Chapter 9: Great Encyclopedia
ht, Jiang Wang looked at Yun You Weng: "I don't know how I obtained the Yun Ding Xian Gong. But after thinking about it..."He glanced at Ye Qingyu.It must be related to Ye Gezhu's arrangement.Looking...Now the city is.
This city, with its straight streets and square buildings, everything orderly and well-arranged, has stood this way for many years in the Daze County.
It is said that it was not like this before, although it was also orderly, but not as demanding as it is now, as if every detail had to be symmetrical.
But how things were before, few people can say for sure.
The subtle changes in a city are hard to notice for those who live there. People gradually accept and get used to them.

As for outsiders...
Apart from when the Qixinglou Secret Realm is open, there aren't many outsiders who come to Jici City.
Among all the top-tier aristocratic families in Da Qi, the most closed off was undoubtedly the Dazawa family. And for good reason, as everyone knew.
>
Since those people moved into the Fu-Bi building, avoiding the mention of their names, discussions about this city and this Fu-Bi building have gradually subsided.
What's there to argue about
Even if you're looking for death, don't go charging at a madman.
All in all, if one simply wants to die, they might as well choose a more comfortable way to go.
Lord Tian Xili, the head of the Tian clan, is currently in Linzi participating in the grand ceremony. Another powerful figure within the clan, Tian Huanwen, is overseas directing affairs.
But the entire city was still running in that peaceful and monotonous way, without a hint of disturbance.
Because that one... dislikes turbulence.
Political wisdom and governing ability are all external to him. That is, the officials in the city only need to know two things. First, it's best not to cause trouble for him. Second, it's best not to be trouble yourself.
Because that person's way of solving problems was too simple. So simple that there was no chance to make amends, let alone regret it.
Today is a nice day.

Because of the grand ceremony held in Linzi, the weather in the entire state of Qi would be perfect today.

"If a person's name is Tian Kaiyan, then Heaven must open its face."
This is a highly impactful phrase in the history of cultivation. Several legendary sages are associated with it, and it remains uncertain who uttered it originally. However, after this saying emerged, the art of divination became significantly simpler.
Of course, this "simplicity" is also a relative concept. However, for a powerful country like Qi, whether it's simple or not is simple.
At this moment, clouds drift aimlessly, the sky is clear and boundless, sunlight bathes upon the city walls.
A man of medium height, wearing a cloak, walked in from the official road, entering through the open city gate. His pace was leisurely, neither hurried nor slow.
The city guard, Tian Si, yawned languidly, a hint of summer fatigue clinging to his eyelids.
In the village of Oaza, no one dared to cause trouble for the Tian family.
But in Jicheng, there are no troubles for the Tian family.
So this guarding duty is really boring.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But as soon as he yawned, he jolted awake and quickly adjusted his posture, standing rigidly with his gaze straight ahead.
“Damn it, I've slacked off.” He thought to himself uneasily.
No matter how boring, there are rules to follow when defending the city.
>
The city is a very "rule-abiding" city.
The rules of this city are well-known, deeply ingrained. There's no need, nor desire, to be reminded again.
The guards' feelings were of no concern to the hooded figure.
He followed the procession into the city and stood in the street, looking around.
People on the street hurried past, and if anyone noticed him, they only gave a curious, fleeting glance.
It seems that the people in the city are unusually busy, so busy that there's no room for curiosity.

On both sides of the street were almost identical houses. The eaves and windows, every detail, were like a mirror image. Even the signs for each shop were uniformly designed.
The people in the store are all different, but they're all wearing similar styles of clothes. It seems like in this city, everyone in every profession wears a certain type of clothing.
This is really a too strict city.
"Hey! I'm talking to you! Don't just stand in the middle of the road!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At the city gate, a guard shouted.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Tian Si's eyes remained straight, and he didn't glance around. Maintaining order was also part of a guard's duty, and he was accustomed to this.
Looking forward from here, the entire street had a strange sense of order.
In the middle of the street, there seemed to be an invisible line that divided all the people on the street into two halves.
Those who come and go are clearly distinguished.
And the person wearing a cloak stood just on that invisible dividing line, quite conspicuous and eye-catching.
"Oh oh, sorry." The hooded person apologized meekly.
This is a somewhat vicissitudes male voice.
The apology was sincere, but it didn't truly let go. His feet were rooted to the spot, motionless, still standing in the middle of the road.
He looked around and sighed to himself, "This place is different from before."
"What's wrong with you Can't you understand me when I speak to you properly" The guard who had been driving them away became enraged, raised his sword and marched towards them, roaring, "Do you want to die!"
The cloaked figure didn't even turn their head, simply pressing back with their hand.
The air condensed into a gigantic, translucent hand that descended from the sky, instantly crushing the guard into a bloody pulp!

