If it were anyone else, they would have panicked and let the cat out of the bag under the questioning of the Cloud State Governor.
But Qin Feiyang was calm.
His mind was racing as he tried to come up with a solution.
He didn't expect the Cloud State Governor to come looking for him so suddenly and so quickly.
"What's wrong?"
"Guilty? You have nothing to say?"
The Cloud State Governor sneered.
"Guilty?"
Qin Feiyang looked helpless and said, "Senior, forgive me for being blunt, but I don't know what you're talking about. How can I be guilty?"
The Cloud State Governor was furious.
"Senior, don't be so angry. Let me think about it first."
Qin Feiyang pondered for a while and said, "If I'm not wrong, you're suspecting me because the elixir fire in the inner hall of the Cloud State was stolen and the elixir with three elixir patterns and a battle art that could reflect the opponent's power?"
"That's right."
The Cloud State Governor nodded.
"But senior, I've never been to the Cloud State and I don't know where it is."
"Moreover, the nine states are vast and there are many talents. Are you so sure that no one else can refine an elixir with three elixir patterns? No one else has a battle art that can reflect the opponent's attack? "
"Senior, I can understand how you feel, but you can't be unreasonable and insist that it's me. You have to have proof."
Qin Feiyang said with a wronged expression.
The Cloud State Governor's face twitched. How dare he say that she was unreasonable? What an eloquent tongue!
"As the Cloud State Governor, I know the geniuses of the other states quite well. There's no such person."
She held back her anger and gritted her teeth.
"Senior, you're the Cloud State Governor. I'm sorry for my rudeness. I apologize to you solemnly."
"However, Senior, we are now discussing the matter as it is, so don't blame Junior for being too harsh with his words."
"Senior, you're being too presumptuous."
"How should I put it?"
"It's true that you're the Cloud State Governor and you know the geniuses of the other states."
"But senior, have you thought about the countless geniuses in the nine states? Some are high-profile while others are low-key."
"And for those low-key people, even if they're standing in front of you, you won't know their talents and abilities."
"Why do you say no?"
Qin Feiyang said.
Hearing this, the Yun State Mansion Master was speechless for a moment.
"Senior, if you can show me proof, I'll let you."
"But if you can't, then you'll have to give me an explanation."
"After all, this is not a small matter..
Qin Feiyang again.
The Governor of Cloud State looked gloomy.
Only now did she realize that she shouldn't have come to the Spiritual State. She had brought humiliation upon herself!
.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she said in a low voice, "Previously, when I was in the restaurant, I heard that you had been missing for a long time. How do you explain that?"
.........
Qin Feiyang paused and said helplessly, "I've been cultivating in seclusion. I just didn't show myself in front of others. If you don't believe me, you can ask the old man."
"Of course, it's also because I'm too eye-catching. After not seeing me for a while, people couldn't help but make wild guesses."
Qin Feiyang added.
"Narcissistic little slick."
The old man couldn't help but roll his eyes.
The Cloud State Governor was also speechless.
But after hearing Qin Feiyang's words, she couldn't find any other suspicious points.
No!
There was another suspicious point!
She looked at Qin Feiyang and said, "If I'm not wrong, you're an Eight Star Combat Emperor?"
Qin Feiyang nodded and asked in confusion, "Is there a problem?"
"Of course!"
"Because the person who stole the alchemy fire is also an Eight Star Combat Emperor!"
The Cloud State Governor said in a deep voice.
Qin Feiyang felt a chill in his heart and said angrily, "Senior, there are Eight Star Combat Emperors everywhere in the nine continents. Can this be considered a reason?"
The Cloud State Governor lost his patience and shouted, "They're both Eight Star Combat Emperors and Alchemists. They've also mastered the art of reflecting the opponent's attack. Is this a coincidence?"
"Yes, there are very few such coincidences in the world."
"But I'll say it again. Just because you don't know, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The key is the evidence."
"I don't want to say anything more. If you have evidence, just take it out. If you don't, don't talk nonsense here."
Qin Feiyang said expressionlessly. He stood behind the old man and lowered his head in silence.
The Cloud State Governor looked at Qin Feiyang and then at the old man.
"Don't look at me."
"During this period, Feiyang has been in seclusion. And he's in seclusion at my place."
"So what you said doesn't exist at all."
The old man said lightly.
The Cloud State Governor was silent for a while and said, "If that's the case, then I'll have to bother you."
"What's wrong?"
"Do you think you can leave after slandering the people of the Spiritual State?"
The old man raised his eyebrows.
"What do you want?"
The Cloud State Governor's eyes turned gloomy.
"Feiyang is just a child. His mind is still very fragile. He must be very upset after being wronged by you. Shouldn't you give him some compensation?"
"I'll say it here. If you can't settle this today, I'll go to the capital three months later and complain to the emperor about you!"
The old man sneered.
"You …"
The Cloud State Governor was furious, but he didn't know how to refute.
In the end.
She took out a jade scroll from her Qiankun Pouch and threw it on the stone table. Then she opened a portal and left angrily.
Qin Feiyang saw the jade scroll and his eyes lit up. He reached out to grab it.
But then.
The Governor slapped his arm and said angrily, "You caused so much trouble for me and you still want this jade scroll?"
