The Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 152: A Brewing Storm

Chu Tianjiao left the room where her father was. All the citizens in Chu did not know that Emperor Chu was tormented by illness and was always in bed. Even high-end medicinal pills had no effect on curing diseases.

Emperor Chu still remembered that this illness began when Qin Wu died. It slowly deteriorated until the current state.

Chu Tianjiao stood outside the large hall. Standing tall and attentive on both sides of the entrance were a few of the Bloody Empire's bodyguards that resembled motionless statues.

“First task, collect 10 Yuanfu level Dragon Guards. From today onwards, no one is allowed to approach my master's father. Remember, no one is allowed. Nonexistent

"Second task, deliver my orders on the front line, implement the decapitation plan."

"Task three, inform the Black Fortress to strengthen their defenses and send people to monitor Qin Wu. Under no circumstances will he be allowed to escape. "

“Fourth task, send people to monitor the clans who hold military authority in the Royal Capital. If their family shows any signs of strange movements, control them immediately, or destroy them all. ”

"The fifth task ..." Chu Tianjiao was silent for a moment before continuing. "Forget it, I will head myself to negotiate matters with the Nine Mystical Palace."

This time, the position of the first soldier had been taken by the Star Emperor Academy, but the Nine Mystical Palace would definitely not let their plans die.

And thus, this should be the time to scrape this troubled academy from Chu. Luo Tianya and Luo Qianqiu would definitely send people to help him with this task.

The statue-like guards disappeared silently as they went to execute Chu Tianjiao's orders. It was as if they had never existed in the first place.

Chu Tianjiao turned. He stared at the depths of the great hall, nodding in satisfaction as he stared at the heavily guarded room. He did not believe that there would be anyone who could infiltrate him.

After an unknown amount of time had passed since Chu Tianjiao gave his orders, the Chu State was like an automatic machine. The largest transportation company, Sky Transport Network, is also becoming more lively.

At the same time Chu Tianjiao relayed his orders, in the depths of the Dark Forest, that silent and dark prison remained as cold and as strong as before as if it had always been there since ancient times.

A horse carriage arrived outside the Black Stronghold, when an inside figure took out a medallion of authority. Immediately after, the Black Stronghold gate was opened, and a line of silhouettes walked slowly and entered the Black Stronghold.

This line of unknown figures stopped outside one's cell. The prisoner in the cell was sitting on the ground. This prisoner was none other than Qin Wu.

"Open the door." The person who held the medallion of authority coldly declared.

The prison warden stared at the figure, and after a moment of hesitation, he complied and grabbed the key, unlocking the cell door.

The figure with the authority medal continued in a cold voice. "Open the chain."

"No way." The prison guard denied. No one has that level of authority.

Puchis! Even before his voice faded, a long spear entered from behind, piercing right into his heart while the hand of an unknown figure pressed down on his mouth, holding back his death cry. The prison warden slumped to the ground before closing his eyes forever.

The figure with the medallion searched for a corpse for the key, and he unlocked the chain that bound Qin Wu, as well as removing the torn and tattered cloak that Qin Wu was wearing.

Qin Wu still closed his eyes as he stood up slowly. After which, one of the unknown figures took out a new set of clothes and placed it on Qin Wu's body, as if they were doing something very ordinary.

"Running out of prison!"

Suddenly, alarm sounds rang out from the patrolling guards. The group of unknown figures also began to move, with killing intent flowing in waves from their bodies.

Qin Wu's eyes finally opened. Inside, there was no sharp flash of light. Instead, an incredible calm could be seen inside.

"Is everything ready?" Ask Qin Wu.

"Not yet." The figure answered. However, there were no fluctuations on Qin Wu's face. It was as if everything was in his prediction.

"After young master Qin Chuan was saved and the balance line broke, Chu Tianjiao had already started moving. If we do not take swift action, Chu Tianjiao can silence the esteemed General at any time. Without choice, we can only put forward our plan, ” replied the person. Even after so many years, he still referred to Qin Wu as 'General'.

"In the end, do we still really have to make an enemy out of Chu?" Qin Wu sighed.

"From the moment King Wu died, everything was already determined. The twelve generals all vowed to avenge King Wu's death, and after the next generation of the general's bloodline grew, they also swore blood. It was all because the General always held on in silence and did not give the final order. My father and several other uncles could only use the guise of retreat as a form of progress, building their strength in secret and beginning a long and endless wait.

The figure whispered in a low voice, but the words he spoke were filled with a heavy sense.

It was as if there was a huge secret behind King Wu's death.

Once, King Wu shook the world, helping previous Emperors to conquer the world, and conquer enemy forces in all directions.

However, when all the rabbits were killed, the dogs would be boiled and eaten.

This piece of history was known only to the generals who stood at the forefront during wartime.

And to the citizens of Chu, the truth was distorted before it reached their ears.

No one knows the truth about what happened. This piece of history, although seemingly desolate on the surface, actually had a violent storm emerging.

