Originally, Huangfu Guiyi was a disciple of a mysterious god and followed him to travel the Infinity Realm. He had only returned once or twice in the past few centuries.
Just when everyone thought that Huangfu Guiyi would not participate in the Heaven-Reaching Ceremony, Huangfu Guiyi had returned. What's more, he had defeated all the Low-Level Gods in the Divine Martial Kingdom in a single day. Even someone as strong as Qiao Ganlin had been defeated by him.
There was not a single low-level god in the Divine Martial Kingdom that could go against him. If Huangfu Guiyi really participated in the Heaven-Reaching Ceremony, he would definitely be the champion.
Once Huangfu Guiyi became the champion of the Heaven-Reaching Ceremony, the Iron Mountain King's faction that had been suppressed with great difficulty would definitely rise again. The consequences would be unimaginable.
After discovering Qin Feng's whereabouts, Qiao Ganlin and the others immediately headed to the borders to search for Qin Feng!
Qiao Ganlin had fought with Huangfu Guiyi and Qin Feng before and knew how powerful they were. If there was anyone in the Divine Martial Kingdom that could go against Huangfu Guiyi, it would be Qin Feng.
However, they were unable to move Qin Feng, and Qin Feng was not prepared to participate in the Divine Martial Kingdom's internal strife. This time, they seemed to be returning in failure.
Suddenly, the space in front of Qiao Ganlin trembled, and Qin Feng appeared in front of the three of them. "Is that Huangfu Guiyi very powerful?"
"He is invincible among the low-level gods in the Divine Martial Kingdom!" Qiao Ganlin nodded.
"If I enter the Divine Martial Kingdom openly, will my life be in danger?" Qin Feng asked.
"You are the Crown Prince's honored guest. Now that the Crown Prince has great authority, the Iron Mountain King can't even take care of himself. Even if he wants to make a move on Senior, he is powerless!" Qiao Ganlin hurriedly explained. It seemed that Qin Feng was prepared to cooperate with the Crown Prince.
Moreover, there was one thing that Qiao Ganlin did not mention, and that was the numerous Divine Weapons in Qin Feng's hands. This was a huge deterrent. No one was willing to provoke a madman who could throw out hundreds and thousands of Divine Weapons at any time and place!
Even so, after knowing that Qin Feng was preparing to step into the Divine Martial Kingdom, Qiao Ganlin still admired Qin Feng's courage!
Back in the Chaos World, Qin Feng had killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers under the Iron Mountain King and had already formed a blood feud with the Iron Mountain King. The explosion at the Five Deities Sect had offended both the Five Deities Sect and the Iron Mountain King. Right now, there were countless people in the Divine Martial Kingdom who wanted to kill Qin Feng, and he actually dared to follow them into the Divine Martial Kingdom!
"Are you really prepared to return to the Divine Martial Kingdom with us?" Qiao Ganlin was still in disbelief. Qin Feng actually agreed?
"Why? Weren't you the ones who requested for me to return to the Divine Martial Kingdom and meet that Huangfu Guiyi?" Qin Feng asked in return.
"Well … although that's what I said, I really didn't expect you to agree." Qiao Ganlin smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I've seen too many rotten fish and shrimps, so I'd like to meet a true expert. Since you've praised this Huangfu Guiyi so highly, of course I'd like to meet him!" Qin Feng smiled.
"Swish!"
As he spoke, he casually threw out a few Golden Feathered Darts, which broke through layers of space and disappeared into the horizon.
After seeing Qin Feng use the Golden Feathered Darts, Qiao Ganlin and the others naturally knew that Qin Feng was setting up a backup plan. Even if someone really wanted to harm him after entering the Divine Martial Kingdom, he would still be able to rely on these backup plans to escape safely.
"Let's go. I haven't been able to eat or sleep well on this mountain for the past two days. There should be a lot of good food in the Divine Martial Kingdom's imperial capital, right?" Qin Feng asked.
"That's for sure. Senior is the Crown Prince's honored guest. In the Divine Martial Kingdom, you would naturally enjoy the highest level of treatment!" Qiao Ganlin smiled and nodded.
"That … Senior … there's one more thing I'd like to clarify!"
"If it's about robbing Yang Fei, there's no need to ask. I did it!" Qin Feng nodded.
"I see. Then can Senior return the one million kilograms of Black Dazzling Iron Essence to the Crown Prince? The procurement might be done by the Iron Mountain King's men, but this one million kilograms of Black Dazzling Iron Essence was indeed purchased for the Divine Martial Kingdom's army …"
"It's all used up!" Before Qiao Ganlin could finish his sentence, Qin Feng immediately interrupted him!
"It's … it's all used up!" Qiao Ganlin and the others widened their eyes like copper bells, but they didn't continue asking.
Qin Feng obviously wasn't willing to hand over the one million kilograms of Black Dazzling Iron Essence, and there was no need for them to continue asking.
Qiao Ganlin purposely set up a secret route and tried his best to avoid all the cities and towns in the Divine Martial Kingdom. With their speed, they would be able to enter the imperial capital within three days. Once they entered the imperial capital, even the Iron Mountain King would have to think twice before making a move.
"To think that you made the Crown Prince sound so formidable. I didn't think that he would actually sneak into the imperial capital!" Qin Feng curled his lips.
"The Iron Mountain King's influence is far beyond your imagination. The Crown Prince might have used his influence to suppress the Iron Mountain King, but there's a saying that 'a centipede dies but never falls down.' There are still plenty of people in the Divine Martial Kingdom who are loyal to the Iron Mountain King. These people are a huge problem!" Yin Chan said.
"For example, that woman who controls the insects?" Qin Feng suddenly stopped and looked at the black clouds in the distance.
