Chapter 244: Petty Tricks
derness God Clan!"The Ancient God Clan had just brought three eighth-rank artifacts, and right after, the Heavenly Sect saw the emergence of three powerful cultivators. Even a fool could see what was..."Shen Zhen Shou is here!"
>
Although he was shocked, Ji Tianlu quickly recovered.
As for Shen Changqing's often-displayed mysterious methods, he had somewhat adapted to them.
>On the other side.
Mu Qing hadn't had time to react.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Only when Ji Tianlu spoke did he regain his composure.
"What kind of technique was Shen Zhen guarding with just now I've never heard of it before"
>
He voiced his inner doubts.
Upon hearing this, Ji Tianlu's gaze towards the other person held a touch more curiosity.
"It's just a trivial little trick called 'reducing distance,' nothing worth mentioning."
Shen Changqing waved his hand and smiled faintly.
A thousand miles are reduced to an inch.
Both of them silently muttered to themselves.
Immediately following, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
It doesn't matter how powerful this method is, just the name alone tells you a lot.
This is a test.
Ji Tianlu sighed, "I wonder who created this technique. To name it like this... As for its rank, I'm afraid it could rival the top-grade Grandmaster martial arts that Shen Zhenhou previously auctioned off!"
>
About the same.
Sheng Changqing replied vaguely.
The matter of supernatural powers, at present, no one knows.
In the eyes of others, top-grade master martial arts are the strongest martial arts currently available.
When it came to his extraordinary feats, he remained succinct, providing only brief hints without elaborating further.
Then sat down in their own place.
Shen Changqing looked at the two people: "During these days that I retreated to break through, has there been any major movement in Nanyou Mansion"
“Yes!”
Mu Qing's expression grew serious.
On hearing this.
Shen Changqing's expression didn't fluctuate much. The change in his strength had given him a lot more confidence.
He didn't reply, but waited for the other person to continue.
Several days after the natural disasters subsided, signs of an earth dragon turning over appeared again. Riverbanks burst, and floods ravaged thousands of miles.
Many ordinary people were drowned and swallowed by the flood. Although we immediately mobilized our forces to address the issue, many still perished.
The recent string of natural disasters has left the people of Nanyou Prefecture in a state of panic.
Some people took advantage of the opportunity to create trouble, spreading rumors in Nanyu Mansion, making many people restless.
Flood!
Please provide me with the text you want me to translate. I can then translate it into English and keep the HTML tags intact.
Shen Changqing's brows furrowed.
"What rumors"
“It is said that the Qin Dynasty is nearing its end, and today's calamities are a sign from heaven that the Qin Dynasty's luck has run out. Only by overthrowing the Qin Dynasty can we avoid these natural disasters!”
"Ridiculous, foolish!"
Shen Changqing smiled, but his eyes were icy cold.
It's clear that someone is trying to take advantage of this opportunity to spread rumors and incite the disaster victims to cause trouble for Nanyou Prefecture.
It doesn't matter who.
If one were to cause chaos within the Nanyou Mansion, they would be considered an enemy.
Regarding the enemy.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He has always been ruthless.
“Let all cities give their full support to rescuing the victims. If anyone takes advantage of this chaos, kill them without mercy and leave no survivors. Let others also understand that those who plot rebellion will only meet a dead end!”
Shen Changqing said coldly.
Both Mu Qing and Ji Tianlu nodded slightly.
In their eyes, anyone who wanted to take advantage of the situation to cause chaos deserved to be killed.
>
When it comes to the phrase "kind and merciful," those words have never belonged to the Demon Suppression Division.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then.
Then Shen Changqing continued, "Has the source of the natural disaster been investigated clearly"
There are currently no leads.
Mu Qing shook her head.
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long while, he finally came to his senses.
"What about the Heavenly Alliance Has it also been affected by natural disasters"
"Yes, and the natural disasters on the side of Heavenly Alliance are even more serious than those on our side."
>
>Mu Qing said.
Hearing this, Shen Changqing put aside his doubts about the Heavenly Alliance for the time being.
If the only natural disasters were happening within the Qin region and not affecting the whole world alliance, wouldn't he have to wonder if the World Alliance was secretly causing them
But now the Heavenly Alliance also has natural disasters, and they are quite serious.
Then, natural disasters should have nothing to do with the Heavenly Alliance.
Looking back on the abyss that appeared in the plain, it was indeed something beyond human capability.
"We will pursue all leads relentlessly. Natural disasters never happen for no reason, and we must not overlook any possible trace."
Shen Changqing said this.
>
He looked at the two people again.
“Your Majesty intends to lead the troops in person, do you know this”
When Shen Zhen was in seclusion, Tian Cha Wei just happened to bring the news.
Ji Tianlu nodded.
This is the translation:
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing had a meaningful smile on his face.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“It's interesting that Daliang and Dayue got this news a long time ago, while we only just received it a few days ago!”
As a force belonging to the Qin Dynasty, none of them were able to get this information first.
But instead, the news reached Daliang and Dayue, which were farther away and not part of Qin.
If you say there's nothing wrong inside, then that's definitely impossible.
Ji Tianlu said: "Any country's intelligence agency actually has its own undercover agents, but they are usually very well hidden and will not easily expose their whereabouts."
Only when encountering an emergency will the message be sent out.
Furthermore, spies from different countries use different communication methods. If it's really urgent to send a message, the Dàliáng and Dàyuè could get the news before us. It's not impossible.
Urgent message.
Even from a distance, one can arrive first.
On the contrary.
