The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"What happened?"

Wang Hao, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, pushed open the door and came out, frowning as he spoke.

A vague sense of foreboding already lingered in his heart.

He returned to the manor early today because he learned of Qin Feng's plan, and to be on the safe side, he even sent Jiang Xin out.

Could something have happened to Qin Feng?

If Qin Feng also dies, then both of the direct descendants of the number one manor in the world will be gone!

He was too ashamed to face Qin Yu again.

Don't underestimate Qin Yu just because he's a commoner; he's actually a high-ranking official in the Great Zhou Dynasty, serving as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Moreover, Qin Yu is his brother-in-law.

However, Wang Hao actually harbored a slight sense of fear towards Qin Yu.

The main problem is that his brother-in-law is just too terrifying.

Even among the Wang family of Taiyuan, there are few who can compare to Qin Yu.

More importantly, he knew Qin Yu extremely well.

Qin Yu has always kept a low profile because of his two sons and the Qin family of Huaiyin.

Without his two sons and the Qin family of Huaiyin, Qin Yu would have nothing left to fear!

Even Wang Hao was filled with apprehension towards such a person.

Qin Yan is dead. Although Qin Yu is angry, it is not enough to drive him mad.

Qin Feng is different!

Qin Feng's swordsmanship talent is no less than Qin Yu's. In Qin Yu's eyes, this is Qin Feng in his youth!

Qin Feng is the future head of the number one manor in the world, and the future patriarch of the Qin family of Huaiyin!

"Young Master Qin Feng is dead..."

The Wang family retainer from Taiyuan took a deep breath to calm his agitated emotions and said in a trembling voice.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hao's pupils contracted, his scalp tingled, and he felt a chill rise up his spine, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Seeing that Wang Hao remained silent, the Taiyuan Wang family retainer lowered his head, held his breath, and dared not utter a sound.

As a retainer of the Taiyuan Wang clan, he knew very well what Qin Feng's death meant for the number one manor in the world and for the entire Taiyuan Wang clan.

Qin Feng is no longer just the heir to the number one manor in the world and the Qin family of Huaiyin.

He is also the future unparalleled master of the Wang family of Taiyuan.

Qin Feng's death is a huge loss for the Wang family of Taiyuan.

Qin Feng's death might even provoke Qin Yu, the master of the number one manor in the world, driving this peerless expert, known as the number one sword god in the world, into madness.

How did Feng'er die?

After a long silence, Wang Hao opened his mouth and said in a strained voice.

"Reporting to Master, Young Master Qin Feng died by Chu Xiu's sword."

"Young Master Qin Feng fought a fair duel with Chu Xiu, and was ultimately killed by Chu Xiu with a single sword strike."

After considering it for a moment, the Wang family of Taiyuan said.

"Where is Old Jiang?"

"Why didn't Old Jiang keep an eye on Feng'er?"

Wang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, and he glared angrily at the Taiyuan Wang family's retainer, rebuking him furiously.

He was really angry.

Last time, I asked Jiang Xin to secretly protect Qin Yan, and Qin Yan died as a result...

Now, Jiang Xin was secretly protecting Qin Feng, and Qin Feng is dead too!

Even if Jiang Xin was an old man by his father's side, even if he was a master of the Taiyuan Wang clan, how could he compare to Qin Feng?

Even if Jiang Xin dies, Qin Feng cannot be harmed.

If he hadn't still retained some rationality, he would have already said those words.

"...Old Jiang is also dead."

"After Young Master Qin Feng was killed, Elder Jiang took action."

"However, unexpectedly, the Imperial Advisor appeared and killed Elder Jiang."

The Wang family of Taiyuan spoke cautiously.

Wang Hao fell completely silent. Jiang Xin was dead, so he naturally couldn't blame him anymore.

Moreover, now that Jiang Xin is dead, the number one expert of the Taiyuan Wang clan in the capital has also been lost.

To his surprise, the Imperial Advisor Qi Tianchen actually made a move.

It's clear that Qi Tianchen has been paying close attention to this matter, and may even be secretly protecting Chu Xiu.

Otherwise, Qi Tianchen's appearance would never have been so coincidental.

Wang Hao sighed. This time, the Taiyuan Wang clan had truly suffered a heavy loss. He waved his hand listlessly at the offerings of the Taiyuan Wang clan and remained silent.

The Wang family retainer from Taiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Wang Hao, and then disappeared from the spot.

"It seems I need to make a trip to the number one manor in the world myself."

Wang Hao shook his head. He took a step and disappeared from the residence of the Vice Minister of Rites, turning into a streak of light and vanishing into the horizon.

Half an hour later.

The number one estate in the world.

One after another, figures seemed to appear out of thin air in the number one manor in the world.

These figures were the guards of the Number One Manor under Heaven, who had returned from outside the capital with Qin Feng's body.

"Greetings, Jiang Gongfeng."

Upon seeing Jiang He, the enshrined priest of the Number One Manor under Heaven, holding Qin Feng's corpse, the guards at the main gate of the Number One Manor were about to bow when they realized that the corpse he was holding was...

Qin Feng!

In an instant.

The guards at the main gate of the Number One Manor in the World looked terrified, as if the sky had fallen.

Jiang He ignored the guards and instead carried Qin Feng's body as he sped toward the depths of the Number One Manor.

Dozens of guards from the number one manor in the world quickly followed.

In a blink of an eye.

Jiang He carried Qin Feng's body to the innermost courtyard of the Number One Manor, knelt down, and cried out with bloodshot eyes, "Manor Master, something has happened to the Young Master..."

Dozens of guards from the number one manor in the world also knelt down, their faces filled with pain.

The words just fell!

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed through the courtyard.

The door to one of the rooms exploded and shattered, as if transforming into terrifyingly sharp swords that swept outwards in all directions.

However, Jiang He and the others showed no intention of dodging these sword-like fragments.

Or rather, they simply didn't dare to dodge.

These fragments pierced through their bodies, leaving behind wounds.

Crimson blood splattered from their bodies, covering the ground.

Although Jiang He did not dodge the fragments, he used his own body to protect Qin Feng's corpse, preventing it from being harmed in any way.

Upon hearing this commotion, the entire number one manor in the world was shaken.

Powerful auras rose from the number one manor in the world, flashing towards this side.

After all, they hadn't heard what Jiang He said; they only knew that a big commotion had occurred here.

Qin Yu, the number one swordsman in the world, walked out of the room and stood in front of Jiang He. He looked at the corpse of Qin Feng in Jiang He's arms and remained silent.

However, an incomparably terrifying pressure seemed to envelop the entire Number One Manor under Heaven, as if it were about to completely destroy the entire Number One Manor under Heaven.

The experts from the number one manor in the world who had originally rushed towards this place, upon learning that Qin Feng was in trouble, all silently retreated and dared not approach this courtyard again.

"How did Feng'er die?"

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Yu spoke with an extremely calm expression.

He asked the same question as Wang Hao.

However, the two are worlds apart.

Wang Hao was furious, extremely furious.

Qin Yu remained calm, showing no sign of anger whatsoever.

This is what Jiang He and the others fear most.

The more Qin Yu acted this way, the more terrifying his anger became.
