You've only been here for three or four days, so you don't yet understand their methods.
As far as I know, the most skillful thing about humans is not cultivation, but playing chess and acting.
The strongest chess player in the Fire Phoenix Kingdom is their current emperor, Qin Ji.
But the best actor is none other than His Highness the Crown Prince.
Judging from his appearance, he must have suffered a loss before.
Di Zhengchen frowned, asking in confusion, "Why do you say that?"
Guo Feng made the Tuoying Bead in his hand float up.
He said coldly, "I started dealing with this Crown Prince on my very first day in the Northern Continent."
At first, I was also excited by what he said, but later I found that he said almost the same thing every time.
So I got smarter and started recording him every time he came.
This Tuoyingzhu (a type of magic bead) contains every one of his performances.
The content was almost identical, even the timing of the tears was the same.
As he spoke, the Tuoyingzhu projected the recording.
Just as Guo Feng had said, Qin Yingzhong had recited almost the same rhetoric to him at least three times.
Yue Qingling looked slightly embarrassed and wanted to say something, but what came out was, "Uh..."
It seems that I, King Guo, am truly injured.
Otherwise, we shouldn't be so serious about it.
He was instantly filled with shame and anger. Guo Feng had been deceived by the human race in the Northern Continent, and now he had been cuckolded at home as well.
Why target such an honest person as a swindler?
Guo Feng: You humans have really broken my heart.
The atmosphere in the reception room became oppressive.
Di Zhengchen, his face grim, carefully considered his words before saying calmly, "Let me give you a heads-up."
We don't have much time left.
King Guo, in my opinion, whoever ultimately inherits the throne in the Northern Continent will resist foreign enemies.
Regardless of what the crown prince is thinking, the fact that he's willing to come and express his opinion shows that he understands our importance.
They seized the opportunity.
Why doesn't Han Bingqing take the initiative to get closer to him?
Moreover, if I had to choose between the two, I would still think that Qin Yingzhong would be a better choice.
He was originally the crown prince, and many people in the Northern Continent thought so too, so our resistance will be much less.”
Di Zhengchen's words silenced both Yue Qingling and Guo Feng.
Although they each had their own ulterior motives, they both knew that hesitation would only lead to more trouble, and now was not the time to be picky.
We must quickly pacify the Northern Continent and then begin preparations to defend against the enemy.
Yue Qingling took a deep breath, and in his heart he could only apologize to Su Muxue.
He said calmly, "I agree with the principal's decision. We really don't have time."
Guo Feng put away the Shadow Bead and pondered for a moment: "Well, no matter what, at least I have a goal."
Representatives from the three continents were in agreement, and Di Zhengchen solemnly said, "In that case, I will enter the palace immediately, even if it means forcing Qin Yingzhong to abdicate, I will help him seize power!"
...
The struggle in the North is not as fragmented as that in the South.
It's like a balance scale; although it fluctuates, it always remains in equilibrium.
Guo Feng's cultivation level is very high, but not enough to tip the scales.
So he's been here for over a year and has been of almost no use.
But Di Zhengchen, who is at the Human King Realm, is different.
When he chose to help Qin Yingzhong, the scales of victory began to tip in Qin Yingzhong's favor.
The princelings' power has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel.
Two days later, Emperor Qin Ji delegated the power to mobilize troops and supplies to the Eastern Palace.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Yingzhong, in the name of the Crown Prince, sent invitations to all sects and cultivators in the Northern Continent.
Three days later, he will host a banquet at the palace, inviting all the heroes of the Northern Continent.
He also named this banquet "Gathering of Heroes".
Everyone in the Northern Continent realized that the Crown Prince was about to win.
As long as these sects and cultivators attend the banquet, it will signify that from now on, the Northern Continent will follow Qin Yingzhong's lead.
The complex factional struggles were easily resolved with Di Zhengchen's involvement.
Han Bingqing's hard work of nearly two years vanished in the blink of an eye.
Three days later, it was Qin Yingzhong's victory celebration banquet.
This is also the day of Han Bingqing's death.
Is that all?
When Han Bingqing met Yue Qingling in the embassy's reception room, this was the first thing she said.
Her expression was miserable, and her face was ashen.
Beside her, Su Muxue hung her head helplessly, like a defeated rooster.
Yue Qingling did not comfort her.
He looked at Su Muxue and said helplessly, "There's no other way but to cut the Gordian knot. It's just that this knot will cut you."
"My thousand cultivators from the White Jade Sect are now like turtles in a jar. In three days, they will all become prisoners."
"Your swords have killed way too many people!"
Han Bingqing said with a bitter smile.
"Bingqing, stop talking. Things have come to this point. It's all about the winner taking all the credit. If you're slow on one step, you'll be slow on every step of the way."
Su Muxue sighed.
She looked at Yue Qingling and said with a wry smile, "Master, it wouldn't be right to kill them all, would it?"
Yue Qingling smiled and said, "Of course."
He took out a token and placed it in Su Muxue's hand.
"This is a token leading to the Nine Netherworld. Take the White Jade Sect with you and leave. Qingyu will meet you there."
He had no intention of expanding the power in the Eastern Continent; he simply didn't want so many people to die because of factional strife.
He came to save people, not to harm them.
"Young Master Yue..."
Han Bingqing looked at him, her beautiful face filled with helplessness and confusion.
"Let's go. A crisis is coming. Leaving might be a good thing."
Yue Qingling offered words of comfort.
