"Then how long will it take for you to break through to the Ninth Heaven Realm?"
Qin Feiyang asked.
"Although you have given me enough soul stones, it will probably take me more than ten thousand years to break through to the Ninth Heaven Realm."
Jiang Dafei said.
"Do you have a specific number?"
Qin Feiyang frowned.
Jiang Dafei thought for a while, and said: "According to my current speed of refining soul stones, it should take me about twelve thousand years."
"Twelve thousand years …"
Qin Feiyang pondered in silence.
According to the castle's time rules, one day was a hundred years, ten days was a thousand years, and ten days was ten thousand years.
In other words …
Twelve thousand years was more than a hundred and twenty days.
Thinking of this …
Qin Feiyang looked up at Jiang Dafei and said: "How about this, you find a chance to leave the City Lord's Mansion first."
"Why?"
Jiang Dafei was suspicious.
"Go to my castle and cultivate in seclusion."
"The castle's time rules are a hundred years a day. In only four months, you will be able to break through to the Ninth Heaven Realm."
Qin Feiyang said.
"A hundred years a day?"
Jiang Dafei was stunned, and hurriedly said: "I seem to remember Fan Yunzhang saying that the castle's time rules are ten years a day?"
"That was before."
"After I broke through to the half-step God Realm, the castle changed again."
"Now it's a hundred years a day."
Qin Feiyang laughed.
"Half-step God Realm?"
Jiang Dafei was stunned for a moment, and only then did he notice Qin Feiyang's cultivation.
He was indeed already a half-step God Realm.
This was too fast!
Plop!
After coming back to his senses, Jiang Dafei knelt on the ground and said gratefully: "Thank you, Young Lord."
A hundred years a day.
In other words, entering the castle to cultivate would save him more than ten thousand years.
This was simply a great fortune!
Qin Feiyang said: "I've said it before, when you're with me, don't kneel down so easily. I don't like this."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Jiang Dafei nodded repeatedly, then quickly got up and asked: "Then what excuse should I find?"
"Do you still need to ask me about such a simple matter?"
"Just tell the Dragon God Palace Master that you're going into seclusion to cultivate. Do you think he won't let you go?"
Qin Feiyang was speechless.
Jiang Dafei scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. "I was just too excited for a moment. My mind is a little muddled!"
Qin Feiyang shook his head and laughed.
Boom!
At this moment.
A terrifying aura descended outside the main hall.
"It's the Dragon God Palace Master!"
Jiang Dafei's expression immediately changed, and he transmitted his voice, "Young Lord, please step back."
Qin Feiyang smiled faintly, then stood up and entered the castle.
Bang!
Just as Qin Feiyang left, the hall's doors were blasted open by the Dragon God Hall Master.
"Greetings, milord."
Jiang Dafei hurriedly ran over and bowed.
The Dragon God Hall Master walked into the main hall and frowned. "Why are you closing the door in broad daylight?"
"Milord."
"That old man and young man have looted the City Lord's Mansions of the major cities. It has already caused a great impact on us Dragons."
"This subordinate was thinking about how to eliminate these negative effects. That's why I closed the door and didn't want to be disturbed."
Jiang Dafei said.
"I see!"
Hearing this, the Dragon God Hall Master's expression eased a lot. "I have seen your loyalty, but your cultivation is not enough. Otherwise, I would definitely let you be the City Lord of the Holy Dragon City."
"Thank you for your appreciation, milord."
"Actually, this lowly one is about to break through. As long as milord can give this lowly one a little more time."
Jiang Dafei said.
The Dragon God Hall Master was stunned and asked, "How long will it take?"
Jiang Dafei said, "At most a year."
"Alright then."
"It's only a year. It'll pass in the blink of an eye."
"I'll give you a year."
"But if you still haven't broken through after a year, I can only choose someone else."
The Dragon God Hall Master said.
Jiang Dafei was wild with joy. He bowed and said, "Thank you, milord. Then this lowly one will go into seclusion!"
"Go now?"
"Aren't you too impatient!"
The Dragon God Hall Master shook his head helplessly and said, "There's no hurry to go into seclusion. I have a task for you to complete."
"Milord, please speak."
Jiang Dafei was stunned and said respectfully.
"Go and spread a message."
"Tomorrow at noon, the City Lord's Mansion will behead that old man and young man on the plains outside the Dragon God Mountain Range."
The Dragon God Hall Master said.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Dafei was stunned and nodded with a smile. "That's a good idea. Beheading them in public will definitely have the effect of killing one to warn a hundred!"
"That's right."
The Dragon God Hall Master nodded.
Jiang Dafei said suspiciously, "Milord, may I ask where that old man and young man are now?"
The Dragon God Hall Master's eyes immediately turned cold. "If you follow me, you must first know one thing. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"This lowly one knows his mistake. Please forgive me, milord."
Jiang Dafei's expression changed and he hurriedly lowered his head.
"Alright!"
"Go and arrange it."
After the Dragon God Hall Master finished speaking, he walked out.
"Farewell, milord."
Jiang Dafei bowed and said.
After sending off the Dragon God Hall Master, Jiang Dafei lowered his head and pondered for a while. Then, he called in a few guards guarding outside the door, gave them a few instructions, and let them leave.
Whoosh!
