Chapters Nine to Twelve: Demonic Assault on the City, Howlin

    

s soon as the new magistrate arrives, I can go back to the Demon Suppression Division.On the other side.Rongyuan left the government office and stepped into the crowd, then came to a street corner.Let...In the endless wilderness.

Only a multitude of corpses lay strewn about, each one withered like a mummy. It seemed as though every last drop of blood had been drained from their bodies.

Looking at the attire of those corpses, they were mostly made of rough animal skins, with some coarse linen clothes. Their skin was dark and rough, their faces rugged, quite different from ordinary humans.

If anyone from the Great Wilderness Palace were here, they would recognize these corpses as belonging to barbarians.

“Kill!”

"Go quickly and report to the High Priest, a demon has attacked!"

On the earthen ramparts, built one by one from yellow soil, barbarian commanders roared their commands.

Please note that I only translated the text content within the tags. The HTML tags themselves were not translated.

In front of him.

A large number of barbarian corpses, transformed into undead, are attacking relentlessly. On the city walls, the barbarians fight with all their might to defend, but they are already at a disadvantage.

"Fearless struggle!"

A cold voice echoed in the void, and in the next instant, a terrifying aura of darkness erupted, sweeping out in all directions.

Some barbarians were too slow to react and were instantly frozen solid by the aura, collapsing stiffly to the ground.

"Oh no, a big demon has appeared!"

Seeing that heart-chillingly sinister aura, the leading barbarian general's face turned as white as a sheet.

Big demon!

For the barbarians, it was a nightmare come true.

At the same time.

Several terrifying auras rose in the city.

Three demonic spirits soared into the air, their faces grim as they stared at the formidable demon standing aloft.

One of the demons sank his voice and shouted: "My lord, our clan has always cooperated with the demon tribe. Why are you attacking our barbarian clan now Aren't you afraid of the punishment from the Demon Saint"

Many barbarian territories are isolated and lack communication.

Up to this point.

The news of the Ghost Saint's fall had not yet spread throughout the entire barbarian tribe.

"Demon Saint Retribution"

Wang Mu Bai smiled, but the smile was extremely cold and frightening.

"Since you wish to speak with the Demon Saint, then this deity will send you all to meet him!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

A palm strike is unleashed.

The palm force, condensed from sinister energy, directly shattered the space like fragile ceramics.

"Oh no!"

Three demons upon seeing this, their expressions all changed.

They acted without hesitation, joining forces to resist.

Please note that I only translated the text within the > tags. I left the HTML tags as they are.

Boom--

Two torrents of power slammed into each other in mid-air, and space shattered once more.

Next.

Three demons trembled all over, coughing blood incessantly.

“Is this all you have You dare to oppose me”

Wang Mubai's eyes were filled with disdain.

If all three demon spirits were at the third rank, then it would be quite interesting.

But unfortunately.

The three demon spirits before me are only at the second rank.

That's it.

Though he was not quite an ant in front of him, he wasn't far off.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

One step forward.

An overwhelming might erupted, black energy sweeping across the heavens and earth, as if nightfall had descended.

The next moment.

Another palm strike pressed down, and a demon spirit was struck, its flesh shattered, falling directly from the void.

The other two demons, seeing this, were both pale with fright.

"You all shall die!"

Wang Mu Bai's heart surged with killing intent, and with another punch, he nearly destroyed the other demon spirit.

In the previous battles, he hadn't gained any advantage at all, which had made him incredibly angry.

Alas.

>

The Qin Empire's strength was overwhelming, and with Shen Changqing now in command, Wang Mubai wouldn't dare to act recklessly there.

Now, striking the barbarians is merely a veiled way to vent one's rage.

Thus.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He naturally wouldn't have any mercy.

Boom!!

Each strike shatters the void.

Very soon.

Then, the first demon spirit will be utterly destroyed.

The other two demons, seeing this, ignored their severe injuries and disregarded the other barbarians below. They immediately turned and tried to flee.

But before a powerful demon, a second-rank demon spirit warrior wouldn't even have the chance to escape.

A hand, as if it could cover the void, directly grabbed the two demon spirits.

Squeeze it hard.

Pfft!

Two demonic spirits exploded their physical bodies, transforming into two clouds of blood mist that scattered across the sky.

Wang Mubai opened his mouth and sucked in a breath. The blood mist, as if being pulled by an invisible force, directly fell into his stomach.

"Burp!"

I burped slightly.

Wang Mu Bai looked again at the terrified barbarians below, a cruel smile spreading across his face.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

“Report, the city of Tuhuang has been attacked by a powerful demon. Many demonic spirits will die in battle, and hundreds of thousands of barbarians will be slaughtered.”

“Report, the city of Liehuo has been breached, with over half of the army killed or wounded.”

“Report—”

Inside the Hall of Prediction, messages were relayed one after another, causing the faces of numerous priests within the hall to turn ashen with fear.

It's been a long time.

Egs turned his head to look at an elderly man wearing a crown. His jet-black eyes seemed to flicker with some emotion.

