Qin Wu casually tossed Cheng Feng's body aside, his brows furrowed deeply.

This person was none other than Cheng Feng, the seventh elder of the Demonic Flame Sect, who came here to investigate the background of the Fairness System.

However, upon noticing the tremendous changes in the Qin State and his own intention to rebel against the Demonic Flame Sect, the Demon Flame Sect members rushed to the capital, intending to suppress him in one fell swoop.

However, the other party did not expect that he had already cooperated with the Supreme Profound Sect, and ultimately ended up being captured.

Although he wanted to kill the other party right now, he also knew that this was not the right time to kill Cheng Feng.

If we take the other's life now and extinguish the soul lamp, the Demonic Flame Sect will immediately notice something is wrong.

It would be better to spare his life for now, which would buy some time to prepare for the coming storm.

Qin Wu stared at Cheng Feng, who was barely breathing on the ground, his brows furrowed, his heart filled with anxiety.

Now that things have come to this, how can we break this deadlock?

For a moment, he couldn't think of a good solution.

He turned to look at Xiao Li, bowed respectfully, and spoke in a deferential tone:

"Senior, this fiend cannot be killed yet. I implore you to seal him away."

He paused slightly, then stepped forward and earnestly said:

"The Demonic Flame Sect will likely soon discover Cheng Feng's disappearance and may attack at any time."

I urge you, senior, to inform the Supreme Profound Sect to send cultivators to support our country in advance and help us fight against the Demonic Flame Sect!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li waved his hand, his tone indifferent:

"You don't need to tell me about these mundane matters. Just contact Xiao Teng directly, and he will handle it."

After saying that, he Hand Seals, and streams of Great Dao Runes, carrying immense sealing power, flowed into Cheng Feng's body like streaks of light.

In an instant, Cheng Feng's spiritual power and Primordial Spirit were completely sealed.

Having accomplished this, Xiao Li's figure flickered, transforming into a streak of light and vanishing from the spot in an instant, leaving only Qin Wu and the sealed Cheng Feng behind.

Qin Wu said in a deep voice, "Men! Lock this man up and keep him under strict guard. No one is allowed to have contact with him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two Secret Guard stepped forward, lifted the sealed Cheng Feng, and quickly retreated.

Immediately afterwards, he turned to the newly arrived eunuch and gave the order:

"Immediately issue an imperial decree summoning all civil and military officials to the Golden Palace for a meeting. There must be no delay!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The eunuch bowed, accepted the order, and hurriedly withdrew.

Qin Wu used his divine sense to enter the chat window, opened the chat box with Xiao Teng, and quickly sent a message:

"Senior Xiao, just now, the seventh elder of the Demonic Flame Sect, Cheng Feng, launched a Cheng Feng attack on the capital. Fortunately, with your help, Senior Xiao, he has now been suppressed."

The Demonic Flame Sect will certainly not let this go easily, and will likely attack soon. I urge your sect to dispatch cultivators to our aid and help us defend against the enemy!

On the other side, the moment Xiao Teng saw the message, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he was overjoyed.

Very good!

I can start live streaming again to earn Energy Points!

Over the past decade or so, the Supreme Profound Sect has gained a large number of Energy Points by live-streaming sect battles.

Furthermore, by utilizing the Fairness System to enhance his cultivation, his overall strength advanced by leaps and bounds, and he repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on the Demonic Flame Sect.

For the past three years, the Demonic Flame Sect has not dared to launch a major offensive or engage in large-scale battles, resulting in no opportunity to earn Energy Points.

Now that another major battle has broken out, it's the perfect time to earn Energy Points.

The live broadcast of the entire battle against the Demonic Flame Sect will surely attract countless system hosts to watch and donate.

He immediately replied, "I am aware of this matter, and we will send people to provide support immediately!"

Upon seeing Xiao Teng's reply, Qin Wu's tense mind finally relaxed slightly.

With such a powerful ally as the Supreme Profound Sect, the Qin State no longer needs to face the wrath of the Demonic Flame Sect alone; at least it can hold out for a while and avoid collapse in an instant.

