The guards at the gate were shocked. They immediately grabbed their spears and got into an attacking stance. But they quickly put down their spears. Seeing that there were only three people, they obviously didn't care.
"Haha! The people of Immortal Spirit City are here to surrender! "A soldier shouted.
"I knew they would surrender. How dare they go against our Zhanma Country. They are overestimating themselves!"
"I heard that Lord Sky Sovereign sent disciples to subdue Immortal Spirit Mountain today. It looks like they have already taken it."
The soldiers were all talking. Wen Yiming was so angry that he was about to draw his sword. Qin Fen secretly stopped him and shook his head.
"Follow me in. Don't walk around or look around. Otherwise, don't blame me for killing you on the spot." A tall soldier glanced at the three of them and led the way.
Wen Yiming and Qiao Zheng were angry, but Qin Fen didn't care. He was too lazy to explain. As long as he could see the king and Sky Sovereign Feng, everything else wasn't important.
Zhanma Country was just a small country. Its land area wasn't even as big as Immortal Spirit City. No wonder this country would attack Immortal Spirit City. They wanted to expand their territory and power.
The city was heavily guarded. The streets were filled with patrolling soldiers. But they were all ordinary people. Qin Fen and the others hadn't found a single cultivator yet.
"Where are the cultivators of Zhanma Country?" Qin Fen asked.
The soldier leading the way was extremely proud. He pointed into the distance and said, "Do you see that mountain? The immortals of Sky Sovereign Sect live there. Usually, they don't come out. They only fight when Zhanma Country is in trouble …"
"It's your bad luck. Our king wants your place of residence. Surrendering is a wise move. It's the same if you join Zhanma Country. Otherwise, only death awaits you."
Wen Yiming snorted but didn't say anything.
Qin Fen continued to ask, "Cultivation sects usually choose to be built in places with abundant spiritual Qi. They also focus on meditation. Why would that Sky Sovereign Sect get involved in worldly battles?"
"You don't understand. In fact, there are many sects in the Divine Supreme Continent that have formed an alliance with a country. The country will provide the sects with cultivation resources, food, and necessities. When the country is in trouble, the sects will help. This is a complementary relationship. How would you ants understand … "
Qin Feng understood. To put it bluntly, the country worshipped the sect as a backer.
However, the real big sects and clans on the Divine Continent would never cooperate with a country because the people in the country were all ordinary people. The cultivation resources they provided were very limited, and only some sects and clans below the level of three stars would do so temporarily.
Immediately, Qin Fen lost interest in the Celestial Worthy Sect. A small sect like this wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.
As they conversed, they arrived at the foot of a majestic palace. It was the main palace where the king resided.
"Who are these three people?" Two rows of tall and sturdy men stood at the side of the palace, blocking Qin Feng and the others.
The soldier leading the way said, "General Seven, these three are envoys from Spirit Immortal City to surrender."
The Seventh General sneered. "Hmph! I knew that these ants would eventually surrender. If I had been enlightened earlier, things wouldn't have turned out this way. "
Wen Yiming and Qiao Zheng's temper flared up again, and they almost killed the Seven Generals with one slash. Qin Feng was the first to speak: "Bring us in."
The Seventh General made a few more sarcastic remarks before leading the three into the main hall.
The interior of the hall was decorated with gold and jade, similar to ancient Huaxia palaces. Two rows of armored guards stood in the hall, and a few graceful maids were dancing in the center of the hall. The king leaned back on the jade chair in the main hall with a beauty in his arms, drinking wine and enjoying the dance. He was living a very comfortable life.
"This bastard! Now that war is chaotic and there are countless deaths and injuries, he's free and unfettered here. See if I don't kill him with my sword … "
Wen Yiming was furious and was about to draw his sword. Qin Feng stopped him and said to the man in the main hall, "You're the king of Zhan Ma Nation?"
Zhu Changqing was just an ordinary person, so he couldn't see through Qin Feng and the others' cultivation. He acted like a high and mighty king and didn't answer Qin Feng's question at all. He glanced at the Seventh General.
"King, these three are envoys from Spirit Immortal City seeking peace." The Seventh General clearly didn't understand the situation.
After knowing who Qin Feng and the others were, Zhu Changqing's face became even more arrogant. He said with drooping eyelids, "I've already sent people to persuade you to surrender, but you're all lowly wretches who insisted on going against my Zhan Ma Nation. Now look, the war has lasted for a long time, and there are many deaths and injuries. This is all the result of you not understanding the times … "
Zhu Changqing had been on the throne for a long time, so he carried an air of arrogance. These words were even more arrogant, making Wen Yiming and Qiao Zheng clench their fists in secret.
"You still have the nerve to say that? That Spirit Immortal City isn't your Zhan Ma Nation's territory, so what right do you have to occupy it? Also, we've already given up Spirit Immortal City and only want to protect Spirit Immortal Mountain. You won't even agree to such a small request. You're the ones who forced everyone into a dead end … "
Qiao Zheng vented all the anger he'd been suppressing these days. Zhu Changqing's expression turned cold and he kicked the beauty in his arms away.
"Bastard! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that? You're here to seek peace. If you're unhappy, you can go back and fight again. Our Zhan Ma Nation has a strong army, and we even have a Sky Lord. Do you think we're afraid of the Spirit Immortal House … "Zhu Changqing was furious.
Instantly, there was a commotion in the main hall. Dozens of guards surrounded the three of them, pointing their spears at them. They were ready to attack at any moment.
"How dare you talk back to the King. Do you believe that I won't execute the three of you on the spot?" The seventh general's expression was ferocious.
Wen Yiming's lips curled into a cold smile. If Qin Fen hadn't stopped him, he would've killed these soldiers a long time ago. Then, he would've captured that stupid King and beaten him up. Let's see if he still behaved then.
"I think you're mistaken. We're not here to surrender. We're here to negotiate!" Qin Fen's emotionless voice rose. Everyone's expression changed.
"What? You're not here to surrender? What right do you have to negotiate with the King? "The seventh general roared. He unsheathed the golden knife at his waist and slashed at Qin Fen.
The soldiers' eyes flashed with playfulness. They knew how powerful the seventh general was. He had a golden knife and was undefeatable. Qin Fen was young and skinny. He wasn't even a match for the seventh general.
Pfft!
There was the sound of skin breaking. The seventh general's body froze. His upper body leaned forward with one leg dangling behind him. He raised his golden knife high above his head, maintaining the posture of slashing at someone. However, he didn't move anymore. His eyes were filled with fear. The armor on his body suddenly cracked. Even the skin underneath had deep cracks.
Crack crack crack!
