"Lin Fei, you..."

The faces of the three royal elders changed drastically. Lin Fei's behavior was forcing their hand. They were royal elders! They represented the Great Chang royal family!

"Let him see it!"

At this moment, an old voice suddenly came from the void.

"Huh?"

Lin Fei quickly raised his head, trying to see who was speaking. However, Lin Fei looked around and didn't find anyone. With Lin Fei's current senses, he could detect any movement or person within a hundred meters. But now, someone was clearly speaking, yet Lin Fei couldn't sense anything.

Moreover, it sounded like someone was speaking, but in reality, the voice seemed to be coming directly into his ear.

Upon hearing this voice, the three royal elders were immediately startled. They all knelt down excitedly and respectfully saluted, "Greetings to the Supreme Elder!"

"Supreme Elder?"

Lin Fei's heart stirred. He knew who the owner of this voice was.

There was only one Royal Supreme Elder. That was the Foundation Establishment True Person! Having lived for nearly five hundred years, he was the pillar of the royal family.

The Great Chang Dynasty had been lasting for nine hundred years. The appearance of this Royal Supreme Elder had almost extended its life by another five hundred years.

Thus, the prestige of the Royal Supreme Elder was even slightly higher than that of the Great Chang Founding Emperor.

"Greetings, Supreme Elder!"

Lin Fei also gave a slight salute. He was very respectful to the Foundation Establishment True Person. After all, it was equivalent to a Martial Saint level powerhouse.

"Lin Fei, you may view the Founding Emperor's martial arts secret records. However, the royal family has been facing many difficulties recently.

Paradise Sect's rebel army is attacking cities and seizing territories. The royal family has dispatched several high-level Qi Condensation cultivators, but they still cannot stop them.

I estimate that some immortal sects are directly involved in the rebellion. 'Immortal Slayer Saber' is famous for its ability to slay top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators.

If you go, you will definitely be able to assist the imperial army in suppressing the rebels and quelling the rebellion. Once you succeed, you may return to the royal family and view the martial arts secret records! Furthermore, I can even meet with you and answer your many questions."

The words of the Royal Supreme Elder echoed in Lin Fei's ears, but Lin Fei couldn't find its figure. This must be the means of the Foundation Establishment True Person. Mysterious and unfathomable, impossible to fathom.

Lin Fei couldn't help but ask, "Does the royal family not have top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators or powerful Martial Arts Masters?"

The Royal Supreme Elder replied, "The royal family has top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators, but they have been sent to other places. Currently, there are unstable factors everywhere in Great Chang.

As for powerful Martial Arts Masters, unless they are Martial Arts Grand Masters or have comprehended Martial Dao True Intent, how much chance do you think they have against those immortal sect Qi cultivators?"

Lin Fei understood. The Royal Supreme Elder had said so much, but the message he wanted to convey was just one thing, the royal family was in great difficulty!

At least for now, it was very difficult. Even a small Paradise Sect's rebel army could not be suppressed. Moreover, they had to ask for help from an outsider like Lin Fei, relying on external forces to suppress the rebellion.

"Supreme Elder, I agree! After suppressing the rebellion, I will return to view the martial arts secrets!"

Lin Fei didn't think too long. In fact, he didn't even need to consider this. The royal family had also been helpful to Lin Fei. Moreover, the relationship between the Nine Profound Sect and the royal family was quite good. In addition, the Paradise Sect's rebellion caused the common people to be displaced and suffer. They were truly a chaotic army.

Lin Fei had seen so many refugees along the way. All of them had to flee because of the Paradise Sect. He had no good feelings toward such a chaotic army. Suppressing the rebellion as soon as possible would bring peace to the world sooner.

"Good, you are a straightforward person. Go and ask the emperor for a decree and token for Lin Fei. With it, he can smoothly travel to the imperial army that is suppressing the rebellion."

After the Royal Supreme Elder finished speaking, his voice disappeared. The three royal elders respectfully said, "Yes, Supreme Elder!"

The three elders slowly got up. They glanced at Lin Fei and then smiled, "Master Lin, please wait a moment. We will go to the emperor for a decree right away."

"Thank you, elder."

Lin Fei sat in the Ascending Dragon Chamber. He closed his eyes to rest and quietly waited. Before long, the elder returned. He brought a decree and a token.

Lin Fei took the decree. The general idea was to inform the frontline imperial army generals that Lin Fei was a martial arts expert sent by the emperor and that he would assist the imperial army in suppressing the rebellion. If necessary, they should follow Lin Fei's lead.

"Master Lin, this is just a decree. After all, your speed may be faster. The imperial court will also issue orders to the frontline later, but they may be much slower than you. This decree and token can save you a lot of trouble."

Lin Fei nodded. He directly took the decree and token and put them in his pocket.

"Three elders, I take my leave!"

Lin Fei didn't delay. He just wanted to suppress the rebellion as soon as possible and then come back to view the martial arts secret records.

