335: The war is over, and 40 million spirit stones will be divided!

With a puff, Yu Mu’s head flew off, his face still bearing a look of bewilderment.

Then, it was accompanied by a loud bang.

Yu Mu’s body was completely shattered by Guo Feng’s saber qi, devoured by the Fire Emperor Qi, and turned into ashes.

Then, with a wave of Guo Feng’s hand, Yu Mu’s spatial artifact fell into his hand.

He swept his divine sense over it.

“Heh, it’s about the same, all around ten million spiritual energy primordial stones, dozens of spiritual artifacts, and a large pile of low to mid-grade elixirs.”

Guo Feng couldn’t help but laugh.

Putting everything else aside, the wealth he gained from this trip was even more effective than auctioning off a strengthening fruit.

Afterward, he put away the spatial artifact.

He let out a roar to the sky, “Beast, don’t run!”

Boom—

He blasted out a stream of Fire Emperor Qi, transforming it into a giant fist that smashed through the dome of the hall!

At the same time, he summoned a Phantom Spirit and sent it soaring towards the horizon.

Then, he flew out and shouted down, “Lu He City has hidden masters! City Lord Yu Mu was assassinated! I’m going to pursue the bandits! Everyone else, go back and report!”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed towards the horizon.

“Young Master, be careful!”

“Guo Wang City’s intentions are despicable!”

Sima Hui and Li Chi also played their parts to the fullest, shouting as they rushed in Guo Feng’s direction.

This left everyone else in Lu He City completely bewildered.

However, this had nothing to do with Guo Feng anymore.

Whether people suspected it or not.

The established fact now was that the City Lord of Lion Mountain City had died in Lu He City.

Lu He City had been breached by Lion Mountain City!

This was already enough.

At this moment, Guo Feng, Sima Hui, and Li Chi were already several hundred kilometers away, one after another.

Then they landed in a valley.

“Haha!”

Guo Feng immediately burst into laughter, “This time went smoothly! No matter what, the people of Qin Wang City attacked the people of Guo Wang City. The people of Guo Wang City also killed the people of Qin Wang City!”

He paused, “Moreover, Qin Xiang Duke absolutely dares not have too much contact with Duke Guo at this moment!”

“Indeed.”

Li Chi nodded, “Your trick, kid, is an overt scheme. It’s only right and proper for Qin Wang City to attack rebels.”

“With your move, it will be difficult for Qin Wang City to remain uninvolved!”

Sima Hui couldn’t help but nod.

Guo Feng smiled, “It was a sudden idea. No worries, crew will continue.”

Since they were playing a time difference, they naturally had to seize the moment.

So, they immediately used a Small Teleportation Talisman again and quickly headed to their next destination.

Two days later.

October 22nd.

Qin Wang City’s City Lord’s Council Hall.

“Bastards! Lion Mountain City, Baiyu City, and Shihe City attacked three major cities under Guo Wang City without my command! Duke Guo is pressing with his army. I originally intended to drag things out and remain uninvolved, but I never expected to become the vanguard against the rebels. What methods do you all have to get us out of this quagmire?”

Qin Xiang Duke looked like a fair-faced middle-aged man.

In reality, he was over four hundred years old!

He had also been receiving news one after another and was furious!

Everyone’s expressions were grim.

A scholar-like person stepped forward and said, “Marquis, we must immediately investigate the reason why these three major cities attacked the major cities under Guo Wang City!”

“Moreover, the strange thing is that the City Lords of all three major cities died during the process of the punitive expedition.”

“I think someone is stirring up trouble in the dark!”

He continued, “Therefore, we should find the person behind this and expose them to the public, which would also be an explanation to Duke Guo!”

“This is just one thing.”

Another scholar stepped forward, “Marquis should also write a letter, sending our envoy to Guo Wang City to explain the reasons, and even…”

His eyes gleamed, “We can also secretly form an alliance with him and, at a critical moment, also go along with proclaiming ourselves emperor!”

Everyone’s expressions changed instantly.

