Under Lin Zhirui's warning, Yan Canghai finally realized that things were much more serious than he had imagined.
He dared not delay any longer and immediately wrote an urgent secret letter in the most solemn tone.
Then, using the fastest falcon in the manor, they sent the letter out.
Even so, he still felt very uncertain.
He knew all too well the arrogance of royalty.
Especially some of the clan elders, whose arrogance is deeply ingrained.
Therefore, he really couldn't predict how the royal family would react after receiving the letter.
Now his only hope is that his letter will make the elders realize the situation.
The specially bred falcons for delivering messages are extremely fast. Despite Yan Canghai's worries, they arrived in the capital in just one day.
They then landed in a palace.
There were special messengers responsible for receiving letters, who would see the royal family's exclusive expedited stamp on the envelope.
He dared not delay and immediately sent the letter to the palace.
Before long, the letter appeared before an old man wearing a yellow robe with dragon patterns.
"A top-level urgent secret letter from the royal family?"
The old man in the yellow robe showed a hint of surprise when he saw the stamp on the secret letter.
Very few members of the royal family possess such a seal.
Aside from the clan elders, all I know are the princes and dukes.
"Has something urgent happened?"
The old man in the yellow robe opened the letter, and when he saw the salutation at the beginning, he was taken aback.
"Was it written by that rebellious son?"
But as he continued reading, anger gradually appeared on his face.
Upon seeing the end, he became even more enraged and slammed his palm onto the desk in front of him.
"This is outrageous! It's utterly audacious!"
A powerful aura erupted from him, shattering everything around him.
This old man in the yellow robe was also a martial arts expert.
The commotion in the study immediately drew the attention of the guards outside, and many hidden figures appeared around the study.
"It's alright, you may leave!"
After a while, the old man in the yellow robe suppressed his aura, waved his hand, and dismissed everyone.
He picked up the letter again, read it once more, and his expression became uncertain.
Although the things described in the letter enraged him, if they were true, then the matter was serious.
Based on his understanding of that rebellious son, although he was somewhat unruly, he would never dare to joke about such a thing.
After a moment's hesitation, the old man in the yellow robe suppressed his anger, folded the letter, and sealed it.
"Guards, prepare the carriage!"
Half an hour later, the old man in the yellow robe arrived at a huge mansion outside the capital.
An elderly man, now dressed in yellow casual clothes, stepped down from the carriage.
Before arriving at the house, he politely greeted the gatekeeper, who was sitting in a recliner at the entrance, looking drowsy, saying, "Uncle Fu, it's been a long time."
The gatekeeper of the house was also an old man, and he looked much older than the old man in the yellow robe.
His face was wrinkled like an old tree bark, and his hair was sparse.
When the old man saw him, he recognized him for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, revealing a few sparse teeth: "It's Xiao Songzi, you haven't come to see me in so long."
The old man in the yellow robe said apologetically, "I am too busy with state affairs to come here. I hope you will forgive me, Uncle Fu."
"Oh, right, I almost forgot, you're already a 'king'."
In my memory, you were still that little kid with your bare bottom showing.
"You've grown so old in the blink of an eye," the old man said with a sudden realization.
The old man in the yellow robe was speechless for a moment.
He's been king for decades, but every time he comes, the old man still gives the same old story.
However, he dared not voice any objections.
This old man had watched him grow up. If he dared to be disrespectful to him in the slightest, the elders of the clan would probably scold him.
Although he is now the king of Yan, in the eyes of the clan elders, he will always be a member of the Yan family.
Anyone who dares to violate clan rules, even a king, will be punished.
This is why, after reading the letter, he chose to come here directly instead of holding a family meeting.
Given the nature of those clan elders, they were of no use whatsoever except for causing trouble.
After patiently listening to the old man recount his long-ago stories, I realized that...
The old man in the yellow robe then respectfully said, "Uncle Fu, is 'Old Man Tian' at home? I have something to ask to see him."
"You're looking for the master? Perfect timing, he came out of seclusion a couple of days ago. I'll go and inform him for you."
After the old man finished rambling on, he was in a great mood and immediately went inside the house.
Despite his advanced age, he still walks quite fast.
The old man in the yellow robe lowered his hands and waited respectfully.
He knew that with the abilities of "Tian Lao," he must have already sensed his arrival.
