Nie Rong forced a bitter smile; indeed, it was a den of tigers and dragons.
"Can I not go?" he sighed. "This time, it's an imperial decree. Disobeying it could cost me my head."
Qin Feng felt somewhat speechless; this was truly unfortunate. However, it also indicated that Nie Feng indeed had talent, otherwise, the emperor wouldn't place such importance on him.
"Then let's set off together," Qin Feng nodded in agreement.
Nie Rong lowered his voice, reminding him, "If anything happens, you can come to me. And whatever you do, don't join any of the princes' factions. Don't easily take sides."
Qin Feng smiled at Nie Shu. "I understand."
With that, Nie Rong let out a sigh of relief. He was worried that Qin Feng might act rashly and make hasty decisions.
Meanwhile, Nie Xiaoqian was quietly inquiring about Qin Feng from Qin Wan'er, becoming more astonished with each piece of information she gathered.
Not only was Qin Feng from Jie Yuan, but he also possessed swordsmanship skills—capable in both literature and martial arts. He perfectly matched the image of her dream lover in Nie Xiaoqian's heart.
Her cheeks flushed crimson as she noticed Qin Wan'er’s satisfaction with her brother, despite her young age.
Little Maid was nearby, exclaiming in surprise, "Wow, Miss! Your fiancé is actually this impressive!"
This time, Nie Xiaoqian did not stop Little Maid; instead, she continued chatting with Qin Wan'er, and the two grew even closer.
In the Zhenbei Wangfu, Zhenbei Wang stared grimly at the two shattered Jade Tokens in his hand. They belonged to Zi and Jin Shu and contained a fragment of their souls.
When a Jade Token shatters, the person dies.
"Who killed them?" Zhenbei Wang roared, unleashing a terrifying aura.
Everyone in the Zhenbei Wangfu was pressed to the ground by this overwhelming force, fearfully gazing toward the center of the estate.
This aura clearly indicated that Zhenbei Wang was also a powerhouse of the Yuan Shen Realm.
After a long moment, the oppressive energy began to dissipate. By now, Zhen Nan Wang had calmed down.
Zhenbei Wang's figure appeared on the rooftop of the estate, his gaze fixed toward Guobei County as he spoke coldly, "Black Mountain Old Demon, is it you?" His tone was chillingly frigid.
Jin Shu was a strong figure of the Yuan Shen Realm; aside from Black Mountain Old Demon, he truly couldn't think of anyone else capable of killing him.
After all, this was the territory of the Black Mountain Old Demon.
Zhenbei Wang's expression was grim, his eyes flickering with light. The death of Jin Shu had dealt a heavy blow to the Zhenbei Wangfu. With only two Yuan Shen Realm experts in the entire Zhenbei Wangfu, this incident had completely disrupted his plans.
"Black Mountain Old Demon, you will pay for this," Zhenbei Wang gritted his teeth in anger. It seemed he had no choice but to resort to that thing. He sighed deeply, feeling helpless.
He flipped his hand, revealing a jade vial; it contained a Po Jing Dan. However, it came with a significant drawback: using it to break through to the Yuan Shen Realm would shorten his lifespan and prevent him from ever breaking through to that realm.
Zhenbei Wang's eyes flickered as he considered who to use it on. He needed to ensure that the Zhenbei Wangfu had two Yuan Shen experts stationed there. Casting a cold glance in the direction of Guobei County, he vanished from sight, vowing to confront the Black Mountain Old Demon sooner or later.
At that moment, the Black Mountain Old Demon was unaware that he had taken the blame for Qin Feng. However, with Qin Feng now joining Black Mountain, it could be seen as a fortunate turn of events.
In Jinhua Prefecture, Nie Rong seemed well-prepared; there was a horse-drawn carriage and a dozen guards ready for a light journey. Qin Feng remained seated in his Ox Cart while Nie Xiaoqian rejected Nie Rong's carriage and instead climbed onto the Ox Cart.
Zhu Fang joined Nie Rong in the carriage, stating that it was a good opportunity to discuss literature. The space inside the Ox Cart was still ample; with Qin Wan'er, Zhu Ling, Nie Xiaoqian, and a Little Maid present, it didn’t feel cramped at all.
As Qin Feng observed their route ahead, he squinted; this path would take them through Guobei County. Was this when Nie Xiaoqian met her demise? He couldn’t help but feel curious about what had happened to Nie Xiaoqian and her companions—apparently even Nie Rong had perished.
In Wangsi City, within a mansion gifted by the Black Mountain Old Demon to Qin Feng, the Black Mountain Old Demon was drinking with Qin Feng when he mentioned an invitation from the Dongting Lake Dragon Lord. "Are you interested in taking a look?"
Qin Feng was taken aback. "Dongting Lake Dragon Lord? Do you have ties with him?"
The Black Mountain Old Demon shook his head dismissively. "Not much of a connection; I just know him. Mainly because that Dragon Lord enjoys poetry and often invites poets during exam times. The top performers receive rewards—it's quite extravagant; I've only attended once."
Qin Feng’s eyes lit up with interest. "I’ve never seen a True Dragon before."
The Black Mountain Old Demon scoffed dismissively. "True Dragon? There are no True Dragons left in this realm—just Jiao Long."
"Isn't there a True Dragon overseas?" Qin Feng asked, puzzled.
"Who told you that? The ones overseas are also Jiao Long, just with a stronger dragon bloodline," Black Mountain Old Demon shook his head.
Coming back to his senses, Black Mountain Old Demon tossed a golden invitation onto the table. "Little brother, since you want it, take it. But be careful of that old dragon; he's quite cunning."
Qin Feng smiled as he picked up the invitation. Glancing at me, he said, "It's still early; no need to rush."
Black Mountain Old Demon nodded, knowing Qin Feng's strength and not feeling worried.
"By the way, there's one more thing. We at Black Mountain want to expand. Which direction should we go?" Black Mountain Old Demon asked Qin Feng.
"Huh?" Qin Feng was taken aback. "Big brother, have you forgotten your advantages?"
"What advantages?" the old demon asked in confusion.
"Difu," Qin Feng replied. "You are already a spirit of the Yin Realm and control Wangsi City. Why go to the Yang Realm?"
Hearing this, Black Mountain Old Demon let out a bitter laugh. "Little brother, do you think I don't want to develop in the Yin Realm? But with two major Lu Pan and Cui Pan avatars around, it's tough."
Qin Feng chuckled. "You might not have been their match before, but what about now with me? I won't say we can defeat them outright, but at least we can hold our ground."
"If we can occupy half of Difu, there’s great potential."
Black Mountain Old Demon's eyes lit up. "Yes! Now they also have two strong ones in the Yuan Shen Realm, which is not inferior to two Lu Pan and Cui Pan."
"Plus, we can win over these two. They probably don’t want to stay here anymore. If we can get rid of those two Lu Pan and Cui Pan, they might be useful after ascending," Qin Feng suggested slowly.
Black Mountain Old Demon became excited. "Haha! Little brother, your mind works well! Why didn't I think of that? I’ve been focused on keeping our distance."
Qin Feng smiled. "Then big brother needs to test them out first. Don’t worry; I'll be right behind you."
Black Mountain Old Demon nodded repeatedly. "Alright! I'll give it a try." With that, he hurried off eagerly.
Qin Feng watched Black Mountain Old Demon’s retreating figure and couldn’t help but chuckle. For some reason, he felt that this old demon was a bit simple-minded and not as ruthless as he had been described.
At that moment, Qin Feng and Nie Rong had already arrived at Guobei County.
Nie Xiaoqian lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the still peaceful Guobei County, revealing a look of surprise.
