The truth was that the military and cultivators of the prefectural city were indeed weaker than them.
"Young Master Song, Sect Master Chen, General Shen, are you all here?" The general who led them was a burly man with a full beard — he was Zhang Liang, envoy of the Spirit Province. Amongst all the officials in the Spirit Province, the group training had an extremely high status, and was one of the top three in the army.
"General Zhang."
Upon seeing Zhang Liang, Cheng Qing, Song Qianshu, Shen Bei Wang, and the rest all stood up to greet him. Even though Song Qianshu was the leader of a family, he still didn't care about his status in front of Zhang Liang.
"All of you are geniuses of the empire, there's no need to be so polite. I've come here just to drink with all of you and celebrate this great army victory." Zhang Liang smiled kindly. Because of his boorish appearance, the kind smile that came from the bottom of his heart made him seem more amiable than an ordinary person.
While he was speaking, some of the generals poured wine into bowls in Zhang Liang's hands. He said to Cheng Qing and Song Qianshu sincerely: "For the army to be able to take down Sun Moon City so quickly, the achievements of Song Feng and Heng Chong Army is truly amazing, especially when they were taking down West Three Urns City. It's only been half an hour, what a miracle. And because of this, the Uighur Commander was unable to react in time and was unable to mobilize his men to assist them.
"General, you're too kind."
Everyone drank a bowl together. Shen Beiwang tactfully brought the Spirit Martial County's general area to a place where Zhang Liang and the others could sit next to Cheng Qing and Song Qianshu.
After Zhang Liang sat down, he cordially said to Song Qianshu: "For the sake of winning the army, Master Song did not hesitate to risk his life to penetrate the enemy lines. The cultivators of Song Zheng did not care about the casualties in order to disrupt the enemy lines' deployment. Such courage and loyalty are truly admirable!"
As he spoke, he began toasting again.
In order to alleviate the guilt in his heart, he placed down the wine bowl and pulled Cheng Qing along as he introduced him to Zhang Liang, "This is Sect Master Chen of the An Tian Sect. He is also Xiao Ke's brother in life and death. "In the end, it was Brother Chen who led the cultivators of the An Tian Sect and turned the tide in the bloody battle when the Uighur Army counterattacked. That was the only way for us to achieve the greatest success in the Western Weng City!"
"Oh? Is that so? " Zhang Liang looked at Cheng Qing in surprise. Seeing how serious Song Qianshu was, he did not express any suspicions. He raised his wine bowl and said: "Sect Master Chen is so young, I did not expect you to be so wise. I admire you!"
Chen Qing smiled. "No." It's all because of Brother Song's overpraise. "
Zhang Liang still believed Cheng Qing's words. After all, everyone knew that the An Tian Sect was just a martial arts faction recruited by Song Qianshu. Furthermore, he had never heard of the Tranquil Sky Sect before, so he didn't think that they were very powerful.
In Zhang Liang's imagination, the reason why Song Qianshu pushed the credit to Chen Qing and the An Tian Sect was only to give them a share of the spoils. At the end of the day, Song Qianshu was just cultivating his own influence in the martial arts world.
Cultivating the martial arts world's forces, many of the families like to do this, because many of the disciples from the martial arts families do not want to step in and do this for the martial arts world's forces.
"Here, I offer another bowl to Young Master Song!" Zhang Liang raised his wine bowl again. This time, he was going to directly toast Song Qianshu.
