With deliberate calculation against those unprepared, it was not difficult to avoid being discovered by Fan Qingqing.
In fact, Green Sheep Town was now developing quite healthily.
Jiang Wang’s fa was growing, and he was making more and more friends within Qi Country.
The business of De Sheng Trading Company was getting better and better, and after such a long period of training, Dugu Xiaoxiao was handling the town affairs quite competently.
Now, with Fan Qingqing assisting earnestly by her side…
The Zheng Sheng Hall was almost completed, and Fan Qingqing was clearly a smart person; she knew what she should do.
From Jiang Wang’s covert observations, she did not harbor any crooked thoughts and dutifully fulfilled her responsibilities.
That being said, even if she had so crooked thoughts, Dugu Xiao was not so easily fooled.
Although Dugu Xiao’s Transcendent path was initially guided by Zhu Bijing, Dugu Xiao was not Zhu Bijing.
She had understood the cruelty of the world much earlier.
Of course, the present Zhu Bijing was no longer the Zhu Bijing of the past…
Along this journey, many people and many things were changing.
Even Xiang Qian, who used to lay around idly every day, was now spiritedly trying out his sword skills around the world.
These various changes, it was actually hard to say whether they were good or bad…
However, one thing was certain: the lives of the people in Green Sheep Town were getting better and better, and this was definitely a good thing.
As the lord of this land, Jiang Wang did not demand anything extra.
In fact, just by doing this, it was enough to let the common people live and work in peace and contentnt.
Not to ntion the vitality that De Sheng Trading Company brought to this place, as well as the care given by the Patrol Inspection Bureau of Sunshine County, out of respect for Jiang Qingyang.
After such a long ti of developnt, Green Sheep Town had beco a well-known wealthy town in Yang Region, with many people eager to move here, only hindered by the system.
Jiang Wang did not make an appearance and quietly left the place.
From his observations during this trip in Yang Region, this land had completely integrated into Qi Country, with more ordinary people enjoying the countryside.
When the people of Yang beca people of Qi, their lives indeed improved a bit.
It probably would not be long before the temporary position of the Patrol Inspection Bureau of the three counties in Yang Region could be converted to that of a Prefectural Governor.
This would be good news for Tian Antai, Huang Yixing, and Gao Shaoling.
Throughout the ti they presided over the politics of Yang Region, they indeed had put a great deal of thought into it.
Compared to Tian Antai and Gao Shaoling, who had the support of their families, Huang Yixing’s position was actually more stable, as each day he served as a surrendering officer from Old Yang was a great consolation to the people of Yang Region.
However, the forr two could manage the Prefectural Governnt as a foundational base for their families, while Huang Yixing, as a new official of Qi Country, had almost no chance of doing so, at least in his generation, without significant rit.
…
Star Moon Plain lay between Xiang Country and Xu Country; crossing from Qi Country, one could directly pass through Xu Country.
Following the collapse of Yang Country, the Nine Countries of the Rising Sun once shone splendidly in the Eastern Region for a ti.
After several campaigns, their glory waned, leaving only Yang, Zhao, Chang, and Xu countries.
After the fall of Yang Country, when the Four Countries of the Rising Sun beca three, Xu Country was even more submissive towards the Overlord Country.
If Jiang Wang revealed his identity, he would receive flattery all along the way.
An incident like being chased by the City Guard Army soldiers was absolutely impossible to occur again…
But Jiang Wang did not care for such treatnt and thus passed through the territory inconspicuously.
If not necessary, showboating was not his desire.
Before his death, Zhang Song had said to Jiang Wang, “Perhaps I should have killed you while in a state of destruction.”
This indicated that there were definitely those within Equality Country who bore hostility towards Jiang Wang.
It’s just that Zhang Song himself was unwilling to act.
He blocked Cui Zhu’s path and significantly mitigated the impact of Cui Zhu’s assassination case, preventing Emperor Qi from making decisions in a fit of rage.
Such a formidable ruler, even if aware of a mistaken decision, would hardly turn back…
So on Jiang Wang leaving Qi Boundary this ti, he might attract retaliation from Equality Country—if the Imperial City Inspection Mansion handled it correctly.
Strictly speaking, given that Jiang Wang had already reported his trip in advance, the danger of this journey was not great.
Before the Yellow River Gathering, even if the Imperial City Inspection Mansion decided to use Jiang Wang as bait, they would definitely provide enough protection.
