Chapter 174: Punishment

With Tian Anping present, he knew his pride would be impossible to salvage.

Actually, under the circumstances where Li Fengyao made it clear that he would support Jiang Wang, the gains and losses of provoking a fight needed to be re-evaluated.
Under the circumstances of Tian Anping's absence, respecting the rules of Qixinggu is understandable. After all, compared to Tian Anping, he is the one who respects the "greater good."
But these are just self-comforting words, not strong enough.
If he could withstand Jiang Wang's sword, he wouldn't have the chance to be ridiculed. If he were stronger than Tian Anping, he wouldn't have left in disgrace just now.
He is already strong, but he is far from enough.
All his men were guarding outside Qixing Valley. They had originally put on a grand show, ready to welcome him back in triumph. Now, of course, they could only take down all those showy decorations to avoid angering Young Master Lei further.
Lei Zhan occupied the carriage, his face grim.
“I want all of Jiang Wang’s information.”
He closed his eyes, as if trying to suppress all his anger, then instructed, "Also, send someone to check on this name, Zhang Linchuan. See if there's anyone by that name."
At the beginning of the Life and Death Chess Tournament, a team like the Qihuo Department, with an outsider on their side, naturally drew attention from other competitors. However, the name "Zhang Linchuan" was truly unfamiliar, and as a result, it was overlooked by many people.
Now, of course, we know that was just Jiang Wang's alias.
“Jiang Wang has used this name before. If it's just a random alias, check when and where this name appeared. If there really is someone with that name, Jiang Wang must know them. Conversely, that person should also be very familiar with Jiang Wang's past. Starting from this clue, if we can find the person, bring them directly to me.”
The subordinates obeyed naturally, and the carriage smoothly drove away into the distance.
In Qixing Valley, Tian Anping did not stop Lei Zhanyan from leaving.

He just stood there motionless, as if deep in thought.
In fact, regarding Tian Anping's arrival, Tian Huanzhang, who was in charge of guarding Qixing Valley this time, was also very puzzled. Maintaining order and family honor, these things really didn't seem like something Tian Anping would do.
Don't talk about the bigger picture.
If Tian Anping had any concept of the "big picture," he wouldn't have, at the opening of the Qixing Secret Realm, without knowing anyone, recklessly seized the power of the Seven Stars, nearly making the Tian family and half of Qi State enemies. Afterwards, there wasn't even an explanation.
As the person in charge of this Qi-Star Secret Realm, Tian Huanzhang naturally had some resentment in his heart.
Being in charge of this sort of thing doesn't offer many benefits. If something goes wrong, everyone will come looking for him. When it comes time to take responsibility, who can possibly turn Tian Anping over
>
As for the fight between the Lei family, Li family, and Chongxuan family, he planned to wait until they were nearly exhausted before intervening to maintain order. Of course, he couldn't just watch one of Lei Zhanyan or Li Fengyao die in Qixing Valley, but letting them deepen their hatred might not be a bad thing for the Tian family after all.
Tian Huanzhang felt that he had a long-term vision, and of course he was very dissatisfied with Tian Anping's "shortsightedness."
He flew down the valley and landed in front of Tian Anping.

