uliang, they both save time for them. They come straight to the point and leave after finishing, without wasting a word.All in all, it was a "fulfilling" five days.Back at Xiashan Biefu, before I coul...Lu Cunyong was indeed bold, daring to cane Marquis Wuan's buttocks!

The five ancient punishments ("ink," "mutilation of the nose," "cutting off," "banishment," and "death penalty") served as legitimate punishments under the Legalist school and have persisted for a long time.

After the rise of a national system of governance, the Legalist school underwent significant changes and developed a new five-tiered punishment system consisting of "whipping, beatings, imprisonment, exile, and death," which was widely accepted by various countries across the land.

The rod is a relatively common form of punishment. It is even more common in the military.

According to the military law of Daqi, the executioner's staff was divided into three types: "reprimand", "punishment", and "penalty". All were six feet long, with a large head circumference of one and three-quarters inches and a small head circumference of eight and a half.

The three different staffs differ completely in the patterns on their bodies. The staff of discipline is the lightest, with only added weight to its body.

Next comes corporal punishment, which inflicts pain on the body in addition to its weight. The most severe form of punishment is flogging, which encompasses both physical and spiritual torment.

Jiang Wang's failure to meet the deadline was not a one-time occurrence. Besides being objectively out of position in the bewildering realm, there was also the subjective act of pursuing and killing Yu Guangyuan. While it was a feat that shook the bewildering realm, it undeniably violated military discipline.

He didn't treat military orders as a joke, nor did he completely disregard them. Generally speaking, corporal punishment involved hitting the back, buttocks, or legs.

>

Among them, hitting the buttocks is the lightest and least likely to cause serious problems. Hitting the legs with a stick is easy to disable. Hitting the spine with a stick often results in death. Luo Cunyong held a cane in his hand, and the target area was the buttocks. It could be said that it was the lightest form of corporal punishment. It was also common practice to remove clothes before receiving a beating.

But the problem is, what kind of status does Jiang Wang have today To be publicly humiliated and punished with a cane is more humiliating than any punishment!

Therefore, as soon as Luo Cunyong uttered these words, Fang Yuyou immediately drew his sword and struck! As the saying goes, "One who insults their master must die."

If anyone insults the Marquis of Wu'an, this commander of the Marquis' personal guard should commit suicide if he is unable to kill them!

But speaking of which, Luo Cunyong being able to become a flag soldier and a respected member of the Er Lao in the army, able to represent Qi Xiao's will and execute military law on Ding Mao Island, must have his own courage and sense of duty.

Facing Yuan You's sudden and vicious attack, he held his two staffs firmly, standing behind Marquis Wu An. He didn't dodge or even utter a word.

Fang Yuyou's saber was stopped just before Luo Cunyong's neck.

Jiang Wang stood shirtless, gripping the blade's edge with one hand. His voice boomed like thunder, "Military law is a serious matter, how dare you trifle with it" His features were usually refined and gentle, leading many to believe he lacked authority.

But with his bare chest exposed, his temperament was completely different. He didn't have that particularly muscular physique, but every detail of his naked body was tempered by blood and fire, chiseled by war and strife.

Those lines were as sharp as blades, like sword cuts.

That overwhelming sense of power, that imposing feeling like a towering mountain, left everyone speechless.

Ding Mao's first floating island garrison commander, Kuang Hui Ping, sat in his position, pressing his knees with both hands, but he couldn't stop his trembling knees.

Who said Marquis Wu'an was too lenient When he gets angry, he's terrifying!

He really wanted to stand up and "say a few words" to ease the tense situation, but he just couldn't bring himself to speak!

But hearing Jiang Wang continue, "Today, the law does not fall on me, Jiang Wang. In the future, when I, Jiang Wang, command the army, how can I punish others If military law is easily changed for me, Jiang Wang, what are you talking about being unyielding What are you talking about being like a mountain What's the point of it being empty words!"

Marquis Wu'an casually flung Fang Yuyou, along with his sword, out of the tent. "Get out and guard the door! You are not allowed to come in again!"

