801: Chapter 55 Cang Sea 801: Chapter 55 Cang Sea Resources in full asure, respect in abundance, those are certainly things that a ruler should provide.
But to gain more support, what’s more important is to make people believe that with you, the future is boundless.
You have to beco a better choice to be the one chosen by more people.
This is the reason why Zhongxuan Sheng exhibited the Law of Heaven and Earth.
In business, he had already surpassed many, certainly not inferior to Zhongxuan Zun.
Now, what he had proved was that he also possessed enough talent to beco a powerful Transcendent Cultivator.
Only then could he vie for more resources from the Zhong Xuan Family to help Jiang Wang influence the sacrificial sea results at the Diao Hai Building.
He had already tried to dissuade him.
He had also attempted to conceal it.
But Jiang Wang had made up his mind, and in such a short ti had hurried back to Linyi, so he had no other choice but to support him unreservedly.
Following behind Zhongxuan Sheng, the bustling crowd brought back his mories of this magnificent city.
In the streets of Zi City, there were essentially no young masters who bullied n and oppressed won.
Because in the heart of the Great Qi Empire, too many Jiao Dragons lurked beneath the surface.
A stone thrown down could hit seven or eight high officials and three or four nobles.
No young master could claim to act unrestrainedly in Zi City.
So Zhongxuan Sheng’s current swagger was particularly conspicuous.
But precisely, he was one of the few aristocratic sons who could swagger through Zi City with pomp and pride.
Compared to his initial cautiousness when he first arrived in Zi City from the lands of the Zhongxuan Clan, it was like he was a completely different person.
But this was what Zhongxuan Sheng wanted people to see and know.
He was affirming his advantage, to make people reach the consensus in their hearts that he was the future Family Head of the Zhong Xuan Family.
Following this braggart through the streets, Jiang Wang felt a bit awkward, but he could still tolerate it.
After all, he had gotten sowhat used to it.
It was just that the occasional glances from Shisi surprised him.
Shisi never spoke; at first, Jiang Wang even thought the black-armored samurai was mute.
When they beca more familiar, a nod was considered a greeting, and he seldom opened his mouth.
“What is it, is there sothing wrong with ?” Jiang Wang asked proactively.
Shisi kept moving, the armor leaves resounding with each step.
After a long silence, he finally murmured, “His hair is not disheveled.”
Jiang Wang glanced at Zhongxuan Sheng’s hair bun and realized what he ant.
He quickly made ands, “Indeed it’s not disheveled.
I spoke thoughtlessly during our sparring.
This hair bun is arranged precisely, each strand in order, truly top-notch!”
Clearly not as thick-skinned as Zhongxuan Sheng, Shisi imdiately turned his head away in embarrassnt at the complint.
“Hey, Wang,” Zhongxuan Sheng, who was strutting with ostentation, suddenly turned his head around, “How co you’ve beco so slick with words after a trip away?
Does the work of a Qing brand catcher really train people that much?”
Reminded by Zhongxuan Sheng, Jiang Wang then rembered that when he left Qi Country, he was on a mission as a Qing brand catcher—to pursue the assassins of Hell Has No Door.
He still had to report back to Beiyaduwei later.
However, in comparison, it was Zhongxuan Pang’s sudden “critique” that surprised him more.
He thought for a mont, looked at Zhongxuan Pang, then at Shisi, and again at Shisi, then back at Zhongxuan Pang…
It seed he suddenly understood why the place for welcoming and cleansing was chosen to be the Clear Heart Small Lodge.
Maybe it was not just for this ti, but there might never be a chance for Zhongxuan Sheng to treat them to places like Red Sleeve Attraction again…
“What are you peeping at with those thieving eyes behind there!”
Zhongxuan Sheng grabbed him, “Co up and walk alongside !”
Clad in armor, Shisi walked silently on his right side, while he yanked Jiang Wang to his left, using his massive body to separate them.
