In the battle between the Qin Dynasty and the Liu Kingdom, the king of Liu actually didn't return to help the Liu Kingdom. Instead, he killed his way into the Qin palace, causing great damage to the Qin Dynasty. They were too careless.
Of course, this battle didn't really shake the foundation of the Qin Dynasty. What truly determined the strength of a force was still the top combat power.
For example, the Cottage only had a few disciples, but to the Qin Dynasty, the Cottage was more threatening than any force in the Eastern Barren Territory. There was no other reason. The top combat power was too strong. One person could fight a country.
In the current Eastern Barren Territory, what level could be called the top combat power? Naturally, it had to be someone who understood the Sage Intent or had a Sage-level weapon or ritual implement.
The Qin Dynasty dared to fight for the world because they already had both conditions. They also had the Donghua Clan as their ally. The top combat power and foundation of the two forces were enough to shake the Eastern Barren Territory.
The Qin Dynasty and the Donghua Clan had agreed that after conquering the world, the Qin Dynasty would be in charge of all affairs and the Donghua Clan would be the top clan in the Eastern Barren Territory. They would control the cultivation world and rule the world together.
The madness of the king of Liu made the Qin Dynasty pay a great price, but it was nothing compared to the destruction of the Liu Kingdom. Moreover, many strong cultivators of the Liu Kingdom had already surrendered.
To the Qin Dynasty now, they only needed to raise their arms and call the world to attack the Cottage and conquer the Eastern Barren Territory.
At the moment, in a luxurious hall in the Qin palace, many top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory were present.
Qin Yu, the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, sat high on the throne. Below him, many strong cultivators from the Donghua Clan, Fuyun Sword Clan, Royal Xuan Temple, and other forces had arrived.
Even the Ji Family had sent strong cultivators to visit the Qin palace.
"The Fuyun Sword Clan originally wanted to hand Ye Wuchen over to the Qin Dynasty. However, Ye Wuchen still hasn't returned and entered the Cottage with Ye Futian," a strong cultivator of the Fuyun Sword Clan said to Qin Yu.
The Qin Dynasty directly destroyed the Liu Kingdom, which was just as famous as the Fuyun Sword Clan. How could the Fuyun Sword Clan not be afraid?
Qin Yuan was killed by the Fuyun Sword Clan. They naturally had to explain.
"I understand," Qin Yu said. Qin Yu said, "I have already ordered Qin Ge to go to the Cottage to ask for Ye Futian. However, the Cottage is so unscrupulous. It is very likely that they will not hand him over. At that time, what does the Fuyun Sword Clan think we should do?"
"The Fuyun Sword Clan is willing to go with the Qin Dynasty to negotiate with the Cottage." The strong cultivator from the Fuyun Sword Clan said, "Moreover, this is a matter of the Qin Dynasty. How would the Cottage dare to not hand him over?"
"That's right. With how powerful the Qin Dynasty is now, the Cottage will definitely hand him over. After all, this has nothing to do with the Cottage," someone from the Ji Family said.
"If the Cottage dares to break the rules of the Eastern Barren Territory so recklessly, I'm sure all the forces in the Eastern Barren Territory will respond." The person from the Royal Xuan Temple was the fifth lord of the Eastern Barren Territory, He Yulu. With the Liu Kingdom destroyed, which force in the Eastern Barren Territory wouldn't tremble?
The Royal Xuan Temple had a connection with the Qin Dynasty before, so it was only natural that they would be closer now.
Moreover, they had old grudges with the Cottage.
"When the time comes, I hope everyone will support me," Qin Yu said with a smile. What was their goal in destroying the Liu Kingdom? Wasn't it because he wanted to show off the Qin Dynasty's power and intimidate the other forces in the Eastern Barren Territory?
Although the Fuyun Sword Clan, Royal Xuan Temple, and other forces were very close to them, they still had their own agendas. Only absolute power could make them respect and even fear the Qin Dynasty.
Not just these two forces. On the day that the Qin Dynasty attacked the Cottage, he would ask all the forces in the world to join forces. Who would dare to disobey?
Just then, footsteps came from outside the hall. It seemed to be a bit frantic. Soon, a figure appeared at the door. He looked at Qin Yu and bowed. "Your Highness."
"What's the matter?" Qin Yu asked, looking up.
"Your Highness …" The person's mouth trembled. He seemed to want to say something but stopped. He even glanced at the people from the other forces.
"We're all on the same side. Just say it," Qin Yu said.
"The third prince's spiritual imprint has been destroyed," the person said, lowering his head and bowing.
Qin Yu's body trembled slightly. His sharp eyes released a terrifying ray of coldness. He leaned forward and there seemed to be a violent aura that he couldn't suppress.
"Are you sure?" Qin Yu asked coldly.
"Your Highness, not just the third prince, but all the Nobles who went this time had their spiritual imprints destroyed." The person lowered his head even more and his voice trembled.
Qin Yu stood up, his eyes cold to the extreme.
Qin Ge and the people from the Qin Dynasty had all been destroyed. He naturally knew what this meant. The Cottage was declaring war directly.
He definitely didn't expect that the Cottage would be so decisive and kill Qin Ge and the others. After all, up until now, they hadn't really declared war with the Cottage. They only went to ask for Qin Ge.
Even if the Cottage didn't hand them over, why did they kill them?
Moreover, they killed a prince of the Qin Dynasty.
