The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 155: War preparation

Not stopping Jian Shen despite knowing that he was just making an excuse, Wuying waited until she could no longer sense him before leaving the bed and meeting Yu Yan.

As for Qingyu and Juewang, they had already left alongside Jian Shen.

"I think I've seen you somewhere."

"Me too."

Thinking for a few seconds, both of the women shrugged at the same time and chose to not think about it anymore.

"Do you know where we are?"

Answering after thinking for a while since she herself didn't know the proper answer, Yu Yan said, "Inside a special treasure Jian Shen has."

Nodding her head from having expected this, Wuying spoke after thinking for a while.

"And those two women?"

Seeing whom Wuying was pointing at, Yu Yan shrugged her shoulders for the second time.

"They've been there cultivating the same way since I came here."

"When did you come here?"

"Less than a day back."

Hearing those words Wuying smiled at how the beautiful woman didn't have much of an advantage over her, and at the same time felt a little regret from not being attacked by those assassins sooner.

"Ummm... When did you meet Jian Shen?"

"Me? I know him from a long time back."

Speaking in a proud tone, Yu Yan tried her best to seem like she and Jian Shen were betrothed when both of them were young.

Unfortunately, Wuying who knew more about Jian Shen's past than Yu Yan immediately sensed that she was lying.

Seeing the mysterious smile on Wuying's face which seemed to be saying that she saw through her words, Yu Yan sighed in defeat and asked, "How long have you known him?"

"A lot longer than you."

Leaving the World Crest after he washed in the little stream of water that flowed inside it, Jian Shen was dressed in spotless white robes like usual.

With the black and white swords on the sides of his waist which were soon turning iconic and synonymous with Jian Shen, he started flying towards the courtyard he was given.

Not entering it since he could sense the five girls he had sex with sleeping soundly, Jian Shen decided to go somewhere else and cultivate.

After comprehending the Intent of Lightning while slaughtering the assassins one by one, Jian Shen had realized how much stronger it was to use two Intents instead of a single one.

Especially given how much faster he became after comprehending the Intent of Lightning, and using it alongside the Intent of Wind.

Right now, Jian Shen had already comprehended two separate Intents even though it had been less than a day since he entered the Dharma Realm.

And if he chose to, Jian Shen could without any doubt comprehend even more Intents of Heaven and Earth by the time the sun came out.

Still, Jian Shen instead of doing any such thing or increasing his comprehension on the Intent of Lightning and making it reach the same level as his Intent of Wind, he chose to focus on comprehending the Intent of Wind.

This was because Jian Shen wanted to know how much he could comprehend a particular Intent, and how strong the Intent of Wind would be at its peak.

Flying up and looking around him, Jian Shen spotted a hill not too far from the capital city.

The hill wasn't too tall or any such thing, but it was higher than any of the other buildings inside the capital city which made it the spot that was closest to the sky around him.

Sitting on the hill's peak which just like the rest of it was covered in lush grass, Jian Shen took out three Wind Intent Crystals and allowed them to show their power.

...

After Wuying was attacked and Jian Shen took her away, Li Qiao no longer cared about hosting banquets in hopes of swaying Wuying and make her support him in the war.

Making his soldiers leave no stone unturned as they scavenged around the dead assassins to find any clues or hints about anyone else inside the capital city that might be spies of the Taiyang Empire, Li Qiao called forth a meeting to be taken place early in the morning.

As for who were invited to the meeting, other than the Head Generals who commanded the army under him, Li Qiao called for all of the wandering cultivators and Sect Disciples who decided to support him.

Also, he even invited the three Sect Leaders to attend the meeting as well.

Because even though they wouldn't be taking place in the war personally, they would serve as a deterring factor to hold back the Sect Leaders who were supporting the Taiyang Empire.

Li Qiao divided the cultivators who decided to support him based on their cultivation and formed multiple small units to support the army which was made up of cultivators in the Qi Crystal Core Realm.

These soldiers were led by hundred man generals in the Earth Realm, thousand man generals in the Sky Realm, and ten thousand man generals in the Mystic Realm.

As for those in the Dharma Realm, they were either hundred thousand man generals or were in groups with the other Dharma Realm Cultivators to form special units.

It was the same for those in the Sage Realm as well. They were either million man generals or formed special units which would serve as Li Qiao's hidden cards.

And finally, those very few rare cultivators in the Saint Realm.

They either served directly under Li Qiao to control the army as the Head Generals or protected him and the royal family from the shadows.
