Chapter Twenty-Three: Nine Cities' Purge, Diligent and
be ranked as far behind as possible. For example, if there were still forty people fighting in the Qixing Lou Secret Realm at that time, then the person who left the Qixing Lou Secret Realm first woul...The joint investigation by Qi Jing and the two sides into Jiang Wang's fall to the Frostwind Valley has now lasted for a full seven days, involving nine major human cities including Yanlao and Tieyan.
It can be said that like a fine-toothed comb, it went over hundreds of miles in every direction. Yet, that stranger who aided Mei Xue Lin to kill Jiang Wang and repel Ji Zhao Nan, remains unfound.
If a contemporary master truly intends to conceal their cultivation, it would be naturally difficult to expose them. Every master has their own legend, and concealing their abilities is not a difficult feat.
Regardless of whether it's in the real world or the civilized basin, Qi Jing is among the most powerful forces in existence. The two countries joined hands to mark out a region, and once you thoroughly investigate within it, you can say that almost any slight suspicion would be nearly impossible to conceal.
But after seven days of investigation, no results came out. This naturally gave rise to reasonable suspicion — was there really a stranger who existed
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Could it be one of the guardians of the demon realm who made a move within the nine cities There are three renowned masters currently in the open: Jing Guo True Person, Disaster-Taming Marshal Pei Xinghe, Chu Kingdom General Han Que, and Pastor Country Nobleman True Person Helin Yuyi.
Among these real individuals, Pei Xinghe's reputation precedes him. Needless to say, Han Que was the commander of Chu's right wing during the Battle of Hegu. It was his right wing that collapsed, causing a rout that reversed back into the center army, leading General Zuo Guanglie's daring raid on Phoenix Mountain to lose its strategic value. This ultimately led the entire battle down a path of irreversible carnage. He barely escaped with his life from the war. After the defeat, all his titles were stripped away, and he entered the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons, vowing to atone for his sins for the rest of his life.
He has a son named Han Li, who is friends with Xiang Bei. Jiang Wang once saw him at the Huangliang Stage in Chu State.
And Helen Yi was another contemporary hero of the Mu Kingdom royal family, a mainstay of the Great Mu imperial clan and a first cousin of the Great Mu Empress. She was also the aunt of Helen Yunyun.
During the duration of the Frostwind Valley conflict, both Han Que and Helin Yuyi were engaged on their respective battlefields, leaving absolutely no time to meddle in the affairs of Frostwind Valley.

Although Pei Xinghe was not on the battlefield, he was at that time meeting with Qin envoys—the people of Qin naturally had no obligation to cover for Jing. On the contrary, even bringing this matter out into the open showed Jing's sincerity in clearing its name and avoiding strategic misjudgments. On the Qin side, Zhenren Gan Xie, who was responsible for the Qin demon realm battlefield, also publicly stated that sending Qin envoys to Jing’s main city was about communicating on border defense issues.

