386: Marquis Xiang of Qin, traitor!

“I, Guo Feng, am the Wind King personally appointed by the Empress, a third-rank Duke, and the Wind Rider Grand General of the Tianyan Lion Army!”

Guo Feng said coldly, his aura surging outwards.

The city guards of Qin Wang City were all swept away, unable to get close to Guo Feng.

At the same time, an imperial decree appeared in his hand, “This is an imperial decree personally bestowed by the Empress. Seeing the imperial decree is like seeing the Empress. Why do you not kneel!?”

“Ah?”

“An imperial decree?”

“The Wind King?”

Everyone present was from a secluded corner, having never truly seen a significant figure from the Imperial Capital.

They didn't even know of the existence of an imperial decree!

When they heard Guo Feng's words, they were all stunned.

However, they quickly knelt down, bowing in unison: “Greetings to the Empress!”

“Ah? It’s you?!”

At this moment, the ninth-rank expert from the State Duke's residence finally realized Guo Feng's identity.

He had never met Guo Feng.

However, he had heard of Guo Feng's great name!

He had come this time specifically to secretly help the Imperial Relative deal with Guo Feng!

Guo Feng stepped on the ninth-rank expert's face and said indifferently, “The Imperial Relative conspired to rebel and sent you to collude with Qin Xiang Duke. I caught you red-handed. Now I will cripple your cultivation and apprehend you. When my crew returns to the capital, I will hand you over to the Prison Punishment Division for interrogation!”

As he spoke, his foot moved to the man's lower abdomen.

A terrifying Fire Emperor Qi instantly surged out, blasting into the man's dantian.

His terrifying power was something this person could not withstand!

“Ah——”

The man didn't even have time to beg for mercy before Guo Feng directly crippled two hundred years of his cultivation.

His face was pale, his eyes filled with pain and resentment.

His whole body trembled with pain!

A terrifying wave of energy surged from his body, forming a hurricane that sent everyone present stumbling!

“Guo Feng, you are so ruthless!”

“I cultivated for two hundred years, and it was all destroyed by you in an instant!”

He let out a mournful wail!

Yan Mountain Might trembled, looking at Guo Feng's god-like figure, his heart filled with dread.

He had never feared a person so much!

At this moment, he suddenly saw a man in the distance. He quickly pointed at the man and shouted to Guo Feng, “Guo Feng… no, Wind King, that man is this ninth-rank expert's attendant. I know him!”

He was still smart!

He knew that at this moment, only by clinging tightly to Guo Feng could he have a slim chance of survival.

“No! Beast!”

The eighth-rank expert, who was secretly investigating the situation, was also from the State Duke's residence.

He had originally intended to disguise himself as a spectator.

But he didn't expect to be betrayed by Yan Mountain Might.

He didn't dare to think too much and quickly flew towards the horizon.

However, he was merely an eighth-rank expert. Guo Feng simply waved his hand, and a giant palm swept down.

Boom!

Like a ball, the man was directly slammed to the ground.

A powerful surge of energy blasted into the man's body, causing him to lose his combat ability instantly.

Guo Feng grabbed in the air.

Swish——

The man quickly slid from the ground and lay down next to the ninth-rank expert.

Guo Feng clapped his hands: “Which of you will tell me what the State Duke sent you to conspire with Qin Xiang Duke about? There aren't many opportunities, first come, first served.”

As he spoke, the killing intent emanating from him made both men tremble uncontrollably.

An immense sense of despair and fear arose within them.

“The State Duke sent us to find Qin Xiang Duke to scheme against his son, Qin Tian, wanting to obtain the secret of the ancient cave dwelling on his son's body, not for rebellion!”

The eighth-rank expert, seeing the situation, quickly answered first.

He seemed to be afraid that his leader would snatch his right to live.

“Lying!”

Bang——

As soon as the man finished speaking, Guo Feng stepped on his chest.

The Fire Emperor's power instantly surged wildly within the man's body.

