Chapter 603: Father, I've laid the groundwork for you

Three days may not sound long or short, but for the people of Imperial City, it’s was an torture.

It felt like a giant guillotine was hanging over their heads, and they had no idea whether it would fall or break in two.

Tianlu Plain, the venue for the competition, was ten miles away from the east gate of Imperial City.

This plain was originally the only place to pass in and out of Imperial City from the Eastern Region. In the past, there was an endless stream of pedestrians on the way.

But now there’s not a soul in sight. Instead, there’s a huge pale blue barrier hanging over Tianlu Plain, stretching for more than ten miles.

This was the domain created by the combined effort of the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower and the Divine Guardian!

Otherwise, with this level of battle, the heavens and the earth would surely split apart, turning the plain into a wasteland.

To prevent the aftermath of the battle from affecting ordinary people, the Demon Slaying Department has already set up a blockade outside the city gate to prevent people from taking a step into the danger zone.

Despite this, the city walls were still crowded with people.

This battle was of great importance. If humanity loses the bet, the consequences will be unimaginable. Of course, most people wanted to see it with their own eyes.

Emperor Ming himself arrived in front of the Imperial City and sat on a high platform. In addition to the Crown Prince, Anya and other royal relatives, the members of the Prison Department responsible for guarding him were also present, with their faces covered.

The Divine Marquis Army and the Military War Duke Army were all lined up, with Lie Ying and Liu Tianlu in their battle robes, their expressions solemn.

Battle flags fluttered, and the atmosphere was filled with solemnity and killing intent.

On the city wall, the people watching this scene had a rough idea of what was happening.

If the human race were to lose this battle, the Great War would likely break out immediately.

The Asura Clan had been suppressed in the Eastern Territory for too long, and their desire for battle and bloodshed could no longer be contained.

The soldiers were already in position, ready to face such a situation.

On the other side, Deng Mo and the others from the Demon Slaying Department also had serious expressions on their faces.

The Eastern Territory Commander and the divine generals who had been severely injured by the Asura Clan a few days ago were also present.

They had failed to stop the Asura Clan’s advance and naturally felt guilty. At this moment, they only hoped that someone would step forward and win this bet.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

But having personally fought the Asura Clan, they knew that the chances of winning this battle were slim.

On the high platform, Anya looked around, her gaze also falling on the side of the Demon Slaying Department, but she did not see the familiar figure dressed in black, feeling somewhat confused and disappointed.

Seeing this, the Crown Prince beside her asked curiously, “Anya, are you looking for Brother Qin?”

“We should have guessed earlier. The Asura Clan’s notorious reputation precedes them. Wanting three victories in three battles is just a pipe dream!”

The defeat of the Eastern Domain’s Demon Slaying Department had long planted seeds of fear in their hearts. Now, in the face of a formidable enemy, these seeds began to take root and sprout.

Feelings of unease, fear and despair spread like a plague in the hearts of the people.

At that moment, a resounding song suddenly resounded over the Imperial City:

“Evil spirits and demons, all shall be spat upon!”

“With courage and bravery, we will defeat demons all over the land!”

“That voice... it sounds like Master Qin...” Everyone was stunned, searching for the source of the sound. The void shimmered, and a group of people stepped forward and descended beyond the boundary.

“National Teacher has come out, along with Master Qin’s family. This song is indeed sung by Master Qin!”

“Oh, who is that person dressed in black with a white mask?” The people murmured, their previous fear and unease disturbed by the song.

“In the mortal realm, rivers may flow, but a distinction must be made between purity and impurity. Life and death have always been turbulent in the rivers and lakes”.

The song continued, and the figure in black with a white mask suddenly traversed the air, gradually disappearing into the Boundary.

Emperor Ming suddenly stood up, his eyes shining. “So the National Teacher is sending him into battle.”

At the Nine Bend River, the Divine Guardian showed a relieved expression and flicked his fishing rod.

Deng Mo’s eyes widened, as did those of Qiu Wuhen and the others, who all wore expressions of astonishment as this person bore a striking resemblance to someone they remembered.

“Upholding the righteous path, accomplishing great deeds!” Qin Feng sang loudly.

As the song ended, within the boundary, Tianji Luo and Father Qin were already looking at each other from a distance.

The former’s expression became solemn as he could sense the pressure emanating from the other’s aura.

At that moment, the Martial God Ning Zhan finally remembered and exclaimed, “He is Lord Northern Ghost Head!”

As soon as these words were uttered, it was like a terrifying storm that immediately sent a wave of excitement through the hearts of the crowd.

This black-robed, pale-faced individual turned out to be the legendary Commander Northern Ghost Head, who had been missing for nearly twenty years!

Excited cheers and shouts erupted thunderously.

Qin Feng saw the human race regaining momentum, a smile on his face, and thought to himself, “Father, I’ve laid the groundwork for what needs to be done. I will leave it to you to show off to the rest of the people.”
