Just like there are always many cultivators who are stuck at the ninth level of foundation building and the ninth level of golden elixir, many warriors, after reaching the peak of the fourth level, are only one step away from the fifth level, but they often have to hone their skills for several years, plus luck, before they can successfully break through.

More people, on the contrary, will lose the chance to reach the fifth realm as they age, their bodies age, and their Qi and blood deteriorate instead of improving.

Situ Yuan originally thought that Lu Bin would probably need another two or three years of hard work before he could make a breakthrough.

Who would have thought that after going on a mission and not seeing each other for a few days, he would already have reached the fifth realm?

Judging from his expression, it seemed that breaking through was as easy as eating and drinking.

Situ Yuan had to admit that he was jealous!

But then he thought again, he had already established a good relationship with Lu Bin and was holding on to this golden thigh.

The stronger Lu Bin becomes, won’t his status in the future also rise?

Isn’t it a skill to be able to flatter others?

Thinking of this, Situ Yuan felt much more balanced. He then remembered something else and asked carefully.

"Brother Lu, how old are you this year?"

Anle was in a weird mood. According to the panel, he was only seventeen years old!

But directly reporting this age is obviously too shocking.

Not to mention Situ Yuan, even An Le himself felt that reaching the fifth realm at the age of seventeen was a bit outrageous. Once it got out, there would probably be bad consequences.

Therefore, Anle could only say ambiguously: "I haven't practiced martial arts for a long time, so I should be slightly younger than Brother Situ."

What Anle said was the truth. It had only been three years since he traveled through time, which was not a long time.

Situ Yuan didn't think too much about it and asked, "Then he should be under 40 years old, right?"

Anle nodded.

"Under forty years old, the fifth realm..."

"This talent... is on par with that legendary first divine general."

Situ Yuan's eyes were shocked as he looked Anle up and down, feeling that he might be witnessing the birth of a legend.

He did not continue to ask about his age, but said: "Brother Lu, since you have reached the fifth level, you are qualified to be promoted to a thousand households, but..."

Anle immediately understood what he meant, shook his head and said, "I have no plans to become a thousand households for the time being."

"Besides, I have little experience and no achievements. It is too early to consider becoming a thousand households now."

"As for the news that I have broken through to the fifth realm, please do not spread it, Brother Situ."

Situ Yuan was also a smart man, and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I've always kept my mouth shut."

After a brief conversation, Situ Yuan was kept by Anle to enjoy the barbecue dinner together.

While eating the meat, Situ Yuan was quite impressed: "It turns out that the meat roasted by the flame of blood and qi is really delicious."

Just as they were enjoying their meal, the Zhenling Commander badge on Situ Yuan's waist vibrated slightly.

After hearing the message, Situ Yuan's expression changed several times.

"A rebellion occurred in Liuzhou?"

Hearing this, Anle's expression became serious: "Rebellion?"

"Is there a rebellion?"

Anle was really a little surprised. During the simulation, he naturally did not barbecue and feed his senior sister, nor did he invite Situ Yuan to be a guest, so he did not know about this incident.

And why...did no one tell him about this through the token?

"Mostly those unruly people in the mountains of Liuzhou."

Situ Yuan's expression was different from what Anle had expected. Not only was he not too nervous, but he even looked a little happy.

"Military achievement! This is a military achievement!"

Situ Yuan looked at An Le excitedly: "Brother Lu, your military merit for being promoted to the rank of Qian Hu is here!"

Anle couldn't help but frown slightly.

This is a rebellion, why is Situ Yuan so relaxed about it?

As if he saw Anle's doubt, Situ Yuan explained repeatedly: "Brother Lu, you are focused on practicing martial arts, so it is normal that you don't know these trivial matters."

"In Liuzhou, similar rebellions have occurred more than once in recent years. They sound serious, but in fact they are all a mob, not worth mentioning. There is no need to send out the army, and the rebellion can be easily suppressed with the help of the Zhenling Division."

Situ Yuan smiled easily, with a slight smug look on his face: "Originally this kind of news would not reach our Qingzhou, but I have a good friend in Liuzhou, so I was able to learn about it in advance."

"If we start our journey now and arrive in Liuzhou, we should be able to share a share of the military merit. If you, Brother Lu, move quickly and capture the leader of the rebels, the credit will be great."

Hearing this, Anle's brows furrowed even deeper.

He could actually understand what Situ Yuan meant.

After all, in the Great Tai Divine Dynasty, the strong are respected.

A warrior of a high level can defeat an entire army alone, and no matter how many mortals and warriors of a low level there are, it will be of no avail.

The Zhenling Division recruits talents from all over the world and almost has warriors from all four realms.

Even if there are strong people of the same level among the rebels, they are just a few big cats and small cats, and they can't make any waves.

The so-called rebellion is of course short-lived and there is no need to worry.

But although Situ Yuan said it lightly, Anle felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.

Regardless of whether a rebellion is easy to suppress, the frequent appearance of rebels in a place is very telling.

Seeing Anle's expression, Situ Yuan thought he still didn't believe it, so in order to confirm his statement, he whispered: "You don't know, there are several thousand households in our department, and it is by suppressing the rebellion that we have accumulated enough military merits."

At this time, Anle suddenly asked: "Has there been any rebellion in Qingzhou in recent years?"

