Chapter 33 - Dao Shou
Most of the time, Changan city looked extremely bustling. However, a huge portion of it was concentrated on only a selected few areas. In some other dark areas, there were some obscure and undistinguished things that prominent figures were unwilling to talk about.
The pier was at the south of the city. The Grand Canal stretches from Changan city to Jiangnan. This area was only tranquil at night. After sunset, the moment the city gate was shut, unless there was an imperial decree, nobody had the authority to open it at night.
If the merchants arrived after the sky turned dark, all they could do was wait. However, they did not have to worry about their goods getting stolen. As long as they placed a red Liu Yun flag on it on their ships once they arrived at the pier, nobody would dare to create any trouble.
Regardless of whether it was by land or water, anybody who carried the flag would absolutely be safe. This was Liu Yun Hui’s power.

Eternal Empire Chapter 36 - Bribe You
A Yanta Academy student from a rather influential family had died, and a powerful triad had been eradicated in an area where ordinary folks of Changan city could not see. If the imperial court and triads formed a vast body of water, the splash created by these two events were in fact not big at all. The chief constable of Changan made a single trip to Yanta Academy and decided to thoroughly give up pursuing the matter. In his words, he was only but a low-ranking official. The pressure created by this case fell upon the magistrate - not him. There were all kinds of commotion going on within the academy. It was not that difficult to investigate this matter. After all, it was one that implicated a second-in-command official, who was a Class B Fourth pin official. He might not be a big figure, but he was not considered small either. In any case, the Ministry of War had to stick up for its people. Of course, it was nothing more than a mere formality.

Even though Zhuang Yong said that Shen Leng could only pick two out of ten people in his squad, in reality, it was three. Apart from Shen Leng’s squad, Du Weiming had no other choice.

Ten-man squads were made up of two five-man squads. Apart from Shen Leng, there was another signaller.Shen Leng appointed Wang Kuohai and Du Weiming as the two leaders of the two five-man squads. He appointed Chen Ran as the signaller.

Lastly, he was also in charge of communicating with the rest of the squad.Ten ten-man squads formed a battalion, and three battalions formed a regiment. The leader of the battalion wa
Eternal Empire Chapter 38 - Gratitude
The mountain that Mr. Shen and Master Cha were at was called Mount Xiao Feng - it was one of the more unremarkable mountains within the endless mountain range near the river bank. There was a town not far from the mountain. Apart from the Daoist temple that Mr. Shen and Master Cha resided in, there were some hunters who appeared every now and then to check if there were any wild animals caught in the traps they had set up before. At lunch, Master Cha rested her chin on one hand and knocked against the stone table with her chopsticks with the other hand. Mr. Shen came out from the kitchen covered with dirt, holding a plate of something that was black in color. “Quick, have a taste.”Master Cha looked at it and wanted to throw up.Mr. Shen was somewhat disappointed. “Guess some things are truly innate talents.”Master Cha pointed at the dish and asked, “Didn’t you say you want to cook some beef for me? Did you go through great pains
Eternal Empire Chapter 39 - Look For an Opportunity
For six to seven days in a row, Shen Leng conducted high intensity training for the new recruits. All eleven men were of different physiques and had varying degrees of willpower. Even Du Weiming and Wang Kuohai felt as though they were about to reach their limit. According to some sources, in three days, they would have to enter the battlefield. Some people were anxious, and some people were disapproving of it.Just as always, Shen Leng put his men through the additional training session into the night before allowing them to rest. He returned to the drill ground alone and completed the homework he did back in the Daoist temple meticulously. By the time he completed it, it was already after 1 a.m.. When he was about to go back to the barracks, he saw Zhuang Yong standing under the light, waiting for him. Shen Leng hurried over to him and saluted. “Come with me.”Zhuang Yong walked in front. Shen Leng walked sligh
Eternal Empire Chapter 40 - Impossible
The time period between receiving the news of the field exercise and heading out flew past fairly fast. Shen Leng knew that the harsh trainings that he forced his men to go through were not sufficient, but he hoped that his men were able to at least guard their lives in the face of danger.Last month, the total number of new recruits who had passed the evaluation was less than three hundred. The battalion commander, Wang Gendong was in charge of leading the troops. This was a very simple mission. The water bandits they were ambushing was Zhao Dengke and his men that were located upstream. According to the intelligence reported back by the scouting team, they had only a hundred odd people. They were hiding in one of the waterways of Nanping River, and plunder passing merchant ships from time to time in the middle of the night.Three Xiong Niu battleships had headed upstream towards their camp. The Xiong Niu battleship was a medium-sized battleship of the Nav
Eternal Empire Chapter 41 - This Was What He Wanted
Shen Leng had a frightening grasp of time. Most of the soldiers did not notice it, but Du Weiming and Wang Kuohai did. Before nightfall, they had arrived outside a town named Fu Chou Bao. They could see the smoke rising from the chimneys in that town. Shen Leng got them to stand guard before they took off their equipment to rest. All of the soldiers heaved a sigh of relief. They carried the load and trekked for more than nine miles. Everyone was almost at their limit. “Squad leader.”Du Weiming leaned in and said in a low voice, “If we keep walking at this pace, we will only reach the water bandits’ camp the day after tomorrow. That’s too slow…If Battalion Commander Wang were to use this as a reason to punish us, there is nothing we can say to refute it. The items we’re carrying are too heavy, should we lighten the load?”“No.”Shen Leng did not hesitate in his reply. “I feel that we did not bring enough. If not for
