The five-stage Wuzong and the fourth-grade Bloodline Master and Alchemist were nothing in the eyes of Qin Chen from his previous life. However, he was very clear that if it weren't for the two of them arriving this time, he would not have been able to easily intimidate the other martial artists from Xuanzhou. At the very least, the people from the Blood Demon Cult definitely wouldn’t leave so easily.
“Qin Chen, Young Hero, there is no need for such formalities.”
When the two saw Qin Chen, they didn't act arrogantly but smiled as they spoke.
“What is everyone discussing?” Qin Chen asked curiously, as he had clearly heard many discussions when he approached earlier.
Xiao Zhan smiled bitterly and said, “Young Hero Chen, we are discussing how to best handle the disciples who have received the inheritance from your batch in the future.”
As soon as Xiao Zhan said this, Qin Chen immediately understood his meaning and the distress of the others.
Although many forces from Xuanzhou had temporarily retreated, it didn’t mean they were safe. In fact, once the news spread, the disciples who had received the inheritance would become even less safe.
The Tianwu Continent was a world where the weak were preyed upon by the strong; no one would give up the opportunity to become stronger, even with the deterrence of the Alchemy Pavilion and Bloodline Sacred Land.
Moreover, standing at the level of the Great Wei Dynasty, Xiang Wentian and Mu Lengfeng couldn’t necessarily represent these two major forces.
In fact, this was a concern for Qin Chen as well.
He didn’t put much weight on his own comfort, but he cared deeply about the reassurances from Wang Qiming, You Qianxue, and the others.
Everyone spoke in turns but didn’t have any good ideas.
After all, the crisis that You Qianxue faced was different from Qin Chen’s; he was directly facing threats and killing intent from forces like the Liuxian Sect, while You Qianxue and the others were facing covert attacks from many powerful forces in Xuanzhou.
However, Xiang Wentian and Mu Lengfeng couldn’t always protect them.
What worried the two the most was that once the matter spread throughout the Great Wei Dynasty, various fiends could emerge for their own interests, making it impossible to defend against them.
“Actually, staying in the Five Kingdoms is the least advisable method,” Qin Chen suddenly said.
Everyone nodded; the Five Kingdoms lacked deterrence, and a few people staying there was equivalent to being a meat target.
“But where else can we go?” Wei Tianming asked bitterly.
“In fact, if you want to avoid the covert pursuits of the major forces in Xuanzhou, going to the royal city of the Great Wei Dynasty is the best method,” Mu Lengfeng said solemnly.
The royal city of the Great Wei Dynasty?
Xiang Wentian’s eyes lit up, “Ah, indeed, going to the royal city is a good idea.”
Everyone was stunned, filled with confusion. The ones who wanted to kill You Qianxue and the others for treasure were precisely the martial artists of the Great Wei Dynasty. Wouldn’t going to the royal city give them an opportunity to attack?
Seeing the thoughts of everyone, Mu Lengfeng explained, “The royal city of the Great Wei Dynasty indeed has an abundance of powerful figures, any one of whom could easily kill them, but similarly, as the core area of the Great Wei Dynasty, the royal city is heavily guarded. No one dares to act recklessly in the royal city, not even the Liuxian Sect.”
“So going to the royal city is actually safer than other places.”
“Moreover, within the royal city of the Great Wei Dynasty, the forces are complex, but it has the Imperial Star Academy established by the royal family of the Great Wei Dynasty, as well as other powerful forces. With your talents, as long as you can join a force like the Imperial Star Academy, those forces in Xuanzhou wouldn’t dare to take action against you.”
The Imperial Star Academy?
Xiao Zhan and the others were puzzled.
“That’s right.” Mu Lengfeng nodded, “The Imperial Star Academy is a royal academy established by the royal family of the Great Wei Dynasty, gathering the top talents of the Great Wei Dynasty. It can be said to be a cradle for the talents and strong figures of the dynasty. Once you join, you can receive protection from the Great Wei Dynasty. As long as you don’t leave the academy or the royal city, those forces in Xuanzhou wouldn’t dare to touch you.”
