The opportunity was initially requested by Chen Shijie from Yang An, so there was indeed a favor involved.
Although Zhao Xing was directly transferred by an order from the Military Realm, both publicly and privately, he had to co and see this face.
Yang An gestured with his eyes to Jia Pu, and before Zhao Xing could complete the action of kneeling on one knee, he stopped him.
"Zhao Xing, what wrong have you committed?" Jia Pu said,
"If there really is a mistake, it’s mine. I failed to protect you, Chen Shijie, and Long Xiao."
Yang An waved his left hand: "Alright, military officer, none of you are to bla, the fault lies with Prince Liang."
"Zhao Xing, you have repeatedly achieved military rits in the Divine Might Army; without you, the generals of the Divine Might Army could not possibly have pushed to the north of the Yang River."
"Though I gave you a spot, the rit is your own achievent."
"We have t by chance, and now that you are leaving, I shall give you a gift." Yang An said, "Is your Ten Thousand Skill Avatar on the boat?"
Zhao Xing nodded: "Yes, Marquis, it is."
Yang An said, "Has it integrated the way of the protector?"
Zhao Xing faintly guessed what Yang An was about to give him: "It has integrated this thod."
The Guardian Grassman can store a myriad of skills.
It is also the foundation of the Ten Thousand Skill Avatar; to expand the function of the avatar, one must integrate the Guardian Grassman.
Now Zhao Xing’s main nine avatars all possess this effect.
Yang An stretched out his remaining left hand and suddenly commanded: "Guardian Captain Zhao Xing, listen to the order!"
"At your command!" Zhao Xing saluted with his hands.
"Receive the sword!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Xing’s brow twitched, and the nine avatars imdiately leapt down from the warship above the square.
"This Marquis will release ten portions of Azure Dragon Sword Energy, Zhao Xing. How much power you can retain depends on your skill."
After speaking, a flash of azure light twinkled at Yang An’s fingertip, then swiftly burst out from the Marching Hall, like an Azure Dragon swimming towards the warship.
Shushushushushushushushushushu~
Nine avatars appeared instantaneously in the path of the sword energy.
"Aong~"
A dragon’s roar emitted from within the sword energy.
The first Grassman collided with the sword energy, followed by a bright light.
The dragon-shaped sword energy passed through the first Grassman without any decrease whatsoever.
Zhao Xing’s second Ten Thousand Skill Avatar stepped up, actively absorbing the sword energy.
But the second avatar quickly beca saturated.
The sword energy moved like a dragon, striding proudly through heaven and earth.
The nine avatars took turns entering the fray.
Until the ninth avatar was also filled with Azure Dragon Sword Energy, and there was still so left over!
"Duke Divine Might truly stands out, even after Prince Liang suppressed him once, his reputation still resounds across the world upon his resurgence," Zhao Xing marveled, feeling the power of the sword energy within the avatars.
Shushushushushushushushushushu~
The original figure, together with the Ten Thousand Skill Avatars, landed outside the Marching Hall.
Zhao Xing knelt on one knee and loudly declared, "Thank you, Marquis, for the sword!"
This was the first ti Yang An had commanded him and also the last; afterwards, Yang An changed his manner of address.
After Zhao Xing received the sword, Yang An’s voice drifted from the Marching Hall: "A heart full of fervent blood, treasures being nurtured, once spilled, can still turn into azure waves."
"Marquis Yuan Rang, until we et again."
...
Datong Prefecture, Wanfeng Mountain.
The surface of the calm lake suddenly rippled in circles, becoming denser until at a certain mont, the central area surged upward.
"Splash~"
Four Qilin creatures, flickering with golden light, leaped out of the water. Once the golden light dispersed, they were four Qilin Flying Boats.
Three of the flying boats were aligned together; the fourth was opposite them.
Zhao Xing, Long Xiao, and Chen Shijie stood together; Liao Rulong stood on his own flying boat.
"Zhao Xing, Chen Shijie, Long Xiao," Liao Rulong greeted with a bow, "do visit my hotown, Boping County, in Binjiang County of Guanghua Prefecture, whenever you have ti."
"Definitely," Zhao Xing replied, raising his fist, "Brother Liao, take care."
"Let’s go!" Liao Rulong waved his hand and then entered the cabin. The Qilin Flying Boat turned into a stream of light and soon disappeared in the sky.
Watching Liao Rulong leave, Zhao Xing couldn’t help feeling a little sentintal.
The original plan did not involve Liao Rulong participating in the impeachnt, but at that ti, he bore the brunt of the matter alongside them.
Zhao Xing’s advice was fruitless, and in the end, Liao Rulong was also detained.
The outco was the sa for all: they were not promoted to fifth rank, moved to local offices, and their miscellaneous titles were stripped away, exchanged for several orders of honor based on their military achievents.
Liao Rulong’s hotown was in Boping County, Binjiang County of Guanghua Prefecture; he and Yang An were from the sa place.
Liao Rulong had joined the army with Yang An, though their achievents differed—Yang An had already beco a Fourth-Rank General, while Liao Rulong remained a sixth rank.
After Liao Rulong left the battlefield, Zhao Xing wondered whether it was a blessing or a curse, but with things as they were, he no longer pondered it.
"Old Chen, Long Xiao, it’s also ti for us to go," Zhao Xing said.
"Hmm."
Long Xiao’s hotown had been subrged; having no place to go during his half-year leave, he planned to hang out with Zhao Xing and Chen Shijie.
Chen Shijie also planned to return to Gucheng; his family was in West Mountain County, but he had no relatives left there. He had an uncle and aunt who were quite closely related but had treated him poorly in his youth, and he had long severed ties with them.
Chen Shijie had no desire to go back and sha them, so he also planned to go to Gucheng, where Gui Niang was still waiting for him.
"Let’s go," Long Xiao said, "Last ti we went to Gucheng, we just ended up fighting for you, and didn’t really have fun. This ti, we should really take a good look around."
"Zhao Xing, as the host, you’ve got to treat us!~"
"If you’re looking for fun, I’m afraid you’ve found the wrong person," Chen Shijie laughed, "Does Zhao Xing seem like soone who enjoys pleasures?"
"Hehe, you might not know this," Long Xiao teased with a wink, "When I was his Protector during the handling of the Shao Wanjie case, guess what?"
"What happened?"
"Hey, this guy pretended to be Shao Wanjie, had two cat-eared girls serve him at a hot spring, and even called over a bunch of veil dancers..."