"Your Majesty, it was you who originally proposed cooperating with the demon tribe. Now that the demon tribe has directly betrayed the alliance, how do you view this matter"

In the tribal era, imperial power and divine authority coexisted.

In theocracy, the priest's temple is paramount, whereas in monarchy, it is centered around the imperial lineage of successive barbarian emperors.

The old man standing beside Igis is the current emperor of the barbarians.

Oh, mighty Emperor!

"The alliance itself is formed on the basis of mutual benefit. Now that the Ghost Saint has fallen in Da Qin, and the demonic race has betrayed the agreement, it's likely they have other plans. But regardless of their intentions, since they have broken the agreement, they become enemies of my clan."

If they are the enemy, then fight them with all your might.

The emperor’s voice was low.

Although he seemed elderly, an extremely fierce aura emanated from him at all times. The surging blood in his body made him seem like a terrifying beast.

Upon hearing this.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Iggas remained calm: "There were three powerful demons who attacked our clan this time. With our current strength, we are simply no match for them."

In fact, the priests' hall had already calculated our clan's future several months ago.

How did it go

The mighty emperor's eyes narrowed.

The temple's seers, he still believed in them.

The Barbarians' journey from obscurity to prominence is inextricably linked to the Temple of Priests.

Iggs said, "Destruction, all I see is destruction. The vast wilderness has been swallowed by blood and fire, and all the powerful barbarians have perished."

"There may be a way to resolve this!"

This is the translated text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Man Emperor's heart sank.

If what the other party is saying is true, then this barbarian problem could be serious.

Clan extermination!

Please note that the original content was empty.

It's not impossible.

Even a mighty Zhou dynasty has fallen to ruin, now nothing but a desolate wasteland.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He questioned himself that although the barbarian's strength was great, it couldn't possibly be greater than the Zhou Dynasty.

The strength of the two.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

In the opinion of the Manhuang Emperor, it was at most a draw.

Now that the Zhou Dynasty has fallen, and the barbarian tribes are also facing their demise, it is not impossible.

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That's what I thought.

Even the Maharaja had some regrets in his heart.

He regretted cooperating with the demon clan, only to end up like someone trying to skin a tiger.

The demise of the Zhou Dynasty was inextricably linked to the demonic tribe. Now, even the barbarian tribes are threatened by them.

Take a deep breath.

The mighty king's gaze fell upon Igges, seeking the answers he desired from him.

As the saying goes, there is a glimmer of hope in this world. Any desperate situation has a way out, and our Manchu people's way out comes from two places.

"Which two places"

The first one is the Qin Dynasty.

"Qin Dynasty"

The Emperor's expression was startled.

He thought of many possibilities, but he had never considered that the barbarian's way of life would be related to the Qin Dynasty.

Igg stated in a low voice, "Although Gu Xuanji has passed away, he bestowed the title of General Commander of Qin before his death. This General Commander of Qin was originally the Guardian of Nan You Mansion. He later beheaded the demonic saint at Yinsheng Pass, allowing him to be further elevated."

It can be said that although Gu Xuanji has fallen, the national strength of Qin hasn't decreased much, but rather it is even stronger than before.

With our current strength, if we continue to oppose Qin, we will undoubtedly be no match for them.

So I thought, it's better to make peace with the Qin Dynasty and ask them to send powerful warriors to help. That way, those demon beasts wouldn't be a problem anymore.

Peace!

The mighty emperor's brows were tightly furrowed.

“Our tribe killed so many Qin people in Nanyou Prefecture, how could the Qin state be willing to negotiate peace with us”

“Your Majesty may not know, although our tribe has killed many Qin people, the Qin people have also slaughtered many of our tribe members. Besides, if our tribe shows absolute sincerity and promises to never disturb the Great Wilderness Mansion, I believe the Qin Dynasty will not refuse.”

It's better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

In the face of profit, I believe that all problems will cease to be problems.

Egs was full of confidence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If Gu Xuanji were in power, he would know this possibility was extremely slim.

If we were to say that Gu Xing was in power, then it wouldn't necessarily be the case.

The new emperor Qin, although he had not been ostentatious in the past, was still known to some extent by the barbarian tribes.

The other party's personality tends to be conservative. If this opportunity can be used to alleviate the crisis of Dahuang Mansion, there is no reason for the other party to refuse at all.

The mighty Emperor pondered for a moment, and also felt that what the other party said had some truth to it.

"This is certainly something we can try, but this emperor feels the success rate wouldn't be high. Besides this method, what is the second one"

"Resurrection of the Barbarian God!"

Egs spoke slowly, each word carefully.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Upon hearing this.

The Emperor's expression changed abruptly.

The other priests in the Temple of Sacrifice also paled.

Amazing!

This name, all barbarians are very familiar with.

But for many barbarians, the barbarian gods are merely figures of legend, a belief that may not necessarily be real.

Only the Manhuang and those in the Temple of Priests know this.

Very godly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

> It truly exists.

The Mighty Emperor's face was grave: "Resurrecting the Barbarian God requires a tremendous price, and although the Barbarian God's body still remains within our tribe after all these years, whether it can be successfully resurrected is still a question.

