My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 369: Witnessing Power

Chapter 369: Witnessing Power

In Imperial City, at the Divine Marquis Armys martial training ground.

After the Divine Marquis Army triumphed over five thousand demonic creatures in the Northern Ghost Mountain Expedition, the Emperor was very pleased. He then ordered the Divine Workshop to construct this training ground, which was naturally of an extraordinary size.

Under the guidance of Ningshuang, Qin Feng entered this martial arts arena. With a single glance, Qin Feng was struck by its imposing presence.

The neatly arranged military formations were a given, and there were various training grounds for horseback shooting.

In the center of the martial arts field, there was a high military parade platform and a courtyard building. Next to the courtyard is a platform. The flag of the Divine Marquis Army is fluttering on the flagpole of the platform.

The shouts of the military exercises were uniform, even the sound of the weapons cutting through the air seemed to be synchronized.

In Qin Fengs mind, a poem by Xin Qiji came to mind: Roast beef is shared among the soldiers for their enjoyment. Galvanized beats fill the air in the borderland. In the fall, troops are inspected on the battlefield.

The scene in front of him truly matched the description in the poem!

It is indeed remarkable, Qin Feng exclaimed sincerely.

Lan Ningshuang smiled and said, The reputation of the Divine Marquis Army is echoing throughout the Great Qian, of course its extraordinary. 

However, sir, you may not know that when the head of the Liu family took over this army, it had less than two thousand soldiers and was extremely lax. 

If it werent for the able leadership of the Liu family head, the Divine Marquis Army wouldnt have won victory after victory and grown to its current size.

Currently, there were more than thirty thousand soldiers in this drill ground, not counting the part of the army that was engaged in external battles!

Lan Ningshuang looked around and pointed to a building, Sir, look over there, this courtyard is where new recruits are trained. 

Xing Sheng came from there when he was young. Moreover, young master, you may not know, but Xing Sheng was the most outstanding among all the soldiers back then.

Oh? If I had known that, I would have brought him with me today, and he would have been delighted. By the way, where is the arranged meeting place? Qin Feng asked.

Its on the parade platform in front. Lan Ningshuang replied.

Qin Feng looked in that direction and actually saw his father-in-law.

At this moment, unlike the Liu family, the father-in-law was not wearing casual clothes, but was dressed in battle armor with a long sword at his waist, looking dignified.

Qin Feng even faintly saw a shadow of his wife from his father-in-law.

It seems that my wife inherited the charm from her mother-in-law, but this heroic demeanor was inherited from this military god father-in-law.

Turning his head to the side, Deng Mo, the head of the Demon Slaying Department of the Imperial City, had also arrived.

Without further delay, Qin Feng walked over to the stage.

On the platform, Deng Mo said, I didnt expect that little kid who was only waist-high back then to have grown into the military god of Great Qian, leading such a brave army. Time flies, it really makes people sigh with emotion.

Chief Deng is joking. The title of Military God is just a casual address from the public. 

Instead, I still deeply admire Chief Deng. If it werent for you single-handedly guarding the eastern border for three days and nights back then, Im afraid the feet of the asura would have already trampled the entire eastern region.

Upon hearing this, Deng Mos eyes flashed with a hint of melancholy. These are things of the past. If I move my old bones now, Im afraid they will fall apart. 

By the way, I am really jealous of you. Not only do you have a good daughter, but you also have a good son-in-law. One is the youngest third stage sword god in the world, and the other is talented and promising.

Upon hearing Deng Mos praise, even the usually reserved Liu Tianluo showed a slight smile. 

Liu Jianli had always been his pride, and as for his son-in-law, he was quite satisfied. 

His only regret was that the son-in-laws cultivation level was too low. It might be impossible to fulfill his wifes wish for grandchildren in the short term.

The boy from the Qin family has invented gunpowder. If it is as powerful as he said, it would be of great benefit to the low-level soldiers and demon hunters of the Great Qian Clan. Have you personally seen this gunpowder? Deng Mo asked.

Liu Tianlu shook his head, He gathered us here to show off the gunpowder.

In this world where demons and ghosts roamed freely, lower level warriors and demon slayers often served as cannon fodder and tactical sacrifices.

However, with the advent of gunpowder, this situation would change drastically, giving these people more importance and even allowing them to play unexpected roles.

Of course, whether this expectation could be realized depended on the reliability of gunpowder.

The boy is here. Deng Mo smiled, the scars under his right eye crinkling together.

Father, Chief Deng, Qin Feng greeted, and Lan Ningshuang on the side also greeted respectfully.

Liu Tianlu nodded in acknowledgement, Did you bring everything?

Qin Feng hummed and then took out a black iron orb with a fuse on top from his chest.

Is this the finished product you mentioned earlier? Deng Mo looked curious. 

As the former commander of the Eastern Domain, he had seen a variety of treasures and artifacts, but this strangely shaped thing was a first.

Could such a thing really unleash a power comparable to the full-force strike of a fifth-class martial artist?

A doubt appeared in his mind.

Yes, Chief Deng. I call it an explosive. Just light the fuse at the top, and once it detonates, it can unleash unparalleled power, Qin Feng explained confidently.

Hearing is fiction, seeing is believing. Im going to demonstrate it for both of you.

Qin Feng looked down at the audience filled with soldiers in training. He turned his head and said, Can you make room for me? Im afraid that if this thing explodes, the power might be too great and someone might get hurt.

Deng Mo raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

Liu Tianlu pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath and shouted, All soldiers, line up on both sides!

In this drill ground, Liu Tianlus command was the highest order. The sound spread out in all directions, and in no time, all the soldiers lined up on both sides, clearing the middle.

Just when these soldiers thought that General Liu had given this order for a practical combat demonstration, they saw a handsome young man dressed in black running all the way to the center of the drill ground.

Despite the countless curiosities in their hearts, no one spoke.

Qin Feng glanced around and made sure that everyone kept a safe distance. 

He took a deep breath and placed the explosive powder on the ground. He took out a match from his storage ring and lit the fuse. 

Qin Feng then fled to a safe distance, covering his ears with both hands.

This series of inexplicable actions made the onlookers look puzzled.

However, just as the spark from the fuse entered the black iron orb, there was a blinding flash of light, followed by a deafening thunderclap!

Bang!

The sound came and went quickly.

As the soldiers recovered from their shock, they looked at the explosion site. A pit had been blasted into the ground, with cracks spreading like a spider web.

Countless pieces of shattered iron splashed around, with the farthest flying onto the parade ground.

Liu Tianluo gestured with his right hand, and the iron fragments swept into his hand, still carrying the searing heat.

He looked at the dark imprint on the ground, and a turbulent wave surged in his heart.
