Someone Breaks Down the Door

When the new emperor of the Chu Kingdom ascended the throne, a similar major event occurred in Qin State. Jing Xing, the former head of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, once again set up Rain Dance array at the Heavenly Machine Platform. This time, to everyone's surprise, Jing Xing succeeded in Rain Dance. It rained continuously for three hours throughout Great Qin. The people of Qin State were overjoyed and wept with joy, spreading the news far and wide.

The First Emperor was overjoyed, rewarded Jing Xing handsomely, and allowed him to be reinstated to his original position as the head of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion.

In an instant, the name of Jing Xing, the master of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, became the topic of conversation for everyone in the Qin State Kingdom. They all called him a reincarnation of an immortal, possessing the Jing Xing power to summon wind and rain. Jing Xing's prestige reached its peak at this moment. The First Emperor granted Jing Xing the privilege of traveling in a six-jeweled carriage and entering the Afang Palace without having to walk.

However, those with ulterior motives were greatly puzzled by Jing Xing's successful Rain Dance and began to inquire about his Jing Xing after Rain Dance failure.

What surprised everyone even more was that, under these circumstances, an unknown message circulated that Jing Xing had spent the night in a small shop called "Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two" on Chang'an Street in Tianzhu City.

The message ended there, but it was enough to illustrate the point, so everyone turned their attention to the "Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two" on Chang'an Street Tianzhu City and sent people to investigate.

According to the reports from the returning spies, this Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two has not been open for business for several days. Inquiries with the surrounding neighbors revealed that they knew nothing about this suddenly appearing shop, nor did they know who the owner was or what business it was operating for.

Thus, in the minds of these people, this Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two truly became magical, and they sent people to guard Chang'an Street day and night, waiting for the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two to open.

Among the group, Prime Minister Di Heyu was the most concerned about the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two. Ever since Qin Ziying reminded him that the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two was in contact with Jing Xing, he personally went to Chang'an Street to investigate. Although he returned empty-handed, Prime Minister Di Heyu learned more information than the others: the Magical Second Shop had only been open for one night, and Qin Ziying had also told him that it had rained heavily in Qin State that night.

Compared to others, Prime Minister Di Heyu was most eager to understand how Jing Xing had learned this secret technique. Jingxing's successful Rain Dance Jing Xing had brought him a great sense of crisis. He had to find out the reason, then devise a countermeasure to bring down Jing Xing again and send him to reunite with his sister.

Night falls on Chang'an Street.

In the small courtyard opposite the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two, Prime Minister Di Heyu was sitting on a stone bench, reading a book.

"Master, it's already past midnight." The butler standing to the side glanced at the sky and couldn't help but remind him.

"Hmm..." Di Heyu responded, looked up at the full moon in the sky, and sighed, "It's July already."

Upon hearing Di Heyu's words, the steward lowered his head and dared not speak.

Di Heyu's son was killed in July in the Yihong Tower of Tianpeng City, one of the three upper cities, by Jing Xing's ninth-level killing formation. Therefore, July is a month that no one in the Prime Minister's mansion dares to mention.

"Is it still not open tonight?" Di Heyu asked casually.

"Still no movement. Shall we just break down the door?" the butler suggested. Many forces have been coming and going these past few days, trying to probe the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two, but none have resorted to Superpower to break in. Everyone is still somewhat wary of this particular force.

However, for Prime Minister Di Heyu, there was really nothing in the Great Qin territory that he dared not enter except the imperial palace; it was precisely because Di Heyu had this ability that the entire Prime Minister's mansion became arrogant.

Di Heyu had also lost patience. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Go, break down the door."

"Yes!" the butler replied and left.

Then, at the entrance of the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two, a group of people surrounded him.

"Xiong Da, Xiong Er, open the door, and remember not to make a sound," the steward said in a deep voice. Although they were from the Prime Minister's residence, they still had to pay some attention to their image.

Two burly men, each two meters tall, stepped forward, walked to the Bookstore entrance, raised their palms, and their palms were filled with Spiritual Power.

"Call!"

