Song Yiniang had come once afterward, writing to say that she had married into a family in Wangjiang City. As a city known for its thriving commerce, Wangjiang City was second only to Qinghe City, the capital of Qinghe County. Furthermore, her husband's family was surnamed Lin and considered a prominent clan in the region. Thus, she seemed to have found a good home.

It's no wonder she couldn't bring her daughter.

As for the remaining assets of the Jiang family in Fengxi Town, Jiang Wang did not bother to inquire further. Regardless of what one might say, Song's aunt had been married to his father and, after he fell ill, she had taken good care of him. It was only natural to give her some dowry.

However, the two parties probably said all they needed to say and there was no need to contact each other again.

Between the ages of four and five, it's the perfect time to start learning. Jiang Wang arranged for his younger sister to attend a private school. It was the best private school besides the academies run by the three major clans, and ordinary families couldn't afford it. Jiang Wang had been the most outstanding student outside the main gate of City Dao Academy for so long, he still had some face. Especially now that he had entered the inner gate, his Dao lineage was clearly visible, making him the future pillar of Zhuang Guo without a doubt. Ordinary people wouldn't easily offend him.

Every day, after attending scripture classes at the Daoist temple and finishing my cultivation, I would carefully time my trip to the private school to pick up An An. When accepting missions, I always tried to choose ones that could be completed within a day, going out and returning on the same day so as not to delay taking care of An An. If there were truly unavoidable missions that conflicted with this schedule, I would arrange for Ling He, Zhao Ru Cheng, and others to take turns looking after An An.

Time flowed in such a fulfilling manner. The foundational array of the Tongtian Palace became increasingly complex, gradually taking shape. However, as it progressed, the arrangement of the foundational array became more challenging. Especially before laying the foundation, moving the Dao Yuan was fraught with danger; any mistake could cause the Dao Yuan to dissipate, rendering all the efforts in cultivating the pulse meridian futile. Because he chose to use the Zhoutian Starry Array, his foundational process was slower than others. Therefore, with every movement of the array points during the laying of the foundation, Jiang Wang couldn't allow himself to fail.

Due to his undeveloped foundation, Jiang Wang was unable to cultivate Dao techniques. He could only put more effort into practicing the Ziqi Donglai Sword Technique. This sword technique has nine cultivation methods and five killing methods. As the name suggests, cultivation methods refer to the methods of cultivation, while killing methods refer to the methods of attack. Cultivation methods are used to temper the physique and comprehend the way of the sword, while killing methods are used to attack formations and break through enemies fiercely.

Fortunately, after mastering the training method of the Nine Styles, its effect on nourishing the physical body's qi and blood is astonishing. Jiang Wang could even clearly perceive that his physical body provided more feedback to the Dao Pulse True Spirit, accelerating the condensation of Dao Yuan.

Over time, he actually gained an additional opportunity to practice meridian surging, and could now condense three Dao Yuans every day. This undoubtedly significantly shortened the time required for a successful foundation establishment.

Life was fulfilling and satisfying. Within such a life, Jiang Wang welcomed the first large-scale mission since arriving at the Jindafen City Daoist Academy.

"Emergency mobilization order, all personnel are forbidden to leave!"

In the courtyard, after morning prayers had just ended, a general in a dark robe burst through the doors.

"Who is this person"

What are you doing

A group of disciples whispered to each other, but someone soon pointed out the truth, "Keep it down, that's Wei Yan!"

The entire monastery fell silent instantly.

Ranked second on the Dao Xun List, he is a powerful military leader of the City Guard. Whether by his official rank or his reputation, he can command respect from everyone. This officer in particular is known for his harsh and cold demeanor.

Weiyǎn seems to not care about everyone's attitude, or perhaps he only needs to show his own.

Since last week, there has been no news from Xiaolin Town for a full five days.

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

Jiang Wang and Ling He looked at each other. As a large town under the jurisdiction of Fenglin City, Xiaolin Town, while not reporting every little thing, still had to report every few days.

For five whole days, there was no news. It was almost as if Maple Forest City had lost control of it. A town with thousands of inhabitants suddenly cut off from the outside world – this was a serious matter.

Wei Yan continued, "I hold the City Lord's seal and can requisition at least thirty inner disciples from the city academy to go to Xiaolin Town to investigate this matter."

“Isn't this the duty of the Criminal Investigation Division” a disciple asked with dissatisfaction.

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

Such a large-scale mission, requisitioning thirty inner disciples from the City Dao Academy at once, would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous. Therefore, many people were unwilling to accept it.

"The Heart-Devouring Demon Bear has appeared in Sanshan City. Now the Criminal Justice Bureau has dispatched most of its forces in Qinghe County to Sanshan City."

Wei Yan did not respond. His deputy, Zhao Lang, explained on his behalf.

The administrative system of the Zhuang nation followed that of the Yong nation, with general cases handled by government offices and extraordinary cases taken over by the Jixing Department. The Jixing Department was responsible for all supernatural events across the country. In theory, it was subject to the control of local governments, but due to its special status as being directly subordinate to the capital city, local governments often found themselves unable to effectively command it.