Qin Feiyang rubbed his arm and said sadly, "I didn't cause any trouble!"
"Humph!"
The Governor snorted and said, "Then tell me now. Did you take away the alchemy fire in the inner hall of the Cloud State? If you dare to lie, don't even think about participating in the Battle of the Nine States. "
"Well …"
Qin Feiyang frowned and said helplessly, "Okay, I admit it. I took it."
"You really …"
The Governor stood up and glared at Qin Feiyang, but then he smiled brightly and patted Qin Feiyang's shoulder. He nodded and said, "You're good."
"Uh!"
Qin Feiyang was stunned.
He thought the old man would be furious and teach him a lesson. He didn't expect the old man to praise him.
What was going on?
Was the old man's brain cramping?
The old man sneered and said, "This woman is not a good person. I'm very satisfied with what you did."
"Oh!"
Qin Feiyang understood.
It seemed that there was an irreconcilable grudge between the old man and the Governor of Cloud State.
"Actually, I didn't want you to go to Cloud State not because I was afraid that you would cause trouble, but because I was afraid that you would die there."
"Because that woman is very vicious."
"The Situ family, which was once loyal to her, was destroyed by her in the end because of a scoundrel's instigation!"
The old man said with a strong hatred in his eyes.
"Hmm?"
Qin Feiyang looked at him curiously and asked, "You know about the Situ family too?"
"Of course I do. The Ancestor of the Situ family is my close friend."
"When I heard the bad news of his death, I was very angry. The last time I went to the imperial capital, I even mentioned it to the Emperor."
"But this woman was full of excuses. The Emperor was high and mighty and didn't want to care about this. Then, the matter was left unsettled."
"I'm also powerless!"
The old man sighed.
"I see."
Qin Feiyang suddenly realized that this was the reason why the old man didn't like the Governor of Cloud State.
He smiled and said, "The Situ family is not actually extinct. There is still a descendant alive."
"Who?"
The old man looked at him in surprise.
"You've seen him before, but he's not here now."
Qin Feiyang said.
"I've seen him before?"
The old man was surprised.
Buzz!
At this moment, Qin Feiyang's image crystal made a sound. When he took it out, Fatso's image quickly appeared.
Fatso smiled and said, "Boss, it's done. Where are you now?"
Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "I'm at the old man's place. I happened to mention you. Come over quickly."
"Mention me?"
Fatso was stunned. After turning off the image crystal, he arrived in the courtyard in less than three breaths.
Qin Feiyang patted Fatso's shoulder and looked at the old man. "The person I was talking about is him."
"Hmm?"
The old man immediately looked at Fatso.
Qin Feiyang said, "Fatso is a descendant of the Situ family. He's also the son of the patriarch. This time, he's going to Cloud State mainly to pay respects to his family."
"Really?"
The old man looked at Fatso and asked.
Fatso was a little confused.
Seeing this, Qin Feiyang also told Fatso that the old man and the Situ family's patriarch were close friends.
"The patriarch and the old man are old acquaintances?"
Fatso was shocked.
This was really unexpected.
When he came back to his senses, he nodded and said to the old man, "I'm indeed a descendant of the Situ family."
"Great!"
The old man was quite excited. He said, "Work hard. You must clear your patriarch's name."
"I definitely will."
Fatso clenched his fists. His eyes were filled with an extremely determined light.
The old man nodded and asked, "Is there anyone else in the Situ family who's still alive?"
"Only the butler and I are left."
"It was the butler who sent me to the Spiritual State back then."
Fatso said in disappointment.
"It's been hard on you."
"The butler is too much. It's not like he doesn't know my relationship with your patriarch. He should've sent you directly to me back then."
"You wouldn't have to wander outside."
The old man sighed.
"Maybe the butler didn't want to cause trouble for you."
"Maybe it's because I wasn't talented back then. He wanted me to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life in the Spiritual State."
"However, I have to thank him for not doing so back then."
"Because that way, I wouldn't have met the boss in Black Bear City."
"Now, I won't have such achievements."
Fatso smiled.
"That's true."
"The two of you might have been fated to meet."
"Tell me, other than taking away the alchemy fire, what else did you do in Cloud State?"
The Mansion Master asked.
Qin Feiyang and the old man immediately looked at each other and smiled.
Fatso chuckled. "Actually, we didn't do much. We just killed Commander Nie."
"Uh!"
The old man was shocked.
Of course, he knew about Commander Nie. He was a genuine Combat Master.
Qin Feiyang continued, "Other than the alchemy fire in the inner palace, we also took away another type of fourth-grade alchemy fire."
"What?"
The old man's eyes widened.
Fatso continued, "We killed all the Seven Star Combat Emperors and Eight Star Combat Emperors in the inner palace. Even a Nine Star Combat Emperor died."
Immediately.
The old man's face couldn't help but twitch.
'We didn't do anything?'
Fatso chuckled. "Actually, we're still keeping a low profile. We could've killed the Pill Hall Master, but the boss let him go."
"Uh!"
The old man was shocked again. 'This is considered keeping a low profile?'
'That's not right!'
Suddenly.
He looked at Qin Feiyang and frowned. "Why did you take so many alchemy fires?"
