Shen Mansion.
Inside the study’s censer.
The ash of the Nourishing God Incense suddenly fell.
The air was already filled with a musky scent that invigorated the mind.
"Master Xie, does my nephew et the mark?" Shen Wenyan asked the man before him.
"Of course, he does!" The man in the white brocade robe smiled faintly, holding a steaming tea bowl in his hand.
He continued, "I originally intended to place Shen Congyun in Beimang County to serve as the Vice Building Owner there, given his exceptional insight. Previously in the small Luoshui County, he could single out the Lord Jiang."
"Truly remarkable."
"In my eyes now, he’s fully qualified for the Vice Building Owner position in Beimang County, and his status and perks would appropriately increase!"
At this, the man in the white brocade robe couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh lightly.
"It’s a pity Shen Congyun doesn’t want to go to Beimang County and is content with a minor managerial role in Guangning City; I can’t forcefully assign him."
Hearing the words of the Wanhua Building Master before him, Shen Wenyan naturally understood his implication.
He was explaining why, despite knowing Shen Congyun was his nephew, he was only given a minor managerial position.
He smiled imdiately.
"No matter!"
"Congyun is still young, and at his age, martial arts should co first. Being in Guangning City suits him, especially since I’ll be there for a long period."
"That’s perfect!" The man in the white brocade robe also breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Though his status was quite high, in front of the current Shen Wenyan, the local Wanhua Building Master was insignificant.
A Third Grade Marquis, Third Grade Residence Envoy, Second Grade Martial Divine Realm Great Grandmaster.
Any one of these single titles could shake Guangning Prefecture.
Let alone all three identities gathered in one person, in Shen Wenyan.
It could be said that in Guangning Prefecture, Shen Wenyan completely had the qualification and strength to drive Wanhua Building out.
Or he could assist Wanbao Building to easily suppress Wanhua Building.
Either choice would be disastrous for him.
Then.
He took out an invitation, a black-gold invitation.
He then handed it to Shen Wenyan.
"Marquis Shen, the sumr auction in two days, I wonder if you would be interested in attending?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenyan took the auction invitation placed on the tea table, opened and glanced over it.
He then nodded slowly.
"If I have ti, I will take a look!"
"Thank you, Marquis Shen, for gracing us with your presence."
At this mont.
Hasty footsteps quickly approached from outside the study, the sound coming from afar to near.
As they neared the door, the footsteps began to slow down, to a more deliberate pace.
A few breaths later.
Knock, knock—
The closed door of the study was gently tapped from outside.
"What’s the matter?" Shen Wenyan spoke.
"Master, three people are seeking an audience at the mansion! Leading them is Lord Ye of the Ye Mansion, accompanied by two others from Dongling County."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenyan smiled lightly.
"Bring them in!"
As the words fell.
He looked at the man in the white brocade robe in front of him.
"Master Xie, we were just talking about Lord Jiang, and now he’s conveniently arrived! Do you wish to see him?"
"Of course, I’d like to et him!" The man in the white brocade robe chuckled, "As the saying goes, seeing is believing! I’m curious to see the charisma of this young Patrol Envoy, Jiang."
ntioning Jiang Ning, a hint of envy appeared in his eyes.
Even though he had reached his current position as Wanhua Building Master in Guangning City, controlling vast resources.
It could be said that serving as the Wanhua Building Master in Guangning City ant he lacked ordinary martial resources.
Because for soone of his status, acquiring things was too simple and easy.
Embezzling a little, even if discovered from above, would not be addressed.
This was one of the unspoken rules.
Moreover, no one would check, and it would be difficult to discover.
Yet even so, with all he possessed.
He still envied Jiang Ning greatly.
So young, yet a Third Grade Grandmaster is within reach.
The gap with his current strength wasn’t far.
Not to ntion he served as the Dongling County Patrol Envoy.
Thus wielded power, easily connecting with many prominent figures.
Like Ye Zhengqi, like Shen Wenyan standing before him.
In his view, based on his understanding.
One day, that Patrol Envoy Jiang will surpass him.
Not just in status but also in martial arts achievents.
He was also intensely curious about Jiang Ning.
A mont later.
The sound of footsteps beca apparent outside the study.
The study door had already been opened.
In the blink of an eye.
Ye Zhengqi led Jiang Ning and two others to appear before Shen Wenyan and the man in the white brocade robe.
Entering the study.
Ye Zhengqi glanced at the man in the white brocade robe, then his eyes rest upon Shen Wenyan.
"Marquis!" he bowed.
"Greetings, Marquis!" Bai Luoyu also bowed.
"Greetings, Marquis!" Jiang Ning saluted.
"Oh!!" Seeing Jiang Ning stand before him, half a position behind Ye Zhengqi, Shen Wenyan uttered a sound of surprise.
Having reached the Second Grade Divine Intent Realm.
And being a Great Grandmaster.
His perception vastly surpassed the Third Grade Blood Exchange realm.
The Third Grade Blood Exchange pursued the evolution of life, the transformation of the flesh.
While Second Grade pursued the transformation of the mind and divine soul.
Shen Wenyan imdiately noticed the difference in Jiang Ning.
Compared to yesterday morning, the impression Jiang Ning gave was completely different.
He flashed, disappearing from his original position, reappearing a step away from Jiang Ning.
Seeing Shen Wenyan suddenly approach, Bai Luoyu instinctively stepped back.
