Su Sheng said: "Don't worry about the mechanisms, I will go take a look later. In these years, you guys should speed up the construction process."
"If my guess is right, the North Li Dynasty Emperor will soon feel the need to ask for a hostage from your Western Garrison Marquisate!"
Bai Li Cheng Feng's pupils shrank: "Sir, do you mean that the Emperor is wary of our Western Garrison Marquisate and will take action against us?"
Su Sheng: "Isn't this an inevitable event? You and Wen Hu Jiu have both broken through to new realms, and your families are in-laws. How can one tolerate others sleeping on the couch of a dragon?
However, you don't need to worry too much. Is Tianqi City prosperous? It is called the City of Ten Thousand Cities, a city that gathers all the glory of the world.
But the more charming something is, the easier it is to shatter. In the eyes of some, Tianqi City is composed of thirty-two music pavilions, sixty-four wine bars, the greatest gambling arena where thousands of gold are wagered, and the most magnificent tower in North Li, the Chang Yu Tower.
However, in reality, Tianqi City is composed of an Imperial Palace, three Prince's Mansions, five supervisory offices, the Astronomical Observatory, the Marquisate of Huai Yu, the six departments of the Ministry of Officials, the Grand Tutor's Mansion, the Shadow Sect hidden in the shadows, and the Imperial Guards stationed outside the city.
Why is this? Because behind North Li's prosperity is the most ferocious and valiant barbaric tribe. They live in a desolate land, where they cannot get enough food. Every winter, hundreds of thousands of people die. They are eyeing North Li.
They have been preparing to go south for many years. As for our south, Nan Jue, they have been harassing us constantly. Before, their court was unstable, and Nan Cheng was quiet. Now, things are different!
And what about North Li? The most valiant general was exterminated, and the most powerful military marquis was banished far away from the court!
The Emperor Tai An is old, and his three sons are incompetent. The eldest son is incompetent, the Qing King is ruthless, and the Xiao Ruofeng brothers are of humble origins.
Tianqi City can be easily conquered!
I believe that Emperor Tai An, who sits on the throne, is having sleepless nights! Therefore, in the next few years, they will not act against your Western Garrison Marquisate until they have gathered enough strength.
Once they have gathered enough strength, then it will begin…"
Bai Li Cheng Feng's pupils shrank. Even his father, a killing god who conquered the world, might not have such a thorough understanding of the situation in the world. Yet, Su Sheng, a scholar who never left his home, knows all about the world.
What kind of power does his Master possess?
Bai Li Cheng Feng remembered the first day Su Sheng entered the mansion: poor, elegant, down-and-out, a scholar who couldn't even fight a chicken. Now, look at him!
Mysterious, unfathomable, observing the world from his courtyard.
How did he do it?
Bai Li Cheng Feng felt strange in his heart but didn't ask. However, Wen Hu Jiu, without hesitation, asked: "Master, my sister told me that when you first met her, you were just a scholar.
Down-and-out, maybe you didn't even have a tael of silver on you. But now, you are unfathomable, mysterious, and you can know everything that happens in the world. How did you do it?
How did you transform yourself so drastically in such a short time?"
Su Sheng: "Nothing special, just teaching students every day, teaching them some knowledge. As I teach, I become different…"
Bai Li Cheng Feng glared at Wen Hu Jiu with a helpless expression: "Master, you're being so sarcastic, you know that?"
They spent a lot of energy, materials, wealth, and even risked their lives to break through their realms.
But Su Sheng said that he just taught students every day and became stronger. Is that even human talk?
Su Sheng: "Alright, it's getting late. Go to rest. Bai Li Cheng Feng, you don't have much time left to become a Sword Immortal. The Emperor won't act against the Western Garrison Marquisate, but he might send the Five Supervisors to destroy you!"
Bai Li Cheng Feng was startled and quickly went back to train!
After Bai Li Cheng Feng and Wen Hu Jiu left, Su Sheng waved his hand and set up an illusion and formation around him, and began to cultivate!
Suddenly, a burst of true energy left his body, causing a celestial phenomenon. Su Sheng's meridians were full of energy, and his senses seemed to become more acute. Suddenly, he felt a pair of eyes staring at him from the shadows.
Su Sheng, without making a sound, leaped onto the wall of the backyard!
Su Sheng sneered. It was the Qing King, Xiao Xie!
Then, Su Sheng took out the Zhan Tian Sword from the Celestial Palace, and with a casual swing, "Boom!"
A loud bang!
The Qing King's courtyard was instantly split in half!
Then, Su Sheng returned to his courtyard, his eyes sparkling: "Breakthrough!"
He had officially broken through to the Xiaoyao Tianjing, Fuyao Realm!
According to his current strength, he should be able to match a Sword Immortal!
Su Sheng took out the Great River Sword Intent from the system. The Great River Sword Intent is a sword technique manual with nine moves, and there are also the Yang Pole Transformation techniques, totaling nine hundred and eighty-one moves.
The pinnacle of sword moves is the Great River Sword Intent.
The Nine Swords of the Great River. Su Sheng first took out the first sword move, the Rolling Sword Technique!
The sword energy crisscrossed like a large net!
Su Sheng's eyes lit up: "It's truly exquisite!"
Su Sheng was diligently cultivating, but he didn't know that Qian Dong City was in an uproar at this time.
Countless martial arts masters, hearing the commotion, only saw someone using one of the nineteen moves of the Embroidery Sword Technique in the middle of the night. Then, the entire courtyard was instantly split in half!
Qing King Xiao Xie, with his clothes shattered by the sword energy, stood in front of the courtyard: "Who did this? Who did this?"
"Splitting a courtyard with one sword, was that a Sword Immortal who descended?"
"When did Qian Dong City have such a Sword Immortal?"
Yue Yao looked at Su Sheng's courtyard and realized that his room wasn't lit up. She leaped up and jumped over the wall.
Bai Yi and Zi Yi were waiting there: "Miss, are you alright? You went into the Ghost Valley Academy alone, and there are unknown masters inside. It's too dangerous!"
Yue Yao's eyes sparkled: "I have successfully become a disciple of Mr. Ghost Valley. There is no danger!"
"Miss, you really met the masters of the Ghost Valley Academy? Who is he? Now, the North Li Dynasty is looking for the identity of this Ghost Valley Master. If we know this information, we might be able to trade with many people in the North Li court and gain benefits!"
Yue Yao, hearing that they wanted to use Su Sheng as a bargaining chip, instinctively resisted: "No, there are only a few people in the Ghost Valley Academy now. I just joined. If I reveal the information, others might easily suspect me.
Moreover, I have an amazing discovery in the Ghost Valley Academy!"
"What?"
"Innate Martial Veins!"
Bai Yi and Zi Yi were incredibly shocked: "Is there really someone with Innate Martial Veins in the Ghost Valley Academy?"
"Yes, I won't be wrong. But this person is now the chief disciple of the Ghost Valley Academy. It's not easy for us to act. We can only wait for the opportunity."
"Yes, everything will be according to Miss's arrangement!"
"Alright, stop talking about the Ghost Valley Academy. Tell me about what happened here. Did you notice anything?"
"We couldn't see who it was, but someone had a long sword that emitted a bright light. He swung it casually, and the sword energy was sharp. That sword, it seemed to be able to cut rivers, move mountains, overturn oceans, and cleave the heavens! It was extremely powerful.
That person seemed to be restraining his true energy, making the sword energy only strike this courtyard!"
