A Thousand Years of Immortal Dreams

The minor incident did not affect the progress of the competition.

Moreover, with such generous rewards, the four major sects and the royal family have all taken it very seriously.

The competition is divided into two levels: Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage.

Disciples from the five major forces took turns competing, and the top 100 were quickly determined.

At this moment, especially within the Zhao royal family.

One of the Qi Refining stage disciples was extremely arrogant.

They completely crushed the disciples of the four major sects.

"Is this all the four major sects are capable of? Below the Foundation Establishment stage, if I claim to be second, who dares to call themselves first?"

Faced with this person's mockery, the disciples of the four major sects could only lower their heads and remain silent.

Just then, this person suddenly said to Zhao Xiaohe:

"Your Majesty, I have heard that my good brother Cao Wang is also cultivating in the Blissful Sect. I wonder if he is here?"

When his entire family was wiped out, our Changxing Marquis's Mansion was responsible for confiscating their property.

At that time, millions of spirit stones and countless rare and precious materials were all collected into the national treasury through my hands.

Especially the women of the Cao family, they were incredibly beautiful.

"Zhou Feiyu, you must not speak recklessly before His Majesty."

Chu Feihu immediately stepped forward and reprimanded him.

"It's alright, what he said is all true."

Zhao Xiaohe waved his hand and said, then looked at Su Meiniang.

"Sect Leader Su may not know, but the person I exchanged for a million spirit stones was a descendant of the Duke of Cao's family, who plotted a rebellion and defied authority back then."

"That's a real shame."

Su Meiniang said.

"According to the message from the enforcement team, this person jumped into the underground river out of fear of being caught by you, and has not been heard from since."

"Sect Leader Su, I think you just don't want to pay, do you?"

Zhou Feiyu snorted coldly, then looked at everyone.

"Cao Wang, you coward! I know you're watching. If you've got the guts, step forward!"

Don't you want revenge?

I'm standing right here today, so if you've got the guts, step forward.

You probably have no idea what kind of treatment the surviving women received when your entire family was wiped out.

Zhou Feiyu chuckled lewdly as he finished speaking.

"I took good care of each of them."

I remember that among those people were your cousins, as well as your maternal cousins.

And then there are your aunts and uncles, several hundred people in total.

Upon hearing this, the people from the four major sects immediately started pointing and cursing at Zhou Feiyu.

"This guy is shameless. He'd even say something like this just to get people to show up."

"The hatred of wiping out an entire family is irreconcilable. If I were Cao Wang, I would definitely come out and skin him alive."

"You can tolerate something like this? Is Cao Wang a coward?"

......

......

"You're asking for it!"

At that moment, Qin Shuang could no longer bear it and, ignoring Leng Yue's attempts to stop her, jumped straight onto the stage.

At this moment, she was filled with resentment towards the entire Zhao royal family because of Cao Wang's disappearance.

Especially Zhou Feiyu.

They actually dared to insult Cao Wang's family so wantonly in front of so many people.

When Zhou Feiyu saw someone jump out, his eyes lit up.

He thought it was Cao Wang, but upon closer inspection, he found it was actually a woman.

"What? Do you know Cao Wang? Are you trying to stand up for him?"

Zhou Feiyu looked at Qin Shuang with great interest.

Those eyes provocatively scanned Qin Shuang from head to toe, while she also made gestures like licking her lips and winking.

"I kill you!"

Qin Shuang could no longer hold back and rushed forward after drawing her short sword.

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Zhou Feiyu shook his head and said.

"Someone who doesn't even have a magic weapon dares to challenge me? Is the Blissful Sect out of talent?"

As he said this, he didn't forget to insult and provoke the entire Blissful Sect once again.

The next second, Qin Shuang was sent flying backward. She couldn't even last three moves against Zhou Feiyu.

"This kind of trash dares to challenge me?"

Zhou Feiyu smiled contemptuously and slowly withdrew the mid-grade magic weapon longsword from his hand.

"Who else?"

Zhou Feiyu shouted loudly.

"Since no one is challenging, I, Zhou Feiyu, will gladly accept this top prize for the Qi Refining stage."

After saying that, he walked straight toward the podium.

The top prize for the Qi Refining stage is a whopping 500,000 spirit stones, plus a high-grade magic weapon.

This is why Zhao Xiaohe used himself as bait to lure the other four major sects into offering huge rewards.

He wanted the Zhao royal family to take all the rewards.

Just as everyone was watching in disbelief, Zhou Feiyu won the top prize in the Qi Refining stage.

A sudden commotion arose in the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, the crowd automatically dispersed, making way for a main road.

At the end of the road, a young man dressed in the outer disciple's robes of the Blissful Sect stood there, his body straight as a pine tree, head held high and chest out.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the young man slowly walked towards the high platform step by step.

"It's Cao Wang. He actually stepped forward."

"Is he the Cao Wang that the King of Zhao wanted to exchange for one million spirit stones? I never expected that he would be the sole heir of the Cao State Duke's Mansion in Zhao."

"If he steps forward now, isn't he doomed? Isn't he just walking into a trap?"

"A moment of patience brings peace, but now that he's stepped forward, he has no way out. If the Emperor of Zhao forcibly takes him away, even the Sect Master of the Blissful Sect probably can't stop him, right?"

"If it were me, I definitely wouldn't come out. I'll wait until I'm stronger before taking revenge."

……

……

As people discussed and pointed at him, Cao Wang gradually walked onto the arena.

Then he came to Qin Shuang, slowly squatted down, and helped her up.

"I thought... I thought you were really gone, really gone, and would never leave me again."

"Fool, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Cao Wang helped Qin Shuang down from the arena, and then stood on the arena again.

Seeing that Zhou Feiyu was about to get the reward, he glared at him with murderous intent.

"I heard you were looking for me."

"You little brat..."

Zhou Feiyu looked Cao Wang up and down, trying to see a trace of his former self in him.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, revealing an excited expression.

"It really is you, Cao Wang."

Zhou Feiyu's tone shifted from anticipation and excitement to gritted teeth and fury.

"You've finally gotten what you deserve!"

Cao Wang looked at Zhou Feiyu with a mocking expression, memories of him surfacing in his mind.

"Zhou Feiyu, the guy who used to follow me around calling me 'Daddy' when we were kids, trying to fit into our circle, I never imagined you'd grow up so big."

"Shut up! You piece of trash!"

Dead memories suddenly attacked him.

Zhou Feiyu's memory was immediately pulled back to his childhood.

At that time, although their family was a marquis, Cao Wang and his family were dukes.

In order to fit into their circle, Zhou Feiyu always followed them around, and even when asked to bark like a dog or call them "Daddy," he had no problem with it.

At this moment, Cao Wang brought up these shameful memories, and Zhou Feiyu immediately became furious, as if he had stepped on someone's tail.

"Fine, fine, Cao Wang, I didn't expect you to have such guts. After all that scolding, you've finally come out. If you had just kept hiding like this, you might have managed to survive. But since you've stepped forward, you won't be leaving here alive today."

The commotion here immediately attracted the attention of the important figures on the altar.

Hua Wujiu was the first to recognize Cao Wang, and immediately stood up, exclaiming in disbelief.

"Cao Wang didn't die, and he even came back."
