The Dominance of the Son-in-Law: My Wealthy and Beautiful Wife-Chapter 1119 1119: Hand Over the Stone!

"..."
Qin Feng was utterly baffled.
Just a moment ago, he was thinking that with the help of this knowledgeable old gentleman, it would be like adding wings to a tiger, but now the old man looks as clueless as Jiang Tiefeng...
"Ahem, you all clean up first, I'm heading to Snow Gate."
Qin Feng couldn't be bothered to explain further.
He summoned the Divine Bird Fire Cloud, and then flew into the sky.
...
Snow Gate.
It was located in the depths of Changbai Mountain to the east, at the top of a relatively flat mountain.
This place is quite far north, with a high altitude.
The mountain top is covered in snow all year round.
At this moment.
It was utter chaos here.
The top of the mountain was flooded with people!
Tens of thousands of people breached the walls of Snow Gate, surrounded the buildings, and gathered in the center of a courtyard, shouting loudly.
"Hand over the stone!!"
"Hand over the stone!!"
"Hand over the stone!!"
"..."
The ones being surrounded were Ning Tingxue and the only six disciples left in Snow Gate!
From the air, Qin Feng could hear their shouts from afar and urged Fire Cloud to fly faster in that direction.
Just then.
A strong aura suddenly surged towards them!
Looking down.
It turned out that on a peak near the top of Snow Gate, Old Lady Liang was looking up at him.
Qin Feng understood the meaning of that aura, to descend!
Old Lady Liang.
The servant of the Purple Cloud Immortal.
Since Qin Feng obtained the Wood Immortal Power in Qinling, he hadn't met Old Lady Liang.
She was responsible for selecting inheritors of immortal power in the Five Great Holy Lands.
Quickly.
Qin Feng landed in front of Old Lady Liang.
Old Lady Liang looked very displeased and said to Qin Feng, "Do you realize your mistake?"
"What mistake?" Qin Feng retorted.
Old Lady Liang continued, "I've already told you not to get involved in matters of other Holy Lands, why didn't you listen?"
Back then.
Qin Feng, after conquering Qinling, intended to assist Xinghua Gully at Tianshan.
But was stopped by Old Lady Liang.
Old Lady Liang did not want him to interfere, saying it would disrupt the rules of the competition for the first place, even if Xinghua Gully won with Qin Feng's help, she could not pass the immortal power to Xinghua Gully.
"You exterminated Dabei Temple, slaughtered Juanlong Villa, and washed White Sun Sect in blood, wiping out the three most promising sects for obtaining the immortal power inheritance in Changbai Mountain. Do you think you can acquire the immortal power inheritance again? I'm telling you, the immortal power of Lady Immortal must be passed down to five people, and you shall not monopolize it!"
Old Lady Liang was very dissatisfied with his actions.
She usually observed the competition among the Five Great Holy Lands, and only arrived in Changbai Mountain last night to find out about the great events that had taken place in the past few days.
All three major forces were annihilated by Qin Feng.
She felt Qin Feng intended to compete for the immortal power inheritance of Changbai Mountain Holy Land.
"No, I only wanted to save people and seek revenge, my friend's life was at stake. I wiped out Dabei Temple to borrow the items she needed, I destroyed Juanlong Villa because they wanted to kill my friend, and I blood-washed White Sun Sect for the same reason. I did not act for immortal power, but for my friend!"
Qin Feng said calmly.
"Do you realize that this is breaking the rules!"
Old Lady Liang exclaimed.
"What rules have I broken? The rules for selecting inheritors? I'm sorry, but these rules are far less important than my friend's life. Should I protect the rules and let my friend die? That's impossible."
Qin Feng declared.
"..."
Old Lady Liang was at a loss for words, unsure how to refute him.
Indeed!
These rules are only for selecting the contenders for the immortal power inheritance.
They do not have absolute authority over him.
With a long sigh, Old Lady Liang waved her hand, saying, "Fine, fine! What's done is done, I won't hold you accountable anymore. Now that your friend has been saved, I also hope—or rather, I must prevent—you from further affecting Changbai Mountain."
"Just this morning, I dropped a stone, announcing that whoever can possess that stone will be the inheritor of the immortal power."
"This is meant to expedite the selection of an inheritor in Changbai Mountain."
"Therefore, you must not interfere anymore. Even if you try, I will stop you!"
"..."
After she finished speaking, Qin Feng suddenly realized.
From afar, he heard the shouts from the top of another mountain, demanding Ning Tingxue hand over the stone. It turned out this stone was the token of the new selection rule set by Old Lady Liang.
He also understood why those who had allied with Snow Gate rebelled again after just one night.
Old Lady Liang was secretly orchestrating it all!
"What if I insist on going?"
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.
Old Lady Liang's lips curved into a smile, "Do you think you can get past me?"
As she spoke.
Her body emitted an intangible aura.
Qin Feng's brow furrowed, and his spirit trembled.
This aura was invisible and untouchable, yet he could clearly feel its existence and strength!
Like an invisible net, it felt like he was trapped, unable to go anywhere.
"So strong..."
He couldn't help but marvel.
He hadn't expected that even as the servant of the Purple Cloud Immortal, she possessed such formidable power.
Forcing through would certainly be no easy task.
After a brief consideration, Qin Feng simply sat down abruptly, took out a token, handed it to Fire Cloud, and said, "Tell my friend I might be late."
Chirp chirp!
Fire Cloud took the token, spread its wings, and flew toward the peak of the opposite mountain where Snow Gate was located.
Old Lady Liang chuckled at this moment, "I plan to stay here today, so your 'late' will probably mean you can't get through."
"It's cold here, I don't believe you can stay here forever."
Qin Feng sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and calmed himself.
Old Lady Liang, unsure of his intents, also sat down to rest, all the while keeping a close watch on him, saying, "Don't think you can sneak over while I'm not looking..."
Qin Feng paid her no heed and continued to remain composed.
...
New base of the Northern Border Army.
Commander Yang and Weng Zhiru, among others, kept the entire corps on high alert, intently scrutinizing their surroundings.
Weng Zhiru, utterly exhausted, with bloodshot eyes and worn-out body, grumbled, "Old Yang, how about we take shifts for the watch? It's another sleepless night, it's unbearable..."
"It's not just hard for you, almost all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers can barely hold on..."
Commander Yang was equally distressed.
Stretching his body.
He could feel his bones cracking, too stiff!
After two or three days of constant alertness, there hadn't been any sleep, not even a nap or a lapse in concentration; Elder Fei wouldn't allow it, requiring constant vigilance!
Anyone would find it unbearable.
Many soldiers, due to prolonged tension, couldn't hold on and fainted...
"I want to arrange shifts, but Elder Fei won't allow it."
Commander Yang said, exasperated.
With panda eyes, Elder Fei reprimanded them, "Don't you understand I'm doing this for your own good? That white-haired old man is from the Upper Realm, if he comes, you might be slaughtered before you even wake up! Dealing with someone of his level requires constant vigilance!"
