“Yin Qianxue... is at the Feng family!” Wang Qiming said bitterly.

Feng family?

Qin Chen’s gaze turned cold; is it the Feng family of the royal city?

“Cheng Shao, I heard that the Feng family is holding a grand wedding today, could it be...?” the black slave suddenly spoke up.

Wang Qiming and the others changed their expressions and showed pain, saying, “Yes, it’s the Feng family that is getting married today. The bride is Yin Qianxue, and the groom is the eldest son of the Feng family, Feng Shaofeng.”

“Yin Qianxue is getting married?” Qin Chen's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. “What on earth happened in the royal city? How could Yin Qianxue marry the eldest son of the Feng family? This is impossible!”

Wang Qiming sighed bitterly, “Cheng Shao, at that time we arrived at the royal city of the Dawei Dynasty under the leadership of Master Xiao Ya and President Dongfang Qing. Originally, Master Xiao Ya was planning to make us formal students of the Imperial Star Academy to avoid being targeted by major forces. However, due to some issues with the Alchemy Pavilion and the Bloodline Sacred Land, coupled with the intervention of the third prince of the Dawei Dynasty, we could only become errand students of the Imperial Star Academy.”

“Errand students, to put it nicely, are students; to put it bluntly, we are just errand workers at the Imperial Star Academy. However, having this identity is better than having none. Although we are merely errand students, it is still enough to prevent the major forces of the Dawei Dynasty from directly targeting us. Nevertheless, despite this, our initial situation was still extremely dire. We often faced bullying in the academy, and we could only endure it.”

Qin Chen fell silent. Earlier at the south gate of the Imperial Star Academy, he had already sensed Wang Qiming and the others' plight from the attitude of those formal students. Life at the Imperial Star Academy must be very difficult.

Wang Qiming continued, “At that time, Feng Shaofeng from the Feng family showed us immense kindness, standing up for us several times, driving away the students who bullied us in the academy, and treating us with courtesy.”

“Humph, the Feng family is one of the top families in the royal city, the most renowned family under the Leng family, and has always looked down on others. How could they show kindness to you disciples from the Five Nations? They must have ulterior motives.”

Upon hearing this, the black slave suddenly sneered.

Wang Qiming looked at the black slave in astonishment and forced a smile, “At that time, we didn’t understand the situation. Looking back now, it indeed seems that way. In fact, we weren’t that naïve; we initially didn’t believe Feng Shaofeng. However, after several encounters, Feng Shaofeng was always polite and even helped us clash with the Liuxian Sect and other forces that had conflicts with us in Gunan. Over time, we ended up believing him.”

“Humph, the Feng family would fall out with the Liuxian Sect?” At this moment, the black slave sneered again. “The Feng family is under the Leng family, one of the three major families, and the Leng family has a good relationship with the Guinyuan Sect, one of the three major sects in the Dynasty’s sect alliance. I have heard that the Liuxian Sect has some connections with the Guinyuan Sect. If these two forces were to fall out, that would be strange!”

Wang Qiming and the others looked at the black slave in amazement. They recognized him as a powerful individual who had previously attempted to attack them in Gunan. They did not know why he was now following Qin Chen, but this person seemed too knowledgeable about the relationships between the major forces in the royal city.

Even Xiao Ya looked at the black slave in surprise. To be honest, her master is an elder at the Alchemy Pavilion in the royal city and has been there for two years, but she also didn’t know the relationship between the Liuxian Sect and the Feng family. Yet this cloaked man, with just a few words, revealed the hidden connections between these two major forces, leaving Xiao Ya in shock.