"A Manticore is a divine being, even if it falls, it will not truly die. As long as its body remains, there is hope for resurrection."

Just as you said, the price to revive the Great Demon God is too high. Until it's absolutely necessary, we will never do such a thing.

Igs shook his head slightly.

The Barbarian God is the greatest trump card of the barbarians, but it is also a trump card that can hardly be used.

The reason the barbarians were willing to cooperate with demons to attack the Great Qin Empire was to plunder enough power to resurrect their barbarian god.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But unfortunately.

Before the barbarians could succeed, Shen Changqing disrupted their plans, forcing them to temporarily retreat from the Dahuang Mansion.

And so, to this very moment.

The demons have broken their pact, and in a short time, they will have no further opportunity to attack the Qin Dynasty.

After a long while.

The barbarian emperor nodded.

"Alright, let's send envoys to Qin first. If we can get reinforcements, that would be best. If not, then we'll have to consider whether or not to resurrect the Man God again."

The Dai Viet and the Dali.

He didn't consider it at all.

First.

The two sides were very far apart from the barbarians.

Furthermore.

The Daliang and Dàyuè kingdoms lacked the military might to provide significant support even if they wished to aid the barbarian tribes.

On the contrary.

The Qin Dynasty's strength has not diminished but rather increased. If it truly wished to support the barbarians, then everything would be much easier.

Great Qin.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

National capital.

After his cultivation breakthrough with the integration of the Immortal Body, Shen Changqing returned to the Demon Suppression Division.

>

This time.

>

He did not alarm anyone.

Mu Cangwu's divine powers were unleashed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared within his own courtyard.

Suddenly.

A dark shadow came rushing toward me.

Shen Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, his eyelids not twitching at all.

Very soon.

The shadow stopped right in front of me. It was a four-winged beast, as big as a Great Dane and just as ferocious.

Tian Kui!

...And beside Tian Kui, a figure stood quietly and peacefully.

This is a tricky request! I can't see the content within the " " tags. If you provide the actual text *between* those tags, I can happily translate it into English for you. Let me know what's inside!

With a wave of his hand, Shen Changqing retracted his incarnation.

A drop of fresh blood returned the soul to its body, and the physical energy fluctuated slightly. The soul was also slightly replenished as a result.

"In other words, now that the soul and blood essence are integrated, as long as the blood essence is abundant, it can make up for the deficiency of the soul. And when the soul is abundant, it can also make up for the depletion of the blood essence. The two complement each other."

In this way, every time I improve my level, I can replenish the consumption to a certain extent.

"Then why don't I, before I break through, give myself a little bloodletting first And then after the breakthrough is successful, I'll swallow it back. That way, who knows, my strength might be increased."

He raised an eyebrow slightly.

This thought, it just came to me for the first time.

Think about it carefully.

The possibility is still quite high.

Just like before, absorbing that drop of incarnation back in, one's qi and blood had gained a slight increase.

Although that slight enhancement is negligible overall, it makes a difference when accumulated over time.

Before, Shen Changqing hadn't thought about this.

I now have an idea.

Then we can only wait for the next breakthrough, and experiment well again.

After all, quantity change leads to qualitative change. If given enough energy, perhaps I could make further breakthroughs in my Myriad Tribulations True Form without relying on killing points.

To put it simply.

The aftermath of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Form is also about accumulating power.

He glanced at Tian Kui.

He squeezed a drop of fresh blood from his palm, then retracted the soul power within it before placing the drop of blood in front of the other person.

Boom!!

Blood appeared, even without the blessing of a soul, there was an terrifying power resonating within the courtyard.

Felt the power of that drop of blood.

Tian Kui's eyes held both longing and a great deal of apprehension.

The third stage of the True Self manifested, causing Shen Changqing's blood to undergo further transformation.

Ordinary blood is equivalent to a powerful low-level demon.

Although it is a peak master-level ferocious beast, its strength is only about this level. Devouring existences of the same level is not that easy.

Even a single drop of blood is so powerful.

Tian Kui found it hard to imagine what level Shen Changqing's strength had reached now.

"Master, could you help me suppress my blood power, allowing me to devour"

In the depths of one's mind.

Tian Kui's voice rang out.

>

Shen Changqing nodded slightly, his finger tapping on the blood. A powerful force sealed the blood's energy, weakening the imposing aura it emitted.

"I have sealed the power of blood. You will wear it down little by little yourself."

Thank you, Master!

>

Tian Kui's eyes were excited, he couldn't wait to open his mouth and swallow the blood.

Although the Crimson Vulture clan's upper limit is at the peak of Master, there may not be no chance to break through.

Followed Shen Changqing.

It had a premonition, maybe it would be the one to break the limits of the red-tailed hawk clan.

After swallowing the blood.

Tian Kui immediately lay on the ground, silently refining the blood.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Seeing this.

Shen Changqing didn't pay much attention. He went straight to the martial arts pavilion.

The person still sitting at the main gate was Zhong Ning.

"The master is here!"

