Chapter 21: Domain

us few days, he got a bowl of "poor man's gruel" at the back alley of his inn and walked south along the clean street.He changed to a more ordinary-looking dragon mask, covering only the upper half of...Under the cover of anonymity, they went safely without any danger.

Between each city, the inspection is very strict.

From Chiyang County to Rizhao County, traveling in a straight line, one would pass through ten counties along the way.

Jiang Wang spent the entire journey in cultivation. With Di Jiang Wumen Qin Guangwang, who could bring danger at any moment, by his side, it wasn't dull—he was too busy being on edge to feel bored.

Upon entering Rizhao County, Jiang Wang immediately dismissed her husband and presented him with their entire carriage.

The coachman, after a long journey and for a good reward, got a free carriage on his way back. He was absolutely overjoyed! Bowing repeatedly to Jiang Wang, he expressed his gratitude.

Looking at the carriage slowly disappearing into the distance, Yin Guan, who had taken off his disguise, said: "Look, people are actually very easily satisfied. And this world is vast and abundant, with enough food to feed everyone. But why are there so many people who are unhappy"

Jiang Wang casually replied, "I've heard that people are the hardest to satisfy. The more they have, the more they want."

The easiest to satisfy is man, and the hardest to satisfy is also man.

Yin Guan skipped over the topic directly: "We've arrived in Rizhao. What are your plans"

“It’s definitely difficult to leave the country now.” Jiang Wang shook his head directly: “I’ll go back to Qingyang Town first. Taking a carriage all the way, arriving at Rizhao County but not returning to Qingyang Town, instead rushing to leave the country in a hurry, will definitely arouse suspicion.”

When he was in Beiyuan, he already felt that Lin Youxie seemed to suspect him. Now that he was truly involved in Yin Guan's affair, he needed to be even more careful.

“You’ve thought this through carefully.” Yin Guan nodded slightly, agreeing with Jiang Wang's arrangements.

The North Yard had many ways to track them down.

One such approach relies on "national power." It's also the simplest and most effective way to deal with these "outsiders."

This approach sounds mystical, but its essence is quite simple. Whether they are cultivators or commoners in the State of Qi, even down to every blade of grass and tree, they are all part of the State of Qi.

As for "national strength" which manifests in all aspects and industries, being ubiquitous, the killers who have no gate to hell are undoubtedly outsiders.

After the martial law was imposed on the border, the Guardians' Great Formation had not yet been fully activated, but some of its power had already been borrowed. Any action they took would leave traces of being "excluded".

So the escape from hell without a gate also relied on their "secret lines" hidden in Qi State beforehand as cover. Otherwise, they would have been discovered long ago.

Hell's Gate doesn't have a very long history, although a lot of preparation was made for the assassination of Zhao Xuan. However, there couldn't be too many informants hidden in Qi.

This is also the reason why Yin Guan had to kill Tai Shan Wang at all costs before.

And Jiāng Wàng, who held the rank of a noble in Qi State, was a legitimate member of this nation and also a part of Qi State's ruling class.

The enigmatic concept of "national fortune" only accepts and does not reject. Yin Guan, who accompanied Jiang Wang, therefore gained protection.

Both of them were very clear about this.

Yin Guan still wore his disguise and followed Jiang Wang towards Qingyang Town.

Jiang Wang couldn't see his tracks, and Yin Guan was very good at concealing his own aura. But he could clearly feel the person right beside him,

"By the way, you said before that Invisibility Cloak is useless against powerful divine beings" Jiang Wang asked.

“Its material and weaving are perfect, able to deceive the eyes and blend seamlessly with the environment. But within the sensory range of a powerful deity, its meaning is virtually nil.”

Yin Guan said: "Because the divine presence, is within the range of spiritual consciousness!"

According to Yin Guan, in front of powerful beings like those who have attained the divine realm, Invisibility's ability to blend with the environment is useless. Because "the environment" is controlled by the divine.

Perhaps you are not far from experiencing God's presence...

