Chapter Sixty-One: Pillars of the Nation
f the Eastern Emperor.“In the past, your status wasn't sufficient, and I wouldn't say much about certain matters. But now that you are the garrison commander of Nanyu Mansion, I shall be straightforwa...In the main hall.
Both of them remained silent, but looked at each other.
After a long time.
Ji Tianlu suddenly laughed and said, "Elder Shen's name, I have long heard of it. Since the establishment of the Demon Suppression Division three hundred years ago, Elder Shen has been the first in terms of talent."
"Upon closer inspection, it truly is as I had thought!"
When he saw Shen Changqing, he was truly astonished.
He had only just joined the Demon Suppression Division, his strength wasn't impressive.
In Ji Tianlu's eyes.
The person before me was brimming with vitality, standing there like a blazing sun, captivating all who beheld them.
Those who become the Guardian are never ordinary people.
He was very clear about it.
What does Shen Changqing's current performance represent
Great Sun Furnace!

Qi Tianlu didn't expect this at all.

> A person who had only been in the Demon Suppression Division for a few years, was actually able to reach the realm of the Great Sun Furnace.
Shen Changqing did not conceal his aura, nor did he hide his intentions.
In the Demon Suppression Department, strength is paramount.
>
The stronger one's own abilities are, the more people will respect them.
Meanwhile.
The Eastern Emperor sent him to break the Mountain City, clearly intending for him to help the Mountain City Demon-Slaying Division solve the problem.
Back then.
He can't hide his true abilities either.
It's only a matter of time before it's exposed anyway, so why not just come clean and lay everything out in the open
“As for General Ji's illustrious name, Mr. Shen has long been aware of it. To have this opportunity to meet General Ji is truly an honor.”
Shen Changqing smiled.
Those who can become guardians are not weak.

A peak martial artist within a single system, that is, equivalent to a garrison commander only.
But that kind of garrison commander, his strength was only average.
In front of me is Ji Tianlu.
It's impossible to be just an ordinary garrison commander.
After all, the other party is at least the official spokesperson of the town's Demon Suppression Division.

