Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne: The Mad Prince

Chapter 237 Jiang Pingle's Accident, Qin Wu's Fury

"Your Highness, something has happened."

The flowing water appeared in front of Qin Wu, directly interrupting his cultivation.

He reported to Qin Wu with a worried expression.

"What's the matter?"

Qin Wu inquired.

For Liushui to be so anxious, this incident must be quite serious; otherwise, given Liushui's track record, he wouldn't act this way.

"Your Highness, news just arrived from the palace that the Princess Consort was attacked while out and about, and is seriously injured and unconscious, her life hanging by a thread."

The report was submitted via a running stream.

As soon as Liu Shui finished speaking, he was thrown away by a terrifying force.

"Tell me, what happened? Who dared to lay a hand on Ping Le?"

Qin Wu's words were filled with anger.

He genuinely didn't expect anyone to dare lay a hand on his wife.

He also seriously injured his wife, leaving her in critical condition.

"We are still investigating the murderers. Those people should all be suicide squads. According to the investigation, they are ostensibly merchants traveling around the country. Our people have arrested all their associates and are investigating the forces behind them."

Liu Shui stabilized his body and returned to kneeling on one knee in front of Qin Wu.

He never expected that someone would dare to attack their mistress.

"Very well, I have been away for several years. Those people have forgotten my methods."

"Send word: Return to the capital."

Qin Wu angrily gave the order.

He wanted to see who was so audacious.

This time, he wants to make everyone understand what the consequences are for daring to challenge the powerful.

"Yes."

Liu Shui accepted the order and left.

The entire Shenwu Island sprang into action immediately under Qin Wu's command.

Liu Shui also relayed the news that Qin Wu was preparing to return to the capital.

When they return this time, blood will flow like rivers, and Liu Feng and his men should be prepared.

The commotion on Shenwu Island immediately alerted the Eleventh Elder.

He immediately went to see Qin Wu.

"Young Wu, what's going on? I heard you're going back to the capital?"

The eleventh elder asked anxiously.

"Yes, I am going back to the capital."

Qin Wu said coldly.

"What happened? Why did you suddenly return to Beijing?"

The eleventh elder was puzzled, but judging from Qin Wu's expression, he knew that something big must have happened.

Otherwise, Qin Wu wouldn't have suddenly decided to return to the capital, especially since Qin Wu usually doesn't smile, but he still gives people a pleasant feeling.

But now it clearly carries a hint of cold killing intent.

"Notify the clan to prepare for the Immortal War! How dare someone attack my queen! This time, I will make those people know that my wrath is not something anyone can withstand."

Qin Wu's words were filled with murderous intent.

Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, the Eleventh Elder knew that something big was about to happen.

Although Qin Wu rarely mentions his queen, he has sent her many treasures he has acquired over the years, which shows how much he cherishes her.

Now someone actually dares to attack his princess, isn't that just courting death?

The eleventh elder was also somewhat angry. He had long ago instructed that Qin Wu's wife be kept in close watch and that nothing should happen to her.

Despite all the precautions, something still happened.

This time, I'm afraid the entire Central Plains will never have peace.

"okay, I get it."

The eleventh elder knew he couldn't stop Qin Wu, so he had no choice but to agree.

He then immediately sent a message to the clan to prepare, and also to the twelve elders to prepare as well.

After all, when Qin Wu goes berserk, he doesn't care about the consequences.

The next day.

Qin Wu led his men directly towards the direction of Eastern Qin.

A few days later, the group arrived in Eastern Qin. Qin Wu did not rest and went directly to the capital.

The news that Qin Wu was returning to the capital also reached the palace.

Upon receiving the news, the Emperor of Eastern Qin knew that something big was about to happen and immediately sought out the Twelve Elders.

"Elder Twelfth, something bad is about to happen this time."

The Emperor of Eastern Qin said helplessly.

"what happened?"

The twelfth elder was somewhat curious.

"Old Ninth has heard the news about my Ninth Daughter-in-law's accident. I just received the news that Old Ninth is already on his way back to Beijing. Judging from the timeline, he should have landed by now."