Jiang Wang meant every word. He had seen Yin Guan's prowess on several occasions and was deeply impressed by his strength. He was far beyond the average external disciple.

Yin Guan shook his head: "I realized my potential too early. If I followed the usual path, it would be difficult to see a god descend."

Although he was shaking his head, although what he said was a harsh reality, there was no dejection on his face, not even a trace of remorse.

He remained steadfast in his choice and made it all the way to where he is today.

And God is hard to see, are difficult things still few for him

After arriving at Qingyang Town, I'll find a way to assemble a caravan and open up trade routes to Zheng Kingdom or Rong Kingdom. You can join the caravan then. With your disguise, you have a high chance of blending in. It's unlikely that every border town would have a Divine Presence guarding it, and that divine expert wouldn't necessarily investigate me personally.

Jiang Wang walked and said, "Plans that are too complicated are actually not feasible. I have a disguise, so I'll leverage its advantages. This is the preliminary idea."

Yin Guan neither approved nor disapproved of the plan, simply stating: "There's no need to rush. Most of the Yama Kings are currently in Bi Wu County, and Yue Leng has also been lured there. The border will be relatively relaxed."

This is a test.

Jiang Wang hesitated for a moment before continuing forward.

He had already witnessed Yin Guan ruthlessly slaughtering King Taishan, so he should have been psychologically prepared for this kind of behavior where one uses other rulers of hell to create an escape opportunity for themselves.

So he didn't say anything.

But even subtle changes in emotion were noticed by Yin Guan.

His voice questioned, "You seem to disapprove of this action"

"This is your own choice, they are also your subordinates, and I have never met them. I have no right, nor do I wish to comment." Jiang Wang said.

Then I still can't stomach it.

"Are you the kind of person who cares about what others think"

Yin Guan smiled twice and said nothing more.

As soon as Jiang Wang stepped into Qingyang Town, he felt a sense of relief.

This is not merely a psychological feeling, but a concrete and real perception of reality. This is his domain, protected by the laws of the State of Qi and recognized by all parties.

Theoretically, he is here, possessing supreme power and freedom aside from the Emperor.

Of course, when an edict from the county government arrived, he had to obey. But that was essentially the imperial authority of Emperor Qi being exerted.

Every plant and tree here acknowledges his rule.

Because of this land grant's "recognition," Jiang Wang could exert more strength in Qingyang Town than elsewhere. However, for his current level of ability, this slight "enhancement" was negligible.

When leaving Qingyang Town, wildflowers were still blooming by the roadside. When I returned, it was already winter, and frost had killed all vegetation.

The townspeople encountered along the way all looked to be in good spirits, which gave Jiang Wang a general idea of how Dugu Xia's work was going.

Jiang Wang deliberately wandered around the town for a while, gaining some understanding in his heart before heading towards the town.

According to the arrangement when he left Qingyang Town, Dugu Xiao was responsible for daily town affairs, and Xiang Qian served as a deterrent with extraordinary combat power.

Zhang Hai's words were left behind as commonplace extraordinary martial arts. If he was leaving, then he had left. This person wasn't included in Jiang Wang's core team.

In his own territory, Jiang Wang rarely looked so relaxed. As he walked into the town hall, a scruffy, middle-aged man was lounging on a sun chair in the courtyard.

Who is it going forward and backward

Time seemed to stand still for him alone, everything appeared as though it had never changed.

Jiang Wang deliberately looked up at the sky. It seemed like there wasn't much sun left anyway. This guy was probably just too lazy to change places.

Jiang Wang was just about to find a way to prank him.

But then the person on the lounge chair suddenly got up.

His eyes sharpened, scanning his surroundings as if searching for something.

“My flying sword told me it sensed danger.”

This is the first thing Jiang Wang said to Qian Yang after returning to Qingyang Town.ot necessarily so!” Ji Xukong’s voice echoed repeatedly: “Some fallacies and heresies, woven and wove, believed by many, actually become true and get the title of ‘orthodox.’ Isn’t this common”Lu Xi-...
