With a soft "plop," the fish's head flew off, its face still bearing a look of astonishment.
Then came a loud bang.
Fish Eye's body was completely shattered by Guo Feng's sword energy and swallowed by the Fire Emperor's energy, turning into ashes.
Then Guo Feng waved his hand, and the spatial artifact that Yu Mu carried with him fell into his hand.
He scanned it with his divine sense.
"Heh, about the same, around ten million spirit stones, dozens of spirit weapons, and a bunch of low- to mid-grade pills."
Guo Feng couldn't help but laugh.
Putting everything else aside, the wealth gained from this trip is even more effective than auctioning the health-enhancing fruit.
Then, he put away the spatial artifacts.
Yang Tian roared, "You beast, don't run away!"
boom--
He unleashed a burst of fire emperor energy, which transformed into a gigantic fist that smashed the dome of the hall!
At the same time, a phantom spirit was summoned and rushed towards the horizon.
Then, he flew out and shouted down, "There are hidden experts in Luhe City! Lord Yumu has been attacked and killed! I'm going to pursue the bandits! The rest of you go back and report!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed towards the horizon.
"Young Master, be careful!"
"Guo Wangcheng's heart is despicable!"
Sima Hui and Li Chi were also putting on a full act, shouting as they charged toward Guo Feng.
This completely baffled everyone else in Luhe City.
However, this has nothing to do with Guo Feng anymore.
Whether people have doubts or not.
The established fact is that the lord of Lion Mountain City died in Deer River City.
Luhe City has been breached by Shishan City!
That's enough.
Meanwhile, Guo Feng, along with Sima Hui and Li Chi, had already rushed hundreds of kilometers ahead.
Then they landed in a valley.
"Ha ha!"
Guo Feng then laughed loudly, "This time it went quite smoothly. No matter what, the people of Qinwang City attacked the people of Guowang City. And the people of Guowang City also killed the people of Qinwang City!"
He paused for a moment, then added, "Moreover, Marquis Xiang of Qin would never dare to have too much contact with Duke Guo at this moment!"
"That's true."
Li Chi nodded, "You've got a perfectly legitimate plan, kid. It's only right for the Qin King City to attack the rebels."
"With your intervention, it will be difficult for the Qin King City to remain unscathed!"
Sima Hui couldn't help but nod.
Guo Feng smiled and said, "It was just a sudden thought. It's alright, let's continue."
Since we're aiming to capitalize on the time difference, we must act quickly.
So they immediately used the teleportation spell and quickly moved on to their next destination.
Two days later.
October 22nd.
The council hall of the Qin King's City.
"Damn it! Lion Mountain City, White Jade City, and Stone River City attacked the three major cities of Guo Wang City without my orders. Duke Guo has raised an army to press on our borders. I originally intended to stall for time and keep my own interests at bay, but I never expected to become the vanguard in the campaign against the rebels. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get us out of this quagmire?"
Marquis Xiang of Qin was a fair-skinned, middle-aged man.
In reality, it is over four hundred years old!
He received the news one after another and was furious!
Everyone looked grim.
One of the men, who looked like a scholar, stepped forward and said, "My lord, we must immediately investigate the reasons why these three major cities attacked the major city under the control of King Guo!"
"Moreover, what's strange is that the lords of the three great cities all died during the campaign."
"I think someone is stirring things up in the shadows!"
He added, "Therefore, we should find out who is behind this and make it public, which would be equivalent to giving Duke Guo an explanation!"
"That's only one aspect."
Another scholar stepped forward, "Your Excellency should write a letter, sending our envoy to Guo Wang City to explain the reasons, and perhaps even..."
His eyes sharpened. "We can also form a secret alliance with them and, at a crucial moment, also declare ourselves emperor!"
Everyone's expression changed.
Marquis Xiang of Qin waved his hand and said, "Shut up! I am a loyal minister, as the sun and moon can attest! If you utter these words again, I will surely kill you!"
"Yes! I know I was wrong!"
The man quickly lowered his head.
Then another person spoke up, "Is this matter related to the recent unrest in Yanshan City?"
"Yanshan City and Shishan City are 100,000 li apart."
"Lion Mountain City is tens of thousands of miles away from the other two cities."
"Based on the intelligence we have received, the people of Yanshan City probably won't have enough time to launch their attack."
Marquis Qin shook his head and waved his hand, "However, let's still send someone to investigate. Also, why haven't Mo Xi and the other two returned yet? Go and urge them to come back."
He was also extremely overwhelmed.
Such a conflict has actually broken out!
He could no longer reap the benefits as he had previously imagined.
To avoid escalating the conflict, he had to send a considerable number of people to the border to oversee the situation.
This means there are even fewer people available to help.
As for the matter of Yanshan City, it suddenly became less important.
...
On a mountain peak within the territory of Lion Mountain City.
Li Chi and Sima Hui were sitting cross-legged, waiting for Guo Feng to go to Lion Mountain City to investigate the situation.
A short while later.
A figure shot in from the horizon.
It was Guo Feng.
"The situation is pretty much as I expected; both sides are in a very tense situation."
Guo Feng landed.
Using Guo Sheng's appearance, he went to two cities to investigate.
Although Luhe City is now occupied by Lion Mountain City, tensions are high.
They are about to fight another major city, Guo Wangcheng.
He added, "This time, I've dragged Qin Xianghou into this mess, so Yanshan City should be safe for now. It would be best if you two returned to Yanshan City to take charge."
