Chapter 206 The Hidden Secrets Behind Zhongzhou
A few days later.
The old general has finally returned.
"Your Majesty, this old minister has found the address of the people from the Immortal Sect."
The old general reported to the Empress of Western Zhou.
These past few days, the Empress of Western Zhou has been in a state of utter distress. News has been pouring in, but none of it has brought good news.
Finally, some good news came back today.
"Old General, where is the immortal?"
The Empress immediately inquired.
Only the Immortal Sect can help them solve their current situation, and she needs to go see someone from the Immortal Sect immediately.
"Your Majesty, I know you are anxious, but please don't worry. I have indeed found out where the people from the Immortal Sect are, but I have also found out another piece of information."
"The members of the Immortal Sect were attacked by a mysterious person some time ago, and most of them are currently in seclusion to heal their injuries."
"It will probably not be easy for us to meet someone from the Immortal Sect."
"Moreover, according to the information I have gathered, this is the second time that the person from the Immortal Realm has been seriously injured."
The old general said with a grim expression.
He could hardly believe it when he found out.
But after confirming it again and again, he had no choice but to believe it, even if he didn't, since it was the truth.
What surprised him most was that someone actually dared to attack someone from the Immortal Sect.
He was also wondering who was so bold as to attack someone from the Immortal Sect.
The Empress was stunned upon hearing this news.
What did she hear? Someone from the Immortal Sect was attacked and seriously injured? Twice?
Who has such audacity? Are they truly unafraid of the wrath of the Immortal Sect?
Are you sure you're not joking with me?
The Western Zhou Empress still found it hard to believe.
In her mind, the Immortal Sect was synonymous with invincibility, and no one in the entire Central Continent dared to disrespect the Immortal Sect.
"No, although not many people know this news, the high-ranking members of those clans all know it."
"This old minister also learned of this news from them, and according to their speculation, it is possible that the Divine Martial King sent people to do it, but they have not found any evidence yet."
The old general didn't want to admit it, but it was an undeniable fact.
"The Divine Martial King sent people to do this? The Divine Martial King's Mansion has become this powerful?"
The Western Zhou Empress was somewhat bewildered again.
Then he thought he was hallucinating.
Does the Divine Martial King possess such formidable strength that he dares to attack an Immortal Sect?
"Yes, according to their speculation, it was the Divine Martial King who did it, Your Majesty. This Divine Martial King is probably more terrifying than we imagined."
"He doesn't usually participate in the politics of Dongqin, and many people think he's indifferent to worldly affairs."
"But according to our investigation, the most terrifying person in Dongqin is probably this Divine Martial King. It's not that he doesn't participate in politics, but that he considers those things to be trivial matters."
"He didn't take action because he felt it was unnecessary. This time, the Immortal Sect people came secretly, probably because he felt that the Immortal Sect people had entered his territory, which displeased him, so he took action against the Immortal Sect people."
The old general then shared his guess.
He knew this world was not simple. Many powerful forces had their own territories. It was fine if others didn't go to their territories, but once they did, these hidden forces were not easy to deal with.
He had a hunch that this Divine Martial King was probably someone from such a force.
Otherwise, how could he possess such terrifying power at such a young age, and even dare to secretly attack people from the Immortal Sect?
"You mean, from which forces might the Divine Martial King come?"
The Empress's expression was solemn.
She only began her investigation after learning about the Immortal Sect, and discovered that there were some mysterious forces hidden in this world. They might not be as powerful as the Immortal Sect, but that didn't mean they were afraid of it.
Even immortal sects have to be wary of them.
If the Divine Martial King really comes from those forces, then this is truly troublesome.
"Yes, that's a guess. Judging from what the clans are saying, the Immortal Sect is guessing the same thing. It's possible that those forces are starting to make moves again."
The old general said.
"It seems we need to prepare early, urge them to finish the negotiations, and then we can return home."
After a moment of silence, the Empress made her decision.
Although she couldn't confirm the identity of the Divine Martial King, she dared not take the risk.
She needs to return to China to make preparations.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will make the arrangements immediately."
After the old general finished speaking, he got up and left.
Five days later.
The three-month-long negotiations between the Western Zhou and Eastern Qin ended, and the tribute arrangement remained the same as in previous years.
After the negotiations concluded, the Western Zhou Empress returned to Western Zhou with her delegation the very next day.
Upon receiving the news, Qin Wu couldn't help but sneer.
However, he had no idea what the conversation between the Western Zhou Empress and the old general contained.
"Notify the Imperial Sword Sect and tell them to find a way to investigate the hidden forces. This world is getting more and more interesting."
Qin Wu gave instructions to Liu Feng.
"Yes."
Liu Feng accepted the order.
The Imperial Sword Sect has been silent for so long, it's time for them to make a move.
"By the way, let the Imperial Sword Sect have some fun with the Immortal Sect. As long as the Earth Immortal Realm experts don't make a move, don't be afraid. If the Immortal Sect's Earth Immortals do make a move, let them hide and wait until I return."
Qin Wu continued to give instructions.
The Imperial Sword Sect has been developing in secret for many years, and now it has grown into a behemoth.
Now is the time for them to make their move.
This will help to distract him and allow him to go to sea with peace of mind.
As for the Immortal Sect, if there are truly any hidden mysterious forces in this world, then the terrestrial immortals of the Immortal Sect would absolutely not dare to make a move lightly.
Then he has nothing to worry about.
"Yes, I'll go and inform them right away."
Liu Feng accepted the order once again.
He was also very much looking forward to it, as he knew all too well the strength of the Imperial Sword Sect.
Especially those few freaks, if they make a move, the Immortal Sect is probably in for a rough time.
I just don't know if the people the Immortal Sect sent this time can withstand it.
"Go!"
Qin Wu gave a casual instruction.
"Yes."
The wind vanished directly from the room.
"Interesting, this world is really interesting. I thought that after breaking through to the level of a terrestrial immortal, there would be less fun, but I didn't expect such a surprise."
Qin Wu said to himself.
His strength has been steadily increasing.
Especially his understanding of space. He didn't know if it was because of his time travel that he found it easier to comprehend the meaning of space than the meaning of wind.
He could sense that it wouldn't be long before his understanding of space surpassed his understanding of wind.
As his understanding of space deepened, he was no longer afraid even when facing peak-level terrestrial immortals.
However, he had never actually fought against such a powerful figure and was not entirely confident. Therefore, he planned to improve his strength during this voyage, ideally reaching the peak of the Land Immortal realm before returning. That way, he would no longer have to worry about the Immortal Sect.
Even if their overall strength is not a match for the Immortal Sect, it will still make the Immortal Sect wary and dare not easily interfere in the affairs of Dong Qin.
Given enough time, all the geniuses in his faction will grow up.
That was when he truly took action.
Also, when he returns this time, he wants to have a good talk with the Immortal Sect so that his father, the emperor, can continue to sit on the throne even after breaking through to the Grandmaster realm.
Help him buy some more time.
