Qin, Qi, and Yan, bordering the southern frontier, although the mountains are high and the forests dense, the terrain is complex.
However, at the border, there is a flat area, and even if there were once mountains and forests, they have long been flattened.
A single step forward, and you are in enemy territory.
On both sides of the border, there are buffer zones. If I leave out five hundred feet of space, then you must also leave out five hundred feet. If you only leave out four hundred and ninety-five feet, then I will advance five feet.
This is what is meant by every inch of land must be contested.
The border is merely a line of an inch.
Advance an inch into my territory, and it will be a matter of life and death.
(Seeing many people say that enemy spies can enter the territory of the State of Qin as if it were a no-man's land, I will not make any explanation, but will only say one thing: Guys, when you have time, go and see the border of our country. The border is not what you imagine when you sit in front of your computer. Even in today's peaceful era of network information, the blood shed at the border every year is still shocking. Every second, border guards bear the pressure of life and death.)
Miaosensen and others were returning in a somber mood, having already returned to the territory of the Great Yan.
Suddenly, a purple figure flashed, and a person appeared before them.
Dressed in purple, with a gaunt face, a tall and slender figure, and an ancient appearance; his eyes seemed to have the vastness of the stars swirling within.
When he looked at each person, they felt as if they had been completely seen through.
"It's His Majesty the Purple Emperor! We pay our respects to His Majesty the Purple Emperor!"
Miaosensen was truly shocked beyond measure.
This was a legendary figure in the Great Yan.
Just his demeanor and grace were not something ordinary people could possess.
Everyone simultaneously bowed to the ground, as if they had seen a deity.
The status of the Purple Emperor in the Great Yan completely surpasses that of the emperor; he is the true soul of the Great Yan!
One of the few people standing at the pinnacle of the entire world!
The State of Qin also has such a figure, the Great Venerable Qingming!
The founder of the Flying Eagle Hall in the Great Yan, who commands the seas and holds great power, is a disciple of the Purple Emperor!
And the Purple Emperor has a total of seven disciples!
This shows how high the status of the Purple Emperor is.
"Rise."
The Purple Emperor was very kind, saying, "I have come here because there is a matter that requires your attention and effort."
"Please, His Majesty the Purple Emperor, give us any command. We will brave boiling water and blazing fire, even if we are shattered to pieces, we will do our best to accomplish this task."
Miaosensen's face was flushed with excitement.
His spirit was invigorated to the extreme; he never dreamed that he would receive a mission from the Purple Emperor.
At this moment, he truly felt that even if he died for this, he would die ten thousand times and it would be worth it.
He even felt a sense of honor and pride!
This feeling, how to describe it, was like a small leader of a county-level city suddenly being received by the supreme leader and personally given a task.
The feeling of blood boiling to the extreme, completely uncontrollable.
The Purple Emperor laughed heartily, his gaze warm, and with his right hand, he extended his fingers, and beams of light seeped into the bodies of the thirty-six people; Miaosensen and Baiyixiu each received two purple beams.
Clearly, the Purple Emperor had seen that they were the leaders.
"I won't let you work in vain. I will give each of you a life-saving spirit aura. In a life-or-death situation, it can prevent death and fully restore your strength once."
He looked at Miaosensen and Baiyixiu with a gentle gaze: "Each of you will have two."
"Thank you, His Majesty the Purple Emperor!"
Everyone bowed simultaneously, their hearts filled with excitement and gratitude, never expecting the Purple Emperor to be so kind and approachable.
"If you don't use it, it can be transformed into a martial seed." The Purple Emperor smiled.
For him, this was a trivial matter, easily done.
When you ask someone to do something, you should give them a reward.
Even the Purple Emperor understands this clearly and will not let people work for free.
Then, he gave detailed instructions.
Even after the Purple Emperor had left for a long time, Miaosensen still felt something was off.
It was like a dream.
"Am I dreaming? Did I hear wrong?" he asked Baiyixiu.
"I am too..." Baiyixiu was also a bit dazed.
"The meaning of His Majesty is that after so much effort, he wants to find a little kitten?" Miaosensen felt he couldn't keep up.
"…It seems that's what he said just now." Baiyixiu scratched his head.
"Find a kitten…"
Miaosensen sighed: "And it's best if it's from a small town in the martial world? This…"
Baiyixiu's eyes narrowed, saying, "Could it be the offspring of a demon beast?"
"His Majesty didn't say. But in any case, this matter must be the top priority."
Miaosensen still felt his mind was a bit muddled.
When he walked, he felt his steps were uneven.
"The Flying Eagle Hall of the Great Yan will now search for cats."
"Is this… playing with cats?"
...
The Purple Emperor did not clarify that it was the offspring of the Demon Emperor. These things must not be leaked. The rest depends on the abilities of Miaosensen and others.
After the Purple Emperor left, he directly transformed into a clear wind and arrived above Yuezhou City, his divine consciousness silently spreading, covering the entire city.
Instantly, he captured countless auras of demon beasts.
He quickly searched, back and forth three times, and finally gave up.
"As I expected, the Demon Emperor must have disguised her child as an ordinary kitten… This really broadens the scope."
The Purple Emperor thought for a long time, considering whether to kill all the young animals in Yuezhou, including human infants.
But after much thought, he gave up.
"If I do that, I will surely be placed on the highest list of the Heavenly Ruler. At that time, even if they cannot kill me, the Great Yan will be finished."
