Over time, Li Wanqing grew increasingly resentful of Han Feng.
There was a feeling that seeing Han Feng alive was more painful than dying himself.
After arriving in the Upper Realm, Li Wanqing had been searching for news of Han Feng.
“I recently found some clues. I got some information about Han Feng from a celestial general at the Immortal Cleansing Pool,” Lin Richen said.
"Tell me quickly, don't keep me in suspense," Li Wanqing asked eagerly.
"He was welcoming people from a nearby Immortal City called Lihuangcheng into the Immortal Cleansing Pool. He found a name on the list that was exactly the same as the name of the person we were looking for, and then he suspected that the person was the one we were looking for."
"Since we were unsure whether this person was one of ours, we didn't report it. The reason he brought it up this time is mainly because the guard general had an affair with his superior's wife and was arrested by his superior."
"This immortal general knew he was going to die, so he told our people about it, hoping to save his life."
Lin Richen told Li Wanqing the whole story without hiding anything.
"So where did this person with the same name go?"
Li Wanqing had a vague feeling that the person at the Immortal Cleansing Pool was Han Feng.
"We can't find him. I heard that Han Feng suddenly disappeared, as if he vanished into thin air," Lin Richen said helplessly.
"I think they are still in the desolate city, just hiding their identities," Li Wanqing analyzed.
"I'll send out a few Grand Luo Celestials to search thoroughly. According to my sister, he probably hasn't been in the Immortal Realm for long, and his cultivation level is at most Golden Immortal. These few Grand Luo Celestials should be enough," Lin Richen said casually.
"I think these few Grandmasters aren't enough. Not only will they not be able to find anything, but they might also lose their own lives."
"Not enough Great Luo Celestial Immortals? Then I'll send out Great Luo Golden Immortals, that should be enough, right?"
"I don't think it's enough."
Lin Richen's suggestion was good, but Li Wanqing felt it wouldn't work.
She had a premonition that Han Feng's level of understanding was even higher than her own.
"Didn't you say that this guy named Han Feng ascended to heaven with you? It's only been less than a hundred years now, so reaching the Golden Immortal level should be his limit."
“Even someone as powerful as the Dragon-Snake Immortal Emperor Teng, who was said to have the potential to become an emperor since childhood, has had difficulty reaching the Golden Immortal realm in a hundred years. It’s not an overestimation of Han Feng,” Lin Richen asked.
“It’s not an overestimation at all. His cultivation speed in the lower realm is also very fast. He reached the late stage of Mahayana in less than two hundred years. You’ll definitely say that’s the Spirit Demon Realm, which is very different from the Immortal Realm.”
“But my intuition tells me that this person’s cultivation level may already be at the Immortal King level. Before coming here, I went to Qingyuan City, where I sensed a familiar aura,” Li Wanqing said, shaking her head.
"Then, Sister Wanqing, tell me what we should do next. Or should I just send troops to the vicinity of the Great Wilderness and search for everyone there one by one?"
"No, that would be too much of a commotion and could easily displease Empress Tianxuan. Our Empress needs time to recover; this is not the time to create unnecessary trouble."
"What should we do then?"
"Let's wait and see how things develop for now."
Wouldn't it be better to just wait and see?
“There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s very likely that we’re not the only ones targeting the immortal cities near the Great Wilderness. There’s someone else who’s also targeting the immortal cities near the Great Wilderness, and this person is even more eager than us.”
Are you referring to the Immortal King of Guangling?
“That’s right. He may be able to hide it from others, but he can’t hide it from us. He is able to break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm, and a large part of the credit goes to the Underworld Ancestor.”
"Is the Nether Ancestor that powerful? This Guangling Immortal King has been at the late Immortal King stage for a long time, I didn't expect him to break through so easily." Lin Richen asked with a smile.
"Aren't you envious?" Li Wanqing asked abruptly.
"No, no!"
Lin Richen quickly said.
“It’s normal to have ideas. You used to be a Celestial King under His Majesty, but things are different now. Your cultivation has reached the Quasi-Emperor realm.”
"As for Her Majesty, she has fallen from the Immortal Emperor realm and was able to gain a foothold in the Tianxuan Immortal Kingdom only because of you. Her Majesty said that after you return, she will raise your cultivation to the Immortal Emperor realm."
Having held a high position for a long time, Li Wanqing knew very well how to manage her subordinates.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Richen expressed his gratitude.
He had been at the Quasi-Emperor level for a long time, but remained at the early stage of Quasi-Emperor, unable to advance any further.
Lin Richen tried many methods, but none of them could break through his cultivation level.
Originally, he was completely loyal to Empress Tianxuan and would not have any contact with Empress Jiutian.
But he was too eager to break through his cultivation level; the Quasi-Emperor realm was still not enough for Lin Richen.
So Lin Richen contacted the Nine Heavens Empress's people again, offering to pledge allegiance in exchange for a method to advance to the Immortal Emperor level.
He did many things for the Nine Heavens Empress and gained a great deal of benefits.
The bottleneck that Lin Richen hadn't been able to loosen for a long time was starting to loosen as well.
He felt that in a while, he would be able to break through to the mid-stage of Quasi-Emperor.
"Next, just send someone to keep an eye on the Guangling Immortal King. It would be best if he could find out and kill Han Feng. If not, we'll have to do it ourselves," Li Wanqing instructed.
"Sister Wanqing, you can rest assured," Lin Richen said, patting his chest.
...
"Guangling Immortal City has actually broken through to the Quasi-Emperor realm."
Han Feng had only been back from Qingyuan City for a short time when he received this rather surprising news.
In the simulation of life, the Guangling Immortal King sacrificed a number of immortal cities, including the Desolate City, before the Underworld Ancestor raised his cultivation to the Quasi-Emperor realm.
It seems that his killing of the Three-Eyed Immortal King has made the Guangling Immortal King impatient.
In fact, Han Feng knew this would happen when he killed the Three-Eyed Immortal King.
But he had no choice but to do so in order to prevent Emperor Richen from taking action.
Even the mighty Guangling Immortal King could not mobilize the power of the Immortal Kingdom, but the Richen Quasi-Emperor could.
Han Feng would rather face the Guangling Immortal King and the Underworld Ancestor than the Richen Quasi-Emperor and the Tianxuan Empress.
Most importantly, he learned that Empress Tianxuan had gone on a trip and had been drifting in the Immortal Sea for two or three years.
The three quasi-emperors guarding the capital of Tianxuan did not know the exact location of the Tianxuan Empress.
If it weren't for the fact that Empress Tianxuan's realm was at the Immortal Emperor level, and that ordinary people posed no threat to her, several Quasi-Emperors would have wanted to go to the Immortal Sea to search for her.
The absence of Empress Tianxuan will undoubtedly cause other forces hidden in the Immortal Kingdom to begin to stir.
It wouldn't be strange if the Underworld Ancestor and the Guangling Immortal King had acted beforehand.
"We still need to do a life simulation to see how things develop."
Han Feng's killing of the Three-Eyed Immortal King will inevitably change many things.
He can guess many things, but never as specifically as in a life simulation.
Han Feng's situation is still too dangerous and must be handled with caution.
If he hadn't handled things properly, his death would have been perfectly normal.
Han Feng looked up at the distant, densely clouded sky. The sky slowly brightened, indicating that the Guangling Immortal King had successfully transcended his tribulation.
