Ren Wushuang was becoming increasingly interested in Qin Feiyang for making such a shocking oath. Actually, Qin Feiyang was not as complicated as Ren Wushuang thought. His act was driven by a single reason: if the Emperor wouldn't act, he would!

Gathering his thoughts, Qin Feiyang rubbed off the word 'ruins' from his forehead, turned to the Lion Headed Hawk, and smiled, "Beast Emperor, I have saved the person. It's time for you to fulfill your promise!"

"What promise?" Ren Wushuang asked, puzzled.

The Lion Headed Hawk replied, "This human brat wants me to help destroy Yan Province."

"What?" Ren Wushuang's eyes widened as she glared at Qin Feiyang and said angrily, "Feiyang, have you gone mad? Do you realize that you're seeking death?"

With a bitter smile, Qin Feiyang explained, "Sister, you misunderstood. I just casually mentioned it once to test the Beast Emperor's sincerity; I didn't expect him to take it seriously."

Ren Wushuang sighed in relief.

"Sister?" The Lion Headed Hawk seemed puzzled.

Ren Wushuang laughed. "I now consider him my younger brother, so you should help him more in the future."

"Younger brother?" The Lion Headed Hawk scrutinized Qin Feiyang oddly. After a long pause, he finally uttered in a scornful tone, "You really know how to curry favor."

Qin Feiyang felt helpless. It was Ren Wushuang who had taken the initiative to acknowledge him as her younger brother, yet now *he* was being accused of currying favor?

The Lion Headed Hawk continued, "Since you are Master's younger brother, from now on, you should call this emperor 'Big Brother'!"

"Big Brother?" Qin Feiyang's face twitched.

"Old Eagle, stop messing around." Ren Wushuang glared at the Lion Headed Hawk and laughed. "Feiyang, just like me, you can call it 'Old Eagle' from now on."

"So quick to embrace the new and forget the old, huh!" the Lion Headed Hawk immediately began to lament.

Qin Feiyang chuckled. He never expected this ferocious creature to have such an endearing side.

Ren Wushuang asked, "Feiyang, are you preparing to deal with someone?"

With a solemn expression and a cold glint in his eyes, Qin Feiyang nodded. "I am planning to wipe out the Blood Slaughter Palace!"

"Blood Slaughter Palace?" Ren Wushuang furrowed her delicate brows, puzzled. "How come I've never heard of this faction?"

"The Blood Slaughter Palace only emerged in the last year or two."

"The Palace Master of the Blood Slaughter Palace is named Zuo An. He refines the Bloodfiend Pill, an act of heinous evil."

"Furthermore, he killed my friend!" Qin Feiyang added grimly.

"Bloodfiend Pill!" A chilling killing intent flickered in Ren Wushuang's beautiful eyes.

The Lion Headed Hawk asked, "Is he strong?"

"An Eight-star War Emperor!" Qin Feiyang replied.

The Lion Headed Hawk said, "He's quite a tricky opponent. It's better to directly call in people from the state office!"

"If I could call people from the state office, I would have told Wang Hong when he was here last time." Qin Feiyang shook his head. "To be honest, a few influential figures in Yan Province are intentionally concealing this from the state office."

"Wang Hong?" Ren Wushuang was taken aback and asked, "Is he the one who wears an eyepatch?"

"How do you know that?" Qin Feiyang was surprised.

Ren Wushuang smiled. "I've met him before. He's one of the Commanders from the state office and very powerful. He helped me a lot in the past."

Qin Feiyang had a flash of realization.

Ren Wushuang pondered for a moment, then smiled. "Dealing with Zuo An requires careful planning. Let's head to Yan Province first. You can explain the details to me on the way."

The Lion Headed Hawk said, "Master, we need to go to the Yan Pan Mountains first. This emperor wants to gather troops to cheer this lad on."

Qin Feiyang was delighted. The Lion Headed Hawk opened a portal.

Seeing this, the Blood Eagle immediately swooped down and asked, "Wait, what about me?"

Ren Wushuang smiled. "You're free now. You decide where you want to go next."

