Translator: 549690339

Emperor Qi and Guo Rongshan looked upwards upon hearing the sound, as four figures descended from the sky.

A young man, with a precious sword hanging at his waist, carrying the crown prince; another person—a middle-aged man—with a sword at his side as well, carrying the crown prince’s attendant eunuch.

Emperor Qi was instantly overjoyed and abruptly stood up.

The highly anticipated masters had finally arrived.

“Greetings to the masters!”

Emperor Qi’s demeanor was very humble, almost moved to tears with excitement.

But Guo Rongshan’s heart sank, the masters had actually flown here, yet his own grandson Xu Yan, was still unable to fly using his qi.

However, his grandson’s master was a peerless master, he ought to be no less capable, right?

He also hurriedly stood up and followed with a salute.

Xie Lingfeng’s gaze was sharp, without any nonsense, he directly asked, “Where is the troublemaker?”

Emperor Qi was taken aback, the troublemaker?

Xu Yan?!

Guo Rongshan’s heart twitched, this master’s tone was unfriendly, could it be that there was some feud with Xu Yan, or Xu Yan’s master?

His heart could not help but feel uneasy.

“Guo Rongshan, where is your grandson?”

At this moment, Emperor Qi straightened his back and no longer addressed him as brother, calling him by his name instead.

Guo Rongshan thought for a moment, his grandson was in Donghe County, practicing with his master. If these martial artists were to look there, perhaps Xu Yan’s master could deal with them.

“He’s in Donghe County!”

He did not conceal the fact, standing straight and even glancing sideways at Emperor Qi.

Emperor Qi’s heart skipped a beat. The outcome of this confrontation had yet to be determined. If, in the end, the two masters present were unable to prevail, wouldn’t that be disastrous?

He immediately put on a smile and said, “Brother Guo, since the master is seeking your grandson, I dare not conceal the truth.”

Upon hearing that Xue Wuxin was in Donghe County, Xie Lingfeng immediately asked, “In which direction is Donghe County?”

The crown prince straightened his back and spoke, “Master, there’s no need for you to go in person. Just let someone send a message for him to come to the capital city and pay respects to the master.”

While speaking, he gestured towards Guo Rongshan and commanded, “Lord Guo, will you not quickly send word to your grandson, to have him hurry to the capital city to pay respects to the master?”

Guo Rongshan squinted at the crown prince, thinking the young man needed to be disciplined.

The crown prince felt unease under his gaze, but the thought of having the support of a master immediately made him glare back fiercely.

Xie Lingfeng was somewhat baffled, looking at Guo Rongshan with a puzzled expression.

“Your grandson?”

Xue Wuxin is someone’s grandson now?

“Indeed, may I know why the master is looking for my grandson?”

Guo Rongshan nodded and asked.

Xie Lingfeng blinked, sensing that there was something amiss about the situation.

Looking at Hu Shan, he communicated telepathically, “How old is Xue Wuxin? Could he be from the Border Wilderness?”

Hu Shan was also puzzled and replied, “Xue Wuxin should be no younger than me. As for the possibility of him moving from the Border Wilderness to the Inner Domain, it’s absolutely impossible. The mountain range near the Inner Domain is infested with fierce beasts. Without the strength of at least a fourth or fifth rank, it’s impossible to cross!”

“So what’s going on here?”

Xie Lingfeng had never imagined that a martial artist would emerge from the Wasteland.

Hu Shan pondered for a moment and said, “Perhaps Xue Wuxin has changed his ways. On the surface, he is the grandson of this man, but in reality, he subtly controls him, helping him to maintain a grip on Qi Country’s imperial court while secretly consuming the essence and blood of others, avoiding creating greater chaos.”

“To evade our pursuit?”

“If it were someone else who came to the Border Wilderness and found no massacre or blood sacrifice, they wouldn’t continue the investigation and would return to the Inner Domain.”

Hu Shan analyzed.

Xie Lingfeng felt the reasoning was sound. Having suffered such a loss in the Inner Domain, Xue Wuxin would want to keep a low profile upon first escaping to the Border Wilderness to avoid being pursued by Inner Realm Martial Artists.

In order to hide his identity, he was actually willing to become someone’s grandson?

He had underestimated Xue Wuxin’s patience and forbearance.

Thinking this, Xie Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and said to Guo Rongshan, “Send a message to your grandson, telling him to come to the capital city for a meeting, and let him know he can’t hide.”

“Certainly!”

Guo Rongshan agreed without hesitation, nodding in response.

This matter was no longer something he could influence or resolve. He would inform his grandson of the situation, and if truly no match, he would tell his grandson to flee!

“Your Majesty, I request to be excused!”

Guo Rongshan saluted Emperor Qi.

“My loyal subject, take care!”

Emperor Qi was quite pleased inside.

As Guo Rongshan left, Emperor Qi commanded a grand feast to be prepared to entertain Xie Lingfeng and the other.

But Xie Lingfeng refused, only requesting a quiet residence instead.

Emperor Qi readily agreed.

He personally escorted Xie Lingfeng and his companion to a secluded residence within the royal palace. Upon returning to his study, his entire demeanor changed, the imperial majesty was once again present.

“Order issued: keep the Qi King’s residence under covert surveillance, and prepare to take control of the Divine Might Army.”

Emperor Qi commanded.

“Father, just confiscate Guo Rongshan’s property now!”

The crown prince said.

“Foolish!”

Emperor Qi glared at his eldest son and said, “The outcome has not been decided, what’s the rush? What if it ends in a draw? What if we lose? You need to be prudent, don’t be impatient!”

“Yes, yes, Father is right!”

The crown prince admitted his fault, but was thoroughly displeased with his father, planning to ingratiate himself with the master to gain support for his claim to the throne of Qi Country.

His father was old and muddled, it was time for him to be pushed aside.

…

In Yunshan County, Li Xuan was refining the cultivation technique beyond the Innate Realm.

It would connect seamlessly with the Innate Realm, and the strength of this realm remained immensely powerful, surpassing the Great Grandmasters of the Inner Realm Martial Dao.

On this day, a message from the capital city reached Donghe County.

Martial Artists had arrived in the capital!

Xu Yan was commanded to go to the capital to see them!

It seemed the visitors bore ill intentions!
