Wang Yan and Imperial Censor Ji's appearance not only surprised all the n competing for favor, but everyone in the mansion was shocked as well.
Throughout history, Wang Yan was the first to walk out after being favored by Imperial Censor Ji.
Yet, what amazed everyone was still to co.
Wang Yan stood there motionless, while Imperial Censor Ji was busy commanding others to ready the carriage, then taking out a white robe for Wang Yan to wear, finally helping Wang Yan onto the carriage.
Judging by the looks, Wang Yan seed to be the master, while Imperial Censor Ji appeared to be the doting servant.
At this mont, everyone wanted to know what exactly happened in that half-hour.
Why had their roles reversed?
Could it be that true conquest over a woman happens only in bed?
As everyone indulged in wild speculations, Wang Yan and Imperial Censor Ji left the Imperial Censor's Mansion in their carriage and arrived on the main road outside.
The reason Wang Yan wanted to go out for a walk was to gain a deeper understanding of the Great Qin Empire.
At this ti, Wang Yan wore a white robe, appearing no different than an ordinary person of the Great Qin Empire, except for not fully grasping the nuances yet.
Fortunately, Imperial Censor Ji kept explaining everything along the way to please Wang Yan.
Additionally, Wang Yan observed keenly and listened attentively, morizing everything around him, gradually understanding more and more about the Great Qin Empire.
The more he understood, the more astonished Wang Yan beca.
For the world he saw truly resembled the Qin Dynasty depicted in historical records, to a tee.
Historians would be overjoyed if they were present now.
After half a day's wander, Wang Yan roughly gathered all the information he needed and began pondering how to find soone who could craft Soldier Terracotta Warriors and inquire about the thod to create Terracotta Warriors.
Only with his own army of Terracotta Warriors could Wang Yan have the leverage to search for arrays to produce the smog.
While Wang Yan was lost in thought, he suddenly lifted his head, subtly cocking an eyebrow, and said, "Let's stop for a break."
Imperial Censor Ji followed Wang Yan's orders almost blindly. At Wang Yan's words, he imdiately commanded the carriage to halt.
The carriage they rode was also pulled by Horse Terracotta Warriors.
After coming to a stop, the two Horse Terracotta Warriors stood still imdiately.
Just as the two paused, a middle-aged man ca rushing from behind.
This middle-aged man arrived beside the carriage where Wang Yan sat, panting heavily and said, "Lady, you were really hard to find."
The man had a nearly bald head with barely any hair, and a black spot on his left cheek made him exceptionally ugly.
However, in the man's gaze towards Imperial Censor Ji, desire and lust brimd.
With a single glance, Wang Yan could tell that the man coveted Imperial Censor Ji's beauty but hadn't succeeded, which was why he was ingratiating himself with her.
Sure enough, seeing the man, Imperial Censor Ji showed a trace of annoyance in his eyes, but on the surface, feigned a smile, responding, "Oh, so it's Imperial Censor Qin."
This Imperial Censor Qin quickly said, "Why be so formal? Just call Shousheng."
Inwardly, Wang Yan thought, "Turns out this man is also a Demon Emperor nad Qin Shousheng? Lucky for him his parents ca up with such an unusual na."
Imperial Censor Ji again impatiently asked, "Why are you looking for ?"
Qin Shousheng whispered, "Lady, I've received news that Qinrong Palace is about to appear."
Originally, Ji Congjing was indifferent to Qin Shousheng, but upon hearing the na Qinrong Palace, he imdiately exclaid and grabbed Qin Shousheng's hand, screaming, "Are you serious?"
Qin Shousheng hurriedly hushed her, lowering his voice, "Quiet!"
Ji Congjing quickly regained composure, lowered his voice and asked, "Where did you get this news?"
Qin Shousheng smiled, "I barely survived to get this news, lady, I've only told you."
Hearing this, Ji Congjing bead with joy, nibbling his lower lip, eyes drifting, his voice tenderly soft, "Shousheng, you're so good to ."
