I Can Strengthen Infinitely

Chapter 455 - 284: The Eunuch Marquis of Nine Thousand Years (Part 4)

Unexpectedly, Qin Yuesheng suddenly threw a punch. It was so sudden, nobody had time to react.

"How dare you!" The little old man shouted in shock and anger. In all his years at the Seven-Star Supervisor, he had never encountered such insubordination.

Qin Yuesheng delivered his punch with calm indifference. The little old man relied on his status as a Silver Toad official. When Zuo Zonghao had reported Qin Yuesheng’s promotion to Bronze Toad rank, he only claimed Qin Yuesheng was at the Third Layer of the Internal Power Realm, so by strength alone, he should have no way of competing with the old man’s Sixth Layer of the Internal Power Realm.

Seeing Qin Yuesheng act against his superior, the little old man decided instantly to teach this Bronze Toad underling a harsh lesson. He lunged with both hands; a black bear apparition surfaced behind him, swinging its bear paw to strike Qin Yuesheng’s fist.

BANG!

Their fist and palm collided. The old man was confident in his win, but to his shock, a powerful force exploded from Qin Yuesheng’s hand. He had no chance to resist—his arm bones snapped instantly, and he was sent flying, crashing into several street vendors’ stalls.

Qin Yuesheng had intentionally held back, sparing this man’s life. If not, the old guy wouldn’t have survived even one move.

"Urgh!" The old man lay on the ground, vomiting blood repeatedly, his face a mask of disbelief.

He couldn’t fathom how Qin Yuesheng could possess such strength. Just how much did Zuo Zonghao under-report his abilities?

With power like this, in the Seven-Star Supervisor, he could be a Gold Toad official, let alone Silver.

Qin Yuesheng walked over and grabbed him by the collar, lifting him up: "What’s your aim in coming to find me this time?"

The old man, clutching his broken arm, dared not hide a thing: "Some time ago, Prince Li Mu secretly sent me away from Chang’an, to Jiangnan in search of the Ninth Princess. I’ve searched everywhere, found nothing, so I came to Cyan Yang City to ask you for information. Have you seen any sign of the Ninth Princess?"

Qin Yuesheng asked, "Then why not send a stronger Gold Toad official for the task?"

The old man gave a bitter smile: "All Gold Toad officials are being closely watched by the Ten Regular Attendants. It’s impossible for them to sneak out of Chang’an. That I, a Silver Toad official, managed to slip away, is only thanks to Prince Li Mu’s cunning."

Qin Yuesheng had secretly supported Sanhuang to become the King of Jiangnan. Few people knew this; and since he harbored ambition to rebel against Tang, those Seven-Star Supervisor ranks meant nothing to Qin Yuesheng anymore.

Seeing this little old man dare boss him around and bark orders, Qin Yuesheng couldn’t stand it for even a moment. He had to give him a taste of suffering, so he’d recognize his own place.

"I’ve already rescued the Ninth Princess. She’s staying somewhere very safe now," Qin Yuesheng said.

The old man was overjoyed: "Thank heaven! That’s wonderful—at least the Crown Prince’s bloodline is preserved."

Qin Yuesheng asked: "Since you snuck out from Chang’an, and you’re a higher-up in the Seven-Star Supervisor, then let me ask you—why are those eunuchs in Chang’an so desperate to hunt down Ah Jiu,

They even managed to get Yuan Wudi, a master from the army, to join the pursuit. Is it really just because she’s the Crown Prince’s descendant?"

"What?! Yuan Wudi was here?!" The old man was stunned.

He wasn’t a fool—if Qin Yuesheng said Yuan Wudi was here, with Yuan’s nature, the two would have fought for sure.

And now Qin Yuesheng was standing here safe, which meant Yuan Wudi had lost to him.

This level of strength... In the Seven-Star Supervisor, he’d definitely qualify as a Gold Toad official!

The old man instantly shifted his tone and replied, "I’m not too sure about that. All I know is that day, the Crown Prince’s chief guard, Li Honglie, brought the Ninth Princess to the Seven-Star Supervisor,

He begged Prince Li Mu to send people who could safely escort the Ninth Princess out of Chang’an, and find her a place to hide, so she’d be safe from harm."