He thought this through clearly.
Such an act would be inhumane and cruel.
If I, the spiritual totem of the Great Yan, really did that, the reputation of the Great Yan would stink across the continent in a single day.
Even the people of the Great Yan would feel ashamed.
Other countries might even launch a war to divide the Great Yan.
And I, as the leader who slaughtered all the young, would be disgraced for eternity, my name written in history, never to be redeemed.
Besides, my goal is not to destroy the offspring of the Demon Empress; what's the point of killing? I need control! I need to make them think twice, to ensure a long-term future!
"Enough."
The Purple Emperor transformed into a purple light, rising into the sky and disappearing at the horizon.
"Let's see if the Flying Eagle Hall can accomplish this."
"Some things, no matter how high one's cultivation, are simply impossible."
"Moreover, Qingming has shown no reaction to my activities here. He hasn't appeared for decades… Could it be, as the rumors say, that something really happened?"
...
Wutiejun rushed back, carrying the remains of his brother, running all the way.
This time, he was truly disheveled, not even bothering to tidy up.
His colleagues who saw him along the way were all shocked.
"Sir! Boss!"
Wutiejun directly rushed to He Biqu's presence.
He Biqu's brows furrowed, his gaze sharp, and suddenly a killing aura filled the air as he said, word by word, "Did we arrive too late?!"
"It's Miaosensen!"
Wutiejun's eyes were bloodshot: "He brutally killed Doctor Feng! To get information from Doctor Feng, he also brutally killed one of our brothers!"
Bang!
A table was shattered by He Biqu's palm!
Wood splinters flew, and He Biqu let out a long, mournful cry, overwhelmed with grief.
Wutiejun was stern and meticulous, extremely serious and meticulous in his work. If he said this, it must be true.
"It's our Rainbow Sky Cloak that has wronged our benefactor!"
"Spread my order, search the entire Yuezhou! No one from the Great Yan's Flying Eagle Hall will be spared, and they will be hunted down with all our might!"
"Eliminate all spies of the Great Yan!"
"Revenge for Mr. Feng! Revenge for our brother!"
A short while later.
All the Rainbow Sky Cloak personnel who had been on the mission learned that the doctor who had saved their lives had been killed by Miaosensen of the Great Yan's Flying Eagle Hall!
Moreover, this incident also led to the death of a Sky Cloak member, whose body, wrapped in white cloth, clearly showed signs of cruel torture before death.
Their eyes all turned red!
"Sir, we must avenge this!"
"Revenge for Doctor Feng! Revenge for our brother!"
"Miaosensen is not human!"
The crowd was enraged.
"The Great Yan's Flying Eagle Hall is despicable, even killing a healer. They have no martial virtue."
In the hall.
Wutiejun, with a bruised face, endured a series of thunderous blows from He Biqu in just a few seconds.
He Biqu lowered his voice and roared, "Useless! What can you do? You couldn't even escort someone in time! Tell me, Wutiejun, can you even catch up to hot shit when you need to eat it?!"
"Someone like you, being demoted from the capital to here, what's so surprising? Dying early is better, so you don't drag others down! You, besides being incompetent, besides contradicting your superiors, besides being brain-dead, what good qualities do you have? Tell me, what do you have?"
"I told you to take him away early, but you didn't listen! You insisted on coming back to pick him up, saying you were being thorough. If you hadn't delayed for a few days, would Mr. Feng have met his fate?"
"You saw with your own eyes how I was cured of my chronic illness, and how all my comrades were severely injured but none died or had their martial futures cut short. You dare say you didn't know the importance of that medicine to the empire? You dare say you didn't know?"
"Having a subordinate like you is the worst curse I've ever had!"
"If it weren't for your grandfather, I would have cut you into pieces and fed you to the dogs long ago!"
"Are you so arrogant, nitpicking others' mistakes while your own ass is dirty? A pile of shit, what right do you have to say others stink?"
"I must have been blind and heartless to entrust this mission to you. I should have done it myself!"
"What face do you have to live in this world? If I were you, I would have hanged myself from a crooked tree long ago, ending it all and leaving a clean slate!"
Wutiejun endured the beating without a word, not daring to argue.
Although he knew it was He Biqu's decision, even if he was as straightforward as he was, he didn't dare say it now.
He knew the line between life and death.
This time, He Biqu was truly angry, and if he dared to say a word, he wouldn't need to find a crooked tree; He Biqu would slap him to death!
"What are you waiting for? Get out and take care of your brother's funeral arrangements. What are you waiting for?"
He Biqu pointed outward, thundering, "Get out!"
Wutiejun got up and ran.
As he ran, he was kicked in the buttocks by He Biqu's furious foot, and he flew out like a bird.
Puff!
In the hall.
He Biqu covered his forehead, sighing deeply after a long time, "Ah!"
Regret instantly flooded his heart, lingering for a long time.
Miaosensen actually put aside the funeral arrangements for his comrades to handle this matter first, which He Biqu truly did not expect.
If he were in Miaosensen's shoes, he would have taken care of his comrades' funeral arrangements first, no matter what.
"Miaosensen is indeed ruthless."
"Was it my mistake to overestimate Miaosensen's character?"
"Character? Character? No, no!"
He Biqu suddenly paused, then raised his head and ordered, "Wutiejun, come back!"
