Lin Hai's brow had a closed seal, which meant that his father had been sealed with something. His father had conflicts with the Duan family before.

  Not long ago when leaving Yangzhou City, Father Lin Hai told Lin Feng that he went to the Imperial City...

  Lin Feng only felt that his mind was a bit messy, his father and the Duan family had a grudge, but he still went to the Imperial City with courtesy. His intuition told Lin Feng that his father was absolutely not there for sightseeing.

  "Father may be in danger, this time going to the Imperial City, must find father."

  Lin Feng didn't know who his father had offended in the Duan family, nor did he know where this hatred came from. What he could do now was to find his father and ask him clearly what was going on.

  Moreover, Lin Feng suddenly remembered something, his father had never mentioned anything about his mother's affairs to him before, what was the reason behind this?

  "Lin Feng."

  Qingyu saw Lin Feng's abnormality and couldn't help but shout, which made Lin Feng react, suppressing the various doubts in his heart, shaking his head and saying: "I'm fine, Duan Feng, how much longer can we reach the Imperial City."

  "If everything goes smoothly, at this speed, it will take at least five or six days," Duan Feng replied.

  "After a while, I'll drive and let Jingyun take turns with me, so she can rest too. This way, we'll be faster."

  Lin Feng said, and Duan Feng nodded, although he didn't know what Lin Feng meant. But in his heart, he was puzzled, why did Big Brother Lin look a bit abnormal after seeing his Martial Spirit?

  But Lin Feng didn't say it, and Duan Feng wouldn't ask either.

  In fact, just as Duan Feng said, they rushed day and night, and it wasn't until the sixth day that they arrived at the foot of the imperial city.

  Moreover, because they changed roads, they indeed did not encounter any ambushes, perhaps no one knew that the people sitting in these two horse-drawn carriages were Duan Feng and his companions.

  The imperial city is vast and majestic, with its outer walls completely sealed off, leaving only one gate that leads to the main entrance of the imperial city.

  This city gate is extremely wide, cast in bronze, tens of meters high. On the gate, row upon row of iron-armored soldiers holding long spears stand guard.

  Outside the imperial city, there is a long river that surrounds the imperial city, leaving only one wide stone bridge and the city gate opposite each other. Crossing this stone bridge leads to the city gate, from which you can enter the imperial city.

  However, at this moment, the city gate was tightly closed, and only during a few specific hours each day would the city gate be opened to allow people to pass through and enter the imperial city.

  But pedestrians have little opinion on this, because outside the city gate, there is a small town with towering buildings and dense architecture, large enough to accommodate millions of people, which is the famous Outer City of the Imperial City.

  At this time, a horse-drawn carriage arrived at the outer city of the imperial capital. Lin Feng drove the carriage and looked at the shops and wine houses on both sides, bustling with activity. The prosperity of just this outer city was already far superior to that of Yangzhou City.

  "There are so many people here."

  The young lady was not sitting behind the curtain but on the wooden awning of the carriage watching the crowd passing by outside.

  "This is the outer city of the Imperial City, and naturally there are many people." Lin Feng smiled and said, all along the way, he also understood that the reason why people from all over Xueyue Country gathered in the Imperial City was not just to come and admire the grandeur of the Imperial City, but to witness the birth of the Snow Moon Holy Institute.

  To the people, the birth of Snow Moon Holy Institute may be a moment that drives history and even changes Snow Moon Country.

  At this moment, no one could have realized that the young man who was driving a horse carriage and walking in the middle of the road, with hardly anyone casting him a glance, would change the course of history as soon as he stepped into the imperial city. The future of Snow Moon Country would be turned upside down.

  "Qing'er, you must be tired from walking for so many days. Since the main gate of the imperial city hasn't opened yet, let's sit down and have something to eat first."

  Lin Feng looked around and immediately stopped the horse carriage beside a wine shop.

  Duan Feng Jingyun got off the horse carriage, and the four of them walked into the wine building together. The first floor of the wine building was empty, with some potted plants placed in a ring shape in the middle. The upper part of the middle section was also empty. Lifting their heads, they could see many people sitting on the second floor of the wine building, next to the railing, drinking tea and wine.

  Along the wooden staircase, the four of them walked up to the wine loft. Because there were many people, this wine loft was also packed at the moment. However, what made Lin Feng slightly surprised was that although there were many people in the wine loft, it was extremely quiet, without a single disturbance, and occasionally even the elegant sound of an ancient zither could be heard.

  "Qing Xin wine house, indeed lives up to its reputation." Lin Feng said in a low voice, this Qing Xin wine house may not be luxurious, but it's clean and tidy, decorated with great taste, giving people a bright feeling, especially when paired with the quiet atmosphere of wine tasting and the accompaniment of ancient music, it adds a few more points to its elegant atmosphere.

  "Lin Feng big brother, it just so happens there's still one last table available, what a coincidence that we came."

  Duan Feng pointed to a position by the window and said with a smile, "Let's sit down together."

  "What can I get for you?" A person came forward to serve them as soon as they sat down and said with a smile.

  "Bring two jugs of wine and one jug of tea, the best ones. Also bring up a few special dishes at random."

  Lin Feng said casually, having come to this world without properly tasting tea and wine, today there is an opportunity, so satisfy your mouth and see what the taste is.

  "Alright, just wait for a moment."

  The little servant boy responded with a "yes" and walked away smiling.

