Wang Hong pressed forward, his large hand, like a hawk's talon, reaching for Zhao He as he barked, "Enough talk! Seize him first!"

The other eight Great Commanders surrounding Zhao He also rushed forward at once.

For a moment, Battle Intent surged in the area as the power of their Battle Arts swept in all directions!

Dong Zhengyang and the Lion Headed Hawk wisely withdrew. They were not yet capable of intervening in a battle involving the Ten Great Commanders.

WHOOSH!

Yan Nanshan landed beside Qin Feiyang and said in a deep voice, "I never expected it to be Zhao He!"

Qin Feiyang replied, "I didn't expect it either." But he was very puzzled. If it was Zhao He, why would Third Young Master Cao and Xue Huiyun claim yesterday that Zhao He was with them?

Yan Nanshan also noticed Dong Zhengyang and frowned. "Feiyang, why are you cooperating with him?"

Qin Feiyang replied, "It's fortunate I did. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to trap Zhao He."

Dong Zhengyang's Battle Soul could actually immobilize Zhao He. Such an Innate Divine Ability seemed incredible to him.

Yan Nanshan looked at Dong Zhengyang in surprise. To think he can even trap Zhao He... it seems this prodigy from the Dong Family is truly no simple character.

He turned to Qin Feiyang and smiled. "With nine Great Commanders present, Zhao He can't escape even if he had wings. You can finally relax now!"

"No." Qin Feiyang shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Yan Nanshan was perplexed.

Qin Feiyang said, "Have you forgotten yesterday's unexpected event?"

Reminded by Qin Feiyang, Yan Nanshan suddenly understood. They could have captured Zhao He yesterday, but a mysterious force had suddenly descended and rescued him. That mysterious force would likely appear again today.

Yan Nanshan whispered, "Are you saying Zhao He has accomplices?"

Qin Feiyang said, "I don't know either. But we need to be careful and keep an eye out. Where's the old man?"

Yan Nanshan shook his head. "He only asked the nine Great Commanders to come. I don't know what he's doing now."

Qin Feiyang frowned.

"ARGH..."

At that moment, a cry of agony echoed.

Zhao He, facing the nine Great Commanders, was powerless to fight back. Not only had his Battle Soul been extinguished, but his body was also covered in wounds. Moreover, the mask on his face had shattered, his true features exposed for all to see!

Qin Feiyang said, "Seniors, don't kill him!"

Wang Hong replied, "We know."

The Nine Great Commanders attacked again. Zhao He was at his wit's end.

"Qin Feiyang, don't be so smug! Sooner or later, you'll fall into someone else's hands!" Zhao He roared hysterically, his eyes filled with venomous resentment.

"Then I'll be waiting," Qin Feiyang sneered.

BOOM!

However, before his words faded, the mysterious force indeed appeared once more.

"Who is it?" Wang Hong and the others were furious.

Qin Feiyang and his companions also had a sharp glint in their eyes as they scanned their surroundings. But they didn't spot any suspicious figures within their line of sight.

Zhao He, however, looked relieved.

Just then, an elderly figure shot out from a mountain peak below. It was the Manor Head!

He waved his hand, and an Ultimate power surged forth, slamming into the mysterious force.

BOOM!

Accompanied by a deafening explosion that shook the heavens and earth, the void itself began to twist.

The Manor Head also retreated a few steps, his face paling slightly. But his gaze was like a torch as he scanned the mountain range below and roared, "Who is it? Don't hide like a coward!"

However, there was no response.

Wang Hong and the other Great Commanders seized the opportunity to forcefully capture Zhao He.

Everyone waited for a long while, but the mysterious force did not reappear.

Strange, Qin Feiyang's brows furrowed. Since when did such a powerful expert appear in Spirit State?

WHOOSH!

The Manor Head took a step and landed in front of Qin Feiyang. He sighed, "This person is enigmatic and elusive. Capturing them will likely be extraordinarily difficult."

Actually, he had rushed over the moment he received the transmission. He had simply been lurking in the shadows, unrevealed. His purpose, naturally, was to capture this mysterious individual, but unfortunately, he had still failed.

Qin Feiyang pondered for a moment, then looked up at Zhao He, who was held by Wang Hong, his eyes flashing sharply.

WHOOSH!

He took a step, landing before Zhao He. "Speak. Who is that mysterious person?"

Zhao He replied, "I don't know."

Qin Feiyang chuckled coldly. "He saved you twice. How could you not know? He must be your accomplice!"

"I said I don't know, and I don't." Zhao He stared coldly at Qin Feiyang, his eyes filled with hatred. "I've fallen into your hands today. I admit defeat. Kill me or torture me, do as you please!"

Zhao He doesn't seem to be lying. Qin Feiyang's brows knitted together, completely baffled. Then why would this mysterious person want to save him?

The Manor Head glanced at Qin Feiyang, then looked at Third Young Master Cao and Xue Huiyun. "Do you admit your guilt?"

They both flinched and hurriedly said, "Sir, this has nothing to do with us! Please, Sir, discern the truth!"

The Manor Head said, "Then how do you explain yesterday's situation?"

Third Young Master Cao said, "Your subordinate can't figure it out either. Yesterday, Zhao He was indeed with us, hunting a War Ancestor-level vicious beast."

Xue Huiyun also looked perplexed, but then, as if recalling something, she shook her head. "No, he wasn't with us the whole time."

Everyone looked at her doubtfully.