The Emperor's personal expedition to the south wasn't a particularly major event for the Southern Prefecture, so information from the Celestial Watch would be relayed somewhat slower.
Upon hearing this explanation, Shen Changqing nodded slightly.
Your Majesty, are you planning to lead the troops in person immediately, or is there only a temporary plan for now
“According to the message, he hasn't left the capital yet, but the various ministries have already started mobilizing troops. It seems that it won't be long before he truly embarks on a personal expedition!”
>
Speaking of this, Ji Tianlu's brows were also furrowed.
The emperor led the troops in person.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In his view, it was not an appropriate approach.
Especially Qin Huang, who is now the pillar of Great Qin. Even though his lifespan is nearing its end, he has not truly perished.
If the emperor personally leads the troops, unforeseen circumstances may arise.
Here's the translation: >Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If Emperor Qin were to die unexpectedly, then the entire Qin dynasty would be thrown into turmoil, possibly even collapsing.
>
It's just this one sentence.
Ji Tianlu did not say it out loud, but it existed deep within his heart.
If you were to say it out loud, it would be considered extremely treasonous.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
...was spread, and had a considerable impact on itself.
Looking at the other person's expression, Shen Changqing could vaguely understand some of their thoughts.
"Commander Ji believes that Your Majesty's current personal expedition, what is the ultimate purpose In the present situation, a personal expedition may not necessarily be a good choice!"
"Your Majesty's thoughts are unfathomable, and I cannot know too much. Perhaps if Shen Zhunshou were to inquire with the Eastern Commander, there would be some news."
Ji Tianlu couldn't help but shake his head.
He's just the head of a branch of the Demon Suppression Division, he doesn't know much about what goes on in court.
However, Dongfang Zhao remained in the capital and served as the true ruler of the Demon Suppression Division.
The Emperor personally led the expedition.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The other party can't possibly know nothing.
That's all I have to say.
After a pause, Ji Tianlu again expressed his own opinion.
In my view right now, there is no need for a personal expedition. The Zhou forces' offensive in Lu'an Prefecture has been completely contained by the arrival of the armies from Daliang and Dayue.
This is a placeholder text for example purposes.
Although the Great Wilderness Prefecture was under attack by barbarians, it has lasted this long and the barbarians haven't made much progress. I don't think there is a great threat.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
At this time, if the imperial court played steadily and cooperated with Daliang and Dayuet to suppress D Zhou, and then turned around to eliminate the barbarian forces, there would be no problem at all.
But——
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“This is just my personal opinion, Your Majesty’s desire to lead the troops in person probably has other reasons. We shouldn't interfere too much.”
In the end, he shook his head again.
Chen Changqing said: "So to speak, has an imperial decree already arrived at Nan Youfu"
"That's right, several days ago, an imperial decree arrived at the Southern Region Prefecture, mobilizing 500,000 troops to depart. The court is serious this time!"
500,000 troops!
Ji Tianlu's words gave Shen Changqing some guesses in his heart.
A mere Nan You Prefecture mobilized 500,000 troops, and then Emperor Qin himself led the expedition in person. This time, the court was clearly not just trying to stabilize the situation in Nan You Prefecture.
Then, I remembered what Bei Ming Wang had said before.
His expression became strange.
"Your Majesty, do you truly intend to directly invade the Great Zhou and destroy it in one fell swoop"
Perhaps!
Ji Tianlu sighed.
“The current Great Zhou is clearly colluding with the demon race. Destroying Great Zhou would be equivalent to severing a limb of the demons, and it would also bring numerous benefits to our human race.”
But how exactly, we can only wait and see the results.
"Hmm."
Shen Changqing nodded in acknowledgement.
Indeed.
The rest is up to the First Emperor to decide.
As the magistrate of Nan Yu Prefecture, he probably wouldn't have any chance to get involved.
The alliance has not been resolved.
Besides, there are frequent natural disasters in Nanyu Mansion.
In normal circumstances, it would also be impossible for the Southern Ghost Prefecture to offer any further support.
Five hundred thousand troops is already giving it their all.
>
When will Your Majesty set out on a personal expedition
"There's no concrete information yet, but based on the current situation, it'll likely take at least one or two months to prepare."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"Hmm."
Shén Chángqīng nodded.
“I will address the disaster in Nanyou Mansion first, and then we can discuss other matters. As for the imbalance within the Heavenly Alliance, there is nothing we can do about it for now.”
The three of them discussed briefly.
Then, Mu Qing and Ji Tianlu left the main hall, and Shen Changqing also returned to his small courtyard.
>Seeing him suddenly appear.
Tian Kui had conveyed his meaning.
"Master, I'm hungry—"
Looking at the huge and terrifying beast in front of him, directly sitting there like a big dog wagging its tail, Shen Changqing's heart was speechless.
When in public, Tian Kui certainly had a presence.
Here's the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But behind closed doors, it's really indescribable.
He squeezed out a drop of ordinary blood, and didn't dilute it any further. He directed it straight towards the Tian Kui Bomb.
Feeling the surging power contained within that drop of fresh blood, Tian Kui's eyes lit up with excitement. He couldn't wait to open his mouth and swallow it whole.
Next.
It lay on the ground, beginning to digest slowly.
Seeing this, Shen Changqing did not disturb.
After attaining the perfection of his golden body, even a single drop of his blood would contain power equivalent to that of a master at the late stage.
Although Tian Kui had already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm, it still took time to digest such fresh blood.s point, even blaming the other party would be pointless.>For a long time.An old-school deity sighed, "Speaking too much at this point is pointless. The saying 'everything that rises must fall' is a t...
