Chapter 194: Chapter 194 Delicate Situation_1
Qin Feiyang took a deep breath, turning to look at Lin Yiyi with a smile on his face.
"Huh?"
The Crown Prince raised his eyebrows.
Qin Feiyang laughed. "Little girl, I’ve kept you waiting."
Lin Yiyi shot to her feet, staring at Qin Feiyang, her cheeks filled with disbelief.
In this world, only one person would ever call her "little girl."
That person was Qin Feiyang!
Seeing Lin Yiyi’s reaction, the Crown Prince’s face hardened, and he yelled, "Jian Haotian, what do you mean by this?"
"Is he trying to elope with the bride?"
The others exchanged glances, their eyes full of shock and suspicion.
"I’ve lived with the name ’Jian Haotian’ for a full year now. Honestly, even I sometimes believe that I am Jian Haotian."
"But..."
Qin Feiyang swept his gaze over the crowd, his eyes filled with determination as he announced word for word, "I am not Jian Haotian, I am Qin Feiyang!"
"Qin Feiyang!"
People rose abruptly, shocked beyond words.
Lin Yiyi’s body trembled uncontrollably, tears flowed freely down her face.
Qin Feiyang looked around and declared firmly, "You heard right. I am the Qin Feiyang that the Royal Family is hunting down, the very same Qin Feiyang who killed Lin Baili!"
As he finished speaking, he took out a pill.
This pill was called the Restoration Pill, capable of restoring one’s true appearance.
Without hesitation, he put it in his mouth.
His build and features began to change rapidly.
Not long after, a familiar face appeared before the world.
He was about 1.8 meters tall, neither fat nor thin, with handsome features.
The sickly pallor of his past was now gone, replaced by resilience.
Yet, beneath that strength, there was a hint of world-weariness that didn’t belong to someone his age.
"It’s really him!"
"Jian Haotian is Qin Feiyang!"
"He is on the wanted list of the Royal Family, yet he dares to come to Yan City?"
"And he even reveals his true identity in front of so many important people?"
"Is he defying the Royal Family?"
The place instantly erupted into an uproar, a cacophony of voices.
The prominent figures in the square were all transfixed by that face, their disbelief off the charts.
Yan Nanshan and the others finally understood.
Why did this young man bow to them earlier and say those words?
It was because he was going to reveal his identity!
In other words, he was ready to make the whole world his enemy!
Lin Han’s expression was particularly grim!
He had stationed all the War Kings of the Lin family in the major cities to find Qin Feiyang.
But who would have thought that this very person was right under his nose!
Moreover, to curry favor with this person, he had even given him five million gold coins!
What an utter joke!
"Haha..."
Ma Cheng suddenly burst into laughter.
His laughter was filled with sarcasm directed at others!
And the object of that sarcasm was undoubtedly the Martial King Palace.
"Yan Nanshan, you never imagined, did you? The person you were so desperately trying to protect is a fugitive wanted by the Royal Family!"
"Thank goodness he left the Elixir King Palace. Otherwise, we would have been tainted with the crime of harboring a fugitive and become the laughingstock of the world."
Elder He and Jia Hei also roared with laughter, their schadenfreude unconcealed!
However, Yan Nanshan and his two companions turned a deaf ear, their eyes firmly on Qin Feiyang.
They finally understood.
It was because of his identity that he had made such an agreement with them.
Now, they truly didn’t know whether they should invite this young man to join the Martial King Palace.
"Hall Master, Elders, I’m sorry!"
Ling Yunfei handed Zhao Shuang’er to Lo Qingzhu, bowed to Yan Nanshan and the other two, and then walked unhesitatingly to Qin Feiyang’s side, standing with him.
At the same time, Fatty and Lu Hong also apologized to Shi Zheng with a bow and brought Lin Chang to stand behind Qin Feiyang.
Qin Feiyang smiled faintly. "Honestly, even if you didn’t come, I wouldn’t blame you."
"Tch, is Master Fatty the kind of person to lack loyalty?"
Fatty rolled his eyes at him.
The faces of Ling Yunfei and Lu Hong also bore bright smiles.
Qin Feiyang was deeply moved.
Ever since he was expelled from the Imperial Capital, he hadn’t trusted anyone but Uncle Yuan.
But gradually, he had the Wolf King by his side.
And three people willing to go through fire and water with him.
What more could he ask for?
With a wave of his hand, the Wolf King appeared out of thin air!
AWOO!
Instantly, it let out a jubilant howl towards the sky.
"Haha..."
"Yan City, Brother Wolf is here to run wild!"
A wild and arrogant laugh resonated in the minds of the powerhouses.
It was the Wolf King provoking them!
At this moment, a wolf and four people stood together, loyal to each other and filled with heroic spirit!
Although their strength was meager, the camaraderie they displayed shamed many onlookers.
The Crown Prince was very pleased. This was exactly what he needed—an excuse to take revenge on these people. Unbelievably, Qin Feiyang had recklessly exposed his own identity. Now, he had a legitimate reason to deal with this group openly and fairly!
With a cold glint in his eyes, he waved his hand and ordered, "Capture them for me!"
The black-armored guards on the perimeter immediately turned, fiercely moving to surround them.
Lin Han took a step forward, his murderous aura palpable, and shouted, "Hold your hands! I want to kill them myself to avenge my son!"
WHOOSH!
He became a blur, shooting towards Qin Feiyang and his companions!
"So eager to kill me?"
"It seems you’re very afraid that I’ll expose all the terrible things your son did in Iron Bull Town!"
