Chapter 164

Great Sui, Lingnan.

Inside the Whetstone Hall.

Staring blankly at the contents of the Heaven's Golden List.

Song Que's face could not help but show a faint bitter smile.

"Is this the terror of a top-tier expert?"

As a master of the blade.

He could even be counted among the very few blade masters on the Nine Provinces continent.

He had always prided himself on his exceptional talent.

But now.

He was still somewhat shaken by Dugu Qiubai.

Compared to him.

His so-called Nine Questions of the Blade felt like child's play.

Not to mention the stages of the Blade Dao—he hadn't even figured out his own path!

If not for years of sitting motionless in the Whetstone Hall.

His heart would have been refined beyond recognition.

He might have already lost stability in his Dao heart!

Great Qin, Xianyanggong.

"Does Qinglong Society have such a person?"

Staring at the contents of the Heaven's Golden List.

Hearing Ying Zheng slightly furrowed his brows.

As a sovereign of grand vision and ambition.

His perspective and insight had always been far deeper than ordinary men.

Therefore.

He naturally saw at a glance the terror of Dugu Qiubai!

Looking across the history of the Nine Provinces.

Ask yourself.

Which founding patriarch figure could possibly be ordinary?

Most importantly.

This is only the Third Dragon Head!!

Above him, besides Ximen Wudi,

There is also the Second Dragon Head of Qinglong Society!

One can imagine.

If even the Fifth, Fourth, and Third Dragon Heads are this terrifying!

Then what manner of terrifying, majestic being must the Second Dragon Head—

Who stands above them all—be?!

Thinking of this,

Hearing Ying Zheng's brows tightened further.

He could not help but ask aloud.

"Any news on Qinglong Society yet?"

"Your servant is incompetent! Please, Your Majesty, punish me!"

Upon hearing this,

Hearing Zhang Han fell to one knee with a thud.

He lowered his head.

Sweat instantly drenched his forehead.

He was anxious inside too.

But the key issue was.

Qinglong Society was hidden far too deeply.

Even with increased efforts,

The territory of the Nine Provinces continent was so vast.

Not to mention the Heibing Tai.

Even ten more would be completely insufficient!

"Enough. This is not your fault."

He too had thought of this.

Hearing Ying Zheng waved his hand, not holding it against him.

He knew.

Since Ximen Wudi had always kept Qinglong Society hidden from the world,

It meant his ambitions were great.

If so,

How could he possibly be found so easily?

If it were truly this simple,

Could the Qinglong Society still be this terrifying?!

Did he still need to be so wary?!

"Thank Your Majesty."

Zhang Han wiped away his cold sweat and sighed with relief.

"Though the fault is not yours, this matter must be continuously followed up for me!"

"Once there is the slightest news of the Qinglong Society."

"I wish to see it all on my dragon desk!"

It seemed he had just thought of something.

On Ying Zheng's solemn face, there was intense seriousness.

His tiger-like eyes were even more heart-stopping!

"Yes!"

Zhang Han nodded firmly.

Dayuan, Imperial City.

"Zhang Sanfeng, Zhang Daoling, Li Taibai, Senior Xiaoyaozi—now there's also Dugu Qiubai."

"It seems the remaining second Dragon Chief is no ordinary figure!"

He stared intently at the heavenly golden list in the void.

Tie Muzhen's eyes sparkled with brilliance as he exclaimed in awe.

His heart's shock at Dugu Qiubai.

Was no less than Ying Zheng's.

Even greater!

He simply did not show it.

"This man's cultivation is truly terrifying!"

Beside him, State Preceptor Bashi Ba couldn't help but exclaim.

His originally solemn and dignified old face.

Now filled with solemnity.

As one who had once fought Ximen Wudi.

Though he dared not speak lightly of the other's strength.
