Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1624 - 1628: Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill
Qin Tian personally fed porridge to Du Qiuniang, which deeply moved her heart.
"Master, thank you," Du Qiuniang said.
Qin Tian smiled warmly and said, "Fool, I should be the one thanking you. Without you, Sister Bing would surely have already..."
"Right, I was clearly dead, how could I..." Fan Bing asked in confusion.
Qin Tian nodded and pursued further, "Qiuniang, what’s going on? I clearly saw that Sister Bing was beyond saving. How did you bring her back to life? And, there isn’t even a scar on her neck?"
"It was because of an Immortal Pill. The Nine Revival Soul Pill I acquired from the Demon Clan,"
Du Qiuniang explained, "This Nine Revival Soul Pill has the ability to awaken unconscious people. Combined with the bloodline and Qi Primordial Pill of our Phoenix Clan, it can revive the dead. Of course, it only works on those with no heavy injuries, who have just died within half an hour, and whose body temperature hasn’t fully dissipated yet."
Du Qiuniang looked at Sister Bing and said, "Luckily, when we arrived, Sister Bing’s body temperature was still there, so I hurriedly brought her inside this bedroom to perform the rescue. Fortunately, this was the first time I used the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill, and everything went smoothly."
After speaking, Du Qiuniang smiled gently.
Noticing Du Qiuniang’s haggard appearance, Qin Tian naturally knew it couldn’t be as simple as she described, and he asked, "Did you use your Primordial Pill to assist in the rescue? Did your Primordial Pill get damaged?"
The Primordial Pill is the foundation for immortality cultivation, and damage to the Lifebound Primordial Pill could even endanger one’s life!
Therefore, Qin Tian was very anxious.
Seeing Qin Tian’s worried expression, Du Qiuniang smiled with satisfaction and said, "Master, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s just a slight injury. Look at me, I’m perfectly fine now."
"You’re saying ’I’m fine’ yet you slept through the entire night and morning, and your face is pale."
Qin Tian said seriously, "Tell me, how badly are you affected? Don’t hide anything from me."
"Well... I was planning to break through the Peak of the Longevity Realm within three months, but now... it might take up to half a year without hope."
Du Qiuniang nodded, "Master, that’s alright, I’m not in a hurry to advance."
Qin Tian pursed his lips and said, "Qiuniang, stop calling me ’Master’, we’re all family now. Call me by my name."
"That won’t do," Du Qiuniang said seriously, "This is our Phoenix Clan’s custom, I cannot change it."
Qin Tian was speechless, not expecting this custom from the Phoenix Clan, and said, "How about this... call me ’Young Master’? I feel it’s much better than ’Master’. I think I mentioned it to you before, how could you forget after a few years..."
Du Qiuniang smiled faintly and said, "Oh, then I’ll call you Young Master... It’s great to see Young Master and Sister Bing again, Qiuniang is truly happy."
...
Two days later, Qin Tian’s main forces returned to East Capital City. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Customarily, the City Lord must personally welcome triumphant returning troops at the city gate.
Although Nangong Minghua was extremely reluctant, under the circumstances, he had no choice but to lead his subordinates to the city gate to welcome Zhou Yang and others.
Not only that, but he also had to host a banquet to entertain them with various forced smiles.
Zhou Yang and others were people Nangong Minghua hadn’t even heard of before, who seemed like nobodies in his eyes. Now, due to the Eastern State war, they became honored guests at his table, forcing Nangong Minghua to dine and drink with them, which infuriated him.
"You all better wait, when the Imperial City receives my report, hum, Qin Tian, let’s see if you can still laugh then!"
Nangong Minghua harbored deep hatred within, eagerly hoping for an imperial decree from the Imperial City to punish Qin Tian soon.
Five days later, the imperial decree arrived.
"...Governor of the City Guard Army, Qin Tian, with his singular prowess, repelled the Dragon Clan, performing extraordinary feats, bringing glory and honor to the Tianyuan Dynasty, which deeply gratifies me. With such talent, I wish to entrust significant responsibilities, appointing him as the East Gate Commander of the Imperial City and concurrently as the Second Grade Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War, to take up the post immediately!"
"The entire City Guard Army of East Capital City cooperated to be the primary contributors to breaking the Dragon Clan, appointing Zhao Lanjin as Vice Governor of the City Guard Army, acting as Governor temporarily; appointing Ye Kun as Governor of the City Guard Army; appointing Zuo Yuanhao as General of the City Guard Army. May all officials unite with one heart to create unprecedented meritorious service!"
The imperial decree from the Imperial City was all about rewarding the generals of the City Guard Army, leaving Nangong Minghua completely dumbfounded upon hearing it.
"This... how can this be? It’s impossible! Qin Tian exterminated Zhao Tuo’s entire clan of over three hundred people, how can there be no punishment at all from the Ice Emperor? Unthinkable!"
Nangong Minghua couldn’t believe it, but the subsequent letter from the Crown Prince’s strategist in the Imperial City finally made him understand.
It wasn’t that his report against Qin Tian was useless, but it was too late.
Qin Tian’s report reached the Ice Emperor before his!
And in Qin Tian’s report, he voluntarily confessed to exterminating Zhao Tuo’s entire clan, providing evidence that Zhao Tuo first attempted to eradicate his entire family.
As a result, the Ice Emperor didn’t bother with Nangong Minghua’s report, choosing to believe Qin Tian instead, issuing no punishment against him. Moreover, the Zhao Family’s anger in the Imperial City was completely quelled by the Ice Emperor.
The issue of Qin Tian slaughtering Zhao Tuo was unexpectedly resolved by Qin Tian so easily.
"This... this brat is too cunning!"
Nangong Minghua felt deeply aggrieved. After the Emperor’s decree, he felt even more like he had nothing left to hope for.
Although Qin Tian had resigned from his post as Governor of the City Guard Army of East Capital City, the Emperor surprisingly didn’t appoint anyone new but allowed Qin Tian’s trusted Zhao Lanjin to act as Governor, which made Nangong Minghua sense a looming danger.
He wrote to the Crown Prince in the Imperial City, who replied with a single line: "Father suspects, refrain from discussing it now, and temporarily lay low."
Upon seeing the Crown Prince’s reply, Nangong Minghua felt utterly defeated.
On Qin Tian’s side, things went just as he expected. Leveraging the enduring accomplishments from the Eastern State war, Qin Tian was successfully promoted, paving the way for his appointment in the Imperial City.
This marked his crucial first step, the outset and key milestone towards realizing his dreams.
Being the East Gate Commander in the Imperial City, although it sounded similar to the Governor of the City Guard Army of East Capital City, was indeed one level higher. It was a Second Grade official position established by the Tianyuan Dynasty. Given that the Imperial City was the political, military, and economic center of the Tianyuan Dynasty, even ten East Capital Cities couldn’t compare, making every official position highly esteemed.
Moreover, Qin Tian concurrently held the position of Second Grade Assistant Minister, signifying his formal entrance into the power core of the Tianyuan Dynasty’s court.
Although such a position wasn’t remarkable in the Imperial City, it laid the foundation for Qin Tian to advance further.
Staring at the sky, Qin Tian’s eyes revealed Murong Fei’s face, murmuring, "Murong, I’ve accomplished my anticipated goal. Imperial City, I’ve finally arrived!"