Upon seeing the arrival, this Elder Wu from the Martial Pavilion hurriedly rose from his reclining chair.

Shen Changqing nodded. "Are all the people from Wugong back now"

It took a very long time to deduce the true form of the tribulation thunder, and then there was the breakthrough, which also took a lot of time.

Three months' time.

It can be said that it has long passed.

Upon hearing this.

Zhong Ning nodded. "Most people have returned."

"Most people"

Shen Changqing's eyes were slightly cold.

"In that case, there are still some people who don't take me, the master of this place, seriously, huh"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Some people might have entered a secret realm and lost contact, or they may have accidentally fallen to their deaths. Master, please calm down..."

Zhong Ning's face showed a look of difficulty.

Although Shen Changqing didn't show anger on his face, a powerful aura emanated from him, making him feel immense pressure.

That kind of oppression.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

...It made them all feel as if their blood had turned to ice.

At that.

Shen Changqing glanced at the other party. Although the coldness on his face had subsided, he was still very indifferent.

"Since they didn't come back, let's just do what we said before and kick them all out of the Wugue."

“Yes!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhong Ning did not say anything else.

"Let's go, I should also see the current members of Wugue."

Shen Changqing's face returned to a faint smile, and he took the lead into the room.

Zhong Ning saw this and let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He also followed behind the other party.

Compared to last time.

There are quite a few more people in the Wugong Pavilion this time.

Most of them are comprehending the true meaning at the fifth layer, while some are reviewing files in the third layer.

And some cultivated in the first layer's inner room.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As for the second layer.

Then there wasn't a single person.

That is all.

Shen Changqing wasn't strange in any way.

This tag is invalid.

should be followed by a closing bracket ">". Please provide the correct HTML code for translation. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Those who can enter the Martial Pavilion are all masters of the Grandmaster realm. Those who reach this realm all have their own paths to follow.

Though there are many martial arts at the second level, in reality, they don't hold much significance for most people.

It's time to watch.

I've already seen it.

It's better to study other people's files, you might gain some insights.

“The master has arrived, you lot should quickly pay respects!”

As he stepped into the third layer, Zhong Ning spoke in a low voice.

The other members of the martial arts hall saw this, and they all unconsciously raised their heads. After seeing Shen Changqing's appearance, they were stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got up.

“Greetings, Master!”

"You're welcome."

Shen Changqing nodded slightly, his expression unchanged.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

"I am deeply pleased that all of you have responded to the call and returned. This gathering is not without purpose."

Next, everyone stay here at the Wugong Pavilion until I notify you.

After some time, I will personally explain martial arts to the people of Wugong. I hope that you will also gain something from it at that time.

Whether they are martial artists from the Jianghu, demon hunters from the Zhenmo Si, or even those from the Wu Ge, their strength is all too weak.

As for him at this moment.

Anyone who doesn't reach the rank of Wang Jie’s military governor simply can't stand out.

Even Wang Jie, the garrison commander, was no different from an ant in Shen Changqing's presence today.

Although.

In a world where the strong rule, personal strength is crucial.

However, the overall strength of the races is also not to be underestimated.

If you say.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Every member of the human race is a weakling. Only if one person is strong, then the entire human race will be his burden. They will not only be unable to help him in any way, but will also hold him back.

Such a human race is not what Shen Changqing wants.

What he truly desired was for the human race to be filled with powerful individuals, so that often, they wouldn't need him to intervene. Instead, the human race could solve their problems through their own strength.

Back in the day.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

They can wait a few months, completely.

It's worth waiting years, even if it takes a few, to hear words of wisdom from such a powerful being.

Subsequently.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing walked around the Martial Pavilion and finally returned to his own courtyard.

To explain martial arts, one still needs to sort out oneself.

Previously, creating the Thunder God's true form was already a thorough process, but it wasn't perfect. This time, making a new breakthrough and combing through it again will definitely yield new gains.

When the explanations about martial arts are organized and polished, there will be no loopholes in the teachings.

As he left.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

All those in the Wugong still felt their spirits stirred.

The first person of the Great Qin will explain martial arts.

This is the message.

It's certainly something to look forward to.

>

Apart from honing his own martial arts, Shen Changqing also intended to use himself as a foundation and directly write a comprehensive treatise on martial arts.

"Although the Demon Suppression Division claims to the outside world that it has collected all martial arts under heaven, in fact, the truly profound martial arts of the Demon Suppression Division only stop at the peak of the Grandmaster."

Before I broke through, the peak of the master was the pinnacle of martial arts.

Even if we tried to take another step forward, there's no way we could.

Therefore, martial arts naturally stagnate at this level.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

To break through limits, relying on a single method is not enough. You need corresponding martial arts skills to progress even faster.

In the study, he sat there calmly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But my mind was dwelling on other matters.

Please note that the original content was empty. I have kept the HTML tags as instructed.

Although there were paths beyond the peak of ancient masters in ancient times, the ancient era has long since perished, and its transmission has been largely severed.

> That's all.

After the Great Masters, the ancient times also took a crooked path.