A sharp look also flashed across the eyes of the Fuyun Sword Clan's cultivator. He naturally understood what the person meant. Qin Ge and the others who went to the Cottage to ask for Qin Ge were all dead.
He Yulu squinted. He remembered how his daughter had been forced to die. As expected, the Cottage was still so domineering and ignored everything.
The Ji Family cultivator's expression froze and his heart trembled violently.
The Qin Dynasty cultivators who went to the Cottage to ask for Qin Ge were all killed.
Was this the Cottage's response to the Qin Dynasty?
"What do you think?" Qin Yu suppressed his anger and looked at everyone present.
"The Cottage is so arrogant. They actually disobeyed the rules," the Fuyun Sword Clan cultivator said angrily.
"If we don't destroy the Cottage, the Qin Prince would have died for nothing," He Yulu said coldly. "The Qin Dynasty should immediately send troops to the Cottage."
"I wish the Qin Dynasty a great victory and a great victory," the Ji Family cultivator said. An expert from the Ji Family cupped his hands and said. Qin Yu looked at the crowd. Their words now were different from before.
"Everyone, please go back first. I'll discuss this with my father now. The Cottage will definitely pay the price," Qin Yu said coldly. Everyone bid farewell and left.
After they left, Qin Yu slammed his palm on the chair. Instantly, the chair collapsed and shattered. A terrifying murderous intent flowed from his body.
The Cottage's strength not only killed Qin Ge but also made all the top forces even more fearful. Now, it wouldn't be easy to order them to attack.
The Qin Dynasty destroyed the Liu Kingdom to show its strength and show its dominance. However, because of Qin Ge's death, it was directly shaken.
If it was before, many people would respond to the Qin Dynasty if he ordered the world.
But now, the Cottage directly killed the Qin Dynasty's prince. Wouldn't the Qin Dynasty take revenge and destroy the Cottage?
Qin Yuan's death caused the Liu Kingdom to be destroyed. What the Cottage did was much more domineering than the Liu Kingdom. Would the Qin Dynasty start a war?
All the top forces could only choose to wait and see.
…
What happened outside Book Mountain quickly spread to all the top forces in the Eastern Barren Territory. Countless people were shocked.
The Qin Dynasty destroyed the Liu Kingdom. The Cottage's third disciple, Gu Dongliu, killed Qin Ge.
There seemed to be a reason but in reality, there was no reason. The two top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory clashed head-on for the first time.
Previously, even when the Cottage's second disciple, Zhuge Hui, destroyed the gate of the Dongqin College in Chaoge City, the Qin Dynasty still tolerated it. They even helped the Cottage find the real murderer of Ye Futian. After all, the assassination happened in the Qin Dynasty's territory. The Qin Dynasty's tolerance was understandable.
But what about this time?
Would they start a war?
The Liu Kingdom's destruction and Qin Ge's death made the atmosphere in the Eastern Barren Territory even more tense. A storm was brewing and a war seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
Now, countless people were discussing. If the domineering Qin Dynasty and the arrogant Cottage really clashed, what would the outcome be?
On Book Mountain, the Cottage didn't seem to change because of Qin Ge's death. It was still as calm and peaceful as before.
Liu Feiyang and Liu Chenyu officially entered the College to cultivate. Ye Wuchen was a disciple of the Fuyun Sword Clan and focused on swordsmanship. Now, they were all eager to improve their abilities through cultivation. In the face of the great changes in the Eastern Barren Territory, they were too weak. Only when they were strong enough and had the ability of Gu Dongliu could they truly be qualified to participate in the game of the Eastern Barren Territory.
"Senior Sister, Senior Brother, will the Qin Dynasty start a war?" Ye Futian asked everyone at the table.
"I don't know." Luo Fan shook his head. "But no matter if they start a war or not, it won't be easy for the Qin Dynasty to borrow the power of the other forces in the Eastern Barren Territory."
Whoever dared to participate in the war had to be mentally prepared for destruction.
Ye Futian nodded. Second Senior Sister asked Third Senior Brother to disable Qin Ge and the others with one sentence. At that time, he even thought that Second Senior Sister did it on impulse. But later, he realized that Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Brother's actions didn't stem from anger but also from shock.
The Qin Dynasty destroyed the Liu Kingdom and targeted the Cottage. At that moment, the Cottage understood that this war would come sooner or later. Since that was the case, why wait?
If they killed Qin Ge, the other forces would be even more afraid of the Cottage and wouldn't dare to easily ally with the Qin Dynasty.
"What's Master's level?" Ye Futian asked. In reality, he still didn't know the Cottage's true ability. The Cottage's First Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Brother, and Master were all top figures. However, he only knew what level Third Senior Brother Gu Dongliu's ability was.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't worried at all. Since the Qin Dynasty dared to fight for the world, they naturally had great confidence.
"Little guy, don't think so much. Just cultivate well. In the future, I still need to rely on you to protect me." Second Senior Sister smiled and glanced at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian smiled shakily. He was depressed inside, but looking at Second Senior Sister, he said seriously, "In the future, I will definitely protect Second Senior Sister."
"Okay, good boy." Zhuge Hui reached out and rubbed Ye Futian's head. Ye Futian was instantly stunned and his hands froze. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was an adult after all. Senior Sister, do you have to be like this?
"I originally wanted to use gentle methods to realize Master's dream in the Eastern Barren Territory, but now it seems that it's still a bit difficult." Second Senior Sister sighed slowly. The tree wants peace, but the wind doesn't stop!
