Immortal God of War

Chapter 1226: Chapter 1161: Revealing Lu Xingchen’s True Identity!

But Elder Qin did not project any authority.

He didn’t even take a step closer, intending to ease Qin Feiyang’s wariness.

However.

Qin Feiyang did not relax his vigilance because of this and asked, "This time when you came to see me, are you representing the emperor, or yourself?"

"Myself."

Replied Elder Qin.

Qin Feiyang said, "I don’t recall us having any prior contact?"

"Just because there was none before, doesn’t mean there won’t be any in the future."

Elder Qin smiled faintly and asked, "The person who entered the Imperial Capital with the Deputy Commander last time, that must have been you!"

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Elder Qin said, "Do you remember the question I asked you back then?"

Qin Feiyang said, "Of course I remember, you were inquiring about the State Preceptor."

Elder Qin nodded, "Indeed, I want to know, what do you truly think of the State Preceptor?"

Qin Feiyang remained silent.

Elder Qin said, "There’s no one else here, feel free to speak your mind."

Qin Feiyang said, "Would you believe what I say?"

Elder Qin said, "I would carefully consider it."

Qin Feiyang said, "The State Preceptor is a malignant tumor, his existence only threatens the Great Qin Empire."

A gleam flashed in Elder Qin’s eyes.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Do you know why he painstakingly plans to kill me?"

"Why?"

Elder Qin asked.

"To seize the ancient castle and Blue Snow."

"And each time he comes to kill me, he hides it from the emperor."

"What does this signify? It signifies that he wants to monopolize the ancient castle and Blue Snow."

"Moreover, the new Black Iron Army Commander is the State Preceptor’s confidant."

Qin Feiyang said.

"What?"

Elder Qin’s gaze trembled.

Although Qin Feiyang’s words were somewhat implicit, Elder Qin had already sensed what Qin Feiyang intended to express?

Forming factions for personal gain, harboring malicious intentions!

Qin Feiyang said, "Is there anything else you want to know?"

Elder Qin said, "The matter of Mu Tianyang, can it be true?"

"Absolutely certain."

"Before coming to the Imperial Capital, I even had a hand-to-hand encounter with him."

Qin Feiyang said.

"Encounter?"

Elder Qin frowned.

Bear in mind that Mu Tianyang was the former emperor, with Qin Feiyang’s current strength, if they truly had a clash, how could he have survived?

Qin Feiyang said, "There are too many entanglements between Mu Tianyang and me to elucidate in a short time. I can only tell you his current cultivation is much inferior to before, and if you’re going to eliminate him, now is the time."

"Are you sure?"

Elder Qin asked.

It’s not that he disbelieved Qin Feiyang, but the matter seemed too preposterous.

More than ten thousand years ago, Mu Tianyang had already died at the hands of the former emperor, how could he suddenly reappear?

Qin Feiyang said, "As I said, believe it or not."

Gazing at Qin Feiyang, Elder Qin remained silent for a long time.

He wanted to discern something in Qin Feiyang’s expression?

But in the end, he didn’t discover a trace of fabrication, taking a deep breath, he asked, "So what are you planning next?"

"I’m going to track down Mu Tianyang."

"The Great Qin Empire is the labor of love forged by my ancestors, I absolutely won’t let it be destroyed by someone’s hands!"

Qin Feiyang spoke with a powerful and resonant voice.

This certain someone naturally referred to the current emperor.

Elder Qin looked deeply at Qin Feiyang and sighed, "If this matter is true, then your effort is greatly appreciated."

Qin Feiyang said, "I just want to act with a clear conscience."

"What a good clear conscience!"

"It would have been better if things hadn’t reached this point between you two."

Elder Qin sighed deeply.

Qin Feiyang sternly said, "I’ve already said, he and I are no longer father and son, so in the future, please don’t let me hear such words again."

Elder Qin shook his head with a sigh and laughed, "Alright, I’ll temporarily believe you, go ahead and do what you must."

"But it’s best to bring back concrete evidence, so I can inform His Majesty."

"After all, given the relationship between you now, no matter what you say, His Majesty won’t believe it."

"Of course, if in the end, I find out you’ve deceived me, I will not let you go."

Said Elder Qin.

"Time will prove everything."

Qin Feiyang said calmly.

"It better be so."

Elder Qin nodded, with a wave of his aged hand, a blood-red aura leapt from the top of the head, condensing into a blood-red figure.

This figure, both in form and appearance, was identical to Elder Qin.

"This is an intent of killing from me, capable of exerting my peak power, saving you at a critical moment."

"But remember, this murderous intent can only be used once."

Elder Qin instructed.

Elder Qin was a Pseudo God, with his murderous intent, it was equivalent to a life-saving card.

Such a matter was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for anyone.

However.

Qin Feiyang hesitated.

Although he hadn’t yet experienced the level of a Pseudo God, he had learned something from ancient books before.

Generally, whether it’s an intent of killing or a clone, they are somehow linked to the original.

For instance.

Now that Elder Qin gives him an intent of killing, once he leaves, Elder Qin can track his location through this intent.

In short.

Wherever he goes, Elder Qin can eventually find him.

This means that this killing intent is not only a life-saving card, but also a ticking time bomb ready to end him at any moment.

From his perspective, this might not necessarily be a good thing.

Seemingly noticing Qin Feiyang’s concern, Elder Qin smiled lightly and said, "You sure are cautious, young man. But rest assured, I’ve severed the connection with this murderous intent. In other words, it’s now an independent entity, unrelated to me."

