Supreme Dragon Seal

Chapter 45: Promotion

In the main tent of the army camp, Qi Bei was busy writing with a pen.

After a short while, he put down his pen, folded and sealed the letter, handed it to Huaian, and said, Big brother, Im in a hurry this time, and theres something I havent had time to take care of. After I leave, please secretly send this letter to the Marquis of Lanling, and dont let anyone else know.

Marquis of Lanling?

Huaian was a little puzzled, but he didnt ask any more questions since he trusted his own brother. Therefore, he readily agreed.

Half an hour later, Lie Feng and Iron Head had already prepared everything, and the siblings Jin Gang and Huan Ying had also arrived at Qi Beis side.

Father, big brother, take care. Qi Bei hugged Raymond and Huaian, turned around and got on a carriage, while the 250 Black Armored soldiers turned into a small caravan escort, following Qi Bei on this journey.

Qi Bei lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked back. The huge imperial city was becoming smaller and smaller in his eyes, and his heart was filled with a burning passion.

Someday, I, Qi Bei, will return in a way that will attract the attention of the world. Qi Bei thought to himself.

Perhaps someday, it would be recorded in the historical records: on a dark night, a young man walked out of the Imperial City and headed towards the vast world, swimming in the sea of fire and soaring in the sky like a dragon

At dawn, the Golden Leaf Road, the imperial road of the city was very quiet.

The steward of the Marquis Mansion knocked on Kasefs room holding a letter in his hand.

Whats the matter? Kasef opened the door. He had just awakened from his meditation and was not particularly surprised.

Its a letter for the Marquis. A person wearing a cloak delivered it and said its related to the Marquiss life and death. The steward handed the letter over with trembling hands.

Kasef concentrated the battle qi in his hand, took the letter, and waved his hand to let the steward leave.

After reading the letter, Kasefs pupils suddenly shrank, and his hands trembled. He almost dropped the letter.

Bedroom puppets, underground secret room, Nan Wuya, Dark Saint Mage Wutian. Tonight at midnight, 500 miles northwest of the imperial city in the Blue River Town, dont be late, or face the consequences. The letter was only two short lines, but it made Kasefs soul almost leave his body. His heart was in his throat.

Except for the mysterious powerhouse who saved Nan Wuya and killed Dark Saint Mage Wutian that day, no one else should know about this. Why is he looking for me? Kasef took a few deep breaths to calm his pounding heart.

He, as a powerful figure, could have killed me long ago. He approached me with this letter, which means I still have some use to him, Kasef thought. He was not alarmed, but rather pleased, as the Dark Saint Mage was dead, and the matter of Nan Wuya might burn down on him at any time. If he could cling to another powerful figure, it would be even better.

Kasef then immediately changed his clothes and quietly left the mansion, heading towards Blue River Town 500 miles away.

The sun rose from the horizon, and the imperial city began to bustle.

At this moment, a group of guards escorted an imperial palace official to the Nord family mansion and announced the decree of Emperor Han Mo.

Patriarch of the Nord family, His Majesty the Emperor has ordered the ascension of Qi Bei Nords status. Qi Bei is promoted from a Viscount to a First Viscount, and he is renamed as the lord of the New Dawn City, Verdant Hills City, and Mingxin City. He is to go to the palace immediately to meet His Majesty, the palace official respectfully said to Kurt Nord. Facing the patriarch of the number one noble family of the Golden Leaf Empire, even though he was the confidant of Emperor Han Mo, he dared not be impulsive.

Ah, I didnt expect my fifth grandson to be so favored by His Majesty. If I had known, I would have made him stay, Kurt sighed.

What? Where did the Sir Viscount go? the palace official asked in surprise.

That boy is rebellious and couldnt wait to go to his fiefdom. After the engagement ceremony was over, he left. He is truly unworthy of His Majestys favor. Im afraid he will never have such good luck again, Kurt said regretfully.

I I will go and report to His Majesty immediately. Excuse me, the palace official was shocked and quickly left.

Emperor Han Mo received the report from the palace official and slapped the desk in front of him hard. The books and ink on it were shaken and scattered on the floor.

What a cunning old fox, Han Mo gritted his teeth.

Immediately investigate the large and small business groups and armies that left the imperial city last night and find the trace of Qi Bei. Intercept him immediately, Han Mo soon calmed down from his anger and calmly issued the order.

The imperial city was turbulent all night. The ordinary people were still enthusiastically discussing the topic of Qi Bei and Princess Ming Yues wedding, while the situation behind the scenes was much more complicated.

The chess game between the royal family and the Nord family was obviously one step behind, which made the contradiction between the two sides more acute. What was originally hidden under the storm had emerged at this moment.

In the Dreaming Moon Palace, Ming Yue and the Feng family sisters sat together.

Brother Qi Bei left? Why did he leave so soon? Feng Ruoyu opened her mouth wide in surprise and asked.

I just found out as well, Ming Yue appeared very calm. There was no emotional fluctuation in her expression. She seemed to be talking about something irrelevant to her.

Feng Ruoyun didnt say anything, being as intelligent as she was, she could already guess the reason behind the event.

Sister Ming Yue, youre his wife, didnt he say goodbye to you? Feng Ruoyu complained, it was obvious that she was not angry at Ming Yue but rather at Qi Bei. He left without even saying goodbye to her, which was really frustrating.

Goodbye? Did they need to say goodbye between them? Since they both understood what was happening, there was no need for goodbyes.

However, even though she thought that way, Ming Yue still felt a slight melancholy in her heart.

Their worlds intersected for only a moment, then they went in opposite directions again. The curiosity that had been stirred within her would also fade with time.

As Feng Ruoyu chattered on, scolding Qi Bei, Ming Yue and Feng Ruoyun were lost in their own thoughts.

Just then, a palace maid ran over, her face full of panic. She stuttered, PrincessPrincess, Feng Tian has arrived.

Feng Ruoyun pulled Feng Ruoyu, saying, Ming Yue, we need to leave for home now. If you have time, you can come find me at the Golden Fortress.

Sure, take care on your way back. Ming Yue nodded.

As the sisters left the palace, they saw Feng Tian coming in. Both of them were shocked by the sight of the scar on his neck up to the corner of his left eye. Although he wore a clean black robe, the scar was so prominent, it looked like a centipede crawling on his face, making their hearts cold.

Sister, our Feng family has a spirit medicine that can heal this kind of injury. Even if its not comparable to the treatment of Holy Land, the Light Temples priests can perform a healing spell if we ask for their help. As a disciples of the Heavenly Mountain Peak, the priests of the Light Temple would still give him some face, Feng Ruoyu said softly.

Its not that he cant heal, its just that he doesnt want to, Feng Ruoyun shook her head lightly, recalling the sinister look in Feng Tians eyes just now. It seemed that his hatred for Qi Bei was already engraved in his soul.