Fengshen Qiyun.

Choosing the so-called realm boundary explains everything.

Although...

Though the Realm Boundary stage is comparable to that of a great demon, in reality, it is quite weak. It is far inferior to when I was a Grandmaster.

And.

Once breaking through to the Immortal Golden Body Realm, the Domain Realm would be nothing but pathetic and weak.

"If I were to base it on my own cultivation, after the Grandmaster realm, it would naturally be the Immortal Golden Body realm. But if we were to classify it based on the realms of demons or ancient cultivators, when I was at the Grandmaster realm, I could actually divide it into two realms."

In the early stages, it's comparable to a high-level demon, in the later stages, it's comparable to a great demon. Once it breaks through its limits, it will ascend to become a Demon Saint.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Everyone says realms are just a label, but if we could define them, it would give others a clear understanding.

Shen Changqing's fingers tapped lightly on the table.

Ancient Realm.

Actually, not many have spread out. To say that it's deeply rooted in people's hearts is even more impossible.

To be straight with you.

What the realm beyond that of a Grandmaster is like, is entirely up to him to say.

That's where things get interesting.

Shaking head.

This is a test.

Let me know if you have anything else you'd like me to translate!

He's not going to think about this problem for now.

First, organize the general framework of martial arts to ensure the continuation of human martial arts. Then, redefine the boundaries of each realm.

Shen Changqing had a general idea in mind, now he just waited for the follow-up time.

Half a month's time.

Organize martial arts.

Arranging the summary of martial arts.

It's not an easy thing either.

This has nothing to do with one's realm of being, because the higher a person's realm, the more detailed things they need to organize.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

Therefore.

>

As a result, the time spent naturally increased.

For half a month, he remained motionless, sitting there. The file folders on his desk were still blank.

Just as he was about to put pen to paper.

Suddenly, Shen Changqing's hand froze. With a thought, the door bolt opened automatically.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

Come in!

The voice was calm and steady.

The next moment.

The door was pushed open.

The Eastern Mandate walked in from outside.

>

“Didn't I disturb Zhenzhun Shen”

"Dongfang Zhen Shou chuckled, 'I wonder what brings you here, Zhen Shou'

"

Shen Changqing shook his head and smiled wryly.

It's not really an imposition.

Anyway, since I already had an idea in mind, it was much easier to write it down later.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Upon hearing this.

Eastern Emperor also smiled faintly: “Just now, there was news from the Imperial Court, wanting me to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony with you.”

"Court affairs"

Shen Changqing, through the window, saw the bright light outside, his brow slightly moved.

“I remember that by this time, the morning meeting should have ended already.”

Although he didn't participate in the meeting, he still had some understanding of when it took place.

It's almost noon now, it's impossible to start the meeting at this time.

Dongfang Zhao shook his head: "The court meeting has naturally ended, but just now news came that barbarians have entered the capital. If I'm not mistaken, this impromptu court session is probably related to the barbarians."

"Barbarians!"

Shen Changqing's expression changed.

This news came as a surprise to him.

The barbarians and the Qin Dynasty had accumulated hundreds of years of hatred. Now that the other party openly entered the capital city, there must be another reason behind this.

...That's all I can think of.

Shen Changqing once again turned his gaze to Dongfang Zhao, waiting for the other party's next words.

During this time of seclusion, I've been cut off from outside news. However, the other party may not be in the same situation. Even Tian Cha Wei, a force beyond Qin, likely has considerable influence.

>

The barbarian side.

If there is truly something amiss, it will surely not escape the watchful eyes of the Celestial Guard.

>

He noticed his gaze.

The Eastern Emperor nodded: “Not long ago, news came that demons were causing havoc among the barbarians. The few great demons who fled from Yinsheng Pass seemed to have set their sights on the barbarians.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The barbarians are in great turmoil at the moment. Sending people to Qin now must be related to this matter.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing suddenly understood.

It turns out the little boat of friendship capsized.

He had expected this to happen.

After all, barbarians and demons are never the same race. Their cooperation is merely a matter of interest.

Those who are not of my tribe have different hearts.

This can be placed anywhere, and it is completely applicable.

Once the interests of both parties are gone, it's perfectly normal to turn against each other.

It's just that Shen Changqing was the exception.

The friendship between barbarians and demons has sunk. They would actually choose to come to the Qin dynasty. Don't they really think the Qin dynasty's capacity has reached such a level

"That's right."

Then, Dongfang Chao suddenly spoke again.

When the Da'huang Mansion was completely retaken, all the cities that had been captured by barbarians became dead cities. The bodies of the people were piled up into mountains, as if the barbarians used them for some kind of sacrifice.

"There are also big problems here."

The other party's nonchalant few words sounded to Shen Changqing like a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Here is your text translated to English:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! I'm happy to help.

The battle in the Dahuang Mansion earlier.

The territory conquered by barbarians is quite large.

The people who live there, even if they don't have a hundred million or several million, there are thousands and hundreds of thousands.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

His chest heaved a few times.

Chen Changqing rose from his seat.

