After hearing Liu Zhihao's words, Tang Yan and Feng Ji had a reasonable explanation for Qin Feng and his group's outstanding performance.
Once the Emperor's legacy is obtained, ascending to the top of the Tower of Pride will be a piece of cake.
Tang Yan's face flushed with excitement as he looked at Feng Ji with delight.
Feng Ji was also very excited, he hadn't expected that ambushing Qin Feng would bring such an unexpected surprise.
Ding Yun, Deng Tuo, and Lin Jian, the three venerable incarnations of the Hehuan Sect who had been silently following along, were also filled with excitement.
The Emperor's legacy... they really hadn't expected that.
Tang Yan snapped out of his daze and stared intently at Liu Zhihao. "Is everything you said true?"
Liu Zhihao had already struggled, so he had no choice but to tell the whole story, recounting the ins and outs of the matter.
Since it concerned the succession of the Great Emperor, everyone listened attentively.
Feng Ji and the others listened intently, their eyes gleaming. They felt that Liu Zhihao's analysis was correct.
The Emperor's legacy is bound to fall into the hands of Qin Feng and his companions; they are determined to seize it. They are ambitious and envision the future.
Tang Yan seemed to understand something; he had discerned the key point.
There are several Gengjin tokens.
Tang Yan muttered to himself, "Token, Gengjin Emperor, Gengjin Token."
He felt like he had seen those two words somewhere before, and as he tried to recall them, images flashed through his mind.
That was about six or seven years ago, when he harmed a female disciple of the Miaoyin Pavilion, and he seemed to have seen this kind of token among her belongings.
Because of Tang Yan's peculiar habit, he would carry these spoils with him at all times. He probed his storage ring with his divine sense.
Sure enough, they found an ordinary-looking token with the words "Geng Jin" written on it.
A slight smile appeared on his lips.
If the token in his hand is indeed related to the Gengjin Emperor, then even if Qin Feng and the others obtained the Gengjin Emperor's inheritance, it would be incomplete.
Tang Yan is indeed a man favored by heaven; he can encounter such good fortune.
After rattling off his words, Liu Zhihao felt helpless. He knew he had no chance of inheriting the Emperor's legacy; he just hoped to save his life.
He came to Tianjiao City full of hope to find Qin Feng, but in the end, he was just doing the work for someone else.
Tang Yan and Feng Ji exchanged a glance, and at the same time, they had the same thought: to kill them to silence them.
The Emperor's legacy shouldn't be known to too many people; Liu Zhihao is still too naive.
Liu Zhihao was the leader of a faction, and he could tell what Tang Yan and Feng Ji were up to just by looking at their expressions. He had done this kind of thing many times before.
He had prepared his explanation in advance: "Rest assured, esteemed members of the Hehuan Sect, we can swear that we will not reveal this matter."
Tang Yan looked at him with a half-smile, "Hehe, have you ever heard the saying that only the dead can keep secrets?"
Liu Zhihao remained calm and responded with composure:
“We made preparations before we came. If something happens to us, someone will naturally tell the news. I believe many people are very interested in the Emperor’s succession.”
Feng Ji looked at him coldly, "Are you threatening us?"
Liu Zhihao shook his head and replied:
"We wouldn't dare. We're just trying to save our lives. Besides, if we can find out about this, so can others."
Perhaps other forces have already set their sights on them, so whether they kill us or not is actually irrelevant.
My Fengqing Sect is just a small force, and we dare not be enemies with the Hehuan Sect. Let us go and we will not cause you any trouble.
"Please let us go, in gratitude for the information we provided. We swear to keep it a secret."
Tang Yan listened to Liu Zhihao's words and felt that they made some sense.
He had no doubt that Liu Zhihao had a backup plan. If he killed them, the Fengqing Sect would spread the news, and Qin Feng's popularity would skyrocket. After some investigation, it might lead back to him.
If these people were to make a vow to back down, that would be a better option.
In his eyes, the people of the Fengqing faction were nothing more than minor figures, and whether he let them go or not was irrelevant.
The most crucial point is that we don't know if Liu Zhihao is hiding any important clues, so we can't kill him yet.
He and Feng Ji exchanged a glance and made a decision.
"It's not impossible to spare your lives, but I don't know if what you're saying is true or not. We'll confront you face to face when we capture Qin Feng."
Liu Zhihao secretly groaned; he still couldn't trust them. He was at their mercy, like a fish on the chopping block, and there was nothing he could do.
...
Qin Feng and his companions flew northeast in their flying boat, and after flying for most of the day, they arrived at the Yunji Mountains.
Tang Yan was very patient, following them from a distance without making any rash moves. He wanted to know what Qin Feng and the others were up to, and who was secretly watching over the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Qin Feng stopped the flying boat, and the group disembarked.
Yin Tiantian and Xiao Fan gazed at the dense jungle, their fighting spirit brimming, eager to engage the monsters in battle.
Qin Feng and Leng Yuexi looked at them with amusement.
"Don't worry, this place is called Yunji Mountain Range. It's said to be because there are so many kinds of monsters here that we can't count them all, and some of them are not things we can mess with."
"Then what should we do?"
"Let me investigate first."
Qin Feng took to the air, circled the area roughly, made a judgment, and then turned back.
He said to Yin Tiantian and Xiao Fan:
"The monsters within a thousand miles of here aren't very high-level; most are at the Golden Core stage. It's a good place for you two to train. Be careful not to stray too far from this area. Yuexi and I won't interfere."
Yin Tiantian waved her fist and said, "Don't worry, I'm off!"
Xiao Fan also started walking, heading deeper into the jungle.
Qin Feng and Leng Yuexi found it somewhat amusing to see the two so full of fighting spirit.
