Overbearing Immortal Doctor Chapter 1598 - 1697: Such a Heavy Heart

The Huangfu Ancient People are even more detestable. When we married them, they were the most promising, but they also saw us being slaughtered by your clan’s blood for thousands of miles. Just as we were negotiating with your clan, they were the first to annex all our territories, colluding with Tuoba Long’s illegitimate son, killing the Clan Leader and Lei Hong,"

Qi Ziying took a deep breath and continued, "We first offended the Star Heaven Sect, but it allowed us to survive. We have never offended Huangfu, Zhuansun, Duanmu, yet they want to kill them. The Tuoba Clan can only rely on the Star Heaven Sect to preserve its bloodline,"

Hearing Qi Ziyin’s words, many Disciples of the Jade Sea Palace couldn’t help but nod.

Qin Feng’s gaze was evasive, not immediately responding to Qi Ziying, which only made Qi Ziying more nervous. He also feared that Qin Feng might refuse.

Suddenly, Qin Feng said, "Many of the Tuoba Clan’s core members have surrendered. You are the Little Royal Palace of the Jade Sea, but a minor vassal of the Tuoba Clan, loyal to the Tuoba Clan?"

"I don’t care about anyone else. The Tuoba Clan treats me well. I won’t rebel until I die," Qi resolutely said

"Oh," Qin Feng nodded, "No wonder at the beginning, Lei Hongsheng chose to hide most of the Tuoba Clan’s core old members in your place. His trust in you was justified."

After speaking, Qin Feng looked again at Qi Ziyin and asked, "Previously, many royals of the Tuoba Clan were in Jade Sea territory. Are there any now?"

Qi Ziying’s face changed. Now the legitimate Crown Prince of the Tuoba Clan had become a target of assassination, with few survivors. If they were to be killed, they would be finished. But he hesitated only a moment before gritting his teeth and said, "The evil ones have indeed protected three royal young lords. They are arranged in remote mountains and forests within Jade Sea territory. If I don’t speak, no one can find them."

"Indeed," Qin Feng chuckled, "You think, how can I protect the Tuoba Clan?"

Qi Ziyin bowed deeply again and said, "The lands of Tuoba, Rama, Shuo State, and Yan Xiao are all territories of the Star Heaven Sect. Neither the former Huangfu Ancient People nor the current Zhuang Sunxgu and the Duanmu Clan dare to touch them. So now, I want to incorporate the five lands still controlled by the Tuoba Clan into the Star Heaven Sect’s territory. Going forward, the Tuoba Clan will be regarded as a vassal of the Star Heaven Sect."

The eleven lands once controlled by the Tuoba Family were divided by Zhuansunx and Duanmu, leaving only five minor territories. They, like the Jade Sea, were in danger.

Qin Feng frowned and said, "You know, in the eyes of Duanmu and Zhuang Sunxgu, the territory of the Tuoba Sect is like a piece of delicious meat. The Star Heaven Sect taking you in, in their eyes, is equivalent to occupying their territories. Zhuang Sunxgu and Duanmu do not dare to fight the Star Heaven Sect now, but that doesn’t mean they won’t in the future."

Qi Ziyin’s face changed again, knowing full well that protecting the Tuoba Sect would mean antagonizing Duanmu.

"Prince Qin," Qi Ziying said sorrowfully, "I understand your family doesn’t want to get involved in these disputes again, but if you don’t, the Tuoba Family will be doomed. The population of the Tuoba Family is diminishing; there are only five small areas left. The Tuoba Clan has only one place to live; the other four areas are under the control of the Star Heaven Sect. We just want a way out."

"Ah?" Qin Feng raised an eyebrow and said, "You cannot be the leader of such a big matter; can you, the palace master of a small subordinate power?"

Qi Ziyin said, "To be honest, the elders of the Tuoba Clan’s royal family are almost all dead, leaving behind only the weakest and most indecisive young lords. They all listen to me now, only wanting to survive."

