#3575 - Steadily suppress Fenghuoshan
The higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain still held the same thoughts as before, inclined to ignore this matter.
However, they had been forced into a corner, making it unrealistic to simply disregard it.
Under these circumstances, they had no choice but to issue an assassination order against Hongmeng Qin Emperor.
After issuing the assassination order, the higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain exchanged glances.
They could see many meanings in the eyes of their colleagues.
They weren't fools.
Seeking trouble with Hongmeng Qin Emperor now would be akin to having water in their brains.
Avoiding being targeted by Hongmeng Qin Emperor in return would already be cause for celebration.
Ultimately, this assassination order against that Qin Emperor was just a superficial gesture.
On one hand, it was to show an attitude of Phoenix Fire Mountain to the outside world.
On the other hand... it was also to convey their meaning to Hongmeng Qin Emperor.
That was, they hoped the other party wouldn't go too far.
When the outside world learned that Phoenix Fire Mountain had issued an assassination order against Hongmeng Qin Emperor, it immediately erupted.
They knew very well what kind of existence Hongmeng Qin Emperor was.
Such an existence being targeted with an assassination order was truly amusing.
"Hahaha, I thought those guys at Phoenix Fire Mountain were all spineless, but it turns out they have a little backbone after all. These guys are really interesting, daring to issue an assassination order against Hongmeng Qin Emperor. Aren't they afraid that Hongmeng Qin Emperor will become enraged and intensify the destruction against them?"
"A dignified Saint-level force being forced to this point by Hongmeng Qin Emperor, I'd say this Hongmeng Qin Emperor is even more terrifying than a Saint-level force. Even though Phoenix Fire Mountain is so uncomfortable, the Quasi-Saint hidden behind them hasn't made a sound. It seems they are extremely afraid of Qin Emperor. I wonder what kind of background this Qin Emperor has."
"Isn't that nonsense? If that Qin Emperor wasn't terrifying enough, why would Phoenix Fire Mountain, as a Saint-level force, be reduced to this state? Isn't it all the work of that Qin Emperor? I'd say these Phoenix Fire Mountain people are crazy, insisting on provoking Hongmeng forces, only to kick a steel plate."
"To be fair, this matter can't be blamed entirely on these Phoenix Fire Mountain guys. It's normal for them to provoke Hongmeng forces. They originally wanted to gain some benefits from Hongmeng forces, preferably using Hongmeng forces as cannon fodder. Who could have imagined that things would develop so strangely."
...
These power leaders were full of anticipation, waiting for the higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain to have a fight to the death with Hongmeng Qin Emperor this time.
Time passed day by day.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
During this half month, Hongmeng Qin Emperor was still living freely and happily in Phoenix Fire Mountain.
He even found several hidden treasure troves.
As for the assassination order issued by the higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain, it was a typical case of much ado about nothing.
Rumor had it that these higher-ups 'accidentally' encountered Hongmeng Qin Emperor several times.
As a result, they acted as if they hadn't seen anything and turned around to leave!
To be precise, they turned around and ran, as if there was some terrifying existence behind them about to eat them!
Through this attitude of Phoenix Fire Mountain, many power leaders understood what was going on.
The last time Hongmeng Qin Emperor came to Phoenix Fire Mountain to cause trouble, he had already made this Saint-level force yield.
He even compensated with a lot of cultivation resources.
This time... he was truly trampling Phoenix Fire Mountain, this Saint-level force, under his feet.
Phoenix Fire Mountain had lost both face and substance.
If other powerful individuals had reduced Phoenix Fire Mountain to such an embarrassing situation, they would inevitably suffer its crazy backlash.
But when it was Hongmeng Qin Emperor, Phoenix Fire Mountain didn't have the courage.
This situation made Qin Yi, who was causing trouble in Phoenix Fire Mountain, feel a little bored.
The Quasi-Saint behind them didn't come out, and the higher-ups couldn't wait to avoid him when they saw him.
Qin Yi was even a little embarrassed...
It was fun to pinch soft persimmons, but it would become somewhat monotonous after a long time.
"They really have no backbone!" Qin Yi thought to himself.
He had already opened fire at close range, and the higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain behaved like this.
Since the two sides were hostile forces, then Qin Yi could only maximize the damage as much as possible!
In this way, in the next ten days, almost one Seven Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal fell every day.
After ten days, Seven Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortals were basically nowhere to be found in Phoenix Fire Mountain, all of them hiding.
As for Da Luo Golden Immortals of other cultivation stages, they also didn't know where they had run off to.
When the many leaders outside saw that Phoenix Fire Mountain had no backbone, they couldn't help but feel a little contempt.
"These Phoenix Fire Mountain guys are usually aloof towards us. Why don't they dare to fight Hongmeng Qin Emperor? I see them being so fierce when dealing with us! All kinds of operations can be imposed on us. When facing this Hongmeng Qin Emperor, they don't have a bit of fierceness. I despise them!"
"Phoenix Fire Mountain is a Saint-level force, so what if they let you despise them? Now these guys have clearly told us that they are just bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If we are not convinced, we can argue with them on this point. Let's see if these Phoenix Fire Mountain guys will launch a heavy blow."
"We are not fools. Although our cultivation is low, we are self-aware. Only someone with the ability of Hongmeng Qin Emperor can oppress a Saint-level force like Phoenix Fire Mountain. If we were to do this, it would definitely be asking for trouble. These Phoenix Fire Mountain guys are worried about not finding an outlet for venting."
