the fastest!>Three more breaths passed, and then a gaunt old man stepped into the courtyard where blood energy coalesced.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!> Yet it was...After a single war, Yang nation was defeated. Yang territory was incorporated into the map of Qi state. Dingyao and Pingxi counties lost most of their significance as border counties.

As the elite troops of the State of Qi, the Autumn Killing Army represented one in nine soldiers. It was impossible for them to stay stationed at Yangdi for long. Their return was also a way to prevent panic among other nations bordering Yangdi.

And Ding Yuan, the border troops of Pingxi County were transferred in large numbers to Yang land.

>

The majority of Yang Guo's capable soldiers had been slaughtered, and for a decade there would be no force left to rebel. This is why Qi Guo felt comfortable employing former Yang court officials like Huang Yi Xing.

If after ten years, the Yang land still cannot be completely subdued, then these pacification envoys would have no purpose in existing.

Ten miles outside of Qingyang Town, two riders vanished into the dust on the official road.

Although both Jiang Wang and Chong Xuan had achieved the Transcendent Dragon Realm cultivation, flying through the air was effortless for them. However, for long journeys, a horse with a mixed demonic beast bloodline was still a more reliable choice.

This is a test.

Heading to Linzi, I wonder what awaits us. Chong Xuan is no ordinary opponent, and we can't afford to underestimate him. We must remain at our peak, prepared for anything.

Demon beasts are rare, and a fully formed demon beast is equivalent to a Qi-Opening Pill. Therefore, the price of these horses with mixed demon beast bloodlines is also high. Now that Chong Xuan's prestige is different, he can temporarily use them in the Yang Realm. He summoned two of them.

>

If it is already equal to a demonic beast's steed, then it is even more priceless, far exceeding the value of an Opening Meridian Pill.

Two riders sped past, and from the forest beside the road emerged a man with a gleaming bald head.

However, it was Master Jingli who cleansed the temple.

He scratched his head a little awkwardly: "Master said that monks and nuns should be compassionate and forgiving, not argue with people face-to-face. If you're offended, just swallow your anger."

“But this fat man has coaxed all of the junior disciples to accompany him, so I have no way to get revenge now.”

He hung his head in shame, tucking the ragged sack back into his hands.

Yet it is said that Jiang Wang and Chong Xuan rode side by side, their horses never stopping. They traveled through counties and prefectures at the fastest speed, arriving in Linzi.

As the capital of Qi, Linzi was undoubtedly the foremost city in the eastern region.

Regardless of the surrounding region, the city of Linzi alone spans an area of over three hundred and twenty li!

What is the concept

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

To be known, the entire Zhuang State only encompassed three thousand li of land. Of course, with the nation's growing strength, its territory has expanded, but it has never exceeded four thousand li.

And Linzi, merely a city itself, exceeded in size that of one kingdom out of every ten during past times.

There is a colloquial saying in the Eastern regions: "One doesn't know how high a city wall is until one reaches it, and one doesn't know how insignificant oneself is until one stands beneath the city."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That refers to Linzi.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If you speak of Linzi, you cannot avoid crossing the Zi River.

The so-called Linzi, literally means "east of the Zi River."

The Zi River is approximately the only major river in the world that is not part of the Chang River system.

As mentioned before, the river is called "a vast inland sea" and also "mother river," "ancestral river," and "source of the inland rivers."

The world's great rivers and lakes are deeply connected to the Yangtze River.

While the Zi River stands alone, a vast expanse of water flowing eastward into the sea, separated from other river systems.

Let's not talk about the Zi River for now.

With its massive size, Linzi City had as many as one hundred and eight city gates.

Many people who live in this city may not even know where these city gates are located.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Zhong Xuan Sheng led Jiang Wang into the city through the Xinmen gate.

The 108 city gates of Linzi were named after various virtues and concepts, such as "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trustworthiness," "skills, strategies, punishment, teachings, fame," and so on. There was a great variety.

This embodies a strong spirit of inclusiveness.

Standing beneath the walls of Linzi City, one can't help but wonder: could such a magnificent city have been built by human hands

A person stands beneath the city, unable to see its ends in either direction. In fact, when this massive city first appears on one's horizon, it is only possible to see a single cross-section of it.

Unless a superhuman flies to the sky and uses their utmost vision, it is difficult to see the whole picture.

The slate-gray stones of the city wall emanated an aura of impregnability. The intricate patterns etched onto each stone were a sight to behold.

It's hard to believe that anyone could ever conquer the mighty city of Linzi head-on. Even if Qi State were to be utterly defeated one day, it would still be a monumental task for any army to take this fortress by force.

