Aftermath

Almost all the experts who remained in Eastern Heaven Prefecture were killed before their very eyes!

Qin Yan originally wanted to look for Hu Zhanfeng, but after searching around, he couldn't find any trace of him.

Seeing the densely packed Taiping Army throughout the city, Qin Yan ultimately chose to retreat.

In any case, he has already exceeded his mission objectives.

Before long, his name will be known throughout the entire Great Li!

Dongying Prefecture!

"You saved him so quickly?"

Zhu Hai looked at Qin Yan with a surprised expression, his brows slightly furrowed. "Have you been discovered?"

"I have already shot and killed the Daoist Kushan."

Qin Yan took out the small cauldron that sealed the Green Sha- level evil artifact. "Here's what you wanted!"

Feeling the terrifying evil energy emanating from the small cauldron, Zhu Hai was utterly shocked.

A night later, Qin Yan actually killed a Qi Refining Realm cultivator from the enemy's main camp.

He seemed to have severely underestimated the strength of the person before him.

"Oh, by the way, after completing the mission, I casually killed a few Innate Martial Artists."

There's another Grandmaster!

Qin Yan thought for a moment and said, "These people must be experts in the Taiping Army. Killing them should greatly alleviate the situation at the front."

"What!"

Zhu Hai was instantly shocked, thinking he understood, "You said you killed a Grandmaster and several Xiantian Realm experts."

"Including the Daoist Kushan, there are a total of four Xiantian, and one Grandmaster who wields a sword."

Qin Yan spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Hai trembled and asked uncertainly, "Inspector Qin, I wonder about your current strength!"

"If you really think about it, it should be Xiantian!"

Qin Yan remained calm.

However, this stirred up a storm in Zhu Hai's heart. "He hasn't even reached the Xiantian Realm yet, but once he reaches the Xiantian Realm, he'll be even more formidable, capable of directly killing Grandmaster."

"Inspector Qin, this matter is of utmost importance. I must negotiate with the Imperial City Bureau."

If this is true, then Inspector Qin, you have done a great service this time.

Promotion and higher rank are a given.

With that, Zhu Hai handed the small cauldron back to Qin Yan: "Please keep this safe. We'll hand it over to the Demon-Suppressing Bureau Division headquarters once we enter the Capital!"

He then hurriedly left the Demon-Suppressing Bureau!

What's wrong with this guy?

Qin Yan looked at the small cauldron in his hand with some frustration. Why couldn't he get rid of it?

"What?! You killed a Grandmaster!"

Xia Chengqian's eyes widened after hearing this, wondering if he had misheard.

The most shocking one was Peng Tao!

He himself was a veteran Grandmaster, and Qin Yan's ability to kill a Grandmaster truly shocked him.

That's Grandmaster.

Even excluding Qin Yan's advancement to the Innate Martial Artist, he is still a whole realm below the Grandmaster.

"This kid was probably hiding his true strength!"

Peng Tao's heart was filled with turmoil, and his gaze toward Qin Yan changed repeatedly.

Fighting someone of the same cultivation level doesn't necessarily mean you can kill a Grandmaster.

But Qin Yan did just that.

The skill level in archery is simply unimaginable.

Regardless, Qin Yan achieved a remarkable feat, becoming Grandmaster at the initial stage of the Xiantian Realm.

How many people in this world can do that?

Red Ridge!

Ye Yingshan was stationed at the front-line military camp, received a message from Dongying Prefecture.

"The Taiping Army's Grandmaster has been killed."

Ye Yingshan couldn't help but take a deep breath; the news was simply too shocking.

Especially since the enemy was shot and killed in their rear base camp, along with many Xiantian masters!

"Commander Yun, this news must be verified as soon as possible."

"Rest assured, I will give General Ye a reply within a day."

Yun Zhao immediately spoke seriously.

Soon after, they received the news from the spies in Eastern Heaven Prefecture.

Someone forcefully killed five powerful figures, including the Five Absolutes Blades, all of whom were shot with arrows.

Even a master at the Xiantian Realm couldn't withstand a single arrow.

Five Absolutes Blade Chi Yifeng was killed by three arrows!

Such a large commotion could not be concealed, which greatly diminished the morale of the Taiping Army.

The martial arts master, who had repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, was killed in his own lair.

The impact of this is extremely profound.

"Qin Yan of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau Division!"

Ye Yingshan was extremely excited. "I never expected that there was such a hidden master in the Demon-Suppressing Bureau."

This matter must be reported to His Majesty to revitalize the morale of our Great Li Army.

The Great Li Army has always been at a disadvantage when facing the Taiping Army.

Now that Qin Yan's affair has occurred, we must publicize it vigorously to dampen the Taiping Army's morale!

This matter must be sent to the Capital with utmost urgency.

Ye Yingshan immediately gave the order!

"Yes!"

One of the guards received the order and immediately went out to make the arrangements!

"This Qin Yan is so skilled, his Archery is superb. I wonder if we could recruit him into our army? If he could kill an enemy general in battle, it would probably further weaken the Taiping Army!"

Ye Yingshan's deputy immediately suggested an idea.

"I have already investigated this child. He is only fifteen years old now, and according to my estimation, his cultivation level should have already broken through to the Xiantian."

He has already set a record as the youngest Xiantian expert in the Great Li Dynasty!

Surpassed Qin Zhu, the Demon-Suppressing General of the Demon-Suppressing Compass!

Yun Zhao said with a smile.

"They both share the surname Qin, could it be..."

Deputy General Deng Xizhou looked startled.

"General Deng is overthinking it. Although they both share the surname Qin, they are not from the same Lineage and there is no relation between them."

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhao smiled and explained.

They actually invited you to Red Ridge!

Upon seeing the letter, Xia Chengqian couldn't help but purse his lips. "This guy is popular everywhere he goes."

"Who says otherwise?" Qin Yan put a hand on Xia Chengqian's shoulder. "How about it, Your Highness, would you allow me to earn some military merits, since we've already dealt with the Taiping Army?"

It also makes things much safer.

"Go ahead! Do you think I can stop you?"

Xia Chengqian, hands on his hips, said magnanimously.

A powerful expert capable of shooting down Grandmaster, especially one who can snipe from a kilometer away!

This is the kind of person I absolutely need to win over at all costs.

Uncle Peng had already instructed him to be on good terms with Qin Yan no matter what.

This will only benefit him in the future, and will not do him any harm.

"Then thank you very much, Your Highness."

Qin Yan grinned, waved goodbye, and took his leave.

As soon as the person left, Peng Tao stepped forward, looking in the direction Qin Yan had indeed gone, his expression complicated.

"Qin Yan's power has been established. His Archery are too terrifying. Xiantian killing Grandmaster with his innate talent, a feat rarely seen in history."

The only one who can rival him is Qin Zhu, the Southern Demon-Suppressing General, who has already reached the level of Supreme Grandmaster.

It held a pivotal position in the entire imperial court.

Qin Yan is the second Qin Zhu!

We must win him over; he will be a huge asset to both Prince Jing and you in the future.

Xia Chengqian nodded solemnly. Born into the royal family, he had no choice in many things.

His only son, Prince Jing, might not have a future.

Naturally, one also needs to plan for oneself.

On the other side!

Qin Yan arrived at the camp where Tang Xianzong and his men were stationed without stopping.

"Grown ups!"

"Everyone assemble, head to Red Ridge. I will lead you to earn military merit."

Qin Yan chuckled lightly!

"Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xianzong and the others burst into ecstatic joy!

Five hundred light cavalrymen assembled and followed Qin Yan to Red Ridge.
