Above the Galaxy-Chapter 584 - 361: Did This Even Disturb the Phoenix Palace?

Qin Jianyi waved his hand and said with a normal expression, "A threat? No, no, no, this is being frank and sincere."

"Actually, you’re aware, aren’t you, that your current situation is very dangerous?"

"How is it dangerous?" Tang Fei asked curiously. "Who wants to kill me?"

"If you’re like this, we can’t talk," Qin Jianyi said with a wry smile.

How could he answer that question? Could he say who wanted to kill you?

Could he tell Tang Fei that if he continued down this path, the Qin Family would also find a way to get rid of him?

He knew Tang Fei was a tough nut to crack from the first time they had interacted; he had felt it clearly.

Yet, up until now, he still felt he could not keep up with Tang Fei’s pace.

His way of thinking was too erratic, and moreover, it was not the mode of communication of a ’civilized person’ in the normal sense.

Tang Fei, with narrowed eyes, smiled and asked, "Then how would you like to talk?"

"I’ve said it, let’s talk frankly, discuss the actual state of affairs."

"Fine, then let’s talk frankly." Tang Fei looked at Qin Jianyi and asked out loud, "You’re clear why I’m doing all this, right?"

Qin Jianyi nodded and said, "Clear."

"Who had me do these things, you should be clear on that too, right?"

"Clear. But not that clear..." Qin Jianyi said.

Everyone assumed that Tang Fei was acting on someone else’s orders with his frequent strikes against the nine major families, but was this truly from higher-ups?

What if it was his own idea?

He never hesitated to attribute the worst of intentions when guessing at people’s hearts.

Because that is the filthiest corner of the world.

Tang Fei, as if deep in thought, sized up Qin Jianyi and spoke, "It seems you still have your suspicions... You couldn’t possibly think that I have a grudge against the Qin Family and am finding ways to strike back, could you?"

"Perhaps not out of hatred, but out of interest?"

"Where then, is my interest?"

"That’s exactly what I’ve been asking you," Qin Jianyi said, his gaze intense as he once again spoke to Tang Fei. "What do you really want?"

Tang Fei and Qin Jianyi locked eyes, silent.

"You know what I am doing, you also know who told me to do it... and now you want me to cooperate with you, what kind of action is this?"

"I’m sorry, I cannot agree with you. Everything I have is given by the Royal Family and the Empire. I am loyal to the Royal Family, loyal to the Empire. Nobody can make my heart waver in my loyalty to my monarch and country."

Qin Jianyi nodded and said, "It seems we cannot cooperate."

With that, he turned and walked away.

"Wait." Tang Fei called out.

Qin Jianyi turned back and looked at Tang Fei, "Is there anything else?"

"Don’t you think... that you owe us an explanation?"

"Explanation? What explanation?"

"Given your actions, I have reason to suspect that you intend to overthrow the monarchy and are engaging in activities detrimental to the Royal Family and the nation..."

Qin Jianyi’s eyes narrowed with a hint of sternness, but he said cheerfully, "That’s quite a heavy accusation; my slim arms and legs can’t handle that."

"And another thing, bribing a state official... which is me..."

"It appears you’re not planning to let me leave?"

"Of course," Tang Fei said. "Would you mind coming with me to the Monitoring Bureau?"

"What if I don’t?"

"I’m afraid it’s not up to you."

When the talk falls through, more is usually said, but the two of them stopped talking, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became heavy and deadly.

A great battle was on the verge of breaking out. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Seeing the situation on Qin Jianyi’s side, the Flame-Bathed Soldiers nearby, dressed in flame-retardant uniforms, quickly rushed over, encircling Tang Fei and Little Fatty in the middle.

Sky Wolf General Qin Jianyi served in the Flame-Bathed Legion and was also the Corps Commander of a high-tech intelligent corps. Holding a position of great power, his travels were always closely guarded.

Seeing these people trying to harm his elder brother, Little Fatty got anxious, picked up the Skull Hammer, and stood in front of Tang Fei, shouting angrily, "Who dares to come up?"

Qin Jianyi waved his hand and ordered loudly, "All of you, stand down."

"Yes, sir." The captain of the guard didn’t dare to defy the superiors and retreated to one side with his men.

But they didn’t go far, standing nearby and watching Tang Fei and Little Fatty with ferocious eyes.

The evening was the time for leisurely enjoyment of the clouds and listening to the wind.

The arrival of the Star Disc had already drawn the attention of numerous eyes.

Seeing the conflict between Tang Fei and Qin Jianyi, even more onlookers gathered, forming crowds several layers deep; many took out their phones to take pictures and live-stream the event.

This was a battle that had set the entire net ablaze with excitement before it even began.

Qin Jianyi looked at Tang Fei and spoke, "Last time, I lost. How about another match?"

"Okay," Tang Fei nodded. "Another match, another duel. If you win, I’ll let you go. If you lose, you’ll come back with me to the Monitoring Bureau."

"Exactly," Qin Jianyi nodded in agreement to Tang Fei’s wager.

Tang Fei then patted Little Fatty’s shoulder and said, "Let me do this."

"Okay." Little Fatty obediently stepped aside.

Tang Fei was going to fight a duel, and he wouldn’t get in the way.

However, if someone wanted to gang up on them because they were outnumbered...

He would show them that his size and strength were not to be taken lightly.

Qin Jianyi casually plucked a willow branch and held it in his palm.

To show his good intentions, he had come to negotiate with Tang Fei without a weapon.

In their last duel, he had likewise broken a tree branch in half.

He and Tang Fei each took half, using the branches as swords.

And yet, he lost to Tang Fei’s unpredictable "Netherworld Scroll" and its unyielding swordplay.