The layout of the entire city of Linzi, except for those elderly relatives within the royal family surnamed Jiang, probably few people could tell.

The identity of Chong Xuan Sheng goes without saying, and Jiang Wang also holds a noble title. He simply stored his fine steed outside the city and had no trouble entering.

As soon as I entered the city of Linzi, it was like plunging into a sea of people. Everywhere I looked, there were throngs of people, packed tightly together.

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

There's a word called "shoulder to shoulder," and when I got to Linzi, I realized just how accurate it is.

Jiang Wang traveled eastward for tens of thousands of miles, passing through numerous countries and sects, but he had never seen such a prosperous place.

If not for the fact that his and Chong Xuan's cultivation bases were both extraordinary, there might have been a risk of them scattering.

What is meant by "a vast sea of people"

As soon as he entered the crowd, Jiang Wang's sword intent surged. The Heaven, Earth, and Man Three Swords, the third sword was precisely amidst this vast sea of people. How could one achieve perfection without experiencing such a surge of humanity

Cultivation truly requires insight.

Ginger looked and pondered as she walked forward with Chong Xuan Sheng.

All the way here to Linzi, neither men nor horses have stopped for a moment. The eagerness in Chong Xuan's heart is evident.

But when they arrived at Linzi City, he didn't go straight to the Ju Bao Merchant Guild. Instead, he took Jiang Wang into a luxurious inn first.

“The more eager you are, the less you should let your opponent see your eagerness.” Chongxuan Sheng said this to Jiang Wang.

This inn was not his own home in Linzi, nor was it his property in Linzi.

Have people pre-book an inn in Linzi, it is to cover up the wind—it is certainly not possible to completely cover it up, but covering it for a moment is a moment.

After changing into appropriate clothing, they washed away the dust and grime of their journey. They also took the time to prepare some wine and dishes.

Only then did Chong Xuan decide to go out.

Unlike other businesses, this one thrives on the hustle and bustle of a crowded, lively atmosphere.

The headquarters of the Treasure Chamber of Commerce is located in the most prosperous area in the west of the city, right at the corner.

To say that many people from Linzi are familiar with this architectural complex, resembling a treasure trove, would be an understatement. But getting into this “treasure trove” is not so easy.

Of course, Chongxuan Sheng Duan wouldn't be stopped outside the treasure pot. Even though the two sides had actually broken their cooperation and might even become enemies.

The one who came to receive us was Cheng Shi, the deputy head of the Treasure Pavilion Merchants Association.

The entire Pau Bao Chamber of Commerce will be presided over by the main host, and there will only be two deputy hosts. It can be said that the hospitality is not grand.

But as for Chong Xuan...

This fat man was wearing a plain blue long robe. Of course, the finely woven Lian Yun silk subtly revealed its luxurious nature.

And he sat there, brazenly taking up all the space on the seat, with absolutely no attempt at being modest.

A guest, when visiting, is as much the host as one would expect.

The middle-aged woman across from him was about to take a seat.

He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Master Su, why are you ashamed to see an old friend"

Cheng Shiyi's eyes held fine lines at the corners, yet still retained an air of elegance. His every move was captivating. To have taken the position of vice-chairman in the esteemed Jùbǎoshāng Hui, he naturally wouldn't be easily intimidated by someone like Chong Xuan Sheng.

Upon hearing the sound, Wen Sheng first glanced at Jiang Wang: "I've long been acquainted with the heroic Chong Xuan Gongzi of General Jian Jiang. This handsome young man is a first-time encounter. I presume he is the young hero who captured the Ji Clan's battle flag"

Jiang Wang wore a frost-colored martial robe today, the material was also of good quality. Her medium-length hair was simply tied up in a bun, making her look neat and decisive.

A person's appearance can greatly influence how others perceive them. Dressing well certainly adds to one's air of strength and confidence.

At this time, silence sat beside him. Confidence was hidden in his eyebrows and eyes, his bearing was impressive without being ostentatious. He had a certain air about him.

Hearing Cheng Shi's words, he only smiled faintly and pretended not to hear.

Even if he were rarely complimented as handsome, even if the woman complimenting him were this alluring – one must know that the word "handsome" never belonged to him before. It was still the heavy Xuan who made him shine. If he invited Lian Que to join them another day, I imagine he'd be three points more handsome!

His meaning was very clear——

No matter who you are, no matter how beautiful you are. Answer Chongxuan Sheng's question first, and then I will talk to you.
