824 Those Who Touch Fenghai’s Reverse Scale, Die! (1)

In the area of the Ten Guts Trees, the bright moon hung high up in the sky. Amidst the pitch-black canopy, it seemed to stand out distinctly.

Yet occasional clouds drifted before the moon, gradually obscuring the clear distinction between the two sides.

Just like the hidden undercurrents present within the palace banquet at this moment.

This undercurrent caused the situation between Fenghai County and the Holy Wave Large Region to turn chaotic.

Some things, when said by Xu Qing and Kong Xianglong, were natural. They had experienced the battlefield and seen all the changes that Fenghai County had experienced. They were witnesses to everything.

However, it was inappropriate for Zhang Qifan to say them.

Although he was from Fenghai County, he hadn’t experienced all of this. It was as if an outsider was expressing the grievances of others, pretending to deeply understand and share their anger as if it was their own.

This was too deliberate.

And evidently, the development of events might not have been so deliberate initially.

But due to Xu Qing’s heightened understanding, he prevented Kong Xianglong from getting angry, causing the situation to change. The manipulator behind the scenes had to make hasty adjustments and introduce an outsider to deliver the lines that should have belonged to Xu Qing and Kong Xianglong.

Continuing to develop everything according to the manipulator’s intended direction, the situation continued to unfold, growing even more murky.

As for what impact this matter would have on Fenghai County, the orchestrator clearly didn’t care.

The focus of all these maneuvers was quite evident – it was directed against the Seventh Prince.

So, the answer was actually quite obvious.

Xu Qing wasn’t the only one who understood. Most of the people who were at the banquet were clear about this.

Even though there had been praises sung for the Seventh Prince in previous conversations, language was one of the most unpredictable things in this world.

Those who believed in it would be giving the initiative to the person who spoke.

Kong Xianglong looked at Xu Qing. Xu Qing was expressionless, as though he didn’t hear Zhang Qifan’s words. He then turned and walked out.

Kong Xianglong was the same. Although he was burly and looked careless, he was actually a meticulous person. However, he still needed experience, so he didn’t react immediately.

At this moment, he understood the situation and knew that Fenghai County was used as a knife to probe the Seventh Prince. He wasn’t willing to partic.i.p.ate.

After all, stability was the foremost requirement for the current situation in Fenghai County. Additionally, the power struggles within the imperial family could turn exceedingly b.l.o.o.d.y or instantly transform from hostility into friendship. Those caught in the middle usually didn’t fare well.

One moment they were pieces on the board, the next they might become sacrifices.

The two of them ignored everything and prepared to leave. This caused everyone at the banquet to have different thoughts.

A deep glint appeared in Meng Yunbai’s eyes as he smiled.

Princess Anhai was expressionless.

The Seventh Prince picked up the wine gla.s.s and took a sip. His expression didn’t change at all.

As for Zhang Qifan, his gaze flashed imperceptibly and anger filled his face. He flicked his sleeve and was about to leave as well.

However, at the next moment, the very straightforward Luo Jinsong’s eyes widened and he looked like a boor. His neck was red and veins bulged.

He suddenly stood up, his Nascent Soul’s aura erupting into a storm, forming a tempest. A ma.s.sive phantom materialized behind him, clad in armored battle attire. As it appeared, an aura of malevolence surged.

On the armor, there were 12 imprints that looked like totems. Every mark was Luo Jinsong’s face.

Moreover, the fluctuations emitted by each face contained the heavenly mandates. They had experienced a life tribulation.

At that moment, the ferocious intent spread out. He took a step forward and headed straight for Zhang Qifan at the speed of lightning.

“Impudent!”

Luo Jinsong attacked furiously. Zhang Qifan also turned his head and emitted killing intent. He raised his right hand and grabbed the air, directly drawing a blood-colored longsword. His left hand even performed a series of hand seals and pressed on his glabella.

In an instant, a demonic aura erupted from his body and wings instantly grew on his back. His body withered like a skeleton. He held the blood sword and fought Luo Jinsong.

At this moment, three people from the crowd suddenly rushed out and headed straight for Zhang Qifan.

In a four-on-one battle, there was no suspense at all. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Qifan spat out a mouthful of blood and the blood sword in his hand collapsed. His body staggered back to Xu Qing and Kong Xianglong’s side.

Kong Xianglong frowned. Xu Qing’s expression was calm and he didn’t bother with him. He continued to walk out. He felt that this was a farce. The methods of the person who set up the trap were very crude.

At this moment, Luo Jinsong, who was emitting a baleful aura, sneered.

“Although Kong Liangxiu seems to have made a lot of contributions, he was greedy and rash to have such an outcome. If he was calmer and persisted for another fifteen minutes, wouldn’t the Seventh Highness’ reinforcements have arrived?”

“You can’t blame others for his death!”

As soon as Luo Jinsong finished speaking, Xu Qing, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks. His gaze instantly turned cold. Kong Xianglong, who was beside him, was even more furious. He abruptly turned his head and stared fixedly at Luo Jinsong.

“You f*cking fart!”

Kong Xianglong couldn’t hold it in anymore. This humiliation had reached a point where he couldn’t hold it in anymore. Hence, as he let out a low shout, he took out his command sword and transmitted his voice. After that, he took a step forward.

However, Xu Qing’s hand pressed onto Kong Xianglong’s shoulder.

Kong Xianglong was currently in the Fake Nascent Soul stage and could break through in a few months. Hence, it wasn’t suitable for him to fight against Luo Jinsong, who was at the First Tribulation of the Nascent Soul Realm.

The instant he pressed down on Kong Xianglong, Xu Qing took a step forward. His speed was so fast that he instantly appeared in front of Luo Jinsong who was letting out a powerful aura.

A cold glint appeared in his eyes. The name and glory of the Palace Master couldn’t be humiliated. This was his bottom line and also the reverse scale of Fenghai County.
