Chapter 113: Getting a Taste of It
ate."I see."Shen Changqing nodded.Natural disasters during the growth period are already this terrifying. If there were truly natural disasters during the mature period, even a Guardian General would...“Lord Shen is here!”
>
Liu Jian, freshly clad in his new yamen official's attire, just happened to walk out of the government office and came face-to-face with Shen Changqing.
Looking at Liu Jian in front of him.
Although his face appeared normal, one could faintly see a slight pallor.
At the same time, a faint and eerie presence seemed to linger around the other person.
"Are you hurt"
Shen Changqing raised an eyebrow.
Upon hearing this.
Liu Jian shook his head and smiled wryly: "Last night, demons attacked the government office, killing and injuring many brothers. I was lucky enough to survive with only one life. Although I didn't have any serious injuries, for some reason, I always felt a chilling coldness."
"There might be something wrong, I'm going to the clinic to get checked out."
From the sinister aura and combining it with what the other party had said, Shen Changqing almost understood Liu Jian's reasons.
He stepped forward.
One hand rested on the other's shoulder.

The mighty Tianwu true qi flowed through Shen Changqing's arm and into Liu Jian's body, completely dispelling the lingering sinister aura within him.
For a while.
Liu Jian only felt that the chill was gone, his whole body was warm and cozy, as if he were surrounded by sunshine in the midst of winter. There was a feeling of indescribable comfort.

After a long while.
Shen Changqing retracted his palm, a faint smile on his face: "Liu Catcher is fine, just go to the medicine hall and get some medicine to regulate his body. As a martial artist, with vigorous qi and blood, he should recover soon."
“Thank you, Master Shen, for your help!”
Liu Jian cupped his hands in a gesture of thanks.
He could also understand that he was able to recover so quickly, it must be related to the other party's actions just now.
However, he was only a warrior of the Body Tempering Realm and had limited knowledge about martial arts.
"Is Lord Nie in the yamen"
"Master is in the study, you may go see him."
Here is your text translated to English:

"Okay."
Shen Changqing nodded and walked towards the yamen, while Liu Jian also hurried in the direction of the medical hall.
Even though Shen Changqing came to help.
But without going to the doctor for a check-up, he wasn't very reassured.
On the other side.
Chen Changqing entered the inner hall of the government office as if he were walking in his own home.
Perhaps because many people had died in the yamen recently, there was no guard to intercept him.
There was a knock on the door.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Nie Xu's voice came from inside.
Come in!
Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing pushed open the door and walked in.
“Master Shen has arrived!”
Nie Xu raised his head and looked at Shen Changqing who pushed the door in, a faint smile appearing on his face.
Meanwhile.
Shen Changqing's gaze also fell on Nie Xu.
"Lord Nie certainly has refined taste. With the demonic incursion at the yamen last night, I'm surprised to see you here today, so composed."
>
In his gaze.
Nie Xu was writing, composing poems and prose. The official air about him seemed to dissipate, replaced instead by a more pronounced scholarly elegance.
That's all I have to say on that.
>
Shen Changqing paused for a moment, then said straight to the point: "I heard that last night, demonic creatures attacked the government office. It was Nie DaRen who took action and beheaded the demonic creatures. The saying that righteous qi can eliminate demonic creatures, I have also heard quite a bit."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It is a pity that there are not many Confucian scholars who can cultivate boundless righteousness within the Qin Empire.
But those who can slay demons with righteous indignation are exceedingly rare.
But I never expected that such a high-ranking person would be hidden around me.
"Mr. Shen is jesting, a mere trace of righteousness can't compare to Mr. Shen's innate energy and ability to suppress demons."
Nie Xu shook his head, but his hands continued to move.
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing's eyes were deep and insightful.
“Although that may be so, I am quite curious about this righteous indignation. Perhaps Master Nie could give me an opportunity to truly witness it for myself!”
"Is this true"
"Really!"
Shen Changqing nodded, his face solemn.
Hao ran zhengqi is quite mysterious, and rumors even involve spiritual techniques.
To be honest.
He didn't have much understanding of the spiritual realm. In the past, when dealing with demons and ghosts, he would sometimes be affected by illusions they used to influence him.
In fact.
As one's own strength grows, the illusions created by demons and monsters generally no longer have any effect.
And such an illusionary influence, for Shen Changqing, had no special feeling.
So.
He wanted to approach it from the aspect of righteousness and grandeur, to see if there was a chance that when facing righteousness and grandeur, he could take the opportunity to gain more insights into the true meaning of martial arts.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It is said that when martial arts reach a certain level, one can naturally comprehend the true meaning of the martial way.
But for Shen Changqing,
Such a statement is too vague.
To what level must martial arts be practiced to achieve an understanding of the true meaning of martial arts
>
"Good!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Nie Xu nodded, the words he was writing seemed to have reached an end.
>
Suddenly.
The atmosphere in the study grew heavy.
In Shen Changqing's gaze, Nie Xu seemed to have something inexplicable burgeoning on him. At the same time, the words he wrote on the paper glowed faintly, making people unable to help but be engrossed in them.
Next.
Nie Xu's brushstrokes flowed like a raging river, transforming the pristine white paper into a canvas of crimson.
But the words recorded above did not disappear when the paper was reduced to powder, instead they broke free from the confines of the paper and remained suspended in mid-air.
>
Every single character.
>
All have a faint glow.
Then those lights separated from the other characters and moved back toward one of the sword characters.
Having absorbed a massive amount of spiritual energy, the sword character seemed to come to life. In Shen Changqing's gaze, it was no longer just a character but a divine weapon about to be unsheathed.
At that moment.
There are boundless blades being cultivated, as if they were a great threat to him.
But.
Within that threat, there was also a kind of sensory perception that seemed unreal.
The entire process seemed slow, but it actually happened in the blink of an eye. Nie Xu lightly uttered a word from his mouth, and the sound vibrated like thunder.
“Slash!”
Then he spoke.
Sword out.
The long-held sharpness, accompanied by the unsheathing of a peerless divine weapon, seemed to conjure endless blades that slashed towards Shen Changqing.
For a moment.
Shen Changqing instinctively drew upon his Tianwu True Qi. A layer of powerful qi manifested around him, attempting to block the incoming sword strike.
Hum—
The congenital true qi was ineffective, easily pierced through by the long sword.
Just when Shen Changqing thought he was going to die, he felt the long sword vanish without a trace.
All visions disappear.
When I looked back at the study, Nie Xu was still standing there. There was a pile of powder on the table, and apart from that, it seemed nothing had changed.
For a moment, silence fell over the scene.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
Shen Changqing closed his eyes for a long time, savoring the sword strike he had just made. After a long while, he opened his eyes, his face filled with admiration.
"So this is righteous qi, truly formidable. Although Lord Nie's righteous qi now cannot affect martial artists much, it is extremely restraining to demons."
That sword, even a resentful and eerie monster could fall!
At this point, he fully understood what it meant to possess noble righteousness.
The righteousness that Nie Xu displays is actually a powerful Yang energy, while demons and evils belong to the Yin attribute. Therefore, the two naturally can restrain each other.
Conversely.
If the power of extreme yang is not strong enough, it has no significant constraint on the human race.
But.
>
Please note that the original content was already in English.
This doesn't mean that righteousness truly has no effect on the human race.
If one's righteous qi is strong enough, it can eliminate a martial artist's divine sense, and in extreme cases, even their physical body can be obliterated.
>
This is the power of righteous indignation.
However, with Nie Xu's current strength, he is unable to achieve this level for now. Nonetheless, the righteousness contained within it is enough to deal with ordinary vengeful spirits.
To be honest.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Those who have never truly experienced the magnificence of righteousness will never be able to comprehend its profundity.
Only after witnessing such righteousness, did Shen Changqing understand that the saying "a Confucian scholar kills without a tangible weapon" was true.
Hearing the praise, Nie Xu also had a faint smile on his face, but his aura was much more downcast. The righteous energy from that strike had also taken a toll on him.
"Lord Shen, your praise is appreciated. While righteous energy is indeed powerful, if it hasn't reached a profound level, it's not as practical as a martial artist's true qi."
Just like the official's sword, imbued with twenty years of righteous indignation, it couldn't harm Shen.
"One day, after his transformation, Nie Da Ren's swordsmanship will naturally become renowned throughout the world!"
Shen Changqing shook his head, his expression incomparably solemn.
He didn't mean it as a compliment, but rather stated it plainly.
>
It's not like anyone can strike with a sword of that caliber.
This is just a placeholder.
To be honest.
Even Shen Changqing himself, might not be able to wield a blade comparable to the one just now.
Though his One Hundred Battles Blade Technique was powerful.
In terms of understanding at the same level, he was slightly inferior to Nie Xu.
"To be honest, if Lord Nie gave up literature and took up martial arts, he might also become a top expert one day!"
Shen Changqing said.
The opponent's newly revealed methods are both a manifestation of righteous integrity and an understanding of swordsmanship, just expressed in a different way.
Therefore, it can be seen.

Nie Xu has already qualified to comprehend the true meaning of martial arts.
Nie Xu shook his head and smiled: "This official has limited talent in martial arts. I once thought about wielding a sword across the world, but now I think about it, it was just youthful ignorance."
He just said it simply and then stopped talking about it.
> Next.
Nie Xu's smile vanished from his face, and his expression once again grew serious.
“Sir Shen’s visit to the yamen is not simply to witness this official’s lofty righteousness, I believe. You should have heard about the barbarian affair as well.”
When mentioning the barbarians.
Shen Changqing also straightened his face and nodded.
“Well, besides admiring Mr. Nie's lofty righteousness this time, my main purpose is because of the barbarians.”
It is heard that several cities representing the gates of Dahuang Prefecture have been breached, and barbarians are advancing in full force.

"I wonder, sir Nie, what are your thoughts on this matter"
The barbarian affair.