Otherwise, who would bear the responsibility if Emperor Qi later inquired about it?
With three contests at the Yellow River Gathering, a powerful country like Qi Country certainly could not be absent and must vie for first place in each.
If sothing happened to Jiang Wang, would Emperor Qi have to choose soone else to compete at the last minute?
The Imperial Ancestral Temple had been visited, Pointing Generals’ Stage had been advised, and now if the person was gone…
Being skinned was the least that would happen.
From now until the start of the Yellow River Gathering, it could be said that these prodigies from the various countries were the most precious people in Qi Country, top to bottom.
Their reasonable requests would all be satisfied.
At the critical mont of preparing for the Yellow River Gathering, perhaps it would have been the best choice for all the competitors to honestly stay in Linyi City.
But if these national prodigies wished for more thorough preparation, for more extensive experience, who could stop them?
Not to ntion, Jiang Wang rely made a trip to Star Moon Plain, staying a few nights before returning.
On the other side, Ji Zhaonan had also set out to sea, claiming to be sharpening his skills in Lost World on the side, and nobody stopped him either.
They were prodigies, they were warriors, not prisoners.
Of course, among the three participating in the Yellow River Gathering, only Zhongxuan Zun truly stayed honestly in seclusion in his residence…
With Zhongxuan Sheng’s wisdom, not suspecting any danger in this journey, there likely wasn’t much of a problem.
In fact, Zhongxuan Sheng believed that if Equality Country had any intelligence at all, they wouldn’t bite such an obvious hook.
Even if the Imperial City Inspection Mansion’s act was convincing, the hook was too blatant…
If he flew directly, with Jiang Wang’s current speed, he could reach Star Moon Plain within a day.
But to “hide his tracks,” he took three days.
To fly unhindered over the lands of Xu Country, it was impossible without revealing his identity as a prodigy of Daqi.
Jiang Wang was already accustod to rushing about like this.
It was nothing more than rushing, cultivating, rushing, cultivating…
It couldn’t be more normal.
But to those observing him in a certain way, these three days of monts and details truly touched their hearts.
On an unnad hill outside Star Moon Plain.
An Array Plate laid on the ground provided excellent cover for his traces.
Within the Array Plate’s range of effect, a man with a square face and slightly frosted temples asked, “How is it?”
He was sitting cross-legged on the ground, holding a compass with jade stars inlaid in it, and while he had a very serious appearance, he didn’t seem to care much about his image at the mont.
His eyes remained on the compass as he asked the question.
The one he was asking, a slender man with high cheekbones, stood with his hands behind his back, gazing up at the sky, his eyes bright and lively.
After a while, he took his gaze back from the sky and shook his head, “With talent that even Doctor Yi and the murderer praised, and willing to work so diligently, if Jiang Qingyang cannot beco renowned under heaven…
then indeed it would be an injustice of the natural order.”
The standing man was Li Youjue from the Imperial City Inspection Mansion, holding the rank of third-class in the Qing card.
He had once t Jiang Wang outside The Imperial Ancestral Temple and had been invited by Ma Xiong to inspect the clues in the Hou Ling Shrine of the Nine Returns Marquis.
And the sitting man was of course the famous Yue Leng, who had retired to a higher rank two years prior.
But he was very supportive of the current Capital Commandant Zheng Shi’s work and occasionally still participated in operations of the Imperial City Inspection Mansion.
At first glance, with Jiang Qingyang traveling alone, being secretly accompanied by two Godly cultivators made a scene even more impressive than any young master in Linyi City, truly formidable.
Yue Leng, without taking his eyes off the compass, remarked, “Or what did you think?
That’s why I brought him into the Qing card.
Hmph, at the ti so people even criticized , saying I was clinging to the Zhong Xuan Family’s coattails…
Now what?
His attending the Yellow River Gathering is the glory of our Qing card!”
Both n were keeping their eyes on Jiang Wang, though their thods of watching were different.
He relied on this compass without a mont’s break, while Li Youjue depended on his own eyes, occasionally observing more closely.
Although it was to lure the snake from its hole, before the Yellow River Gathering, they indeed couldn’t allow Jiang Wang to co to any harm.
Li Youjue praised, “The eyesight of a Godly hunter is truly extraordinary.”
Yue Leng casually replied, “At the ti, even the White Lantern was vying for him…”
He suddenly shut his mouth.
Li Youjue also stopped speaking.
The term “White Lantern” seed like a taboo, as if uttering it demanded all conversation to cease.
