Chapter 346: The Alliance of Zhu He

g asked again, unable to help himself. "What kind of place is this Shanhai Realm"Zuo Guangshu thought seriously for a moment, as if considering how to explain things clearly to Jiang Wang."Then he sai...Gazing at the desolate field under the night sky, Jingli Monk sighed.

Linzi is really a bitter place, even the master and apprentice are thin...

Running so fast, must the Qi state court not give rest

How could someone be so heartless!

He touched his bald head and turned back.

Speaking of which, the master had another fight with his sickly uncle recently and now who knows where he went. I wonder if he's doing well out there...

He's actually working hard too.

Both his master and his younger brother caused him great worry.

Not long after Jiang Wang left Xingyueyuan, he encountered Yue Leng and Li Yougui empty-handed—since they had already revealed themselves, there was no need for them to hide their tracks any longer.

It seems they've lost track of their target again.

“Indeed, there were powerful figures lurking there, but by the time we arrived, it was too late.” Yue Leng explained: “The opponent was a master of this path and erased their traces very cleanly.”

Jiang Wang was very clear-headed. His own clumsy tracking skills were far from qualified to question Yue Leng and the others.

Therefore, he simply said: "The Equal Nation is indeed a big trouble. After this, I will honestly stay in the country until the Yellow River Convergence begins."

Yue Leng and Li Yougui looked at each other, obviously very pleased with his "understanding".

Yue Leng still smiled and said, "If you still want to travel around Dongyu, it's not impossible, but this time I have to be by your side every step of the way."

Of course, he was just making a friendly joke.

With a Transcendent Realm expert by your side, what's the point of traveling And this one is known as the "God Catcher," a Transcendent Realm expert. I'm afraid after a round of "travel," there won't be a single secret left on you.

Jiang Wang also smiled: "Although I'd love to follow the Divine Hunter and broaden my horizons, with the Yellow River Gathering about to begin, I can only wait for next time."

To speak of it, Yue Leng was the one who formally introduced him into the Qingpai system. His Shackles of Confinement were also taught to him by that person. Furthermore, Yue Leng was very supportive of Zheng Shi... If we divide the factions within the Qingpai system, they can be considered as a faction, and their relationship is closer than others.

Both laughed, with a hint of unspoken understanding.

Li Youjiao, standing beside her, looked at Jiang Wang and said: "To be able to erase the traces in such a short time, that person's strength will not be weaker than ours. I am more curious about how the other party attacked you, and how you managed to block the attack... Of course, if it is inconvenient for you, you don't have to say."

Now that Jiang Wang holds a prestigious Qing Pai rank, even facing a high-ranking official of the third rank, he has the right to decline on grounds of inconvenience...

It is not simply because of his reputation as a genius from another country, nor is it merely because the inspector Zheng Shi is close to him.

If before this, Li Youjiu only felt that Jiang Wang was a young genius. Then after these days of contact, he had firmly believed in the other person's future - with such diligence and hard work, there must be achievements in the future!

After some thought, Jiang Wang couldn't remain silent. He said, "The attack came from the soul realm."

Even Li Youjiu's piercing eyes, which could be startling, couldn't help but blink.

He and Yue Leng, although they had already speculated, could evade their watchful attacks, there were only a few possibilities. Especially the possibility of offense and defense at the soul level was the highest.

But when Jiang Wang really confirmed this answer, he couldn't help but be surprised.

...those divine techniques that were very difficult to even reach from the outside, Jiang Wang not only possessed them but also controlled them very well. He even withstood the invasion of such powerful beings...

This is not something that can be explained by the internal knowledge of the Qianyuan Eye.

Li Youjiu, of course, couldn't pursue the matter to its root. The question stopped there.

Only in my heart can I lament, the pride of the nation, indeed extraordinary.

"Let's go." Yue Lengjian had a hint of guilt in his eyes, but he didn't ask any further questions. He simply said, "Let's return to China first."

Three blue cards rose into the air and flew straight back to Qi.

A Great Qi divine emissary, a high-ranking Qingpai captain, had the power to operate without reporting and fly freely across the lands of all eastern countries.

This was a follow-up to a major case from years ago. Back then, a high-ranking official from the state of Qi had defected, and the inspectors' elite force had practically emptied their ranks to pursue him relentlessly.

But during the pursuit, because communication with passing countries was slow and permission to cross borders was not granted in time, the best opportunity was missed, resulting in the target escaping.

Emperor Qi was enraged and accused the country of harboring Qi's rebels, openly stating his intention to wage war.

The nation, fearing for its survival, signed an alliance with the State of Qi in utmost humility. The agreement stipulated that from then on, whenever a major case involving divine beings arose, officials from the State of Qi could fly across its borders without reporting to any authority.

That is to say, in the future, if divine realm experts come by, they need to judge for themselves whether the other party is a Qi State Qingpai before deciding whether to intercept them.

This pact is called the "Zhu He Alliance."

In a short period of time, it spread throughout the entire Eastern Region.

And the country that first signed this treaty was called "Ming."

was once one of the Nine Countries of the Rising Sun, later conquered and destroyed by the State of Qi.

The capital of the Ming Kingdom back then was located in what is now Zhu He County of the Great Qi Empire, which is also the region where Jinzhimen is located.

The so-called "Alliance of Zhu He" is a manifestation of the eastern hegemony of the State of Qi.

This is an underground stone room.

The setup is very simple, it could be said that it's just four walls.

Not even a door.

The four walls were inscribed with intricate patterns of lines.

These talismans, converging into a wondrous whole, repel all divination and calculation...

In the very center of the stone chamber, there was a stone disc—it looked much like a millstone, but it was considerably larger, about a zhang in diameter.

In the center of the disc, there is a hollow the size of an adult fist, bottomless. Starting from this hole, twelve deep markings neatly divide the disc.

Besides that, there was nothing else.

There was nothing here, not chairs and tables, nor lamps—nothing that one would expect to find in a secret room.

There is only a round disk, with stone walls on four sides.

When a shadow appeared here, the secret finally changed.

The hollow in the center of the disc, as if suddenly connected to some place, an indistinct, faint "wind" sound rose up, somewhat mournful.

That shadow didn't seem unusual. After entering the stone chamber, it walked up to the circular platform. Hearing a "wind sound" at this moment, it actually took a step back.

> The wind died down.

A voice, neither male nor female, echoed from within the void: "Did you get rid of it"

The voice of the shadow was also obviously disguised, very hoarse: "I value my own safety more than you."

"That is for the best." The voice from within echoed, "For our ideal of equality, you must live longer and die with more meaning."

The shadow paused, saying, “This mission failed. What about that Jiang Wang Should we send someone else or risk killing him”

"There's no need." A voice from the void said: "Though I failed to achieve my goal today, I've gleaned some insight into him. It's not a fruitless endeavor. The powerful being protecting him emanates Buddhist energy, which I can't conceal. It seems that Jiang Wang is not on the same side as Jiang Shu. Perhaps..."

A voice from within the void suddenly chimed in, coldly stating: "Many help those who attain the Tao, few help those who stray from it. This speaks volumes about Jiang Shu!"een right beside him all along." Chong Xuan tapped his temple. "And to think I was wasting time pondering this here.""It seems I truly underestimated Bao Zhongqing."“Who else would underestimate Baoma...
