Chapter 170 Chen Yi!! (Request for Subscription)_3
Chen Yi noted these and immediately turned into a streak of flowing light, his speed suddenly increased.
Seeing this, Wen Renying immediately manifested her demon fox form, barely keeping up with his left and right to guide the direction.
Meanwhile, at South-Garrison Pass.
Li Qingzhou flashed onto the city wall, looked towards the dense forest in the distance, and as his Sword Intent spread, he naturally sensed the "demoness" by Chen Yi's side.
After pondering for a moment, he revealed a wry smile.
This disciple indeed possesses exceptional talent in Sword Dao, yet his killing instinct is also one of the most intense among the Sword Cultivators.
"Your disciple's killing intent is strong, who is he planning to kill?"
Three Masters came to his side, looking with interest towards the direction of the dense forest.
"Bai Shen Sect or demons," Li Qingzhou shook his head and said, "Let him be, consider it a part of his trials."
"Aren't you worried?" Three Masters turned his head to look at him, smiling as he said:
"This is the land of the Southern Barbarians; if those barbarians discover his traces, they might chase him to the ends of the earth."
Li Qingzhou smiled, but didn't express worry; instead, he said, "With the grand event about to start, what do you plan for Kyoto Academy this time?"
Having confirmed that Chen Yi's swordsmanship had broken through to the Divine Power Realm, he was no longer worried about this disciple's safety.
At least on the Tianyuan Continent, this was not a concern.
Whether it's the Southern Barbarian Sect or the Demon Court, most beings above the Divine Power Realm were restricted by the "Heaven and Earth Bridge."
To kill Chen Yi, the price they would have to pay would far exceed the loss of a Divine Power Realm.
Furthermore, this disciple had matured in mind, purposely concealing his swordsmanship.
If the Demon Court and Southern Barbarian Sect blindly provoke him, they would only be lifting a rock to drop on their own feet!
Three Masters jokingly asked, "Brother Qing Zhou, are you trying to gather news?"
"In terms of slaughter, no one compares to your disciple, my academy's students are significantly lacking."
"How 'significant' is it?"
"No comment!"
...
One day later.
Many matters at the South-Garrison Pass had settled.
Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Wang Gongwang, Chief Eunuch Liu Gao, Marquis Baihua Pang Zongkang, along with the newly promoted High Priest Rosa and leader of the Southern Barbarian Sect Ling Nuo, after two days of discussions, signed the treaty for this war.
As the defeated party, the Southern Barbarian Sect had not only to compensate the Wei Dynasty for all losses, but also cede two thousand miles of dense forest south of South-Garrison Pass as compensation.
The Wei Dynasty would send people to build a mutual market outside the new national border, to facilitate trade with the Southern Barbarians.
Simultaneously, the Wei Dynasty was to place two ceremonial officials within various major tribes of the Southern Barbarians to teach the barbarians the Wei's scriptures;
Such as rites, sacrifices, Buddha scriptures, Confucian books, and so forth.
Initially, Ling Nuo adamantly disagreed, but under the persuasion of High Priest Rosa, the South Barbarian side agreed to the last two clauses of the treaty.
Thus, this war that started with grandeur ended quite abruptly.
Outside the General Mansion.
Hua Xianzi looked towards the city gate not far away, hesitated, and asked:
"Junior Master Li, are we really not waiting for Junior Brother Chen Yi?"
Xiao Xuanzhen also looked towards Li Qingzhou and said, "Yes, Uncle Master, there's still some time before the event starts, how about waiting a few more days?"
Li Qingzhou smiled and shook his head: "He has urgent matters to attend to. After he handles them, he will return to Sword Edge Mountain."
Originally, he planned to return tomorrow, but after learning that matters at South-Garrison Pass had concluded, he decided not to stay longer.
Returning a day earlier would give him more peace of mind and spare him time to teach swordsmanship to Hua Youxiang and others.
Especially since Ning Xue was about to head to Taizhou Mountain Battlefield, he also needed to explain some matters beforehand.
Xie Changle, seeing that Xiao Xuanzhen and Hua Xianzi were about to continue persuading, quickly signaled with a glance and said:
"Junior Brother Chen has astonishing cultivation; you two junior sisters don't need to worry too much."
"Who's worried?" Xiao Xuanzhen reluctantly said, "I'm just afraid that if he stays out too long, he will miss the grand event."
Hua Xianzi hesitated for a moment, then remained silent.
Although her heart indeed held some concern, more so was the sense of emptiness from Chen Yi's absence.
If possible, she was very willing to stay by Chen Yi's side, even just to see him from afar.
Li Qingzhou looked at the three, then bowed to Three Masters and others on the other side, waved his hands, and led Xiao Xuanzhen and others far away.
"Brother Yi didn't return with them?" Jiang Ye looked at the departing four and asked with suspicion.
Xie Dongan also had some doubts, but shook his head: "With his strength, there's nowhere in the world he can't go; no need to worry about it."
Wei Nantian nodded and joined in: "Right, by the time the grand event starts, we should see him in the Capital City."
"Ha ha... I'll definitely visit Duke Wu'an Mansion then," Xu Sannian said with a laugh.
Pang Longxiang teased him: "You dare to go? Aren't you afraid Uncle Chen will call you 'grandson'?"
Xu Sannian remembered the time in Xingwu Academy when he called Chen Yi father as a child, his face turning red and green.
"You bastard, still dare to bring that up? If it wasn't for your meddling back then, how could I have agreed to that?"
"Wasn't it your own eager offer?"
"Who said that?!"
Gongye Shou didn't pay attention to their bickering, thoughtfully saying: "I heard that Duke Wuan has already started his journey northward?"
Xie Dongan nodded: "The Demon Court's army hasn't withdrawn yet, so the Wuan Army is stationed in Beizhi to guard against any surprises."
"I hope there won't be any more warfare outside Beixiong Pass."
Gongye Shou sighed, not wanting to think about those issues anymore, and said to Three Masters and others:
"I won't say much, but on behalf of South-Garrison Pass, I want to thank you all again for lending a hand."
"The Princely Heir is too polite..."
...
As the last batch of ambitious young warriors left South-Garrison Pass, Chen Yi was still in the southwest dense forest.
At this moment, Wen Renying was still maintaining her demon form, her two-zhang-long tail swaying as she ran.
