"Little Hericium, you're finally awake." Just when Qin Zhan was confused, Qin De and Xie Yi came over.
Seeing Grandpa and Xie Yi, Qin Zhan suddenly came back to his senses: "Grandpa, Brother Xie!"
"Young Master, congratulations on your success in entering the mountain and sea realm, I admire you." Xie Yi truly admired Qin Zhan.
Others who broke through from the Xiantian Realm to the Mountain and Sea Realm experienced numerous difficulties and dangers, and even faced dangers to their lives.
But here in Qin Zhan, everything seemed to fall into place.
Not only did he break through the realm, he also rushed to the middle stage of the mountain and sea realm in one fell swoop, and his combat power was greatly improved.
Qin De patted Qin Zhan on the shoulder: "Little Hericium, how does it feel to be in the realm of mountains and seas?"
Qin Zhan touched his head and said with a smile: "I feel pretty good. I am stronger than before."
"That's natural. The biggest difference between the mountain and sea realm and the innate realm is the strength of the physical body."
As someone who has experienced this, Qin De has the most say in this matter.
Xie Yi is now in the late stage of Shanhai Realm, but he found that he became less and less confident when facing Qin Zhan.
"Young Master was able to defeat me when he was at the peak of Xiantian. Now that he has broken through the mountains and seas, his strength will make a qualitative leap. I am afraid that it is not impossible to fight against a strong person in the Pohuang Realm." Xie Yi thought to himself.
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's go back quickly, otherwise they will be worried." Qin De said.
"Um."
Immediately, Qin Zhan and the others headed back towards the imperial capital along the round trip road.
By the time they returned to Prince Wu's Mansion, it was already early morning.
But Prince Wu's Mansion was brightly lit, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.
The housekeeper Lao Xu was waiting at the door, looking anxious, obviously waiting for Qin De to come back.
"Master, young master, you are finally back!" When Lao Xu saw Qin De and his grandson coming back, he hurriedly greeted them.
"Old Xu, what's wrong?"
"Zhou Lie is here!" Old Xu said in a deep voice.
"Zhou Lie?"
Upon hearing this name, Qin De's face suddenly darkened.
Qin Zhan was confused when he heard this: "Grandpa, who is this Zhou Lie?"
"Young Master, you don't know. The fourth master's previous fiancée was from the Zhou family, a martial arts family in the Blue Moon Empire. This Zhou Lie is an uncle of the fourth master's fiancée." Butler Xu explained.
Qin De's face was extremely gloomy and he didn't say anything.
After Qin Zhan heard Butler Xu's explanation, he immediately understood.
He had only heard people talk about his fourth uncle's fiancée before. Originally, they were both at the age of discussing marriage, but later, for some unknown reason, the other party regretted their engagement.
So much so that my fourth uncle is still single to this day.
He didn't expect that his fourth uncle's fiancée was actually from the Zhou family.
Qin Zhan didn't know much about the Zhou family, and he only had a few impressions.
"Where are the four old people?"
"The fourth master is accompanying Mr. Zhou in the meeting hall." Butler Xu said.
"Let's go to the council chamber."
Qin De didn't say anything, and walked into the meeting hall with Qin Zhan and Xie Yi.
"The fourth son of the Qin family, I haven't seen you for many years. You seem to have become a lot more decadent!" As soon as he walked to the door of the meeting hall, he heard a self-righteous voice coming from inside.
"snort……"
Qin De snorted coldly, no matter how disabled Qin Yue was, he was still his son.
Moreover, he was injured while fighting for the empire, and he was disabled for the sake of millions of people.
He did not allow anyone to mock his son.
Seeing Qin De entering, Qin Yue quickly turned around and bowed.
Opposite him sat a middle-aged man with short hair, wearing a dark green mysterious robe, with unpredictable cultivation and full of aura.
Seeing Qin De walking in, the man stood up and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, but King Wu still has the same style. I admire him very much!"