He patted Luo Cunyong's shoulder again: "You can use a cane to hit his back, you can hit his buttocks, or even his head! According to military law, anything goes! You just do your duty. Don't worry about any problems. The laws of the world won't punish someone who follows the rules, will they"

Having said that, he turned around and grabbed a stool. He threw himself onto it and said, "Come on, hit me!"

Luo Cunyong was known for his courage, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to do this—asking the Lord to bare his buttocks. But at this moment, holding the staff of admonition, his hand trembled, and his heart pounded like a drum!

Jiang Wang lay on his stomach, shirtless, perched on a stool and muttered in a low voice, "Don't tell me I have to take off my pants too"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Luo Cunyong was startled and almost dropped his staff. He scrambled to catch it, shaking his head in panic: "No, no, no! My lord is too honorable, there's no need to take off your clothes!"

Jiang Wang then uttered a light cry: "Come at me! Not one stick less!"

At this moment, all the generals in the tent are paying attention.

Luo Cunyong let out a yell of "Ah!" and brought the cane down with force! Bang! Bang! Bang!

"One!" "Two!" "Three!"... Lu Cunyong was almost shouting as he counted.

All the generals in the tent held their breath.

Being punished naked is an insulting act, especially for nobles. For example, Jiang Wuqidi knelt outside the Zijing Hall naked, holding a jade pendant.

As for the prime minister of the State of Zhuang, Du Ruhui, he was publicly flogged while nude on Yu Jing Mountain.

Today, Marquis Wuan was stripped naked and sprawled on a stool, his back, buttocks, and legs all bearing the marks of the cane. It was a deeply humiliating affair. However, within the general's tent, each of the generals present silently rose to their feet, kneeling half-way down, performing the military salute.

They seemed not to be watching the Duke of Wuan being punished, but rather to be honoring him for his achievements.

If they had previously revered Marquis Wu'an for his status and reputation, at this moment they revered him as a true soldier.

Respecting military law also means respecting the soldiers who uphold it.

For Ginger Wang today, this scene could have been completely avoided. What's a piece of wood A single finger can bend it.

What is Luo Cunyong A single "roll" character is enough to send him back to Jue Ming Island. Jiang Wang is determined not to accept this punishment today, no one can force him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even without Qixi Xiao's presence, who among the entire army of the Mi realm could truly suppress Jiang Wang With Qixi Xiao absent, Jiang Wang could completely overturn this disciplinary order. But a wooden stick as a staff represents military law.

Luo Cunyong as a flag bearer, represents the commander's order.

Jiang Wang asked himself that he was not as intelligent as Chong Xuan and his military tactics were inferior to Li Longchuan's. The art of war was profound and unfathomable. He had only begun to learn about it in recent years and knew he was far from being a master strategist or a military genius. He might never be able to make any brilliant achievements in the art of war.

But he absolutely didn't want to undermine morale and set a bad example for the entire army. Qi Xiao's refusal wasn't out of personal preference, but rather a choice offered to Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang made a choice.

When Luo Cunyong gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, he beat one stick after another. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The generals surrounding him rushed forward, each kneeling as they stripped and donned the armor for Marquis Wu'an. In an instant, he was covered in seven or eight different layers of clothing, a colorful mess. Luo Cunyong immediately threw down his staff and knelt on the ground, repeatedly striking his head: "This subordinate deserves death! It is my fault that this has caused you, My Lord Marquis, such embarrassment!" Jiang Wang rose from his stool and looked down at himself, smiling, "It is a bit embarrassing!"

He bent down and helped Lu Cunyong to his feet. He looked at the generals in the tent, pondering for a moment before saying, "But is it more humiliating to be flogged naked, or to trample military law while wielding the status of a marquis and escaping military punishment Which deserves greater shame"

He gathered those mottled and discolored outer garments in his arms, and walked toward the central seat. His voice echoed through the hall: "I believe it is the latter. What do you all think"

Kuang Huiping knelt down first: "Your Excellency, the flag indicates your order. This general will die without hesitation!"

Tu Liangcai also bowed and said, "The last general is willing to be the vanguard for my lord. I will go even through a mountain of knives or a sea of fire. I will obey your orders without question, and have no regrets even in death!" For a moment, all the people in the tent bowed their heads in response.

