You still came.

Looking at the figure of his back in front of him, Qin Mei had a bitter smile on his face, everything was as his father had said, Qin Shaojie had still rushed over. It was just that the security of his own manor was extremely tight, so much so that even Earth Origin Stage warriors would not be able to appear without a sound without a sound.

It was only now that Qin Mai remembered what his royal father had said at the end. If possible, don't anger Qin Shaojie. Indeed, royal father knew from the start that wanting to kill Qin Shaojie wasn't a simple matter, even if he used his Earth Origin Stage to begin with, he wouldn't necessarily be able to do so. After all, to be able to sneak into the palace and kill the crown prince, he must have been well-prepared.

With regards to this matter with Qin Shaojie, if you don't have enough preparations, don't take any risks. These words were not from the Emperor, but from what Elder Qingyun had said back then. A middle stage Earth Origin Stage practitioner, an existence at the peak of Great Goose King, would have an indescribable fear towards this youth Qin Shaojie, let alone others.

If he killed Qin Shaojie in one hit, it would be fine. But if he was let go, there would be endless trouble in the future.

My purpose for coming here is not to reminisce about old times, you and I have known each other for so long so you shouldn't be so nervous. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't waste my time talking to you. Furthermore, you came out from the palace of the Old Emperor. I believe you already know about Qin Zhu's situation.

You should be grateful to me for helping your royal family take care of someone you wanted to kill but didn't dare to.

With his hands behind his back, Qin Shaojie said indifferently. When he entered the crown prince's residence, he had sensed the fluctuations of several powerful auras within the palace. If there were no surprises, he would have been noticed by the emperor when he entered the crown prince's residence.

But so what? He also wanted to test if the Emperor really dared to make a move on him. Right now, Qin Shaojie did not have the confidence to kill the Emperor under such a heavy siege. Thus, at most, he would once again return to the Imperial Palace.

But when that time comes, he would not be killing the crown prince, but slaughtering the entire palace!

What he could do in his previous life, he didn't mind doing again in this life.

Yes, brother Shaojie, if you have the arrangements, then you won't decline if you have the ability to do so. Currently, his relationship with Qin Shaojie was extremely subtle. No matter what, he was the son of the Emperor, and with the death of the crown prince, he would definitely be in charge of the entire Great Yan Dynasty in the future. Therefore, some things were no longer the same as before.

There's no need to speak any more nonsense. You should know what I'm looking for you for.

Waving his hand, Qin Shaojie did not care about these so-called courteous words at all. Let alone Qin Mai, even Nether Sect could not afford to give him what he wanted.

Regarding the Tiangyou City Qin family, they do have some relationship with my Imperial Family, but that is already an extremely long time ago. Moreover, it was not related by blood. One of the ancestors of the Qin family had done a great service to protect the Qin family, but he didn't want to be rewarded by the Ancestor, so the royal family protected the Qin family in secret. In return, of course, this matter became more and more bizarre the further it went. However, your Qin Clan's ancestor never explained it. This matter has become complicated and confusing.

Qin Mai naturally knew that if Qin Shaojie were to return again, he would definitely ask about this matter, so Qin Mai had specially asked the Emperor. Later on, as his father said, every generation of emperors would entrust this matter to their deceased, in order to protect the Tiangyou City Qin family for five hundred years.

This was what the Ancestor had promised.

If the Tiangyou City's Qin family and the Imperial Qin family were really related, it would mean that Qin Shaojie was of the Ancestor's bloodline. If Qin Shaojie had any thoughts about the position of Emperor, then he would be the biggest competitor for it. Fortunately, it turned out to be a mistake.

However, every single emperor disdained to explain. Presumably, the old ancestor of the Qin family did not talk about it, which was why such a phenomenon happened.

But to be able to protect the Tiangyou City's Qin family for five hundred years, that was already quite good. As long as the Qin family of Tiangyou City was not in danger of annihilation, the royal family would not interfere. They might even reach some secret agreements with the Holy Flame Academy to give them a quota of spots. Perhaps this was the reason why the rumors were even more true.

He frowned slightly, obviously Qin Shaojie did not expect that he would become a dragon in the end, but since that was the case, it made sense. Otherwise, if there really was a close relationship between the two, it would have been impossible for the original Qin Mai to not be able to find his traces, and it would be impossible for Qin Zhu not to know either.

How long was it until five hundred years ago?

Five years, in another five years, the promised time will come to an end. At that time, the existence of our Tiangyou City's Qin family will have nothing to do with our Imperial Family. As for the quota for the, I think that even if there wasn't my imperial clan, the Holy Flame Academy would still not take it back.

