Chapter Twenty-Three: Grand Central View, Thirteen Upper Hal

the fire line. The rest, within the shortest time, kill the wandering souls within the fire line!"Wu Xing Dao Shu is the most basic form of Dao Shu, and there are quite a few cultivators who are skill...Random Recommendation:

Jiang Wang walked out of the Waiyi Guan alone. At this time, the sky was just breaking dawn, and there were a few scattered pedestrians on the street.

He is out of people's sight.

He is now the King of Bian.

Wearing a cloak and a black robe, he travels through a foreign land.

As for Lin Zhengren's reaction, Zhong Xuansheng had long expected it. It was precisely because Zhong Xuansheng advised him - "You might as well give Lin Zhengren a chance to speak and see what he can do."

That's why he didn't leave the scene of the crime right away.

Zhonghuan Sheng once said that the thoughts of intelligent people are actually easier to judge because the best choices are never numerous.

As it turned out, killing Lin Zhengren was not a simple matter.

In other words, this time Zhuang Gaoxian sent Lin Zhengren out as a sacrifice. And he finds it extremely difficult to avoid the price he would have to pay for killing Lin Zhengren now.

It was probably the death of Lin Zhengren, the envoy from Zhuang State, that marked the beginning of Zhuang Gao's ambitious move.

The simplest thing—as long as Zhuang Gaoxian could prove that the death of Lin Zhengren, envoy of the Zhuang Kingdom, was related to Jiang Wang. Then the body protection golden armor of the human hero would no longer stand.

Zhuang Gaoxian could completely kill him openly and aboveboard.

This is a simple paragraph.

Therefore, it extends... what if Lin Zhengren went to Xiangguo Even if Jiang Wang remained unmoved and secluded himself, wouldn't Zhuang Gaoen also manufacture a false appearance of Lin Zhengren dying at the hands of Jiang Wang

Given Jiang Wang's understanding of Zhuang Gaoxian, this is highly possible! Or at least, it could be one of Zhuang Gaoxian's strategies.

And at that time, who would the representatives of the Daozong Nation be Would it be the Jingtian Six Friends or Fu Dongxu from the Mirror World Stage

When you think about it carefully, if you add the fire-month who raised the turtle, then many people in Jingguo would be offended...

Perhaps it was precisely because he foresaw his own tragic end that Lin Zhengren was so eager to cooperate. Perhaps some people were willing to go to great lengths for Zhuang Gaoxian, but Lin Zhengren was definitely not one of them.

But how could Lin Zhengren be innocent

Wang of Bian City could fully imagine that the methods Lin Zhengren mentioned for luring him out of Xingyueyuan were not necessarily all Zhuang Gaoxian's ideas, and it was possible that they had Lin Zhengren's "creativity" as well.

Lin Zhengren would behave in such a manner before him, and he would do the same in front of Zhuang Gaoxian and Du Ruhui—at least he would put on an appearance of complete sincerity.

But Lin Zhengren is right, he's still very useful.

Jiang Wang was absolutely confident he could kill Zhuang Gaoxian, but he never underestimated this opponent.

>

All those who underestimated Zhuang Gaoen were eventually taught a painful lesson. Han Yin's death is still fresh in our memory.

If Lin Zhengren's move could give rise to so many possibilities, what did Song Qingyao seek by going to the Changhe Dragon Palace

King Bian of Cheng retracted his gaze, lost in thought as he walked through the increasingly crowded throng.

In not much time, they arrived at the market in the north of Weicheng City.

A caravan from the State of Jing, here to purchase wool from the prosperous State of Tianfu, is taking a break. They will be returning to their homeland this morning.

After waiting at the appointed place for a while, the coroner Wang appeared with light steps and glanced around curiously. He seemed very leisurely and inquisitive, chewing on something with crunching sounds in his mouth.

Upon seeing King Bian, he immediately quickened his pace and reached him in three steps.

Here is the translation of your provided text:

The crunching of bones under teeth, a sound that only served to worsen one's mood.

King Biancheng looked at him coldly: "I said I don't like it when you kill people without taking money, didn't I"

The coroner Wang was taken aback and hurriedly said, “I haven’t.”

