strong can we do more."

"Hehe, Brother Shen is still the best."

Look at the girl smiling happily.

Shen Ping reached out his hand to check the round curve of the Qilin suit's chest, "Nichang, I haven't seen you for more than a month. It seems to be a little bigger here. Do you miss me often at night?"

Lian Nishang still can't stand being amused.

After just a few massages, the girl's cheeks were flushed and her skin was hot.

"Shen, Brother Shen, I, I just came back and haven't showered yet, so I'll go back first."

Having said that, he ran away.

Shen Ping laughed in silence, but he was not in a hurry. Anyway, this girl could not escape from his palm. Besides, there was another girl who needed to improve. He had to keep an eye on her first. At the very least, he had to clear her meridians so that she could fully adapt to her strengths.

night.

Inside the small courtyard.

Warm up your body.

Ling Yuer raised her watery eyes, looked at Shen Ping while practicing the silent meditation. This skill was not easy to master, as it required not only patience but also breathing techniques.

a long time.

Her face flushed and she finally let out a breath.

Shen Ping smiled and said, "Not bad, you have made some progress. Although you are still a little bit clumsy, practice makes perfect. I will practice more often in the future."

"Turn around. I'm going to teach you how to do horse stance now."

I stood in the horse stance for half an hour.

This time of preaching and training has just ended.

While taking a bath.

Shen Ping reminded him, "Remember to comb your hair into two ponytails next time. This will help you practice horse stance, understand?"

Ling Yuer nodded repeatedly.

very good.

Seeing that she was so sensible and well-behaved, I didn't mention the quarrel with Lian Nishang. As long as she knew the limits, it would be fine.

Tsk tsk.

At this time, Shen Ping raised his hand and grabbed the air, and the power of the stars enveloped him, "Do you feel it?"

Ling Yuer was surprised and asked: "Brother Shen, this, this is star energy?"

Anyone who has experienced school teaching knows about star energy. This is something that must be mastered to advance from the bloodline to the star realm. Generally speaking, only in the state capital can one find the method to master it. This is also the main reason why the star realm cannot be born in the prefectural capital and county town.

"good."

See Shen Ping nodded.

Ling Yuer seemed to have thought of something, and her cherry-red lips opened wide, "Brother Shen has made a breakthrough, has he reached the Star Realm?"

"It's just the Star Level, what's so difficult about it!"

"Brother Shen is so awesome."

"I knew that following Brother Shen would be the right thing to do."

Ling Yuer was extremely excited, this was the Star Realm, a legendary strong man who started out as a garrison general and could continue to inherit the family for more than five hundred years.

Her biggest goal is just to become a general.

"As long as you work hard and make progress, I believe you can also reach the Star Realm."

Shen Ping gave him some chicken soup.

Ling Yuer nodded repeatedly, her face full of excitement, "As long as she follows Brother Shen, Yuer will be able to make progress."

This girl is very smart.

He was able to cultivate to the level of Immortal King before his reincarnation.

So he carefully checked the blood concentration in his body. In just half a year, he had reached the late third level. This speed was really not slow. You should know that other talented students at the same level had not even reached the middle third level.

Moreover, it usually takes four to five years for even the most talented students to advance from the third level to the fourth level.

"By the way, Brother Shen, I heard from Li Yi and Ji Yun that many students in the academy want to go out monster hunting with Sister Nishang, but the three lieutenant generals disagreed."

"Some of these students have long exceeded their age, but have never received any missions. And now monsters are rampant and there are many of them. I don't know why the lieutenant general is suppressing them."

If students want to improve quickly, participating in monster hunting is the best way. The risk is great, but each monster hunting can accumulate experience, and not only can they earn money, but also rewards from the Monster Suppression Bureau.

Of course Shen Ping knew the purpose of the three lieutenant generals Hong, Yu and Chen, which was nothing more than to suppress them, wear them down, and then win them over a little bit so that they would be loyal to him.

This method is too common.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

This is true throughout history, both in China and abroad.

After all, training this group of guys is not of much help to the lieutenant general. Only when they become his own subordinates and become his own talents will he spend energy and resources on them.

Just like Ling Yuer, if she hadn't taken the initiative to improve, even if she had ten special physical conditions, she would not have been able to get Shen Ping's help so quickly.

"You want me to help?"

Ling Yuer hummed, "I have an okay relationship with them. If Big Brother Shen helps, they will definitely be willing to follow Big Brother Shen and become your subordinates. Now the imperial dynasty's control over the states and prefectures is not as good as before. Add to that the monsters, evil spirits and cults, and there is a high possibility of chaos. We must prepare early."

Shen Ping couldn't help but glance at her. He didn't expect that this girl had such a broad vision. Without a certain amount of experience, it would be impossible to see through the world situation. Most people are in the game and don't know the true face of Mount Lu.

"Pick a few with good potential and I'll go monster hunting with you guys. If Admiral Hong asks about it, just say I arranged it."

"OK."

…

late at night.

