"Do you want to go with me?"
The white-haired old man asked with a smile on his face, his tone as calm as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"Your disciple will be happy to accompany you." Yun Zheng smiled slightly, but then changed the subject and said, "Since we are going to show our power, why not bring a few more people?"
Zong Renwu seemed to have anticipated this and sighed, "Master, don't you know what you're thinking? In fact, I have the same idea. Call everyone in your team here."
"Thank you, Master."
Yun Zheng quickly called Feng Xinglan and the other seven people off the spirit boat. At the same time, Zong Renwu announced to everyone, "Wait here for a moment. We'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired old man raised his hand and tore the void, then walked in calmly, and behind him were eight young men.
In the blink of an eye, their figures completely disappeared from the spot.
Their aura gradually faded.
Everyone had different expressions. Some people frowned and asked anxiously, "What are you taking them to do, Senior?!"
"Why are you only taking the Fengyun team?"
"What exactly does Senior Zongren want to do?"
At this time, Elder Hu of the Scarlet Sky Divine Wind Hall looked towards Lady Jiu and asked tentatively, "Ninth Elder, do you know why this senior from the clan went out this time?"
Ninth Lady chuckled softly, "I'm just a junior elder at Qiongtian Academy. How could the dean possibly report to me? You're asking the wrong person."
Elder Hu's face twitched.
She, the Ninth Lady, definitely has a place in Qiongtian Academy, and these words are just an excuse.
On Spirit Boat No. 3, Huangfu Hao's eyes darkened, and he suddenly said, "We just need to wait here for the senior from the clan to come back."
As a young genius, he once visited Shouyun Continent. At that time, people from the other two continents looked down on Qiongtian. If it were not for the presence of the elders from the clan, they might have died in a foreign land.
I'm afraid the reason why the senior from the clan went out this time was because of Shouyun.
A word quickly came to his mind: a show of force.
Huangfu Hao's brows gradually furrowed, and he suddenly thought of something. He turned his head to look at the man in black robe not far away. Rong Shuo's mother was... from Yaoguang Continent.
Back then, that silver figure captivated everyone and attracted nearly half of the young geniuses to fall in love with her. However, she fell in love with Rong Tianji and betrayed her family and followed Rong Tianji back to Qiongtian. In the end, she ended up with a tragic fate.
He couldn't help but shake his head with emotion.
Rong Tianji didn't dare to come, perhaps because he was afraid that Yin Nanqian's family would come after him.
At this moment, Huangfu Xiangwei, who was on the deck, couldn't help but look towards Emperor Zun from afar. Her eyes seemed to contain many emotions: admiration, grievance, infatuation, desire, resentment...
Suddenly, a voice came from behind her.
"Eldest sister, Lord Emperor doesn't like you. Even if you keep looking at him, he is not your man."
Huangfu Xiangwei turned her head and saw the figure of her fourth sister. She couldn't help but frowned, and put on the attitude of an elder sister and said in a deep voice: "It has nothing to do with you."
Huangfu Xiangqian smiled upon hearing this and said, "When we successfully enter the Three Continents Exchange Conference, do you think the Emperor will be more popular? Will it be Shouyun's Tianjiao? Or Yaoguang's?"
"Huangfu Xiangqian!" Huangfu Xiangwei's face suddenly darkened, and he scolded her in a warning tone.
Huangfu Xiangqian's fox eyes were raised aggressively, and she said in a teasing tone, "You can't even capture the Emperor's heart now. When the Emperor sees more beauties, maybe he will be moved and then establish an empress."
These words stimulated Huangfu Xiangwei.
She stared at Huangfu Xiangqian coldly, then she walked forward quickly with anger, raised her arm, and slapped Huangfu Xiangqian hard.
"Pah—"
Huangfu Xiangqian didn't dodge and was hit by her, causing her body to twist.
On Spirit Boat No. 3, everyone's attention was instantly drawn to the sound of a slap in the face.
When Huangfu Hao saw that Huangfu Xiangqian's face was red and swollen, and blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth, he immediately shouted in anger.
"Weier, what are you doing?!"
Huangfu Xiangwei was startled by the growl. She turned her head and met her father's disappointed and angry eyes.
She panicked and wanted to explain anxiously, "Dad, I..."
Huangfu Xiangqian ran to Huangfu Hao's side with red eyes, sobbing aggrievedly, "Dad, I was just trying to persuade my elder sister not to have any improper thoughts about the Emperor. I didn't expect her to get so angry that she slapped me."
Huangfu Hao became even more disappointed when he heard this.
"You're talking nonsense, Dad, don't believe her!" Huangfu Xiangwei was angry. She now knew that she had fallen into the trap of her fourth sister.
Huangfu Hao looked extremely disappointed, and his tone darkened. "Push the young lady back to the boat room and let her face the wall to reflect on her mistakes! No one is allowed to let her out without the order of this family head!"
Huangfu Xiangwei shouted in disbelief, "Dad!"
Seeing this, the members of Xianghuang Team wanted to plead for Huangfu Xiangwei, but they were given a sharp look by Huangfu Hao.
Xiang Huang's team suddenly fell silent.
As Huangfu Xiangwei was being escorted to the boat room, she heard Huangfu Xiangqian's provocative words in her mind: "Eldest sister, you will never get the Emperor."
Huangfu Xiangwei clenched her hands violently, her expression filled with extreme anger.
When Huangfu Xiangqian saw her being escorted back to the boat room, she lowered her eyes slightly, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips. She always knew what Huangfu Xiangwei cared about.
It is ridiculous for a woman to be trapped in love.
No love affair is as interesting as having the power of life and death in your hands.
What she hoped was that Huangfu Xiangwei would take the initiative to come before the Emperor and die at his hands, so that she wouldn't have to do it herself.
Huangfu Xiangqian looked up at the man and woman on Spirit Boat No. 6, and a hint of hidden murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
All she wants is to eliminate all her rivals for power, and then... become the head of the royal family!
…
The other side.
Qu family, inside the hall.
"Are we really going to leave them hanging for a few days?"
The speaker was an old man in navy blue clothes. His wrinkled face had a high hooked nose and two bloodless lips, which made him look mean and sinister.
The other middle-aged man waved his hand dismissively and said with a smile, "How can this be called hanging out? We were just preparing things to welcome them, so we were delayed for a few days."
"You are really smart, Patriarch." The old man with the hooked nose smiled upon hearing this, but suddenly his expression hesitated for a moment, "But, Patriarch, the people from other forces should also know that the people from Qiongtian are coming. Will they bypass our Qu family and send people to pick up the people from Qiongtian?"