Situ Yuan pondered for a moment: "Hmm... there should be some, but they were basically suppressed very quickly, and the scope of the impact was extremely small."

"In fact, this situation exists in all states to a greater or lesser extent, but it is particularly frequent in Liuzhou."

Situ Yuan saw that Anle seemed very interested in this, so he said a few more words.

"After all, Liuzhou has a complex terrain. Most of it is mountainous, with miasma forests and swamps everywhere, which is suitable for hiding. It is also difficult for the army to penetrate deep into the rebellion, which gave them some breathing space."

Anle nodded: "I understand."

He recalled what he saw in Nanlin Village and Baoqi County when he first came to the Datai Divine Dynasty.

The government colluded with the gentry and landlords, corruption was rampant, human life was disregarded, and the law was completely disregarded.

If Hai Yuqing had not arrived, the people’s grievances would probably never be redressed.

See the big picture from the small details and get a glimpse of the leopard through the tube.

If a small county has become like this, the corruption in the court will only become more serious and more outrageous.

At that time, Anle realized that the Da Tai Divine Dynasty was already seriously ill, and it was normal for rebellions to occur one after another.

It's just that the court of the Great Tai Divine Dynasty had an absolute advantage in military force, and the scale of the rebellion had always been small, so no similar news had been heard.

After Situ Yuan's explanation, Anle finally understood.

He sighed softly in his heart, but he didn't intend to get involved in this matter, so he just said directly: "I'm not interested in this matter."

"If Brother Situ has any ideas, why not look for someone else?"

Situ Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed dryly: "Since Brother Lu doesn't want to go, then don't go. You are still young and have plenty of opportunities!"

Judging from what he said, he obviously still wants to get involved in person.

After all, achievements don’t come easily, and there are no such good opportunities on ordinary days.

Although Situ Yuan's strength is not enough, no one would think that his military achievements are too little.

Soon, Situ Yuan said goodbye and left, apparently to prepare for relevant matters.

Anle calmed down and continued to grill meat and feed his senior sister.

The Yin siblings also heard their conversation just now.

Yin Feichen looked confused and asked, "Master, are we going to fight?"

Yin Yu is a little older and knows more than Yin Feichen, and he also understands the heaviness behind the word "rebellion".

Why would they still rebel even though they knew that the Da Tai Divine Dynasty was powerful and the warriors of the Zhenling Division were strong?

Isn’t it because you are forced to live no longer?

If there is a way to survive, who would be willing to take a dead end that is doomed to failure?

Yin Yu, who was once almost forced into a desperate situation, felt deeply touched.

They are lucky to have found a master, which allows them to live such a peaceful and beautiful life now.

But what about the majority of civilians in the Great Tai Dynasty?

Anle didn't know what Yin Yu was thinking. He just shook his head and said, "No, the rebellion has nothing to do with us."

"Besides, this matter will probably be settled soon."

Although he said so, Anle had an inexplicable bad feeling in his heart.

He decided to pay a little attention to the information related to this matter in his deduction.

******

The next day.

Anle came to the Zhenling Tower.

He noticed that the atmosphere in Zhenlingsi today was a little different from usual.

Warriors often whisper to each other.

Anle listened carefully and found that most of the content of the discussion was related to the rebellion in Liuzhou.

Obviously, Situ Yuan is not the only well-informed person in Zhenling Division. Many warriors are also tempted by it.

But after a simulation, Anle learned that this rebellion was different from previous ones and might be extremely risky.

"It's Captain Lu!"

"Meet Lord Lu."

Wherever Anle went, the warriors greeted him respectfully.

In the Zhenling Division, the name of the jade-faced scholar Lu Bin has long been well-known.

Of course, Lu Bin’s fame is far less than that of the ghost-faced man who is comparable to a monster.

After returning from Master Kong's cave, the Ghost-Faced Man's reputation soared again, especially within the Spirit Control Division. Many warriors treated him with awe and fear, and even those warriors who had not gone to the cave knew about his incredible record.

Anle nodded in response.

Before he had taken two steps, Pei Zun called him from behind.

"Little friend Lu."

Anle responded: "Master Pei, you are here so early."

"what?"

Pei Zun was about to speak, but he unexpectedly raised his eyebrows and stared at Anle carefully.

The aura of this gentle young man seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and even he could not see through it for a moment.

However, Pei Zun did not think that An Le had broken through to the fifth realm. He just thought that An Le had made some progress, so he said, "Congratulations, my friend. Your martial arts realm has improved again."

Anle had deliberately suppressed the strength of his qi and blood, and said with a smile: "Master Pei, is there anything wrong?"

Pei Zun glanced around and after confirming that no one was paying attention to this place, he walked closer and spoke softly.

"It's not a big deal, I just want to remind you that Mr. Tie is a little dissatisfied with your performance last time."

The "last time" mentioned here naturally refers to the action in the immortal cave.

Pei Zun almost never saw Anle, and only met her when the dust settled.

He repeated the whole process to Tie Lao in detail.

Tie Lao was quite suspicious. He wondered if An Le was hiding in some corner, unwilling to be an enemy of Ren Kui, and had survived by "hiding himself".

For ordinary warriors, being prudent, steady and following one's heart may not be a bad thing. People with these qualities can live longer.
