C234 Stopped?
Stopped?
A trace of coldness flashed across Qin Zheng's eyes. How dare a mere Battle King call him brother? This was extremely rude! If it wasn't for the Hundred Herb Sect, Ho Soong wouldn't even be able to walk out of the palace today.
"Lin Tian."
"This servant is here."
" Go and summon Dragon Slaying Marquis into the Palace. "
"Yes."
Lin Tian glanced at Ho Soong, then lowered his head and left the main hall.
...
At the same time, the news that the Hundred Herb Sect wanted to ban Ning Qi had been spread to the public. Even the people in the city knew about it. They were discussing this matter, gloating and worrying about it.
"The Hundred Herb Sect is going to ban Ning Qi?"
In Hundred Herb Hall, Lvh Liu was listening to Aunt Mei's report with a shocked expression on her face.
"Yes, it is absolutely true. Ho Soong is currently in the Imperial Palace."
Aunt Mei nodded.
"Quickly let my father see what is going on."
Lvh Liu said worriedly.
She had a very pleasant cooperation with Ning Qi, but her Hundred Herb Hall could only depend on the Hundred Herb Sect to survive. If the Hundred Herb Sect really wanted to ban Ning Qi, there was nothing Lvh Liu could do about it.
...
"Chief, today, hundreds of local gangsters are spreading rumors in the city. They say that Ning Qi is going to be banned by the Hundred Herb Sect. I have checked and this news might be true."
Huangfu Fei stood next to Huangfu Zhengxiao and bowed.
There was an uncontrollable joy on his face.
Huangfu Zhengxiao raised his eyebrows. " Oh? Is that true?"
"It's highly likely."
Huangfu Fei nodded.
"Let me take a look at the palace."
Huangfu Zhengxiao threw down the brush in his hand and stood up with a smile.
In front of him, there was a painting with a dragon drawn on it. At this moment, only half of the painting was drawn. There were dragon horns and dragon heads, but the dragon body was not covered in ink.
...
"Little sister! Ning Qi is finished. He has even offended the Hundred Herb Sect! "
When Nangong Qixing heard the news, he immediately went to inform Nangong Yuer.
Nangong Yuer was eating with Ning Hongtian and Ning Yan. When she heard this, she immediately put down her chopsticks and asked suspiciously, "Really? How did that bastard offend the Hundred Herb Sect? Isn't his relationship with Lvh Liu very good?"
Ning Hongtian also frowned and said," Nangong Qixing, you can eat randomly, but you can't speak carelessly. "
"Uncle, you didn't get cheated, did you?"
Ning Yan was also very suspicious.
Nangong Qixing looked around and said in a low voice, "I am almost certain that the Hundred Herb Sect's Alchemist Grandmaster, Ho Soong, who has a grudge with Ning Qi, is currently in the Imperial Palace. I suspect that it was him who ordered people to spread this news."
"If that's the case, I really want to drink three thousand cups of wine!"
Ning Hongtian laughed loudly.
...
Apart from Ning Qi's enemies who were happy, the people who were on good terms with him were all nervous and worried after receiving the news.
The order to ban the Hundred Herb Sect was no joke. This meant that as long as Ning Qi was in the territory of the Hundred Herb Sect... Whether it was in the Qintang Empire, the Redsun Empire, or the other vassal kingdoms of the Hundred Herb Sect... To an alchemist, it was impossible to buy the spiritual grass he needed. It's a hopeless situation!
Before Ning Qi reached the imperial palace, the officials of the imperial court had already arrived. Hundred Herb Sect It was a huge matter to ban Dragon Slaying Marquis, especially the family who had a grudge with Ning Qi. After hearing this news, it was as if they were celebrating the new year.
Huangfu Zhengxiao was the first to enter the palace. He bowed to Qin Zheng first, then said respectfully to Ho Soong, "Grandmaster He, I heard that you are here to convey the order of Hundred Herb Sect?"
"It's the order of Sect Leader."
Ho Soong said with a smile.
"Divine Martial Master, this is not a place for you to chat."
Qin Zheng glanced at Huangfu Zhengxiao. Huangfu Zhengxiao's expression changed and he did not say anything else.
Cao Dingloong also came, followed by Kong Xiaofeng and Nangong Batian.
When Ning Hongdou stepped into the main hall, his face did not look too good. He had replaced Ning Hongtian's position, so he could also be ranked in the Imperial Court.
"What's wrong? Does Dragon Slaying Marquis not dare to come?"
Ho Soong glanced at the officials and smirked.
Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Grandmaster He, you should wait. As far as I know, with Dragon Slaying Marquis's personality, there are too few things he would be afraid of. I'm afraid you are not one of them."
"Humph!"
Ho Soong's face alternated between green and white. It was obvious that Qin Zheng was mocking him. He snorted coldly and thought to himself, "Just wait and see. After you have blacklisted Ning Qi, sooner or later, your Qintang Empire will one day... It will be replaced by the Redsun Empire. Qin Zheng, you see, I can't afford it. I will stab a knife into your back and see who will laugh at the end! "
Outside the main hall.
Lin Tian followed beside the solemn Ning Qi. As he walked, he said in a low voice, "Dragon Slaying Marquis, where did you offend the Hundred Herb Sect? Why are they trying to ban you?"
Ning Qi sneered, "Because I don't want to accept the recruitment of the Hundred Herb Sect."
"This..."
Lin Tian revealed a bitter smile and persuaded, "Dragon Slaying Marquis, why not let the Emperor be a mediator. Remove the misunderstanding. After all, Hundred Herb Sect is a big sect. The Sect Leader, Bai Caozi, has an unfathomable cultivation base. He is a grandmaster of his generation, and he is also a Pill King in the Pill Dao. It was not wise to have a grudge with him, and it might affect the empire as well. It's not good for you either."
"Eunuch Lin, you don't have to persuade me. As for the Hundred Herb Sect, don't worry. If he wants to ban them, just let him do so. One day, I will replace him."
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"What!? Shh! Keep your voice down, if anyone hears you, I'm afraid your Dragon Slaying Marquis Mansion will be uprooted tonight! "
Lin Tian was startled. He didn't expect Ning Qi to say such a thing!0
Even Qin Zheng would only occasionally complain to others in private. He never dared to say that he would replace the Hundred Herb Sect. If this was heard by Bai Caozi, he was afraid that Qin Zheng wouldn't be able to continue being the Emperor!
"Haha, don't be afraid. Besides me, Eunuch Lin is the only one here. I believe that Eunuch Lin won't betray me."
Ning Qi said with a smile.
Lin Tian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and rolled his eyes. After that, he didn't try to persuade Ning Qi anymore. He was afraid that Ning Qi would say something more when they arrived in the main hall.
Under Lin Tian's lead, Ning Qi strode into the main hall.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Countless eyes swept over.
Some of them were friendly, worried, and encouraging.
There were also those who were filled with hatred, gloating, and delighted!
Ning Qi ignored all of them. When he met Ning Hongdou's eyes, he nodded slightly and then bowed to Qin Zheng, "This official, Ning Qi, greets the Emperor!"
Qin Zheng nodded his head, "No need for formalities."
"Thank you, Emperor."
Ning Qi straightened his back and looked at Ho Soong, who was sitting next to Qin Zheng.
"Today, Grandmaster He sent you here because he has an order from the Hundred Herb Sect to pass on the Sect Leader to you. Listen closely."
Qin Zheng said.
Ning Qi nodded slightly. There was a trace of a smile on his face, as if he was not worried about the upcoming storm.
