64 Chapter.63 Consolidation and The Conferred Land!

After Tianlong and his army returned to Wuwei, they tended to the wounded while suppressing the bandits that roamed around.

Within a Mansion in a courtyard with a giant pond and many flowers and herbs, a man sat cross-legged as a goldish-purple glow hung around him.

Tianlong after returning immediately returned to a courtyard to achieve balance.

Within Tianlong's Dantian it sat loftily as it drew in qi and spirit within it as they slowly trembled and released tremors before returning to normal.

Tianlong saw his purple qi and golden spirit flow into his Dantian before he finally got a notification.

Kobe: [Host! Both qi and spirit have reached 50% anymore and host will go over!]

Tianlong heard Kobe and opened his Ruby blood eyes which had a goldish-purple haze which was faintly visible.

Tianlong: hahaha! I've reached the minor completion stage now I can focus on other matters!

Tianlong: Kobe! How long have we held Wuwei?

Kobe: [Host has held Wuwei for 3 weeks and must hold for another 2 months and 2 weeks.

Tianlong: mm! within these 2 months, we shall rebuild Wuwei for our intentions of staying!

After making his decision Tianlong walked out of the city lord mansion and headed for the city hall.

The Black Horse Army soldiers who were guarding all over Wuwei were surprised as they saw their general.

Soldiers: General!

Tianlong: mm no need send word for deputies Chen and Fu and captains Shi Jun and Lu Lingqi and sofficers

After that Tianlong walked into the city hall and waited.

Chen Zuren along with Fu Chen and the others and with a few civil officers walked into the city hall and saw an azure robed young man sitting.

Chen Zuren: hahaha! Amazing my lord! Even as a general you possess such a scholarly aura!

When the civil officers heard that the person giving such a huge scholarly aura was the fierce general that beat back the 53thousand in Wuwei.

Tianlong: hmph! I read books since little coupled with fathers training but is there even a need to say I won't possess a charm with such handsomeness!

Tianlong had a smile after he spoke his words which caused Shi Jun, Chen Zuren and Fu Chen to laugh aloud while Lu Lingqi snorted with a smile.

Tianlong: enough about this, I called you all here since we shall stay here for two months and recuperate while fixing the semi war-torn Wuwei province.

Tianlong: We shall erect another fort on the Tianshun border while we repair the farmland and crops while recovering the bandit torn countryside and the economy from it.

Chen Zuren: if its building forts I've built many in my lifetime of defensive and offensive battles! I say the crops and farmland should be handled by Fu Chen since they admire him.

Tianlong: mm! that's what I had in mind! Sister! You can take 3thousand Ferocious Demon Cavalry with another 2thousand cavalry same for Shi Jun with another 3thousand you two shall clear the bandit ravaged countryside!

Lu Lingqi: hmph you just want to send me away!

Shi Jun: yes, my lord!

Tianlong laughed at Lu Lingqi's reply as she walked away with Shi Jun.

After the two walked out Tianlong turned his gaze to the 5 civil officers and started speaking.

Tianlong: the reason I called for you five is to start the recovery of Wuwei's economy from the bandit's fierce raids destroying trade and income.

Tianlong: I want the reports of all trade goods our income sources and trade routes while slowly building at least 4 new building!

As Tianlong spoke his scholarly aura bared down while a little of his heroic aura leaked out merging with his other aura and brought the grace of a king for a moment.

When they saw the purplish-gold light around Tianlong they were surprised as it disappeared before they spoke.

Civil officers: Yes, city lord!

Tianlong nodded at their reply and brought the meeting to an end as they would need at least two days to gather everything.

After the meeting Tianlong took to the streets of Wuwei before he came to a shop with name Liuying medicinal Herbs and spiritual herb shop it was a little worn down but still in good quality.

After some thought Tianlong entered as the gazes of many young woman and even older woman followed Tianlong before he entered the shop.

Shop owner: welcome! Welcome! What does this young master look for?

Tianlong: owner do you have any herbs at the spiritual stage of comprehension?

When the shop owner heard Tianlong, he paused and thought before speaking, Yes young master! I have two comprehension herbs, but the price will be high.

Tianlong: you need not worry about price bring them out!

After some time, the owner came back with an ancient-looking box and a silver box that emitted spiritual aura.

Tianlong: how much?

The shop owner thought for a while before he spoke, 1700 sliver coins for these two and a free mysterious herb.

Tianlong: oh? You have such deals?

Shop owner: mm! indeed young master! Since the ancient era, my family roamed ancient China in search of herbs and used them to trade and became known for our specialty in northern china when someone purchased any spiritual items, they could get a free item.

Tianlong handed over 17 large coins as he got the two boxes, thanks, owner!

Shop owner: come again if you need anything young master!

Tianlong nodded as he headed out and back to his courtyard.

City lord mansion…

Within the city lord's courtyard, Tianlong sat as he looked at the three spiritual herbs in front of him.

Tianlong: Kobe! Is there anything with appraising herbs and knowledge of the types?

Kobe: [ I Found an appraising herb chip along with an herb encyclopedia host for 200 shop points!]

Tianlong: purchase both of them!

