"Of course I know, I just want to confirm it. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I need to start practicing."

"I'm afraid you can't practice anymore. Is there someone waiting for you at the door?"

Xiaota reminded.

Hearing Xiaota's words, Zhang Chentian appeared in the house on a whim, opened the door and said apologetically:

"Sorry, I was practicing just now and kept you waiting."

"It's okay, I just got here too!"

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Ning Yuchen. I'm here this time because I want you to come with me. My father has something he wants to tell you."

Ning Yuchen looked at Zhang Chentian and said with a smile.

"Your father?" Zhang Chentian looked at the elegant young man in front of him and asked doubtfully.

He looked at the other person, trying to find some clues from him, but apart from his gorgeous clothes and the jade pendant hanging around his waist, he didn't find anything special.

Looking at Zhang Chentian's expression, Ning Yuchen finally reacted and quickly explained:

"I'm sorry, I forgot this is the first time we meet. My father is the Marquis of Yongchang. I came here this time at my father's request to invite you to my house for a chat."

Hearing this, Zhang Chentian suddenly understood. It turned out that this young man was actually the son of the Marquis of Yongchang. No wonder he had such an extraordinary demeanor.

Hearing this, Zhang Chentian bowed to Ning Yuchen and said respectfully:

"So it's the Prince of Yongchang. Chentian, I apologize for the inconvenience. Since the Marquis is looking for me, let's set off immediately."

Then, Ning Yuchen led Zhang Chentian to a military tent. When they entered the tent, Zhang Chentian saluted Ning Chuanshui who was sitting on the seat:

"Chentian meets Lord Ning."

Ning Chuanshui burst into laughter, stood up, walked quickly to Zhang Chentian, patted his shoulder enthusiastically and said:

"Hahaha, Chentian, don't be so polite. You have performed a great deed this time! If you hadn't appeared in time and discovered the enemy's conspiracy, our army would have suffered heavy losses."

Faced with such praise, Zhang Chentian simply replied modestly:

"As a member of the dynasty, this is what I should do." His voice was calm and firm, revealing a deep understanding of responsibility and mission.

"Well said! Come on, don't stand anymore, sit down and talk." Ning Chuanshui smiled and gestured for Zhang Chentian to take a seat.

Zhang Chentian bowed slightly to express his gratitude, then sat down.

"Yuchen, go bring Ning Dongbo here to apologize to Chentian!"

Ning Chuanshui turned to look at Ning Yuchen and gave orders in a serious tone.

"Yes, father!"

Ning Yuchen replied immediately and stood up and walked out of the tent.

"My Lord, what are you doing?"

Zhang Chentian looked at Ning Chuanshui in surprise. He had never expected such a development. A hint of confusion and uneasiness appeared on his face.

"Hey~ Chentian, don't worry about it for now. I already know about the conflict between Ning Dongbo and your Zhang family."

"Everyone else in the Zhang family has already apologized, so you can't be left out."

Ning Chuanshui looked at Zhang Chentian and said, his eyes full of sincerity and apology.

Just then, Ning Yuchen walked in with Ning Dongbo, who was covered in scars.

Ning Dongbo's face was pale, and his body was covered with bruises and wounds. It was obvious that he had been severely punished.

"I'm sorry, Zhang Chentian, I was wrong. I shouldn't have provoked your Zhang family. I'm sorry, please forgive me..."

Ning Dongbo limped to Zhang Chentian and said while fanning himself.

Every word was filled with deep regret and self-blame, and there was even a hint of crying in the voice.

"Stop first and talk it over nicely if you have anything to say."

After hearing Zhang Chentian's words, Ning Dongbo did not stop what he was doing.

"Hey~ I can forgive you, after all, you didn't cause any harm to us,

"But I still hope that you won't use your status to bully other soldiers in the future. After all, they all came here from afar to protect the country."

Hearing Zhang Chentian's words, Ning Dongbo immediately stopped what he was doing and said firmly:

"Don't worry, I will change my ways from now on and won't bully others anymore."

"Ah, I hope so."

Zhang Chentian looked at Ning Dongbo and said.

"Okay, since Chen Tian has forgiven you, you can go away now."

Ning Chuanshui said in a cold tone.

Hearing this, Ning Dongbo ran out of the tent quickly.

"Alas, this is also my fault. If I had disciplined him strictly, he wouldn't have behaved so recklessly in the barracks."

Ning Chuanshui sighed and said.

"This is not the Marquis' fault. Besides, after this lesson, I think he won't dare to do it again."

"Well, let's not talk about him anymore. Chentian, can you tell me how you met Princess Yonglin?"

"It's Xia Aoxue, right? After I discovered the news about the formation, I thought it was still early, so I went to the Frost Realm in the Barbarian Territory to practice."

"Then I happened to see Aoxue being hunted, so I chose to help her. Because I have ice elemental martial bones and practice ice-attributed skills, I have a slight advantage in that area..."

Zhang Chentian roughly recounted his experiences in the Frosty Realm. Of course, there were some truths and some lies in it. As for what Ning Chuanshui thought, that was not his concern.

"I see. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise Princess Yonglin would be in danger."

"But you saved the king's favorite princess this time and performed two great deeds on the border. The king will surely reward you greatly."

After listening to Zhang Chentian's words, Ning Chuanshui looked at Zhang Chentian and said with a smile.

"Yes, I think he should be made a viscount at least."

Ning Yuchen, who was sitting nearby, also said with a smile.

"My Lord, Prince, you must be joking. How can the title of Viscount be obtained so easily? With all my achievements, it's simply impossible."

Zhang Chentian said modestly.

"Haha, Chentian, you don't know something. Do you know what the titles of the Five Heroes of the Dynasty are?"

Ning Chuanshui chuckled and said.

"do not know!"

"They are all viscounts, and two of them have not made any contributions to the dynasty."

"Why is this?"

In response to Zhang Chentian's question, Ning Chuanshui explained:

"Because they are geniuses. They all have the hope of breaking through the spiritual realm in the future. So if the dynasty wants to win him over, they will also win you over."

"That's why Yuchen said you are at least a viscount."

"I see."

After hearing Ning Chuanshui's words, Zhang Chentian suddenly realized and said:

"I didn't expect there was such a reason behind this." He nodded thoughtfully.

Ning Chuanshui looked at Zhang Chentian and continued:

"Okay, let's stop here for today. In a couple of days, when the formation master I hired comes, we'll go take back the territory that belongs to us."

His tone was firm and confident.

Zhang Chentian stood up and bowed respectfully to Ning Chuanshui and Ning Yuchen.

"Yes, Chentian will take his leave."

Then he turned and walked out of the tent with steady and powerful steps.

With Zhang Chentian's departure, only Ning Chuanshui and Ning Yuchen were left in the tent.
