Looking at Qin Wutian's wretched appearance, Jianchen's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He said solemnly: "What exactly happened? What happened?"
"Imperial Protector, we were ordered to go to the Sunset Kingdom to chase after the second prince. In the end, we found the second prince in one of the Sunset Kingdom's cities. Just as we were bringing him back, we were stopped by four powerhouses from the Dragon Tiger Sect. They injured me and saved the second prince. Although the hundred elite soldiers I brought with me did not die, almost all of them were heavily injured." Qin Wutian said weakly.
"Preposterous, this Dragon Tiger Sect must have eaten the guts of a leopard. It looks like they want to make an enemy out of our Qin Empire."
"We can't just let this matter go. We must make the Dragon Tiger Sect pay the price."
"We can't forgive the Dragon Tiger Sect."
"The Dragon Tiger Sect's actions are clearly not putting our Qin Empire in their eyes. They are provoking our Qin Empire."
Hearing those words, the few Imperial Advisors were all infuriated, as if they were angry lions. The Dragon Tiger Sect's actions had completely enraged them.
"We must get justice for this matter. Whoever left that palm print on Tian 'er's body will have an arm." Qin Wuming was also incomparably enraged as he said solemnly.
"Father is right. Whoever injured big brother will have an arm." Qin Wujian said sternly, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
Qin Wuming looked at Jianchen and said: "Imperial Protector, let us go to the Dragon Tiger Sect. This matter concerns the dignity of our Qin Empire. We can't just let it go like this."
"That's right, Imperial Protector. This matter concerns the dignity of our Qin Empire. Not to mention a mere Dragon Tiger Sect, even if they are one of the Eight Great Nations, we must get justice. Our Qin Empire is not a place that just anyone can bully." One of the Imperial Advisors said righteously.
Jianchen said, "Everyone is right. We must seek justice for this matter. We cannot easily forgive the Dragon and Tiger Sect." Jianchen paused slightly. He looked at Qin Wutian and said, "Qin Wutian, go heal first. I'll get people to gather all the Radiant Saint Masters in the royal capital."
Qin Wutian nodded and didn't say anything. Then, he left with the help of the two soldiers.
After Qin Wutian left, Jianchen looked around and said, "Now, let's discuss how to deal with the Dragon Tiger Sect. I wonder if anyone has any good plans?"
"For the sake of a mere second prince, the Dragon Tiger Sect actually dares to oppose our Qin Empire. It looks like they must have something to rely on. They don't fear our Qin Empire at all. Otherwise, the second prince's identity must be special. He's not as simple as we imagine him to be." Cao Keqin analyzed.
"That's right. This idea is the same as Old Man's. However, I don't think the Dragon Tiger Sect wants to become enemies with our Qin Empire. They should be targeting the second prince. Otherwise, those hundred elite soldiers wouldn't have ended up with only heavy injuries. With the strength of their four Heaven Saint Masters, killing a hundred Earth Saint Masters shouldn't be a difficult matter." An Imperial Advisor said.
"No matter what their goal is, we should pay them a visit. In short, we must get back our dignity. We don't want others to look down on our Qin Empire."
Jianchen pondered for a moment and said, "How about this. Once Qin Wutian's injuries are healed, we'll immediately pay a visit to the Dragon Tiger Sect and see what their stance is."
"Alright, let's do that. If there's a need, we can even ask the esteemed Imperial Protector to uphold justice." Qin Wutian said in a heavy voice.
Afterwards, everyone dispersed. At the same time, all the Radiant Saint Masters in the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom were invited into the imperial palace to treat Qin Wutian's injuries. However, Radiant Saint Masters were extremely precious on the Tian Yuan Continent. They were also extremely few in number. In such a large imperial city, there were only a dozen or so Radiant Saint Masters. Moreover, they weren't very powerful. The strongest one was only at the fourth step. With Qin Wutian's injuries, it would be very difficult for him to recover in less than two days.
After leaving the discussion hall, Jianchen directly went to the room where the king of the Kingdom of Gesun rested. At the same time, he called the two Heaven Saint Masters, Kaffir and Ye Ming, over.
The four of them sat down at a table. Jianchen said, "We've had a conflict with the Dragon Tiger Sect. We'll be heading to the Dragon Tiger Sect soon. Your majesty, you should return to the Kingdom of Gesun with the army tomorrow morning."
"Changyang Shōten, let me and Ye Ming go with you to the Dragon Tiger Sect. Although our strength can't compare to the Imperial Protectors of the Qin Empire, we can still help out a little." Kaffir said.
