Immortal God of War

After Fatty and White-Eyed Wolf entered into their cultivation state, the others also closed their eyes and calmly started cultivating.

Qin Feiyang never spoke another word, silently practicing the Action Art.

Within the ancient castle, it gradually calmed down, presenting a harmonious atmosphere.

But outside, the undercurrents were surging!

First and foremost, there was the State Preceptor.

Although the first step of his plan had been completed, he dared not relax even a bit.

Because in his heart, there was always a thorn.

This thorn, undoubtedly, was the Emperor!

So next, he spared no expense, sending out all trusted individuals to every corner of the Great Qin Empire, including its nine provinces, in search of the Emperor's whereabouts.

Of course.

The people sent to find the Emperor were very discreet.

Because once the news leaked, the news of the Emperor's assassination would quickly spread throughout the Great Qin Empire.

This was not the result Emperor Hong wished to see.

As for Elder Qin and the Kylin Army Commander, initially they were looking for various reasons to prevent the State Preceptor's people from entering the nine provinces.

Because they knew the Emperor was in the nine provinces.

Preventing the State Preceptor's people from entering the nine provinces was equivalent to protecting the Emperor's safety.

But soon!

They discovered that everything they did was futile.

Because now, backed by Emperor Hong, the State Preceptor was at the height of power, it was simply impossible to stop him.

Thus.

They could only give up.

And could only silently pray for the Emperor in their hearts.

Besides, the descendants of the Zhuge family slowly became active.

But their way of being active was all about taunting Qin Feiyang.

Especially Zhuge Jinghong, who had Xia Changjin in the Temple all day belittling Qin Feiyang.

Claiming that Qin Feiyang was cowardly, timid, and useless, afraid to accept Zhuge Jinghong's challenge.

He did this, of course, intentionally to provoke Qin Feiyang.

However.

Qin Feiyang received the message but didn't care at all.

But Qin Feiyang's silence only made Zhuge Jinghong more unscrupulous, saying whatever he pleased.

Eventually, he even had Xia Changjin insult Qin Feiyang's mother.

Because people in the Imperial Capital all knew that the person Qin Feiyang cared about the most was his mother.

So Zhuge Jinghong believed this would undoubtedly anger Qin Feiyang.

Not only Zhuge Jinghong, but even all the disciples of the Hall of Martial Gods thought the same.

That day.

Many disciples who normally never showed their faces all came out, gathering at the fighting arena, waiting expectantly for Qin Feiyang's arrival.

But!

Until nightfall, Qin Feiyang still didn't appear.

Everyone returned disappointed.

In addition to disappointment, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sneer.

Even when his mother was publicly insulted, he didn't appear; truly a waste.

However, the next day, something happened that shocked the entire Temple.

Someone discovered Zhuge Jinghong and Xia Changjin's corpses early in the morning at the fighting arena!

The two had been dismembered, thrown into the center of the arena, their death extremely tragic.

The bloody scene terrified countless disciples!

Because throughout the night, they had sensed no battle fluctuations at the Hall of Martial Gods.

Which means, Zhuge Jinghong and Xen Changjin were silently assassinated!

You must know.

Zhuge Jinghong was an Eight-star War Emperor!

To silently kill him, even a Nine-Star War Emperor might not be able to do it!

Moreover, the Hall of Martial Gods had Elders and the Hall Master overseeing it.

The Elder and Hall Master were both Nine-Star War Emperor level existences.

Who was the person who committed such a deed?

Bold enough to kill Zhuge Jinghong beneath the noses of two Nine-Star War Emperors?

But soon.

Everyone thought of one person.

And the person they thought of was the same one.

——Qin Feiyang!

Xia Changjin insulted Qin Feiyang's mother that day, and the two were assassinated that night; if Qin Feiyang didn't do it, then who?

Now.

No one dared to make fun of Qin Feiyang anymore.

In fact, Qin Feiyang's name had become taboo in the War God realm.

But the Zhuge family, because of Zhuge Jinghong's death, harbored increasing hatred towards Qin Feiyang.

Nobody cared about Xia Changjin.

But Zhuge Jinghong was Zhuge Nanhua's adopted son; breaking through to an Eight-star War Emperor at such a young age, he was considered a genius, his future prospects limitless.

He even had a chance to step into the realm of Pseudo God.

Losing such a talent, anyone in the Martial Marquis position would be far from indifferent.

On the day of Zhuge Jinghong's death, Zhuge Nanhua and Martial Marquis Zhuge furiously stormed into Bright Sky Palace, demanding an explanation from Qin Feiyang.

But from start to finish, they never even saw Qin Feiyang's face.

Unsatisfied, they went to find the State Preceptor, asking him to stand up for them.

After all, now the State Preceptor was managing state affairs; in the Great Qin Empire, it was his word that counted.

Yet.

The State Preceptor not only refused to stand up for them but scolded them instead.

And declared that Zhuge Jinghong sought his own death.

Who is Qin Feiyang?

Was he someone Zhuge Jinghong could provoke?

Also, how could he have the audacity to insult his mother?

Nowadays, who doesn't know that Qin Feiyang's mother is his outrage, touch it and you die?

Of course.

The loss of such a genius descendant angered the State Preceptor as well, but as a cunning Old Fox, he chose wisely to endure silently.

Because now was not the time to confront Qin Feiyang.

...

Time seemed like sand through fingers, in the blink of an eye, another ten days passed.

That morning!

Inside the Golden Throne Hall.

After dealing with state affairs, the State Preceptor dismissed the civil and military officials and the Chief Eunuch, leaving only Martial Marquis Zhuge behind.

Bam!

The door closed.

