The battle in the training field caused a sensation in the world. Ten days later, not only was it unknown whether the flying phoenix was dead or alive, but even the other great general of the East Mo State, Hong Fu, had disappeared with the flying phoenix.
The four countries, except for East Mo, were all excited and happy. Fei Feng was heavily injured and Hong Fu was nowhere to be found. This was the heaviest blow to East Mo. The Three Kingdoms were once again restless.
In the Imperial Palace of the Eastern Mo Kingdom, the Emperor was furious at the group of officials standing below."A bunch of trash! It had been so long, but he still couldn't find Fei Feng and Hong Fu's whereabouts?!”
The ministers were all trembling in fear. They did not dare to raise their heads or even breathe loudly. The entire hall was enveloped in a pressing silence. Only the Emperor's soaring anger echoed in the hall.
The Emperor thought for a moment, and his expression became even more gloomy. He could not help but say angrily,"Did you know? Ever since Fei Feng and Hong Fu served our country, they had never lost a single battle. The two of them and Mo Ni are talents that I, Dong Mo, cannot lack to unify the world. Now, two of the three of them have actually disappeared without a trace!”
Standing at the front of the officials, Imperial Advisor Tie was sweating profusely. He was panicking. In fact, ever since Fei Feng and Hong Fu disappeared, he was the one who was the most worried. On one hand, he had to bear the Emperor's wrath from the Nine Heavens, and on the other hand, he was extremely vexed at losing his proud disciple, Fei Feng.
Among the officials of the court, he and Shen Yue were the leaders. Even though the two of them appeared to be friendly and admired each other, they were secretly fighting each other all the time. They both hoped that their power in East Mo could cover the sky with one hand.
Among them, Shen Yue had outstanding military achievements, deep qualifications, and was deeply loved by the soldiers. His son, Shen Zhong, was the most trusted confidant of the Emperor, so the Emperor respected him very much.
Although Priest Tie was the national master and the head of the officials, his Iron Sword Sect also seemed to be full of talents. However, Priest Tie knew that the Emperor was not completely unwary of him. Although this was due to the suspicion of every Emperor, the real reason was probably because Shen Zhong was always by the Emperor's side.
Priest Tie had wanted to marry his disciple, Consort Kuang Yu, to Shen Zhong in hopes of a marriage alliance, in order to reduce the suspicions of Shen Yue and his son. By chance, the Ice and Fire Phoenix had brought Long Fei back. Priest Tie saw that Long Fei had unparalleled talent and that his martial arts were also top-notch among the younger generation, so he naturally recruited him as a disciple.
He had never expected that Long Fei would kill General Qi Su in the first battle and turn the tide of the world. After that, he attacked five cities and won every battle, contributing greatly to the country. The name of the Flying Phoenix was known throughout the world and all four countries knew about it.
This was naturally good news for Tie Dao, who had suffered many blows in the struggle with Shen Yue and his son. The Emperor was very dependent on the Great General Fei Feng, so naturally, his master was also greatly rewarded by the Emperor. Every time he met Shen Yue, he would see his face getting uglier and uglier. Although Priest Tie's expression remained unchanged, he felt extremely carefree.
But now, not only was Long Fei seriously injured, but he also had no idea where he had gone with Hong Fu. The Emperor's anger was mostly vented on him. It was true that accompanying the Emperor was like accompanying a tiger. Looking at Shen Yue and his son's expressions, although they also looked sad on the surface, they were definitely overjoyed in their hearts.
Priest Tie thought for a moment and wiped the cold sweat off his face. He stepped forward and said,"Emperor, please don't worry. Fei Feng and Hong Fu are battle-hardened people. Their martial arts and strategies are extremely high, so naturally nothing will happen. Now, he might have just been delayed by something!”
Hearing Priest Tie's words, the Emperor's anger lessened a little. He walked up and down on the platform and suddenly stopped. His expression softened, but his voice was still as cold as ice.
"I hope it's as Imperial Preceptor said. Fei Feng and Hong Fu were safe and sound. Humph! Do you know that since ancient times, there has been a saying: "A thousand troops are easy to come by, but good generals are hard to come by." Moreover, they were two kings among generals. No matter what, he had to find them as soon as possible. Now, not only are the three kingdoms restless, even our soldiers are panicking. If this went on, wouldn't the situation that they had fought so hard to win fall in one day?!!!”
As the ministers knelt down, the Emperor flicked his sleeves and left. Priest Tie sighed in his heart. Just as he was about to leave, Shen Yue appeared in front of him. He had a look of pity on his face."Imperial Preceptor, it's really the country's misfortune. Your disciple is still young and is at the time of displaying his ambitions. He actually fell just like that. It's really the country's misfortune! I am truly heartbroken."
Priest Tie suppressed the anger and disdain in his heart and said with a faint smile,"Human life is free and determined by the heavens. If my disciple really deserves to die, then there's nothing I can do. General, I still have something to do at home. I'll take my leave first!”
Shen Yue gradually revealed a smile as he watched Priest Tie leave.
