As soon as Qian Jifeng entered the palace, the palace steward Hou Rong came to greet him. He knelt on the ground and said, "Hou Rong greets the king!"

"Get up."

Qian Jifeng said.

"Thank you, Lord!"

Then Hou Rong stood up from the ground.

Qian Jifeng asked, "Where is King Ying?"

Hou Rong replied: "My Lord, the prince took a rest after returning from the battlefield due to his injuries. He is now..."

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded: "Hou Rong, no need to say. Brother, I'm waiting for you in the secret room. Hou Rong, bring him here."

Hearing this voice, Hou Rong immediately replied: "Yes!"

Qian Jifeng looked around and saw that apart from himself and Hou Rong and other servants from the palace, there was no one else here.

"Transmitting sound into secrets is truly the ability of a master!"

Qian Jifeng sighed as he and Hou Rong rushed towards the secret room.

After Qian Jifeng and Hou Rong walked through many twists and turns, they finally came to a large gray wall. Hou Rong lit a torch-like mechanism and turned the handle at its bottom.

Suddenly, the gray wall split open from both sides, revealing an iron gate.

Hou Rong then stood outside the door and signaled Qian Jifeng to let him in alone.

Qian Jifeng didn't say much. He then opened the door and walked in.

After closing the door, he found Ying Wangqian sitting with his back to him.

"Please sit down, my brother."

Qian Ying gestured with his hand.

Qian Jifeng didn't say anything, he just found a bench and sat on it.

"What's the matter with you coming here this time, my brother?"

Qian Jifeng did not answer directly. He asked, "Are you okay?"

Qian Ying was silent for a moment, then said, "Is it interesting to ask these questions now? What does it have to do with you whether I am good or not?"

"Because you are my fifth brother, of course I have to care about you."

The dry machine sealed the road.

“Fifth brother? Hahahahahaha…”

Qian Ying laughed out loud as if he had heard something extremely funny.

Listening to Qian Ying's laughter, Qian Jifeng remained silent and said nothing.

After a long while, Qian Ying stopped and said, "Back then, for the throne, you killed so many brothers who were related to you by blood. Even my father was forced to abdicate by you. Your hands are already stained with blood!"

"Now you're saying that I'm your fifth brother and you care about me. Do you think you can hide your dirty hands by doing these hypocritical things?"

Listening to Qian Ying's curse, Qian Jifeng was silent for a moment, and then he said: "This is the fate of the royal family, brothers killing each other, fathers and sons turning against each other. For the supreme throne, I must do this, and I can only do this. This is the fate of my Mingluo Kingdom, and also the fate of Shenyuan Kingdom and other mortal countries."

"As a member of the royal family, who can stay out of it?"

After saying this, Qian Ying and Qian Jifeng fell silent. The secret room was eerily quiet.

After a long while, Qian Ying asked, "Why don't you kill me?"

"Mingluo Country needs your protection. You have an extremely strong talent. Mingluo Country cannot be without a master. And I know that you have a fatal weakness in your heart. That's why I didn't kill you back then and let you grow to where you are today."

After hearing this, Qian Ying suddenly jumped up. He grabbed Qian Jifeng by the neck, lifted him up, and threatened, "You should regret this, because it will be as easy for me to kill you as to step on an ant."

Feeling the difficulty of breathing, Qian Jifeng's face flushed. He said with difficulty: "You...can...do...this...come...on."

When Qian Ying heard Qian Jifeng's answer, he immediately increased his strength. Seeing Qian Jifeng's increasingly uncomfortable expression, he sighed and released his hand from Qian Jifeng's neck.

"cough cough..."

Feeling the pain in his throat, Qian Jifeng couldn't stop coughing.

After a long while, he touched his throat and said, "This is your weakness, Fifth Brother. You take family affection too seriously, so I can control you everywhere."

"If you were not my brother, I would grind you to dust!"

Qian Ying said bitterly.

"Of course I do."

Qian Jifeng said with a smile.

Recalling what just happened, Qian Jifeng sighed: "You are worthy of being the one who has entered the fourth realm of martial arts and is known as the master of martial arts. With your current strength, killing a martial artist like me who is at the third realm of martial arts, the internal organs realm, is as easy as killing a chicken or a dog!"
