As soon as the battle had ended, Jianchen bid farewell to everyone before hurrying back to the Kingdom of Gesun with Nubis and the sleeping White Tiger.
This time, he had originally wanted to go back alone, without bringing anyone with him, but he had to change his mind when he considered Nubis. Nubis was a magical beast, so he possessed some of the savagery of magical beasts. He was not as docile as Jiede Tai, so he did not dare to leave a Golden-striped Silver Snake like Nubis, who could lose his temper at any time. If something were to happen, the consequences would be severe.
Jianchen and Nubis flew through the air at an extremely fast speed. Nubis could not help but say, "Jianchen, I never thought that you would actually be related to an expert like the grand elder of Mercenary City. You've really surprised me. As long as the grand elder of Mercenary City stands behind you, I can guarantee that no one on the Tian Yuan Continent will dare to bully you." With that, Nubis's gaze suddenly landed on the White Tiger in Jianchen's arms. His face immediately changed as he said sternly, "Every single grand elder of Mercenary City is a person of great power and knowledge. Jianchen, you haven't told him about the Winged Tiger, have you?"
"Senior Tian Jian already knows about the Winged Tiger," said Jianchen.
"What? He already knows?" Nubis's face changed. He said with a heavy voice, "This is bad. The Winged Tiger is still in its infancy, so it's the best time to tame it. With how greedy you humans are, those peak experts will definitely try to steal it because once the Winged Tiger grows up, it will become an extremely powerful force. No one will be able to stand up to it in this world unless you humans give birth to another supreme expert like Mo Tianyun."
Jianchen nodded, "I know about that as well, but don't worry. It's not as bad as you imagine it to be. Senior Tian Jian and the second and fourth elders of Mercenary City already know about the Winged Tiger, but they don't plan on stealing it. Instead, they've gifted a large number of heavenly resources to the Winged Tiger."
"Really?" Nubis was rather doubtful, "That's strange. Why would Mercenary City do something like that? It's impossible for them to not know how terrifying the Winged Tiger is. With their strength, why don't they directly kill the Winged Tiger or steal it and tame it? If they allow the Winged Tiger to grow up, it will become an extremely great threat to the entire continent."
"It's said that the reason why they're doing this is because the greatest expert of the past, Mo Tianyun, ordered them to do so. It's also the first rule of the elders," said Jianchen.
"Mo Tianyun ordered it?" Nubis became even more doubtful. He murmured, "Does the greatest human expert Mo Tianyun have some sort of relationship with the Winged Tiger of the magical beasts? But the information passed down doesn't seem to mention anything about Mo Tianyun having any sort of relationship with the Winged Tiger. "
"I don't know about that, but far too much time has passed since then. The information passed down back then is probably incomplete, and it's impossible for everything to have been passed down. Maybe there's something we don't know," Jianchen said after some thought.
Nubis nodded in agreement, "That's true."
Afterwards, Jianchen and Nubis chatted as they traveled. With their speed, they crossed over a hundred thousand kilometers in a single day and returned to the Kingdom of Gesun.
After entering the Kingdom of Gesun, Jianchen and Nubis didn't stop at all. They rushed straight to Lore City and soon arrived. From afar, they could see the elite troops of the Qin Empire's Eastern Sword Legion stationed outside the city.
"That should be the army of the Qin Empire. I didn't expect the Qin Empire to send so many soldiers here. They're really rich and imposing. No wonder they're one of the Eight Great Powers," Nubis couldn't help but comment when he saw the Eastern Sword Legion.
In response, Jianchen only smiled and didn't say anything. He then flew directly into Changyang Prefecture with Nubis. They didn't go through the main entrance.
Because Jianchen didn't hide his presence, the Heaven Saint Masters of Changyang Prefecture sensed him as soon as he arrived. Immediately, four powerful presences appeared from Changyang Prefecture. Four figures flashed and four Heaven Saint Masters appeared around Jianchen and Nubis.
These four Heaven Saint Masters were the caretaker of Changyang Prefecture, Chang Bo, Qin Wuming, Qin Wujian, and Qin Wutian.
Seeing how aggressive Chang Bo and the other three were, Nubis's expression turned cold. A cold light flashed through his eyes. With his pride as a Class 7 Magical Beast, how could he endure the insolence of Heaven Saint Masters who were as weak as ants in his eyes?
Sensing Nubis's strange behavior, Jianchen's heart tightened. He hurriedly pressed his hand on his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Nubis, this is my home. Don't mess around."
Nubis's expression immediately eased up. He glanced at Chang Bo, Qin Wuming, and Qin Wuming with disdain. He then said to Jianchen with dissatisfaction, "This is the great Nubis. Why do you always forget?"
Jianchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "Fine, fine, fine. Great Nubis, don't mess around here. This is my home."
"I know. But you better tell these kids to behave themselves. Don't be so arrogant in front of the great Nubis," Nubis lazily said.
Without needing Nubis to say anything, Qin Wujian, Qin Wuming, and Chang Bo had already restrained their presence. This was because they had already recognized that the person who had come was Jianchen.
"So the fourth young master has returned."
"Greetings to the Imperial Protector, sir!"
Chang Bo, Qin Wuming, and Qin Wuming all reacted differently. Chang Bo smiled, while his gaze toward Jianchen was filled with joy and excitement. Qin Wuming, Qin Wuming, and Qin Wuming all clasped their hands at him politely. They were even more respectful than before.
A few days ago, the captain of the Flame Mercenaries had fought a Saint Ruler of the Sect of Dragon and Tiger. In the end, the Flame Mercenaries had even sent out three Saint Rulers to heavily injure the Saint Ruler of the Sect of Dragon and Tiger, causing him to flee. This matter had caused a great uproar, so basically everyone knew that the captain of the Flame Mercenaries, Jianchen, was already a Saint Ruler. Even Chang Bo, Qin Wujian, and the others who were over a hundred thousand kilometers away received the news. They all knew that the fourth young master of the Changyang Prefecture was already a Saint Ruler.
"Fourth young master, I'll go inform the patriarch and madam right now. The patriarch and madam have been thinking about you every day. I hope you can return sooner," Chang Bo was clearly extremely emotional. He turned around and left with that.
"There's no need, Chang Bo. I'll go find my mother personally. I'll go see my father later," Jianchen said.
"Alright, alright. I'll go prepare a banquet to welcome the fourth young master back." Chang Bo retreated with the tips of his feet. Although he seemed old, he was no slower than a young man in his twenties or thirties.
"Qin Wujian, Qin Wuming, Qin Wuming, you all go rest first. I'll go deal with some matters first," Jianchen said.
"Yes, sir Imperial Protector," Qin Wuming, Qin Wuming, and Qin Wuming all politely replied before retreating at the same time.
