Chapter 199 The Schemes and Plans of the Immortal Sect Members
The Divine Martial King's Palace.
study.
Liu Feng is reporting to Qin Wu what is happening in the palace.
Especially the matter of that immortal sect member threatening the Emperor of Eastern Qin.
Qin Wu truly hadn't expected that the people from this Immortal Sect would be so arrogant, coming to the capital of Eastern Qin to threaten the emperor of Eastern Qin. This showed that they didn't take the entire Eastern Qin region seriously.
It's also a slap in the face to the entire Eastern Qin.
"How arrogant! Has he been high and mighty for too long, thinking he's invincible?"
Qin Wu sneered after hearing Liu Feng's report.
He had never seen such an arrogant person.
"Have you sent someone to follow them?"
Qin Wu asked with a wicked smile.
"We've already sent people to follow them secretly."
The wind blew back.
“Alright, find their hiding place. Tonight, you can go and teach them a lesson so they understand that this is the capital of Dongqin, not their immortal sect, and it's not their place to act recklessly.”
Qin Wu directly gave orders to Liu Feng.
Since these people are so arrogant, let's see if they have the right to be so.
"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."
Liu Feng accepted the order and immediately withdrew.
After leaving the palace, the middle-aged man went straight back to his residence without making much effort to conceal his whereabouts.
It was as if they weren't worried at all that anyone would dare to lay a hand on them.
In fact, he was confident that no one in this secular world could rival them.
The weakest among them this time had reached the late stage of the Grandmaster realm.
There are even grandmasters who have grasped the essence of power.
Moreover, according to their investigation, the strongest person in the secular world right now is the Eastern Qin Divine Martial King, but he is only at the late stage to peak of the Grandmaster realm.
We are no match for them at all.
So they didn't even realize they were being followed.
After following them to a mansion, the guards kept watch for a while before sending the message back.
The middle-aged man entered the mansion and went straight to the main hall.
At this moment, everyone sitting in the main hall looked at the middle-aged man.
"Hao Jian, what did the Emperor of Dongqin say?"
The white-haired man sitting at the head of the table asked a question.
"Elder Liu Mang, the Emperor of Dong Qin said... I gave him five days. If he doesn't give us an answer after five days, then we can directly cause him trouble."
After explaining the situation in the palace, Hao Jian also revealed his plans.
He wanted to use this to cause trouble for the Emperor of Eastern Qin.
“Yes, this is a good opportunity to teach the Emperor of Dongqin a lesson and let him understand what he should and shouldn’t do.”
Elder Liu Mang agreed with Hao Jian's approach.
They were sent here to warn the Emperor of Eastern Qin that there are some things that absolutely cannot be done.
Another measure is to support the clans and allow them to restrict the development of Eastern Qin. We must not allow Eastern Qin to continue developing in this way.
"Elder Liu Mang, what are we supposed to do?"
A deacon sitting at the lower end of the table asked.
"Let's wait a bit. We'll talk about the rest in five days. By the way, have you investigated the matter of that Divine Martial King? I suspect he has already grasped the essence of power. Such a person should never exist in the mortal world."
Elder Liu Mang did not intend to take action in the next few days; for him, five days was not enough time to accomplish anything.
"The investigation is still ongoing. This Divine Martial King is very mysterious. He had been in seclusion for a long time, and no one knows the specifics. Everyone who knew his strength is dead."
“We also tried to infiltrate the Divine Martial King’s Mansion to investigate, but the guards there were too tight, and we were unable to get in.”
The deacon who had spoken earlier shook his head.
"Strict security? So strict that even a late-stage Grandmaster like you can't infiltrate?"
Upon hearing the steward's words, Elder Liu Mang immediately became displeased. He couldn't believe that they couldn't infiltrate even a secular royal mansion; weren't they too useless?
"Yes, there are several auras in the Divine Martial King's Mansion that are no weaker than ours. If we force our way in, it will be impossible for us to leave unscathed."
The steward was helpless. He was also a late-stage Grandmaster and believed that few people in the mortal world could rival him, but he felt a great threat in the Divine Martial Royal Palace.
He had a feeling that if he forced his way in, he might have to stay in the Divine Martial King's Mansion.
"Is the Divine Martial Royal Palace really that powerful? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Elder Liu Mang was still somewhat skeptical.
"There's no mistake. I've been observing for several days now, and this is the feeling I get. It's as if there's some great terror in the Divine Martial King's Mansion."
The deacon shook his head. Although he didn't want to admit it, it was the truth, an undeniable truth.
"It seems that the Divine Martial King's Mansion is really not simple. It's alright, I'll find some time to investigate it myself. I don't believe they can keep me here."
