Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.

"The Heavenly Pavilion originally had two factions regarding your arrangements. One faction wanted to keep you in Heavenly City so that you could cultivate peacefully and not go to the front lines to take risks."

"The other faction thinks you should be put in the most dangerous place to hone your skills."

"This will also allow you to utilize your combat abilities."

"To alleviate pressure on border defenses."

"I am the former."

Qin Tianheng stated his choice first.

Then he explained, "With your achievements, you only need to steadily accumulate political achievements for a few years to be promoted to Heavenly General. At that time, no one can stop you from doing whatever you want. But unfortunately, the Heavenly Pavilion is not a place where I can make the decisions alone."

Jiang Chuan gleaned some clues from his words.

he knows.

Where there is a struggle for interests, factions are bound to emerge.

Qin Tianheng shares some interests with Marshal Zhou, so naturally there will be a faction that opposes them, such as the Tenth General Murong Jin.

His appointment, on the surface, seemed insignificant to the overall situation of the Federation, but in reality, it involved a struggle between multiple factions.

At least as an opposition faction.

They certainly wouldn't see Qin Tianheng achieve his goal so easily.

He asked knowingly, "What's going on in Tiannan City?"

Qin Tianheng's tone immediately turned angry. "There's something fishy going on! It's just a desolate fishing port on the Lingnan coast, two thousand miles away from the Blood Cat Clan's border, without even a decent secret realm! Throwing you into a place like that is practically exile!"

Jiang Chuan didn't react much.

He knew nothing about Tiannan City, but judging from Qin Tianheng's reaction, this place was probably not even as good as Tianyuan City.

"It's all that old hag Murong Jin's doing!"

Qin Tianheng slammed his hand on the table, his resentment palpable: "I publicly humiliated her regarding the Li and Chu families, and she resorted to such underhanded tactics to sabotage me, sending you to Tiannan City. She just wants you to be stuck there for three to five years, preventing you from accumulating merits or political achievements, so she'll have a reason to block your promotion!"

Ignoring his emotional outburst, Jiang Chuan simply asked, "Is there anything special about Tiannan City?"

"special?"

Qin Tianheng sneered: "Extremely poor, extremely remote, you could get moldy just staying there! ... The only special thing about it is that the city lord disappeared without a trace half a year ago."

"Oh?"

"The city lord of Tiannan City is Wen Shiliang. He is at the early stage of the seventh rank. He comes from a commoner background and has no noble family background. He is an old soldier who fought his way up from the border army. Ten years ago, he made great contributions in the northern border and was seriously injured. Therefore, he was enfeoffed to Tiannan City to retire."

Qin Tianheng's tone softened, but the gloom in his eyes did not dissipate: "Six months ago, Wen Shiliang disappeared while inspecting the coastal defense zone. He was never seen alive or dead."

"TianGe sent two investigation teams, but neither of them found anything."

"Now."

"The affairs of Tiannan City are being managed by a deputy city lord named Ma Yuanhua."

He paused, looked at Jiang Chuan, and his tone became meaningful: "Murong Jin may not have sent you to Tiannan City just to disgust me. The case of Wen Shiliang's disappearance is still unsolved. If you can't find out, she can say that you are incompetent. If you find out something that you shouldn't have... Although Tiannan City is remote, it is still an official part of the Federation. There may be undercurrents beneath the surface."

Jiang Chuan's reaction was calm: "So she not only found me a godforsaken place, but also dug a pit for me to jump into?"

Qin Tianheng did not deny it, but just snorted.

He doesn't have any solid evidence right now, so he can't do anything to Murong Jin, but this matter makes him very uncomfortable.

"You don't need to worry about her."

Qin Tianheng stood up, walked to the window, his back to Jiang Chuan, and said in a deep voice, "Although Tiannan City is remote, its remoteness has its advantages."

"First, it's far from the front lines, so there won't be any major battles in the short term. You can focus on developing your strength without having to worry about dealing with the alien races."

"Secondly, although the South China Sea region is poor, it is the cities that are poor."

"Not the sea."

"There are many undeveloped resource points in that sea area. If you're lucky, you might even make a fortune."

He turned around and looked at Jiang Chuan: "Third, and most importantly, after you take office in Tiannan City, you will still have the status of a candidate for Heavenly General. No one there can control you. No matter how far Murong Jin's reach is, it can't extend to the Lingnan coast thousands of kilometers away."

"As long as you build a solid track record of achievements over there and thoroughly investigate Wen Shiliang's case, she won't be able to stop you even if she wants to."

Jiang Chuan nodded. He was eager to be promoted to Heavenly General, activate the teleportation array, and head to the outer realm.

But I also understand that this matter cannot be rushed.

Heavenly General.

It's not just a job title, but also a responsibility.

The Federation would not entrust such important power to a power-hungry monster who has no humanity in his heart and only wants to pursue power.

And the political achievements of the card

It is the most effective way to test people's hearts and sense of responsibility.

Unless he turns on them completely, disregards the lives of the human race, and slaughters all the Federation's high-ranking officials to force them to activate the teleportation array and let him leave.

However, Jiang Chuan had transmigrated to this world at a young age and lived there for sixteen years, and he still had parents with whom he shared a deep blood bond.

To say that there is no sense of belonging at all.

Nor is it possible.

Just keep going.

However, you don't need to wait too long.

Once the border war begins, he will have a way to silence everyone.

And most importantly.

nowadays.

The initiative to start the war was actually in his hands.

"You're quite composed."

Qin Tianheng was somewhat surprised to see that he did not show any dissatisfaction: "If it were any other young person, being transferred from the front line to a remote and impoverished area would have made them furious."

Jiang Chuan smiled faintly and said, "It's the same for me wherever I go, anyway, nothing can stump me."

Looking at his self-righteous expression, Qin Tianheng's lips twitched violently. He wanted to call him arrogant, but he swallowed the words back because he realized that every word this little bastard said was actually the truth.

This kind of honesty is the most infuriating.

"Alright, stop joking with me."

Qin Tianheng waved his hand, sat back down behind his desk, took out a file from the drawer and pushed it in front of Jiang Chuan: "This is detailed information about Tiannan City, including its geographical environment, population distribution, garrison organization, economic structure, and investigation records of Wen Shiliang's disappearance. Go back and take a good look at it. You must leave within three days."

Jiang Chuan put the file into his pocket, stood up, and said, "Alright, then I won't delay any longer."

He turned and walked to the door when Qin Tianheng's voice suddenly came from behind him, "When you get there, be careful in everything. Although Tiannan City is not the front line, it can make a seventh-level city lord disappear without a trace. That place may not be much safer than the front line."

Jiang Chuan paused for a moment, then glanced at Qin Tianheng. The seventy-something-year-old man sat behind a large rosewood desk, his white hair as white as snow, his face deeply lined with wrinkles, only his eyes still gleaming with a sharp, restrained light.

"Don't worry, I won't die."

Jiang Chuan grinned at him: "As for you, hurry up and settle my matter of ascending to heaven. When I come back, I will open that teleportation array legitimately."

Qin Tianheng watched his back disappear through the door, and after a long while, he finally snorted, "...That brat, he's incredibly arrogant."
