Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne: The Mad Prince

Chapter 201 The Immortal Sect Sends People Again

"Your Highness, this is a message sent out by the Immortal Sect."

Liu Feng placed a letter in front of Qin Wu.

Qin Wu took the letter and read its contents at a glance.

After reading it, Qin Wu couldn't help but smile.

"They are not stupid, but so what if they guessed it? What can they do to me?"

Qin Wu revealed a wicked smile.

In his view, as long as the Immortal Sect does not send more than three terrestrial immortals, he has nothing to fear.

The two kinds of intent he possessed were both related to speed, and he believed that there was absolutely no one in the world who was faster than him.

"Your Highness, should we do something?"

Liu Feng inquired.

"No need, just have someone keep an eye on them. Aren't they asking the Immortal Sect for a mid-grade Breakthrough Pill? Once the item arrives, you can go and retrieve it. We can't let our resources go to waste on those good-for-nothings."

Qin Wu smiled wickedly.

In his words, he directly claimed that the Immortal Sect's mid-grade breakthrough pill was his own.

Hearing Liu Feng's name, even the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Thinking to himself, "As expected of their prince, whatever he sets his sights on is his."

"Yes, Liu Ying is personally overseeing it. We'll retrieve the items as soon as they arrive."

Although Liu Feng was somewhat speechless, he remained outwardly calm.

"Well, let's do it!"

"Yushu, come in."

Qin Wu waved his hand to dismiss Liu Feng, then called out to Yu Shu outside the door.

"Your Majesty."

Yu Shu entered the study.

"What have the princess and the others been busy with lately?"

Qin Wu inquired.

These past few days, Jiang Pingle and the other women have been busy all day, and they won't return until late at night.

He was curious about what the girls were busy with.

Upon hearing Qin Wu's question, Yu Shu couldn't help but reveal a strange expression.

Then, her face turned bright red, just like a cooked shrimp.

Qin Wu was stunned for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

He was becoming increasingly curious about what Jiang Pingle and the other girls were doing that could elicit such an expression from Yu Shu.

"What? Is it not my business what the Princess and the others are doing?"

Qin Wu looked at Yu Shu with a half-smile.

"Um... Your Highness, the Princess and the others said they wanted to give you a surprise and asked me not to tell you."

Yu Shu said somewhat embarrassedly.

Thinking about what she had found out, her ears turned bright red.

"Oh? Is that so? Then I'm quite looking forward to it."

Qin Wu looked at Yu Shu with a half-smile.

Looking at the jade book made him feel uneasy.

"Well... well, Your Highness, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

After Yu Shu finished speaking, she hurriedly ran away.

Only Qin Wu remained, laughing loudly. Yu Shu blushed even more when she heard Qin Wu's laughter.

She now truly regrets knowing so much.

The five-day deadline has passed.

The Immortal Sect members did not appear, nor did they go to find the Eastern Qin Emperor, which made the Eastern Qin Emperor somewhat curious. Why didn't such arrogant Immortal Sect members come to him for an explanation? He had made quite a few preparations.

Out of curiosity, the Emperor of Eastern Qin ordered an investigation.

You wouldn't know unless you investigated. Once you did, the Emperor of Dongqin laughed. It turned out that the reason they hadn't come looking for trouble was because they had all been seriously injured.

They are currently in seclusion to heal their wounds.

Upon receiving this news, the Emperor of Eastern Qin immediately guessed who was behind it.

Apart from his audacious ninth son, no one else in the entire Eastern Qin had this ability.

But so what if he guessed it? As long as they don't cause him trouble, even if everyone in the Immortal Sect dies, it has nothing to do with him.

In the following days, the capital city returned to calm.

Because of the emergence of the Divine Martial King, even the clans dared not continue to cause trouble, especially after the Immortal Sect members were seriously injured.

The people of the clan were not fools; they could all guess that this was a warning from the Divine Martial King.

When they contacted the Grandmaster whose family had been killed, they all guessed that it was the Divine Martial King warning them.

If they continue to act up at this point, they fear that one day they might fall asleep and never wake up again.

With that in mind, the clan no longer dared to cause any trouble.

Time passes day by day.

Finally, the Immortal Sect sent people again, this time a total of five outer sect elders.

