Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1639 - 1643: Extra Course

Qin Tian finally emerged from the Royal Palace of Martial Arts.

Today he first went to the Imperial Palace, then to the Royal Palace of Martial Arts.

But in fact, the information he received from both places was the same, two words — loyalty!

The Ice Emperor said that the East Gate Commander was appointed against all odds by him personally, and Qin Tian should be grateful while in this position.

The Martial King said that the Second Grade Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War was appointed by him despite opposition, and Qin Tian should understand his good intentions and know to whom he should be loyal.

Loyalty doesn't mean loyalty to just one person.

Qin Tian learned this after today's meetings.

The Martial King actually harbors ambition!

Great ambition!

"Everyone says that the Crown Prince and the Ninth Prince are locked in an intense struggle, believing the next Emperor will surely be one of them. Haha."

"The Martial King is ambitious like a wolf, wielding great power; the Crown Prince and Ninth Prince may not be worthy opponents."

"Interesting, let them fight. I shall see who among them comes out on top!"

On his way home, Qin Tian thought carefully.

As for the matter of loyalty, he laughed it off.

The Ice Emperor and the Martial King were both his father's murderers, asking him to be loyal?

He had an unspoken vulgar term for them.

As for the Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince, both were naturally arrogant and incompetent; Qin Tian would never pledge loyalty to such people!

Therefore, he now decided to wait and see, keeping a low profile, offending no one, and observing secretly.

Although it was difficult, he had to try.

"For now, being loyal to both the Martial King and the Ice Emperor isn't conflicting, so I'll go along with it."

When he reached his doorstep, Qin Tian sighed, "My immediate priority should be to enhance my cultivation. Otherwise, with the impending bloody storm in the Imperial City, I might not even survive!"

...

Returning to the Qin residence in the Imperial City, Qin Tian stayed only briefly before hurrying to the East Gate of the Imperial City.

The Imperial City had four main gates: east, south, west, and north, each with two smaller gates. The smaller gates held troops fewer than ten thousand, while the main gates held ten to thirty thousand.

So, this was a position with real power in the Imperial City.

"Commander Qin, after much anticipation, you have finally arrived. I am Sun Wei, the first deputy commander at the East Gate, warmly welcoming Commander Qin's assumption of post!"

Inside the East Gate Commander's Mansion, when Qin Tian arrived with Zhou Yang and Lin Yu, the deputy commander Sun Wei, having heard the news, led a dozen officers to welcome the three of them.

The leading person was Sun Wei, and beside him was He Mingdong; both were deputies under Qin Tian's command as the East Gate Commander, essentially Qin Tian's "right and left arms."

However, upon seeing them, and the dozen officers behind them, Qin Tian did not trust any of them in his heart.

The complex situation in the Imperial City was already apparent to Qin Tian.

Undoubtedly, these individuals likely had backers, overtly or covertly.

Qin Tian held a military meeting at the East Gate Commander's Mansion, introducing Zhou Yang and Lin Yu (Xiao Zhuang was Qin Tian's private intelligence officer and Qin Tian didn't want too many people to know about him), and then gave a perfunctory opening speech, summed up in one sentence: I'm here, everything as usual, carry on, sorry to disturb.

Then, Qin Tian immediately appointed Zhou Yang as the strategist of the Commander's Mansion, and Lin Yu as the commander of the mansion.

These appointments were within Qin Tian's authority, as both Zhou Yang and Lin Yu had previously held positions in East Capital City that qualified them for these roles.

Zhou Yang had decision-making power at the East Gate Commander's Mansion without military command, while Lin Yu, as a commander, only had command over one thousand troops within the Imperial City.

This was Qin Tian's maximum effort; there were no vacancies in other positions with military command.

Of course, Qin Tian's appointments of Zhou Yang and Lin Yu also had to be discussed with the two deputy commanders.

"These two are trusted by the commander and absolutely reliable. I agree."

"I agree as well. Both Strategist Zhou and Commander Lin have followed Commander Qin to the East State battlefield. Their capabilities are undeniable."

Sun Wei and He Mingdong had no objections to Qin Tian's appointments. These sly individuals, on the first day, gave Qin Tian full respect.

In the days that followed, Qin Tian left the matters of the East Gate Commander's Mansion to Zhou Yang and Lin Yu to familiarize themselves with.

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhuang continued to manage intelligence work, focusing on gradually transplanting the East State's intelligence network to the Imperial City.

Qin Tian was happy to relax and focused on Cultivation Immortality.

For half a month, Qin Tian remained indoors almost all the time, studying the secrets of Dual Cultivation with Du Qiuniang every day, then integrating the immensely beneficial energy from Dual Cultivation.

It must be said, the Phoenix Clan's tradition of Dual Cultivation was exceptionally effective.

Each time he practiced with Du Qiuniang, Qin Tian felt his power advance, his Dan Tian Qi Sea becoming fuller and more potent.

On this day, after a third round of intense practice with Du Qiuniang, Qin Tian advanced!

As he fell into a deep sleep holding Du Qiuniang, he suddenly seemed to hear a strange roar from within his Dantian, and he instinctively opened his eyes!

Feeling the warm, strange movement in his Dan Tian Qi Sea, Qin Tian guessed that his cultivation had changed, and upon careful sensing, indeed, he had entered the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm!

"Wow, half a year... in half a year, I've directly advanced from the Middle to the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm! This, this... it's all thanks to Qiuniang."

Excited, Qin Tian looked at the naked Du Qiuniang lying beside him with squinting eyes, feeling a warm current through his body, and a mischievous thought arose...

Qin Tian lay behind the side-lying Du Qiuniang, their bodies pressed closely together...

"Oh..."

Feeling violated below, Du Qiuniang, startled in her sleep, turned to see Qin Tian misbehaving behind her. Her face turned rosy, "Master, you, you attacked me... you're so naughty..."

Qin Tian chuckled, "I'm not attacking you, I'm rewarding you. Hehe, Qiuniang, thanks to our Dual Cultivation, I've advanced and now reached the Late Stage of the Longevity Realm!"

"Really? Congratulations, Master!"

Delighted, Du Qiuniang turned and wrapped her arms around Qin Tian's neck, giving him a kiss.

Qin Tian, body and mind relaxed, said, "Since Dual Cultivation is so effective, shall we continue? How about more?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Master, it's already past midnight, this is the third time tonight—do you still want more?"

Du Qiuniang, somewhat surprised, looked at Qin Tian, thinking, Master, can you go on? How are you so powerful...

Qin Tian laughed lightly, "With my cultivation level advanced, I'm happy today, shall we have an extra course?"

"Extra course..."

Hearing Qin Tian's metaphor, Du Qiuniang blushed deeply, giving Qin Tian a shy glance, "Qiuniang follows your command in everything..."
