Chu Feng originally did not intend to say goodbye to the three wives, but now they were all present and already knew that Chu Feng was going on a long journey again.
Although they didn't speak, their expressions clearly showed reluctance and worry.
If he didn't properly say goodbye to them, with the stubborn personalities of these three won, they would certainly follow Chu Feng up to Shennong Mountain.
"Xiao Ying, Han Shuang, don't go anywhere during this period, just stay in Azure Dragon City and focus on your cultivation. Girls shouldn't be fighting and killing all day long. Leave those dangerous things to n."
Chu Feng looked at his two wives with deep affection.
They had always steadfastly followed him when he needed help the most, during his most difficult tis.
Couples who have gone through hardships together have the most solid foundation for their relationship.
"Husband, we know we might not be able to help much, and following you would only cause trouble. But we are really worried about your safety. You should take Sister Chang'e with you!"
Han Xiaoying, who was actually Chu Feng's primary wife, was willing to call Chang'e her sister.
This was all because of Chu Feng.
Chu Feng felt more tenderness towards her.
"Shennong Mountain, as one of the Four Great Super Forces, is deeply rooted with powerful figures everywhere. Feng, I must go with you!"
Chang'e's tone was very firm, without any intent of negotiation.
"You wouldn't be much help if you ca too! Besides, your identity is very special, and I don't want to trouble the Lord of Immortal Sword City." Chu Feng was a person with pride and dignity.
Chang'e was the daughter of the Lord of Immortal Sword City, even if she didn't want to acknowledge it, Chu Feng had to consider it.
He didn't want people to think that he was depending on the power of the Lord of Immortal Sword City to get things done.
Nor did he need to rely on anyone else; he alone would be enough.
"My matters have nothing to do with the Lord of Immortal Sword City!" Chang'e said again.
"Chang'e, don't be impulsive. With your cultivation, you can't suppress Shennong Mountain. By that ti, you'd have to rely on Zhong Zhan's strength, which essentially ans relying on the power of Immortal Sword City, doesn't it?"
Chu Feng patiently reasoned with her.
She wouldn't listen to others, but she would definitely listen to Chu Feng.
"But…" Chang'e still wanted to insist.
"Enough, if you truly love and care for , please leave the dignity of being a man. I will handle my own matters." Chu Feng did not wish to continue discussing the topic further with her.
Actually, if Chu Feng really needed help, he could completely ask Scholar Qin Jian for help.
The other party still owed him a debt of gratitude.
"Chang'e, stay in the Great Chu Empire during this period. With you around, the empire will fear no top experts infiltrating and stirring up trouble. If experts from the Undying Tomb co again, only you and Zhong Zhan will be able to stop them."
The experts from the Undying Tomb had suffered greatly under Chu Feng.
Chu Feng didn't believe they would let it go just like that.
They would definitely co again.
By then, without Chu Feng, Fang Xuanling and the others wouldn't be able to hold them off at all.
This ti, he finally convinced Chang'e.
After saying goodbye to his three wives, Chu Feng controlled his sword and left.
A day later, Chu Feng appeared in Black Water City. He ca here specifically to see Wen Shu.
Although only two days had passed since the great war, Black Water City was already being managed in an orderly manner. All the surrendered armies had been properly settled.
On the streets, one could even see quite a few citizens of Black Water City coming out to move about.
Reassuring the people is a very important asure.
It also tests the comprehensive ability of a commander. Wen Shu's ability to eliminate so of the people's fear and hostility in just two short days showed that he was extrely capable.
"Wen Shu, I have entrusted all military affairs to you. As long as you think sothing is feasible or necessary, you don't have to consult , just make your own decisions." As Wen Shu continued to show his loyalty and capability, Chu Feng increasingly valued him.
Few emperors throughout history dared to relinquish military power.
But Chu Feng dared.
Because even if Wen Shu did betray him, Chu Feng possessed the ability to suppress the rebellion. Moreover, he believed that Wen Shu was not such a person.
"This old minister is terrified. The Emperor assigning as the frontline Army Marshal poses no problem. However, making decisions on important military affairs, I dare not usurp authority." Wen Shu repeatedly declined.
At present, the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom had been more or less destroyed.
The other two opposing Heavenly Countries had also been severely weakened by Chu Feng.
It could be said that the general situation was settled, and Chu Feng had achieved significant success.
Often at tis like these, it was also the ti to reclaim power and eliminate ritorious subjects. Wen Shu's alarm was not without reason.
In terms of rit, Wen Shu could definitely rank first in the Great Chu Empire.
Moreover, Wen Shu controlled an army exceeding ten million.
This was a truly astonishing number.
No emperor would likely feel assured letting a single official control such enormous military power.
Therefore, Wen Shu felt that Chu Feng suddenly coming to the front line to find him was perhaps a preparation to wield the butcher's knife and eliminate ritorious officials.
Even if Chu Feng, as a benevolent ruler, didn't kill him, taking away his military power and letting him retire or hold an idle position would be perfectly normal.
"The capable should do more, asking you to beco the head of the military departnt is a decision I made after careful consideration and nurous trials. You need not harbor any doubts, just focus on doing your job well."
Chu Feng's assertiveness began to manifest at this mont.
"This Taiyi Secret Scroll is what I obtained by killing Master Wei. Study it well; it might significantly aid your Fengshui cultivation."
When Chu Feng took out the Taiyi Secret Scroll, Wen Shu's whole body trembled as if he were electrified.
He even looked at the Taiyi Secret Scroll in Chu Feng's hand with an expression almost of fanaticism.
It was only after Chu Feng handed the Taiyi Secret Scroll to him that Wen Shu awoke from his dreamlike state.
Thud!
Wen Shu suddenly knelt in front of Chu Feng, startling him greatly.
Despite being a Grand Marshal, he was acting like an inexperienced young man.
"Get up quickly, what are you doing?" Chu Feng hurriedly helped him up.
"The Emperor's imnse favor towards is as high as the sky and as deep as the sea. Wen Shu has nothing to repay in this life and wishes to follow the Emperor eternally, serving as your loyal subject." Wen Shu seed very emotional, his voice choked several tis.
Chu Feng was sowhat puzzled.
It was just a Taiyi Secret Scroll, was it necessary to make such a grand scene?
Perhaps noticing Chu Feng's confusion, Wen Shu voluntarily explained, "Perhaps the Emperor is not aware, but the Taiyi Secret Scroll is the most valuable among the three great Fengshui secret scrolls. Nearly all Fengshui Masters start by pursuing Qin Dunjia, Fengshui formations, and the like. But once they achieve a certain level of success, they discover that life is indeed too short."
"The path of Fengshui is vast and profound, hard to glimpse even a fraction of it with a lifeti's effort. It's at this ti that we who have achieved so success begin to subconsciously pursue immortality."
