Chapter 197 Yongfu Meets Qin Wu
The Divine Martial King's Palace.
"Your Highness, Eunuch Yongfu has arrived."
Yu Shu entered the study to report to Qin Wu.
"Let him in!"
Qin Wu didn't even raise his head, but simply gave a brief instruction.
Upon receiving Qin Wu's instructions, Yu Shu immediately withdrew and returned shortly afterward with Eunuch Yongfu.
The two men were carrying several boxes for the other group.
The group put down the boxes and immediately left the study. They all knew that Eunuch Yongfu had brought so many things with him because he had important matters to discuss, which was not something they could listen to.
"This old servant greets the Ninth Prince."
Yongfu bowed to Qin Wu.
"Get up! Sit down!"
Qin Wu put down the book in his hand and said calmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yongfu got up and then sat down to the side.
"Your Highness, this old servant has brought you some things this time. These boxes contain information about the history of the continent and the immortal sects that His Majesty has collected over the past few years."
"According to the information from the Imperial Shadow Guard, the Immortal Sect may have sent people into our Eastern Qin again."
After Yongfu sat down, he explained the purpose of his visit.
"The Immortal Sect is here again? Do you know what they want? What is the strength of the people who came?"
Qin Wu showed no change in expression, and his voice remained calm.
"It's unclear what they're here for, or what their strength is. The Imperial Shadow Guards don't dare to investigate too closely. However, they have secret connections with the six major clans. Over the past six years, they have secretly helped the six major clans cultivate a total of twelve Grandmaster-level experts."
Grandpa Yongfu explained the situation of the Immortal Sect and the six major clans.
In fact, this was also indirectly telling Qin Wu that the Immortal Sect was probably cultivating six major clans to compete with the royal family.
"Twelve Grandmasters, that's quite a generous gesture, but I wonder how strong they are."
Qin Wu sneered.
After hearing what Eunuch Yongfu said, how could he not understand what the Immortal Sect was going to do?
However, he was not afraid. At present, his strength might not be a match for the entire Immortal Sect, but it was impossible for the Immortal Sect to kill him.
His year was not wasted. He not only mastered the Wind Domain to a profound level, but also transformed spatial abilities into his own essence and integrated them into his own body. He also mastered the Spatial Domain.
He wanted to escape, and no one could stop him.
As long as they can't capture him, the Immortal Sect won't dare to act recklessly. Otherwise, a powerful terrestrial immortal hiding in the shadows to assassinate someone is not something that just anyone can withstand.
The Immortal Sect would never dare to make a move against Eastern Qin unless they were absolutely certain they could capture him.
Of course, he wouldn't underestimate the Immortal Sect either.
After all, this is a transcendent force that controls the entire Central Continent, and it has existed for far too long.
His depth of knowledge and experience is beyond my reach.
However, he does not intend to confront the Immortal Sect head-on now; he only needs to make the Immortal Sect wary of him.
If he can stall for some time, his subordinates will be able to break through one after another, and sooner or later he will have the strength to contend with the Immortal Sect.
“Your Highness, according to our investigation, those twelve people are all at the early stage of the Grandmaster realm. Although their strength is at the bottom among the Grandmaster realm, their large number makes them a force to be reckoned with.”
Seeing that Qin Wu didn't care at all, Eunuch Yongfu could only helplessly remind him.
"A lot of them? So what? Unless the twelve of them stay together forever, killing them would be incredibly easy. Don't worry about them. But the Immortal Sect will try to find their location."
"I will be going to war soon after I leave this seclusion. Before I go, I will give them a warning."
Qin Wu remained unconcerned; in his view, there was little difference between twelve Grandmasters and twelve Grandmasters.
The only people he feared were those from the Immortal Sect. He worried that if he led his troops into battle, they might make some underhanded moves.
Therefore, these hidden dangers must be resolved before he sets out on his campaign, lest he be fighting on the front lines while his own backyard catches fire.
What use would it be if he fought with all his might at that time?
"Yes, the Imperial Shadow Guard will investigate with all their might."
Grandfather Yongfu understood Qin Wu's meaning and knew why Qin Wu had come out of the pass this time.
The Eastern Qin had already begun preparations a year ago, and was just waiting for Qin Wu to emerge from the pass.
This is Dong Qin's first naval battle and its first attempt to explore the Western Sea; absolutely no problems can be allowed to occur.
He had heard that the ocean contained countless resources, and if they succeeded this time, the strength of Dong Qin would receive a terrifying boost.
Of course, this is just hearsay, and no one knows whether it's true or not.
"Hmm, is there anything else?"
Qin Wu nodded and then asked.
"Your Highness, you must have heard about the matter of Western Zhou. We suspect that Western Zhou dared to do this because there may be the support of the Immortal Sect behind it. Otherwise, how could Western Zhou dare to do this with its current strength?"
"The negotiations between the Western Zhou and us have taken too long this time. I wonder if Your Highness would be willing to intervene?"
Yongfu then brought up the matter of negotiating with the Western Zhou.
This was also what the Emperor of Eastern Qin had instructed him to do before he left the palace, to see if Qin Wu was willing to handle the matter.
"You expect me to handle something like this?"
Qin Wu looked coldly at Eunuch Yongfu.
There are specific people in charge of the negotiations between the two countries, and he doesn't want to get involved.
In his view, the Western Zhou were nothing but clowns, and it was just not the right time to deal with them yet.
He didn't want to waste time on this.
"Yes, this old servant understands. This old servant will take his leave now."
Once Eunuch Yongfu understood Qin Wu's meaning, he said no more and took his leave before returning to the palace with his entourage.
After Yongfu left.
"Yu Shu, send a message to the border, tell them to get involved and put some pressure on Western Zhou."
After giving his instructions, Qin Wu stopped paying attention to the negotiations with the Western Zhou.
He has more important things to deal with now.
The Zhenxi Army has already sent over all the information; he needs to understand their situation first.
It will save some time once we get there, and if there's anything we're lacking, he can easily coordinate it now that he's in the capital.
To avoid any problems later on, which would delay the deployment of troops.
After all, they can't go to sea anytime. Once the safe period has passed, even with their powerful warships, the danger will be great.
He didn't want to take his soldiers on a dangerous mission.
Human strength has its limits, and even a terrestrial deity like him wouldn't dare say he'd be 100% safe from natural disasters.
Especially the Western Sea, a place that has never been explored before.
Furthermore, in recent years, through continuous investigations by the Zhenxi Army, it has been discovered that powerful sea monsters still exist in the ocean.
Those sea monsters are quite powerful.
They even encountered the most powerful sea beasts that had reached the Grandmaster realm, and this was still on the edge of the Western Sea.
Therefore, he must consider all potential crises in advance.
Time passes day by day.
Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
News came from the palace again: the Immortal Sect's whereabouts had been found; they were hiding among the clans.
It seems the He clan has some kind of scheme.
