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

"Reporting to the Master, the young master said he wants to have a fair fight with Chu Xiu, and will seal his own cultivation level to the same level as Chu Xiu's, and then fight Chu Xiu."

"To test the skill of swordsmanship."

"When we arrived, the young master was already dead..."

Jiang He's expression changed slightly, and his voice grew softer and softer.

"So you mean you have no idea how Feng'er died?"

Qin Yu glanced at Jiang He indifferently and said coldly.

Jiang He lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Qin Yu bent down and picked up Qin Feng's body from Jiang He's arms, silently watching Jiang He and the others.

"Brother-in-law, I know about this. Let me tell you."

Wang Hao appeared out of thin air in the courtyard, sighed, and said with a sorrowful expression.

"Stand back."

Qin Yu said calmly.

"Thank you, Master."

Jiang He and the others breathed a sigh of relief, thanked Qin Yu, and then quickly left.

After watching Jiang He and the others leave, Wang Hao told them the whole story.

"Qi Tianchen?"

"What a Qi Tianchen!"

"A mere commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard has actually made you, the number one expert of the Great Zhou Dynasty, personally take action!"

"If he doesn't make a move, Chu Xiu is doomed!"

But he still made his move!

A murderous glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes as he said with chilling intent, "Perfect timing. For so many years, I've always wanted to see your strength and just how powerful you really are, the legendary number one expert in the world!"

In his view, Chu Xiu was definitely going to die.

There's also Dugu Yanyu.

However, these two are not in a hurry to kill.

Moreover, both of them were in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Since Qi Tianchen has taken action for Chu Xiu, if he wants to kill Chu Xiu in the capital, he will inevitably have to confront Qi Tianchen.

In that case, he might as well go directly to the Imperial Observatory and fight Qi Tianchen.

Firstly, it was to fulfill his long-cherished wish to fight Qi Tianchen.

Secondly, it was to let Qi Tianchen know his strength, so that Qi Tianchen would not dare to stop him from killing Chu Xiu.

"Brother-in-law, you mustn't..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hao's expression changed drastically, his eyes narrowed, and he advised Qin Yu, "The Imperial Preceptor's strength is truly the number one in the world, a fact recognized by everyone."

The major families and even the holy land-level sects have always been walking on thin ice because of Qi Tianchen.

Even if my brother-in-law wanted to kill Chu Xiu, he absolutely couldn't afford to offend the Imperial Advisor, otherwise…

"Alright, Lord Wang, there's no need to persuade me any further."

"I've made up my mind!"

Qin Yu interrupted Wang Hao, left a sentence, and turned to leave, carrying Qin Feng's body.

Watching Qin Yu's retreating figure, Wang Hao opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't utter a single word.

He knew very well that the deaths of both Qin Yan and Qin Feng were closely related to him.

Both of them died in the capital.

However, in the capital, the Wang family of Taiyuan still possessed extremely strong power.

But he didn't manage to save any of them.

Qin Yu already harbored some resentment towards him.

If they continue to persuade him, Qin Yu may very well have to sever all ties with the Taiyuan Wang family on behalf of the number one manor in the world and the Qin family of Huaiyin.

If that happens, even if he is a direct descendant of the Taiyuan Wang clan, he will inevitably be greatly affected.

Wang Hao gave a wry smile, and with a swift movement, disappeared from the Number One Manor in the World.

Half an hour later.

"Feng'er, Yan'er, wait!"

"I will avenge you now!"

"Father will make the entire capital city flow with blood!"

"Whoever dares to kill my son shall die!"

With a long sword at his waist, Qin Yu looked at the two new graves before him, a wine flask in his left hand, and said with unwavering determination, "Even Qi Tianchen can't stop me, that's what I, Qin Yu, say!"

After saying that, Qin Yu uncorked the wine flask and poured the wine inside onto the ground in front of the two new graves.

He took a step and vanished as if into thin air.

In a short period of time, Qin Yu lost two sons!

Even as the head of the Qin family of Huaiyin and the lord of the number one manor in the world, he had more than just two sons.

However, the other sons were no longer legitimate sons, but rather illegitimate sons.

Qin Tianjian.

Chu Xiu carried a small package in his left hand and arrived outside the Imperial Observatory.

"Greetings to the Marquis."

Upon seeing Chu Xiu appear, the Imperial Guard captains guarding outside the Imperial Observatory quickly saluted.

"No gift."

Chu Xiu waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis."

The Imperial Guard captain spoke with a look of awe.

"Please inform him that Chu Xiu has come to visit the Grand Preceptor."

Chu Xiu smiled slightly and looked at the Imperial Guard Captain.

"This……"

The Imperial Guard captain hesitated for a moment, then tentatively said, "My lord, the Imperial Preceptor has been in seclusion for many years and has not received any guests for a long time. Are you sure you want to visit the Imperial Preceptor?"

"All you need to do is inform them for me."

Chu Xiu smiled calmly and said.

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys."

The Imperial Guard captain responded and walked into the Imperial Observatory.

After a while.

Swish!

A figure appeared out of thin air outside the Imperial Observatory.

This figure was none other than Yan Qingfeng, the Junior Supervisor of the Imperial Observatory.

Yan Qingfeng smiled and extended his hand to Chu Xiu, inviting him in: "My lord, please come in. My master has been waiting for you for a long time on the ninth floor of the main building of the Imperial Observatory."

"Thank you for your trouble, Lord Yan."

Chu Xiu nodded to Yan Qingfeng and followed him into the Imperial Observatory.

After Chu Xiu and Yan Qingfeng entered the Imperial Observatory, the Imperial Guard Captain emerged, looking somewhat dazed.

Whether it was the Imperial Guard captain or the other Imperial Guard soldiers, they were all in a daze.

The main reason was that none of them expected that the Imperial Preceptor, who had been in seclusion for many years, would personally meet with Chu Xiu because of his arrival.

Could it be that the Imperial Advisor has already emerged from seclusion?

They just don't know?

Not long after.

Led by Yan Qingfeng, Chu Xiu arrived at the ninth floor of the main building of the Imperial Observatory. He immediately saw Qi Tianchen, the Imperial Observatory Director of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who looked like a white-haired youth.

The entire ninth floor of the main building of the Imperial Observatory was extremely spacious, with only a stone table and a few stone benches.

And several prayer cushions on the ground.

Nothing else.

Chu Xiu cupped his hands in greeting to Qi Tianchen and said, "Chu Xiu pays his respects to the Imperial Preceptor."

"My lord, there's no need for such formalities. Please have a seat."

Qi Tianchen extended his hand to Chu Xiu in invitation.

"Thank you, Imperial Advisor."

Chu Xiu said something to Qi Tianchen and then sat down on the stone bench opposite him.

Yan Qingfeng walked to the seat behind Qi Tianchen and stood there instead of sitting down.

"Is Your Excellency offering me a gift, my lord?"

Qi Tianchen glanced at the small package Chu Xiu had placed on the stone table and said with a smile.

"Exactly!"

"Your Excellency, please take a look. This is a small token of my appreciation."

"This is not gold or silver, nor is it gold or silver notes."

Chu Xiu nodded slightly, pushed the small package in front of him towards Qi Tianchen, and explained to him.

"Oh?"

"Then I'd like to see what's inside."

Qi Tianchen's face showed interest as he slowly opened the small package with both hands.