Qin Xiang Duke waved his hand, “Silence! I am a loyal subject, and the sun and moon can bear witness! If you utter those words again, I will surely execute you!”

“Yes! This junior knows his mistake!”

The man hurriedly lowered his head.

And another person came out and said, “Is this matter related to the restless Yanshan City recently?”

“Yanshan City and Lion Mountain City are separated by a hundred thousand li.”

“Lion Mountain City and the other two cities are also separated by tens of thousands of li.”

“And from the intelligence we’ve received, regarding the time they attacked the cities, the people of Yanshan City probably wouldn’t have had enough time.”

Qin Xiang Duke shook his head and waved his hand, “However, still have someone investigate it. Also, why haven’t Mo and Xi returned yet? Go and urge them.”

He was also at his wit’s end.

Such a conflict had actually erupted!

It was impossible for him to sit back and reap the benefits as he had intended before.

To prevent the conflict from escalating, he also had to send many people to the border to manage the situation.

This way, he would have even fewer available people around him.

As for the matter of Yanshan City, it suddenly became less important.

…

Above a mountain peak within Lion Mountain City territory.

Li Chi and Sima Hui were sitting cross-legged, waiting for Guo Feng, who had gone to Lion Mountain City to investigate the situation.

After a while.

A figure shot through the sky from the horizon.

It was precisely Guo Feng.

“The situation is about as I expected. Both sides’ cities are very tense.”

Guo Feng landed.

He used Guo Sheng’s appearance to visit the two cities and made some inquiries.

Although Lu He City was now occupied by Lion Mountain City, tensions were high.

And they were about to fight with another major city of Guo Wang City.

He continued, “This time, Qin Xiang Duke was dragged into the mess by me, so Yanshan City should be safe for now. It’s best for you two to return to Yanshan City to oversee things.”

“Will you be alright going to the imperial capital alone?”

Sima Hui frowned.

Li Chi also said, “Your spatial teleportation ability is indeed very strong, but once you encounter means that restrict flight, you’ll be quite dangerous.”

“No need to worry.”

Guo Feng waved his hand, “I’ll act according to the situation! You two, take advantage of these days to bring crew over, occupy the territories that should be occupied, and make arrangements.”

He smiled, “You just need to wait for my news then, and we’ll go together to assassinate Qin Xiang Duke.”

“Alright then.”

Seeing Guo Feng so confident, Sima Hui and Li Chi didn’t say much.

Because in these two days, they had also witnessed Guo Feng’s growth.

Compared to them, he wasn’t far behind.

Li Chi looked at Guo Feng, “Be careful, preserving your life is the most important thing. crew will leave first!”

They said they were leaving.

“Wait, let’s split the spoils. In these past few days, crew have slain six City Lords of major cities and seized the spoils from six spatial artifacts. crew will divide the spiritual energy primordial stones equally, and for the rest, take whatever you want.”

Guo Feng, however, called out to them.

With a wave of his hand.

Six spatial artifacts floated before them.

These were all the ‘treasure troves’ that those City Lords carried with them.

Over eighty million low-grade spiritual energy primordial stones.

Countless low to mid-grade elixirs and spiritual artifacts.

These were the life savings of these City Lords, carried with them for maximum security.

But they never expected them to fall into Guo Feng’s hands.

“crew only need twenty million spiritual energy primordial stones each, and just pick some elixirs and spiritual artifacts.”

“Yes, you were the main force this time, you take the lion’s share.”

Sima Hui and Li Chi thought for a moment, each taking twenty million spiritual energy primordial stones and some elixirs and spiritual artifacts.

Afterward, Guo Feng gave each of them fifty Small Teleportation Talismans.

Both men rolled their eyes!

Didn’t he say they were very precious and rare?

It was just ridiculous!

However, they didn’t say much. As long as they were useful, what was the point of prying into others’ secrets?

Soon, they bid farewell and departed.

Guo Feng smiled, “Then I’ll also digest this and further improve my strength. Going to the imperial capital, I still need some confidence. Otherwise, I’ll truly become a gigolo who lives off women.”

“Panel!”