"Ah ah!"
Screams erupted, and the hastily arriving crowd dispersed in a rush.
The guards on the wall immediately drew their swords, and some went to beat the drums.
Here is the English translation:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But this man remained standing in the middle of the road, as if indifferent to everything.
"People have always been kind and speaking nicely. "
He shook his head and said, "You people surnamed Tian, you don't understand!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Tian Si, drawing his standard saber, trembled with every fiber of his being. He muttered incoherent words under his breath but didn't dare take a step forward. It was clear to everyone that this cloaked figure was beyond their capacity to handle...
For some reason, he was thinking, strangely, of the guard who had just been killed. He wasn't really surnamed Tian, it seemed. It was actually the other way around... Of course, this "Tian" didn't amount to much either, otherwise he wouldn't be guarding the city gate here.
But his legs were weaker.
The person who had boldly struck and killed the guard stood on the street connecting to the city gate. He casually took off his cloak and tossed it aside.
The ordinary-looking cloak, swirling and flying away with a whoosh, suddenly roared to life, its movement becoming violent as it smashed straight into a shop, leaving a smooth hole in the entire building!
Once the cloak was removed, his face, with its bushy beard and middle-aged features, was revealed.

This person stood on this long street, and let out a long shout: "It has been many years since we last met. I come to visit from the Liu family of Fufeng! Where is Lord Tian"
Fu Feng Liu's only god-level expert, Liu Xiao!
Liu Xiao, who personally led a group of people to encircle and kill Tian Anping in Changming County, was defeated by the latter's surprise attack at the last moment and failed to succeed!
The sworn enemy of the Oze family!
On this day, with both Tian Huwen and Tian Xili absent, Tian Anping's ten-year prison sentence was coming to an end in July.
He paid him a visit!
He asked where Tianjia was, but he probably didn't need to see anyone else.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Its voice rolled like thunder, overwhelming the entire city.
In Tian Si's terrified gaze, that Liu Xiao directly rose from his body, soaring above the chaotic crowd. He cut through the air with a sharp arc, aiming straight for Fu Bi Lou, located in the very center of Ji City!
Linzi.
Before the Temple of Taimiao, in the square, all were solemn.
The official presented the imperial decree, announcing loudly before the Imperial dais: "… Today, a distinguished individual bearing the name of Chongxuan has emerged. Possessing unparalleled charisma and brilliance, he fights for our nation. On the Guanhe Stage, he displays his might, making the world know of the exceptional heroes of our Great Qi... A hundred pieces of Yuanshi are bestowed upon him, along with a supreme Daoist technique of the Huangjie grade! May you be motivated by your heart and guided by your actions. Never forget your aspirations for the Azure Clouds, always carry the virtue of vast bearing in mind. Thus decreed!"
In white, as snow, Chong Xuan respectfully bowed to show his gratitude. His bearing and elegance were still impeccable.
Here is the translated text:

The gifts were not small, but to Chong Xuanzun they were nothing special.
However, people also know that the Yellow River Conference has not always been second place. It just wouldn't be such a grand ceremony. Chongxuan Zunun being awarded this honor is largely due to his success in winning first place this time.
But speaking of which.
The four characters "絕世風華" (meaning extraordinary charisma) inscribed on the imperial edict clearly demonstrate the Emperor Qi's high expectations for him.
It can be considered as a verification of the folk saying "to seize all the glory of one's peers."
The other gifts and things, they don't really matter that much.
And this elegant gentleman in white, with a faint smile still playing on his lips, showed neither arrogance nor servility.
For Chongxuan, who is willing to be a supporting role, it truly shows his unparalleled confidence.
Despite knowing that today was Jiang Wang's home turf, he showed no intention of avoiding the limelight.
Even if he chose to leave early, making up any excuse to go into seclusion, no one would say anything. After all, his performance on the Viewing Terrace was for all to see, and everyone knows what a proud person he is.
But he still participated in the ceremony as usual, walking alongside Jiang Wang who was destined to be the most dazzling presence today.
Witnessing Jiang Wang's glory.
>
Its arrogance is self-evident.
There were some who wanted to see him smile, those with a look of disdain that drifted behind his flowing white garments.
To be named the leader at the Yellow River Conference, is indeed a supreme honor.
But just such a distinguished name is not enough to suppress his profound respect for the mystical.
Jiang Qingyang is dazzling in his own right, why should he yield to the sharpnesshin his body.His pain, his sins, were ignited once more, even burning with a crimson fire. The flames of torment seared within him...A ray of light soothed him.He was comforted in his body, but his he...