"I see," Qin Feng nodded. He felt a bit moved. After all, this was five free regions. Although the medium and large territories were divided by Zhuansunx and Duanmu, the remaining smaller territories still amounted to a considerable area. Who wouldn’t be happy?

"There are too few disciples in the Star Heaven Sect now. It’s hard to even protect you, let alone our own Rama State and Shuo State, which have no defense. So, if you want absolute safety, you can enter the national map. Now that One Volume of Mountains and Rivers has opened, you can enter at any time. I will also arrange for Star Heaven Sect elders to settle you."

Qi Ziying was overjoyed. Qin Feng had agreed.

Miles away, in Huangfu City.

This majestic city remained splendid and awe-inspiring, admired by all. But nearly everyone was aware that not long ago, the Huangfu Ancient People suffered great losses. Among the clan’s three great talents, nine top talents, two were killed on the spot, and 70 places of the Holy Land suffered 30 deaths. One might say half of their lifeblood was lost.

However, the Huangfu Ancient People did not retaliate, because at this moment, they were fighting against Zhuansunx and Duanmu, undoubtedly committing suicide by using eggs against stones.

Yet, Huangfu Hao, who had always prided himself on his emphatic heart, how could he endure?

In the core of Huangfu City, this massive palace hosted only two people. As the leader of the Huangfu Ancient Clan, Huangfu Hao sat at the bottom level of the palace, incredibly respectful. But sitting in the main seat was an elderly man dressed in gray cloth and linen. He seemed commonplace, with blurred eyes like a weathered farmer who blended in seamlessly among crowds. Yet he sat so straight, his blurred eyes savoring the finest tea.

"Master Dragon God, I truly did not wish to ask you to emerge, but this time, you must help me," Huangfu Hao said anxiously,

However, the old man in linen laughed and said, "This tea is truly exquisite, much better than the tea grown in my garden."

Then he poured another cup for Huangfu’s Crowbar and asked, "What do you think of your own product?"

"Dragon God," Huangfu Hao was becoming impatient.

The old man in fine linen clothes waved his hand and said, "It’s the Ninth Layer of the Holy Land. He’s still so impulsive. How can he achieve further heights?"

Huangfu Hao’s voice suddenly grew louder: "For half my life, I have been chased and beaten. How could I not be impatient and angry? Besides, how can the Ninth Layer of the Holy Land go further, God? How can I rely on you for such opportunities?"

The linen-dressed old man shook his head. "I’m very familiar with the Huangfu Ancient People. I promised Lan’er I would protect your clan. Now since you are forced to ask me to help you, I will naturally assist you."

Huangfu Hao was ecstatic, saying, "I’ve received news. The Duanmu and Zhuang Sunxgu clans have secretly gathered large numbers of elite experts to enter the Tuoba Territory. Furthermore, the Tuoba River and Mountain Map is fully open, available for killings at any moment. Therefore, I concluded that Duanmu and Zhuang Sunxgu believe our Huangfu Ancient People lack the strength for hegemony, planning to start from the Star Heaven Sect. In such a case, I’ll put them like a mantis going after the cicada to capture the oriole. Let Duanmu and Zhuansunx first battle with the Star Heaven Sect. When they are nearly finished off, we’ll finish them and then attack. But now our family has lost many top experts..."

The old man in the hemp clothing suddenly raised his hand, interrupting Huangfu Hao, saying, "Don’t tell me your strategies during war. Are you hoping to kill the eighth and ninth layers in the Holy Land? Just tell me. As for the eighth layer of the Holy Land, I will not interfere with those young people."

Huangfu Hao was thrilled. As long as the opponent didn’t have top powers from the eighth and ninth layers of the Holy Land, he had nothing to fear. But soon he implored, "Dragon God Elder, can you assist me on the Seventh Layer of the Holy Land? Now our Huangfu Ancient People..."

"Alright," the old man nodded. He wasn’t too concerned with Huangfu’s excessive demands. He said, "But I can kill the powers of these eight and nine layers one by one. If I kill them simultaneously,
