His Majesty Has Passed Away

"Heading to the realm of gods again!"

Zhang Xuezhou returned home on time.

He drove around aimlessly in his little car every day, making it very difficult for Turkalando to catch him.

The Sequence Committee Research Institute that Zhang Xuezhou went to was a highly confidential location, and the North Rehe Research Institute was similar in nature. The place where Ren Yisheng's body was stored at the Jishi Medical Center in the Academy District had been equipped with electronic doors, making it difficult for her to enter and exit freely.

This prevented Turkalando from successfully following Zhang Xuezhou for several days.

It wasn't until Zhang Xuezhou had settled many matters that Turkalando finally met Zhang Xuezhou.

But in just two short hours, Zhang Xuezhou closed his eyes and fell silent.

Turcalando mustered his courage and used his divine magic again. The feeling of lack of perception surged into his mind, which made Turcalando certain once again that Zhang Xuezhou had run to another world.

"God once said that they could bring people into the world, and that as long as a suitable physical body was arranged, they could go to another world. Is he God or a messenger of God?"

If Zhang Xuezhou is a god, Turkalando feels that he is probably the weakest god she has ever seen. It is difficult to sense any special authority or great ability from him, and he is just like many others, constantly struggling in the mortal world.

If Zhang Xuezhou is a divine messenger, Zhang Xuezhou has also traveled between worlds, and at this moment he is not in the same world as her.

This bizarre discrepancy made it difficult for Turcalando to discern the truth.

She didn't mention this strange feeling to Zhang Manqian, but instead calmed down to feel it, even waiting for the mystery to be revealed one day.

The Turks have countless questions in their hearts that God needs to answer. Their lifelong wish is not to do anything great for the country or the people, or to amass great wealth and have many lovers, but to follow God's glory and walk with Him.

This can be described as a religious culture, but it is also the true source of the cohesion among the Tur people.

For Turkalando, who was influenced by the culture of Turkal, the impact of this matter was so great that it was worth any price she could pay.

That's why, when Zhang Xuezhou asked her about the technical information she could obtain, Turkalando didn't hesitate for a moment, nor did she care about the future distribution of profits.

If Zhang Xuezhou asks for it again, Turkalando can still give it to him.

She watched as Zhang Xuezhou 'Zhang Xuezhou physical condition, her thoughts drifting.

She thought of her mother, Turcolando, and her gaze swept in the direction of the Jishi Medical Center.

"It's a pity Ren died, otherwise, with the embryo culture technology that Mother currently possesses, it would have been quite an interesting thing to have hundreds or even thousands of younger brothers and sisters for Ren!"

After several days of contact, Zhang Manqian had become quite reassured about Turkalando.

Perhaps it was the aura she carried that ultimately had an effect, or perhaps it was the technical information she provided, that caused Zhang Manqian to no longer be wary of Turkalando.

Looking at Zhang Xuezhou, who was in a state of physiological abnormality, Turkalando reached out and touched him for a few seconds, but she eventually put aside her thoughts of examination and testing, and then opened Ren Yisheng's scraps of paper.

"Her behavior wasn't excessive. You're right, brother; the divine practices of their Tuer tribe are indeed somewhat strange!"

Watching Turkalando touch Zhang Xuezhou's face in the surveillance footage before ceasing further actions, Zhang Manqian breathed a sigh of relief.

She wasn't entirely unguarded with Turkalando, but she found that the longer she spent with him, the more easily she developed feelings of closeness and intimacy.

In just over ten days, she felt as if she had known Turkalando for almost ten years.

This is Zhang Xuezhou's mention of Turkalando's strange ability. Zhang Manqian did not notice anything unusual at first, but things changed over time.

She could hold off Tulcrandot for a short time, but she couldn't withstand prolonged attacks.

This led Zhang Manqian to monitor and supervise Turkalando while keeping an eye on him, so as not to be affected and cause her to overlook some minor negative issues.

Fortunately, Turcalando did have very complicated feelings for Zhang Xuezhou, and her behavior did not cross any lines.

As the surveillance footage swept across Ren Yisheng's pile of scrap paper, Zhang Manqian couldn't help but reflect on her own many abilities.

Her gaze swept over the Crane Blood Potion that Zhang Xuezhou had bought on credit, then she looked at the information on the Person-Fixing Technique, then focused on the Mental Strengthening Chapter, and finally scanned her own "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Fighting Technique".

With so much to learn, prioritizing is essential.

Furthermore, Zhang Manqian is also involved in genetic research.