Upon hearing this, Qin Feiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief and accepted the murderous intent with ease.

Whoosh!

The murderous intent transformed into a streak of blood light, darting into Qin Feiyang’s Qi Sea, floating in the center of the Qi Sea.

Elder Qin said: "Let’s go, I will take you to the Spirit Pagoda."

Qin Feiyang said: "No need, I can leave the Imperial Capital myself."

"You can leave?"

This left Elder Qin stunned.

But he didn’t ask further and instructed: "Take care of yourself, and today’s meeting here and what we discussed shall remain our little secret—do not mention it to anyone."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Elder Qin smiled slightly and opened the teleportation portal.

Qin Feiyang’s eyes flashed and he said: "Now that you are helping me without the knowledge of the emperor and the State Preceptor, you must have sensed something!"

"Correct."

"I sense a plot brewing,"

Elder Qin nodded and whispered, then entered the portal without looking back.

"Seems there aren’t only fools in the Imperial Capital."

After Elder Qin left, Qin Feiyang murmured to himself.

But before his words finished, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something. His body shivered, and his eyes sparkled with brilliance.

"Haha..."

"Calling others fools, when in fact, I am the biggest fool!"

Suddenly,

he laughed skyward, his face full of mockery.

This was self-mockery!

No one knows how much time passed before he calmed down, walked to the edge of the cliff, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes. Everything about Mu Tianyang and the Mu Family appeared in his mind.

As time went on little by little.

In the blink of an eye, a whole day passed.

Swoosh!

Qin Feiyang finally opened his eyes, and two beams of sharp light shot out.

"I think this must be the answer."

He murmured softly to himself, stood up, and took out the Image Crystal Stone.

Shortly after.

A man in white clothes manifested.

It was Lu Xingchen!

"Brother Qin, did you want to drink with me?"

Lu Xingchen greeted with a smile.

Qin Feiyang laughed: "Yes, come to the Black Dragon Pool, we won’t leave today until we’re drunk."

He appeared extremely friendly.

Lu Xingchen hesitated and nodded: "Alright, wait for me, I’ll be there soon."

Then the apparition faded away.

Qin Feiyang put away the Image Crystal Stone, stood at the edge of the cliff, hands behind his back, and scanned the mountains below with an astonishing cold glint deep in his eyes.

Time passed second by second!

After roughly dozens of seconds, Lu Xingchen appeared out of nowhere above the Black Dragon Pool, and when he found Qin Feiyang, he landed beside him with a smile.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Lu Xingchen smiled.

"No problem."

Qin Feiyang shook his head but continued looking down at the mountains, not glancing at Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen was momentarily bewildered but didn’t seem to mind, glancing beneath Qin Feiyang’s feet, suspiciously saying: "Weren’t we supposed to get drunk? Why don’t I see any wine?"

Qin Feiyang said: "We’ll drink after taking care of other matters first; there’s no rush."

"What matters?"

Lu Xingchen asked suspiciously.

"Back then, you died in the inner hall, but shortly after, you came back to life. Why is that?"

"This question troubled me for a long, long time."

"I thought only when you decided to tell me would I know the truth."

"But yesterday, when I saw Ren Duxing, I finally had the answer in my heart."

Qin Feiyang said.

"What’s the answer?"

Lu Xingchen asked with a smile.

Their tone and demeanor remained calm, as if discussing a casual matter.

"Possession!"

"You are no longer the real Lu Xingchen."

Qin Feiyang said.

Lu Xingchen’s pupils shrank, curiously asking: "Then tell me, who am I?"

"You once mentioned twice that you used to be a genuine War God."

"A true War God, such an existence far surpasses a Pseudo God, and throughout history, they can be counted on one hand!"

"So, you should be Mu Tianyang!"

Qin Feiyang said.

"Mu Tianyang?"

Lu Xingchen was slightly stunned, puzzled saying: "How could I be him?"

"Yeah, I never thought you would be him."

Qin Feiyang nodded, the cold glint in his eyes suddenly flared.

At the same time,

he abruptly turned, grabbed Lu Xingchen’s neck, and said shaking his head: "Stop acting dumb with me. If you’re not Mu Tianyang, why would Mu Qing come to you? If you aren’t Mu Tianyang, why do you have a space artifact?"

Poof!

After speaking,

he ripped open Lu Xingchen’s clothes, revealing a dark golden Potential Mark on Lu Xingchen’s chest!

The sixth tier of the Potential Mark is dark gold!

This indicates that, like him, Lu Xingchen has unlocked the sixth tier of the Door of Potential!

Upon seeing the Potential Mark, Qin Feiyang’s gaze became even more piercing, asking: "If you’re not Mu Tianyang, how did you unlock the Door of Potential?"

Lu Xingchen silently observed Qin Feiyang.

Suddenly.

He smiled, shaking his head, puzzled asking: "I thought I was flawless, yet how did you ascertain that I am Mu Tianyang?"

"One phrase."

"In the land of ruins, I asked Ren Duxing—not, he should also be called Mu Tianyang now."

"I asked him, since his Divine Bone had been found before his death, why did he still possess Ren Duxing’s body?"

"He told me he wanted to become stronger."

"I don’t know how he can become stronger this way, but his words made me think of you."

"How can someone already buried underground come back to life?"

"The only explanation is possession."

"Of course, based solely on this, I definitely couldn’t conclude you are also Mu Tianyang."

Qin Feiyang shook his head, saying.