Qin Zhan followed Qin De and observed this person carefully.
He looked to be in his sixties, with a proud face. He said he admired Qin De, but there was no hint of timidity on his face.
Obviously, this person is Zhou Lie, the younger brother of the head of the Zhou family, and his status is very respected.
What's more important is that this person is not afraid at all when faced with Qin De's aura of the sixth level of breaking the delusion realm.
"Could it be that this person is actually a powerful person who breaks the delusion realm?"
Anyone who can talk to Qin De like this is definitely not weaker than Qin De in terms of strength and status.
Qin De glanced at Zhou Lie indifferently: "Zhou Lie, I remember that you said that you would never step into the gate of my Prince Wu's Mansion again in this life, and you broke your promise so quickly?"
Qin De didn't give him any face at all. When they met, he brought up old things and mocked him.
The corner of Zhou Lie's mouth twitched: "King Wu, what is the saying that business cannot be done with justice? Our two families cannot become in-laws, but there is no need to be intolerant of each other!"
Qin De sneered: "I, the Qin family, don't dare to climb high. You can go back and forth wherever you come from. I won't send you away!"
Zhou Lie's face darkened. He didn't expect Qin De to be so disrespectful to him.
Everyone is at the sixth level of the Delusion Realm, so it’s hard to say who is afraid of whom.
It's just that Zhou Lie came here this time because he had something to do. Although he felt unhappy, he didn't have a direct attack.
"King Wu, I won't say any more nonsense. I'm here today to care about the future of the Blue Moon Empire." Zhou Lie didn't continue to dwell on the past with Qin De and went straight to the point.
At their level, no matter how many strategies they use, it's useless. It's better to just go straight.
Talk about something!
When Qin De heard what he said, he smiled disdainfully: "For the future of the empire? Do you think this king is a three-year-old child?"
Nowadays, the vassals in the Blue Moon Empire are in turmoil and bandits are causing chaos, and the royal family has no time to take care of it.
The fiefdom where the Zhou family is located belongs to King Chenliu.
As soon as Zhou Lie said these words, Qin De had already guessed his purpose.
It seems that these feudal kings cannot sit still anymore.
Their own fiefdom could no longer satisfy their desires, and they wanted to go further.
"King Wu, you can't say that. How dare you say that the Blue Moon Empire has become what it is today and it has nothing to do with you?" Zhou Lie said back unceremoniously.
It was because Prince Wu's Mansion completely fell out with the royal family that the Blue Moon Empire was in turmoil.
There are rumors in the outside world that Prince Wu's Mansion wants to establish himself as emperor and dominate the world.
"So what if there is a relationship, so what if there is no relationship?"
Qin De scolded: "Is it possible that you, a vassal family, still want to reach out to the imperial capital?"
Qin De's words were a slap in his face.
Zhou Lie suddenly became angry with embarrassment: "Qin De, you are too arrogant. Everyone is in the realm of breaking arrogance. How dare you be so arrogant?"
"I have always been arrogant. You didn't know it until now." Qin De said, "Looking at the fact that we are old acquaintances, I would like to advise you not to try to get involved in the imperial power, otherwise..."
"What else?"
Zhou Lie said nonchalantly: "My Zhou family is a century-old family. Even King Chen Liu would like to look at my Zhou family's face, let alone you Qin De."
"You, the Zhou family, can only join in the trouble with people like Chen Liuwang."
"This is a naked insult. Do you want to cause a war between the two races?" Zhou Lie was furious.
Why is this Qin De's temper so hot?
He originally wanted to be patient, as long as he could achieve his goal, it wouldn't hurt if Qin De said a few words.
But who would have thought that Qin De would be full of firepower and would trample Zhou Lie under his feet as soon as he opened his mouth?
Everyone was in the delusion state, and Zhou Lie suddenly felt that his dignity had been trampled on.
He simply couldn't bear it and scolded Qin De directly.