But he still dared not show the slightest impatience and waited for the summons.
After a while, the old man came out of the house.
"Alright, Xiao Songzi, the master wants you to go in."
"Thank you, Uncle Fu."
After bowing respectfully, the old man in the yellow robe stepped into the house.
As for the guards behind him, they didn't say a word from beginning to end, but just waited solemnly in place.
As soon as the old man in the yellow robe entered the house, he felt a refreshing coolness that permeated his heart and soul.
Instantly, he felt his body lighten and his mind become much clearer.
My whole body felt much lighter and more energetic.
A look of surprise appeared on his face.
He had been to this house countless times.
Although I had sensed something extraordinary about it before, I had never felt this way before. Just by absorbing its coolness, I felt as if my body had become several years younger.
"Come in."
Just as the old man in the yellow robe was surprised, a gentle voice came from inside.
He couldn't help but follow the sound and walk inside.
Finally, in a quiet and elegant courtyard, a figure was spotted.
When the old man in the yellow robe saw the figure's face clearly, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Heavens..."
"It's me."
The figure nodded slightly, his expression calm.
This only deepened the shock on the old man's face.
Because he saw that "Old Man Tian's" face had become much younger.
The last time he came, "Old Man Tian" looked even older than himself.
But now, with a smooth and rosy complexion and an upright posture, he looks exactly like a middle-aged man.
If it weren't for the fact that her voice still sounded old, her face would have looked quite similar to her original one.
The old man in the yellow robe could hardly believe that the person in front of him was actually "Old Man Tian".
"Don't panic, it's just that my cultivation has recently made a breakthrough, which is why my appearance has changed a little."
"Tian Lao" smiled slightly when he saw the shocked look on the old man in the yellow robe.
The old man in the yellow robe came to his senses and quickly said, "Congratulations, 'Elder Tian,' on breaking through the barrier and entering the unfathomable realm of cultivation!"
At the same time, he felt a surge of excitement.
He naturally knew about the recent breakthrough of "Tian Lao".
However, after breaking through, "Tian Lao" has been in seclusion and has never appeared in front of his clansmen.
So he only learned today that the breakthrough of "Tianlao" actually had the effect of rejuvenating.
"We've only just entered the Foundation Establishment stage; we're far from being considered unfathomable. The path of cultivation is vast and profound; we're all just at the starting point."
Faced with the old man in the yellow robe's flattery, "Old Man Tian" simply waved his hand.
If it were the old him, he might have been quite pleased with himself.
However, since obtaining the Qi Refining Method at the Holy Mountain, he has successfully transformed his innate true Qi into spiritual power.
And relying on more than two hundred years of accumulated knowledge, he successfully entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Only then did "Tian Lao" realize the vastness and boundlessness of the path of cultivation.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shuba is the first site to publish this novel.
He used to be nothing more than a frog in a well.
Of course, "Old Man Tian" would never say these things.
Although the old man in the yellow robe also possessed cultivation, and had reached the perfect stage of acquired cultivation.
However, due to his advanced age and declining health, it was no longer possible for him to reach the Innate Realm.
These principles, even if explained to him, would be useless.
"By the way, Xiao Songzi, you seem worried. What brings you here today?"
"Old Man Tian" changed the subject and started talking about something else.
"It's like this, 'Old Man Tian,' I've come here because there's something very important I need your help to decide."
This matter is of utmost importance; if handled improperly, it could very well affect the fate of our Yan Kingdom!
Upon hearing this, the old man in the yellow robe quickly said.
However, at this moment, he felt much more at ease than before.
Before he came, he knew that "Old Man Tian" had broken through in cultivation, but he did not know that his breakthrough was so miraculous.
It can make even an aging body nearing its end look younger.
I could feel the unfathomable aura emanating from "Old Man Tian" now.
The old man in the yellow robe felt greatly relieved.
With such a pillar of strength in place, how could their Yan Kingdom not be as stable as a mountain?
"Oh, what's so serious?"
"Old Man Tian" was somewhat surprised and asked.
"Here's what happened. Not long ago, I received a secret letter urgently sent by my rebellious son, Canghai..."
The old man in the yellow robe recounted the events and respectfully handed the secret letter to "Old Man Tian".
"Such a thing is true?"
"Tian Lao" was taken aback upon hearing the words of the old man in the yellow robe.