After a book and a chip appeared in Tianlong's hand and he swallowed the chip while he set the book aside.

Tianlong looked at the three herbs again before he spoke, Appraise!

[spiritual 500yr old Spear intent Lotus]

[ Desolate era ???? yr. old Qi and Spirit Fruit]

[Heavenly Martial Kings Blood-soaked Fruit seed]

Tianlong was shocked when he saw the words spear intent but what surprised him the most besides the Desolate era herb was the seed.

Tianlong: a seed? To have been soaked in a martial King's blood It must be for tempering!

Tianlong: Kobe! Can I grow this seed?

Kobe: Host [doesn't have enough resources and lacks an area plentiful of spiritual and qi in the air!]

Tianlong put the seed away after hearing Kobe before he picked up the Spear intent Lotus, on this road I walk my spear shall bare my path as it slaughters my enemies!

After saying that Tianlong started to swallow the whole lotus besides the seeds it left and started meditating.

Within Tianlong's soul, thousands of spears bearing different kinds of aura stood ready to pierce his soul, some had that of Buddhism, Kingship, Slaughter, and even Lightning.

Tianlong seeing this finally saw the experience of trying to comprehend any intent that he read in his time on earth.

Tianlong recalled what he said before meditating and gave a confident smile as he had started practicing his Boas Nine Savage Strikes.

Tianlong went through each form starting with Rushing Boas Curl, as he struck out his qi formed a serpent rushing towards a huge gate before coiling around and reached the top and gave a hiss before dissipating.

This went on for three hours as the boa in each move was evolving from being tempered from Tianlong and finally as he struck out all his qi emerged.

A giant snake with two horns, two small arms with claws and two medium-sized wings and flew towards the sky.

Tianlong opened his eyes and saw his qi form a flying serpent as it gave a roar and he muttered, Boas Jump Through the Gate!

Tianlong after going through all his moves finally created the 5th move of Boas Nine Savage Strikes.

Tianlong Saw that in his soul a small spear floated around his soul but had a very fierce intent for its size.

Tianlong: good! with this, I can start adding my intent to my moves! By now's not the time for that.

After Tianlong said that his hand reached out and grabbed the Qi and Spirit fruit which had a greenish-orange color.

Tianlong swallowed the fruit like the lotus and started to focus in his Dantian and circulated the Snake Lord's Yinyang Circulation.

Within Tianlong's Dantian his qi started circulating around his now 6 meridians as a small golden wisp followed after the purple Qi.

This continued for five hours where Tianlong's body was tempered from his qi and spirit while his spirit and qi formed a vortex in his Dantian which turned to a goldish-purple color before it charged to his Dantian slowly refining the previous qi and spirit left within.

Another hour passed and Tianlong awoke, when he opened his eyes the glowed with a purple golden color before it went away while his scholarly aura and heroic aura fused together from this new Qi and Spirt which Tianlong called true Qi.

Tianlong had broken through to the late second-class realm just one more realm from Third-class general…

After Tianlong's breakthrough he ordered for a Trade Market be built followed by another granary while also building an Auction house.

The days went by quickly as two months had passed and only two more weeks remained till Tianlong completed his mission while also preparing for more force to come down.

A messenger walked through the new streets of Wuwei and was amazed as he continued to the city hall.

The messenger arrived and entered but was stopped by the guards.

Guards: Stop! You cannot enter!

Messenger: I have a message for General Lu from Dunhuang!

When the guards heard that they let him through.

Tianlong with his officers and civil officers were discussing more building options to follow before they saw the messenger.

Tianlong: what message do you bring for me?

The messenger pulled out a scroll and opened It before speaking, General Lu Tianlong your exploits in capturing Wuwei with only 20thousand against 53thousand from these two battles the Nobles Council proposed by the Lord is that you shall become the governor of Wuwei and safeguard the south and shall have another 10thousand reinforcement for your use.

When the Civil officers heard the messenger, they finally knew that Tianlong was actually Lu Bu's son who made massive achievements in the war.

When Tianlong heard that he smiled as he recalled his father's words on his birthday, Long'er! Although father hasn't gotten you anything in the future you shall have your gift!

Tianlong: mm! send word back to Dunhuang that after all the wounded are healed, I march to help in the Northern battlefront where all the armies are heading!

After these two months the Lu Bu armies and Huang Dan armies clashed about 6 times with the battle of Wuwei being one, the decisive clash had soon arrived where a massive battle would take place to end this war in one move.

Tianlong had known that a massive battle was imminent as he awaited in Wuwei with his army recovering.

After the messenger left Tianlong had called his captains and deputies.

In a room, a giant map was on the table as war figurines were moved around on the board.

In the north 80 figurines stood in Xiliang province and Tianshi village while 60 were to the right of the 80 figures this was Tianlong's army.

Tianlong looked at his officers before speaking, While we are still recovering after we are at full strength we shall hit the enemy on its flank as they engage the northern armies of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

Chen Zuren: Are we splitting up in two units for better penetration?

Tianlong nodded and spoke, You shall lead 10thousand and strike the furthest right trying to close them in while another 10thousand for the left while the other 40thousand shall break through the center and deliver the killing blow to the enemies core.
