But even with great fa, no one could compare to Ji Tianlu. A warrior at the Grandmaster Ultimate Summit, at most, would only be equivalent to a Marquis Rank Defender Envoy. Even Ji Tianlu did not have the confidence to say that he could defend Mountain-Breaking City with his power alone.
In their eyes, Shen Changqing’s words undoubtedly seed sowhat exaggerated. However, considering the other’s dignity and fearing his strength, they did not retort.
At this ti, Shen Changqing continued, "Dealing with Demon Evils is the responsibility of the Demon-Subduing Division and also the responsibility of all Qin People. When things beco truly dire, we can definitely leverage the power of surrounding Jianghu forces."
Leveraging power!
Soone frowned, "Those Jianghu forces don’t get along with us; if we rashly seek their help, they might not be willing."
"Whether they are willing is their business; what we do is ours. When it cos to an impasse, there’s no need to overthink it." Shen Changqing raised his hand, directly interrupting the other person.
Then, he turned his gaze to Xing Yi, who remained silent.
"If the Heavenly Inspection Guard were to transmit ssages with full force, just for matters within the jurisdiction of Mountain-Breaking City’s Demon-Subduing Division, how long would it take for the ssages to reach my hands?"
"If fully committed to transmitting ssages, it will not take more than a day," declared Xing Yi in a somber voice.
Although Mountain-Breaking City covered a vast territory, the Heavenly Inspection Guard also had their own ans of communication. In urgent situations, the speed of communication would be much faster than usual.
Having received a precise answer, Shen Changqing regarded the thods of the Heavenly Inspection Guard with increased gravity. Under these circumstances, Xing Yi would not be likely to exaggerate.
That ans the Heavenly Inspection Guard must have so ans of communication that he was unaware of.
Imdiately, he nodded. "Good. For the ti being, I want the Heavenly Inspection Guard to closely monitor all activities. Don’t overlook any unusual movents and forward the information to in the fastest way possible."
"No problem."
"Alright, let’s leave the matter at that for now. Relevant information will be passed down to you later. You must all reach the assigned locations within three days. There must not be any delays or procrastination!" Shen Changqing made his final decision with a firm tone.
Upon hearing this, the others exchanged glances, and then they departed in an orderly fashion.

「Inside the small courtyard.」
Shen Changqing handed a jade box to Jiang Zuo.
"Brother Shen, what is this?" Looking at the jade box before him, Jiang Zuo was puzzled. With his perception, he could clearly feel the powerful force contained within it.
Shen Changqing said, "This mission is not without danger. Consider this object sothing for Brother Jiang to protect himself with. If you truly encounter an invincible danger, feel free to open the jade box. I believe it can turn peril into safety.
"If, afterwards, Brother Jiang still hasn’t used it, then return the box to .
"Rember, do not open it unless you are in true danger, or it will be wasted."
Hearing the solemnity in Shen Changqing’s words, Jiang Zuo realized that the jade box in his hands was likely a consumable defensive asure. As for what kind of asure it was, he was not aware.
Seeing his confusion, Shen Changqing added, "If you encounter a low-rank Demon Evil, it should allow you to escape safely. But if you co across a mid-rank Demon Evil, then you can only pray for luck."
This statent shook Jiang Zuo to the core.
What did this an? Was it not tantamount to saying that whatever was inside the jade box could deal with Demon Evils, even those that had reached demonic levels of power?
Suddenly, his gaze towards the jade box was filled with shock.
"Brother Shen, isn’t this too valuable..."
"It’s fine. Use it if necessary, but it would be best not to use it at all!" Shen Changqing said, then waved his hand, cutting off any further words from Jiang Zuo.