"Forget it, I think Phoenix Fire Mountain will be finished sooner or later if it continues to develop according to the current trend! Hongmeng Qin Emperor has been known for his vindictiveness since there were written records. He has never shown mercy to his enemies. To be against him is like a nightmare, making people uneasy!"
...
Qin Yi didn't intend to completely collapse these Phoenix Fire Mountain guys all at once.
There must be a limit to doing things!
He had already completed the initial goal he had set, and even exceeded it somewhat.
The higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain were also approaching their limit of tolerance.
It was better to stop when things were good at this time than to push the other party into a corner.
Even if they didn't want to provoke him, if his side recklessly operated without knowing what was good for them.
The higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain might not jump over the wall in desperation.
He threw all kinds of spoils obtained recently into the system store for recycling.
After a calculation, Qin Yi's current balance of Divine and Demonic Points reached 350 billion points.
Looking at the Divine and Demonic Points he now possessed, Qin Yi's mouth showed a smile.
This was the most Divine and Demonic Points he had obtained since he started cultivating.
As his cultivation and combat power continued to improve, the speed of obtaining cultivation resources also doubled...
Many years ago, it would have been an astronomical figure for Qin Yi to obtain so many cultivation resources.
Now, this amount of Divine and Demonic Points could only be regarded as a relatively rich accumulation for Qin Yi.
If he didn't work hard to search for more cultivation resources.
When he needed these things in the future, he would definitely be stretched.
After Qin Yi returned to the Hongmeng forces, he released the news that he had returned.
Doing so was mainly to give an explanation to the leaders of the forces watching the excitement outside.
To enhance the prestige of the Hongmeng forces!
Let those power leaders understand that he could go to the Saint-level forces to cause trouble at any time.
If he wanted to leave, the Saint-level forces would not dare to stop him in the slightest!
The creatures in the Hongmeng forces were naturally extremely excited about Qin Yi's operation.
"That's why we still need our Hongmeng Qin Emperor. With Qin Emperor, our Hongmeng forces are as solid as a rock. Even if it is a Saint-level force, so what? It is just our back garden. We can go whenever we want, and we can come back whenever we want. I want to see what kind of response these Phoenix Fire Mountain guys will make next."
"Cough cough, correct me. The Saint-level force is just Qin Emperor's back garden, not our back garden. If we want to go, we will definitely die. Except for Qin Emperor who can steadily suppress the Saint-level force to this point, other powerful people definitely can't do it. We must be self-aware."
"Why can't you tell what I mean? This is called a metaphor, do you understand! It is clearly a word to boost morale, but you have to argue with me. Besides, I believe that sooner or later our Hongmeng forces can be promoted to a Saint-level force. Then what can't we do when we want to do it."
"As long as our Hongmeng forces are promoted to a Saint-level force, then the other Saint-level forces will have to be submissive to us in the future, just like other Grade A forces see us now. I believe that sooner or later we can crush the other Saint-level forces and let them know who is the boss."
...
The creatures in the Hongmeng forces were excited.
The higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain were also the same.
This was not because they had any masochistic tendencies.
It was simply because everyone felt at ease after sending away the plague god Qin Yi.
No matter what, Hongmeng Qin Emperor staying in their Phoenix Fire Mountain area for one more day was a threat to them.
After all, this guy came for his life!
Strictly speaking, he wanted cultivation resources and life...
The higher-ups of Phoenix Fire Mountain had survived for so many years, and they would rather lose some of their bottles and cans.
I don't want my life to be in danger!
Everyone wants to live longer, and under this idea, there is no need to confront Hongmeng Qin Emperor head-on.
Now that Hongmeng Qin Emperor had left, their first thing was to count the losses.
When they saw that their losses were so heavy, their hearts, which had just been relaxed, immediately became heavy.
"Damn it, can anyone tell me what's going on! That Hongmeng Qin Emperor actually caused us such serious losses in a short period of time. This number is far more than what we saw on the surface. Damn it! Knowing this, we shouldn't have let that Hongmeng Qin Emperor leave so easily, it's really hateful!"
"Now that Hongmeng Qin Emperor has already left, what's the point of you guys saying these things after the fact? If you had the courage you have now when Hongmeng Qin Emperor hadn't left, how good would it be? Why don't you form a group to go to the area where Hongmeng is located and personally talk to that Qin Emperor."
"You guys are really speechless when chatting. If we had the guts to go to the Hongmeng area to talk to Qin Emperor, we wouldn't let our situation be so passive. After so many years of chaos, what has Phoenix Fire Mountain been reduced to? It is said that other forces are discussing kicking us out of the Saint-level force category."
"Hmph, wanting to kick our Phoenix Fire Mountain out of the Saint-level force category is not something these guys can do. They are not worthy at all! Just because our Phoenix Fire Mountain still has a Quasi-Saint suppression, it will always be a Saint-level force. Besides, other forces just watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal. Let them try to touch the Hongmeng forces!"
...
Hongmeng City Lord's Mansion.
Sophie and Qin Yi looked at each other with wide eyes.
Qin Yi leisurely sipped tea, while Sophie was propping her cheek on one side, wondering what she was thinking.
The two of them maintained this until the moon came out at night.
Sophie said to Qin Yi: "Qin Emperor, aren't you afraid of spreading any scandals if you stay here with me without saying a word?"
Qin Yi said lightly: "Rumors are just rumors after all, and they cannot cause too much impact."
If it were at the beginning, he might have to worry a little.
After all, his initial strength was far inferior to what it is now.
Rumors would really have some impact on him.
