"You knew all along?"
The elder's eyes widened as he looked at Qin Yi in disbelief. It was obvious that he was shocked by this matter.
One had to know that this matter was rather confidential.
After all, even within the Deity Race, this matter wasn't something to be proud of. If other people in the race found out, it was very likely that they would have a dispute with the Divine King because of this.
Although the Divine King's position within the Deity Race was unparalleled. As long as it was his order, everyone had to obey.
However, after the incident with Zhuge Hanchi, the relationship within the Deity Race underwent a series of subtle changes.
Although Zhuge Hanchi received a very severe punishment in the end, his actions spread throughout the race.
Although the Divine King had achieved his initial goal of making an example out of him, Zhuge Hanchi's actions also caused many people in the race to gradually doubt the rationality of the Divine King's decision.
Moreover, for some reason, there were more and more people who stood up to oppose the Divine King recently. Although every one of them would be dealt with severely in the end, such people still kept popping up.
Regarding this matter, even the Divine King himself felt that it was rather troublesome.
After all, they were from his own race, and he couldn't just kill them.
One had to know that it wasn't easy for the Deity Race to survive to this day. The number of people in the race was also decreasing, which wasn't a good thing for a race to begin with.
If they still had to kill people at this time, it would be rather disadvantageous to the Deity Race's future development.
On the other hand, the Divine King himself had his own fears.
After all, the other party had only talked back to him and hadn't really done anything too excessive.
If they were to be executed just because they talked back to him, not only was this not enough reason, but it would also attract everyone's disgust.
It was very likely that when the time came, the deterrent effect that he wanted to achieve would instead arouse the opposition of others.
After all, the Divine King was the leader of the Deity Race. Although his character had always been rather vile, in reality, he still placed considerable importance on the development of the Deity Race. It was also precisely because of this that he didn't want a huge upheaval in the Deity Race that he ruled.
Although this was the case, when faced with such a situation, he would still put his so-called worries aside and start doing such crazy things.
Killing the Beastman King and replacing him. To be honest, this kind of thing wasn't rare in the Hundred Chuan Region.
There would always be a change of power.
Just like before, when they were in the Beast Tribe Kingdom, Qin Yi also fought against the former Beast King, the Black-Feathered Great Roc, in order to help Wen Xing ascend to the throne. In the end, Qin Yi killed the Black-Feathered Great Roc and successfully helped Wen Xing ascend to the throne.
However, this kind of matter was usually an internal problem of the major races, and it was rare for others to interfere. Not to mention that the ones who had interfered in this matter were the Deity Race, the race with the highest status in the entire Hundred Rivers Region.
They had never placed themselves with the other races. As the rulers of the Hundred Chuan Region, they rarely interfered in such matters.
However, now, he had ordered the assassination of the Orc Kingdom's King and had even nurtured a new candidate to replace the current King.
Of course, this wasn't a mistake. But there was no doubt that this would lower the Deity Race's standard. It made people feel that this high and mighty Deity Race was actually very dark.
As a ruler, this kind of public opinion was quite disadvantageous to them.
Therefore, if this matter was made known to the internal members of the Deity Race, based on the current situation, it was very likely that it would cause an even greater uproar.
The Divine King, who was already having a headache over this unforeseen event, naturally wouldn't dare to say such a thing at such a time.
Therefore, this matter was carried out in secret from the beginning to the end.
Even if they were sent over, it was done under circumstances where no one knew.
It was also because of this that when Qin Yi said this, the old man was completely stunned.
This was something that even the internal members of the Deity Race didn't know, so how did Qin Yi know?
Moreover, looking at the other party's appearance, it seemed like he had known a long time ago.
What was going on?
Who was it that leaked the secret?
But no matter how hard the old man tried, he still couldn't find any clues. As for the other people in their team, there was no possibility of them leaking the secret.
Although everyone had come here on orders, the old man was the only one who truly knew what to do next.
After all, to the Divine King, this was a secret that absolutely couldn't be leaked. Therefore, because he was worried that someone would leak the news in advance, he only told this matter to the old man.
Only after arriving here would everyone know what to do next.
But why was the news still leaked under such cautious circumstances?
He couldn't understand this point no matter how hard he thought about it.
"Forget it. Since I can't figure it out, then I won't think about it anymore!"
The old man shook his head forcefully and quickly came to a realization.
After all, he had already lived to such an old age, so he knew what should be prioritized and what should be prioritized.
"Since you know about this, then we definitely can't let you leave this place alive."
A cold glint appeared in the old man's eyes as he said to Qin Yi, "I think His Majesty the Divine King will be even happier if we bring your body back."
Qin Yi shook his head and said with a faint smile, "That's not necessarily true."
It was obvious that the old man didn't know how important Qin Yi was to the Divine King.
If the Divine King really wanted to kill Qin Yi, then Qin Yi would've been dead a long time ago. How could he still have the opportunity to stand here?
He possessed the ultimate secret of the Deity Race's strength, and this secret was more important to the Divine King than anything else.
How could he make a move on Qin Yi at a time like this?
Therefore, if the old man really succeeded in the end … The moment he brought back Qin Yi's body would be the moment of his demise!
Of course, with the abilities of the old man and the others, it was basically impossible for them to achieve this.
"Kill him."
The old man was expressionless as he ordered the people behind him.
Soon, the few figures standing behind him charged toward Qin Yi.
As for the old man himself, he changed his direction and charged toward the Beastman King.