Qin Feiyang chuckled coldly.
Lin Han sneered, "Who would believe a word you say?"
"I believe him."
Just then, a calm voice echoed.
Yan Nanshan stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Qin Feiyang and his companions, and turned to face Lin Han.
Lin Han skidded to a halt, shouting angrily, "Lord Yan, Qin Feiyang is a wanted criminal by the Royal Family! Dare you harbor them?"
"Lord Yan, don’t go too far," the Yan King frowned.
Meanwhile, the red-robed old man also walked to Yan King’s side, his imposing aura permeating the air.
"Want a fight? Our Martial King Palace has never feared anyone."
The beautiful woman chuckled. She and Elder Wan simultaneously stepped forward, positioning themselves on either side of Yan Nanshan.
And how could Ma Cheng and his companions miss such a golden opportunity?
"Yan Nanshan, if it were anyone else, we certainly wouldn’t interfere. But Qin Feiyang has committed heinous crimes by killing the innocent. We have no choice but to offend you."
The three stepped forward in unison, joining Yan King’s camp.
Yan Nanshan glanced at the members of the three major powers without a hint of worry. Without turning his head, he said, "Qin Feiyang, as the Hall Master of the Martial King Palace, I formally invite you to join. Are you willing?"
Yan King and the others looked grim.
Apparently, the Martial King Palace was absolutely determined to protect Qin Feiyang and his group today.
Qin Feiyang sighed. "Senior, why must you do this?"
When he had prepared for this confrontation, he hadn’t expected the Martial King Palace to continue sheltering them. But now, the three leaders of the Martial King Palace stood before him. They had even invited him to join at such a critical moment. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t moved. But precisely because of this, he was even more reluctant to involve the Martial King Palace.
The beautiful woman said, "Boy, if you dare go back on your word, I’ll finish you off right now."
"I..."
Qin Feiyang really didn’t know what to say.
Elder Wan guessed Qin Feiyang’s concerns and said proudly, "Don’t worry about implicating us. While the Martial King Palace doesn’t seek trouble, we’ve never been afraid of it!"
Qin Feiyang clenched his fists and nodded. "Alright, I agree! I’ll join the Martial King Palace!"
Yan Nanshan sneered, "Did you hear that? Qin Feiyang is now a disciple of the Martial King Palace. As the Hall Master of the Martial King Palace, it is my responsibility and duty to investigate the truth and clear his name."
"You’re clearly just shielding him!" the red-robed old man said furiously.
BOOM!!!
Several War Emperor auras soared into the sky at that instant.
The Royal Family, the Lin family, and the Elixir King Palace—it was clear they were determined to capture them by force!
The atmosphere at the scene grew extremely tense!
"I can testify for Qin Feiyang. Everything that happened in Iron Bull Town was Lin Baili’s fault!"
"If it were me, I would have killed Lin Baili too!"
At that moment, carrying Zhao Shuang’er, Lo Qingzhu slowly walked into the square.
The Crown Prince frowned. "Qingzhu, this matter has nothing to do with you. Retreat quickly."
Lo Qingzhu glanced at him and said calmly, "Actually, the reason I came to Yan City is precisely to testify for Qin Feiyang."
"Why?" The Crown Prince demanded furiously. "What benefits did he give you?"
"When I first met Qin Feiyang, he wasn’t even an Alchemist. What benefits could I possibly get?"
"I just can’t stand certain people who, backed by the Royal Family, abuse their power and act high and mighty."
"What’s even more intolerable is that the Royal Family doesn’t distinguish right from wrong or investigate the truth, simply listening to one side of the story before issuing a wanted order for Qin Feiyang," Lo Qingzhu stated calmly.
Upon reaching Qin Feiyang’s side, she handed Zhao Shuang’er to Ling Yunfei, then turned to face Yan King and the others without a trace of fear.
Killing intent immediately glinted in the eyes of Yan King and the others!
"What’s wrong?"
"Are you thinking of harming my daughter?"
Jiang Zhengyi landed beside Lo Qingzhu, staring coldly at Yan King and the others.
Chief Li also joined them.
The situation was becoming quite delicate.
Qin Feiyang had never imagined that, in the end, so many people would stand by his side.
He stepped forward from the group, looked at the Yan King, and said, "I don’t regret killing Lin Baili, because he deserved to die!"
"Back then, I was just an unknown kid in Iron Bull Town."
"Simply because I was on good terms with Lin Yiyi, and he feared I might hinder her marriage into the Royal Family, Lin Baili framed me from behind and repeatedly tried to have me killed."
"At that time, I never imagined things would reach this stage."
"Because I always believed that even if the Lin family was unreasonable, the Royal Family should be fair."
"But to my utter surprise, a few days later, the Royal Family’s wanted order was issued."
"I’d like to ask the Yan King, before issuing that wanted order, did you ever ask me a single question?"
"As the Commandery Prince of Yan Province, responsible for millions of lives, is this how you handle matters?"
"The Emperor bestowed royal power upon you not so you could form factions for personal gain or shield the misdeeds of your favorites, but so you would use your sense of justice to maintain peace and alleviate the people’s suffering. Isn’t that so?" Qin Feiyang said calmly.
At these words, the Yan King was rendered speechless.
He couldn’t comprehend how a young lad who grew up in a small town could understand so much. He had even invoked the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire.
Similarly, Yan Nanshan and the others were equally astonished, feeling that this boy was far more mysterious than they had ever imagined!
