374: Start to search the Grand Administrator's Mansion

Guo Feng calling Qin Tian for a spar was also to understand his own situation and to increase his control over his power.

Therefore, he didn't use all his strength, like divine sense, for a full burst.

It was even less likely for him to use a Phantom Spirit Talisman.

However, even a casual strike from him now was extremely terrifying.

After all, the four-fold power of the Three Sovereigns could directly increase his power by 210 times!

Coupled with his Earth Sovereign True Body, which inherently provided an 80-fold increase.

Therefore, his casual attacks had an ultra-high amplification of 290 times.

This terrifying amplification put considerable pressure on Qin Tian, a master at the peak of the ninth-grade eighth-level.

The two exchanged dozens of blows in an instant.

The roaring sounds within the barrier were deafening.

However, outside the barrier, only the people of the Manor could hear it.

After sparring for about twenty minutes, the two stopped.

"Junior Brother, you are truly a monster. Not only has your cultivation realm improved so quickly, but the power of your bursts is also terrifying."

Although Qin Tian only had a simple spar with Guo Feng this time.

He felt that if he was not careful, he would be injured.

Furthermore, he discovered that Guo Feng's combat awareness was extremely strong, and his reactions were incredibly fast.

Attacking, blocking, and various techniques seemed to come to him effortlessly.

Most ninth-grade eighth-level cultivators were no match for him now.

"Haha, thank you, Senior Brother, for sparring with me. It allowed me to gain more control over my power."

Guo Feng cupped his hands, having gained a lot from this session.

He felt even more confident about the upcoming campaign in Guo Wang City.

Afterward, he and Qin Tian exited the arena, chatted for a while, and then returned to their respective areas.

They each rested.

Guo Feng even had a wonderful sleep.

The next day.

Which was October 27th on the Earth calendar.

As soon as he got up, a servant came to announce that the Ninth Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Palace had arrived.

He then got up and went to the front hall of the King Feng Manor.

"This one greets Wind King!"

The Ninth Chief Eunuch was very polite to Guo Feng now, cupped his hands, and said, "This one has brought the imperial decree, the military tally, and the commander's seal for Wind King."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a very luxurious tray appeared in his hand.

On this tray were the imperial decree, which Guo Feng was familiar with, as well as a military tally engraved with a fierce lion and runes.

And a golden seal with flame cloud patterns.

These were the military tally and commander's seal of the Tianyan Lion Army.

The Ninth Chief Eunuch presented them with both hands to Guo Feng, smiling, "Wind King, please accept them."

"Good!"

Guo Feng also smiled. With the military tally and commander's seal, he would truly wield great authority.

With a wave of his hand, he stored these three treasures in his spatial ring.

Now, he had a million elite soldiers and thousands of powerful generals under his command.

His confidence grew even stronger!

The Ninth Chief Eunuch cupped his hands: "Congratulations, Wind King, and felicitations, Wind King."

"Ninth Chief Eunuch, you are too kind. Here are a hundred mid-grade spirit pills. Take them to reward your subordinates!"

Guo Feng said, waving his hand, and a pile of mid-grade spirit pills, packaged in special boxes, flew towards the Ninth Chief Eunuch.

This was also a rule.

When a subordinate congratulates a superior, generally, the superior should bestow rewards.

This was also why these Chief Eunuchs in the Imperial Palace were very wealthy.

It was beneficial to have these people well-managed.

Therefore, those in high positions also had very high expenses.

Guo Feng had plundered many such spoils of war, and using them to manage these people was perfectly fine.

"Thank you, Wind King!"

The Ninth Chief Eunuch smiled. A hundred mid-grade spirit medicines was not a small sum.

He bowed quickly and then said, "Today, Wind King will be raiding the Grand Steward Residence."

"It is rumored that the Grand Manager has a treasure vault hidden in a certain space within the Grand Steward Residence."

"Even a ninth-grade ninth-level expert might not be able to find it."

He paused and then said, "However, I received news that there are three people, each possessing certain information, who can locate the Grand Manager's treasure vault, and then it requires the Grand Manager's key to open it."

"Which three people?"

Guo Feng couldn't help but ask.