After the guards left, Qin Feiyang appeared beside Jiang Dafei.
Jiang Dafei hurriedly closed the door and turned to look at Qin Feiyang. He said in a low voice, "Young Lord, what do you think of this matter?"
"I don't know."
Qin Feiyang shook his head and said, "But I'm thinking that beheading in public is really just to warn a hundred?"
"Young Lord, do you mean that they have other motives?"
Jiang Dafei was surprised.
Qin Feiyang pondered for a while and said, "First, tell me in detail what that old man and young man have done in the past five years."
"Okay."
"It's like this …"
Jiang Dafei slowly narrated.
Hearing a certain part, Qin Feiyang suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Wait a minute, they only looted the City Lord's Mansion's treasury?"
"Yes."
Jiang Dafei nodded.
"What about the herb fields?"
"Crystal veins?"
"Spirit veins?"
Qin Feiyang asked.
"No."
Jiang Dafei shook his head and asked suspiciously, "Is there a problem?"
Qin Feiyang said, "Then don't you think that there is indeed a problem?"
"This subordinate is slow-witted and can't see any problem."
Jiang Dafei said.
Qin Feiyang said, "Then in your opinion, why didn't they loot the herb fields, crystal veins, and spirit veins?"
"Because the herb fields are usually protected by barriers."
"And the herb fields are usually very hidden, and it takes time to find them."
"And it's also possible that they are only interested in the treasures in the treasury."
Jiang Dafei said.
"So that's what you think."
"Not only you, I believe that many people think so too."
"Of course."
"This is also pardonable."
"After all, such a big thing happened. They were all shocked and naturally ignored the herb fields."
"But the herb fields are exactly the main point."
"Since they looted the treasury, why didn't they also loot the herb fields, crystal veins, and spirit veins?"
"Don't they have the ability?"
"Can a mere barrier stop them?"
"As for the concealment you mentioned, it's even less of a problem."
"Because the treasury is also very hidden."
"They can even find the treasury, how can they not find the herb fields?"
Qin Feiyang said.
"That makes sense."
Jiang Dafei was stunned and nodded, saying, "Then what do you think?"
"They only looted the treasury, but ignored the more valuable herb fields, crystal veins, and spirit veins …"
Qin Feiyang pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly flashed and said, "This may be a trap, or even a show directed by the Dragons!"
"What?"
Jiang Dafei was shocked.
"If the old man and the young man really have a grudge against the Dragons, they will definitely kill them."
"Like me."
"Whether it's the City Lord's Mansion in Black Rock City or your City Lord's Mansion in Holy Dragon City, nothing is left."
"Also."
"Why didn't the Dragons appear when the old man and the young man ran amok in the north for five years?"
Qin Feiyang sneered.
"Yes!"
"The Dragons immediately gave the order to hunt them down."
Jiang Dafei said.
"Yes."
"But what does the order mean?"
"Did the Dragons send anyone?"
"Not to mention the Revered Dragon, such a big matter should have alarmed a few Ancestral Dragons!"
"But who has come in the past five years?"
"No one came and they gave the order. Is this reasonable?"
Qin Feiyang said.
Jiang Dafei thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "After hearing what you said, it does seem unreasonable …"
Speaking of this, Jiang Dafei frowned and said, "But now, isn't Ye Zhong overseeing the north? There's no need for the Revered Dragon and the other Ancestral Dragons to come in person! "
"Ye Zhong is a human after all."
"Moreover, the old man and the young man were only caught a few days ago."
"In other words …"
"Ye Zhong has been somewhat helpless in the past five years."
"Look at the Dragons."
"They have always thought highly of themselves and can't tolerate anyone having the slightest disobedience in front of them."
"Do you think that with their character, they will tolerate two humans jumping around happily for so long?"
Qin Feiyang said.
"That makes sense."
Jiang Dafei nodded and said in a deep voice, "It seems that this should be a self-directed show, but what is their purpose?"
"I don't know."
"But there must be a conspiracy."
Qin Feiyang frowned.
Suddenly!
His gaze trembled as he thought of the mission that Fan Yunzhang mentioned.
Looking at Qin Feiyang's abnormality, Jiang Dafei hurriedly said, "Young Lord, did you think of something?"
"Did the Divine General give me another mission?"
Qin Feiyang said.
"It seems that Fan Yunzhang has already told you."
"That's right."
"The upper echelons of the Dragon Slayer Palace are now suspecting that the old man and the young man may be a match for the Dragons, so they asked us to tell you to think of a way to save them."
Jiang Dafei nodded.
"Could the Dragons' purpose be to lure the Dragon Slayer Palace to take action?"
Qin Feiyang asked.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Dafei was shocked.
"Well, there's really such a possibility."
"Looting the treasury wantonly."
"Openly going against the Dragons."
"The old man and the young man may be trying to mislead the Dragon Slayer Palace into thinking that they are the Dragons' mortal enemies."
"And previously, the Palace Master of the Dragon God Palace even asked me to deliberately spread the news …"
At this point, Jiang Dafei's expression changed drastically. He looked at Qin Feiyang and growled, "Young Lord, the old man and the young man are 100% bait because the people of the Dragon Slayer Palace have always been elusive. The Dragons can't find us, so they thought of this method to lure the snake out of its hole!"
