“Of course there are. In fact, they were originally criminals who were brought to the court to do hard labor.
After that, when they were sold to my Shen family, they were exempted from their punishment and could be considered my Shen family’s servants.
Of course, they now belong to the Tang family. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“Okay, I’ll immediately send someone to take it over with your people.” Tang Wen nodded.
“That’s good too. We can just take the Eagle. If we take turns flying, we can get there in a few days.” Shen Gongyang nodded.
Then, Shen Gongyang and Chu Cong closed their doors to cultivate.
As soon as Tang Wen left, Chu Cong asked,”what do you think of Tang Wen, brother Shen?”

“I don’t have the qualifications to be recommended to the secret agent’s residence.” Shen Gongyang shook his head.
“With the help of the Holy Spirit Water, brother Shen should be able to step into the elemental gathering realm. At that time, you should be able to be promoted to a vice Hall Master, and you’ll be qualified to recommend him to the sect. ” Chu Cong said.
“How’s this person’s strength? I can’t tell. ” Shen Gongyang asked.
“He should have the strength of the higher heaven realm.” Chu Cong said.
“I’ve met the requirements. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“That’s right, I entered the house of secret agents when I was a rank -2.
Even though he’s just an ordinary spy, he’s still a spy of our dynasty.
If he had the power of a peak Xiantian expert, he should be able to become a squad leader after two years. ” Chu Cong said.
“Chu Cong, I want to apologize to you.” Shen Gongyang said.
“You’re saying that my promotion to team leader has failed?” Chu Cong was stunned.
“That’s true, because a team leader is in charge of three to four people, and they are all Supreme rank. Therefore, the captain has to be at least an innate master. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“Then how did I get into the secret agent Manor when I was only a rank two?” Chu Cong asked, puzzled.
“You still don’t understand?” Shen Gongyang said.
“Because of my old man?” Chu Cong was stunned. Instantly, he felt rather disappointed.
“Back then, your grandfather blocked an arrow for the retired emperor. So, the royal family has to give your grandfather some face.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to enter the sect. You should know that the population of the great Chu dynasty is close to two billion, and there are tens of millions of martial artists.
Linghai was only a small place, and the closer they got to the capital, the stronger they became.
In truth, there had been many battles recently, and the Imperial court also needed to increase its strength.
Therefore, it was said that another official document was issued internally, raising the threshold of the entry of secret agents to the innate realm.
From now on, a small team leader would need the strength of the elemental cultivation realm. An altar master was already half a step away from the element gathering tier, and a branch leader already had the power of the element gathering tier.
For example, the Vice head was at the half – Step intent proficiency realm.
“As for people like you who came in through the back door, we’ll basically put an end to them in the future. We won’t allow any of the royal family’s relatives to interfere.
This was because secret agents were the emperor’s true confidants, and every secret agent had to be experienced in hundreds of battles.
For example, if I could advance to element gathering tier now, I would immediately be promoted to a division Head in sea Saint City.
That’s because the official document hasn’t been officially issued yet, so I can take advantage of this loophole.
Once it’s issued, I won’t have a chance anymore. So, I’m going all out this time.
I believed that my family would support me, so I dared to sign the contract with Tang Wen immediately.
However, even though I’ve been promoted to vice Hall Master, I’m still a vice Hall Master.
However, the competition will only get more intense in the future. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“That’s true. If your subordinates are stronger than you, how will you interfere?” Chu Cong nodded.
“Therefore, the position of vice Hall Master is not easy to sit in.
So, we can’t relax in the slightest. We have to become stronger, and stronger.
Otherwise, they would be eliminated. In fact, it’s not just us. The six Fan School is also going to reform, and they have also raised their requirements.
Recently, for some reason, because of the war, not only the Imperial court, but all the major sects seemed to have been holding back and brought out their best things to cultivate experts.
For example, the ten ocean Saints sect. It was said that even their sects had someone in the great circle of the elemental gathering realm.
Even the top three of the ten ocean Saint sects have reached the intent proficiency realm. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“This means that the great sects, including the Imperial court, haven’t used their full strength.
In the past, he had hidden many good things that he had not used.
Now that there’s war, they’re forced to take out the good stuff. ” Chu Cong said.
“Of course. In fact, there are both truths and falsehoods in this matter. Not to mention the six Fan School, even we, the house of secret agents, are not very clear about it. After all, the world was too big. Take your High Duke as an example. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“So what if I’m an old man? Although he is a High Duke, he is at the bottom of the eight high Dukes. His skills are too weak, and he has placed all his hopes on me. ” Chu Cong said.
“My ass!” Shen Gongyang said.
“You …” Chu Cong asked, puzzled.
“Your old man is also an old fox. Who says he’s weak? he’s a powerful cultivator in the intent realm. Of course, it’s only half a step into the intent opening realm. I haven’t completely entered it. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“My … My father is half a step into the intent realm. How is that possible? Isn’t he an innate master?” Chu Cong’s face was full of shock, and he couldn’t even speak properly.
“Innate my ass! I’m just fooling you. The experts in our house of secret agents know a little about this, but not all of them.
Some of the eight high Dukes are already in the spirit focus realm, so of course your father is at the bottom of the ranks.
If he could break through to the intent proficiency stage, he would at least pass.
Otherwise, he would lose face among the Dukes. No wonder the Emperor looked down on him.
According to rumors, someone had suggested that the dukedom should be re – evaluated.
Those that should go down, those that should go up. However, this matter was too big, and the Emperor could not make a decision in a short time.
After all, there were too many implications. For example, the contribution of the ancestors, some power, financial resources, population, clansmen, and some relationships.