Shen Ping did not stay overnight in the small courtyard. Instead, he came to the wilderness, sat cross-legged in the air, and activated his devouring talent. Suddenly, the star power from the stars rushed towards him like a tide, and his body seemed to be swallowing like a whale, absorbing it madly.

These six months.

He practices every two days.

The power of the bloodline increased extremely quickly. The newly appeared wood bloodline was now about to break through the acupoints and reach the star realm. The original thunder bloodline had even broken through five acupoints, and if it broke through two more, it would be able to rise to the middle stage of the star realm.

boom.

The absorption and transformation of massive amounts of star power immediately caused the wood bloodline to surge, and with almost no guidance, it rushed into the nodes and acupoints in the bloodline on its own.

Shen Ping was already familiar with this process, and there was no bottleneck at all.

Several hours.

Easily break through.

Breakthrough in the Wood Element Star Realm.

Just as he felt the power of his bloodline, the acupoints of the two bloodlines were actually connected together, forming a fragmentary picture of the stars.

Shen Ping was stunned. He looked up at the sky full of stars and suddenly understood something. Could it be that the bloodline of the body was the hidden great opportunity? And it required multiple bloodlines? Thinking back to the many books he had read, it seemed that in this world, there had appeared a peak strongman with five bloodlines in one body. He suppressed this world for 10,000 years, but later he fell in the long river of time.

The remaining three bloodlines at most.

Now it seems that it is very likely that one must possess all the power of blood to complete the incomplete map of the stars.

For others, this is difficult, almost impossible.

The powerful man who suppressed the country for ten thousand years did not possess all the bloodline.

But it was not difficult for Shen Ping.

"No rush, let's try to find some outstanding women with potential later."

He is not the type of person who will not recognize anyone until he pulls up his pants.

The next morning.

Shen Ping strolled around the Demon Suppression Bureau and punched in, then prepared to return to his mansion. As a lieutenant general, he rarely had to take action. He usually came to the Demon Suppression Bureau purely to kill time. Other lieutenants generals needed to spend most of their time practicing, but he didn't. An hour of devouring and refining the power of the stars and other natural treasures was enough.

As soon as he reached the gate, Lieutenant General Chen caught up with him and invited him to Huayue Tower, a famous den of indulging in women in the city.

The girls here are pretty, charming, enchanting, pure, dignified, cold, arrogant and coquettish... There are servants with all kinds of personalities, and they sell their art but not their bodies. Of course, that is for other customers, like lieutenant generals, captains, and the masters of the mansion, etc., for which they naturally have to sell their labor.

One look at Brigadier General Chen's actions.

Shen Ping knew that the other party was a man of temperament, but before the latter opened his mouth, he raised his glass and said, "If the lieutenant general wants to win me over, forget it. I am only interested in cultivation, and nothing else."

Lieutenant General Chen was speechless. "Sir Shen, since you are so persistent in cultivation, you should know that you need a method to break through the Star Realm."

"Master Chen, don't worry about that."

Shen Ping drank the wine and glanced at the girls around him, "Let them all go down."

Although they all have good figures, he is not interested in their sweet lips. There is no way, as his taste is still very high now.

Lieutenant General Chen had no other choice but to say, "Sir Shen, to be honest, the world is about to change. The imperial dynasty is gradually losing control over the local areas. It won't be long before the governors of each state will completely control the local areas. At that time, whether it is resources, skills, or treasures, the governors will have the final say."

"Sir Shen doesn't ask for a technique, but he must be looking for treasures and resources. Besides, if that time really comes, no one can escape unscathed."

Shen Ping smiled and said, "So, there is a garrison-level official standing behind Lieutenant General Chen?"

"good."

"I have the support of Jin, the governor of the state capital, and the famous families of the prefectural city and the state capital. As long as Lord Shen is willing to join, I will definitely make you a governor. Even moving up to the next level may not be impossible."

I was moved by what Admiral Chen said.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ping was not interested. "We'll see when the time comes. Let's drink. Let's drink."

This little episode did not affect Shen Ping's mood, but it did serve as a reminder to him.

The increasing number of refugees in the city is a precursor to unrest. Judging from previous historical trajectories, it will be completely chaotic in a hundred years at most.

To this.

He was not surprised.

Reincarnation is not for a large number of animal spirits to come here to enjoy and experience a second life. All opportunities must be found in turmoil. Only in this kind of world of great contention will various changes occur.

"Cults, monsters, noble families, and those with hidden conspiracy ambitions... I just don't know who will have the last laugh. But it has nothing to do with me. No, it is somewhat related. I have to confirm whether my guess is correct and whether the vaguely related acupoint star map is the real opportunity!"

Shen Ping thought about it carefully and felt that his strength was still not enough. The Great Xia Dynasty had been established for a thousand years, and there must be many old monsters. These guys were stirring up trouble behind the scenes, and their strength was not simple. At the very least, they had bloodline cultivation above the Star Realm.

"It is better to continue staying in the capital city first, and wait until you reach the late stage of the Star Realm before going to the state capital."