No unknown real people were found, and all known real people had evidence that cleared them of suspicion.
As a result of this investigation, everything remains stagnant as before, just as we had anticipated. The mysterious mastermind behind it all has either erased their tracks or escaped long ago. Gao Ling City...
As one of the major cities in the northern part of the Civilization Basin, Gaoling City is far more imposing than Tieyan City. The two cities are about 80 miles apart as the crow flies, effectively serving as mutual bulwarks.
"Jingzong ah." Over a cup of wine, Chu Zichen, who had had a little too much to drink, asked curiously, "That Qi State Wu'an Hou who got into trouble recently, I heard he was originally from your Zhuang State" Chu Zichen, hailing from Ji State, possessed the cultivation of a Second Rank official and lacked any divine powers. It was unlikely he would ever attain them in the foreseeable future.
This is a test.
It's not as good as the new, but better than the old.
He outwardly presented himself as a talented individual from an ordinary family in the Qi nation. Through his hard work, he seized extraordinary opportunities and progressed step by step to achieve the Inner Palace realm. He now served in Gaoling City, wearing his brain on his waist, earning some cultivation resources – this was common practice for many cultivators in small nations like Qi, as Qi itself offered little opportunity for him.
However, his true identity was that of a member of the Jingguo Mirror World Platform. He had been recruited at a very young age to act as a Qi Guo cultivator and carry out intelligence operations undercover.
And at this moment, sitting opposite him and drinking with him was Qiao Jingzong, a cultivator from the Zhuang State who served within the Imperial Palace. He ranked seventh among the Eight Talented Young Men of Xin'an, a rather interesting group. At the beginning of the year, through connections in the Daoist Nation, he arrived at the Wanyan Gate and joined the service of Gaoling City. Of course, the Zhuang State was far stronger than the Ji State now. However, to make a living in the Wanyan Gate, relying on one's own strength was still far from enough. One still had to rely under the banner of the Jing Nation.
They had met on the battlefield before and were familiar with each other, but they weren't close friends. However, after a few drinks and chats together, they became friends.
Nowadays, the word "friend" doesn't hold much weight. Often, it's those who claim to be your friends who know best how to hurt you.
After a major battle, he was able to emerge unscathed. He invited Qiao Jingzong for a drink, of course, it was only natural. When the wine flowed freely and they were warmed by its heat, they naturally began to discuss the hottest topic of the moment.
Jo Jingzong was originally from Qiao Country. Unable to find opportunities in his own nation, he ventured to another country and pledged allegiance to the Ming ruler. He was indeed highly valued in Zhuang Country, even progressing further in his cultivation, breaking through to the inner palace realm. He became one of the Eight Outstanding Talents of Xin'an, ranking even above Jiang Liuyue, a native of Zhuang Country.

At this time, he just circled the wine glass, his eyes drunkenly staring at Zhu Zicheng: "What's there to say about that person"
Chu Zichen raised his cup and clinked it with him: "In the world of Heavenly Inferno, life and death are commonplace. Like people like us, how many dozens or hundreds die on the battlefield every day Who would care Throughout history, there have been countless talented individuals who met their end in Heavenly Inferno. Just like that famous general from Jing Guo before, this Wu An Hou, something happened to him in Frostwind Valley, and it caused such a stir. I'm just curious, let's chat about it casually."
Joe Jingzong took a small sip and laughed, "For God's sake, I haven't been in Zhuang Guo for long. When I went there, he was already gone. What do you think I know"
This is a test.
"Just casual chat, it doesn't have to be about what you see or know," Chu Zichen smiled and said. "Other people's opinions are fine too. Like, how do people in Zhuang Guo view him"
"What else can be done" asked Qiao Jingzong. "One can only dare to be angry but not speak out." "Oh" asked Chu Zichen. "How do you say that"
Qiao Jingzong hesitated, drawing his neck back cautiously: "I dare not speak carelessly. The people of Qi are very fierce right now. Let's not talk about this."
"Brother, this of yours has piqued my curiosity." Chu Zichen looked around and lowered his voice: "Quickly tell me! Is there anyone in the world who gets punished for idle chatter Relax a bit, Brother Qiao. What you said today, out of your mouth, into my ears, absolutely no one else will know." Qiao Jingzong refused again.
Chu Zichen persuaded again.
"Probably having had a bit too much to drink, Qiao Jingzong finally let out a grunt: "Actually, there's not much to say. You should have heard about the things that happened in Fenglin City Territory of Zhuang Nation His proclamation was quite famous. Many people in Zhuang Nation felt that he was the biggest beneficiary of what happened in Fenglin City Territory. He recently killed Zhang Linchuan and made a huge commotion, effectively eradicating the Wusheng Sect to silence him. Zhang Linchuan, like him, was from Fenglin City in Qinghe County and came from one of the three major families there. What was the predecessor of the Wusheng Sect It wasn't something else but the Bai Gu Dao!"
“This is truly amazing!”
These stale talking points of high-ranking officials from the Zhuang Kingdom, Chu Zichen naturally knew. But he still pretended to be shocked.
Please note that the " Of course, this should be a good thing.He leaned against the glazed coffin of his younger sister, twitching his lips as if trying to smile. But somehow, a chill ran down his face, and a few teardrops...