The Ninth Chief Eunuch said: "Miss Xufeng, the courtesan of Yicui Tower in Shangdu District, Qu Gong, the butler of the Grand Steward Residence, and Cang Shu, the Grand Manager's twelfth adopted son."

He paused, "As for the key, it should be in the Grand Manager's personal spatial ring."

"Good, Ninth Chief Eunuch, if I obtain this treasure vault, your benefits will certainly not be less."

Guo Feng cupped his hands.

"That's not necessary. This one is merely doing his humble best for Wind King. This one shall take his leave now!"

The Ninth Chief Eunuch said quickly, then retreated.

After the Ninth Chief Eunuch left, Guo Feng had people call Qin Tian and Wang Shengzhi, and also sent servants to inform Marquis Shenwei Qiong Wu and Ming Hao.

Soon after, they took a carriage and arrived at the Grand Steward Residence.

At this moment, the Grand Steward Residence was heavily guarded by the Imperial Capital Guard.

No one inside dared to act presumptuously.

Divine Might Marquis and Ming Hao arrived almost one after another.

Marquis Shenwei Qiong Wu looked at Guo Feng and asked, "Wind King, what should we do now?"

"Lord Divine Might Marquis, first send someone to Shangdu District to summon Miss Xufeng, the courtesan of Yicui Tower. Then, we will go inside and find Qu Gong, the butler, and Cang Shu, the Grand Manager's twelfth adopted son."

Guo Feng immediately ordered.

This time, confiscating the Grand Steward Residence and Eighth Chief Eunuch's Residence was merely to increase his wealth.

After doing these things, he would immediately lead his army south to conquer Duke Guo!

Times were different now.

With his greatly increased strength, Duke Guo was no match for him.

After hearing this, Divine Might Marquis did not hesitate and immediately sent people to apprehend Miss Xufeng, the courtesan of Yicui Tower.

Meanwhile, they directly entered the Grand Steward Residence.

Upon entering, Guo Feng discovered that the Grand Steward Residence covered an extremely vast area, probably four square kilometers.

It was four times the size of his own Manor!

The interior was also built very luxuriously, with many pavilions and towers adorned with gold, crystals, and other precious materials.

Everywhere exuded a surging energy.

There was even a pond where a half-immortal stone was immersed.

It was where the Grand Manager bathed.

The level of luxury made Guo Feng click his tongue in amazement.

Soon after, they had people seal off the Grand Steward Residence, bringing all the personnel for interrogation.

Those who should be imprisoned were imprisoned, and those who should be expelled were expelled.

There were also people specially assigned to record the spoils of this raid.

The so-called spoils of the raid included not only the Grand Manager's wealth but also that of the other people in the Grand Steward Residence.

Everyone had to be thoroughly searched.

Therefore, this was also a very large undertaking.

A huge Grand Steward Residence had over a thousand people, from top to bottom.

The Grand Manager's confidants alone numbered over a hundred.

Guo Feng and a few others sat in the front hall, drinking tea, chatting, and occasionally checking the accounts.

In front of them, two people knelt.

One was Qu Gong, the butler of the Grand Steward Residence.

The other was Cang Shu.

Since Miss Xufeng, the courtesan, had not yet arrived, Guo Feng did not ask much but picked up the accounts to read.

By this time, the confiscated immortal stone had already exceeded one hundred million.

This was an extremely large sum.

There were also various spirit artifacts, magical treasures, pills, valuable ornaments, famous calligraphy and paintings, etc.

There were also some property deeds and land deeds.

Guo Feng roughly calculated that the total value amounted to two to three hundred million immortal stone.

Just then, a group of people walked in quickly.

"Lord Divine Might Marquis, we were a step late. Xufeng has already been taken away by the Young Master of the Imperial Relative's Manor!"

One of them, upon entering, immediately shouted to Divine Might Marquis.

At the same time, another man, with a cold sneer, also walked in: "Wind King, how about we talk business?"

This person resembled the Imperial Relative somewhat.

Moreover, his aura was extremely strong.

He was actually a ninth-grade seventh-level cultivator!

Powerful in strength and noble in status, he was a true Imperial Relative, and thus, he appeared extremely arrogant!

As if he didn't put Guo Feng in his eyes at all.

Divine Might Marquis quickly reminded from the side: "Wind King, this is Zhao Yushu, the son of the Imperial Relative."
