397: Human Palace

As the guard's voice fell, the entire hall instantly became silent.

The various powerhouses of the Human Clan who were originally eager to try now showed guilty expressions.

They had just been discussing how to deal with him here, and now he was here. Could it be that he had ears that could hear from afar and got the news?

Shen Sanqian's face darkened, while Yin Jiuxiao said with a hint of inexplicable smile, "Brother Shen, there's no need to worry. Perhaps his arrival isn't necessarily to trouble us. I shall take my leave first. Brother Shen, please give me a reply as soon as you've considered it."

After Yin Jiuxiao finished speaking, his entire body continuously twisted, and then completely disappeared from the hall, evidently having left using a secret technique.

The many Human Clan powerhouses remained silent, while the guard at the door awkwardly asked Shen Sanqian, "Your Majesty, should we let him in?"

"Please invite him in!"

Shen Sanqian sighed.

What else could be done in this situation other than inviting him in? If they tried to stop him even slightly, he might just directly force his way in. At that time, whether others suffered losses or not, he didn't know, but his own Sunset Dynasty's Imperial City would definitely be the first to suffer...

Besides Yin Jiuxiao of the Ghost Clan who left, the others were also present, but they all looked flustered. It was just that they didn't have the means to leave like Yin Jiuxiao. If they could leave without anyone knowing, they would have run away long ago.

And now they could only face what was about to happen together with Shen Sanqian...

A moment later.

Qin Feng swaggered to the entrance of the hall under the guidance of a guard. After stopping, Qin Feng's gaze fell upon everyone, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Which one of you is the Emperor of the Sunset Dynasty?"

...

The scene was silent. Cold sweat streamed down Shen Sanqian's back, yet he had no choice but to step forward. At this moment, he couldn't even bother with imperial etiquette. His face was sallow as he replied, "I am. What is it?"

"I'm looking for you to inquire about someone."

After saying that, Qin Feng stopped talking. He slowly walked in from the entrance of the hall, casually found an empty chair and sat down, then looked at the others with a cold gaze.

Seeing this, everyone immediately retreated on their own accord, leaving only Qin Feng and Shen Sanqian in the hall.

At this moment, Shen Sanqian felt a little better.

Because the other party didn't make a move and even wanted to talk to him alone, the relationship didn't seem so bad. After hesitating for a moment, Shen Sanqian opened his mouth and asked, "God Child, what are your instructions?"

"I heard that many years ago, there was a Martial Artist among the common people of your Sunset Dynasty who could absorb the power of Immortal Jade and also gained a Spiritual Root because of it. Do you know where this person is now?"

"Martial Artist?"

Shen Sanqian frowned and immediately said, "The God Child is probably talking about Zhang Liang, the Commander of my Imperial Guards. More than forty years ago, he was a Martial Artist without a Spiritual Root but with extremely powerful martial arts talent. Later, he was poisoned by an enemy and was on the verge of death. By chance, he absorbed the power of Immortal Jade to save his life. Why is the God Child looking for him?"

Qin Feng didn't speak, just stared straight at him.

Shen Sanqian immediately understood that he had said too much.

He immediately issued an order for someone to notify Zhang Liang, the Commander of the Imperial Guards, to come to the hall. Qin Feng closed his eyes to rest, while Shen Sanqian was like sitting on pins and needles, constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

He waited for a full half an hour.

A burly man walked into the hall.

"Your humble subject greets the Emperor!"

The man prostrated on the ground, while Shen Sanqian immediately waved his hand, signaling him to rise.

Qin Feng silently sized up the man. He was likely seventy or eighty years old, possessed a top-grade water Spiritual Root, and had already condensed a Nascent Soul Dharma appearance, appearing to be in the mid-stage of Nascent Soul. Other than that, there was nothing particularly special about him.

It's estimated that the people of the Sunset Dynasty had also researched this for a long time before this, after all, Immortal Jade is an extremely rare item in the world, but it is basically only used for Artifact Refining. It is simply impossible for ordinary people to absorb the power of Immortal Jade...

Zhang Liang rose and glanced at Qin Feng curiously, then cupped his hands to Shen Sanqian again and said, "Your Majesty, what instructions do you have for this old subject?"

"I have nothing to do with you. It's this God Child who is looking for you."

"Zhang Liang greets the God Child." He cupped his hands and bowed again.

Qin Feng nodded, then opened his mouth and asked, "Was your previous absorption of Immortal Jade accidental or did you have a special method?"

"Reporting to the God Child, I have practiced martial arts since I was young. That incident of absorbing the power of Immortal Jade was merely accidental. Afterwards, I also tried many times, but I was unable to absorb the power of Immortal Jade again."

...

Are there really coincidences in this world?

Qin Feng didn't believe it. His ability to absorb the power of Immortal Jade must have been due to some kind of Opportunity. After asking many detailed questions, Qin Feng felt that the root of all this lay in the Cultivation Technique he practiced when he was a Martial Artist. Ordinary people couldn't see the profoundness of the technique, but perhaps he could?

At Qin Feng's request, Shen Sanqian reluctantly had someone retrieve the martial arts manual that Zhang Liang had once practiced from the national treasury of the Sunset Dynasty.

Martial Artists and Cultivators are different. Although both have manuals, one relies purely on honing physical strength and skills, while the other controls Spirit Power and can move mountains and fill seas. There is simply no comparison.

When Qin Feng held the Cultivation Technique that Zhang Liang had once practiced in his hands, his heart immediately filled with anticipation.

This Cultivation Technique was no different from ordinary books. Due to its age, its exterior was sallow and filled with a decaying aura. Opening the cover of the technique, one could see written on the second page: Dragon Elephant Internal Energy Heart Sutra.

Although these six characters were ordinary, Qin Feng's heart began to pound because the familiar prompt text in his vision also appeared!

[Dragon Elephant Internal Energy Heart Sutra: No quality, simplified from a former immortal technique. After cultivating, it can strengthen the Physical Body, making it invulnerable to swords and spears, and allowing one to move like flying...

Can be synthesized: Dragon Elephant Nine Revolutions Technique.]

At this moment, Qin Feng also believed that Zhang Liang absorbing the Immortal Jade was accidental.

After all, this was a simplified immortal technique. It wasn't impossible for the body to erupt with some potential when facing a great crisis. And now that he was a cultivator, after the cultivator's techniques encompassed the Dragon Elephant Internal Energy Heart Sutra, he could no longer Cultivate the power of Immortal Jade, or perhaps he hadn't reached a life-and-death critical moment...

All in all, this Cultivation Technique was the right one to find!

Qin Feng was in a great mood and said to the two of them, "I find this Cultivation Technique quite interesting. It's mine now. Do you have any conditions?"

Zhang Liang shook his head, indicating that he had no conditions.

This thing was already owned by the Sunset Dynasty anyway. Moreover, his family, including the Sunset Dynasty, had made many copies, and it wasn't a rare item.

Just as Qin Feng's gaze fell upon Shen Sanqian, he cautiously said, "God Child, could you please let my daughter return... She must have realized her mistake while she was with you."

"I will let her return when the time comes."

Qin Feng said indifferently, then directly left the hall. He naturally could sense the people hiding in the dark, but Qin Feng simply couldn't be bothered with these small fries...

"Brother Shen, why did that person come looking for you?"

Not long after Qin Feng left, many people immediately flooded into the hall.
