11:30.
Whoosh—
Jiang Ning lightly exhaled a breath of impure energy.
He slowly stood up.
[Skill]: Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill (Perfection 9333/10000)
Two hours of breathing and releasing the Essence of the Great Sun had made the accumulation of the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill even more profound.
A mont later.
Jiang Ning walked out of the Dongling Mountain Range and returned ho for lunch.
...
The next morning.
"Sir!"
"Greetings, Sir!"
"Salutations, Sir!"
Xie Xiaojiu, Feng Jiuge, and Zhou Xing all appeared before him.
After several days apart, the way they looked at Jiang Ning was even more respectful.
During these days, they truly experienced what it ant to make progress at a speed of a thousand miles in a day.
In just a few days, their martial arts progress matched years of effort, each leaping over a significant threshold.
They also knew that even their subordinates, having consud the Treasure Liquid bestowed by Jiang Ning, had made great advances in martial arts.
Now, the weakest of their subordinates were all in the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, with nearly twenty percent crossing into the Seventh Grade.
As for the three of them, all had made it to the Sixth Rank barrier.
Especially Feng Jiuge, who was not far from the Fifth Grade.
Previously, such pace of progress was sothing the three of them could not dare to imagine.
Because of this, the three now looked at Jiang Ning with utmost respect.
Especially Feng Jiuge, whose admiration was as fervent as fire, showing no attempt to conceal it.
"How is your strength now?" Jiang Ning asked, seeing the three arrive.
"Sixth Rank Iron Bone!" Xie Xiaojiu responded.
"Sixth Rank Iron Bone!" Zhou Xing said.
"Sixth Rank Xuan Bone!" Feng Jiuge stated.
Hearing this, Jiang Ning gave Feng Jiuge a surprised look.
Feng Jiuge had surpassed Xie Xiaojiu in strength within just a few days, which surprised him.
Previously, Xie Xiaojiu was stronger than Feng Jiuge.
Moreover, Xie Xiaojiu’s talent was considered higher than Feng Jiuge’s.
Among the younger generation in Luoshui County, aside from himself, Xie Xiaojiu was considered to have the highest talent.
Now, Xie Xiaojiu was indeed surpassed by Feng Jiuge, which seed unreasonable since Jiang Ning favored Xie Xiaojiu more.
There must be so reason, maybe Xie Xiaojiu was lax in martial arts, or sothing else.
But he was not inclined to inquire further.
Then he asked again.
"What about your subordinates’ strength now?"
"To report, Sir!" Zhou Xing cupped his hands and said, "Currently, there are no more Ninth Grade personnel in the Inspector Mansion taking salaries, the weakest are in the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, and about twenty percent have entered the Seventh Grade."
"Very good! Very good!!" Jiang Ning nodded with satisfaction.
Hearing Zhou Xing’s response, he could not help but feel gratified.
His efforts had not been in vain.
Finally, his subordinates could stand on their own.
Three Sixth Ranks, several Seventh Grades, and dozens of Eighth Grades.
Such strength was extrely formidable.
This also put his mind at ease regarding the upcoming plans.
The next mont.
Jiang Ning then made arrangents for the three to lead their people to Shishan County.
Shishan County is the county closest to the Water Moon Sword Palace and the Five Sword Sect.
And Shishan County is also where Bai Luoyu personally oversees things.
Currently, Shishan County is not stable.
The Yellow Heaven Sect personnel are active, and the God Worship Sect is present.
Recently, many lives have been lost there as well.
This is why Shishan County needs Bai Luoyu to personally oversee it.
Now, with his significant advancent in strength and increased confidence.
And having exhausted his resources, even the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures used to replenish human consumption after five blood transfusions were gone.
It was naturally ti to prepare to act against the Five Sword Sect first.
First, sever one arm of the Yingtian Alliance’s branch in Dongling County, which might clear out sect forces throughout Dongling County, turning the entire county into a solid fortress.
By doing so, he could also gain significant wealth from the Water Moon Sword Palace and fifty percent of their tribute for the next ten years.
This would be greatly beneficial to him.
Sending Zhou Xing, Xie Xiaojiu, and the others to Shishan County also facilitated his command for the forthcoming action against the Five Sword Sect.
It would also assist Bai Luoyu.
The three accepted Jiang Ning’s orders and headed towards the Inspector Mansion to gather personnel and proceed to Shishan County.
After assigning tasks to Xie Xiaojiu, Feng Jiuge, and others, Jiang Ning also made a trip to the Inspection Office.
...
"Greetings, Residence Master!"
In the study, Jiang Ning cupped his hands towards Zhao Yulong.
"Why have you co suddenly?" Zhao Yulong appeared surprised and imdiately stood up.
"Residence Master, I need evidence against all criminal personnel of the Five Sword Sect!" Jiang Ning went straight to the point.
"Are you going to act against the Five Sword Sect?" Zhao Yulong’s eyes narrowed.
"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded and then said, "I have longstanding connections with the current Palace Master of the Water Moon Sword Palace!"
"Are you taking such a big risk for a woman?" Zhao Yulong asked.
"This is unwise!" Zhao Yulong imdiately looked at Jiang Ning seriously.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Ning smiled: "Residence Master, this can be spread outside."
"Spread outside, what do you an?" Zhao Yulong was slightly taken aback, then as his expression changed, he imdiately understood.
"Are you confident?" He looked at Jiang Ning, still serious in tone.
"I have always been a cautious person!" Jiang Ning smiled slightly.
The next mont.
Zhao Yulong’s eyes couldn’t help but blink slightly, and the look in his eyes towards Jiang Ning changed again.
In that instant, the intangible sharpness emanating from Jiang Ning swept over, making Zhao Yulong feel awe, instinctively thinking of retreating.
But he suppressed this impulse, controlling his body’s instincts at that mont.
Simply because of the explosion of Sword Intent, he couldn’t afford to retreat before Jiang Ning.
"Sword Intent!!" Zhao Yulong slowly exhaled a breath of impure energy and continued, "No wonder you have such confidence."
Jiang Ning nodded.
"Alright, then, wait a mont, I will prepare all the evidence against the Five Sword Sect for you right away!" Zhao Yulong said.
