Shen Yi's crushing defeat of Yu Feng sent the morale of the entire West Sea delegation plunging to rock bottom. Yu Feng in particular suffered a severe blow after his loss and did not show his face for several days, clearly still unable to emerge from the shadow of defeat.
Yet a major event taking place in the Imperial City now forced Yu Feng to appear once more. The reason was that Former Qin had also dispatched a delegation.
"Qin Lin, it's you!"
The instant Yu Feng saw the leader of the Former Qin delegation, fury flared within him. Clearly, there was no small grudge between him and Qin Lin.
"Heh, I wondered who it was. I never expected it to be barbarians from the West Sea Kingdom. You actually came to Qianyuan too? I heard you want to marry the Two Princesses. What shameless boasting. Qianyuan's princesses can only belong to our Qin State."
Qin Lin had clearly long known about Yu Feng's affairs in the Qianyuan Dynasty, which was why he seized this chance to shower him with mockery and veiled barbs. The war between Former Qin and the West Sea had now reached a stalemate. Both sides urgently needed an ally, and the Qianyuan Dynasty, the strongest power on the continent, naturally became the object of both parties' efforts to win over.
After learning that the West Sea Kingdom had already sent a delegation to Shengjing, Former Qin had no choice but to unite internally, select their respective candidates, and form a joint delegation that also set out for Qianyuan. Their purpose was likewise to draw the Qianyuan Dynasty into an alliance against the West Sea Kingdom. The simplest and most effective method was to marry the Two Princesses of Qianyuan who had yet to wed.