"Then what are you eating" King Biancheng said, his hand already resting on the hilt of his sword.

> The Thin Fortunate Sword, forged by Yishengfeng, is also a renowned sword in the world. Even though it is usually sheathed and rarely shown to others, there are still some who can recognize it. At least the cultivators of Nandou Hall are familiar with it. Many people know who killed Yishengfeng, so it is not difficult to deduce Bi Cheng Wang's identity from the Thin Fortunate Sword.

Therefore, he specially asked Lian Que to make a new scabbard for it. With the sword hanging at his waist, its appearance was already different from before. As for what it looked like when drawn... he wouldn't let anyone see Bo Xing Lang unsheathed.

“Chicken bones!” the coroner Wang said indignantly.

He then took out a bulging paper bag and showed it to King Bian Cheng. It was indeed full of chicken bones.

The only overly gruesome part is...it's all bone, and the blood is extremely fresh.

“Ah!” He also threw back his cloak and opened his mouth for the King of Bian to see, his mouth full of chewed-up, bloody bone fragments.

The King of Bian was very dissatisfied: "These aren't even your own body, why do you need to eat"

The coroner, Wang Dai, put his cloak back on and muttered, "You never said that you couldn't eat anything when borrowing a body..."

King Bian of the state of Cheng was even angrier: "Didn't I say I dislike being kept waiting"

The coroner, Wang, weakly defended himself: “I arrived half an hour early. Look, the other carriages haven't even arrived yet...”

"Swallow your words before speaking to me again! You're so rude!" The King of Bian City glared with icy eyes, his demeanor as cold as frost.

The coroner, Wang, shrank his head and silently swallowed the bone fragments, not daring to speak another word.

Su Xiuheng arranged everything properly, and the two Yama kings joined the convoy without any trouble.

Called as a guard, he sat meditating in the carriage all the way.

To be precise, King Biancheng was meditating, while Officer Wang observed his expression. They traveled in silence the whole way.

Speaking of his impressions of the Litiantianfu, Jiang Wang only remembered killing someone named Fu Cheng during the Starmoon Original battlefield—only after the war did he learn that the man was a gifted son from Litiantianfu.

Good, Jingguo's enemy list has grown by one.

Jiang Wang was well-versed in *The Records of History* and wasn't unfamiliar with the chapter *Jinglüe*.

Whether it's the Litian Mansion or the Hell no Gate, this time our target, Fengtian Mansion, all belong to Jing Guo's "Thirteen Upper Mansions". They are powerful and require extra caution.

The Jing State implemented a prefecture and county system, with a total of forty-nine prefectures. With its powerful military strength and abundant resources, it was undoubtedly the most powerful state in the world.

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

From the founding of the nation to this day, these forty-nine prefectures remain unchanged, hanging like the sun and moon.

Throughout all of recorded history, the expansion of the Central Grand Emperor Empire has always been an expansion of influence. Its decline has also been a decline of influence.

Their homeland did not expand, but their influence spread throughout the world. The saying "dominate the world with your sword and subdue all who oppose you" is no mere empty boast.

Throughout history, struggles and changes have been everywhere. Some nations, like Xia, were broken. Others, like Sheng, lost their sharpness. Still others, like the Northwestern Five Nations Alliance, rusted away...

These forty-nine states, within themselves are also divided. They are divided into thirteen Upper States, twelve Dao States, twelve Yuan States, and twelve Spirit States.

Back then, Emperor Taizu Ji Yusu, relying on the power of the three major Daoist lineages, founded the country, ending the era of "a hundred schools contending and clans sharing the world," ushering in an age of flourishing national institutions. This is only briefly recorded in .

At that time, the division of power within the Jing Dynasty's government can be glimpsed from the divisions of the various prefectures.

It is obvious that the Thirteen Upper Prefectures were ruled by the Ji surname royal family of Jing Guo, while the Twelve Dao Prefectures were controlled by Mount Daluoshan, the Twelve Yuan Prefectures belonged to Yu Jingshan, and the Twelve Ling Prefectures were under the jurisdiction of Penglai Island.