"That won't do. Principal, you and senior Ye Ming should return with his majesty. This time, the ten Imperial Protectors of the Qin Empire, as well as the three Qin Wuming and his sons, will all go to the Dragon Tiger Sect to seek justice. The army cannot be without a Heaven Saint Master." Jianchen rejected Kaffir's suggestion without hesitation. Although the army of the Qin Empire couldn't possibly encounter any danger, it was still necessary to take precautions. Moreover, Jianchen planned to call Ming Dong and the rest back, so safety had to be guaranteed.
"Alright, then we'll be responsible for protecting the army as they return." Kaffir understood Jianchen's worries and didn't say anything else.
Seeing Jianchen's solemn expression, the king had already guessed that the matter of the Dragon Tiger Sect would be a little troublesome. He worriedly asked, "Nephew, is the matter of the Dragon Tiger Sect serious?"
"Your majesty, don't worry. The Dragon Tiger Sect is very strong, but they can't be compared to the Qin Empire. This time, they have offended the dignity of the Qin Empire. The Qin Empire won't just sit by and watch. If there's a need, the Saint Ruler of the Qin Empire will probably interfere as well." Jianchen said without a care. After grasping the origin energy of the sword spirits, Jianchen no longer feared any Heaven Saint Master. The only one he truly feared was the Saint Ruler of the Dragon Tiger Sect.
Hearing the words' Saint Ruler ', Kaffir and Ye Ming both sucked in a cold breath. This level of strength was already far beyond their comprehension. Although they were only a single realm away from a Saint Ruler, the gap between them could never be bridged. It was like comparing an ant to an elephant.
There was even an old saying in the Tian Yuan Continent: Below the Saint Ruler level, all are ants.
"This is no longer something we can interfere with." Ye Ming sighed.
"Sigh!" Kaffir sighed and muttered, "Back in the day, the first principal of the Kargath Academy was a Saint Ruler. It's a pity that the old principal was a wanderer who loved to wander the world. I don't know where he went these past few years and there hasn't been any news of him for several hundred years. If the old principal was willing to take charge of the Kingdom of Gesun, then the Kingdom of Gesun would have soared a long time ago."
… …
The next morning, the army stationed in the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom was ready to leave. The million strong army had already gathered in an empty area outside the Imperial City. They were only waiting for the order to set off.
"Jianchen, you must be careful." Ming Dong said to Jianchen with a serious expression. They all knew that Jianchen's group was going to deal with the Dragon Tiger Sect, so they were all worried about Jianchen.
Jianchen chuckled, "Why are you so serious? It's not like we're never coming back. Don't forget that I'm representing the Qin Empire. The Dragon Tiger Sect won't dare to do anything to us."
At this moment, You Yue removed an accessory from her body. After a moment of hesitation, she personally put it on Jianchen. She said softly, "Changyang Shōten, this is a longevity lock that my mother left me. It can keep me safe. I'm giving it to you now. I hope you can take good care of it." You Yue's face was a little red, but she still personally put the longevity lock on Jianchen's neck.
Jianchen smiled awkwardly. He placed the longevity lock on his neck under his clothes and felt the residual warmth from the longevity lock. It made Jianchen's heart sway.
"I'll definitely take good care of this longevity lock." Jianchen looked at Princess You Yue with a smile and said solemnly. This was the first time a girl had given him something, and it was even a personal item.
"Xiang'er, once you're done with the Dragon Tiger Sect, come back as soon as possible. The reconstruction of Changyang Prefecture should be completed soon. You're an important person. Without you, the opening ceremony of Changyang Prefecture won't be able to continue," Changyang Ba said.
"I know, father. Once I'm done with the Dragon Tiger Sect, I'll return," Jianchen replied.
After bidding farewell to everyone, the million strong army of the Kingdom of Gesun and the Qin Empire began to depart. Apart from Jianchen, Qin Wuming, Qin Wuming, and the ten Imperial Advisors of the Qin Empire, everyone else returned to the Kingdom of Gesun with the army of the Qin Empire. Only a small group of around a hundred elites were left behind to guard the national treasury. They were responsible for supervising the craftsmen who were cutting up the treasury.
Jianchen watched the army leave before returning to the imperial palace. However, the huge imperial palace was now empty. There was not even a shadow to be seen. It gave off a lonely feeling. Only the sound of craftsmen cutting through steel could be heard from the direction of the national treasury. It added a sense of liveliness to the empty imperial palace.
The next day, Qin Wutian's injuries were healed by a Radiant Saint Master. The group did not stay for even a moment and immediately set off for the Dragon Tiger Sect.
The Dragon Tiger Sect was located in a large mountain, and it was very close to the Sunset Kingdom. It was an area without borders, and the area within a radius of a hundred miles was not under the jurisdiction of any kingdom. It was completely the territory of the Dragon Tiger Sect.
The Sect of Dragon and Tiger had already existed for several thousand years. The name of the sect was no secret in the region. Many people knew of its existence, but only a very small number of experts knew that it was a peak organization with Saint Rulers.