Although Elder Liu Mang was still somewhat skeptical, he couldn't let a deacon at the late Grandmaster level take such a risk.
Even in their immortal sect, it's not easy to cultivate a powerhouse at the late Grandmaster level.
If there are any losses, he won't be able to explain it when he goes back.
Hearing Elder Liu Mang's words, the steward finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was prevented from sneaking into the Divine Martial King's Mansion.
"By the way, Deacon Xia Liu, I heard that a large army is being assembled in the western border of Eastern Qin, and steel warships have appeared. Have you investigated this matter?"
Elder Liu Mang then inquired about another deacon.
"They have indeed assembled hundreds of thousands of troops and about 30 steel warships, but it's unclear what they're planning. They say they're going to war, but those warships, which are tens of meters long, can't even get inland. There's no river inland that can accommodate such warships."
"But even if we don't start a war, we've gathered hundreds of thousands of troops. I have absolutely no idea what Eastern Qin is up to."
The steward, known as Xia Liu, said that he really couldn't understand what Dong Qin was trying to do.
After all, even though they are a celestial sect that controls the entire Central Continent, they have never been to sea and do not know the true situation overseas.
Even in the records of the Immortal Sect, they were only advised not to go to sea lightly; there were almost no other records.
Of course, it's also possible that he wasn't qualified to read the records that were actually about overseas.
Within the Immortal Sect, he was merely an outer sect steward, with limited authority.
After hearing Deacon Xia Liu's report, Elder Liu Mang fell silent. He spent most of his time cultivating and hadn't paid much attention to things overseas.
However, he knew that there were other continents overseas, but it was very difficult to go to other continents, as they were forbidden from going to sea as members of the outer sect.
Therefore, he did not learn about things overseas.
He really couldn't understand Dong Qin's actions.
"Keep an eye on them and see what they're up to. Report any news immediately."
Unable to understand, Elder Liu Mang could only have his men keep an eye on the situation in the Western Territory. Once the Eastern Qin began their operation, he would know what they were up to.
"Don't worry, Elder. The clan has been keeping an eye on things. We'll get news if there's any unusual activity in the Western Region."
Xia Liu had already made arrangements, so he wasn't worried.
"Elder, I suddenly thought of something. When I went to the palace today, I found that the two eunuchs beside the Emperor of Dongqin were also mid-stage Grandmasters. I suspect that the Dongqin royal family may have hidden Grandmasters."
Just then, Hao Jian suddenly spoke up. He had been so focused on his own plan that he had almost forgotten about this matter, but now he suddenly remembered.
"It seems the Eastern Qin royal family is hiding its strength very well! They are even more powerful than we imagined. Our clan currently only has six Grandmaster-level experts at the early stage. It will be difficult to rely on them to contend with the Eastern Qin royal family. Let's find out how many Grandmaster-level experts the Eastern Qin royal family is hiding so we can make arrangements."
"Also, send a message to the sect and ask them to send some more Breakthrough Pills. We need to cultivate some Grandmaster-level experts for the clan. We can't stay in Dongqin Capital for long."
Elder Liu Mang thought about it for a while before making a decision.
He didn't want to stay here for long; the cultivation speed here was too slow, and he wanted to break through to the inner sect as soon as possible.
The only way now is to make the clan stronger so that he can return to the sect as soon as possible.
"Elder Liu Mang, won't the sect blame us for doing this?"
Hao Jian was somewhat worried, after all, even in their Immortal Sect, the Breakthrough Pill was considered precious, and the number they could refine each year was not much, not even enough for all the sect's disciples.
"Blame me? In the current Eastern Qin, there are no restrictions. If problems arise, who will be responsible? You, or me?"
Elder Liu Mang was already somewhat angry. In his view, it was just a mid-grade breakthrough pill. As long as it could get them back sooner, what did it matter if they used it? He didn't need it now anyway.
As for the fact that there aren't enough disciples, what does that have to do with him? At worst, it just means he'll break through a year later. If someone is truly talented, they can break through without the Breakthrough Pill.
After hearing Elder Liu Mang's words, everyone fell silent.
Compared to making Dong Qi stronger, these are just some Breakthrough Pills. None of the people present need them, and they wouldn't care if they took them all out.
If Dong Qin truly becomes stronger, then they will all be punished. Compared to being punished themselves, the disciples losing a few mid-grade breakthrough pills is not a big deal.
"Since no one has any objections, then send a message to the sect and report the situation in Dongqin. If the higher-ups disagree, and if something goes wrong, we won't be held responsible."
Seeing that no one spoke, Elder Liu Mang made the decision directly.
"Alright, I'll go and send a message to the sect right away."
Hao Jian immediately agreed, and no one else spoke up, and the matter was settled.
They were scheming, but little did they know that a big problem was approaching them.