However, Chu Cong, you have to work hard. Otherwise, even if your father can hold on, when it’s your turn, you’ll probably be demoted.
At that time, he would be demoted to a Marquis. If your father is demoted, you’ll be finished. At most, you’ll be an Earl.
In our great Chu dynasty, there are quite a few counts.
However, there are fewer Marquises and even fewer Dukes, only eight. ” Shen Gongyang said.
“Understood.” Chu Cong sat down with a heavy heart and started to cultivate again.
“I didn’t expect Chu Guang to be so powerful.” Wen Jinyuan exclaimed as he looked at the surveillance camera.
“I didn’t expect the Linghai Warriors to be so weak compared to the capital.” Tang Wen nodded.
“The ridge sea is indeed too remote. The gap between it and sea Saint City is very obvious.” Wen Jin Yuan said.
“So, in the future, our business will expand to sea Saint City, to the capital, and we must train a group of strong people. Otherwise, it’ll be hard for the Tang family’s business to continue. ” Wen Jin Yuan said.
“Chu Cong intends to recommend you to the secret agent residence. What do you think, master?” Wen Jinyuan asked.
“As an officer, forget it. Once you enter the secret agent’s residence, you probably won’t be able to control yourself. ” Tang Wen shook his head.
“Although it’s a little troublesome, I have a lot of power.” Wen Jin Yuan said.
“Hehe, Shen Gongyang’s status in the secret agent residence is still too low. If you want me to enter the house of secret agents, you must give me freedom. ” Tang Wen said with a smile.
“It’s hard to get both the fish and the bear’s paw. ” Wen Jinyuan shook his head.
A few days later, Wang haiting sent someone to deliver the surveillance video of Linghai Academy.
The Guardian of the Academy,’Lin Zhi’, closed the door and quietly went out from the back door after cleaning up the dishes.
He climbed over the wall to enter the Linghai Academy and went down to the back mountain.
Soon, they stopped at the top of the mountain.
There was actually a sinkhole under his feet. The sinkhole wasn’t big, only about a mile in radius.
Lin Zhi’s body was as light as an ape. He climbed the tree branches and slid to the bottom of the sinkhole.
The sinkhole was about 300 meters above the ground and was surrounded by mountains. It looked like a huge well.
There were four small houses, two stories high, a wooden house, a bamboo house, a stone house, and an Iron House.
“Everyone, our Linghai Academy is facing an unprecedented calamity.” Lin Zhi cupped his fists towards a few houses and said.
Instantly, the doors of the four houses opened almost at the same time, and four old men walked out.
A thin old man wearing a wooden skin walked out of the wooden house. The old man in the bamboo house had a bamboo hairpin in his hair.
The old man in the stone house was wearing a stone scale coat made of extremely thin Jade.
The old man in the iron House was wearing an iron helmet and armor, only revealing his face.
“Did you eat too much mixed noodles?” The old man in the bamboo house snorted.
“Elder Zhu, elder mu, elder Shi, elder tie, I won’t come and disturb you unless I have no other choice.” Lin Zhi said.
“In the small Linghai province, other than the shifting wood Palace, there are no other powerful sects or factions.
Furthermore, the shifting wood Palace is still in contact with us, so they shouldn’t be our enemies.
Other than them, who else can bring us disaster?” Old tie snorted.
“The four of you haven’t come out of the pit for ten years, and Linghai has many talents. “Recently, there’s an extremely arrogant kid. His name is Tang Wen …” Lin Zhi said.
“A fallen noble who has only been stubborn for a year can force the Linghai Academy into such a state? Lin Zhi, I think you’re becoming more and more backward as a venerable guard?” Elder mu said coldly.
“Why don’t you just take care of him yourself? You actually came to trouble us. ” Elder Shi said with a long face.
“There are too many people watching him right now, so I can’t make a move.
Otherwise, the Linghai college would be implicated. Unless he died at the hands of the sun nation’s thieves, it would be best to kill him on the battlefield.
That way, no one else can say anything. ” Lin Zhi shook his head.
“You mean you want to use the battle on Qilin Island to kill him?” Elder tie asked.
“I’ve already sent someone to secretly inform the sun sect about this. The sun nation has suffered a great loss at Tang Wen’s hands and will definitely seek revenge.
Sun sect, in particular, had lost many experts. Tang Wen had long become a thorn in their side.
Once the sun nation attacks the Qilin Island, I’ll assassinate him. ” Lin knew.
“You can just solve this matter, why are you looking for us?
You don’t know this, but we’re currently cultivating the ‘four symbols divine technique’ together. Once we’ve mastered it, we’ll be able to fight even a telepathic thought realm cultivator if we work together.
At that time, we’ll be able to find that old man Tian Botong and get back what we lost to him back then. ” Said elder tie.
“I’m going to the sun nation soon to make a deal with the sun sect. ” Lin Zhi said.
“What deal?” Old tie snorted.
“Tang Wen is not easy to kill. According to our spies in six fan Hall, Tang Wen is protected by powerful men.” Lin knew.
“He’s just an 18 – year – old kid. What kind of expert can he hire to protect him?” Elder Zhu’s face was full of disdain.
“In this world, money can connect with the gods. It was reported that he was secretly protected by an elite in the element gathering tier.
In addition, they had the powerful fire Gu in their hands and a personal guard of 30 people. Each of the guards was at least rank two, and many of them were in the higher heaven realm.
With the addition of a martial artist in element gathering tier, it would be difficult for me to kill him by myself.
Therefore, he had to cooperate with sun sect and kill him in the battle of Qilin Island.
Of course, I have another concern. On the battlefield, if I go to assassinate Tang Wen without making a deal with sun sect in advance, I’ll also be regarded as an enemy and besieged.