It was obvious that even now, he hadn't forgotten his original goal.
From the looks of it, he could be considered a more responsible subordinate.
Chapter 3724: Against a Mysterious Warrior
But just when the old man thought that his helpers could kill Qin Yi, or at least delay him for a while, a figure flashed in front of him like a gust of wind.
"We're not done here yet, why are you leaving?"
Qin Yi looked at the other party with a faint smile.
"What's going on?"
The old man saw Qin Yi appear and was instantly shocked and furious.
Just as he was about to turn around and criticize his comrades for not doing their job well, he realized that the battle below had already begun. From the sounds, one could tell that the battle below was equally intense.
He couldn't help but turn around and see that his subordinates were being held up by several people.
There were even beasts among these people.
"What's going on? Could it be that the beasts are going to follow this guy to rebel against His Majesty? "
In fact, he didn't know that Qin Yi had already established a rather good relationship with the beasts a long time ago. As long as Qin Yi wanted to, he could easily find one or two powerful beasts to help him. That was definitely not a difficult task.
Obviously, before they came here, His Majesty the God King, whom they respected, did not tell them any information about Qin Yi.
Of course, the people fighting below were not the helpers that Qin Yi had recruited from the Beastman Kingdom. Instead, they were the scroll creatures that had been staying in Qin Yi's sea of consciousness all this time.
The Purple-Eyed Golden Bull and the others had not come out to fight for a long time. To be honest, staying in the scroll for too long was quite boring for them.
They were battle creatures. Even though they usually didn't display a very warlike personality, they would feel bored and have nothing to do when there was no real battle.
This time, they had found a rare opportunity to fight to their heart's content. Of course, they wouldn't miss it.
It was indeed a little too many for Qin Long to deal with eight or nine True Gods alone.
After all, although his combat power was valiant, he wasn't strong enough to deal with so many enemies by himself.
Moreover, the other party was from the Heavenly God Race, so their combat power was rather valiant.
Therefore, Qin Long definitely wouldn't be able to handle so many experts by himself.
Of course, Qin Long wasn't fighting alone. There were still five beastman experts helping him.
However, their combat power was really low. It was already rather strenuous for the five of them to deal with one, let alone so many.
That was why Qin Yi summoned the Purple-Eyed Golden Bull and the others.
However, if he summoned them, there would be an imbalance in the strength of both sides.
One had to know that as the creatures in the scroll, their strength was already very strong. It was just that Qin Yi's realm wasn't high enough to unseal all of their combat power. Now that Qin Yi was a True God, their combat power would be much stronger than Qin Yi's after they were unsealed.
If these creatures were to come out at once, even if there were eight or nine True Gods present, it wouldn't be enough for them to kill.
It was just that at the beginning, Qin Yi had already given the order not to kill a single one of these Heavenly God Race experts.
This way, it would be a test of their control over their strength.
Of course, it wasn't too difficult for them to achieve this. However, no matter what, they were still beastmen, and their nature was rather savage.
If they wanted to hold back, they would have to suppress their strength to a controllable level. This way, they wouldn't be able to unleash their powerful combat power.
Because of this, although the battle below was very intense, it would be rather difficult to win in a short period of time.
Fortunately, they weren't short of time, so they could play with the other party.
As for Qin Yi himself, he naturally had to deal with the old man in front of him.
"How is it, old man? Are you satisfied with the surprise I've given you? "
Qin Yi looked at the other party with undisguised mockery.
The old man's gaze turned cold as he said, "Qin Yi, don't look down on me. Back then, I was someone who fought for the Divine King's throne! Do you really think that a youngster like you can defeat me? "
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "Fought for it? Doesn't that mean that you were already a loser back then? You're already so old now. Do you really think that you can do anything to me with that body of yours? "
"Brat!"
The old man roared and his face suddenly became ferocious.
To be honest, he really hadn't expected that his original intention of bragging about his glorious achievements back then would be pointed at his sore spot.
Back then, he had indeed fought with the current Divine King. However, in the end, the gap between his strength had gradually widened, and his talent hadn't been comparable to that of the current Divine King.
In the end, he knew that there was no hope, so he had chosen to give up.
Over the years, although he had been working hard for the current Divine King and seemed very loyal, their fight back then had always been a scar in his heart.
Once he was reminded of the fact that he had failed back then, he would completely lose control of his emotions.
Now that his sore spot had been mocked by Qin Yi, how could he not be angry?
"I, Zhuge Xinglan, am going to kill you today, you little thief. I'll let you know the price you'll pay for making fun of me!"
Qin Yi laughed and said, "To be honest, I'm really not interested in your name. However, I'm very interested in what you said about making me pay. I hope you won't disappoint me! "
Zhuge Xinglan roared as a galaxy appeared on his palm and enveloped Qin Yi.
It had to be said that although this old fellow looked old, his strength was really strong. At his level, there was almost no one in the entire Hundred Rivers Domain that could threaten him.
Unfortunately, his opponent this time was Qin Yi.
Although Zhuge Xinglan had also reached the Mysterious Position, his aura was still much weaker than that of a Divine King.
Although Qin Yi was currently in the Godly Position, he already had the ability to fight against a Mysterious Position martialist.
To him, encountering an opponent like Zhuge Xinglan was something that he couldn't have wished for more.
Just as his opponent's attack was about to hit him, he suddenly raised his hand and punched his opponent with a golden glow!