Of these forty-nine mansions, you are within me, and I am within you. We intertwine and connect, forming a powerful whole that is terrifying in its strength.

But the lack of centralized power was undoubtedly a fatal flaw for this vast empire. This problem remained unsolved during Emperor Jingtai's lifetime. Perhaps it was also the key factor that prevented Jing from truly unifying the world and limiting Emperor Jingtai's achievements as an earthly sovereign.

Emperor Taizu was born into the three lineages of Taoism, but he was also hindered by the three lineages of Taoism.

Not until Ji Fu Ren ascended that dragon throne.

What did Emperor Jingwen think of as "literature"

It was because he inherited Taizu's aspirations and silently resolved the issue of decentralized power in Jingguo, bringing all the provincial administrative powers back to the imperial court.

Only the Moral Palace, Yuanshi Palace, and Lingbao Palace were retained as three autonomous lineages, nominally known as "the path of discourse".

To this day, the influence of the Three Branches of Taoism can still be seen everywhere.

Just as Yuqing Mountain is to Zhuangguo, Penglai Island is to Shengguo.

But the way of heaven in all countries, no matter to which lineage it belongs, should ultimately be centered on harmony.

As for the leaders who subdue calamities, dispel demons, and quell disasters, they must originate from Dàluó Mountain. As for those who command the forces to slay evil spirits and suppress demonic affairs, they must originate from Yùjīng Mountain. And as for those who lead in overcoming difficulties and exterminating demons, they must originate from Pánglái Island.

But Jing Ba Jia's highest command authority was still under the control of the Grand Jing court.

This procurement team from Litianfu that buys wool isn't affiliated with any big merchant houses. They can cross borders and travel internationally thanks to the good security situation in Zhongyu.

Within the Middle Domain, roads stretch in all directions. This ensures that Jing Kingdom's army can reach any location within the Middle Domain in the shortest possible time.

On the Bright Path, no matter which country it passes through, that country must carefully maintain it. There are absolutely no beasts allowed to rampage on this path, nor bandits to run rampant. Destroying the Bright Path is a grave crime; once discovered, the Mirror Platform will pursue those responsible to the ends of the earth.

King Biancheng and the forensic officer Wang did not follow the procession all the way to Litian Mansion. Instead, they left the convoy halfway and walked toward Fengtian Mansion.

The You family is a renowned family in Fengtian, having produced many powerful individuals.

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

As nine hundred years ago on Mount Kunwu, where the battle with Huang Wei Zhen took place, and Yu Yu Heng, who was once the southern celestial master, engaged in a peak duel... uh, he was beaten to death, greatly enriching the resources of Mount Kunwu.

... just forty years ago, You Qinxu, who was called the "Number One True Person of Zhongzhou" after fighting with Jiang Mengxiong in the waters of misfortune, uh, had his Dao body shattered and his Dao destroyed. He returned to Zhongyu to barely survive for ten years before dying from old age.

For example, there's the peerless prodigy You Que, who won first place at the Yellow River Assembly and was hailed as "the number one expert in the world for a hundred years, surpassing even Jing Tian".

Of course, his current situation is well-known.

Even the strongest foundation can't withstand such depletion, so the You family has long since withdrawn from the ranks of the top aristocratic families in Jing Guo.

Now it's said that the tiger is dead and its frame stands. How many people really care, and who can treat it with seriousness, is hard to say.

You Que's sudden appearance can be said to be the culmination of a thousand years of hope for his family. His meteoric downfall also plunged the You family into the abyss.

Now the streets are buzzing with rumors that the You family is fated to never produce a powerful individual. Some even say that over nine hundred years ago, Huang Wei Zhen not only killed You Yu Heng but also shattered the You family's "fortune." In short, the stories are quite ominous.

It would not be difficult to kill a person like You Que, whose dao heart has shattered and whose cultivation has fallen from the divine realm. In theory, any Yama could do it.

The real difficulty lies in escaping Jing Guo unscathed after killing him.

The reason why ten Great Yama Kings were needed for this operation is that most of their missions were focused on achieving the latter. How to conceal all movements, how to block the transmission of news about Youque's assassination attempt, how to delay the operation of Jingse Platform, and how to delay the pursuit of powerful figures in Jing Guo...