Just like this time, gathering manpower to pursue Xiong Wen was the intention of the Criminal Investigation Department. Even Fenglin City Lord Wei Qiji couldn't interfere and bring them back.

"What about the city guards" the disciple asked again.

The City Guard is the lord's direct military force, tasked with suppressing all evil and rebellions. An entire town like Xiaolin Town going missing is a major event that would warrant a crackdown by the City Guard.

"The City Guard has other matters to attend to." Wei Yan impatiently cut off the speaker. "This mission's reward will be increased by 30%. It is based on voluntary participation, but if the number of Inner Sect disciples who sign up is less than thirty, I, by order of the City Lord, will forcefully conscript them!"

It is necessary to remind everyone that before this mission, two ninth-rank Youmai realm cultivators who went to investigate were lost in Xiaolin Town. I hope everyone will assess the risks and proceed with caution.

The Dao Institute system is the most important transcendent ascension system in the Zhuang Kingdom. It consists of local city Dao Institutes that recruit local cultivators, who practice for several years before passing an assessment to enter county Dao Institutes. Then, they progress from county Dao Institutes to national Dao Institutes, layer by layer through selection.

At last, all the talented individuals from the entire Zhuang kingdom were gathered in the capital city. If they succeeded, they would compete with heroes from other countries for dominance; if they failed, they would be sent to various regions to serve as governors.

Although the Fenglin City Daoist Academy only recruits ten inner disciples each year, due to the high difficulty of entering the county Daoist Academy, many cultivators spend several years, even decades, in the city Daoist Academy. Over the years, the Fenglin City Daoist Academy has accumulated about three hundred inner disciples, excluding those who have gone on distant journeys and those who are in seclusion.

From Wei Yan's perspective, he might even hope that the number of volunteers wouldn't be enough. Ideally, he would directly mobilize the thirty strongest cultivators from Fenglin City Academy using a coercive order, greatly increasing their chances of success. However, the academy and the city lord's mansion were not subordinate to each other; if they clashed, it would be messy and impractical.

“Boss, are you going” Jiang Wang asked Ling He in a low voice. He was actually a bit worried because this mission would inevitably involve extraordinary powers, and both Ling He and Du Yehu hadn’t been able to open their meridians yet. It could be extremely dangerous.

"Of course I'll go." Ling He didn't hesitate. He was already a step behind on the path of cultivation, and he couldn't miss this opportunity to increase his rewards by 30%. As for danger If he were afraid of danger, he should have been farming in the village in the first place.

“I’m signing up!” Du Yehu shouted, “All four of us are signing up!”

Zhao Ru Cheng hit him disgruntledly: "What's the matter I was going back to take a nap."

Of all the people, he was the one with the least ambition. He just spent his days eating and waiting to die. Life was nothing but relaxation to him.

Wei Yan glanced over lightly, seeing that the foundation had not yet been successfully laid, he didn't care much, only casually instructed his deputy: "Record it down."

This is a response.

The deputy officer announced in a loud voice, “Registration is limited to within one incense stick’s time, and there are still twenty-six spots remaining.”

"As cultivators, we are supported by the state and should contribute to our country. I have registered for this operation." Li Jianqiu arrived in a flash, stepping gracefully through the gate.

As for his disciples of this level, they already possess considerable freedom. They needn't report to the academy daily and could even refuse conscription of this caliber. Unless it was a national emergency, they would solely focus on ascending their cultivation levels. Whenever they appeared, it would invariably elicit gasps of astonishment.

"How can I allow Jian Qiu to be the only one who shines Let me, Wang Changxiang, take his place." Unlike Li Jianqiu, who walked with a sword, Wang Changxiang possessed a much calmer demeanor. He still wore the hemp-woven Daoist robes he had seen in Daoxun Hall before, moving slowly and calmly.

“With the addition of Brother Wang and Brother Li, this trip is even more promising!” A rare smile appeared on Wei Yan’s usually stern face.

Even he didn't find it easy to beat Wang Changxiang, who was ranked seventh on the Dao Xun list.

With the addition of Wang Changxiang and Li Jianqiu, everyone's enthusiasm for registration soared, and it quickly reached its capacity.

Thirty inner disciples, excluding the four Jiang Wang brothers, almost all had a cultivation base of the ninth rank. Each was extraordinary. Such an extraordinary force could almost sweep through the Fenglin City area.

Wei Yan casually took the list and glanced at it, nodding slightly. "You guys are still somewhat courageous. Reading hasn't wiped out your humanity."

Perhaps this was his approval, but the condescending tone was still quite unpleasant.

The Ministry of War and the Daoist Academy are two distinct promotion systems, with both cooperation and competition between them. It's common for them to not see eye to eye.

At that moment, a disciple expressed discontent, saying, "If Master Zhu were here, I wonder if some people would still dare to point fingers at him!"

Of course, he was talking about Zhu Weiyi, the number one expert on the Maple Forest City Daoist Ranking.

Wei Yan remained calm, simply raising his robe and walking out of the academy. "Let's go!"ictable!”> “What you wish for does not come to pass, Heaven will not grant your desires.”Chang Shengjun rarely felt this much emotion.Like the Nandou Hall has never been forced to this extent.Fu Zhao...
