352: The request of the master brother
“Su Changhe, the Empress is at the Nine-Rank Eighth Layer Limit, and with her Innate Saint Body, defeating you is as easy as swatting a dog!”
“The Imperial Relative is at the Nine-Rank Ninth Layer Limit, and his strength is on par with mine. Even if your Taiyi Sect Master came, what could he do?”
“Does your Taiyi Sect really think of itself as the Supreme Emperor? How dare you speak to the Empress like that?”
Mo Daoqing said, fanning the flames.
“You—”
Su Changhe was rendered speechless.
Indeed, the Empress’s strength was formidable; she was at the Nine-Rank Eighth Layer but possessed an Innate Saint Body.
Her strength was not beneath his.
And her Imperial Relative was known as the empire’s strongest expert.
Even if he was soon to be summoned to the Chaotic Empire.
As long as he was still here, no one would dare provoke the Empress!
“Alright, let’s drop this matter, Elder Su. Your Taiyi Sect should also rein it in. That sanction order, withdraw it.”
The Empress said indifferently.
“Yes—”
Su Changhe’s intestines turned green with regret, and he cursed The Zihuo Daoist and Guo Xiaoyi a hundred times in his heart.
Originally, the Taiyi Sect had no problems.
They just had to provoke Guo Feng!
The Zihuo Daoist was the Grand Elder of Transmitting Teachings, so he naturally had the authority to issue a sanction order.
But as a result, the Taiyi Sect’s prestige was damaged.
It was not worth it!
“Guo Feng, the imperial decree.”
The Empress then ignored Su Changhe and looked at Guo Feng, extending a hand.
“Alright, Empress.”
Guo Feng chuckled and waved his hand.
The imperial decree flew towards the Empress.
The Empress waved her hand and collected it.
Then she looked at Guo Feng, “After you receive your punishment at the Prison Punishment Division, participate well in the Emperor-Consort competition. If you can’t even make it to the palace examination, hmph!”
After she finished speaking, she bowed to Mo Daoqing, “Sumi Sect Master, I won’t see you out!”
Immediately, she led the Ten Regular Attendants and returned directly to the Imperial Palace.
“Respectfully seeing off the Empress!”
Everyone hurriedly knelt and bowed again.
After the Empress left, Su Changhe loudly declared, “The Taiyi Sect’s sanction order regarding Guo Feng is canceled! No one is to discuss it further!”
After he finished speaking, he turned and rushed into the Taiyi Sect’s office building, which had been almost half-destroyed by Guo Feng.
The other members of the Taiyi Sect also quickly cleaned up the mess.
They prepared to rebuild the building.
Meanwhile, Mo Daoqing smiled and looked at Guo Feng: “Little Twenty-Eight, escort me out of the Imperial Capital.”
“Alright.”
Guo Feng nodded and flew out with Mo Daoqing.
“Brother Feng…”
Hua Yinxi saw that Guo Feng hadn’t looked at her from beginning to end, and an indescribable feeling arose in her heart.
Distressed?
Uncomfortable?
Regretful?
She wasn’t sure.
She had never felt this kind of emotion before.
Initially, she had only been interested in Guo Feng’s talent, and later found Guo Feng very interesting and fun.
However, after the recent events, she felt a different kind of feeling towards Guo Feng.
“Alright, Little Princess, you should return to the Prefecture of the Princess first. I need to hurry back to the sect and report this matter to the Sect Master.”
Lou Yu’s mood was also extremely complex at this moment.
Before, he had only thought of Guo Feng as an arrogant and unruly dandy.
A small genius who relied on women.
However, at this moment, he felt that Guo Feng was not that simple. Although his actions were eccentric, they seemed to imply a deeper meaning.
He had also joined the Sumi Sect.
And he had been publicly acknowledged by the Empress as a prospective Emperor-Consort.
This person was likely to stir up great waves in the entire Yan Yang Empire in the future.
“Yes…”
Hua Yinxi sighed.
Then, she left a servant to wait for Guo Feng at the Imperial City District gate.
Afterward, she did not return to the Prefecture of the Princess but took out her flying boat and headed towards Wei Wang City.
She also had to inform her father, Duke Wei, about this matter!
And such incidents were not uncommon.
People from various factions, just like Hua Yinxi and her crew, began to spread information about Guo Feng.
For a time.
Guo Feng, who had just arrived, had already caused a great storm among the empire’s upper class.
At this moment, Guo Feng, completely unaware of all this, had already flown out of the Lower District with Mo Daoqing.
They arrived dozens of kilometers outside the Imperial Capital City.
“Sect Master Senior Brother, you asked me to see you off, so you must have something to tell me, right?”
