From the Valkyrie to the Endless

Zhenbei Camp...

Shen Qing slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, reversed the sundial again, replenished the true energy that had been depleted in his body, and quickly rushed towards the camp.

Arriving outside the camp, the strong energy and blood in the camp rose and fell, and Shen Qing's nerves couldn't help but become excited. She didn't know whether it was because of the influence of murderous aura or the boiling desire in her heart.

Judging from the energy obtained previously, a grandmaster is equivalent to the combined energy of dozens of innate masters, which is equivalent to a huge treasure. The energy of the grandmaster above it is naturally even richer.

Tonight, she will definitely reap a lot.

The environment inside the camp is complex and covers an area of ​​nearly ten miles. The location of the central army tent is not easy to find. Shen Qing can only try his best to restrain his own energy and blood and explore forward bit by bit.

…………

…………

The Chinese military tent.

More than ten lamps were lit scattered around, making the tent as bright as day.

After the general's case, Yang Zongxi, wearing a dark purple cloak and with his eyes lowered, was still dealing with the complicated military affairs.

All the actions of hundreds of thousands of troops were issued from this tent. Even though he had many deputy generals to help him share the burden, there were still a lot of files to deal with.

Ding--

A crisp bell rang out, and an inconspicuous orange bell placed on the corner of the desk began to tremble slightly.

Suddenly, Yang Zongxi's eyes fixed, but he did not move, and continued to handle military affairs with his head down.

After more than ten breaths, a strong wind suddenly blew into the tent, blowing out all the oil lamps, and in an instant, it was pitch dark.

clang--

A resonant sound like a huge bell rang out, and a layer of orange-yellow light shield emerged, blocking the half of the gun blade that suddenly shot out, causing ripples to appear, and mysterious Sanskrit words flowed on them.

Seeing this scene, Shen Qing in the distance narrowed his eyes, and without any hesitation, he stretched out his true energy, wrapped it around the gun blade, and rushed out of the camp.

Yang Zongxi did not even raise his eyelids, sitting quietly behind the desk, as still as a mountain, with no panic in his expression, and said in a deep voice: "Catch him!"

Bang!

Four figures emerged from somewhere, with terrifying blood and energy fluctuations igniting. They were four great masters, chasing after Shen Qing.

Even though he had expected that Yang Zongxi would be surrounded by many experts, Shen Qing was still slightly surprised when he saw these four people.

There were no more than ten Grand Masters on the Heavenly Ranking, and now there were four of them standing in front of her, which was equivalent to nearly half of the top masters in the world. This was too outrageous.

Among the four, a middle-aged man in a green shirt was the fastest. He was obviously very good at body movement. In a short time, he was less than ten feet away from Shen Qing.

This distance is within reach for a martial arts grandmaster.

woo-

A sharp whistle exploded in the void, and a silver chain was thrown out from the hand of the man in green. At the end of the chain was a pale golden dagger less than a foot long. The sword tip vibrated with a buzzing sound, emitting sharp sword light.

Shen Qing suddenly turned around without any intention of dodging, allowing the dagger to pierce his waist and abdomen. His true energy surged, and his strength that could lift mountains and collapse rocks surged out in an instant. He grabbed the silver chain and pulled it in front of him.

The man in green obviously did not expect Shen Qing to do this. He did not react at all. The true energy in his body dissipated slightly, and he stumbled before being dragged in front of Shen Qing.

The pitch-black mask was so close that the man in blue felt a sudden chill in his heart.

Shen Qing didn't give him any time to react. He rushed forward without any tricks. His five fingers flew out and pressed down on the man's shoulder, using the simplest grappling technique in his hands.

click-

His palms and fingers were like the claws of a wild beast, deeply embedded in the green-clothed man's shoulder blades, causing his body to freeze and unable to move. The next moment, Shen Qing raised his leg and hit his knee with lightning speed, crashing into his chest.

puff--

Invisible air waves rolled in all directions, and the man in green rolled backwards instantly. He pulled out the short sword from Shen Qing's waist with his hand. The sword swept across, bringing out several pieces of broken intestines.

When he landed on the ground, the man's chest collapsed visibly and he couldn't stop coughing up blood. His heart was broken and he died after a few breaths.

Until this moment, the other three grand masters finally arrived, looked at the several pieces of broken intestines on the ground, and did not pursue them anymore.

Cutting open the intestines and abdomen is a serious injury that cannot be healed. Even for a martial arts master, he would not survive for a few days. This kind of brutal fighting style of exchanging life for life is frightening.

…………

…………

Inside the big tent, the lights were lit again.

The three grand masters returned and brought back the news.

"Did you see where it came from?"

Seeing that the three grand masters all shook their heads, Yang Zongxi frowned.

Four grand masters took action but failed to capture him. Instead, one of them was killed by him. This kind of skill is enough to rank in the top five on the Heavenly Ranking. There is no way he can be an unknown person.

"Your Majesty, could this person be Yang Zongxian..."

"It can't be him. If he wanted to kill me, he would have done it himself. If he handed it over to someone else, he would be worried. Maybe it was someone from overseas."

After a moment of contemplation, Yang Zongxi shook his head. He knew Yang Zongxian too well. If he had not been just an innate martial artist and posed no threat to Yang Zongxian, he might not have been able to leave the imperial capital at all.

Yang Zongxian is unruly by nature and seems to be arrogant, but in fact he is extremely cautious, and his desire for control is abnormal to the extreme. What he hates most is when things get out of control, and what he likes to do most is to nip in the bud any possible danger.