This was a path she had given up when she was an advanced student at the Shengteng Academy, but with the development following the sequencing conference, she had to pick up her old major again, and even needed to study it in great depth.

The research institute consumes astronomical sums of money, and failed experiments only make matters worse.

But if they want to move forward, and go far, they must take this step.

"We must learn from Senior Zhou Yueyan!"

This division of labor between her and Zhang Xuezhou is not unusual; Zhou Rihui and Zhou Yueyan from the Zhou family were a similar pair, one specializing in ruthlessness and the other in research.

Among the many Lineage in the Scarlet Alliance State, this seamless partnership propelled the Zhou family to continuous advancement, ultimately leading to Zhou Xin replacing Chang Kongluo as the First Committee Member.

"If only we could one day become the first committee member..."

Zhang Manqian thought about her ideal outcome, then glanced at Turkalando beside Zhang Xuezhou, and finally plunged headlong into the sea of learning.

Not to mention Zhang Weimeng, who was directing the filming of outdoor scenes on set, and Song Fengying, who was actively involved in filming and live streaming, none of the Zhang family members were idle.

Amidst the howling north wind, Zhang Xuezhou thought that with so many things left undone, he should also learn the Supreme Purity True Technique, and then easily guide the Northern Border Army through the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, thus accomplishing all his tasks.

As for what happens next, he should meet up with Rong Tianding, and then the two cousins will wander around towards Chang'an City, or accompany Zhang Cigong to the location of the Beast Taming Sect to search for treasure.

But when he regained consciousness, he saw a tall, burly military general standing before him, exuding an imposing aura.

When his gaze swept over his body, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but shiver.

Li Jiao and Dong Zhongshu were also waiting not far away.

"I knew he would wake up around this time," Dong Zhongshu said. "Prefect Li, please help us resolve these chronic ailments!"

I can't handle you!

The military officer shook his head, a slight headache evident in his gaze as he swept over Dong Zhongshu.

"Even if you don't cure me, you'd better suppress him," Dong Zhongshu said. "I'm usually a man who keeps his mouth shut, so you don't need to be so wary of me!"

The Confucian School principle of keeping one's mouth shut is renowned throughout the world!

When Dong Zhongshu mentioned Prefect Li, and Li Jiao showed a restrained demeanor, the military officer's identity in the room was immediately apparent.

Zhang Xuezhou never expected that in just a few days, he would arrive at the place of the strongest person in the Northern Border. The change of location caught Zhang Xuezhou somewhat off guard.

But Zhang Xuezhou remained silent, waiting for the negotiations between Dong Zhongshu and Li Guang to conclude.

Although Li Guang did not show any sarcasm, Li Guang words were clearly not positive, but rather contained irony.

"I can swear," Dong Zhongshu said.

"What I'm more curious about is, where did you get the information that I'm proficient in the Jade Purity True Technique?" Li Guang asked.

"This..."

"If I remember correctly, the person I previously treated with the Jade Purity True Technique was also Confucian School, and he promised me to keep it a secret and swear not to reveal it!"

Dong Zhongshu's expression turned slightly grim, then became solemn.

"The court is rife with infighting. Although I am not talented, I can at least stand by and help you, General," Dong Zhongshu advised. "Why should Prefect Li hold this matter against you?"

"This is not something to hold a grudge over," Li Guang frowned. "Even you know about it, I'm afraid His Majesty..."

"His Majesty has passed away, and the new emperor is young; he would certainly not know of this matter!"

Dong Zhongshu's head shook his head, and Li Guang pondered for several seconds without giving a definite response.

"He is also a Confucian scholar, and we are comrades. If General Li does not save me, it will be difficult to obtain a passage through the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. Moreover, His Majesty's death will surely provoke the Xiong State to make trouble. If you do not save me, that's one thing, but I'm afraid the lives of thousands of soldiers will also be lost!"

Dong Zhongshu found it difficult to persuade Li Guang.

This prompted him to give Zhang Xuezhou a wink, after which his words began to carry a hint of threat.

Zhang Xuezhou's gaze swept over Dong Zhongshu, and then inadvertently swept over Li Guang.

Dong Zhongshu's identity is questionable, and Li Guang's identity also seems to be questionable.

It was one thing for Dong Zhongshu to impersonate the manager of a merchant group, but Li Guang was the governor of the Northern Border, overseeing one of the three most dangerous border passes of the Han Dynasty.

Correspondingly, the number of legions stationed in these areas accounted for nearly one-fifth of the regular army strength of the Han Dynasty.

The possibility that such a person's identity might be questionable made Zhang Xuezhou gasp in alarm.