Jiang Wang let himself be pulled without resistance, just laughing heartily but saying nothing.
Zhongxuan Shengming, clearly aggravated and shad into anger, said viciously, “Tell , during this return trip to Linyi, did Qiao Yanjun not prepare anything for you?”
Qiao Yanjun was a famous woman in the history of Qi Country, renowned for her luxurious and extravagant lifestyle.
It is said that when she married, she took an entire street from Linyi City as her dowry to a man who, in many people’s eyes, was quite ordinary.
That was a street of Linyi City!
People in Qi Country often used Qiao Yanjun’s marriage to describe a situation where the woman is wealthy, and the man is poor.
Having spent so much ti in Qi Country, Jiang Wang naturally understood what Zhongxuan Sheng was insinuating.
It was nothing more than an old tune, bringing up his relationship with Ye Qingyu.
Yet, he laughed even more jubilantly, “How co I detect a hint of guilt in your question, as if you are the thief?”
Jiang Wang felt a rare upper hand in the verbal exchange, his spirits buoyed, ready to press his advantage.
Then, abruptly, Shisi said, “We’re almost there!”
Her voice was actually quite soft, but it fell like a heavy sword cleaving a mountain, resolute and powerful.
Jiang Wang closed his mouth sheepishly.
Although there was still so distance to go, clearly not having arrived, to have forced soone as reticent as Shisi to speak up ant further provocation might lead to a beating…
right?
…
…
Clear Heart Small Lodge.
Shisi, as usual, stood in the corner of the room, leaning on her sword.
If one did not know her or had never heard her speak, it would be easy to mistake her for a statue.
The black armor she wore seed even heavier, although it was also of exceptional quality.
But it obviously couldn’t compare to the miraculous ‘Mountain-Bearing’ armor, not even when it was damaged and repaired.
In contrast, her heavy sword shimred with a concealed brilliance, seeming rather extraordinary.
A single inquiry revealed it was forged by the highly-priced weapon smiths of the Lian Family.
Given Lian Que’s connections, the sword couldn’t be far off in quality.
Of course, it couldn’t match the caliber of ‘Longing,’ since such famous weapons were rare and not easily found.
Jiang Wang sat opposite Zhongxuan Sheng.
Upon reaching this place, their banter ceased, and they began discussing serious matters.
In the Taixu Illusion Realm, an unspoken agreent had already ford between them.
Jiang Wang had started traveling imdiately, while Zhongxuan Sheng had without doubt begun gathering comprehensive intelligence.
Due to their limited prior engagents, they knew too little about the Near Sea Archipelago.
“I’ve heard soone say, ‘Without entering the Outer Building, there’s no going out to sea.’ Do you know what it ans?” Jiang Wang asked first.
“It seems you’ve also collected a fair amount of information, quite keen on that person surnad Zhu,” Zhongxuan Sheng glanced at him, offering neither mockery nor questions on his source of information.
Presumably considering he had gotten the intel from either the Lian Family or a Qing brand catcher, he said earnestly, “This has sothing to do with the sea sacrifice I was about to discuss with you.”
“I only learned about so information myself after taking over a portion of the family powers.
The saying you ntioned has a history of many years and is still applicable today.
This ‘going out to sea’ doesn’t an leaving the coast of the Great Qi.
It refers to beyond the Near Sea Archipelago…
the vast Cang Sea!”
“Cang Sea?” Jiang Wang mused, “What’s there in the Cang Sea?
The Cang Sea Aquatic Tribe?”
The largest and sole known sea region of the current world is located to the east of Qi Country, known as the Cang Sea.
The “Cang” denotes a granary of water.
It naturally produces food and nourishes countless lives, epitomizing greatness.
“No,” Zhongxuan Sheng shook his head, “It’s the Sea Clan.
The Water Race and the Sea Clan are entirely different.
The Water Race is our friend, the Sea Clan…
is our enemy!”