The Blood Eagle hesitated for a moment. "Master, I want to follow you. Please take me in."

Although the Land of Ruins was cruel, the outside world wasn't much better. To survive longer, it needed a powerful backer.

"No way," the Lion Headed Hawk refused, as expected.

Was she kidding? If the Blood Eagle followed, wouldn't its own status be affected?

Ren Wushuang laughed. "Of course, you can!"

"Thank you, Master," the Blood Eagle said respectfully, overjoyed.

"Master, you can't forget your old love just because you have a new one! Remember all the times I went through life and death with you..." The Lion Headed Hawk started to panic. It seriously felt its position was under threat.

Qin Feiyang teased, "Old Eagle, I never thought you'd get jealous. But don't worry, the Blood Eagle has a decent temperament; it won't threaten your position."

"Get lost!" the Lion Headed Hawk roared. "We go way back! It's one thing if you don't help this emperor, but to side with *it*? What are you trying to pull?"

Qin Feiyang rolled his eyes. Old acquaintance? If it wasn't for this fellow's relentless pressure, he wouldn't have entered the Land of Ruins in the first place. As for being acquaintances, they certainly weren't. A bellyful of grievances, though? He had plenty of that. Did it want some?

"Enough, stop messing around." Ren Wushuang glared at the Lion Headed Hawk. She took out the Qiankun Bag from her bosom, retrieved a brightly colored medicinal pill, and handed it to the Blood Eagle. "This is a Transformation Pill. Take it."

The Blood Eagle asked, puzzled, "What is a Transformation Pill?"

"It allows you to freely change your size. You don't even know this, you country bumpkin," the Lion Headed Hawk sneered.

The Blood Eagle's eyes lit up; it immediately snatched the pill and swallowed it.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Sister, do you have any more Transformation Pills?"

Ren Wushuang replied, "No more. Transformation Pills are very valuable. I was only able to buy two back then."

Qin Feiyang was somewhat disappointed. He originally intended to ask for one for the Wolf King. Now it seemed he would have to wait until he could refine it himself.

Without further delay, the two humans and two eagles entered the portal one after another, arriving above the central area of the Yan Pan Mountains.

The Lion Headed Hawk let out a sharp screech. Immediately, fifteen War Emperor-level ferocious beasts rushed over from all directions.

"See?" The Lion Headed Hawk looked at the Blood Eagle triumphantly. "They are all my underlings. You'd better behave yourself in the future, or I'll have them tear you apart."

The Blood Eagle nodded repeatedly, its eyes full of adoration.

Ren Wushuang looked helplessly at Qin Feiyang.

Qin Feiyang shrugged. This Lion Headed Hawk fellow was so fickle he could turn hostile at any moment; he dared not get involved.

Then, Qin Feiyang and Ren Wushuang stood on the Lion Headed Hawk's back, leading the fifteen ferocious beasts as they flew majestically towards Yan Province.

Wherever they passed, all beasts bowed in worship!

「Twenty days later.」

The beasts concealed their auras and crossed into Yan Province's territory.

Originally, with the Lion Headed Hawk's strength, it would have only taken three or four days to arrive. However, the fifteen War Emperor-realm ferocious beasts couldn't keep up with its speed. Moreover, since it had been over twenty years, Ren Wushuang also wanted to enjoy the sights and relax, so they traveled at a leisurely pace, stopping and starting along the way.

Qin Feiyang was not in a hurry either. After explaining Zuo An's situation to Ren Wushuang, he began to cultivate.

Before entering the territory of Yan Province, his strength broke through once again, advancing to a Seven-star Martial Ancestor!

Even Ren Wushuang was stunned by this speed. She later inquired and learned that Qin Feiyang had already opened the second layer of the Door of Potential and was also a Top Grade Alchemist.

She truly cherished this adoptive younger brother from the bottom of her heart.

「An hour later.」

Under Qin Feiyang's lead, the beasts entered the deep mountains outside Yan City, concealed their auras, and went into hiding.

Ren Wushuang then flew with Qin Feiyang to a mountaintop near Yan City, overlooking the massive city below. The Lion Headed Hawk and Blood Eagle had transformed into palm-sized creatures, perched on Ren Wushuang's shoulders, one on the left and one on the right.