Guo Feng asked, looking at Mo Daoqing.
To be honest, he only felt a sense of appreciation for Mo Daoqing now.
There was a slight feeling of kindred spirits.
As for deep feelings, that was impossible.
As a person from modern Chinese civilization, he didn’t have much feeling for so-called sects.
“Yes.”
Mo Daoqing nodded, “Actually, the Empress’s favoritism is already very obvious. Have you ever thought about why she took back the imperial decree in your hand and still wants you to be punished at the Prison Punishment Division? In fact, it’s completely unnecessary.”
“Is there some deeper meaning in this?”
Guo Feng raised an eyebrow.
Mo Daoqing chuckled, “My purpose in coming to the Imperial Capital this time was for Nineteenth Junior Brother, which is your Nineteenth Senior Brother.”
“He joined our Sumi Sect less than thirty years ago, but his cultivation has already reached the Nine-Rank Eighth Layer.”
“A year ago, it was his turn to come out and handle affairs, but for some unknown reason, he annihilated a noble family.”
“He was immediately apprehended by the Grand Manager under the Empress’s command, leading the Ten Regular Attendants, and was suppressed in the Prison Punishment Division’s Heavenly Prison.”
“I came this time to rescue him.”
“Originally, I intended to negotiate with the Empress, but I didn’t expect to meet you.”
“I just wanted you to go to the Prison Punishment Division, find your Nineteenth Senior Brother, understand the situation, and then make plans.”
“But I didn’t expect it to escalate to the point where the Empress herself came.”
“Now that the Empress has asked you to go to the Prison Punishment Division, it might be related to your Nineteenth Senior Brother.”
He paused here, “So, when you go to the Prison Punishment Division, find an opportunity to meet your Nineteenth Senior Brother, clarify the situation, and I will wait for your news here.”
“Oh?!”
Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, not expecting there to be such reasons behind it.
No wonder Mo Daoqing directly attacked the Taiyi Sect.
However, even so, Guo Feng still felt that Mo Daoqing was very courageous.
And he only caused trouble for the Taiyi Sect!
He then nodded, “Since that’s the case, I will go to the Prison Punishment Division and ask Nineteenth Senior Brother for clarification.”
“Alright.”
Mo Daoqing nodded, then told Guo Feng the general information about Nineteenth Senior Brother.
It turned out that Nineteenth Senior Brother’s real name was Qin Tian.
Nine-Rank Eighth Layer!
Such a powerful expert was actually imprisoned in the Prison Punishment Division, which shows that the Prison Punishment Division, or rather, this Imperial Capital, truly had experts everywhere.
This made Guo Feng even more aware that he must coexist peacefully with the Yan Yang Empire.
Unless absolutely necessary, he must not escalate conflicts.
Otherwise, although they had many internal conflicts here and various forces constrained each other.
However, their true strength was still far beyond China’s current level.
The gap was truly too great!
“Alright, Sect Master Senior Brother, I’ll go first. After I get the news, I’ll come find you!”
Guo Feng then didn’t delay and flew directly back to the Imperial Capital.
He returned to the Shangdu District!
The Prison Punishment Division was also in the Shangdu District.
Guo Feng casually asked someone for directions and found the place.
In a short while, he arrived in front of a group of buildings with outer walls as black as ink, grand in architecture but giving off a chilling and terrifying aura.
In front of these buildings, there was a huge archway.
On the archway, made of black stone, were three golden characters—‘Prison Punishment Division’!
At this moment, a familiar person happened to walk out of the Prison Punishment Division.
This person was none other than Feng Zirong.
Feng Zirong’s aura was weak, and her face was pale, clearly due to having suffered the hundred-staff punishment earlier.
“Guo Feng?”
Feng Zirong raised an eyebrow.
Guo Feng nodded: “Commander Feng, we meet again. Are you leaving?”
“Yes.”
Feng Zirong replied indifferently.
Guo Feng chuckled, “Then don’t leave. Come in with me and show me the way.”
“??”
Feng Zirong’s face turned green.
She didn’t want to stay in a dreadful place like the Prison Punishment Division for another moment.
Guo Feng wanted her to lead the way?
Was he sick?
She quickly refused with a stern face, “Sorry, I have something to do.”
“Oh.”
Guo Feng smiled slightly and took out the Minglong Spirit Blade, “If you don’t lead the way, then I’ll have to fight you again. At worst, we’ll both be punished.”
“You—”
Feng Zirong’s mouth twitched violently.
How shameless!
However, when she thought of the hundred-staff punishment, she took a deep breath, “Alright, follow me!”
She said, huffing and puffing as she went inside.
“That’s more like it.”
Guo Feng smiled and followed her.
