Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Mysterious Black Hand

Compulsory mission?

Qin Jun’s mouth twitched, Wasn’t the system hamstringing him?

"Host, do not forget that it was by forcibly summoning a Golden Immortal Realm God and Demon that you were able to escape your predicament. There is cause and effect, and the collection-type compulsory missions cannot be avoided,"

the system said with a laugh in Qin Jun’s mind, though its tone was somewhat gleeful.

Qin Jun felt helpless, but he could not accept being demoted five levels. He had finally climbed to the fourth layer of the Transforming Void Realm, and falling five levels would send him back to the Ascending Mortal Realm. He simply had to vomit blood.

"When does the Heavenly Convention begin?" Qin Jun asked with a frown.

Liu Anxia’s heart leaped with joy. It seemed Qin Jun couldn’t resist the temptation of the Heavenly Convention either. Looking at the whole world, how many could ignore the Heavenly Convention?

"Within two months, it would be best for the Qin Emperor to make his way to the Sacred Dynasty’s Xuan Xing City. The Heavenly Convention will last three months, so the Qin Emperor must make thorough preparations before departing," Liu Anxia reminded kindly, easily engendering goodwill in others.

Qin Jun was not buying his act, sneering, "Since I have agreed to attend the Heavenly Convention, can I keep the reward promised by the Sacred Emperor?"

Liu Anxia was speechless, and so were the five silver-armored soldiers.

How shameless!

"Didn’t you refuse to accept the Sacred Emperor’s reward?" Liu Anxia frowned.

"I only declined the official appointments, but I do not refuse the gifts," Qin Jun said with narrowed eyes and a smile, signaling Nezha and King Huang Feng with his eyes as he spoke.

Nezha and King Huang Feng abruptly rose, unleashing the full intimidation of their Golden Immortal Realm, bearing down on Liu Anxia and his six companions.

Liu Anxia took a step back in shock, his face turning pale.

Qin Jun was committing robbery!

Fury and panic surged within Liu Anxia. In the past, wherever he went, everyone treated him with respect, didn’t they?

Yet, in Qin Jun’s presence, it was so frustrating.

"Enough!" Liu Anxia had to submit, or else he would not live to see another sunrise.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun’s face immediately broke into a smile. Anyway, if he did not comply with the Sacred Emperor, there was bound to be enmity. But for now, he did not want to tear the façade; he would stabilize the foundation of the Great Qin Kingdom first!

Half an hour later.

Liu Anxia and his five subordinates left Guarding Slaughter City with dour expressions.

Once far from Guarding Slaughter City, a silver-armored soldier couldn’t help but ask, "Qin Emperor is so arrogant, even disregarding the Sacred Emperor, why didn’t sir persuade the Sacred Emperor to eliminate him?"

"Hmph, what do you know? He has already agreed to go to the Heavenly Convention!"

Liu Anxia snorted coldly, his voice chilling, "After the Heavenly Convention, the name Qin Emperor will no longer exist."

The five silver-armored soldiers felt a mix of alarm and excitement, realizing that even the Sacred Emperor was not a saint and would use tactics to eliminate an opponent.

...

"Two months’ time."

Qin Jun stood outside the hall, looking up at the blue sky and muttering to himself. He had no choice but to attend the Heavenly Convention, so he had to subjugate the land without an owner within two months before he could leave with ease.

Fortunately, with the current situation, more and more cities were surrendering to him. He estimated that within a month, the land without an owner would fall into his hands.

At that moment, You Fenghuang walked up gracefully.

"Your Majesty, the people who left just now, did they come from the Sacred Dynasty?" You Fenghuang asked curiously.

Before she knew Qin Jun, she had heard of the Sacred Dynasty’s existence. But due to her low status, the Sacred Dynasty was like a godly abode beyond reach, merely a legend.

But now, the Sacred Dynasty did not seem so lofty in her eyes. This change in perspective was something she clearly recognized, and she understood it stemmed from Qin Jun.

"Yes, in two months, I will travel to the Sacred Dynasty," Qin Jun said softly, gazing at the sky, finally about to engage with the supreme ruler of the Southern Domain!

Upon hearing this, You Fenghuang instinctively furrowed her brow. Qin Jun was too conspicuous now; going to the Sacred Dynasty might invite a deadly calamity. She wanted to dissuade him but stopped herself at the last moment, because she knew what she could think of, Qin Jun surely could too, and he wouldn’t head to the Sacred Dynasty without reason.

She wished to accompany Qin Jun, but sadly, her strength was not sufficient, and she would only be a burden.

This thought dampened You Fenghuang’s spirits considerably.

Some time passed without her speaking again, prompting Qin Jun to turn and look at her, noticing her lowered head and downtrodden mood.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Jun asked softly, drawing You Fenghuang into his embrace, his tone gentle and making her feel even more aggrieved.

But You Fenghuang, after all, was not a woman prone to petulance. She collected herself and looking up, said, "I will certainly handle your affairs well for you."

Qin Jun nodded with a smile, acknowledging that You Fenghuang was indeed capable in administration and political matters, certainly the strongest among the women in this respect.

"Tonight, you shall serve me," Qin Jun said in a low voice near You Fenghuang’s ear, his breath on her ear making her body shiver.

The inevitable was bound to come.

You Fenghuang had originally wanted to wait until their wedding day to give herself to him, but the constant campaigning had delayed their plans, and with Daji and Li to accompany him, Qin Jun was in no hurry.

You Fenghuang nodded shyly, understanding that women also anticipate such matters, especially with the man they love.

...

In the dark ravine, the sky appeared like a mere sliver, and here sat the Demon King of Bull, healing in the valley below.

The Samadhi Divine Wind of King Huang Feng was no mere gale. It had struck the Demon King of Bull so hard that his internal organs and meridians were damaged, needing time to recover.

"Damn it! Qin Emperor, I swear I won’t rest until I kill you," the Demon King of Bull cursed through gritted teeth, with his eyes tightly shut.

Being defeated by Qin Jun’s subordinate was a humiliation he couldn’t forget, and what angered him most was that Qin Jun had also lured away his son.

Thinking of King Huang Feng, his heart was filled with a murderous intent.

If not for his knowledge of King Huang Feng’s Samadhi Divine Wind, he would never have been deceived.

After their encounter, he knew the extent of King Huang Feng’s combat power, and next time he vowed to make King Huang Feng suffer!

"Tsk tsk, the Demon Lord Ping Tian, once the terror of the Southern Domain, has fallen to this sorry state!"

Just then, a mocking laugh sounded out, startling the Demon King of Bull, causing him to open his eyes and look around.

The dimly lit valley floor revealed only its central area, with everything around shrouded in darkness, sinister and terrifying.

Footsteps echoed faintly, and the same voice laughed again, "Demon Lord Ping Tian, the Southern Domain is too small for you, why keep fixating on this piece of land?"

The Demon King of Bull frowned deeply. He said angrily, "It’s you again, why do you keep haunting me?"

"I’m fond of you, you’re the only strong soul in the Southern Domain I’ve taken an interest in," a shadow slowly approached the Demon King of Bull.

It seemed he was acquainted with the Demon King of Bull, who closed his eyes again, offering no response.

"Lately, the Western Domain has been rising rapidly, and it has set its sights on the Southern Domain. Even if you conquer the humans of the Southern Domain, you won’t escape the Western Domain’s Buddhism,"

"Is Buddhism from the Western Domain that powerful?"

The Demon King of Bull asked calmly. Despite his recent defeat, he wouldn’t concede; deep down, he still believed himself to be invincible.

"Very powerful, especially that Buddha!"
