"Of course there is. In fact, they were originally prisoners who had committed crimes and were taken to do hard labor by the court.
Later, when he sold it to my Shen family, they were spared their punishment, and he became a servant of my Shen family.
Of course, they now belong to the Tang family." Shen Gongyang said.
"Okay, I'll send someone with your people to take over right away." Tang Wen nodded.
"That's fine, just take the Flying Eagle. If you take turns flying, you can get there in a few days." Shen Gongyang nodded.
Below, Shen Gongyang and Chu Cong practice together behind closed doors.
As soon as Tang Wen left, Chu Cong asked, "What do you think of Tang Wen, Brother Shen?"
"I'm not qualified to be recommended to the secret agent's house." Shen Gongyang shook his head.
"Brother Shen, with the help of Holy Spirit Water this time, should be able to enter Juyuan. By then, you should be able to be promoted to deputy hall master, and then you will be qualified to introduce him to the door." Chu Cong said.
"How strong is this person? I can't tell." Shen Gongyang asked.
"You should have Xiantian realm strength." Chu Cong said.
"The conditions have been met," Shen Gongyang said.
"That's right, I entered the Secret Agent Mansion when I was in the second rank.
Although he is just an ordinary spy, he can still be regarded as a secret agent of our court.
If he has perfect innate strength, he should be able to become a squad leader after working for two years." Chu Cong said.
"Chu Cong, I want to say sorry to you." Shen Gongyang said.
"Are you saying that my promotion to squad leader has gone south?" Chu Cong was stunned.
"That's true, because a squad leader is in charge of three or four people, and they are all super-grade. Therefore, the squad leader must at least be innate." Shen Gongyang said.
"Then why did I enter the Secret Agent Mansion at the second level before?" Chu Cong asked with some confusion.
"Don't you understand yet?" Shen Gongyang said.
"Because of my old man?" Chu Cong was stunned and suddenly felt quite disappointed.
"Back then, your grandfather blocked a flying arrow for the Supreme Emperor. Therefore, the royal family must give your grandfather a little face.
Otherwise, you won't be able to get started. You have to know that our Chu Dynasty has a population of nearly two billion and tens of millions of warriors.
Linghai is just a small place, and the closer you get to the capital, the more powerful your force becomes.
In fact, there have been a lot of wars recently, and the court also needs to strengthen its strength.
Therefore, I heard that another official document was issued internally, raising the threshold for secret agents to innate.
From now on, a squad leader will need the strength of the Yangyuan Realm. A altar leader will need the Half-Step Juyuan Realm, and the helmsman will need the strength of the Juyuan Perfection Realm.
Like the deputy hall leader, you have to take a half-step to the Nian Nian Realm.
As for people like you who come in through the back door, they will basically be stopped from now on, and no royal relatives will be allowed to interfere.
Because spies are the true confidants of the emperor, and every spy has to go through hundreds of battles.
Like the church in Zhuhai Holy City, if I can advance to the Juyuan Realm now, I can be promoted to the church master immediately.
Because the official document has not been officially issued yet, I can take advantage of this loophole.
Once it is issued, I will have no chance. So, I will go all out this time and burn the boat.
I believed that my family would support me, so I dared to sign a contract with Tang Wen immediately.
However, despite this, even though I was promoted to deputy hall master.
However, competition will become increasingly fierce in the future," Shen Gongyang said.
"That's true, if your subordinates are more powerful than you, how will you take care of them?" Chu Cong nodded.
"So, the position of the deputy hall master is not easy to sit in, and someone will poke you in the butt at any time.
Therefore, we cannot relax at all and must become stronger and stronger again.
Otherwise, they will be eliminated. In fact, not only us, Six Doors will also undergo reforms, and they have also raised their requirements.
Recently, I don't know what's going on, but because of the war, not only the court, but also all the major sects seem to be holding back their efforts and bringing out the best things from the bottom of the box to train masters.
For example, regarding the ten Haisheng sects, I heard that all of their sects have reached the stage of Juyuan Perfection.
Even the top three of the ten Sea Saint Sects have appeared in the Tong Nian Realm." Shen Gongyang said.
"This shows that the major sects, including the imperial court, have not yet used their full strength.
In the past, there were still many good things hidden that had not been brought out for use.
Now that the war is raging, we are forced to go to Liangshan and have to move the good things out." Chu Cong said.
"Of course. In fact, there is a lot of fiction and reality here. Not to mention that the six gates are not clear, even our secret agent's house is not very clear. After all, this world is too big. It's the same with your father-in-law.
." Shen Gongyang said.
"What's wrong with my old man? Although he is the current prince, he is at the bottom among the eight princes. His skills are too poor. He pins all his hopes on me." Chu Cong said.
"Shit!" Shen Gong said loudly.
"You..." Chu Cong asked in confusion.
"Your old man is also an old fox. Who said he is bad? He is a strong person in the Tong Nian realm. Of course, he is only half-step into the Tong Nian realm and has not yet fully entered it." Shen Gong said.
"I...my father is half-stepped into the state of enlightenment, how is it possible? Isn't he innate?" Chu Cong looked shocked and could not speak clearly.
"What a piece of shit! I'm just deceiving you. Our experts in the Secret Service know some of this, but they don't know everything.
For example, among the eight great princes, some of them have reached the state of concentration. Of course your father, Half-Step Tong Nian, will be at the bottom.
If you can cross over to Tong Nian, you will at least pass.
Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing among the princes. No wonder the emperor would look down on him.
According to rumors, someone suggested that the Duke should be re-examined and selected.
What should be done should be done, and what should be done should be done up. However, this matter is too big for the emperor to resolve at the moment.
After all, there are too many things involved. For example, the merits of ancestors, some power, financial resources, population and clansmen, some human relationships, etc.