"Anping, how did you come here"
But the voice was incredibly kind and gentle. In stark contrast to his inner feelings.
Earlier, when the Qi of the Seven Stars was intercepted, he dared to act haughty and elderly during conversations, opening with harsh interrogations. Now, standing face-to-face, an unprecedented gentleness involuntarily surfaced in his demeanor.
Although I am filled with resentment.
Tian Anping didn't respond, instead he just looked around the cultivators in the valley with a hint of confusion: "Aren't you leaving"
He pressed, "Are you staying for dinner"
"No, no, no, Master Tian is too polite."
"Farewell, farewell."
Out of pity for them, most people haven't left because Tian Anping hasn't said it's okay to go. They don't know whether they should leave or if leaving directly would anger him.
>While few, such as Jiang Wuxie and Li Fengyao, were unafraid, they wanted to take the opportunity to observe Tian Anping. After all, this person has always been famous, but rarely appears in public. Because of that incident back then, he was forbidden to leave Dazze County. But even within the city, few people could see him. It was known that he had been living in seclusion in Fu Bi Building for years, and no one knew what he was doing.
But no matter what kind of psychology he had, since Tian Anping had spoken these words, then no one would stay.
Who would want to have dinner with Tian Anping!
Even if Tian's cooking smells delicious, it's not worth risking your life to try it.
At that time, the cultivators all scattered.
Jiang Wang had a hunch in his heart. Tian Anping's appearance might be related to the failure of the Tian family army in the hidden star world. But he certainly wouldn't show anything different, and he didn't even glance at Tian Chang or Tian He.

To play mind games and have some unspoken understanding under someone like Tian Anping's nose is to invite a swift and clean end.
He left with Li Fengyao, while Xiaotong and Qihe were still waiting at the inn.

As for Jiang Wu Xie, he didn't know why, but he followed them eagerly, like a shadow.
What a shameless person. Jiang Wang muttered in her heart.
Only after everyone else had left did Tian Anping shift his gaze, his eyes falling on Tian Chang.
... thud.
Tian Chang knelt directly on both knees, kneeling without hesitation, without the slightest thought of dignity.
"This expedition to the secret realm was a failure, and Tian Chang is solely responsible!"
>
Tian Anping's expression was slightly curious as he slowly said, "You left the Qixing world, and your first thing wasn't to come to Fu Bi Lou to report, but to hide in Qixing Valley and not show yourself. You're looking for connections all over the world. How could you think that anyone in the Tian family could protect you"
“Young Master Ping, I assure you, I meant no harm! I was badly injured while escaping the Hidden Star World and had to stop to recover.”
As he spoke, he unbuttoned his outer garment. Layer upon layer of gauze wrapped around his chest and abdomen, soaked crimson with blood. He looked like someone pulled out from a pool of blood.
If you don't believe me, come and check my wounds!
"Alas, what are you doing" Tian Huanzhang couldn't help but speak. "There's no such thing as a sure win in this world. There's always a possibility of failure when doing things. Whatever you've encountered and experienced, you can talk about it. We can figure out which responsibilities belong to you and which ones aren't your fault. Our Tian family doesn't have the principle of punishing clan members without distinguishing right from wrong."
“Uncle,” Tian Anping’s voice was heavy.
Tian Huanzhang, of course, wasn't his biological uncle, but it was perfectly fine to address him as such out of respect.
It can be seen that he was almost moved to tears, but he forcibly suppressed his emotions.
From voice to expression, every detail is in line with the image of a loyal and responsible man from a respectable family.
He began to speak, his heart heavy with sorrow: "After we entered the world of Seven Stars, we followed Master Ping's orders..."

Splash!
Tian Anping raised a hand, his shackles clanging.
He signaled Tian Chang to keep quiet.
"You are a truly intelligent person."
Tian Anping said: “Therefore, I won’t examine your injuries, and I won’t listen to your explanation.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Because Tian Chang is a truly intelligent person.
So no matter how much responsibility he needs to take for this, he can definitely wriggle out of it and make it seem like he had nothing to do with it.
Tian Anping didn't need to listen, he knew Tian Chang's explanation would be fine.
In other words, if Tian Chang couldn't confirm that his explanation was flawless, he should have defected long ago. Instead of staying in Qixing Valley, he waited for Tian Anping to come looking for him.
"You and those still alive will go to the Valley of Forgetfulness. The others, three days. You, a month." Tian An said calmly.
His response was also very simple.
Since we can't determine Tian Chang's responsibility, let him take it all.
Tian Chang's face instantly paled!ng on a tall steed, in green robes with a sword at his waist, Jiang Wang gazed out. As far as his eyes could see, there was only a sea of black people.Let me know if you have anything else you'd like...
