As Qin Feiyang erged, all eyes in the room turned toward him, their expressions varied. The rmaid King and his daughter looked grateful, yet the faces of the Black Wing King and White Wing King were filled with resentnt. If not for Qin Feiyang's intervention, the rmaid King would have been killed long ago, and control over the rmaid people would now have been in their hands. It was this human youth who had disrupted their master plan. As for the White Wing Guards and Black Wing Guards, their faces were filled with fear.
Despite being the center of attention, Qin Feiyang remained composed; he had seen far grander scenes. He glanced over the crowd and said lightly, "Don't look at
like that, I'm just passing by."
The White Wing King retorted angrily, "If you're just passing by, then why interfere? Do you have nothing better to do?"
"I just don't approve of your thods. What about it?" Qin Feiyang regarded him coolly.
At these words, the White Wing King's nose practically contorted with rage.
One of the White Wing Guards said anxiously, "My King, stop arguing with him! Quickly let go of the Princess! If this continues, the King will really kill you!"
"HAHA..." Instead of releasing her, the White Wing King burst out laughing.
"You're beyond redemption!" The rmaid King's face turned cold as the Ocean King's Seal materialized, shooting toward the White Wing King like a golden teor.
"rmaid King, do you really think it's just the Black Wing King and I who are rebelling?" The White Wing King laughed maniacally. "Let
tell you now, your abdication is the will of the great Ancestors!"
"Ancestors?" Qin Feiyang's brow furrowed.
"Impossible!" the rmaid King denied resolutely.
WHOOSH!!
At that very mont, two figures, one black and one white, descended silently above the underwater city. They were also rfolk: a Black Wing rmaid and a White Wing rmaid. Both appeared middle-aged, with formidable physiques. But astonishingly, they each had three pairs of wings on their backs!
The White Wing rmaid waved his hand, and a white beam of light swept out. The Ocean King's Seal, which had been hurtling towards the White Wing King, instantly湮灭, vanishing without a trace.
"Who are you?!" the rmaid King cried out in alarm. He looked up, and his expression changed drastically.
"Greetings to the White Wing Ninth Ancestor and the Black Wing Ninth Ancestor!" All the rfolk, including the White Wing King, prostrated themselves at once. The rmaid King did not kneel, but his expression held a hint of reverence.
The White Wing Ninth Ancestor? The Black Wing Ninth Ancestor? Qin Feiyang's heart chilled. Three pairs of wings! He hadn't expected the rfolk to possess such powerful beings!
During his tour of the underwater city with Princess rmaid, she had ntioned that the number of a rmaid's wings increased with their cultivation. A War King had one pair of wings. A War Emperor had two pairs of wings. Three pairs of wings signified a being who had surpassed the War Emperor realm!
The two Ancestors also looked at Qin Feiyang. As their eyes t, Qin Feiyang felt a tremor in his soul, but he did not look away, eting their gaze with neither servility nor arrogance. From their eyes, he read a trace of greed! Yes! They were undoubtedly coveting sothing he possessed! Qin Feiyang's heart sank.
A few monts later, the two Ancestors shifted their gaze, glancing at the rmaid King and the others.
"White Wing King, release the Princess," the White Wing Ninth Ancestor said, his face devoid of expression. "rmaid King, you will also release the Black Wing King."
"Yes," the White Wing King bowed and finally released Princess rmaid.
The rmaid King also released the Black Wing King. He then looked at the two Ancestors and asked, "Earlier, the White Wing King claid this was all your idea. Is that true?"
"Correct. It was our idea," the two nodded.
"Why?" the rmaid King demanded angrily. "Have I done sothing wrong?"
"On the contrary, you have done very well. However, you ultimately failed to receive the inheritance of the first rmaid King," one of the Ancestors said, a hint of disappointnt and regret in his voice. "Now that your ti is nearly up, you should abdicate the throne."
The rmaid King said somberly, "I have taken a Lifespan Extension Pill. I have a full hundred years of life remaining."
Qin Feiyang smiled faintly. "Incorrect. A Top Grade Lifespan Extension Pill can extend life by two hundred years."
"What?!" The White Wing King and the others were astounded.
Princess rmaid was also taken aback. She quickly ca to Qin Feiyang's side and asked, "Is that true?"
Qin Feiyang nodded.
"That's wonderful!" Princess rmaid was overjoyed.
"HAHA..." The rmaid King also laughed heartily. "Did you hear that, Ancestors? I now have two hundred years of life remaining!"
"So what?" the two Ancestors glanced at Qin Feiyang and said indifferently. "For powerhouses like us, two hundred years is but the blink of an eye."
"Two hundred years is indeed short, but I am confident that within these two hundred years, I can break through the War Emperor Cultivation Realm and reach a higher state!" the rmaid King declared, his entire being radiating an unparalleled confidence.
He was not exaggerating. His cultivation was already on the verge of a breakthrough, but his impending demise had been a cruel constraint. He had thought he would die with this regret. But unexpectedly, Qin Feiyang had appeared at this critical juncture, giving him a chance at rebirth.
Hearing his words, the two Ancestors were visibly moved. They had never before seen such confidence in the rmaid King.
The White Wing King suddenly interjected, "Ancestors, don't listen to his nonsense! He's just stalling for ti!"
Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow. He's still thinking of getting rid of the rmaid King even now. This man truly deserves to be punished. The most crucial point is, these two Ancestors are no good either. I initially thought everything was settled, but it seems this is just the beginning.
Princess rmaid also glared angrily at the White Wing King.
But the rmaid King paid them no heed, not even glancing at the White Wing King, his gaze fixed intently on the two Ancestors; perhaps in his eyes at that mont, the White Wing King was nothing more than a jester.
After a mont, the Black Wing Ninth Ancestor shook his head. "Regardless of whether you can break through in two hundred years, you must abdicate today and yield the throne."
The White Wing Ninth Ancestor added, "Indeed. This is the consensus among all of us."
The rmaid King's face fell.
"All of you?" Qin Feiyang was startled and asked in a low voice, "Princess, who in the rmaid clan surpasses the War Emperor realm?"
"They live in a different place and rarely show themselves. So have never appeared at all, so I'm not entirely sure," Princess rmaid whispered back.
It seems the strength of the rmaid clan should not be underestimated, Qin Feiyang muttered to himself.
"We don't have ti to dally. Announce to the world that you are abdicating the throne to the Black Wing King and the White Wing King," the two Ancestors urged, their patience wearing thin as the rmaid King remained silent.
The rmaid King clenched his fists. Done with superfluous words, he stated clearly, "If you can guarantee that the Black Wing King and White Wing King will never betray the Great Qin Empire, then I can relinquish this throne."
"That is not your concern," the two Ancestors replied. "You should just go and live out your remaining years in peace."
The rmaid King did not show anger; instead, he laughed. But his weathered face carried a desolate sorrow of old age, and a hint of self-mockery.
Qin Feiyang, too, felt an inexplicable wave of sadness. It was clear that the rmaid King was truly a Holy Emperor who loved his people as his own children, fighting desperately to preserve the rmaid clan's heritage. Unfortunately, the rmaid clan had too many ambitious individuals.
Princess rmaid whispered, "Qin Feiyang, you are the son of an emperor. Please, can you help my father?"
Qin Feiyang forced a smile. How can I help? My title as the Emperor's son is rely nominal. Let alone helping the rmaid King, if my identity were revealed and reached the ears of those in the Imperial Capital, there would probably be no place for
in the entire Great Qin Empire.
The White Wing Ninth Ancestor raised an eyebrow. "rmaid King, do I need to repeat myself?"
"SIGH!" Gazing out over the vast underwater city, the rmaid King let out a long sigh and nodded. "Very well, I, this King, shall abdicate..."
A gamble! Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed. He took a step forward and shouted, "Wait!"
"Hmm?" All eyes instantly focused on him.
The White Wing Ninth Ancestor said, "Human youth, this is an internal affair of the rmaid clan. I advise you not to interfere."
"I can't help it." Qin Feiyang shrugged. "I may not have many virtues, but I do enjoy ddling in other people's business."
"ddling counts as a virtue?" The crowd was utterly speechless.
"I'm afraid you lack the capability to ddle in these affairs," the two Ancestors said, a startlingly cold gleam in their eyes.
Seeing this, the rmaid King hurriedly said, "Young brother, I am very grateful that you would step forward to speak for
at this ti, but the situation is already decided..."
"Who said the situation is decided?" Qin Feiyang's lips curved into a slight smile. Looking at the two so-called Ancestors, he said nonchalantly, "To be honest, I do possess that capability."
"Not only that, I also have the capability to bring about the downfall of your entire rmaid clan!"
As he uttered the last few words, his entire deanor instantly transford. He resembled a cold-blooded god of slaughter, making even Princess rmaid, who stood beside him, tremble involuntarily.
"Hmm?" Murderous intent surged from the two Ancestors.
"Don't think I'm rely posturing," Qin Feiyang said. "Take a look at this." With a wave of his hand, an Image Crystal Stone appeared out of thin air.
"A re War King actually possesses an Image Crystal Stone?" The two Ancestors were greatly alard.
"My journey across the Desert of Death to the Sea of Despair this ti was precisely to reach the state office," Qin Feiyang continued. "But I never expected that the trial set for
by the state office would lead
to discover your rmaid clan."
"Tell , if I were to report your existence to the state office, how do you think they would react?" he sneered. "And what if I were to report your intention to rebel? What actions do you think they would take then?"
These words caused an imdiate uproar among the surrounding rfolk. The rmaid clan had survived to this day precisely because they had remained undiscovered by humans. If word truly got out, it wouldn't be long before hordes of powerful human cultivators descended upon this place.
The White Wing Ninth Ancestor said gravely, "What do you want?"
"The King of the rmaid clan shall continue to be the rmaid King," Qin Feiyang stated. "As for you Old Bastards, go back to whatever it is you do and stop ddling here."
"Impossible!" the two Ancestors declared resolutely.
"In that case, I will notify the state office right now!" A sharp glint flashed in Qin Feiyang's eyes.
"BOOM!" The oppressive auras of the two Ancestors roared forth simultaneously, instantly enveloping Qin Feiyang.
Imdiately after, the White-Winged Ancestor flickered, appearing before Qin Feiyang and thrusting a finger toward his brow.