Jiang Wang, after returning to his seat from paying respects, sat down quietly and watched the scene before him, sighing: "The stories of chasing the wind are a true lesson for me!" All the generals immediately became respectful.

This sentence is an idiom.

In the past, when Emperor Wu was in power, he took Consort Mu for a stroll outside the city walls to enjoy the spring scenery. By chance, they saw Hou of Cui attacking with his army, and Emperor Wu felt interested. He then rode horseback with Consort Mu to inspect the camp.

There is a military order that after sunset, horses are not allowed to run wild in the camp. There is also a military order that no one is allowed to enter the camp without permission.

Lord of Destroying Cities heard the news and rushed over. First, he invited the emperor into his tent alone, saying he wanted to report on military matters. Then, using taking a secret report as an excuse, he left the emperor's tent. Outside the tent, he let loose three arrows in quick succession. One arrow killed the gatekeeper who had escorted Emperor Wu to the camp, one arrow killed the horse, and one arrow killed Consort Mu!

It is said that "A subject must not overstep the authority of the emperor, and a general must not overstep military orders. Therefore, he drew back his bow and committed suicide."

Emperor Qi Wu stopped the general of Destroying City and cut off a lock of his hair, showing that he took responsibility as the emperor. This is what they mean by "military orders are like mountains."

In the vast annals of Daiqi, the Wind-chaser Iron Cavalry, renowned as the foremost among the Four Symbols, was forged through rigorous training. This account is meticulously documented in "The Record of Swords and Ocean-Carving: Chronicles of Qi." Furthermore, the subsequent events surrounding this matter are elaborated upon in "The Book of Qi" compiled by historians of Daiqi.

Emperor Wu held the corpse of Consort Mu in his arms and returned to the city, personally assisting with the coffin and crying for three days. The *Book of Qi* said, "His grief was unparalleled."

But even though Emperor Qi Wu was heartbroken, his reign ended with the destruction of the Hou Mansion and the nation's shared glory. This historical story is very familiar to Jiang Wang. Emperor Qi Wu and the first Destroying City Marquis are both deeply impressive legendary figures. He even has a copy of "The Art of Warfare at Shimen," written by the first Destroying City Marquis, gifted to him by the Li family matriarch. She told him not to emulate Li Longchuan, not to slack off in his youth, to stay away from brothels and read more books.

>

Although I'm far from understanding the intricacies of his teachings, I have read them diligently. Studying his words and observing how he commanded his troops has allowed me to better understand the First Annihilator Hou's choices.

History is a mirror, reflecting the rise and fall of dynasties. Diligent study of good books can bring unexpected rewards.

However, the name of that Lady Mu (沐貴妃) is not mentioned in *The Tales of a Thousand Beauties of the Warring States*. Perhaps the author of *The Tales of a Thousand Beauties of the Warring States* was not familiar enough with Emperor Wu, or perhaps Emperor Wu of Qi did not have such deep feelings for that Lady Mu.

>

Lord Wu'an's thoughts, the benefits of reading are reflected here. It is not a matter of this or that, black or white, confined to narrow views, but can draw from various sources, and see the truth clearly.

So-called genuine! Having seen the true and immortal!

Whether it's Yang Feng with the banner of might or Yu Xinzhou, the Blood King, they are both powerful figures in this realm. Their strength goes beyond just cultivation.

The Blood King battled in the vast, barren Sea of Desolation, competing with wolves for scraps and rising to become the sea's most feared predator. Day Valley has been a military stronghold for generations, acting as a barrier for humankind, guarding the dawn. Yang Feng began his journey as an ordinary soldier, leaving behind a trail of blood as he climbed the ranks, eventually becoming the first general of Day Valley's banner.

Their battles were earth-shattering, repeatedly shattering the boundaries between realms. This caused the Yellow Platform to be in turmoil and the Yuan force to collapse.

The Blood King never shied away from a good fight. He reveled in his notoriety for evil, but he didn't forget the purpose of his journey to confound the world. He wasn't here to spar with the strongest human warriors!