"Since Your Majesty wishes for us to go, then let us all go and have a look."

The Palace.

In the imperial court.

Civil and military officials gathered together. Emperor Gu Xing sat on the throne, and below him stood three barbarians.

The first person had a rugged face and an imposing presence, bearing the air of a great general.

Now, in the court, the other party is speaking eloquently.

“Your Majesty, our clan is now sincerely seeking peace with the Qin Dynasty. We were previously unaware of the events in Dahua Prefecture, as someone acted without authorization. Now, we have imprisoned that individual.”

As long as the Qin Dynasty is willing, our tribe will be able to deliver heads in no time.

As for the losses inflicted on the Great Wilderness Prefecture, our clan is willing to make reparations and swear an oath never to infringe upon the borders of Qin. I wonder what His Majesty the Emperor thinks

As soon as the words were spoken,

Some people's faces changed color, while others glared angrily.

Above the imperial throne.

Although Gu Xing's expression remained calm, his heart was filled with a complex mix of emotions.

Agree

Still disagree.

Actually, deep down he still leans towards the former.

As I have just taken office, I have no achievements to speak of. If I could accept the barbarian's peace offer, it would certainly be a noteworthy entry in history.

>

Please note that the original content you provided was empty. I have simply removed the > and replaced it with >

. If you provide me with actual text to translate, I'll be happy to help!

However.

As for the peace talks with the barbarians, Gu Xing did not dare to agree on his own accord.

If there really is a problem inside, then you'll be in some trouble.

Although you sit on the throne, it doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.

Conversely.

The responsibility pressure is greater, and if one step goes wrong, the impact is immeasurable.

... There was a long silence.

Gu Xing looked at the other officials.

"The barbarian messenger's words, I trust, are all clear to you. What are your thoughts on this matter"

As soon as the words left his mouth.

At that very moment, someone stepped forward.

“Your Majesty, the barbarians are cunning. Even if we make peace now, they may not keep it in the future. It would be better to let demons destroy them. For our great Qin, this would be a solution that eliminates all future trouble.”

"Your words are mistaken, my lord."

Kurzan raised an eyebrow, cutting the other person off directly.

“Our tribe originally harassed the Great Wilderness Prefecture only to survive. If we could make peace with the Qin Dynasty and trade with each other, our tribe could get basic resources. Why would we waste lives attacking the Qin Dynasty”

>

To put it simply, we're all just trying to survive.

>

"I believe that if the Qin Dynasty were in the position of a barbarian tribe as I originally imagined, it would also make the same choice."

Speaking of which.

>

He looked at Gu Xing, slightly bowing his head in a gesture of respect.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Some courtiers nodded slightly when they heard this.

In their view, what Kulzan said was indeed fine.

The barbarian environment is harsh.

...and in addition, the population is large.

If there aren't enough resources, a considerable number of people die each year simply from hunger.

Gu Xing heard this and did not immediately reply.

This is when.

Kurlzan continued, “Besides, demons are our common enemy. If we let the demons wipe out my clan, then all of my clansmen could be transformed into corpses by them.”

Qin Huang thought to himself, "I wait for tens of millions of barbarians to turn into corpses and, driven by demons, launch a full-scale attack on the Great Wilderness Mansion."

"By then, I'm afraid there will be bloodshed again!"

As soon as this was said, many people turned pale with fright.

Although the other party's words are somewhat alarmist, they are not without possibility.

Please note that the " > " symbols were not part of your input and have been removed from my response. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If the barbarians were to be destroyed.

It is possible that demons and evil spirits could drive corpses to attack the Great Qin.

If things really happened, the subsequent casualties would no longer be few.

Gu Xing's heart also trembled slightly.

He knew.

What Kulzan said makes sense.

At this moment.

As the commander-in-chief Gao Chouli who had returned from the Great Wilderness Mansion, his face was as cold as ice.

"What does my Qin Empire fear about a single battle Barbarian tribes dare to slaughter the people of my Qin! This is an unforgivable grudge. If we were to be destroyed by demons, it would be truly satisfying."

“Wei Dutong, I know you have a lot of prejudice against my tribe, but there are no immortals in war. Why do you have to let the other people of Qin suffer for your own selfish desires”

Kurzan's face was also slightly cold.

Just then.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A calm voice came in from outside the main hall.

"In the imperial court, where did that barking noise come from It's really annoying!"

As soon as those words were spoken.

All the expressions on everyone in court froze.

Kurlzan's face darkened. He turned to look at the entrance of the hall, where two figures were walking in slowly.

"Who are you, to dare speak so recklessly here!"

He recognized Dongfang Zao, but he didn't recognize the person beside him.

and then spoke.

It's exactly the other person.

Thereafter.

Kuerzan once again bowed to Gu Xing and then looked at Shen Changqing's face with displeasure: "With the emperor present, you openly insult him. Do you have any respect for rank and order"

At the moment he was speaking, all the civil and military officials bowed to greet the newcomer.

"Greetings, Sir Shen!"

Commander of the Great Qin Garrison.

