The Old Man suddenly jumped up, clearly displeased. "What, am I supposed to use a teleportation talisman?"
Seizi's face darkened completely as he stepped outside. "I'll head to the nearest county town first. I need to send someone back to check."
He wasn't worried about Mo Lao; with his strength at the Golden Core Mid Stage, even if he couldn't win, he could still escape.
The next day, Ning Caichen arrived at Qin Feng's room with dark circles under his eyes.
"Brother Qin, have you thought of a solution?" Ning Caichen asked anxiously.
Qin Feng looked at Ning Caichen and couldn't help but chuckle. "What's wrong? Did you not sleep all night?"
Ning Caichen forced a smile. "How can I sleep when I can't participate in the Provincial Examination?"
He glanced at Qin Feng's spirited face and couldn't help but sigh; this guy really had a carefree attitude.
"Let's go meet Fu Zun and get the documents for the Provincial Examination," Qin Feng said with a smile.
Ning Caichen was taken aback. "Wait, we're going to see Fu Zun? Didn't he tell you to go back?"
Qin Feng replied nonchalantly, "That was what he said yesterday; he didn't say anything today."
Ning Caichen looked confused. "What's the difference? What's the distinction between yesterday and today?"
By then, Qin Feng had already walked out, leaving Ning Caichen no choice but to hurry after him.
At the Yamen, Fu Zun was busy writing a memorial. The news of the Tiger King's death was significant and needed to be reported to the court as soon as possible.
Suddenly, a Yard Guard rushed in. "Sir, there are two Xiu Cai outside who wish to see you."
Fu Zun paused for a moment, then looked at his Advisor. "Go check what's going on. If there's nothing urgent, handle it yourself."
The Advisor nodded in agreement and followed the Yard Guard to the entrance of the Yamen.
Upon seeing Qin Feng and Ning Caichen, the Advisor was startled for a moment before frowning. "What are you two doing here? Why haven't you gone back?"
Qin Feng smiled. "Sir, we're not going back; we want to participate in the Provincial Examination."
The Advisor's expression turned displeased. At that moment, Qin Feng casually remarked, "Isn't Seizi no longer with Qingshan Mansion?"
"How did you know?" The Advisor exclaimed in surprise.
Qin Feng chuckled lightly. "With such a big commotion, everyone knows that Zi Mansion was attacked. I heard it from others."
Ning Caichen glanced at Qin Feng in astonishment. How come he hadn't heard about this? Hadn't they just come from the Yamen? Where did he get this information?
But he also knew that this was not the time to ask such questions. The Advisor furrowed his brows; how did he know that Seizi was not in the city? This kid was a bit mysterious.
"Come with me to see Fu Zun," the Advisor said after a moment of thought. He felt that Qin Feng was extraordinary, and it would be good to establish a favorable connection.
"Thank you, my lord," Qin Feng replied with a respectful gesture.
The Advisor led the two of them to the outside of a room. "Wait here for a moment; I will go and make an announcement." With that, he hurriedly pushed the door open and walked inside.
Ning Caichen expressed his concern, "Brother Qin, do you think this will work out?"
"Ning Brother, you worry too much. As a Fu Zun, he can give some face to the Zhen Nan Wang Fu, but regarding the Keju matter, I believe Fu Zun will not allow any disorder," Qin Feng said, a glimmer of unusual light flashing in his eyes as he spoke loudly.
"Well said." Suddenly, the door swung open, and a middle-aged man dressed in an Official Robe, exuding an air of authority, stepped out. The Advisor followed closely behind him.
Qin Feng realized that this was Fu Zun. He stepped forward and bowed respectfully to greet the Lord of the Manor. Ning Caichen was startled and hurriedly followed suit.
