3000 Years In The Meditation Phase! - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Zuo Yanfei of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army

At the city gate of White Yuan City, the Ding Country’s imperial city.

With an endless stream of people, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei entered the largest city in this country and in the Cang Continent.

“This city is actually even larger than our imperial city.”

As she looked at the surrounding rows of country-style buildings, Tang Ruowei sighed.

“Of course. There are ten countries in the Gu Continent and only three in the Cang Continent. In terms of national strength, they are definitely stronger.”

Bai Qiuran said as he walked, “By the way, Ruowei, from now on, your training has officially begun. From now on, I won’t help you. You’ll have to rely on yourself.”

“Then, Master, shall we go to the palace now?”

Tang Ruowei asked.

“I don’t know.”

Bai Qiuran replied expressionlessly.

“Fine.”

Seeing him like this, Tang Ruowei muttered to herself, “Then let’s go to the palace now.”

As a former princess of a country, the palace was equivalent to Tang Ruowei’s home. Therefore, even if she was in a foreign country, she could still acutely find the location of this country’s palace. After looking around, Tang Ruowei walked forward, and Bai Qiuran followed without a word, as if he was a spirit behind her.

After arriving at the entrance of the palace and asking a few more passers-by, Tang Ruowei successfully found the location where the bounty for the Crown Prince’s murderer was issued.

It was naturally impossible for anyone to participate in the bounty issued by the current emperor. There were people reviewing applications at the entrance and one had to pass the review to enter.

However, this was a piece of cake for Tang Ruowei, who had already reached the Foundation Establishment realm. She only needed to release her Earth Spirit Sword and let it circle around her. After being shocked, the two reviewers respectfully welcomed her in.

Behind the door was a patio. Other than Tang Ruowei and Bai Qiuran, there were already some other people inside.

Tang Ruowei looked around. Most of these people were martial artists at the Qi Refinement realm. However, other than her, there were still a few cultivators who had reached the Foundation Establishment realm. For example, the valiant sister who was wearing armor and had her black hair tied into a high ponytail and the two men and women standing side by side in the distance.

When Tang Ruowei entered, these cultivators also noticed her. The other cultivators looked at her and retracted their gazes, ignoring her. However, that valiant sister walked towards her.

“Hello.”

The sister with the black high ponytail stretched out her hand to Tang Ruowei.

“Are you from the Green Destiny Sword Sect?”

Tang Ruowei was stunned for a moment and subconsciously turned to look at Bai Qiuran. However, at this moment, Bai Qiuran looked up at the red pillar beside her and whistled, pretending not to notice her disciple’s gaze.

Tang Ruowei thought for a moment and became more vigilant. Then, she reached out and held this sister’s hand.

“Yes, I’m Tang Ruowei, a disciple of the Green Destiny Sword Sect. I wonder who this sister is…”

“Zuo Yanfei, a first-class soldier of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army.”

The valiant sister raised a token and replied with a smile.

“So you’re from the Divine Martial Heavenly Army.”

After Tang Ruowei confirmed the token, she smiled and said, “I’ve heard a lot about you.”

The Divine Martial Heavenly Army sounded like the name of a certain army, but in fact, it was one of the five major sects of the Righteous Dao Alliance, the same as the Green Destiny Sword Sect.

The five major sects of the Righteous Dao Alliance each had their own outstanding aspects. With Jue Yunzi as the leader, the Green Destiny Sword Sect was unrivaled as no cultivator of the same level could surpass him. Among the remaining four sects, the Heavenly Saint Buddhist Sect was the most resistant, the Mystic Academy was the most technical, and the Immortal City Jade Tower was the richest. The Divine Martial Heavenly Army was the sect with the most people.

This sect was established by a certain human general who had survived the human-demon war back then. The name of the sect also came from the banner of a certain army in the human army that had its order disrupted in the later stages of the war.

The hierarchy and management of this sect were all the same as it was in the army back then. The main direction of the sect’s research was also military law and battle formations. The cultivation techniques and moves of the sect were also similar to the style of the sect. They were bold and unrestrained.

In the Divine Martial Heavenly Army, other than the flags of the various battalions, there were basically no Dharma treasures. Instead, they were replaced by divine weapons, which were even better than mortal weapons. The combat methods of the disciples of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army also more closely resembled the methods of the generals of the mortal world. They controlled spears, spears, axes, and battle axes and were good at close combat equipment.

Such a combat method made the mortals near the headquarters of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army call them divine generals.

“Nice to meet you. I’ve also been looking forward to meeting someone from the Green Destiny Sword Sect for a long time.”

Zuo Yanfei smiled and then looked at Bai Qiuran, who was standing behind Tang Ruowei.

“Is this your junior brother?”

“Uh, he’s…”

While Tang Ruowei was still hesitating, Bai Qiuran turned around and revealed a very innocent smile.

“That’s right, Sister. I came out to train with Senior Sister this time. My aptitude is poor. Master said that I can only come out to see the world if I follow Senior Sister.”

“Damn, Master, you can’t do this!” Tang Ruowei thought to herself.

Tang Ruowei was shocked and surprised at how skilled this guy was at pretending to be young.

However, on careful thought, she realized that when she first met Bai Qiuran, he still gave off the feeling that he was a serious swordsman. However, as Tang Ruowei interacted with him, she discovered that after getting familiar with this person, he became more and more unrestrained and his words became more and more coquettish.

“Yes, I see.”

Zuo Yanfei smiled.

“My name is Zuo Yanfei. What’s your name?”

“My surname is Bai. Sister Zuo Yanfei can just call me Little Bai.”

Bai Qiuran smiled.

Tang Ruowei, who was behind Zuo Yanfei, watched this scene with a very complicated expression. She wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Hmm?”

Noticing the strange expression on Tang Ruowei’s face, Zuo Yanfei thought for a moment and seemed to have misunderstood something.

She smiled at Tang Ruowei and said, “Looks like this Junior Brother Bai is very important to Miss Tang…”

“Just call me Ruowei.”

Tang Ruowei sighed and said faintly, “Sister Zuo Yanfei, you’ve clearly misunderstood. In short, it’s not what you think…”

Bai Qiuran also helped “explain”.

“Sister Zuo, my senior sister has cultivated a special cultivation technique. Her true essence will occasionally show signs of… stagnation. It’ll be fine after she gets familiar with it.”

“Oh, I see.”

Zuo Yanfei nodded, not fully understanding.

“As expected of the cultivation technique of the Green Destiny Sword Sect, I don’t understand it at all.”

At this moment, the people from the Ding Country also arrived. An old man in a black official’s uniform with a white crane, a sea, and a bright sun embroidered on the chest arrived at the patio accompanied by two saber guards.

“I’m the Minister of Justice of the Ding Country. Immortals and heroes, good day.”

He cupped his hands at everyone present.

“I believe everyone’s goal in coming here is very clear, so I won’t say anything else. We won’t restrict your methods. It doesn’t matter if you cooperate or do it alone. If you cooperate, you will have to determine the distribution of the rewards yourselves. This time, His Majesty has added a reward. As long as you capture the murderer of the crown prince, regardless of whether the other party is dead or alive, other than the content of the reward token previously, you can also receive a third-grade immortal grass that has been kept in the national treasury for a long time. As for determining the identity of the murderer, it will be left to our country’s consecrators. We want to see the person if he’s alive and the corpse if he’s dead. That’s all.”