With just this sentence, Qin Shousheng seed to be on high, like beans spilling out, enthusiastically talking, "It's said that Qinrong Palace appears once every millennium. Usually, it's unseen, but it appeared a thousand years ago, and those who entered reportedly obtained invaluable Magical Treasures. Odd Fire, Exotic Treasure, thods for crafting Terracotta Warriors—countless treasures..."
While saying this, Qin Shousheng used the Power of Demon Patterns to form a barrier between himself and Ji Congjing, an impenetrable blockade preventing the sound from escaping.
anwhile, Wang Yan sat aside, unable to take any action, yet listening to their entire conversation.
A re barrier set by a Demon Emperor couldn't stop Wang Yan.
Thus, when Qin Shousheng ntioned the thod for crafting Terracotta Warriors, a barely visible smile appeared on Wang Yan's face.
"Qinrong Palace, appearing once every millennia, holds the thod for crafting Terracotta Warriors. Seems my luck is indeed good. Since I've encountered it, I shall find a way to make Qinrong Palace my own," Wang Yan thought to himself with quiet delight.
Then, Qin Shousheng continued, "Qinrong Palace will appear at the source of the Yangtze River in a month. Let's set off imdiately and head there."
Ji Congjing hesitated, "The ergence of such strong treasures, surely even Lord Governor will act, what benefits can we reap?"
Qin Shousheng replied, "We won't fight for Qinrong Palace itself, but if we grab one or two treasures, it'll be worthwhile."
Ji Congjing nodded imdiately, saying, "Alright, let settle my affairs, and we'll set off at once."
Qin Shousheng glanced at Wang Yan and said, "There's no ti to spare. Leave him here, let's go."
Ji Congjing thought over Wang Yan for a mont, feeling a touch of reluctance, then said, "After all, we still have a month. I'll bring him along."
Seeing Wang Yan was just a mortal man, Qin Shousheng paid no mind to him, boarded Ji Congjing's carriage, and the three instantly left the city, heading north.
Wang Yan feigned ignorance, asking where they were going, which Ji Congjing casually dismissed.
Wang Yan ceased inquiring, pretending to know nothing, and followed them all the way to the Yangtze River.
Continuously traveling, within days the trio arrived at the banks of the Yangtze River.
The river surged like rushing horses, quite a spectacle.
At that mont, dozens of people had already arrived by the riverside, all sitting cross-legged, ditating.
It seed these people were also aware of Qinrong Palace's ergence, waiting here.
Qin Shousheng and Ji Congjing were aware that the ergence of Qinrong Palace would result in a fierce battle for treasures, so they stowed away the carriage, found a hidden spot away from everyone, and sat down.
Qin Shousheng imdiately closed his eyes to rest, while Ji Congjing advised Wang Yan not to wander off, then sat down to recuperate.
Wang Yan sat quietly beside them, waiting patiently.
Day by day passed, and more people flocked to the riverside.
At first, there were only so Demon Emperors, but later Demon Saints arrived.
Nurous Demon Emperors and Demon Saints gathered, reaching hundreds in number.
Seeing that only a few days remained until Qinrong Palace appeared, one day, seven Demon Saints Great Perfection appeared simultaneously.
As these seven Demon Saints Great Perfection arrived, the surrounding crowd showed fear and stood up to pay respects to them.
"Greetings, Lord Governor!"
Now Wang Yan also knew that to be called a Governor, one's cultivation must reach Demon Saint Great Perfection, and also hold the territory of a county, wielding extraordinary power.
The Great Qin Empire had 36 counties. With the arrival of seven Governors at once, clearly Qinrong Palace's influence was significant.
Among these seven Governors, a white-bearded elder stepped out, casting a cold gaze around and stated flatly, "Qinrong Palace's unparalleled treasures—do you re Demon Emperors dare to touch them? Truly reckless. I'll count to three, and everyone below Demon Emperor must leave."
Hearing this, Qin Shousheng and Ji Congjing glanced at each other, wondering if they'd return empty-handed after waiting so long?