It was because of this that when the news of Shen Qing's death came, Yang Zongxi immediately suspected Yang Zongxian.

After pondering for a long time, Yang Zongxi still couldn't figure out where this person came from, so he spoke helplessly:

"Send a message to the Tonghai Merchant Alliance to collect as much information as possible from overseas to see if there are any experts entering Daxia during this period of time."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 50: Northern Territory (Please read on!!!!)

In the jungle, a figure like a tiger or leopard passed by and rushed towards the border quickly.

The serious injuries that were enough to be fatal have now recovered. The armor on the waist and abdomen was stained with blood and had a narrow cut, revealing a hint of white skin, which was a little dazzling in the moonlight.

At this moment, Shen Qing's heart was filled with uncontrollable excitement. The gains from this trip to Zhenbei Camp were really huge.

First, Yang Zongxi's background was found out. The clear yellow light shield must be the so-called relic of the previous dynasty, or something left by ancient monks.

Judging from her previous full-strength attack, the third-level Condensation Essence posed almost no threat to Yang Zongxi. With the protection of several grand masters, it would not be easy for her to die early. She could deal with Yang Zongxian and occupy most of his energy.

Perhaps because her life essence was more abundant, the energy given to her by the martial arts grandmaster was far beyond her expectations and much richer than that of a first-class grandmaster.

Just a rough estimate shows that the energy provided by the great master is enough for the sundial to operate for at least thirty years.

Even though the practice of the Star Source Secret Book is difficult in this era of depleted spiritual energy, after more than thirty years, one will be able to gain some proficiency.

After a quick fight with the man just now, Shen Qing also had a rough estimate of his own fighting ability.

Ordinary martial arts grandmasters are no match for her, but if it weren't for this life-for-life fighting style, it would be difficult to defeat her in a short time.

After all, the amount of essence and blood was not much, and the power that could be borrowed was also limited. When she was in the deserted island, she swallowed all the essence and blood of the woman and reached a state of full awakening.

What that woman inherited was only the bloodline of a seventh-level true god. Lord Demon Slayer was already the most powerful person at the pinnacle of humanity. If her bloodline was fully awakened, it would be normal for her to possess the combat power of the fourth realm.

Shen Qing is already satisfied with this, as the Grand Master's combat power is already at the peak of the world.

…………

…………

With the help of the grandmaster's speed, Shen Qing returned to the camp in less than half an hour. On the way, she picked up the heads of several grandmasters and replenished the energy of the sundial.

The Grand Master can indeed be called a god-like figure on earth. Taking a head in the midst of thousands of troops is as easy as taking something from a bag. It requires no effort at all.

As soon as he arrived at the camp gate, Shen Qing saw Zhao Yu wandering near the camp gate. Hao Yun followed closely beside her with a frown on his face.

Hao Yun's nostrils flared, and he was the first to notice Shen Qing coming back. His tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and he felt relieved for a moment.

Seeing Shen Qing coming back, Zhao Yu trotted over to meet her, walked around her twice, and only breathed a sigh of relief after finding nothing unusual.

Since only the three thousand light cavalry came back in the afternoon, she had been a little absent-minded until this moment when she finally calmed down.

There was a gaze in the corner looking at the camp gate. Shen Qing followed the sensation and looked in that direction, only to see a tall and thin figure.

We returned to the big tent, where food and water were already prepared.

Hao Yun did not stay long and left soon.

He has been trying to start practicing martial arts again, but with his current strength, he is of no help to Shen Qing.

Zhao Yu squatted beside Shen Qing, was silent for a while, and whispered: "When we get to the Northern Territory, will we no longer have to run? No longer have to fight?"

Her identity changed too quickly, leaving her feeling a little at a loss. Facing those battle-hardened warriors, she could only imitate Shen Qing, keeping a tense face and trying her best to learn the tactics and marching formations that she had never been exposed to before.

She has been learning the military tactics that Shen Qing gave her, but the cruelty of war is far beyond what the few words on paper can describe.

If one order was issued, many people would die. This burden was so heavy that she felt like she was suffocating.

She had been holding on because she didn't want to disappoint Shen Qing. Since the death of Lao Zhao, Shen Qing was the only person who made her feel she had someone to rely on.

Although Shen Qing's thinking logic is sometimes different from that of ordinary people, she knows very well that many of the things Shen Qing does are for her own good.

"After entering the Northern Territory, we will rest for a while. The battle...will come sooner or later."

Shen Qing looked at the hesitant expression on Zhao Yu's face and reached out to pinch her cheek:

"If you don't want to continue, it's not too late to turn back now."

After saying that, Shen Qing smiled faintly and added: "This is not a wish."

The change in her mood also changed her way of thinking. If Zhao Yu didn't want to, she wouldn't force him. After all, Zhao Yu was just a child under twelve years old.

What she wants is not this world. There are many ways to kill Yang Zongxian, not just rebellion.

However, after killing the emperor, the world would surely be in chaos, and the princes would rise up everywhere. Killing Yang Zongxian and causing chaos in the world was not what she wanted.

She only has ten years left in this world. Apart from Zhao Yu, it will be difficult for her to find a suitable person to carry this banner in a short period of time.

"I am fine."

Zhao Yu responded sullenly. In her opinion, Shen Qing wanted to avenge the genocide of his clan, and there would be no doubt that there would be a war with Da Xia. She didn't want to leave Shen Qing's side, so she could only choose to adapt to her current situation.

After a long silence, she said hesitantly, "Can I sleep with you in the future?"

These days, she slept alone in the main tent of the central army, and she would always wake up in the middle of the night, tossing and turning.
