Among the voices between the court and the common people, there are those who say Jiang Wang is the next generation’s War God. Jiang Mengxiong himself neither agrees nor disagrees, but he knows that the Son of Heaven may have this intention. He has taken on five personal disciples, each cultivated with care, all considered dragons and phoenixes among men, but none has received such recognition.
As a banner for the new people of Qi, Jiang Wang has, in just a few short years, garnered so much recognition, support, and even worship from many people. One must say, he possesses a unique personal charm.
Even Jiang Mengxiong himself acknowledges this Marquis Wu’an. Although, most of the time, he’s somewhat wooden in personality, not lively enough, and upon looking, doesn’t seem like a young person. But with diligence, effort, and sincerity, apart from being barren in military strategy and limited in knowledge, he has no major shortcomings.
Becoming the next generation War God is unlikely, but matching the current power is not without a chance—speaking of which, this was the path set for himself by the closed-door disciple, Wang Yiwu.
That kid says, "No need to learn to fight like an army; I am invincible among millions." Now, however, Jiang Wang has distanced himself... He believes in Wang Yiwu’s confidence and courage, but if this time Jiang Wang cannot return, how is he to defeat someone who can no longer be defeated?
What makes Jiang Mengxiong increasingly baffled, even somewhat inexplicable, is the current situation in Wu An City.
Initially, it was because Xi Yue An sent two God Arrives, one of whom is close to Dongzhen; it’s a puppet body re-cultivation, a unique method, yet not really important. Sect monks’ training, wherever they train is fine, no? Wu An City as a newly opened race battlefield, attracting some cultivators who just entered the Monster Realm, is also reasonable. He, Jiang Mengxiong, need not concern himself with this.
But the "Person in the Painting" from Xi Yue An, who had long not set foot in the world, surprisingly sent a rare personal letter, hoping he would look after the two Xi Yue An disciples on the battlefield!
Such a favor must be reciprocated...
Later, Ye Lingxiao from Yun Country, who was both wealthy and considered capable, brought his daughter over for training... This does carry some weight.
Though Yun Country is not considered a major nation, it holds to neutrality and is commercially prosperous, having significant influence among many small countries. More so, Ye Lingxiao is no ordinary True Man, with no limits set for the future.
Wenren Shen, adept with long sleeves, has enough status; let him handle the welcomes.
Later on, Helian Xiaohu from Mu Country brought Mu Country Princess Helian Yunyun and that Zhao Rucheng along.
The problem then became rather significant.
Though anyone can die on the battlefield of Celestial Prison, Helian Yunyun holds an esteemed position, and if something truly happened in Wu An City, it would inevitably affect diplomatic ties between Qi and Mu!
Furthermore, that Zhao Rucheng, whose identity is also sensitive, is a descendant of Emperor Huai. It’s hard to say that with him coming to the Celestial Prison battlefield, Qin People would have no thoughts about it.
According to intelligence, now this kid is highly valued by the Empress of Mu Country. With excellent literary and martial talents and a genius for cultivation, staying in Eardemi for eight months, he’s being groomed as a future Marshal. Of course, his complex identity is likely one of the reasons why the Empress treasures him, potentially playing an unknown role in the future. In any case, very important.
If this kid quietly suffered something by the Qin People...
Needless to say, it would again affect the diplomatic ties between Qi and Mu...
Although he personally guards the area, guessing that Gan Xie wouldn’t dare act recklessly, it so happens among the three True Monarchs currently on duty in Suiming City, one is from Qing Country. His name is Qin Changsheng, known as the "Sword Lunatic."
This one True Monarch, one True Man, if truly bent on stirring trouble, would be hard to guard against.
As for Jiang Mengxiong personally, he is inherently proud, looking down on the world, too lazy to mind others. But as the National Guardian Marshal of the Great Qi Empire, within this large city range of Qi Country, these people he must manage...
Thinking back to when he, Jiang Mengxiong, with a fist destroyed Frost Wind Valley, angrily smashed Yuan Xianting, how awe-imposing, brutal! How is it that after just a few days’ pause, it’s requests, connections, turning into a guard of sorts? Watching over this child, watching over that child, the selfless killing fist, not a problem to destroy heaven and earth, yet spending all day merely watching over children!
A fist to protect children?
Yet compared to all these family-bringing, muddled arrivals at Wu An City for unknown reasons.
The most significant, however, was a person who came alone to this place.
This person flew across the Civilization Basin, with light spreading brightly several thousand miles, directly flying from a large city overlooked by Chu Country—
Duke of the Great Chu Huai State, Zuo Xiao, personally arrived at the Hell World, personally arrived at Wu An City!
This is a senior among seniors, a veteran among veterans, even someone as disregarding of others as Jiang Mengxiong must personally welcome him!
"Lord Zuo!" Upon sensing the old Duke’s presence, Jiang Mengxiong ended his distant confrontation with Yuan Xianting, descending personally outside Wu An City to greet with respect: "What brings you personally? Jiang someone truly fails in welcoming from afar!"
...
The Sky Sloth Wilderness, the South Celestial City tower.
Yuan Xianting raised an eyebrow: "It seems like another True Monarch is coming from the other side, conspiring with Jiang Mengxiong... It’s Zuo Xiao!"
"Zuo Xiao from Chu Country?!" Zhu Yi was startled, immediately turning to look.
"An old stubborn one, what’s to fear?" Yuan Xianting’s five fingers spread, and the giant battle halberd was already in hand as he coldly snorted: "Nothing more than killing one who comes! Kill one, if two come, kill both—"
Zhu Yi had already said: "I’ll immediately send a message to Qi Guanying to come."
"Good."
...
With Jiang Mengxiong’s temperament, he would indeed respect Zuo Xiao’s status, prestige, and cultivation, but would never just for these reasons show such courtesy.
What made him respectful was Zuo Xiao’s lifelong campaigns, creating countless legends.