The State Preceptor set up a soundproof barrier, once again sat on the dragon throne, and looked down at the Martial Marquis Zhuge.

The face of Martial Marquis Zhuge changed and he hurriedly said, "Ancestor, be cautious not to be overheard."

"No worries!"

The State Preceptor waved his hand and asked, "How is the progress?"

"Alas!"

Martial Marquis Zhuge shook his head and sighed, saying, "Our people have almost searched the entire Great Qin Empire, but we have never found the whereabouts of the emperor."

The State Preceptor frowned and asked, "What about Elder Qin?"

"It's no use either."

"That old bastard is too cautious, our people can't even get close to him."

Martial Marquis Zhuge's brows were filled with vexation,

"The more he acts like this, the more suspicious he becomes."

The State Preceptor sneered coldly.

Martial Marquis Zhuge said helplessly, "Even so, he is a Pseudo God, what can we do to him?"

The State Preceptor lowered his head and pondered.

A moment later.

His eyes flashed with a cold light and he said, "Dragging this on is not good for us, we must confirm the life or death of the emperor as soon as possible."

"What high concept does the Ancestor have?"

Martial Marquis Zhuge asked.

The State Preceptor frowned and said, "I do have a plan in mind, but it's rather radical."

"What plan?"

Martial Marquis Zhuge asked.

The State Preceptor said, "Come closer and listen."

Martial Marquis Zhuge walked over to the State Preceptor, who started to murmur softly.

After listening.

The eyes of Martial Marquis Zhuge lit up, he was silent for a moment, and nodded, "This plan is indeed somewhat radical, but it is also the only way for now."

"As for Qinghai soft jade, I'll personally go to the Sea of Samsara to find it, and I'll leave the rest to you."

"Remember, it must be flawlessly executed, so Emperor Hong won't notice a thing."

The State Preceptor instructed in a low voice.

"Understood."

Martial Marquis Zhuge nodded.

The State Preceptor waved his hand, the soundproof barrier dissolved, Martial Marquis Zhuge turned and went inside.

As Martial Marquis Zhuge exited the Golden Throne Hall, a sinister-looking man in black approached.

This person was Yan Wei!

The two encountered each other, Yan Wei bowed and said, "Greetings, Marquis."

Martial Marquis Zhuge nodded and glanced at Yan Wei with a contemptuous look, then strode away.

Watching the back of Martial Marquis Zhuge, a cold light also flashed in the depths of Yan Wei's eyes, he then entered the Golden Throne Hall and bowed, "Greetings, State Preceptor."

The State Preceptor asked, "What movement has there been on Qin Feiyang's side?"

These days.

The State Preceptor has constantly ordered Yan Wei to monitor Qin Feiyang near the Bright Sky Palace.

"None."

"These days, the subordinate hasn't seen anyone, nor have Elder Qin and the Commander of the Kylin Army gone to find him."

Yan Wei responded respectfully.

"That little brat, what on earth is he up to? I refuse to believe he is truly just cultivating all the time."

The State Preceptor's brows furrowed tightly.

In his heart, Qin Feiyang was even more troublesome than Emperor Hong.

Emperor Hong, as the son of the previous emperor, and also the second-generation emperor, isn't a fool, but fortunately, Emperor Hong doesn't care about worldly affairs.

Therefore.

The State Preceptor wasn't really concerned.

But Qin Feiyang, he understood.

According to Qin Feiyang's temperament, he would certainly not sit idly by, yet now there is no sign of activity whatsoever.

This made him feel uneasy inside, restless and unsettled.

Yan Wei asked, "Ten days ago, I heard that Qin Feiyang went to the back mountain? What did he go do in the back mountain?"

The State Preceptor said, "I personally investigated, it seemed that Emperor Hong wanted to see him."

"What?"

"Emperor Hong met him personally?"

Yan Wei was surprised.

The State Preceptor frowned and said, "During this time, I have also been puzzled why Emperor Hong would want to meet Qin Feiyang?"

"Didn't you ask?"

Yan Wei said.

"Who do you think Emperor Hong is?"

"He is the biological son of the previous emperor, his strength surpasses even mine, how dare I go ask him about these matters?"

The State Preceptor responded weakly.

Yan Wei's eyes flickered.

"Hold on."

Suddenly.

The State Preceptor's eyes lit up and he said, "I suddenly thought of someone, maybe he can tell me something."

"Who?"

Yan Wei was astonished and puzzled.

"Qin Jun!"

The State Preceptor said.

"Qin Jun?"

Yan Wei was taken aback.

"Qin Jun was Emperor Hong's study companion when he was young."

"This person is loyally devoted to Emperor Hong, and Emperor Hong also takes good care of him, so he's always stayed by Emperor Hong's side."

"The last time I went to meet Emperor Hong, he was also there, and I proactively established a contractual bridge with him."

The State Preceptor laughed.

"He's actually from the same era as Emperor Hong?"

Yan Wei was incredulous and asked, "So isn't his cultivation also very strong?"

"His cultivation is nothing remarkable."

"Nine-Star War Emperor Pinnacle Realm."

"I proactively established a contractual bridge with him purely because he is Emperor Hong's study companion."

The State Preceptor said disdainfully.

Yan Wei smiled wryly and said, "Nine-Star War Emperor Pinnacle Realm is not remarkable? In this world, perhaps only you, sir, would dare to say such a thing."

"You don't need to envy."

"As long as you serve this State Preceptor loyally and thoroughly, you too can reach that level sooner or later."

The State Preceptor said.

Yan Wei was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Subordinate will certainly serve you with utmost loyalty, giving all until death!"

The State Preceptor smiled broadly, evidently completely trusting Yan Wei now.