Causing his entire body to crack.

His internal organs were damaged.

The intense burning pain almost killed him!

He quickly cried out, “I'm not lying, Lord Wind King, every word I say is true!”

“I'll speak, Lord Wind King, I'll speak!”

The previous ninth-rank expert, seeing this, suddenly his eyes lit up, understanding something.

Although his cultivation was crippled at this moment.

However, as long as he was alive, there would always be a way.

Moreover, at worst, he could recultivate.

Recultivation would definitely be faster than before, which was better than losing his life or having his entire body crippled.

“Good, you speak.”

Guo Feng looked indifferently at the ninth-rank expert.

The ninth-rank expert quickly said, “What he said earlier is true. The State Duke sent us here to have Qin Xiang Duke scheme against Qin Tian, obtain the secret of Qin Tian's ancient cave dwelling, and then break through to Immortal Rank without being discovered by the Chaotic Empire.”

He paused, “Then, he wants to completely suppress the Empress and become the new generation of Emperor Yan Yang.”

“Oh?”

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing on his face.

This ninth-rank expert was indeed smart.

He knew what Guo Feng wanted.

Guo Feng asked again, “And what else?”

“And… and…”

The ninth-rank expert was stunned for a moment, then quickly shouted loudly, “Yes, and! The State Duke told Qin Xiang Duke to feign an attack on Guo Wang City, then together with Guo Wang City, eradicate the Tianyan Lion Army, and take advantage of the situation to rebel and divide the Empire!”

His voice carried far.

Almost everyone within a few kilometers heard it.

“Presumptuous!”

And at this moment, an angry voice, like rolling thunder, came.

And this voice was precisely Qin Xiang Duke.

Qin Xiang Duke wore a feathered robe, his face fair and clean, possessing quite a scholarly demeanor.

His brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes spitting fire, staring intently at Guo Feng and the ninth-rank expert, “You two dare to openly frame this marquis! Guards, seize them!”

“Yes!”

At his command, dozens of voices immediately responded.

They were all experts above the eighth-rank fifth layer.

They held various magical treasures, their aura aggressive, posing a certain threat even to those above the ninth-rank fifth layer.

After all, unless one's cultivation was absolutely unrivaled.

Otherwise, under the circumstances of being outnumbered and facing powerful magical treasures, one would still be suppressed.

Therefore, in an instant, Guo Feng was surrounded.

Guo Feng laughed loudly and stretched out a hand: “Qin Zheng, you are indeed plotting rebellion, you don't even care about the imperial decree or the Empress's secret edict anymore!”

As he spoke, the Empress's secret edict and the imperial decree floated before him.

His gaze like a knife, he looked at those surrounding him: “Have you also thought carefully about whether you want to follow Qin Zheng in his treasonous acts?!”

“Ignorant child, do you think you can deceive me with two unclear items?”

Qin Zheng sneered, “You impersonate the Empress's envoy, impersonate the Wind King, your crimes are heinous. Seize him!”

“Qin Zheng, do you think your group of people can stop me? You are indeed good, at the ninth-rank seventh layer, but unfortunately, in front of me and the Wind King, you are nothing!”

And at this moment, another voice came.

It was Qin Tian, who had broken through Qin Zheng's guard group, killed dozens of people, and rushed into Qin Wang City!

At this moment, his killing intent was chilling.

His gaze was like a knife!

At the same time, Guo Feng also stretched out a hand, grasping the ninth-rank Phoenix Flight Spirit Blade, and laughed loudly: “Qin Zheng is conspiring to rebel. As the Empress's imperial envoy, I have the authority to execute first and report later. Those who do not wish to have their entire clan exterminated, retreat quickly!”

Buzz——

As he spoke, a powerful ninth-rank seventh-layer aura surged out.

Ten ultimate ninth-rank seventh-layer Phantom Spirits also stepped out from the void, trampling the air.

With this, his aura was fully unleashed!

Shocking everyone present, making their scalps tingle…
