Chapter 738 Chapter 304: Father, Do You Want to See What an Immortal Is?
Upon hearing Zhao Feng’s words.
Ying Zheng naturally understood.
Zhao Feng had already made some plans in his heart.
“What do you plan to do?”
“Father will cooperate with you.”
“No matter who is involved, I’ll leave it to you to handle,” Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
“What if it’s the Emperor’s son?” Zhao Feng smiled.
As the words fell.
Ying Zheng’s expression changed slightly.
“Fusu wouldn’t do it,” Ying Zheng sighed.
“Fusu indeed wouldn’t, but another one might,” Zhao Feng smiled.
“Hu Hai?”
Ying Zheng was slightly surprised: “Would he dare to make a move against you?”
In Ying Zheng’s opinion, Hu Hai was among his many sons the one without any outstanding qualities, and the reason he elevated him to the position of attending the court was to publicly have him contend with Fusu, thus allowing Zhao Feng to develop without obstacles.
And indeed, it was so.
In the court, supporters of Fusu and Hu Hai fought, while Zhao Feng quickly gained strength and momentum.
“Father.”
“You underestimate the allure of power.”
Zhao Feng smiled.
“If he really does it, spare him,” Ying Zheng sighed.
After all, it’s his own bloodline, and the thought of doing something as cruel as a tiger devouring its own cubs—he really couldn’t bear to do it.
“Alright.” Zhao Feng nodded directly.
“And.”
“Today, go to Zhangtai Palace. I’ve already issued a decree. Your many younger siblings will first pay respects to your mother, then come to see you.”
“Now that you have regained your status, naturally, you should meet your siblings,” Ying Zheng said with a smile.
“I will follow father’s arrangements,” Zhao Feng smiled.
At this moment!
Ying Zheng glanced up and down at Zhao Feng, suddenly jesting: “Boy, is there nothing you want to give me?”
“Give what?” Zhao Feng was taken aback, not reacting immediately.
“You rascal.”
“Your mother has told me all about your background.”
“Do you still dare to act ignorant?”
Seeing Zhao Feng’s expression, Ying Zheng immediately widened his eyes.
“What background?”
Zhao Feng feigned innocence.
“You want to go to guard Baiyue just to wait for Qin’s downfall, so you can take over, isn’t it?”
“Your mother told me.”
“You rascal,” Ying Zheng said, annoyed.
“Hehe.”
“Father.”
“Mainly, none of your other sons can hold the ground, so I have to consider for my mother and them,” Zhao Feng said with a smile.
“And now?”
Ying Zheng asked with exasperation.
“Now it’s different.”
“Since I’ve accepted the Crown Prince’s position, naturally I want to change Qin.”
“Moreover, I also have a gift for you, father,” Zhao Feng said with a smile.
“What gift?” Ying Zheng was intrigued.
He naturally understood it referred to the Martial Arts Skill.
His Efang had already told him that only Zhao Feng’s own family and trusted aides could practice the Martial Arts Skill.
“Before that.”
“Didn’t you say you would show me the so-called immortal texts after unifying the world?”
“Aren’t you going to take them out now?” Zhao Feng asked with a smile.
“Follow me.”
Ying Zheng smiled, leading Zhao Feng towards the inner hall.
Zhao Feng followed without reservation.
Upon entering.
It was still the same map depicting the world’s scenery as before.
Only now, this scenery had all become Qin’s territory.
Upon arriving here.
Ying Zheng took out a box from somewhere and handed it to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng received it, opened it, and inside was a bamboo slip.
“Only one bamboo slip?” Zhao Feng said in surprise.
“Open it and see,” Ying Zheng smiled.
Zhao Feng hesitated not, opened the bamboo slip to take a look.
The contents presented themselves before Zhao Feng’s eyes.
“When King Wu of Zhou founded the country, Immortals descended from Heaven, congratulating the Son of Heaven of the Zhou Dynasty.”
“King Wu of Zhou offered three thousand boys and girls as sacrifices to the Immortals.”
“As time flowed, during King Mu of Zhou’s time, Kunlun Mountain revealed Immortal traces, King Mu of Zhou sought the Immortal, achieving longevity.”
“Six hundred years ago, in Duke Qin’s time, an Immortal appeared in the Xianyang Void, surveying the world, taking a thousand boys and a thousand girls into the Immortal Realm.”
“Five hundred years ago, an Immortal left a prophecy. Penglai Immortal Island, Immortal traces appeared, with Tongtian’s gate on Penglai.”
“During these years, there are rumors across the various countries of boys and girls being taken away by Immortals.”
“Four hundred years ago, Heavenly Immortal Blood descended, blood clouds spanned thousands of miles, recorded by various countries, followed by great calamities and ongoing plagues.”
“Three hundred years ago, Immortal traces disappeared, with no worldly records regarding Immortals, and kings of various countries sought the Immortals.”
…
Zhao Feng gazed intensely.
The bamboo slip recorded many accounts concerning the traces of Immortals since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty.
“Finished reading?”
“What are your thoughts?” Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
“I’m not surprised by the existence of Immortals.”
“But didn’t you notice a pattern with these Immortal traces, father?” Zhao Feng said solemnly.
“What pattern?” Ying Zheng was puzzled.
He really hadn’t discerned any pattern.
“Immortals cannot always arrive in Shenzhou.”
“And three hundred years ago, when Immortal traces completely vanished, do you know the reason?” Zhao Feng asked in return.
“I naturally don’t know this,” Ying Zheng shook his head.
“Three hundred years ago was when the countries of Shenzhou stood in rivalry, not as the Seven Kingdoms later, but there were not as many countries as there were in ancient times either,” Zhao Feng slowly explained.
“What does this have to do with the Immortal traces?” Ying Zheng looked perplexed.
“The less chaos in Shenzhou, the fewer the surviving countries, the stronger the National Fortune.”
“When National Fortune is strong, Qi Fortune in Shenzhou is strong, and the Immortals cannot enter,” Zhao Feng said.
Now.
Through this ancient chronicle, Zhao Feng understood why the so-called Immortals appeared less in Shenzhou as time progressed.
Moreover, in ancient times when Guiguzi first arrived in Shenzhou, he could freely move, but as time passed, he could not even descend the mountain, clearly indicating that Shenzhou’s Qi Fortune greatly suppressed Immortals.