On the streets of the capital, upon seeing Cheng Feng captured, the hearts of the entire city, which had been in their throats, finally settled, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

A cacophony of voices erupted throughout the streets and alleys.

"Great! That devil has finally been caught! His imposing aura was so overwhelming, I thought I was going to die here today."

"Absolutely! That demon's aura was terrifying; he probably has the cultivation of the Void Return Realm, right?"

"I didn't expect them to be captured so quickly. It seems His Majesty was well-prepared. I just wonder where those experts came from."

"Who cares where this expert came from, as long as he can protect us! But who exactly is this fiend? Why would he suddenly attack the capital?"

"In my opinion, they are most likely from the Demonic Flame Sect! Apart from them, our Qin State hasn't offended any other forces."

"It must be the Demonic Flame Sect! But what can we do? How can our Qin State possibly defeat them? A direct confrontation would be suicide!"

"How about... we just flee Qin State? That fiend just said he wanted to massacre the entire city; staying here will only lead to disaster!"

"Escape? That would mean leaving our homes! Can't we learn from the Xin State and recruit experts to turn the tables and destroy the Demonic Flame Sect? That way we can live a peaceful life."

"Recruiting experts isn't that easy. It would cost a massive amount of Energy Points! The imperial court simply can't afford that."

I heard that the Xin State raised enough money to hire a master through nationwide donations.

"Then let's donate too! As long as the imperial court can bring in experts to destroy the Demonic Flame Sect, what are a few Energy Points? Spending money to buy peace is worth it!"

"Yes! I agree! Energy Points can be earned back, but if you lose your life, you lose everything! Paying to avoid disaster is a worthwhile deal!"

The voices of agreement grew louder and louder, with many people expressing their willingness to donate Energy Points to recruit experts to destroy the Demonic Flame Sect.

Some people even uploaded the video they had just recorded to TikTok), which instantly caused a sensation.

The people of Qin State, in particular, deeply felt the crisis, and some even considered leaving the Qin State.

However, some people wanted to donate Energy Points so that the imperial court could recruit experts to completely eradicate the Demonic Flame Sect, a major threat.

At this moment, inside the Golden Palace, a heavy atmosphere weighed heavily on everyone's hearts, like a lead weight.

Qin Wu sat upright on the dragon throne, his gaze sweeping over the civil and military officials below, whose expressions were solemn and tinged with panic. His tone was calm:

"You ministers must have all witnessed the events that just happened in the capital."

The attacker was Cheng Feng, an elder of the Demonic Flame Sect. This ruthless and domineering man had just tried to massacre the entire city.

Of course, you can run away, but you will lose your government salary and have to work hard for Energy Points. Your future achievements may not be as high as if you stayed in Qin State.

And don't harbor any illusions; even if you surrender, they will never let you go.

At that time, you will need to unbind the Fairness System, abolish your cultivation, and return to the state of being at the mercy of others as before.

Would you want to go through that again?

These words struck like a thunderbolt, instantly erasing the fear from the faces of the civil and military officials and igniting a raging fire in their hearts.

The life they enjoy today is something they could never have dreamed of, even if they had held high positions in the past.

"Absolutely not!"

A military general suddenly stepped forward, his voice booming like thunder, "If we want to return to that hopeless life of the past, we might as well fight to the death and end it all quickly!"

"That's right!"

Some within the civil service echoed this sentiment, their eyes filled with unwavering resolve.

"Now that we have Fairness System, we eat spirit rice and spirit beast meat every day, and we even have the opportunity to cultivate Longevity. How can we go back to A Mortal at the mercy of the Demonic Flame Sect?"

"That despicable Demonic Flame Sect dared to try and cut off my path to Longevity! This enmity is irreconcilable! I will fight them to the bitter end!"

"I am willing to donate all my Energy Points to recruit top experts to destroy the Demonic Flame Sect! Anyone who tries to cut off my path to Longevity will face my wrath to the death!"

The angry shouts echoed within the Golden Palace, and the initial fear had long since transformed into a resolute determination to fight against a common enemy.