His status was equivalent to that of a foreign relative emperor of the Qin Dynasty. In terms of identity and status, he was not much lower than the true Emperor of Qin.

Everyone who sees Shen Changqing, regardless of their position in the court, must bow and greet him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Sir Shen!

At the sound of that title, Kael'thas was startled.

There are many people surnamed Shen in the world, who might cause civil and military officials to greet and pay respects. And among those surnamed Shen, there is only one.

At this time.

Gu Xing felt a weight lifted from his chest and a gentle smile appeared on his face: "It turns out it's Shen Zhen Shou here. Shen Zhen Shou arrived just in time. Now that there's this matter with the barbarians, the Demon Suppression Division would also like to share its opinion."

A little talk.

This allowed Kul Tiran to be completely sure, who the visitor was.

Commander of Great Qin!

Shen Changqing!

>

Thinking about what he had just said, he was momentarily lost in thought. But then he thought of his identity and the barbarians he represented, and his mind settled once again.

Watching the person step closer and closer.

Kulezan clasped his fists: "So you're the Great Qin Garrison Commander. This humble one is blind to Mount Tai, and I hope Commander Shen will forgive me."

He spoke with some enthusiasm.

But the other party turned a blind eye to it, making things rather awkward.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

Having arrived in the center of the hall, Shen Changqing slightly cupped his fist.

Gu Xing said, "Come here, give him a seat!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“You needn't offer me a seat.”

Shen Changqing waved his hand, and the eunuch who was about to fetch a seat couldn't help but look at the person on the imperial throne.

Gu Xing slightly waved his hand, indicating to stop.

“As for what was said in the court earlier, I did hear quite a bit. On this matter, I wonder what your Majesty thinks”

Shen Changqing asked a question.

Upon hearing this.

>

Gu Xing shook his head slightly: "This matter, I'm not quite sure what to do now. It just so happens that I want to hear Shen Zhenhou's opinion on the barbarians wanting to make peace with my Qin Dynasty."

He was really struggling to make a decision.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Is it war or peace

Every decision can have unforeseen consequences.

If the decision is made by someone else, then there's no problem.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

Especially the person in front of me.

He was the general of a Qin garrison.

The other party has made a decision. If it's right, even this Emperor Qin can add another achievement to his name. If it's wrong, the one who leaves a stain on history won't be him.

So.

Gu Xingning would rather throw this problem out than worry about it himself.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Regarding his thoughts.

Shen Changqing didn't seem to care much, just with a somewhat cold expression.

"Not long ago, I happened to hear some news from the Demon Suppression Division. In the past, the barbarian tribes attacked Dahuang Mansion and occupied a considerable amount of territory. Later, the barbarians were defeated and retreated, and Dahuang Mansion returned to the control of the Qin Dynasty."

This is a test.

However, the cities that fell into the hands of barbarians, when the barbarians retreated, had already become dead cities.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

All the common people were slaughtered and made into altars by the barbarians with evil means. According to rough estimates from the Demon Suppression Office, tens of millions of people died as a result alone.

If Your Majesty wishes to make peace with the barbarians, have you considered how you will answer the families of those who died in the Great Wilderness Prefecture

That's all.

The court was once again in turmoil.

Here is the translation of your content:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The news that Shen Changqing spoke of came as a complete surprise to some people.

Although Dahuangfu has been retaken, it doesn't mean that every official can get specific information inside.

Gu Xing's heart turned cold.

To be honest.

When he was still a prince, he truly did not pay attention to these matters and therefore had no idea about the losses suffered by the Dahua Prefecture.

Upon hearing this, a surge of anger arose within me.

Is Shen Zhenzhou speaking the truth

"The capital of Weidu is in Dahuang Mansion, I believe General Weidutong knows this very well."

Shen Changqing turned his head to look at Wei Gao.

As for this person, he had some understanding of him originally.

Upon hearing this.

Wei Gao's face was as cold as ice: "Your Majesty, Shen's words are true. The barbarians are extremely cruel, simply appalling. I will never share the same heaven with them."

His words completely confirmed the truth of Shen Changqing's statement.

Aware of the crowd's anger.

This tag doesn't contain any text to translate. Let me know if you have another phrase or sentence you'd like translated!

Ku'erzan hurriedly explained: "War deaths are normal. Many of my people fell in the hands of Qin during the Great Desolate Prefecture's reign. Now that the war is over, everything has passed."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Moreover, my clan is also willing to make reparations. As long as Qin opens its mouth, our clan will definitely not hesitate to do anything we can.

"Besides, the same goes for my people. If we fall to demons and monsters, they will surely attack Qin next. Why would the Emperor of Qin sacrifice more living lives for those who are already gone"

He was truly worried, what if the people of Great Qin became enraged and directly refused the aid request from him and his companions

That way.

But barbarians are a problem.

Gǔ Xīng suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Shěn Chángqīng.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

“What does Shen Zhenzhun think”

Now he has handed over all the decision-making power to the other party.

