The Sword Madman spoke earnestly, his words filled with righteousness. However, the gathered crowd, seasoned and worldly-wise, understood the underlying stakes. This move by the Sword Madman was merely a response to the formidable presence of the Ye Family Ancestor; he sought to avoid conflict and hurriedly came to offer his apologies, hoping to turn hostility into harmony.
Having said that, the Sword Madman waved his hand, and a group of disciples from Wan Jian Zong stepped forward to open a heavy wooden box. Inside lay a dazzling array of treasures, gleaming brilliantly and overwhelming the senses. Even though the Ye Family Ancestor had recently received elixirs from Ye Xingchen Lao Zu, they paled in comparison to what was before them.
Seeing this, the Sword Madman smiled slightly and requested, "Could I trouble Brother Ye Wenhui to inform Ye Xingchen Lao Zu that I, Sword Madman, have come to pay my respects? I hope Ancestor Ye can grant me an audience." His tone was notably courteous.
Ye Wenhui pondered for a moment. Observing the Sword Madman's demeanor, he couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. He knew well that this was all an act; however, he maintained a composed facade. "Oh, Sword Madman, you are too polite," he replied. "Unfortunately, our Ancestor Ye is currently away and it’s uncertain when he will return. Perhaps you could rest here at Ye Family Ancestor for a few days? I will inform you as soon as Ancestor Ye returns."
Upon hearing this, the Sword Madman felt a wave of anxiety wash over him. He understood that if he could not meet Ye Xingchen Lao Zu during this visit, it would weigh heavily on his mind. Yet he kept his composure and replied, "If that is the case, then I shall impose upon you."
What seemed like a storm had calmed down for now. However, everyone present knew that this was merely a temporary peace. The enmity between the Ye Family Ancestor and Wan Jian Zong was far from resolved.
Meanwhile, within Tianfeng Prefecture, an oppressive silence hung in the air as Chen Canghai seethed with rage. His voice thundered like a storm: "A bunch of useless fools! You boast of your bravery in calmer times but fail to deliver when it truly matters!"
That Li Feixiong had sworn he could complete the mission but ended up being slain by the sudden appearance of Ye Gucheng without even laying eyes on Ye Xingchen! Who exactly was this Ye Gucheng? Why had he never heard of such a person?
His words were laced with fury and confusion as he waved his hand sharply. "Bring me those responsible for gathering information on Feng Lei City! Execute them all! Leave no one alive!"
The people below responded immediately, hurrying out while the remaining seven generals turned pale and trembled slightly, fearing they might become collateral damage in Chen Canghai's wrath.
Chen Canghai's gaze burned fiercely as he glared at everyone present, his tone carrying an undeniable authority: "Isn’t he just a half-step King? Even if Ye Xingchen is formidable, there's no way he could reach late-stage King status all at once! How could Tianfeng Prefecture fear him?"
Hearing this, those present were quick-witted enough to catch on to some hints in Chen Canghai's words. They were shocked to realize that the Duke had already reached mid-stage King; such strength would allow them to solidify their position within the Great Qin Dynasty.
Noticing that Chen Canghai's expression had softened slightly, one of the generals mustered his courage and cautiously asked, "Dare I ask, Duke, have you reached mid-stage King?"
Chen Canghai nodded slightly in acknowledgment. This gesture brought joy to the Seven Great Generals; they felt relieved and secretly grateful as they had long viewed Chen Canghai as their pillar of support.
With Chen Canghai growing stronger, it meant they could survive longer in this tumultuous dynasty and solidify their status even further.
Though tension still permeated Tianfeng Prefecture, there was newfound confidence among the people. They knew that as long as Chen Canghai remained, Tianfeng Prefecture would never easily collapse.
