Immortal God of War

At this moment.

The two of them both fell silent.

The place sank into dead stillness.

Beside them, Wang Jin was also nervously watching the Spiritual Stone.

Although she didn't understand why Qin Feiyang wanted to do this, she knew this might change her younger brother's fate.

Buzz!

At last!

The Spiritual Stone trembled for the sixteenth time.

That meant Wang XiaoJie possessed Level Six spiritual power!

But!

Just as the Spiritual Stone trembled, Wang XiaoJie's body also began to sway!

"Has he already reached his limit?"

Qin Feiyang muttered.

Yet!

Wang XiaoJie did not collapse. His swaying body gradually steadied.

"Buzz!"

Before long.

The Spiritual Stone trembled for the seventeenth time!

The light that burst out was extremely dazzling, so much so that Wang Jin at the side couldn't even look at it directly.

The Heart Demon transmitted his voice: "Level Seventeen spiritual power—looking across this world, besides you, who else can compare with him?"

Qin Feiyang remained silent, but his hands unknowingly clenched tight.

It could be seen.

His heart was far from calm at this moment.

Buzz!

A few breaths later, the Spiritual Stone trembled once again.

Level Eighteen spiritual power!

The Heart Demon chuckled: "My true body, I'm about to catch up to you."

"You won't."

Qin Feiyang said.

As expected!

Before his voice faded, Wang XiaoJie's body shook violently, and he immediately toppled to the ground, unconscious.

"Xiao Jie…"

Wang Jin's face changed. She hastily stepped forward and held Wang XiaoJie in her arms, her face full of panic.

The Heart Demon said: "No need to worry. He just overused his spiritual power, and on top of that, he hasn't had a drop of water these past few days. He just fainted."

"Is that so?"

Wang Jin looked up at him.

The Heart Demon nodded.

Only then did Wang Jin let out a breath of relief.

The Heart Demon turned to look at Qin Feiyang, grinning: "My true body, how about it?"

Qin Feiyang looked at Wang XiaoJie, let out a long breath, then looked at Wang Jin and said: "Give him to me."

"Give him to you?"

Wang Jin was stunned.

The Heart Demon said helplessly: "How can you be this dense? When my true body says that, it obviously means he agrees to take your brother as a disciple."

Wang Jin glanced at the Heart Demon, then looked at Qin Feiyang, asking excitedly: "Young master, is this true?"

Qin Feiyang nodded.

"Thank you, young master."

Wang Jin hurriedly knelt down to give thanks.

Qin Feiyang said: "You should go back. I'll have someone take care of your brother."

"This…"

Hearing this, Wang Jin couldn't help becoming flustered.

Qin Feiyang said: "Are you worried that I'll be like that Crane Immortal, taking your brother away so you'll never see him again?"

Wang Jin nodded.

Qin Feiyang shook his head with a smile and said: "Don't worry. I won't restrict his freedom."

"Then that's good."

Wang Jin breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her head to look at Wang XiaoJie, and murmured: "Heaven does not disappoint the earnest. Now you've finally gotten your wish and entered young master's tutelage. You must work hard from now on. Don't let young master's favor toward you be in vain."

With that said.

Wang Jin stood up, raised her head to look at Qin Feiyang, bowed slightly, and said: "Then I'll have to trouble young master to take care of my little brother from now on."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Wang Jin lowered her head to glance at Wang XiaoJie, then resolutely turned and walked toward the village.

But suddenly.

She stopped again, lowered her head, a trace of struggle in her eyes.

In the end.

She mustered her courage, turned to look at Qin Feiyang, and asked: "Master Qin, may I know where Young Master Luk Zheng is now?"

"Luk Zheng?"

Qin Feiyang was slightly taken aback.

The Heart Demon's expression also turned a bit strange.

Seeing that Qin Feiyang stayed silent for a long time, a hint of disappointment climbed onto Wang Jin's face. Forcing a smile, she said: "If it's inconvenient for young master to say, then just pretend I never asked."

With that, she turned to leave.

Qin Feiyang watched Wang Jin's back, and a trace of sympathy surfaced in his eyes as he said: "Miss, wait."

Wang Jin instantly stopped, turned around, and looked at Qin Feiyang with expectation.

"Miss."

"There are some things I think I have to make clear to you."

"Back then, what Luk Zheng said wasn't meant to convey anything. He was simply comforting you, so please don't overthink it."

Qin Feiyang said.

His words were very direct.

He did this for Wang Jin's sake.

Because Luk Zheng would never truly fall for Wang Jin, things had to be clarified early, to cut off Wang Jin's hopes, so she wouldn't sink deeper and deeper.

Hearing Qin Feiyang's words, Wang Jin's hands clenched tightly around her belt, and a mist of tears rose in her eyes.

Qin Feiyang said: "I think you actually already sensed it. During that period, Luk Zheng had been avoiding you."

"I did sense it."

Wang Jin nodded.

"Since you sensed it, why persist like this?"

"Feelings must be mutual. They can't be forced."

Qin Feiyang said.

"I understand. Thank you, young master."

Wang Jin bowed and then turned to leave, desolate.

The Heart Demon hadn't spoken this whole time. Only after Wang Jin disappeared from sight did he turn to look at Qin Feiyang and say: "I thought you'd take the chance to do something that would give Luk Zheng an even bigger headache, but I didn't expect you to actually help him directly solve this big trouble."

"Some things you can joke about, but some you absolutely cannot—and Wang Jin belongs to the latter."

Qin Feiyang said.