Shen Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, turned to face Kulzan, his expression cold: "What kind of courage do you have that allows your barbarian tribe to come here and threaten my Great Qin"

"Shen Zhen, don't misunderstand—"

"What kind of confidence do you have to think that the Barbarian tribes being destroyed by demons would threaten the Great Qin"

"The Demon Clan is inherently my enemy. If my clan were to be destroyed, the Demon Clan's target would undoubtedly be Qin. This much should be beyond doubt!"

Kurlzan frowned.

> As for Shen Changqing's step-by-step questioning, he was very dissatisfied in his heart.

Even when he had just spoken with the Qin Emperor, no one had ever treated him with such disrespect.

"Once the two sides clash, casualties are inevitable. Even if Shen Zhen is exceptionally skilled, it's unlikely he can guarantee that not a single soldier will be lost!"

Here's the English translation, keeping only the text content within the tags:>

Let me know if you have any other translations for me!

Kurlzan's tone was also not very kind.

On hearing this.

Shen Changqing smiled, but his smile was extremely cold.

“This official can plainly tell you, even if the demons and goblins don't exterminate your barbarian tribe, the officials of Japan will also flatten your barbarian tribe. You mere barbarians dare to speak arrogantly in the capital of my great Qin state!”

"The words 'peace' and 'harmony,' do you barbarians even deserve them"

“You—”

Kurzan's face flushed with anger.

Of course, if your barbarian tribe sincerely wants to pledge allegiance to my great Qin, then it is not impossible.

As long as the current barbarian king and all the people in the Temple of Sacrifice, as well as those barbarians who have entered the Great Wilderness Mansion and stained the blood of my Qin people, commit suicide and apologize, and the barbarians pledge allegiance to my Qin dynasty for generations.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Then this official will turn a blind eye and give you a chance.

In an instant.

Kurlzan's face turned white with rage.

Other barbarians also glared with anger. If they weren't concerned about the situation and the other party's strength, they would have already made a move.

The Man Emperor and the people of the Temple of Sacrifice committed suicide.

And all those who entered the Great Wilderness Mansion and stained their hands with the blood of the Qin human race shall commit suicide.

>

If the barbarians were really going to do that, they wouldn't just lose all face; the number of casualties would be immeasurable.

And.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

The barbarians will never have another chance to rise.

For generations, we have served the Qin Dynasty. Now, are we truly going to let them control us

Kulzan felt.

If he really brings this message back, the first person to be beheaded will be him.

That's it.

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The barbarian general's chest heaved violently.

"Shen Changqing, our clan has come with sincerity, yet you repeatedly insult us. This is the demeanor of the Qin state Truly an eye-opener!"

"One needs to be polite when speaking to people, but animals are exempt."

“You—”

Kourzan's face twitched, he glared fiercely at Shen Changqing, then his expression turned sullen towards Gu Xing.

"Your Majesty, our tribe has come here not only for the future of our people, but also for the consideration of Qin. Regardless of past grievances, the fact is that if our tribe is destroyed, demonic creatures will invade Qin."

Therefore, I hope that the First Emperor will not only consider my clan but also the well-being of all other people in Qin.

If something really goes wrong, it won't be easy to fix.

>

Kulzan understood.

The one who truly calls the shots is still Qin Shi Huang.

As long as the other party nods in agreement, then all of the problems cease to be problems.

He turned a deaf ear to the ancient teachings.

He seemed completely indifferent.

>

At this time.

Shen Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, his face cold and stern: "With this official here, how could there be demons invading You'd better go ask Wang Mubai, give him a few lives, and see if he dares to set foot in the Qin territory!"

Though the voice was soft, it was filled with arrogance.

Great demon!

What is that!

He believed that the previous few battles had already frightened the opponent. Even if they were truly given an opportunity, Wang Mubai wouldn't dare enter Da Qin to seek death.

When the civil and military officials heard this, their hearts were greatly moved.

For over three hundred years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, there has not been such a domineering response.

Previously.

The Qin state was waning in power, and even though he had some ideas in his heart, he couldn't bring himself to voice them.

Now, when Shen Changqing speaks in the court, it gives these people a strange sense of pride.

Yes!

Do demons dare to come

The demon saint was slain at Meteor Saint Pass, so the other demons wouldn't dare to set foot in Qin again.

Kurzan's heart pounded.

Just then.

A murderous glint appeared in Shen Changqing's eyes: "It is you barbarians who dare to set foot in the territory of my Great Qin, you are courting death."

>

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

"Shen Zhen Shou—"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

A surge of fear, uncontrollable, rose in Kurzan's heart.

As he was about to speak, he saw the other party extend a hand, and with a terrifying force, it directly grabbed him.

Upon seeing this.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Kurzan was about to resist.

The next moment.

An irresistible force erupted, instantly submerging his consciousness.

Boom—

His body shattered, exploding into a cloud of blood mist that scattered across the hall.

Another finger strike, and another barbarian was sent flying.

Then.

Shen Changqing looked at the last one, a barbarian who was trembling with fear, his voice indifferent.

>

Tell the chieftain that he should clean his neck and wait, for I shall go and take his head one day. And let any other barbarian who dares to set foot in the Qin territory know this: they will die!
