Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne: The Mad Prince

Chapter 495 The Secret Realm: Tense Situation

"Yes! We need to take action as well."

“If we don’t let them prepare in advance, we will be at a great disadvantage.”

The Zhou clan patriarch frowned slightly and nodded.

If the Immortal Vein faction were to seize the initiative, it would not be a good thing for them.

After all, the major powers have too many trump cards. As long as they haven't broken through to the Immortal Emperor realm, there are plenty of ways to eliminate them.

Even the peak Immortal Emperors are no exception.

They also possess many treasures capable of dealing with peak Immortal Emperor level experts.

However, this is a trump card they keep in their hands, and they will absolutely not use it unless absolutely necessary.

Those treasures are becoming increasingly scarce with each use.

"Yes, we definitely need to prepare well."

"We all know that the top powers all have some hidden trump cards."

The Gu Clan Ancestor also agreed with this point.

"Then let's send someone to discuss it! Let them go back and make arrangements, and prepare in advance."

"It would be best to take this message back and tell the people of the Divine Martial Emperor. They have quite a few tricks up their sleeves. I've heard that the Divine Martial Emperor also has a group of terrifying secret guards under his command, all of whom he personally trained."

The Lin clan patriarch also voiced his opinion on this matter.

No matter how much preparation they take, the Qin Dynasty needs to be prepared as well.

His words made everyone else's eyes light up.

They were also aware of Qin Wu's secret guards.

However, the expressions of several people turned very ugly. These people were the patriarch of the dragon clan and several elders.

They remembered the ten pure-blooded dragons who had been assassinated before.

If the Divine Martial Emperor truly had such terrifying secret guards, could it be that his clansmen were killed by him?

After that incident, they searched for the murderer, but without any leads.

This made them very frustrated.

Now, they seem to have a new lead.

However, even if they found out, there was nothing they could do; they could only keep it to themselves.

As for seeking revenge against Qin Wu, it seems that such a grudge can never be avenged.

"Some things are better forgotten. After all, we all know what happened before."

The Phoenix Clan Chief noticed the strange expressions on the faces of the Dragon Clan members and guessed what they were thinking.

They knew about that matter and had heard rumors about it.

However, they did not have anyone investigate the matter, as they were worried that it might really be the work of the Divine Martial Emperor.

Sending people to investigate those who might alarm Emperor Shenwu would only alienate them from him, which would be a losing proposition.

It now appears their guess was correct.

However, she still needed to remind the dragon clan leader to prevent him from doing anything irrational.

After all, the bond between their two clans still existed, and she didn't want to see anything happen to the dragon clan.

"Yes, thanks for reminding me, I understand."

After receiving the rumor, the dragon clan chief understood what it meant.

However, he still wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly afterward.

"Don't investigate that matter anymore. The Qin Dynasty is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

"You've witnessed the terror of the Divine Martial Emperor during your time in the secret realm. Consider that incident a lesson learned; there's no benefit in continuing the investigation."

Seeing the expression on the Dragon Clan Chief's face, the Phoenix Clan Chief reminded him again.

However, although she didn't say it explicitly this time, she did give a very clear reminder.

If the dragons continue to act willfully, then it's none of her business.

"Thank you, I understand."

The dragon clan chief thanked them again.

He also knew that the Phoenix Clan Chief was doing this for their own good.

He also knew that Qin Wu was indeed extremely terrifying now.

This was no longer someone their dragon clan could easily offend, especially since they had no idea what other hidden cards Qin Wu, the Divine Martial Emperor, might have.

"Dragon Clan Chief, do you have any other good ideas?"

Seeing that the Dragon Clan Chief was in a daze, Qin Shizu asked him a question.

The dragon patriarch then came to his senses.

"No, I was just thinking about how to deal with what happens next."

The dragon patriarch smiled, concealing his true thoughts.

"Since the Dragon Clan Chief has no other objections, let's send people back together to make arrangements in advance."

"To avoid being put in a passive position."

Qin Shizu did not expose the Dragon Clan Chief's cover-up.

"it is good."

Everyone nodded.

That very day, they dispatched men to head towards the second pass.

We absolutely cannot let the Immortal Vein faction gain the upper hand.

Hundreds of years later.

Representatives from various factions returned to the second level and brought the news back.

The First Commander also received the news.

He immediately informed the secret guards.

After receiving the news, the secret guards were determined not to let those forces get away with it.

The secret guards who came this time were all elites; assassination was their livelihood.

If they take action, someone will be in trouble.

Soon, the group of people from the Immortal Vein began to be assassinated.

Of course, many people also died mysteriously.

This made everyone start to feel uneasy.

Meanwhile, Qin Wu, after hundreds of years, finally re-comprehended his previous understanding of the Laws of the Emperor.

Furthermore, they have become even more adept at applying the laws of the Emperor.

During this period, he finally refined one-tenth of it and obtained the inheritance of a supreme treasure.

This is an application of the Emperor's Law, which gave Qin Wu a new understanding of how to apply the Emperor's Law.

This made Qin Wu even more eager to completely refine the Chaos Imperial Palace.

However, the further you go, the more difficult it becomes to refine.

Meanwhile, other forces are constantly testing what methods can be used to break the seal.

Of course, many people also want to try to comprehend the Emperor's Law. If they can, they might be able to enter the seal and compete for the supreme treasure.

There are quite a few people who have this kind of thought.

But if the laws of the Emperor were something that anyone could comprehend, how could they possibly exist over countless years?

Only Qin Wu comprehended the Emperor's Law; no one else had even seen it, let alone comprehended it.

For hundreds of years, they couldn't even get close to the threshold.

Time passed little by little, and tens of thousands of years went by in this way.

Qin Wu, on the other hand, had only refined less than 5% of it.

Qin Wu was unaware of the machinations of various forces during his seclusion while he was refining the supreme treasure.

However, the entire secret realm was sealed off just as Qin Wu began refining the treasure.

All the plans of the various factions to spread the news have failed.

This has caused concern among all factions, especially since assassins are constantly lurking in the shadows, attempting to kill them.

As more and more people perished, the situation in the entire secret realm became increasingly tense.

No faction dared to act rashly, and even treasure hunting was no longer a solo endeavor, for fear of being assassinated without warning.

It can be said that some people are happy while others are sad.