"I won't deny that."

The Heart Demon nodded, then said: "Alright, everything's pretty much settled. I should go back to the inner world now. You keep an eye on Mother."

"Keep an eye on Mother?"

Qin Feiyang looked at him suspiciously.

The Heart Demon said: "I feel like she still has something weighing on her mind and might leave."

Qin Feiyang immediately furrowed his brows.

"Do as you see fit!"

"If Mother truly wants to leave, we can't stop her."

The Heart Demon shook his head, closed the Killing Art, and his consciousness retreated back into the inner world.

"Yeah."

"If Mother wants to leave, who could possibly stop her?"

Qin Feiyang let out a long sigh, filled with deep helplessness, then let his consciousness return to his body, picked up Wang XiaoJie, and went to the ancient castle.

"Young Master, does this brat really have Level Eighteen spiritual power?"

Wealthy Elixir King immediately ran over to Qin Feiyang, looking at Wang XiaoJie in shocked disbelief.

"Mm."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Wealthy Elixir King said, "Then this is a fine seedling!"

Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "So, you have to train him well."

"Me?"

Wealthy Elixir King was stunned.

"Of course."

"Besides me, you're the one here with the highest attainments in Alchemy. If you don't teach him, who will?"

Qin Feiyang said, and with that he directly stuffed Wang XiaoJie into Wealthy Elixir King's hands.

"Young Master, you're planning to be a hands-off Shopkeeper, huh!"

Wealthy Elixir King said helplessly.

Qin Feiyang chuckled, then turned his head to look at the Wolf King and the other beasts.

Ever since the time rules of the ancient castle had changed, these fellows had been in seclusion every day; their cultivation was advancing by leaps and bounds!

Take the Wolf King for example—how many days has it been? It has already broken through a minor realm.

At this rate, everyone will soon catch up to him.

It seemed that once everything was taken care of, he would also have to come to the ancient castle and enter seclusion for a good bout of cultivation.

"Hm?"

Suddenly!

It was as if something occurred to him, and his brows knit slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Wealthy Elixir King looked at him suspiciously.

"I forgot someone."

A cold light flashed in Qin Feiyang's eyes as he immediately left the ancient castle, appeared above the village, and shouted, "Elder Wang, come see me at once."

Swoosh!

Wang Yangfeng immediately shot out from the village, landed in front of Qin Feiyang, and asked, "Young Master, what is it?"

Qin Feiyang said, "Have you seen Crane Immortal?"

"Crane Immortal?"

Wang Yangfeng was startled, thought carefully, then shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him."

Qin Feiyang said, "Go ask the others right away."

"Alright."

Wang Yangfeng nodded, dove down like lightning, and entered the village.

Before long.

He returned to Qin Feiyang's side again and shook his head, saying, "None of them have seen Crane Immortal."

"Strange."

"Back then, it was clearly the State Preceptor's descendant who saved him. How could he not be here?"

Qin Feiyang frowned.

Wang Yangfeng asked, "Is it possible he went to the Imperial City?"

"Imperial City…"

Qin Feiyang muttered, a cold light flashing in his eyes, and said, "If he really went to the Imperial City, the State Preceptor should have arranged for him to enter the Law Enforcement Hall."

With that, Qin Feiyang took out the Image Crystal Stone.

Buzz!

Before long.

A phantom appeared—it was Yan Wei.

Qin Feiyang asked with a smile, "Well? Have you managed to gain the State Preceptor's trust?"

"How could it be that fast!"

Yan Wei shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "But not long ago I did see him once, and I noticed his expression was really off."

Qin Feiyang said, "That's not surprising, because I wiped out his lair in one go."

"Wiped out in one go?"

Yan Wei was stunned and asked, "Then did you find your mother?"

"I did."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

"That's good."

Yan Wei let out a breath and said, "So what did you contact me for this time?"

"Help me investigate someone."

Qin Feiyang waved his hand, and Crane Immortal's phantom appeared. He said, "I suspect he's now in the Law Enforcement Hall. Go check it out for me. As soon as there's news, inform me immediately."

"Friend or foe?"

Yan Wei glanced at Crane Immortal and asked.

"Foe!"

Qin Feiyang said, killing intent surging in his eyes.

"Got it."

Yan Wei nodded, and the phantom dissipated.

Wang Yangfeng gave a thumbs up, smiling as he said, "Young Master, impressive—you actually planted an inside line at the State Preceptor's side."

Qin Feiyang gave a faint smile.

Swoosh!

At this moment.

A sound of something slicing through the air came. Qin Feiyang turned to look and saw his mother flying toward them.

"Go on with your work."

Qin Feiyang said to Wang Yangfeng, then flew toward his mother.

Once the two of them met up, Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "Mother, what do you think of Master Ren as a person?"

The woman said, "Although Master Ren is not strong, his temperament is far beyond that of ordinary people."

"That's true enough."

Qin Feiyang nodded and asked, "Has he calmed down yet?"

"How could the pain of losing a son be so easily put down?"

"However, he has figured things out. He's decided to stay here and live out his remaining years in peace, and leave the rest to you young people to handle."

The woman said with a smile.

"That's what my big sister and I were hoping for too. If he can think it through on his own, all the better—saves us from having to persuade him."

Qin Feiyang said.

The woman smiled, glanced at the village below, and said, "Tian Er, every person here will be a pillar of yours in the future. Cherish them well."

"Your son understands."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

The woman said, "Then let's go!"

Qin Feiyang was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Go where?"

"The Imperial City!"

The woman said.
