Chapter 1198: Chapter 360: Is This the Blood Connection Between Father and Daughter?
He gazed deeply at Zhou Qing, "What’s your plan next?"
Zhou Qing smiled mysteriously, "Soon, you’ll know!"
Next, he planned to head directly to the border.
The matter of the Seventh Prince is the perfect opportunity to refine the Realm.
Although he had already displayed his Overbearing Realm during his previous encounter with Jiang Pojun and others, making it inevitable to be recognized, he no longer cared about such trivial details.
Once he breaks through to the Spirit Severing Realm, with the unique advantage of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown, he will have no rival within the same rank, and even fighting across ranks wouldn’t be difficult.
By then, looking across the entire Holy Martial Dynasty, the only one he might need to fear is that unfathomable Old Emperor.
Seeing that Zhou Qing wasn’t willing to speak further, Mo Tianheng sensibly stopped probing and brought up another important matter: "Recently, the Royal Treasury was robbed, and the method was identical to the theft at the Nangong Family’s inner vault, unnoticed by anyone throughout the entire process."
"And the stolen items aren’t many, just some top-grade spirit stones and a few ancient treasures."
A suitable look of surprise appeared on Zhou Qing’s face, his lips slightly curling up, "Sounds pitiful, it seems the guards of the Royal Treasury indeed need to be strengthened."
Mo Tianheng watched Zhou Qing with a deep gaze, trying to catch a flaw on that calm face.
However, Zhou Qing’s expression remained unchanged, without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes.
After pondering for a moment, Mo Tianheng couldn’t help but lower his voice to remind, "The person dared to kill the Chief Eunuch in broad daylight, clearly provoking the Xuanyuan Family."
"Such a brazen fugitive likely sees everyone as a pawn to be used, you..."
Zhou Qing looked at Mo Tianheng and merely nodded slightly.
"Don’t worry, Elder Mo, I know how to handle it. By the way, could I ask you for something?"
Soon after, watching Zhou Qing’s departing figure, Mo Tianheng opened his mouth, but it only turned into a meaningful sigh.
...
After leaving the Duobao Trading House, Zhou Qing decided to directly use the Teleportation Array at the Hidden Dragon Path to reach the border.
Since he had already found Lu and with Shen Yunzhou to look after, nothing should go wrong.
Rather than informing them and adding to their worries, it was more appropriate to act alone.
He adjusted the silver-patterned mask on his face, and with his azure robe fluttering, swept out of the city.
A day later, after confirming no one was around, Zhou Qing stopped before a space node, took out a jade talisman from his bosom, entirely white and shaped like a dragon.
This jade talisman was only three inches long, its surface flowing with mysterious space patterns, faintly showing a Silver Dragon swimming within the jade.
At his fingertip, spiritual power converged, and he activated the jade talisman without hesitation, throwing it into the void above.
"Crack—"
The crisp sound of shattering echoed, and the jade talisman broke on cue.
In an instant, a silvery-white space fissure unfurled like a flood dragon above, the violent power of space surging out, yet tightly bound by the residual power of the jade talisman.
Watching this, Zhou Qing took a deep breath, a flash of sharp brilliance in his eyes.
This was precisely the "Realm Breaking Jade Talisman" he had specifically requested from Elder Mo before leaving.
Elder Mo was indeed generous, directly giving him ten for emergencies.
After all, with his current cultivation, he still couldn’t tear the void bare-handed.
Time was limited, he quickly retrieved the azure token he had refined and, without any hesitation, leaped, transforming into an azure stream of light and diving into the fissure.
The moment his figure disappeared, the space fissure smoothed over as if an invisible hand had brushed it, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye, leaving only a few strands of silver light slowly dissipating in the air...