Right now, it could be said that Qin Shaojie had completely contributed to the Holy Flame Academy. Others might not be able to see it, but he had long ago discerned Qin Shaojie's position within the Holy Flame Academy from the attitude of the Holy Flame Academy.

To be able to obtain the Holy Flame Academy's favor at such a young age, it had to be said that it was an accident for everyone. However, they knew very well that other than Qin Shaojie, no one else would have any use.

Rumor has it that the Qin family of Tiangyou City was related to the Nether Sect, did this news finally confirm? After lowering his head and speaking, Qin Shaojie also continued to ask. Back then, this news had come from Wen Ya who was in the Exquisite Auction House.

I did, but I'm afraid it was a mistake. However, there were families and sects in Tiangyou City, but not the Qin family, and not the Chen family.

When the Tiangyou City was mentioned, Qin Mai could only smile helplessly. The Four Great Families of Tiangyou City, the Qin Family, the Chen Family, and the Qi Family, these four families seemed insignificant. He did not expect that the Tiangyou City would actually become such a fearsome existence.

The Qin family had produced Qin Shaojie, who had stirred the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Although Qin Shaojie had a terrible relationship with the Qin family, everyone knew that even if they were to die, it would not change the fact that they were related by blood. Once something really happens to the Tiangyou City's Qin family, Qin Shaojie definitely would have to make a move.

Even if they had lost the protection of the imperial family, as long as Qin Shaojie was still alive, the Tiangyou City's Qin family would be safe and sound!

Apart from the Qin family, he didn't expect that the Chen family was also a well-hidden existence. Although the Chen family had yet to announce it to the public, it was clear that they were confident in their source, Qin Mai.

But there were experts within the Tiangyou City, and they were existences on the level of Earth Origin Stage. Even the Imperial Family wouldn't dare to easily ignore this kind of existence. And this expert of Earth Origin Stage was not contacting the Qin family, but the Chen family.

This person had also been living in seclusion in a teahouse not far from the Chen Family. He had appeared in the Tiangyou City sixteen years ago. All these signs indicated that the Chen family, and not the Qin family, was most likely connected to the sect.

As for which sect it was, he wasn't sure. Moreover, the aura he gave off was very orthodox. This sort of orthodoxy was not something that a lone cultivator would have. Only the martial artists in a sect would have this kind of strength.

Do you know his name?

He wasn't sure about the details, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. The royal family didn't want to create such a huge trouble for him. But his surname was Song.

Even the emperor would not have expected such a situation to occur, let alone the Tiangyou City's Qin Mai. But the Emperor said, in the future, no one should investigate the affairs of the Tiangyou City, and the powers in the imperial court should not easily interfere with the Tiangyou City, and it was also for this reason that the Emperor was even more certain that he could not make a move against Qin Shaojie.

There was no other reason. Although very few people knew about the marriage between Qin Shaojie and the Chen family's Chen Yuner, in the end, Qin Tian had told the people of the royal family about it. Furthermore, everyone already knew that the relationship between Qin Shaojie and the Chen family was extremely good. If it was really Qin Shaojie who died in the hands of the imperial family, then the Chen family would not rest until they had a sect to rely on.

At this time, Qin Mai felt that Qin Zhu was confused, the news did not clarify, and he thought that the real problem was with the Qin family, he did not know that not only did they have the wrong target, they even made a move against the main target, and the final result was not beneficial at all.

It was no wonder the Chen Family kept saying that if Chen Yuner was here, the Chen Family would definitely be fine. Adding the last time when Chen Yuner had brought him here, and the contents of the letter, now that he thought about it, perhaps the most important thing that was related to the sect, was Chen Yuner.

It looked like it was time to make another trip to the Chen Clan. After all, the time in Chen Yuner's letter was not much.

No matter what, that was his wife in name. No matter what, he would definitely not let Chen Yuner be forced to do anything without his permission or her free will.

It was impossible for such a thing to happen, whether in his previous life or this life!

What plans do you have for the future, brother Shaojie? Do we continue on our way back to the Holy Flame Academy?

Qin Mai clasped his hands together and asked. No matter what, Qin Shaojie had too many powers involved with the Great Yan Dynasty. Not only the Chen family, but most importantly, the Holy Flame Academy. His existence was the danger of the dynasty.

Don't think that I don't know what you're trying to do. There's no use in having these thoughts on me.

I will leave Great Yan Dynasty eventually, but I will still return in the end. If you do something you shouldn't do, I don't mind completely destroying the entire Great Yan Dynasty. You should know that if I say so, I can do it.

So, don't force me to make a move then! With that, Qin Shaojie also disappeared in front of Qin Mai, leaving Qin Mai, who had a little fear in his eyes, behind!