However, Chu Cong, you have to work hard. Otherwise, even if your father can persevere, he will probably have to lose his title when it is your turn.
At that time, he will be demoted to a marquis. If your father is demoted, you will be finished in the future. At most, you will be an earl.
In our great Chu Dynasty, there were still quite a few counts.
However, there are few marquis and even fewer dukes, only eight." Shen Gongyang said.
"Understood." Chu Cong sat down with a heavy heart and started practicing again.
"I didn't expect Chu Guang to be so powerful?" Wen Jinyuan looked at the surveillance camera and exclaimed in amazement.
"I didn't expect that the strength of Linghai warriors was so different from that of the capital." Tang Wen nodded.
"Linghai is indeed too remote. Even compared with Haisheng City, the gap is very obvious." Wen Jinyuan said.
"So, in the future, if we want to expand our business to Haisheng City and the capital, we must cultivate a group of strong people. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the Tang family's business to continue." Wen Jinyuan said.
"Chu Cong intends to recommend you to join the secret agent's house, what do you think?" Wen Jinyuan asked.
"As a errand, forget it. Once you enter the secret agent's house, you probably won't be able to help yourself." Tang Wen shook his head.
"Although it will be a little troublesome, the power is not small." Wen Jinyuan said.
"Haha, Shen Gongyang's status in the secret agent's house is still too low. If you want me to join the secret agent's house, you must give me freedom." Tang Wen said with a smile.
"It's hard to have both fish and bear's paws." Wen Jinyuan shook his head.
A few days later, Wang Haiting sent someone to send the surveillance video of Linghai Academy.
I saw the academy guardian ‘Lin Zhi’ put away the dishes, closed the shop door and quietly went out through the back door.
He climbed directly over the wall to enter Linghai Academy, and then went down to the back mountain.
Soon, I stopped on the top of the back mountain.
There is actually a sinkhole at the foot. The sinkhole is not big, only about one mile in radius.
Lin Zhi, as light as an ape, climbed the branches and rock walls and slid to the bottom of the sinkhole.
The tiankeng is estimated to be 300 meters above the ground, surrounded by mountains, and looks like a huge well.
There are four small houses there, two floors, a wooden house, a bamboo house, a stone house, and an iron house.
"Everyone, our Linghai Academy has suffered an unprecedented disaster." Lin Zhi said, clasping his fists towards several houses.
Suddenly, the doors of the four houses opened almost simultaneously, and four old men walked out.
What walked out of the wooden house was a thin old man wearing a wooden skin. The old man in the bamboo house had a bamboo hairpin on his head.
The old man in the stone house was actually covered in pieces of stone scale clothing woven from extremely thin jade.
The old man in the iron house was wearing an iron helmet and armor, with only his face exposed.
"Have you eaten too much noodles?" the old man in the bamboo house snorted.
"Lao Zhu, Lao Mu, Lao Shi, Lao Tie, I will not come to disturb you as a last resort." Lin Zhi said.
"In the small Linghai Province, apart from Yimu Palace, there are no powerful sects or forces.
Since Yimu Palace still has relations with us, they should not be our enemies.
Besides them, who else can bring disaster to us?" Tie Lao snorted.
"The four of you have not been out of the trap for ten years. Linghai is also full of talented people. Recently, an arrogant kid came out. His name is Tang Wen..." Lin Zhi said.
"How can a down-and-out aristocrat who has only been stubborn for more than a year force Linghai Academy to be like this? Lin Zhi, let me see if you, the venerable guardian of the academy, are living longer and returning home?" Mu Lao said with a cold face.
"You don't know how to deal with him yourself? You actually come to work for us." Shi Lao said with a stinky face.
"There are too many people staring at him right now, and I can't take action.
Otherwise, Linghai Academy will be harmed. Unless he dies in the hands of thieves from the Kingdom of the Sun, so it is best to kill him on the battlefield.
That way, others will have nothing to say." Lin Zhi shook his head.
"You mean to use the battle of Qilin Island to kill him?" Tie Lao asked.
"I have sent people to secretly pass the news to the Sun Gate about this matter. The Sun Kingdom has suffered a great loss at the hands of Tang Wen and will definitely take revenge.
Especially the Sun Gate, many masters have died, and Tang Wen has long been a thorn in their side.
Once the Kingdom of the Sun attacks Qilin Island, I will assassinate him." Lin knew.
"You've solved this matter, so why are you looking for us?
You don't know, we are practicing the "Four Symbols Divine Skill" together. Once we master it, the four of us will be able to fight even if we encounter the Tong Nian Realm.
At that time, we can go back to that old guy ‘Tian Botong’ and get back what we lost to them back then.” Tie Lao said.
"I'm going to the Kingdom of the Sun recently to make a deal with the Sun Gate." Lin Zhi said.
"What deal?" Tie Lao snorted.
"Tang Wen is not easy to kill. According to reports from people we secretly planted in Liushan Hall, Tang Wen is protected by powerful men." Lin knew.
"How can a boy who is only eighteen years old hire a master to protect him?" Mr. Zhu said with disdain.
"In this world, money can help you reach the gods. It is reported that he is protected secretly by powerful people from the Juyuan Realm.
In addition, they have powerful fire guns in their hands, and are closely protected by a bodyguard of thirty people. Everyone in that bodyguard has a second-grade or above strength, and many of them have innate realms.
Coupled with the fact that he is a strong man in the Juyuan Realm, it will be difficult for me to kill him alone.
Therefore, we must cooperate with the Sun Gate and kill him during the battle on Qilin Island.
Of course, I still have concerns. On the battlefield, if I go to assassinate Tang Wen, if I don't have a deal with the Sun Gate in advance, I will be besieged by them as an enemy.