"Woman who controls the insects? What woman … I'll be damned!"
When Yin Chan noticed the swarm of insects that was rapidly approaching from a hundred miles away, he couldn't help but gasp.
"They are so fast. How did they discover us?" Wen Hai had an ashen expression.
"They followed you here. How could they not know if they were being followed?" Qin Feng shook his head with disdain.
"Be careful. This person is one of the four insects under the Iron Mountain King, the female insect Cao Mei!" Qiao Ganlin reached out his hand, and a mid-tier Middle-level divine sword appeared in his hand.
He had obtained this sword from the Land of the Fallen Gods. After asking a master to appraise it in the Divine Martial Kingdom, it was confirmed that this sword was called the Swimming Dragon Phantom Sword, a mid-tier Middle-level divine artifact!
If it was in the past, with Qiao Ganlin's cultivation level, he would never be able to wear a mid-tier Middle-level divine artifact. However, he had brought back a large number of divine artifacts from the Land of the Fallen Gods and made a great contribution to the Qiao Clan. The Qiao Clan's elders had specially bestowed this Swimming Dragon Phantom Sword to him.
Qiao Ganlin's strength was already extremely powerful. Now that he had the mid-tier Middle-level divine artifact, the Swimming Dragon Phantom Sword, in his hand, there were only a handful of Lower Gods who could defeat him.
Although the female insect Cao Mei was the weakest of the four insects under the Iron Mountain King, her strength was not to be underestimated!
The most unique ability of the four insects was that they could control countless insects to attack. One of them was enough to fight against an army. They were the trump cards under the Iron Mountain King!
Moreover, the four insects had always been on the move as a group. Since the female insect had appeared here, it meant that the other three insects were not far away!
"Apart from the female insect, there are no other enemies nearby!" Yin Chan released his Spying Eye for five hundred miles and did not discover anyone else.
"For now, there's only the female insect Cao Mei?
She dares to appear here alone? We are really being underestimated! "Qiao Ganlin laughed coldly.
The name of the four insects was indeed terrifying. However, Qiao Ganlin was not someone to be trifled with either. If all four insects had come, he might have been a little wary. However, there was only the female insect now. There was nothing to be afraid of!
Cao Mei controlled hundreds of millions of Gu Insects to get closer. New Gu Insects were constantly added to the swarm, and the swarm continued to grow.
When the swarm was only ten miles away from Qin Feng and the rest, the Gu Insects that covered the sky were a ghastly sight!
"Cao Mei, don't make a mistake!" Qiao Ganlin shouted coldly.
"Yo, yo, yo. Young Master Qiao is so angry. However, no matter how angry you are, you can't burn these little cuties of mine." Cao Mei giggled.
Su Mei's voice was like a poisonous insect. Wen Hai and the rest's bones were about to melt.
"Since you know my identity, you still dare to act recklessly?" Qiao Ganlin snorted.
"Who asked Young Master Qiao to collude with foreign enemies? The murderer who killed hundreds of thousands of my Divine Martial Kingdom's soldiers is right in front of me. I had no choice but to act!" Cao Mei's mouth curled up, and countless Gu Insects poured down.
"Cao Mei, you are courting death!"
Qiao Ganlin was furious. The Swimming Dragon Phantom Sword in his hand shook, and a dragon rushed into the swarm. Instantly, countless Gu Insects were blown into pieces.
However, the number of Gu Insects that Cao Mei controlled was almost endless. Even if this dragon destroyed a million Gu Insects, it was still a drop in the bucket.
"Kekeke, Qiao Ganlin of the Qiao Clan is only so-so!"
Cao Mei pointed her finger, and hundreds of millions of Gu Insects suddenly gathered together. A huge palm pressed down.
"Boom!"
Qiao Ganlin instantly slashed out a hundred sword lights. However, these hundred sword lights merely slowed down the speed of the palm's descent!
"Insect Controlling Art!" Qiao Ganlin's brows raised. This was the Insect Controlling Art of the Four Insects. It was indeed worthy of its reputation.
"Buzz!"
Facing this black palm, Qin Feng simply waved his hand lightly. The God Extinguishing Thunder Flame whizzed out, and this palm formed by hundreds of millions of Gu Insects was instantly burned into ashes!
"You …" Cao Mei was shocked. She blew her flute and prepared to summon more Gu Insects.
"Crack!" However, a divine force instantly pierced through Cao Mei's glabella!
Cao Mei looked at that finger in horror. Just one finger was enough to break through her defense?
"Boom!"
Qin Feng grabbed with his hand, and the God Extinguishing Thunder Flame instantly pierced through Cao Mei's body. In the blink of an eye, Cao Mei's body was turned into ashes!
"Go!"
Qin Feng snorted. Since their whereabouts had been exposed, their previous plan had to be abandoned. They had to rush to the Imperial Capital in the shortest time possible!
"Are you crazy? This way, we will be completely exposed!" Wen Hai was shocked!
"Since the Iron Mountain King is deliberately giving me a big gift, it would be rude if I didn't accept it." Qin Feng smiled faintly.
"Crazy, this kid is crazy!" Yin Chan laughed bitterly.
"Follow!"
Qiao Ganlin did not waste any time talking nonsense. Since the female Gu Insect could find them, it meant that others could also find them. It was no longer possible to hide their tracks. Instead of hiding and being surrounded by people, it was better to rush to the Imperial Capital in one breath!
"Crazy, crazy!"
Wen Hai saw that his boss was also crazy with Qin Feng. He could only whine and follow after them.
"Swoosh!"
Suddenly, thunder rumbled in the sky. The three of their gazes landed on the Hao Tian Divine Thunder Hammer in Qin Feng's hand.
"I wonder which unlucky bastard came up!" Qiao Ganlin shook his head helplessly!