Xue Huiyun explained, "Initially, Zhao He was indeed with us. But later, we split up to hunt that vicious beast."

"Right, right!" Third Young Master Cao exclaimed. "I remember now, that's what happened. It seems Zhao He used that time to return to State City and commit his crimes."

The Manor Head looked at Zhao He. "Do you have anything else to say?"

Zhao He said, "The victor is king, the loser is branded an outlaw. What more can I say?"

WHOOSH!

Dong Zhengyang landed beside the Manor Head and bowed. "Manor Head, he slaughtered countless members of my Dong Family! I request to kill him with my own hands. Please grant my request!"

"No, he should be handed over to me!" Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed with killing intent. The White-Eyed Wolf had nearly died at this man's hands; this blood debt had to be repaid!

The Manor Head looked at Qin Feiyang and Dong Zhengyang, pondered for a moment, then turned to Wang Hong and ordered, "Take Zhao He to the prison first."

"Manor Head!" Qin Feiyang and Dong Zhengyang exclaimed simultaneously.

The Manor Head said, "Say no more. I will decide."

"Yes!" The two bowed, their eyes filled with unwillingness.

WHOOSH!

Wang Hong opened a portal and escorted Zhao He to the prison. The Manor Head then departed with the other eight Great Commanders.

Yan Nanshan consoled, "Feiyang, since the Manor Head has decided this, he must have his reasons. Don't dwell on it."

"He's the Manor Head. Do I dare to 'dwell on it'?" Qin Feiyang snorted.

Dong Zhengyang sighed deeply and looked at Qin Feiyang. "Our cooperation ends here. If I get a chance to kill you in the future, I definitely won't be polite. Watch yourself."

Qin Feiyang replied, "I'm ready whenever you are."

"Then we'll see." Dong Zhengyang gave a cold laugh, opened a portal, and left.

Yan Nanshan frowned. "Feiyang, did he take a Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill to break through to War Ancestor?"

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Yan Nanshan said angrily, "Are you foolish? He's your enemy! You're nurturing a tiger that will cause you future calamity, don't you understand?"

With Qin Feiyang's talent, it wouldn't take long for him to catch up to Dong Zhengyang. But now, Qin Feiyang had personally helped him reach the War Ancestor stage. Wasn't he playing with fire?

"It doesn't matter," Qin Feiyang said with a faint smile.

Although Dong Zhengyang had reached the War Ancestor stage first, he hadn't opened his Door of Potential. Furthermore, Dong Zhengyang didn't possess a Perfect Battle Art. That was the difference. He was confident he could soon surpass Dong Zhengyang.

Yan Nanshan glared at him helplessly. "Fine, I can't be bothered to argue with you. What's your next step?"

Qin Feiyang said, "Help the White-Eyed Wolf repair his Sea of Consciousness."

Yan Nanshan said, "Then you'll still need to find the Manor Head. I'll head back to the Holy Temple first. Send me a message if you need anything."

"Alright." Qin Feiyang nodded.

After Yan Nanshan left, the Lion Headed Hawk said, "Kid, I also heard about what happened with the Rogue Wolf. I'm free right now anyway, so why don't I go with you?"

Qin Feiyang pondered for a moment, then said, "You should deliver the Potential Elixirs and the Potential Pill to my sister first. If I need your help, I certainly won't hesitate to ask."

"Alright then." The Lion Headed Hawk chuckled, spread its wings, and swiftly vanished over the horizon.

The mysterious person... Qin Feiyang retracted his gaze, swept it over the mountain range below, a cold glint in his eyes, and entered the Ancient Castle.

Fatty immediately said indignantly, "Boss, this is too unfair! Zhao He committed such terrible crimes, why is he only being imprisoned?"

Qin Feiyang asked, "Then tell me, what can we do?"

"Let's go assassinate him and avenge Brother Wolf!" Fatty's eyes glinted with killing intent.

Qin Feiyang sighed. "The old man understands our personalities. He'd guess we might try something like that, so he won't let us succeed."

"What the hell is that old bastard up to?" Fatty glared, his body trembling with anger.

Lu Hong said, "Calm down. The Manor Head must have his reasons for doing this. If it really comes to it, we can ask him directly. I believe he'll tell us."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Fatty looked at Wei Zhongyang. "It's all over. He's of no more use. Shouldn't he be dealt with too?"

"Don't kill me..." Wei Zhongyang's body trembled. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Qin Feiyang, I'm just a cripple now. I pose no threat to you. Please, show some mercy and spare me!"

"Spare you?" Qin Feiyang walked up, kicked Wei Zhongyang away, then stepped firmly on his stomach, sneering, "If I hadn't been prepared, Yiyi and Aunt Xue would have been killed by you. You think you still deserve to live?"

A look of ghastly despair appeared in Wei Zhongyang's eyes; his entire being was engulfed by hopelessness.

Qin Feiyang said, "But don't worry. Considering your cooperation, I'll leave your body intact for a proper burial."

"Sigh!" Wei Zhongyang let out a long sigh, closed his eyes, and said, "Then, get on with it!" Such a death was at least better than having his corpse desecrated.

Qin Feiyang drew out Blue Snow and, with a gentle swipe, slit Wei Zhongyang's throat.

Then, he carried Wei Zhongyang's corpse out of the Ancient Castle, entered the jungle below, and buried Wei Zhongyang. Afterwards, he opened a portal and stepped through.
