The Choice of the Great Qian Imperial Family

Jiang Zongquan rushed back to Tian Province at top speed. After returning to Sky City, he immediately entered the palace without stopping and hurriedly headed towards the Qinzheng Hall where Jiang Lan usually stayed.

Inside the Qinzheng Hall, Jiang Lan looked up at her great-uncle, who had rushed back covered in dust, and asked with some surprise, "Great-uncle, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

With a grave expression, Jiang Zongquan said to Jiang Lan, "Your Majesty, something terrible has indeed happened. Lu Tianheng is practicing Bloodthirsty Evil Art."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan frowned. Although his talent for cultivation was average, he had read the royal library and knew some secrets about cultivation.

He knew that a long time ago, there was a sect that specialized in practicing Bloodthirsty Evil Art. Later, it was destroyed by a united effort of martial artists from all over the world.

Afterwards, they completely burned that Bloodthirsty Evil Art, which finally calmed the incident down.

He never expected that Lu Tianheng would be so audacious as to defy the world and cultivate that Bloodthirsty Evil Art in order to advance his strength.

And most importantly, how long has he been practicing this Bloodthirsty Evil Art, and where did he obtain this technique from?

Why did he obtain it? Is there some force behind it manipulating things? Or is there some force plotting against our Great Qian?

A series of thoughts flashed through Jiang Lan's mind, and her expression kept changing.

Seeing that his words seemed to have sparked countless thoughts in Jiang Lan, Jiang Zongquan quickly continued, "Your Majesty, the most important thing now is how we should deal with this matter?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan immediately looked up at Jiang Zongquan and said, "Grand Uncle, if we had a way to deal with Lu Tianheng, we wouldn't be in this predicament today."

Hearing Jiang Lan say this, Jiang Zongquan sighed helplessly. He had been worried that if Lu Tianheng continued to advance successfully...

Their royal family would certainly not have a good ending, which is why they rushed back in such a hurry.

Little did they know that even after returning, they still couldn't deal with Lu Tianheng.

Suddenly, Jiang Zongquan seemed to have a premonition of the final fate of the Great Qian Imperial Family.

Jiang Lan stood up and paced around the main hall with her hands behind her back. Actually, there were still ways to get rid of Lu Tianheng.

Jiang Lan didn't really want to use this method, because if she did, there would definitely be some unforeseen circumstances.

And this variable could lead the Great Qian Imperial Family to an unknown destination.

However, if Lu Tianheng is not eliminated and allowed to advance to the Saint Realm, the situation will likely be even worse than it is now.

Moreover, he could take this opportunity to negotiate terms with the three sects.

"Grand Uncle, if we really want to get rid of Lu Tianheng, we can definitely use external forces," Jiang Lan said thoughtfully.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zongquan frowned slightly.

Because he knew that seeking external help meant cooperating with the three sects.

If we cooperate with the three factions, some uncontrollable situations will arise, and the prestige of the royal family will be further weakened.

After all, it's a case of colluding with outsiders to eliminate one's own people in the Great Qian Dynasty; it doesn't sound good to say that out loud.

However, relying solely on him and Dao Fan Shangren, they would not be able to eliminate Lu Tianheng.

Moreover, he could sense from Lu Tianheng's aura that Lu Tianheng's strength far surpassed his own.

That's why he was so anxious, because he didn't know when Lu Tianheng would advance to the Saint Realm, so he was immediately caught in a dilemma.

"Actually, Uncle doesn't need to be in a difficult position, because at that time, it won't be us seeking cooperation with the three sects, but rather the three sects coming to us for cooperation," Jiang Lan said with a smile.

"Oh?" Jiang Zongquan became interested when he heard Jiang Lan say that.

As long as it's not the Great Qian Imperial Family that contacts the Three Sects to eliminate Lu Tianheng, that's fine.

After all, Lu Tianheng is a member of the Great Qian Imperial Family. If the Great Qian Imperial Family were to step forward, how would the people of the world view the Great Qian Imperial Family?

Will anyone continue to serve the Great Qian Imperial Family? I'm afraid that by then, the Great Qian Imperial Family's situation will become even more difficult.

Now that Jiang Lan has said this, Jiang Zongquan is definitely happy to cooperate with the three sects.

Jiang Lan then explained her plan, and Jiang Lan Jiang Zongquan was very satisfied after hearing it.

Perhaps this is the best way to deal with Lu Tianheng.

Actually, this method is very simple; it's just the same approach used to deal with the sects that practiced Bloodthirsty Evil Art.

The plan is to leak the news that Lu Tianheng is practicing Bloodthirsty Evil Art, and then incite the entire martial arts Jianghu to launch a campaign against Lu Tianheng.

This forced the three sects to step in and deal with the matter.

Of course, the royal family will definitely fuel this effort from behind, making it a huge success.

Only in this way will the three sects have to face this matter, and at that time, the three sects will definitely have to come to negotiate with the Great Qian Imperial Family.

At that time, the Great Qian Imperial Family will be able to make its own demands.

After Jiang Lan finished explaining the plan to Jiang Zongquan, the two discussed it in detail again before Jiang Zongquan took his leave.

Now we just have to wait and see how the whole thing unfolds. As for Jiang Zongquan's advancement to the Peak Grandmaster level, it's best to keep it a secret if possible.

After all, the more hidden strength the royal family has, the safer they are.

Lu Tianheng was unaware that his practice of the Bloodthirsty Evil Art had been exposed.

After he devoured Ji Qiang, he sat cross-legged in the cave and continued to practice his cultivation technique to calm his excessively inflated power.

He vividly remembered his two previous encounters with Dao Fan Shangren, and how he had Dao Fan Shangren both times.

This forced him to submit to that Dao Fan Shangren.

This left a deep shadow in his heart, so he wanted to take this opportunity to further consolidate and improve his strength.

Then he would look for an opportunity to take revenge on Dao Fan Shangren. If he could find a way to trick Dao Fan Shangren, he would be even more willing.

The next day, after finishing his training, Lu Tianheng came out of the cave and headed towards the small county town.

However, the evil, bloodthirsty aura emanating from him had not completely disappeared, making people afraid to look at him for long.

After Lu Tianheng returned to the small county town, he found that apart from Chen Qiansong, everyone else had already gone to Mo Prefecture.

In particular, He Chu and Liu Changxing, who were missing an arm or a leg, had already set off overnight.

Lu Tianheng was immediately disappointed. He had originally planned to devour his two missing-arm and broken-leg subordinates as well.

After all, his subordinate was so badly injured that he was practically half-crippled. He wouldn't be of much use anyway, so it was better to let him go.

Unexpectedly, they left early, so we can only hope for another chance next time.

Disappointed, Lu Tianheng then took Chen Qiansong and left the small county town, heading towards Mo Prefecture.
