Chapter 317: Not a Benevolent Sovereign 👑

Published: November 30, -0001

The citizens, although they had never been to the Qin Chen residence, showed no decrease in their attention to it.

Every moment, news was being spread, and almost everyone in the royal capital was focused on the events occurring at the Qin Chen residence.

After all, this matter was of great significance, related to the dignity of the entire Da Qi Nation, stirring the hearts of every citizen.

However, the discussions fell into Qin Batian's ears like thunder.

"What, what did you say? Who killed my grandson Qin Feng, and wants to kill my grandson Qin Chen?"

A roar as loud as thunder suddenly erupted, shaking the patrons of the tavern, leaving them dizzy and on the verge of fainting.

Then, they saw a tall and robust figure appear within the tavern. Just standing there caused the light in the tavern to dim involuntarily, as if all the brilliance was being absorbed.

"You, you are..."

Lifting their heads, the faces of many middle-aged and elderly martial artists in the tavern turned pale with fright.

"It’s Old Master Qin Batian!"

Finally, someone exclaimed in shock after swallowing hard.

At that moment, the entire tavern fell into a deathly silence.

"Speak! What you just said, what is going on? Who wants to kill my Qin Batian's grandson?"

A thunderous roar rang out as Qin Batian walked up to a middle-aged martial artist and lifted him up by his collar.

That middle-aged man was not weak either, at the peak of Earth Level late stage.

But in front of Qin Batian, he seemed like a chick, unable to move at all.

"Old Master, it’s the experts from the Ghost Immortal Sect. Their leader, Nian Shuo, has brought a group of experts to the royal capital, wanting to kill your Qin family's Qin Feng and Qin Chen. Now that Qin Feng has already been killed, as for Qin Chen, the situation is still unclear."

The middle-aged man's friend hurriedly explained from the side.

"What? Feng'er is dead?"

"Nian Shuo from the Ghost Immortal Sect, what in the world is going on?"

A low growl escaped Qin Batian as he suppressed his fury, asking in a deep voice.

Though he could still maintain his rationality, the anger in his brow was like a volcano on the verge of eruption.

The man did not dare to delay and hurriedly recounted the entire story.

"Damn Ghost Immortal Sect, you dare!"

Boom!

The tavern's door shattered as Qin Batian's figure swayed and he landed in front of Feilin Xue Tong at the entrance, delivering a powerful kick to the horse's belly. Feilin Xue Tong instantly let out a long neigh, and the horse dashed out like a bolt of lightning.

The tavern fell into a deathly silence, then exploded into chaos.

"How did Old Master Qin Batian come back?"

"As the commander of the three armies, he must have received the emperor's summons to return to the capital."

"It's over, it’s over. I heard that Old Master Qin Batian is very protective of his own. If he rushes over, there’s bound to be a death struggle with the Ghost Immortal Sect, it’s practically seeking death."

"And I don’t know how Qin Chen is doing. I just heard that Qin Chen is a fourth-level formation master, using formations to hold off the Ghost Immortal Sect's attacks. However, the Ghost Immortal Sect also has a formation master. Once the formation is broken, it will be difficult to escape death."

"Will Old Master Qin Batian make it in time?"

The crowd gasped, seeming to be in a state of panic.

The formation at the Qin Chen residence was indeed on the verge of collapse.

Under the joint attack of the Ghost Immortal Sect’s formation master Zong Luo and Nian Shuo, the formation was swaying precariously.

Inside the formation, Qin Chen had not expected that the Ghost Immortal Sect actually had a formation master, and one at the fourth level at that.

Such a formation master, in the past, he would not have placed any importance on.

It was impossible for them to break the formation he had set up.

But this time was different.

After killing Zuo Dao and Li Yang, upon learning that experts from the Ghost Immortal Sect were coming, Qin Chen had only a brief moment to refine the formation plate.