Xiong Da and Xiong Er exhaled a breath of stale air, pushed their palms forward, and struck towards the gate.

'Bang!'

A tremendous Tackle was heard.

Xiong Da and Xiong Er felt a powerful force rebounding from the gate, which sent them flying.

'Boom~'

It crashed into the opposite wall, its fate unknown.

"Quickly check if they're dead!" The steward was shocked and immediately ordered people to rescue Xiong Da and Xiong Er.

"Butler, they're dead!" The servants dragged out Xiong Da and Xiong Er to check their breaths, and finding them lifeless, shouted.

"Hiss!" The butler gasped, turning to look at the door, utterly shocked.

At the same time.

In Dubian Town, Ma Feifei had just returned to the Bookstore during the day and was lying in bed Rest when a system notification suddenly popped into his mind.

'Ding~ The Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two is under attack. Please proceed to the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two immediately to stop it.'

The system's voice startled Ma Feifei awake. He jumped up, threw on his clothes, and ran outside.

"Knock knock knock~"

"Qingyang, come out quickly! Someone's causing trouble!"

"Crunch~"

Yun Qingyang looked at Ma Feifei with a blank expression.

Ma Feifei had no time to explain to her at this moment. He grabbed her hand and ran towards the teleportation portal, asking as he ran, "Did you wear the ring? Did you take the Qingshuang Sword? You don't have any of those ridiculous situations where you lose Spiritual Power in the middle of the night, do you?"

"..."

Outside the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two on Chang'an Street.

"What's going on?" Di Heyu came out of the courtyard after hearing the commotion, his face not looking too good. There were quite a few forces paying attention to the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two. Forcibly breaking in was not a glorious thing to begin with, and now that such a big commotion had occurred, it was bound to cause gossip. If it got back to the First Emperor, it would be difficult to explain.

"Master, there's something strange about this door." The butler jogged to Di Heyu's side, pointed to the door of the Magical Second Shop, and frowned slightly. Just now, when Xiong Da and Xiong Er touched the door, he felt a powerful force surging out from it. Xiong Da and Xiong Er were sent flying and killed by this force.

Upon hearing this, Di Heyu looked at the entrance of the Mysterious Bookstore Branch Two. The dark wooden door had mottled patterns on it, and on the surface, it was no different from an ordinary wooden door.

"Go try again." Without seeing it with his own eyes, Di Heyu still held a degree of caution towards the door.

Upon hearing this, the butler's expression changed. He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and walked towards the door.

The sudden and tragic deaths of Xiong Da and Xiong Er put a lot of pressure on the butler, to the point that he is now hesitant to break down doors, fearing that he will be the next to die.

But the master has already given the order; he has no choice but to break down this door.

"I'll just give it a light tap, it should be fine, right?" the butler thought to himself. In his mind, this door must be some kind of magical artifact with a rebounding ability. Such artifacts generally determine the strength of the rebound based on the attacker's strength; that is, the greater the attack, the greater the rebound, and vice versa. In this case, if he just pretended to tap the door lightly, then took a few steps back, pretending to be knocked back, wouldn't he perfectly avoid this predicament?

Thinking of this, the butler no longer hesitated. His Spiritual Power exploded, with the special effects turned up to the maximum. The brightness of his Spiritual Power could be seen throughout Chang'an Street.

The butler's cultivation level is very high, possessing the Spirit Venerable Eighth Stage realm. With all special effects activated, his aura is naturally extraordinary.

'Drink up!'

To convince his master that he had done his best, the butler's face turned as fierce as a Vajra, his voice booming like a bell. He raised his palm to the sky, gathering Spiritual Power in it, and with a roar, swung it towards the door.

Suddenly, the door opened with a creak.

Ma Feifei and Yun Qingyang searched around the Bookstore for ages before finally finding the door. As soon as they opened it, they saw a hand with dazzling special effects slapping towards them.

'Heh...' Ma Feifei sneered, 'Don't you know Laozi invincible in the Bookstore?' He immediately raised his hand to meet the attack.

'Bang!'

A figure shot into the sky like a shooting star and disappeared...