They were all grandmasters who had grasped the essence of power.

"Liu Mang, is what you said in your letter true?"

The elderly man at the head of the group sat down and immediately asked a question.

"Elder Xia, it's true. If those people hadn't refrained from killing me, I would be dead by now."

Elder Liu Mang wanted to deny it, but such things don't simply disappear just because you deny them.

After all, the group of people who came with him knew about this, and they were almost killed, so it was impossible to keep it a secret.

“Father, it is indeed true. We were all seriously injured back then. Those people were really strong, and they were all experts in assassination. At that time, I didn’t even notice anyone approaching before I was seriously injured. One blow, just one blow, and I was seriously injured and almost died.”

Xia Liu then spoke.

Moreover, he called Elder Xia Tou his father from birth.

That's right, he is Xia Tou's son. Their Xia family is not an ordinary family in the Immortal Sect, but a large family in the Immortal Sect. He and his father are from a collateral branch of the Xia family.

However, no one present showed any reaction to Xia Liu calling Xia Tou "father".

This matter is not a secret within the Immortal Sect.

Xia Liu said that he was seriously injured and almost died from a single blow.

This shows how strong that person's ability to conceal himself was. Although Xia Liu did not comprehend the power, he still reached the peak of the Grandmaster level.

If someone of the same cultivation level could severely injure him with a single blow, then most of the people present probably wouldn't have been able to escape either.

For a moment, the stewards who had not yet grasped the essence of the power became somewhat frightened.

"Elder Liu Mang, are you the same?"

Elder Xia Tou did not ask Xia Liu, but looked at Elder Liu Mang.

"No, people who have grasped the power have a special sense of danger. However, when I sensed the danger, the person was already less than 20 meters away from me. In his hands, I could only passively defend."

"He was stronger than me, but not by much. Of course, if he was hiding his strength, I wouldn't know. I couldn't hold out against him for long. Later, three more experts of the same level appeared. With the four of them joining forces, I could only block one of their attacks and was seriously injured on the spot."

Liu Mang did not hide anything and briefly recounted his experience at the time.

Although they mentioned it in the letter, it was only a brief mention that they had been ambushed and seriously injured, and asked the sect to send reinforcements.

"By the way, all four of them have comprehended the Darkness Realm, making them virtually invincible in the darkness."

Elder Liu Mang added.

"you sure?"

Xia Tou was somewhat incredulous; that was a rare power, and comprehending it was far more difficult than comprehending the Five Elements power.

It's already rare to see one, but now there are four.

This is not a joke.

Especially since these four people might all be stronger than Liu Mang, he wouldn't be able to withstand their combined attacks.

As the Grand Elder of the Outer Sect, he was indeed stronger than Liu Mang, but only by a limited margin.

He was confident he could defeat Liu Mang, but that was just defeating him; he couldn't actually kill Liu Mang.

But these are the people who are able to do it.

"It's confirmed. They really have the capability. Whether they kill us or not is simply a matter of whether they want to or not."

"Moreover, based on speculation, these people are very likely to be the people of that Divine Martial King. They are all so powerful. Just how powerful must that Divine Martial King be? I've been thinking about this for a while now. Could it be that the Divine Martial King has already broken through to that level?"

Liu Mang then shared his guesses.

He had never actually seen the Divine Martial King, so he could only guess and couldn't be sure.

"Regardless of whether he has broken through to that realm or not, if those people are from the Divine Martial King's Mansion, then we need to be careful. That Divine Martial King is definitely stronger than those people, otherwise he wouldn't be able to suppress such a powerful figure."

"And even if they haven't broken through, they're probably not far off. People like that are beyond our ability to fight."

"I will immediately send someone back to the sect to have an inner sect elder or a core elder come."

"And during this time, everyone should behave themselves, do nothing, and wait for the sect's reply."

After thinking for a moment, Xia Tou finally voiced his concerns and plans.

This is the only way now.

If they make any move now, it's hard to guarantee that the next time the people from the Divine Martial Prince's Mansion attack, they will only seriously injure them, instead of taking their lives directly.

The group had no other choice and didn't want to die, so they could only follow Xia Tou's instructions.

Seeing that no one objected, Xia Tou said no more and told everyone to go back, whether to cultivate or rest, it didn't matter.