Lin Fei calculated the time. He had four months until the agreed time with Liu Yibai. It should be enough.

Watching Lin Fei's departing figure, the three elders couldn't help but sigh, "Our Great Chang, how did it come to this? We can't suppress a mere Paradise Sect rebellion and even have to rely on external forces."

"It's because we, the descendants of the royal family, are incompetent. Otherwise, how could the Supreme Elder be so worried?"

"Lin Fei is a martial artist after all. Can he really suppress the rebellion?"

The three elders were all worried. Martial artists were incomparable to Qi cultivators. Qi cultivators wield powerful magical artifacts, capable of suppressing thousands, even tens of thousands of people. Unstoppable on the battlefield. They could even collapse city walls with their magical artifacts.

But martial artists?

How many could they kill with their personal strength?

Although the three elders didn't have high hopes for Lin Fei to quell the rebellion, it was the Supreme Elder's decision. They dared not say more.

Lin Fei returned to the South King Mansion from the palace. Ling Yao hurried over upon hearing the news.

"Lin Fei, how was your visit to the palace? Did the elders agree to let you view the Martial Arts Secret Records?"

Ling Yao asked directly.

Lin Fei shook his head: "At first, the royal elders didn't agree, but then the Royal Supreme Elder sent a message, asking me to go to Chiyang Prefecture to assist the imperial army in suppressing the rebels and putting down the Paradise Sect's rebellion. Upon success, I can return to the Ascending Dragon Chamber and view the Martial Arts Secret Records.

I agreed. I came here to ask the princess for information on the recent movements of the Paradise Sect's rebel forces. What's the situation on the frontline?"

Lin Fei didn't rush to the frontlines without preparation. He needed to understand the situation on the frontlines before making a decision.

"You're going to the frontlines to quell the rebellion?"

Ling Yao's expression changed slightly.

"Lin Fei, the situation on the frontline is complicated. Behind the Paradise Sect's rebellion, there are traces of the Immortal Sects' involvement. Moreover, there's definitely more than one Immortal Sect.

The royal family has sent Qi cultivators and martial artists to the frontlines. Even the high-level Qi Condensation cultivators from the royal family, those elders, have also gone.

However, they still couldn't put down the rebellion and instead suffered a great defeat with heavy casualties. Going into this muddy water at this time is too dangerous."

Ling Yao's voice was filled with urgency even some worry. At this moment, she wasn't concerned about whether the court could quell the rebellion. Instead, she was concerned about Lin Fei's personal safety.

Lin Fei glanced at Ling Yao. Then, with a calm tone, he said lightly, "Without a Foundation Establishment cultivator, who can kill me?"

"Lin Fei, you..."

Ling Yao's mind was shaken. During this period, she didn't know the news about Lin Fei. Why did Lin Fei seem to have changed somehow? It seemed that he had become more confident! His every move seemed to carry an air of disdainful arrogance!

"Senior Sister Ling, you only need to know that without a Foundation Establishment cultivator, no one can harm me. Otherwise, do you think the Supreme Elder's personal request for me to go to the frontlines to quell the rebellion is just casual talk?"

When Lin Fei returned to the South King Mansion, he already had a faint suspicion. The Royal Supreme Elder might have already known about his battle with Liu Yibai in the Hidden Sword Sect.

After all, the Royal Supreme Elder had lived for five hundred years. He was a true antique. In the entire world, there was no one who had lived longer than the Royal Supreme Elder. Not a single one!

With such an ancient existence, what could be kept hidden from the Royal Supreme Elder?

Ling Yao didn't know how strong Lin Fei was now. But she believed in Lin Fei. That was enough.

So, Ling Yao nodded and said solemnly, "The court had once dispatched an army to quell the rebellion, but they were defeated and retreated. This time, the commander of the army is General Li Yuhu. General Li Yuhu has fought battles all his life and has very rich experience.

If you can eliminate some hidden Qi Condensation cultivators or other hidden experts within the Paradise Sect's rebels, then leave the battles to General Li Yuhu, who can certainly quell the rebellion in the shortest possible time!"

Lin Fei nodded, "I understand. The commander of the imperial army is a capable general. Leave the battles to him and the slaying of rebel experts to me. Only in this way can the Paradise Sect's rebellion be quelled!"

Lin Fei asked Ling Yao because he was afraid the commander of the imperial army was incompetent. By that time, even if he killed the experts within the Paradise Sect's rebels, if the commander of the army was incompetent, leading to the army's defeat, there would be trouble.

Now it seemed that the court was not foolish. They had dispatched a steady and experienced general to command the army.

"Alright, Senior Sister Ling, there's no time to lose. I will depart for the frontlines immediately, strive to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, and then return to Chang City."

"Lin Fei, on the battlefield, sabers and swords are blind. Be careful!"

Lin Fei nodded. Then, he took a step forward. In a few leaps, he disappeared without a trace.