  Lin Feng sat in his seat, listening to the conversations of the people in the wine house. Although their voices were all very low, a person with Ling Wu's cultivation could still hear them easily. After all, it wasn't anything secret, and the crowd didn't need to whisper to each other.

  Lin Feng found that almost everyone's conversation was centered around one topic, the Snow Moon Holy Institute. Of course, occasionally Lin Feng could also hear a few words about the Crown Prince, Second Prince and Tianyi Academy.

  "Brother Han, you said Yunhai Sect was destroyed. Which of the several major powers will divide up Yunhai Sect's cultivation resources? Among all the powers in Yunhai Sect, who will benefit the most?"

  At this time, a voice suddenly caught Lin Feng's attention, and someone actually mentioned Yun Hai Sect.

  "The Hao Yue Sect and the Yun Hai Sect have been at odds for many years, with their animosity towards each other running deep. The downfall of the Yun Hai Sect is naturally a cause for celebration for the Hao Yue Sect. As for the Ice Snow Mountain Villa and the Wan Shou Men, all of their disciples possess either ice or snow martial souls, while the others possess beast martial souls. The downfall of the Yun Hai Sect will not have a greater impact on them than it does on the Hao Yue Sect. However, the Hao Yue Sect is not the one who should be gloating the most - it is Duan Tian Lang, or rather, the person standing behind him, who are the true winners."

  "Haha, Brother Han is indeed wise and insightful, hitting the nail on the head. This time, the action was personally led by Tian Lang Wang, using the elimination of Yun Hai Sect as a bargaining chip to gain support from other major sects, allowing those sects to permit some excellent disciples to join Xue Yue Holy Institute. Tian Lang Wang not only gained many talented young talents for Xue Yue Holy Institute's foundation but also conveniently eliminated an uncooperative sect. He is truly formidable."

  The two of them were engaged in a lively discussion, their voices rising slightly as they reveled in their own cleverness, with a hint of self-aggrandizement.

  Especially when they heard others stopping to listen to their conversation, the smile in their eyes became even brighter.

  "I don't know what you're talking about." A cold and detached voice suddenly rang out, causing the crowd's eyes to slightly freeze. Only then did three figures slowly emerge from the staircase, led by a woman wearing a noble emerald green silk dress, but holding a black soft whip in her hand, exuding beauty and elegance with a hint of heroic spirit.

  Behind her, two men were quietly following.

  "A narrow-minded person who thinks they have a keen eye for insight, how ridiculous."

  The woman's cold voice sounded again, causing the person who was talking to stiffen slightly, and angrily said: "Young people don't understand, so they shouldn't speak, or they'll be laughed at."

  "Slap in the face."

  The woman coldly said a word, and in an instant, one of the people behind her transformed into a phantom and rushed out. Immediately afterwards, the crowd heard a loud noise, and the man who had just collided with the girl was slapped flying out, with fresh blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

  "It's just the destruction of a Cloud Sea Sect, and what the various sects got was only a division of some skills and martial arts, as well as some surrendering traitors. Although those skills and martial arts are not bad, among the forces that participated in the destruction of the Cloud Sea Sect, who doesn't have similar-level skills and martial arts? As for the surrendering traitors, except for a few people taken away by the Snow Moon Sacred Institute, what's left of them, will they care?"

  The girl's gaze turned to another person, who looked embarrassed but had to admit that the other person was right. Of course, even if he didn't have a reason, he wouldn't dare say it out loud, and just nodded.

  "The major sects support the Snow Moon Holy Temple not because they have gained benefits, but because they are intimidated. If they don't comply, they might become like the Yunhai Sect and suffer destruction. They understand this better than anyone else, so they have no choice. Conveniently, the imperial family's benevolence provided them with an excuse, using the destruction of the Yunhai Sect as a pretext. Of course, they were willing to do it, which is why there was that previous action."

  "However, even if the Yunhai Sect is destroyed, those sects will only be fighting for some time. The Snow Moon Country will eventually unify under one rule. There can only be one ruling power in Snow Moon, and that is the Snow Moon Imperial Family. Any other forces must be subordinate to and serve the Snow Moon Imperial Family."

  Lin Feng sneered inwardly upon hearing the girl's words. Although her words had some reason, they were too biased and completely from the perspective of the Snow Moon Imperial Family, it seemed she was a supporter of the Snow Moon Imperial Family.

  "Since the Snow Moon Imperial Family is so powerful, why bother with such tactics? Can't they just destroy the other sects' forces directly?"

  At this time, a voice rang out, making Lin Feng stunned. The speaker was actually Jing Yun, who apparently had been harboring resentment over the sect's destruction, and her tone carried a hint of defiance.

  The girl slowly turned around, looked at Jingyun with a glance, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. She sneered: "You're right, whoever doesn't obey will be destroyed, just like you now..."

  As soon as she finished speaking, a strong gust of wind whistled by, and the black whip shadow shot out from the girl's hand like a venomous snake, whipping towards Jingyun's cheek with extreme ferocity.

  Lin Feng saw the girl's movements, his pupils contracted, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes. He struck out without saying a word, what an overbearing and rude woman.

  He reached out and grasped the long whip that the girl had swung out, saying coolly, "She just said something casually, are you overreacting a bit?"

  "Some words cannot be spoken, for once they are spoken, a price must be paid, because the person speaking does not have the right to speak."

  The girl coldly looked at Lin Feng and said: "You also don't have the qualification to speak."