In the Demon Division within Pushan City.
The guardian spirit possessed is more than just that simple.
Ji Tianlu was able to suppress everyone and become the master of Po Shan Town's demon division, how could his strength be weak
Subsequently.
Shen Changqing once again said, “A while ago, Deng Gu went to the capital to seek help. Dong Fangzhun asked Shen Mou to accompany him here. General Ji, if there is anything Shen Mou can help you with, please feel free to ask.”
>
We, as members of this group, should regard slaying demons and eradicating evil as our duty and will never shirk it.
For over a month, since the chaos within the Demon Suppression Division, he hasn't had any kill points to his name.
>
"It's fortunate that Elder Shen is willing to help. At present, Po Shan City faces a severe problem. I was still considering how to resolve it, but now that I see Elder Shen, I feel much more at ease."
A smile appeared on Ji Tianlu's face.
“General Ji, if you have something to say, please speak plainly.”
>Ten days ago, a city in Nanyu Prefecture suddenly lost contact. Twenty million people within the city vanished without a trace. My Demon Suppression Division dispatched numerous demon hunters, but none returned with any news.
>
Later, Xun Qu defended the city, but he also disappeared.
When Ji Tianlu got to this point, his face became very serious.
Below, Shen Changqing heard this and nearly had the same expression on his face.
The loss of the garrison is indeed a major event.
"So, General Ji's meaning is that he hopes Mr. Shen will take action"
"Not bad," Ji Tianlu nodded. "I'm stationed in Poshan City and can't leave without authorization. After all, hundreds of thousands of people live here in Poshan City, and it's also the location of the Demon Suppression Division. If it were attacked by demons, the consequences would be endless."
Elder Shen was already a powerhouse at the pinnacle of the Grandmaster realm. In terms of strength, he was no weaker than the Garrison Commander.
Therefore, it is most appropriate for you to take action.
His eyes were blazing.
A master at the peak of martial arts would be much more suitable to make a move than I would.
Shen Changqing frowned: "What realm is Xun Qu, the defender of Xunqu Town, at And after being out of contact for so long, can he still be alive"
"Xun Qu had only become the Garrison Commander for a short time, his strength was roughly equivalent to that of a peak Grandmaster. Additionally, he had a soul lamp in the Demon Suppression Division, and the soul lamp hadn't extinguished, meaning he hadn't perished."
Ji Tianlu hesitated for a moment.
Then.
He spoke again.
“I understand that this situation is not easy, but if we let Xun Qu be trapped there, it would also be a problem. As the guardian of Po Shan City, I can't just stand by. If any guardian falls, it could lead to complete chaos.”
Elder Shen, you don't need to do anything else, just rescue Xun Qu.
"After this matter is resolved, I will break the mountain city and subdue the demons. I will not forget your contributions."
Shen Changqing fell into deep thought.
He didn't agree readily, nor did he refuse outright.
This is a placeholder.
A city of 20 million people vanished, and even the town marshal was besieged there.
The events involved during that time, were definitely not simple.
Though his own abilities were strong, they wouldn't surpass Xun Yu's by much, and might even be inferior to him.
>
This way.
If you were stuck there, it would be a big problem.
A moment.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing said, “I need to think about this seriously. Also, I want a report on the other city. Give me one day, and I will give General Ji an answer.”
"Great!"
>
Ji Tianlu did not force it.
When it comes to one's own life, it is perfectly normal to think carefully and seriously.
Moreover, the other party is a martial arts hall elder. Even if he wanted to force it, there's no way he could.
"Elder Shen can return first. I will have someone send the relevant information over later."
"Farewell."
Shen Changqing did not say much. After slightly cupping his fist, he turned and left.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
>In the vast hall.
Soon, only Ji Tianlu was left.
“Less than three years to the peak of a master, he must have received some powerful opportunity, maybe even an ancient relic. It's really enviable——”
He is really envious.
If one had such an opportunity, perhaps they would become a guardian spirit so quickly.
Shaking head.
Jì Tiānlù no longer thought about this matter.
How did we meet
He's not very involved.
And even if he wanted to forcefully seize it, with Elder Shen's skill, he wouldn't have a 100% chance of success.
The capital city.
The Imperial Palace, in a small pavilion of the rear garden.
Two people sat opposite each other, a chessboard placed between them. The black and white pieces were arranged in an intricate pattern, resembling the clash of armies on a battlefield.
One piece is dropped.
Ancient Xuanji calmly said, "Demonic evils are becoming increasingly rampant now. The number of town guarding envoys should be increased."
He was sitting opposite him.
To the East, there was no hesitation. He responded immediately with a move of his own.
"The position of the Town Guardian is extremely important. Recklessly expanding it might inadvertently empower demonic forces. After all, not everyone can withstand the erosion of demonic power. Throughout history, many Town Guardians in the Demon Suppression Division have failed to integrate and instead joined forces with the demons."
“Within the palace, there are quite a few determined death soldiers. I believe it’s worth considering allowing them to try and see if they can succeed. If successful, the strength of our Qin empire would increase significantly.”
The issue of demonic disturbances can also be resolved.
When Gu Xuanji dropped a piece, a smile appeared on his face.
The eastern emperor's actions weren't slow by much.
Even as Bai Zi was being slaughtered, he still pressed his attack with great ferocity, showing no sign of defense at all.
“To become a Guardian General is not so simple, and the method to become one has always been in the hands of the Hidden Heart Pavilion. Your Majesty knows that although the Hidden Heart Pavilion belongs to the Demon Suppression Division,…”
To be frank, we don't have much control over the inner workings of the Qinshen Pavilion.
Moreover, those people in the Latent Heart Pavilion are all stubborn old men, they may not be willing to really take things out. If you force them, I'm afraid it will cause some unnecessary trouble.
"Your Majesty is a saintly ruler, and I'm sure you understand this yourself."
Eastern Imperial Decree's expression remained calm throughout, his tone neither hurried nor slow.
While the eunuch stood by respectfully, a chill ran down his spine.
“Dongfang Zhen Shou's words are reasonable, I was just casually mentioning it.”
Gu Xuanji's movements faltered slightly, his expression seeming to change ever so slightly, yet it was also as if nothing had changed at all.
When two people are talking.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Pieces clash and fight across the board.
Suddenly.
Dongfang Zheng placed two pieces on the chessboard, then stood up and bowed: "Your Majesty, your chess skills are superior. I accept defeat with conviction. There are other matters that need to be attended to by the Demon Suppression Division, so I shall not stay long."
That's all I have to say.
He took another bow, stepped back three paces, and then turned to leave.
Gu Xuanji watched him leave without saying a word.
The eunuchs standing beside him were frozen in place, afraid to move even an inch. Though their backs were already soaked with cold sweat, they endured it nonetheless.
“What do you say about this Dongfang Zhao”
Gu Xuanji suddenly said.
The eunuch was first taken aback, then hastily replied, "Eastern Commander is a pillar of the state, I dare not speak recklessly!"
"The Pillar of the Nation!"
"Gu Xuanji murmured a few words, then smiled."
He stood up.
> Walking outside.
“Today, I shall be resting myself. Unless it is something of importance, I will not see anyone.”
"Yes!"
Ji Tianlu is very fast.
As soon as Shen Changqing returned home, someone sent him what he needed.
Those who came.
Then there's Deng Gu, who can be considered an old acquaintance.
“Elder Shen, I have brought you everything you wanted.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In the midst of their conversation.
Deng Gu handed a volume of documents to Shen Changqing.
Sheng Changqing took the file, but instead of looking at it immediately, he asked a question.
“Does Deng Chumo have any understanding of the matter regarding the garrison commander's defeat”
>
"Elder Shen, you jest. I only just returned to the Demon Suppression Division and merely heard about this from others. As for specifics, I don't know any more than you do."
Deng Gu shook his head, a wry smile on his face.
Upon seeing this.
Shen Changqing didn't press further: "I was just asking casually. Since Deng Chumo doesn't know, I'll take a look at the case files. Also, please have Deng Chumo deliver the things personally."
“Very well, this junior will not disturb Elder Shen further.”
"Walk slowly."
After sending Deng Gu away, Shen Changqing closed the courtyard door and came to a small pavilion in the courtyard to sit down, beginning to review the file sent by the other party. join my tribe, we are willing to treat you with courtesy, and you can have anything you want.”The youth didn't act immediately, but instead, his tone softened somewhat.He didn't want to engage in dir...
