From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Chapter 124 The Emperor

Bian Jing, Capital of the Quan Dynasty.

In the center of the capital stood the imperial palace.

Its walls were at least twenty meters tall and painted red.

Rumors had it that the Emperor, Quan Shi, had done so to please his concubine, Li Fei.

Inside the concubine's room, Tan Kun took out a small box.

He opened it, and inside was a red pill.

"This will help you nurse your body, and you can expect a son for the Emperor soon."

Li Fei, the Emperor's concubine, sat across the room behind a silk veil.

She was in her twenties, with long black hair and big round eyes.

Her well-curved body wasn't something you'd expect with her demure looks.

"Bring the box over." Li Fei clapped, and the eunuch beside her bowed and brought it over.

She picked up the pill, and there was a small piece of paper note underneath it.

Li Fei looked left and right, and the eunuchs bowed and exited the silk veil.

Hurriedly, she looked at what was written on it.

After that, she quickly burned the piece of paper with one of the candles lit beside her.

"Thank you, Tan Kun. I will reward you for your help when I bear a prince for His Majesty. You may leave now."

"Yes, Concubine. May the Emperor live a long life," Tan Kun said and left the concubine's room.

He had delivered the message for the Dark Envoy.

And the rest would be up to the Concubine and the Dark Lotus Sect.

If they succeeded, he could then become the sect leader of the Qing Feng Sect.

There was a price to pay, but Tan Kun thought it would be well worth it.

...

Nightfall.

The Emperor, Quan Shi, came over to meet the concubine as usual.

They were cuddling on the bed when the concubine suddenly took a deep sigh.

"Who made you angry? Tell me, and I'll take his life," the Emperor said as he fondled Li Fei's voluptuous body.

"The Qing Feng Sect delivered the Birth-Aiding Pill, but…" Li Fei stopped halfway.

"Birth-Aiding Pill? That's good news! When the prince is born, I shall reward the Qing Feng Sect."

"No, Quan Shi, you shouldn't do that," Li Fei called the Emperor by name and looked at him with her big round eyes.

She then continued, "If you reward the Qing Feng Sect, they will get into trouble.

"Especially when their current relationship with me is so close due to their pills.

"Instead, I ask you to reduce their resources and balance them with the other sects.

"It's dangerous for a sect to be so powerful that none other can match them."

The Emperor, Quan Shi, nodded at her suggestion.

He smiled and gave her a kiss.

How caring she was to be able to consider all the repercussions and give him suggestions.

When Li Fei saw him agree to her suggestion, she took out the red pill and swallowed it.

After that, she blushed and pulled the Emperor into her.

...

Next Day.

Imperial Court.

In the grand court, the Emperor sat high up on his throne made of gold and carved with dragons all over it.

The officials lined up in front of him, waiting to report or answer to the Emperor's queries.

"Dear subjects, I have an idea for the late spring hunt," the Emperor said.

"Your Majesty, the constant attacks from the beasts and barbarians are draining our resources. I'm afraid the late spring hunt can't be too lavish," the Left Prime Minister stepped forward and said.

This annoyed the Emperor, as the Left Prime Minister was always going against him.

He twitched his nose and said, "Don't worry.

"It's not what you think.

"I want to organize a tournament between all the sects.

"The best-performing ones shall have more resources allocated to them for the year.

"Some of the sects have been far too important. It's time for us to balance them out."

The Left Prime Minister was surprised when he heard this.

The Emperor had grown up.

He knew which sect the Emperor was referring to.

And he had indeed submitted papers for the Emperor to do something about it earlier.

The concubine was getting too close to the Emperor.

With what the Emperor had suggested, it was comforting for the Left Prime Minister to know.

"As you wish, Your Majesty. But how would you balance them out?" the Left Prime Minister asked.

"Well, as for this…" the Emperor said with a smirk.

...

Qing Feng Sect.

Lin Fan prepared all the things he required and put them into his toad statue.

Blood and Qi restoration pills, dried rations, and even tools.

He was always about being prepared for the worst.

When he was done, he took out the pill from the black bottle Hun Yen Kun gave him.

He swallowed it, and immediately he felt as if his dantian froze.

All the items wouldn't be accessible to him until he took the pill from the white bottle.

So, Lin Fan had to make sure he didn't lose it.

Using his fist, he tried and punched the tree trunk in front of him.

Thud.

Nothing much happened to the tree trunk.

If it were Lin Fan in his normal state, the tree trunk would've been destroyed to smithereens.

The good thing about his Physique Cultivation was that his hand wasn't hurt.

His skin was as hard as before.

Not to mention, the Beast Abilities physique level also helped.

Boom!

He leaped, and he was still able to do so, as his Beast Abilities used his energy.

Perfect for him to try and stay alive.

Finally, it was time for him to make a move.

He met Hun Yen Kun and Ho Ming at the long stairs leading to the entrance.

And this time, Hun Yen Kun also had a skin mask for himself.

They put the skin masks on, and their appearances immediately changed.

Hun Yen Kun turned into a man with an unkempt mustache.

Ho Ming looked like a gangster who lived on the streets.

As for Lin Fan, he conjured up the image of an ordinary-looking man, and he turned into someone easily forgotten.

"I will ask you for the last time. You can still back out now. I can't guarantee your safety with all our Qi restrained," Hun Yen Kun, for once, turned serious and asked Lin Fan and Ho Ming.

But Lin Fan and Ho Ming were determined. They looked at him with confidence and said, "We know the consequences. Let's just begin."