The best outcome, of course, is to silently kill You Que. The You family waits for ten or half a month before discovering anything, by which time Dihe Wu Men has already escaped to the ends of the earth.

But that can only be a fantasy.

King Bian and Officer Wang were behaving like cultured gentlemen in a teahouse—in Taiping City, where the Yu family's ancestral home was located, this particular teahouse satisfied King Bian quite well.

Located just two blocks away from the Yu family's ancestral home, it's easily accessible without being too conspicuous.

Tea is not something that you drink.

King Biancheng didn't remove his face mask at all, and the coroner Wang also remained silent with his head bowed.

Even throughout their journey together, the two of them hadn't shared a meal or drink. They were deeply suspicious of each other and maintained a strict distance. Wang, the coroner, would even eat raw chicken bones as snacks, taking care to do so only when Bian Cheng Wang was away.

In the silence, suddenly came a "tut" sound.

Qin Guangwang, with his long hair cascading down his shoulders, swaggered in, pushing the door open. "One good news and one bad news," he said. "Which one do you want to hear first"

In contrast to the two extremely dedicated and discreet Yamas, he was leisurely and relaxed like a lazy vagabond.

"Tell me the good news." Bian Cheng Wang's voice was icy as he raised his chin towards the opposite person. "Tell him the bad news."

The coroner, Wang Mo, remained silent.

"Tsk." Qin Guangwang shook his head. "As soon as you opened your mouth, the feeling of a senior member of the organization came through."

The coroner Wang nodded vigorously, so hard that one worried his head might fall off.

“Well, first the bad news,” Qin Guangwang plopped down beside Bian Chengwang. “When Tai Shan Wang entered this realm, he caused a bit of a commotion. He accidentally killed a patrolling guard at Jing Tianfu. Although we've wiped clean any traces, Mirror Stage will definitely investigate this matter. The ranks escalate, and within three days at most, there will be a bounty hunter powerful enough to track us down. Additionally, Lou Junlan is currently in Tai Ping City. With her presence, she can quickly mobilize the national forces of Jing Guo. Once we are exposed, our escape time will be drastically shortened.”

King Biancheng raised his eyes slightly: “Bad news”

“It's all about increasing the difficulty of the tasks,” King Qin Guang said lightly, “I think we can combine them and count them as one.”

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

King Biancheng got up and was about to leave.

"Hey hey hey." King Qin Guang stretched out his hand to stop him. "What's the meaning of this"

"Those who like to seek death, form your own team yourselves." King Biancheng said coldly. "Don't drag me in."

“Ha, so heartless” King Qin Guang stopped him while looking at the coroner Wang: “We’re all part of the same organization, you listen to this. Is what he’s saying even human language”

The coroner Wang immediately stated: "This King of Mount Tai is too much of a nuisance! He's causing trouble at a crucial moment!"

He reached out from under his black robe with a pale hand, slowly clenching it into a powerful fist: "Boss, we should give him some punishment, to make an example of him."

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

It seems that Bian Cheng Wang has been well-trained. Qin Guang Wang thought calmly.

He asked nonchalantly, "What punishment do you want to give him"

The Coroner Wang spoke in a hoarse voice: "My subordinate requests to do this immediately, turning him into a corpse and pledging loyalty to you along with me. In the future, he will work just as hard when we act, and cause no trouble when we don't. And you will have one less share to divide."

Qin Guang Wang ignored him and turned to Bian Cheng Wang, saying, "It wouldn't hurt to hear some good news."

King Bian of the City coldly sat back down. He sat on the other side of the tea table.

At this moment, the three Yama kings sat on three sides.

Qin Guang Wang took the untouched tea from Bian Cheng Wang, dipped his finger in it, and swiftly drew a courtyard layout on the table.

"The good news is that You Que is practically a non-entity in the You family now. He's been on the fringes for years. He lives a solitary life, ignored by all. It's possible that even after we kill him, no one would know he was dead for a long time."the long blade backward, suddenly a blazing light shot up into the sky and rushed straight toward Deng Qi's front.Sword Qi like a rainbow!Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!T...
