She was well aware that the situation in the Qin State was becoming increasingly chaotic, with various factions stirring and hidden currents flowing beneath the surface. Although Yan Yu Ge remained an outsider, how could it possibly remain unscathed amidst such turmoil?
Zheng Linglong pondered where Yan Yu Ge would ultimately head. Deep within Kuang Dao Men, Kuang Dao Lao Zu Yan Xingyun had heard of the enmity between Ye Family Ancestor and Wan Jian Zong, as well as Ye Family Ancestor's slaughter of Chen Canghai's people. His gaze was profound, lost in thought.
After a long while, he spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of steadiness and authority: "Currently, Ye Family Ancestor and Wan Jian Zong have forged an irreconcilable hatred, and they have also incurred enmity with Chen Canghai's people. It is certain that these two forces will not easily let things rest. I have been in conflict with Sword Madman for many years, yet I have always managed to take that crucial step forward."
Listening to Yan Xingyun's words, Wan Xiaoyao, the leader of Kuang Dao Men, contemplated deeply. He understood that the step mentioned by Ancestor Ye referred to Feng Wang Jing, a realm that countless martial artists yearned for but found difficult to attain. Though there were many Dukes in the world, only a rare few could step into Feng Wang Jing.
Yan Xingyun continued: "Recently, during my closed-door training, I have managed to fully take that step forward, albeit only half a step away from it." Upon hearing this, Wan Xiaoyao felt a surge of joy within him; he understood what this implied. He quickly asked: "Ancestor Ye, does this mean you are already half a step into Feng Wang Jing?"
Yan Xingyun nodded slightly, his expression revealing a blend of calmness and confidence: "Indeed, though I am only half a step in, it is still far superior to the Peak of Marquis. If Ye Family Ancestor can successfully fend off the alliance between Wan Jian Zong and Chen Canghai's people this time, then Kuang Dao Men will ally with Ye Family Ancestor to face the impending storm together."
Upon hearing this, Wan Xiaoyao silently nodded in agreement; he knew this was a decision made after careful consideration by Ancestor Ye. He respectfully responded: "Ancestor Ye is wise; Kuang Dao Men will certainly support your decisions wholeheartedly."
Within the grand Tianfeng County Prince's Mansion, Chen Canghai was furious, resembling an enraged lion with fiery red eyes that seemed capable of spitting flames. With a wave of his hand, precious jade artifacts on the table were instantly reduced to powder, scattering across the floor and glinting coldly in contrast to his twisted face filled with rage.
"Qian Youfeng is useless!" Chen Canghai's voice thundered through the vast hall like rolling thunder. His tone brimmed with endless anger and resentment; how could he not deal with someone as insignificant as Ye Family Ancestor from a remote border town? And he had even been killed by that brat Ye Xingchen! What a disgrace!
The nine great generals standing at attention exchanged glances filled with fear and helplessness. They were acutely aware of the Duke's temper; at this moment, none dared to approach him for advice and could only stand silently, waiting for the storm to pass.
After a long while, when Chen Canghai had vented enough of his fury, one person at the forefront finally mustered up the courage to step forward cautiously and advised: "Duke need not be so enraged; surely Ye Xingchen must have encountered some fortuitous event that greatly enhanced his strength. But if I take action, I will surely extract his soul and refine his essence to appease your anger!"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze toward the speaker—none other than Chen Canghai's most trusted first general Li Feixiong. He was robust in stature and exuded an imposing aura; his cultivation at Peak of Marquis was indeed awe-inspiring.
Years ago, he had been a mountain bandit but was later subdued by Chen Canghai due to his exceptional talent and was taken under Chen Canghai’s wing for careful guidance. In just three hundred years, he had transformed from an ordinary bandit into a powerful Peak of Marquis warrior and had become a pillar within Tianfeng County Prince's Mansion.
At this moment, although Li Feixiong spoke with determination, there was an imperceptible chill flickering in his eyes. He understood the Duke’s fury towards Ye Xingchen and knew that his current stance would determine his standing in the Duke’s heart.
Thus, he had to go all out to eliminate Ye Xingchen—the thorn in their side—to demonstrate his loyalty and strength.
Listening to Li Feixiong's words eased some of Chen Canghai's anger. He cast a cold glance at Li Feixiong and said: "Very well! I will give you another chance; you must capture Ye Xingchen and bring him before me! I want to personally extract his soul and refine his essence to relieve my pent-up hatred!"
With that said, Chen Canghai waved his hand dramatically and strode out of the hall. The nine great generals remained rooted in place, exchanging glances as they silently celebrated having escaped this calamity. Meanwhile, Li Feixiong clenched his fists tightly, determination gleaming in his eyes; he knew that a storm targeting Ye Xingchen was about to unfold.