He took the secret letter, opened it, and read it.
His expression quickly turned extremely serious.
He was especially shocked when he saw Yan Canghai's description of the man's extraordinary abilities in the letter.
"He can use magical artifacts to capture people, and his body transforms into a streak of light, soaring straight into the heavens?!"
"Old Man Tian" stared intently at the words on the letter, an incredulous look appearing in his eyes.
The old man in the yellow robe didn't notice the "Heavenly Elder's" expression; instead, he said with some excitement:
“‘Old Man Tian’, that person’s methods seem extraordinary. I was worried about how we would deal with such a formidable enemy.”
But now that you're here, perhaps we can capture this madman directly and rescue Qi'er..."
However, before he could finish speaking, "Old Man Tian" said directly, "Agree to it!"
The old man in the yellow robe paused for a moment as his words were interrupted.
Then his eyes widened: "'Old Man Heaven,' you mean..."
"I said I would agree to the conditions mentioned in the letter!"
"Tian Lao" was still staring at the words on the secret letter: "Whether it's sending Li Weitian's descendants there or ceding the Ten Thousand Mountains, agree to it!"
"No, I'll personally escort Li Weitian's descendants there."
"Old Man Tian, are you going to personally escort that descendant of Li Weitian?"
This time, the old man in the yellow robe was truly shocked and exclaimed in surprise.
"That's right, we must show that person our sincerity."
Otherwise, not only will the Yan Kingdom be in grave danger, but our entire Yan family could also be completely wiped out!
The old man in the yellow robe was completely stunned on the spot.
Looking at the extremely serious expression on "Old Man Tian's" face, which even revealed a hint of panic, one could see that he was quite serious.
He finally realized that what his unfilial son had said in the letter seemed to be much more serious than he had imagined!
After a long while, the old man in the yellow robe barely came to his senses.
He asked cautiously, "'Old Man Tian,' is the person mentioned in the letter really that terrifying, that even you are no match for him?"
"They're more than just scary, they're downright dangerous!"
"Tian Lao" gave a bitter smile: "If what Cang Hai said in the letter is true..."
That person's cultivation and supernatural abilities have reached a level that is difficult to fathom.
If he wanted to, he could probably destroy the entire capital with just a wave of his hand.
With my meager cultivation level, I'd probably be annihilated by a single breath from them.
"hiss!"
Upon hearing this, the old man in the yellow robe gasped in shock.
He finally understood why the rebellious son had repeatedly emphasized in the letter that the clan should never try to oppose that person, otherwise the entire royal family would be plunged into an abyss of no return.
He initially thought that his unfilial son was exaggerating so that he could take credit for him later.
Now it seems that what he said was not an exaggeration at all.
However, after the initial shock, the old man in the yellow robe still felt a sense of absurdity.
Unable to resist, he continued to ask, "Elder Tian, is there really anyone in this world who is so powerful? Even the Holy Lords of Zhongzhou Holy Mountain don't have the supernatural power to destroy a city with a wave of their hand, do they?"
"You don't understand, the world has changed a long time ago."
"Old Man Tian" shook his head and said, "As the rules of heaven and earth evolve, spiritual energy revives, and the immortal path reappears in the mortal world."
If someone breaks through to that unfathomable realm and masters immortal magic and supernatural powers.
Destroying cities and destroying countries were merely matters of a thought to them.
"Old Man Tian" once again focused his gaze on the secret letter in his hand.
His body transformed into a stream of light, ascending to the azure sky.
Now, although he has already entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.
But it still doesn't have the ability to fly.
Based on the information he possessed about the Dao of Immortality.
For those in the Foundation Establishment stage to fly, the only options besides learning the Wind Control Technique are to refine and master the legendary flying artifact.
The one mentioned in the letter transformed his physical body into a stream of light and ascended straight into the heavens.
Such extraordinary abilities were completely beyond his imagination.
That person's realm has probably already surpassed the Foundation Establishment stage, reaching another level that is even more unfathomable.
Such an existence is not something that their small Yan Kingdom can provoke.
Thinking of this, "Old Man Tian" immediately said to the old man in the yellow robe: "Go back now and release that descendant of Li Weitian, and appease him properly."
After I've made my preparations, I'll personally escort them to Cangzhou immediately!