Back when King Wu had died and the Qin Residence had moved to Sky Harmony City, these elite soldiers no longer reported to the Qin Residence, and instead they scattered in four directions.

Chu Tianjiao naturally knew about this. With how prosperous the Chu Country was, its informant network capability was also extremely powerful.

And thus, Chu Tianjiao did not have the intention to kill Qin Wu and Qin Chuan, because he could almost confirm that if Qin Wu were to die, it would be for Qin Wu to die, The state of Chu will be involved in the midst of a terrible tornado. The power of the power hidden in the darkness was enough to overthrow their imperial authority.

Chu Tianjiao did not move, Qin Wu also reflected his actions, which led to the birth of a fragile balance line.

But after the events of Jun Lin's Supper, a gap opened wide in this fragile balance line, causing the balance between the two sides to tilt. Therefore, Chu Tianjiao decided not to wait anymore.

Today, the envoys from the Sky Transport Network are secretly sending intelligence to various places in Chu. Not only that, they even stepped into the borders of other countries.

It was as if there would be a terrifying storm coming at Chu soon.

And with regards to everything that happened, only the privileged few in Chu had a premonition about it. The majority of the citizens still live their own lives, without any knowledge of what will happen.

Even Qin Chuan did not know about this.

Qin Wu had never mentioned this to her before.

It was the same for Qin He and Qin Ye, who were fighting on the front lines.

Qin Wentian, was naturally also in darkness.

In his heart, grandfather Qin was a gentle and gentle person who did not even bear the slightest resemblance to the generals who had experienced countless wars.

For him, Qin Wu loves peace and solitude and has a friendly personality. Other than this, there was no other impression Qin Wentian could remember of Qin Wu.

Even Qin Chuan did not bother Qin Wu much. The father and son duo did not meet often.

————–

At the Qin Wentian residence in the Emperor Star Academy's courtyard, Qin Yao prepared a table of food and wine. The three of them ate happily and enjoyed the simple pleasure of eating together as a family.

"It's almost time for another memorial festival. Another year has passed. I wonder if your mother is still in Sky Harmony City. ”As Qin Chuan thought of his wife, sadness appeared in his heart. It's been a year. He must be very worried about her.

"Dad, Mom should have moved back to Sky Harmony City. When are you planning to travel back? Let's go see Mom and make her happy. "

Qin Yao used her chopsticks and gave some vegetables to Qin Chuan, as she happily replied.

"Mk." Qin Chuan nodded, "There are also 2nd and 3rd brothers. I don't have any accurate news about them, and of course, I don't have any, your grandfather Qin Wu is still suffering inside the Black Stronghold. "

"Grandfather will be fine."

Qin Wentian smiled as if he was comforting Qin Chuan.

“Good child, once you grow up, you will become stronger. At that time, even the Chu Imperial Clan will be afraid of you. "Qin Chuan ruffled Qin Wentian's hair. After a year, Qin Wentian's features had lost most of their childish nature and become adults.

But no matter how old he was, in Qin Chuan's heart, Qin Wentian would forever be a child.

On the way back, Qin Yao told Qin Chuan the story of how powerful Qin Wentian was today. A smile of excitement filled Qin Chuan's heart with gratitude. He never expected that Qin Wentian would actually reach this stage in just one year.

"Young brother Qin."

At this moment, a figure appeared, standing in the distant pavilion as he called out.

"Senior Martial Brother, is something wrong?" Qin Wentian walked over. This person was one of those charged with investigating the murder, as well as one of the 'protectors' responsible for his safety.

The Star Emperor Academy took yesterday's assassination attempt very seriously.

“Based on the detailed investigation, the academy already has some suspects in mind. The result should come out immediately. "

Qin Wentian's eyes flickered, as a sharp glint of light could be seen in his eyes. "Thank you for your hard work."

"And one more thing. Xiao Lu sent people to ask our Star Emperor Academy to hand over Qin Yao. They wanted him to return to Snowcloud with them. "

"Tell them to get away." The glint of light in Qin Wentian's eyes grew colder by several degrees. Xiao L's attitude had been made clear in accordance with the events that happened back then in Jun Lin Banquet.

“Academy will deal with this issue. And one more thing, Elder Ren asked, when do you want to visit the Heavenly Star Pavilion? ”Senior was smiling as if this was the real reason why he came today. Ren Qianxing hoped that Qin Wentian would be able to ascend to the 7th level of the Heavenly Star Pavilion as soon as possible.

"Picture, I'll be there as soon as possible." Qin Wentian. He also wanted to know what secret in the 7th level would cause even a power like the Nine Mystic Palaces to react so strongly, he said, out all and even used despicable methods to ensure that Luo Qianqiu would become the champion of Jun Lin Banquet.

"Okay, keep working hard." Senior patted Qin Wentian on his shoulder and left. In his heart, he was also very curious about the secrets in the tier 7 Heavenly Star Pavilion, but it was a pity; he was not the champion of Jun Lin's Banquet and did not have the qualifications to enter.
