"Brother-in-law."
Upon seeing Chen Qingfeng, Fan Xian quickly stepped forward.
"looking for me?"
Chen Qingfeng didn't keep them in suspense and asked directly:
"The news of the declaration of war has already been spread."
"Has there been any reaction from Ku He?"
Upon hearing Chen Qingfeng's question, Fan Xian was taken aback and replied with an embarrassed expression:
"Brother-in-law, who is Ku He?"
"That's the Grand Preceptor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, a grandmaster in all his glory!"
"Our people have no chance of infiltrating Tianyi Sect; they can only guard the outside."
"However... the news must have reached Ku He's ears."
"But he has not yet responded."
Chen Qingfeng frowned slightly.
I figured that Kuhe was the one who could hold her own.
After a slight pause, Fan Xian continued:
"Brother-in-law, you can rest assured."
"The declaration of war has already been sent out."
"As the Grand Preceptor of Northern Qi, Ku He will certainly not back down; it's only a matter of time!"
Chen Qingfeng agreed with Fan Xian's words.
The declaration of war caused a great sensation in the capital city.
Countless people from Northern Qi were filled with righteous indignation towards him, the envoy from Southern Qing.
Everyone was hoping that Ku He would show up and teach him a lesson!
As the guardian deity of Northern Qi, Ku He carries the hopes of countless people in Northern Qi.
Faced with his provocation.
We certainly won't sit idly by!
Just as Chen Qingfeng was pondering, Fan Xian asked curiously:
"Brother-in-law, give me a heads-up."
"If I were to fight Ku He, what are my chances of winning?"
Upon hearing Fan Xian's question, Chen Qingfeng smiled meaningfully:
"Odds of winning?"
You'll find out then.
Seeing that Chen Qingfeng was unwilling to say more, Fan Xian helplessly pursed his lips and changed the subject:
"By the way, Miss Shen has been staying with us at this royal villa these past few days."
"She is the younger sister of Shen Zhong, the commander of the Northern Qi Garrison."
"Brother-in-law, you don't have feelings for her too, do you?"
As he said this, Fan Xian's eyes looked a little strange, and he even raised an eyebrow at Chen Qingfeng.
I had already learned this from Chen Qingfeng.
The young emperor of Northern Qi, Zhan Doudou, was actually a woman.
During their previous spring outing, Chen Qingfeng had already won over the young emperor.
Fan Xian could tell.
Shen Zhong's younger sister, Shen Wan'er, idolizes Chen Qingfeng.
Previously, at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, she took the initiative to approach Chen Qingfeng and serve him wine and dishes.
Knowing Chen Qingfeng as Fan Xian does, Chen Qingfeng would certainly not miss such a beautiful woman offering herself up.
After hearing what Fan Xian said, Chen Qingfeng smiled calmly and asked in return:
Is it possible that she has feelings for me?
After saying this, Chen Qingfeng didn't wait for Fan Xian's reply and turned to leave.
Fan Xian stood there, completely bewildered.
"My brother is really... a womanizer!"
"The little emperor Zhan Doudou has been won over by him."
"Then Shen Wan'er might not be far off either."
"And then there's Haitang Duoduo, the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi; she might fall for her too."
“We’re all in the same industry. If he can do it, why can’t I?”
Thinking about it, Fan Xian sighed helplessly.
……
At this juncture.
Northern Qi Tianyi Dao.
Wolf peaches have arrived again.
He had come to see Ku He earlier.
He recounted to Kuhe what had happened at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
Upon learning that Chen Qingfeng was a Grandmaster and that Haitang Duoduo was still in Chen Qingfeng's hands, Kuhe was also moved.
However, what Wolf Peach didn't expect was...
The teacher did not take any further action.
Upon returning to the capital, Lang Tao learned of Chen Qingfeng's declaration of war.
So he quickly returned to Tianyi Dao.
At this moment, Kuhe remained sitting on that blue stone, her eyes slightly closed.
Wolf Peach approached and bowed deeply to Bitter Lotus:
"teacher."
Ku He slowly opened his eyes and said calmly:
"Why are you back again?"
Wolf Peach didn't hide anything and said directly:
"Teacher, I have just returned to the capital."
"Then I heard Chen Qingfeng issue a declaration of war against you!"
As he spoke, Lang Tao took out a copy of the challenge letter from his bosom and handed it to Ku He.
Ku He took the challenge letter and began to read it; his usually calm eyes suddenly surged with turbulent emotions.
"The Northern Qi State Preceptor, 893, Ku, 964, He Qin, 460!"
"The wind rises from the heavens, and the sword cries beyond the nine heavens."
"Chen Qingfeng of Nanqing has long heard that the National Preceptor of Northern Qi has been practicing Zen meditation and seeking enlightenment for a long time, sitting in seclusion in the deep mountains, claiming to be the will of Heaven."
"However, has Heaven ever shown mercy to the common people?"
"..."
"The Imperial Advisor may bring all his methods."
"I, Chen, will only offer you one sword!"
"I will use this humanity to sever your Heavenly Dao Sect!"
After reading the contents of the challenge, Ku He's face immediately turned ugly.
I didn't expect that.
Chen Qingfeng was so relentlessly pressuring him in order to fight him.
He not only kept his close disciple, Haitang Duoduo, by his side.
Now, they've even openly issued this challenge.
As the Grand Preceptor of the Northern Qi, he was regarded as a guardian deity by all the people of Northern Qi.
If we don't step forward at this time...
This will inevitably cause the people of Northern Qi to lose their faith.
Just as Ku He was pondering, Lang Tao spoke up:
"teacher."
"The news that Chen Qingfeng has challenged you has spread throughout Northern Qi and caused quite a stir."
"Countless Chinese people are indignant and are hoping that you, teacher, can step in and fight against them."
"To establish the prestige of my Northern Qi!"
Upon hearing this, Ku He slowly stood up, his plain robe fluttering in the wind.
He glanced at Wolf Peach and asked:
"Wolf Peach, do you think your master should accept the challenge?"
Upon hearing Ku He's question, Lang Tao paused for a moment, then nodded and said:
"I think the teacher should have intervened."