"The Emperor of Eastern Qin said."

After learning about Jiang Pingle's accident, he guessed that something serious was about to happen.

I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. It's likely that the people from the Divine Martial Prince's Mansion had already spread the news when his daughter-in-law got into trouble.

Given Qin Wu's personality, his return this time is likely to lead to something big.

"What? Wu is back?"

The twelfth elder was also greatly surprised.

He's been having a really tough time lately trying to find the person who assassinated Jiang Pingle.

The original intention was to find the murderer before Qin Wu returned and give Qin Wu an explanation.

After all, this was their oversight; they never expected anyone to dare to attack Jiang Pingle, which led to Jiang Pingle's serious injury and uncertainty about his fate.

The entire Shenfeng Manor is now under martial law, and they don't know Jiang Pingle's specific situation.

Qin Wu is on his way back now, and this time something really big is about to happen.

"Yes, based on the speed of intelligence transmission, they should have already landed. At Lao Jiu's speed, they will arrive in the capital in eight or nine days at most."

The Emperor of Eastern Qin is also having a headache.

Of course, there was more anger than anything else; how could someone dare to attack and kill a royal princess in the Qin capital?

This shows a complete disregard for the Eastern Qin royal family.

This is a challenge to the prestige of the Eastern Qin royal family.

But the police have been investigating for so long and still haven't found out who did it.

If they can't find out the truth before Qin Wu returns, given Qin Wu's personality, he'll probably go berserk and start killing.

Just then, Qin Yiming walked in.

"Elder Twelfth, I just received a message from Elder Eleven, telling us to prepare. It seems the Immortal War will be brought forward."

Qin Yiming said anxiously.

Only after he finished speaking did he notice that the Emperor of Eastern Qin was also there.

"I have met His Majesty."

Qin Yiming quickly bowed.

Now he dares not disrespect the Emperor of Eastern Qin.

After all, the Eastern Qin Emperor was Qin Wu's biological father. If he offended the Eastern Qin Emperor, he probably wouldn't have a good life in the future.

"What? The Immortal War is being moved forward? What's going on?"

The twelfth elder was greatly shocked after hearing this.

This is no joke; if the Immortal War is brought forward, it could cause serious problems.

"The letter said that this was said by the Divine Martial King, instructing the clan to prepare."

Qin Yiming said.

He was also extremely shocked when he saw the news.

He truly hadn't expected that this Divine Martial King would be so angry and so crazy.

We need to start the Immortal War directly.

"Damn it, I knew something big was going to happen. I wonder which stupid force sent someone to kill Wu's wife. Do they think they've lived too long and too well?"

The twelfth elder rubbed his temples and cursed out loud.

Given Qin Wu's strength and personality, many terrestrial immortals will likely perish in this battle.

After all, others might not know Qin Wu's strength, but he certainly did.

Having integrated the realm of artistic conception and cultivated to the ninth realm, he worried that even those ancient relics might not be a match for him.

"Yeah, I don't know which idiot dared to do something like this."

"The situation could have been stable for a while, so why did you have to court death?"

The Emperor of Eastern Qin was also somewhat angry.

The Eastern Qin Dynasty is not fully prepared for this situation yet.

Isn't this just creating trouble for no one?

"Well, what's done is done, so let's make preparations! Your Majesty, you should start making preparations on your end too! Although this was sudden, no one was prepared, and we knew about the situation in advance, so ultimately it's more advantageous for us."

The twelfth elder said helplessly.

"Alright, Elder, I'll go and make preparations now."

The Emperor of Eastern Qin also knew that this was the only way now.

"Yiming, notify the elders and deacons of the other three clans to come over for a meeting."

"Since we're going to war, let's all be prepared and take this opportunity to make the Immortal Sect suffer a great loss."

The twelfth elder continued to give instructions.

"Yes."

Qin Yiming was shocked, but he didn't ask any further questions.

I know that once things have happened, this is the only way.