But he avoided that, but couldn't avoid this, it is true that heaven doesn't always grant one's wishes.

He has chased Jiang Wang twice.

But the last time Yu Wangu died, it wasn't because of Yu Wangu specifically. It was a scheme to target Futu Jingtu and give humanity a taste of cruelty. The pursuit of Jiang Wang was driven by anger, but also a convenient opportunity. He was almost stopped by Wang Ao, the number one martial artist, narrowly escaping capture.

This time, he came to the world, but only for Yu Guangyuan.

Yu Guangyuan, in his own cultivation, is already the strongest among his bloodline. Yu Guangyuan's creation as a wise teacher is even more powerful than ten thousand soldiers!

When Yu Guangyuan ascends to the rank of True King, he will undoubtedly become a powerful pillar for his faction, propelling the "Evil Extremists" to a higher level. Moreover, in the upcoming ascension that encompasses the entire sea race, they will secure a favorable position.

This is not just a beautiful idea, Yu Guangyuan has always been truly possible. This time he has even caught the opportunity and come to confuse the world's layout, just to understand the true nature of the world.

This child has a wild temperament, but his talent is undoubtedly extraordinary. His willpower is also top-notch. After recognizing the reality that even if he strives to reach the level of the fake king, it will always be inferior to the arrogance of fate, he decisively seeks advancement and aims to comprehend the truth of the world first by pursuing the position of emperor.

Having traveled ninety-nine out of a hundred miles, he was blocked at the very last step by Jiang Wang. If only he had known beforehand, he should have disregarded everything and killed this man regardless of the consequences.

"Yang Feng!" Amidst the endless clash, Blood King took a step back: "I believe you understand that no clear victor will emerge today! Though I am your enemy, I respect your strength and do not wish to see us both destroyed. Let us cease this battle for now, return to hone our skills, and meet again on another day."

The Blood King retreats, Yang Feng advances. A step forward, a body forward, a sword forward!

>

"You may leave!" Yang Feng said, "After you depart, I will destroy this Huangtai!"

The Blood King's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he forcibly restrained it. Yu Guangyuan was still alive, and his bloodline still responded. Right now, rescuing Yu Guangyuan was the top priority.

“I can’t kill you, and you can’t kill me. I advise you not to make a mistake.” Xue Wang shifted from attack to defense, giving Yang Feng the greatest patience: “Today’s situation near the sea, General Yang must be clear in your heart The Diaohai Building formed and dominated the Zhenhai Alliance, taking advantage of resources and filling its foundation, its strength grew by leaps and bounds. Qi Guo destroyed Yang and Xia, becoming invincible on all sides and specializing in overseas affairs. Only you, Yanggu, are waning in the west, with only the name of unifying the seas but without the power to unify them. You recklessly throw your life away here, not considering the future of Yanggu!”

Even after years of conflict with Dayang Valley, even though he was criticized by many True Kings as a mad king, he couldn't understand these people from Dayang Valley.

If Yang Feng had come specifically to assassinate him, if he had come with the sole intention of targeting him, then it would be understandable. But this time, they had simply happened to encounter each other. At least in his own view, and in Yang Feng's view as well, this was an unintended meeting.

The Great Dao ascends to the heavens, it is not that there is no path to walk. How can one go mad upon encountering it and insist on dividing life and death "You are right!"

Yang Feng was clad in golden armor, but his features were even more dazzling than the armor. His blade swept across the wilderness, its aura rippling for miles and causing chaos throughout the rivers and mountains!

He said, "On Jueming Island, the nine army commanders of Qi Kingdom take turns residing. The True Monarch often comes to inspect it. The four Elders of Jinghai at Diaohai Tower are all four true immortals."

"My name, Yánggǔ, is comparable to the renowned [name], making it a burden to bear such a title."

He grinned wryly: "But do you know why of the three great banners of Yanggu, only one true warrior remains" His tall figure surged towards Xue Wang like a mountain, his blade slicing through the blood river——

> "Because we fight with the most ferocity, die the most, and never hold back! When facing the Sea Clan, what do I care about my own life!"
