"In that case, we'll have to bother you."
Xuanyuan Qianxue and the other two hurriedly responded. Although Qin Yi's master's strength was not worth mentioning at the moment, they still respected him very much.
Led by Chu Zhenghao, the group of people walked toward the depths of Chi Tong Island.
Soon, they saw a village.
However, the village looked quite deserted, and not a single person could be seen!
Although they were puzzled, it was obviously a little inappropriate to ask these questions now. Therefore, the three of them hid their doubts in the bottom of their hearts and just silently followed Qin Yi and the others forward.
It had to be said that the environment of this place was quite good. It was just right for living in seclusion.
It seemed that no matter who the enemy was, they all had their own strengths.
After entering the village, Chu Zhenghao also led the group into a medium-sized house.
There was not much furniture in the house. Except for a few simple necessities, there was nothing else.
To be honest, from the furnishings of the house and Chu Zhenghao's clothes at the moment, it was impossible to tell that this old man had once been Qin Yi's master.
After entering the house, Chu Zhenghao invited everyone to sit down, and then poured tea for them before sitting down himself.
"By the way, Master!"
At this time, Qin Yi finally asked, "Why don't I see my two junior brothers?"
"You mean them?"
Chu Zhenghao said with a smile, "These two guys are quite good. They have already cultivated to the half-step Heaven Realm a year ago. I know they are not willing to stay here with an old guy like me, so I let them go out and explore! "
Hearing this, Qin Yi immediately nodded with relief.
Duan Xinghe and Cheng Tianhe were both his junior brothers and his friends.
All along, he had taken great care of them, especially Duan Xinghe.
It was especially so for Duan Xinghe, who possessed a powerful ice-attributed Spiritual Energy that even made Qin Yi feel a trace of pressure.
Obviously, Qin Yi still had high hopes for the two of them.
It had to be said that after returning, it was a good start for him to hear some news like this.
"Master, has my father contacted you during this period of time?"
At this moment, Liu Fu could not help but ask about her father.
"Your father …"
Chu Zhenghao paused for a second, then said, "He has never contacted me!"
"Did something happen to father?"
Liu Fu and her sister asked in unison. The two of them were very sensitive to such matters.
Their father, Liu Tianzong, had a good relationship with Chu Zhenghao.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have given his two daughters to Chu Zhenghao to raise!
After that, Chu Zhenghao went into seclusion while Liu Tianzong chose to stay in Jade Willow Country to manage his family.
Although the two of them were on completely different paths, it did not affect his relationship with Chu Zhenghao.
Moreover, Liu Tianzong knew that Chu Zhenghao was living in seclusion on Chi Tong Island. No matter how busy he was, it was fine for him to send a letter once in a while.
Most importantly, Liu Fu and her sister knew their father very well. Although their father looked very serious on the surface, he was actually a very affectionate person.
He had an old friend on Chi Tong Island. No matter what, Liu Tianzong would definitely contact him.
By now, they had been away for more than two years. During this period of time, Liu Tianzong had not contacted Chu Zhenghao. This could only mean one thing — something had happened to their father.
When they realized this, the two sisters could not sit still anymore.
"Don't worry!"
Chu Zhenghao said hurriedly. "Although he has not contacted me, I know a little about his situation."
"What happened to him?"
At this moment, the two sisters no longer had their usual carefree smiles. Anxiety was written all over their delicate faces.
"Actually, many things happened in the Snow Willow Region while you were away."
Chu Zhenghao began to explain, "First of all, let me tell you about your father's situation. Your father, he's alive and well. But now, he has become a mere figurehead. He is under surveillance at all times, so it is very inconvenient for him to contact me. He does not want to know where I am! "
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what happened, as long as Liu Tianzong was alive and well, that was the best news.
"What happened during this period of time?"
Qin Yi asked with a frown. He had clearly realized that things were not as optimistic as they had imagined.
Chu Zhenghao asked, "Do you still remember the Fifteenth Prince?"
Qin Yi nodded. "Of course! Could it be that he has done something earth-shattering? "
Chu Zhenghao nodded slightly. "A year ago, he successfully killed the previous emperor and took control of Jade Willow Country!"
"Looks like he did it after all."
Hearing this, Qin Yi and the others did not seem too surprised.
Before they left, the Fifteenth Prince, Lv Yuanlong's ambition was already clear. After losing his competitor, Lv Yuankai, his power had increased to an unprecedented level.
Even though he still had many competitors in front of him. But with his methods, it was expected that he would win in the end.
"Master, there is something I don't understand!"
At this time, Qin Yi expressed his confusion again. "Lv Yuanlong is not a good person, but the Liu Family and Lord Liu have always supported him. I saw that the two of them had a good relationship. Now that the other party has succeeded, it should be time for Lord Liu to become famous. Why is it that not only has he not been put in an important position, but he has also become a mere figurehead? "
"With your intelligence, you should be able to figure this out if you think about it."
Chu Zhenghao smiled faintly and said.
"When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden. When the cunning rabbit is dead, the hound is cooked! "
Qin Yi's eyes were slightly cold as he said this indifferently.
"That is part of the reason!"
Chu Zhenghao nodded slightly. "After he succeeded in usurping the throne, on the surface, Lv Yuanlong rewarded the Liu Family and Liu Tianzong greatly. But what he gave them were things that did not have much practical value. For example, titles such as the Protector of the Nation, the First Family, and so on. But the real resources were all in his hands a long time ago. "
Qin Yi laughed coldly. "I have to say, in this regard, Lv Yuanlong is quite like an emperor!"