Ren Wushuang asked, "Feiyang, do you have any plans?"

Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed with a startling killing intent. "The first step is to identify the other War Emperor. Let's go to the Martial King Palace first and see if Yan Nanshan and the others have found any clues."

After speaking, he swallowed a Shape-shifting Pill, transforming into a young man in his early twenties, and sneered, "Zuo An, Jia Hei, Elder Lin, you never imagined that I, Qin Feiyang, would return, did you?"

WHOOSH!

Ren Wushuang waved her hand, sweeping Qin Feiyang up, and in the blink of an eye, they landed in the jungle below. Then, the two of them walked out of the jungle and headed towards the city gate together.

"Wow!"

"So beautiful!"

"Who is she? Why have I never seen her before?"

"I wish I could be one of those hawks on her shoulder, just to be near her beauty!"

"Who's that man beside her? How can he be so close to her?"

All along the way, Ren Wushuang was the center of attention, attracting the gaze of every man. Consequently, Qin Feiyang naturally became the public enemy of all men.

Upon arriving at the city gate, the four guards stationed there were also love-struck. It wasn't until Qin Feiyang and Ren Wushuang had entered the city that the guards remembered they had forgotten to question the pair.

Ren Wushuang was truly too beautiful. Men were captivated by her, and women were driven mad with jealousy.

"Sister, you should change your appearance too," Qin Feiyang said with a bitter smile. He had originally planned to visit the Flying Phoenix Building to inquire about Zuo An's recent situation. But now, it seemed that if he brought such a femme fatale with him into the Flying Phoenix Building, he would likely be killed by the glares of those men.

Ren Wushuang couldn't help but smile.

"Let's go directly to the Martial King Palace," Qin Feiyang said.

Under his guidance, in just a short while, Ren Wushuang had brought him to the main gate of the Martial King Palace.

Elder Qu walked out of the reception hall. His eyes showed a hint of amazement, but his expression was mostly one of puzzlement. He glanced at the two of them and asked, "May I ask what brings you to the Martial King Palace?"

Qin Feiyang smiled. "Elder, long time no see."

"You know me?" Elder Qu looked at him in confusion.

Qin Feiyang approached Elder Qu, leaned in, and whispered a name in his ear.

"Is it really you? Qin—" Elder Qu's body trembled, and he exclaimed excitedly.

"SHHH!" Seeing that Elder Qu was about to call out his name, Qin Feiyang quickly made a hushing gesture.

Elder Qu intelligently glanced at the street outside and whispered, "How can you prove your identity?"

"It was you, Elder, along with Fatty and Lu Hong, who staged an act to deceive that man in black from the Blood Slaughter Palace," Qin Feiyang replied.

This was precisely why he had unreservedly told Elder Qu his true identity.

"It really is you!" Elder Qu was overjoyed and whispered, "Since Zuo An infiltrated Yan City, people have been lurking outside our gates every day. We suspect they're from the Blood Slaughter Palace, so I needed to confirm."

"That's understandable." Qin Feiyang smiled and, without turning his head, discreetly scanned the street. Indeed, several suspicious-looking individuals were glancing in their direction.

"The Hall Master said not to tip off the enemy. You should head to the Law Enforcement Hall quickly." Elder Qu then looked at Ren Wushuang with confusion. "By the way, who is this?"

"She's my sister," Qin Feiyang replied.

"How come I didn't know you had a sister?" Elder Qu said, puzzled. "And you two don't look alike at all!"

Of course, they didn't look alike; she wasn't his biological sister. However, he wasn't in the mood to explain right now.

"We'll talk more about it later." Qin Feiyang gave a faint smile, then led Ren Wushuang straight into the Martial King Palace, rapidly heading for the Law Enforcement Hall.

Returning to the Martial King Palace, he felt a particular sense of security, a long-lost feeling of belonging. Perhaps it was because of the kindness Yan Nanshan, Elder Wan, and Elder Ji had shown him that he had come to consider this place another home.
