The empress also felt that it was true. The generalâs ability was top-notch in the entire Chu Yun Nation. Although he couldnât be considered riding on the clouds, no one in the same realm was a worthy opponent.
The general was very loyal and could be considered a loyal minister. On the contrary, when did the Prime Minister get to know these people? This news made her feel uneasy.
âKeep an eye on the Prime Minister, and let me know if there are any movements.â
âYes, Maâam.â
At this moment, in the Prime Ministerâs residence.
The Prime Minister was all smiles as he served a large table of delicacies to six men and one woman. Among the young men in black was their leader. These people had extraordinary characters, and the Prime Minister greatly valued them.
âEveryone, let me raise a toast!â
âI donât drink, Prime Minister.â The young man in black declined politely.
The smile on the Prime Ministerâs face did not change at all. âSince you donât drink, we can use tea in place of wine. Iâll drink first as a toast.â
After saying this, he finished the wine in his glass in one gulp. Everyone ate and drank for a while. At this moment, the atmosphere was just right to discuss serious matters.
âIf you can help me move that person, I will agree to whatever conditions you propose.â
âThis isnât difficult. We can invite the general over and ambush him in secret.â
âThatâs good! Itâs just that the generalâs spirit art is bizarre. Everyone must be careful.â
...
On the other side, in the Generalâs Estate.
A bug that had been planted projected everything that was happening in the Prime Ministerâs mansion to the general. The general trembled with anger after watching it.
âI knew that this old thing was up to no good. Iâm going to the palace to see the empress and expose his scandal.â
At that moment, a flood dragon flew over. This flood dragon was only three feet long, but it could actually speak human language.
âGeneral, donât forget your current situation.â
The generalâs expression changed slightly when he heard this. He looked around and saw many pairs of eyes staring at him.
âWhat exactly do you want to do?â
âYou donât have to know what weâre going to do. As long as you do as we say, youâll definitely get many benefits.â
âNo problem. You just need to tell me what to do.â
Although the general had agreed, he was very depressed. He actually cooperated with a group of animals. However, as long as he thought that he could get rid of the Prime Minister this time, he still agreed, even though he was being held hostage.
The flood dragon smiled.â The Prime Minister must agree to the Generalâs invitation. When they make their move, we will assist them from the side. The assistant will get rid of the Prime Minister. As for those humans, we will also get rid of them.â
He was extremely excited. As long as he got rid of those humans, no one would be able to stop them. Then, the sacred item would also belong to the mutated beast.
âThen letâs do it.â
âI wish you a happy cooperation in advance.â
Not long after, someone sent an invitation. The invitation letter from the Prime Ministerâs Estate was sent to the Generalâs Estate. The General accepted it without changing his expression and went to the Prime Ministerâs Estate.
It was still raining heavily. The sky was extremely dark, as if it was night.
Ling Yun, who had gone out to gather information, returned. Bai Xiaosa closed his eyes after reading the statement. The group sat in the pavilion and discussed while eating melon seeds.
Ling Feng was the first to speak. âLetâs each report the information we have.
Ling Yun first.â
Ling Yun took a bite of his bread, his face full of satisfaction.
âBig brother, Iâve investigated everything. The structure of this place is very simple. The City Lordâs Mansion is at the top of the hierarchy, followed by financial resources and military power.â
âThe armyâs responsibility is to protect the city, and the jurisdiction belongs to the city lord. As for the financial aspect, it is the heads of the various families.â
âOther than that, the torrential rain brought floods, and many refugees gathered here. This also worsened the security of the city. Burning, killing, and looting began to occur.â
âMoreover, Iâve also found out that the City Lordâs Estate has recently gathered troops, and the various large families are also gathering money. Most of them have plans to leave this place, but the heavy rain wonât stop for a while.â
Ling Feng didnât really care about the structure of the city, but he was interested in the fact that both the City Lord and his family had plans to move out.
The world of the secret realm was very large, and Chu Yun ruled when it came to political power. There was a high possibility that this country held the secrets of the storm.
The secret behind this storm was probably only known to the Chu Yun people. The reason why they were so eager to leave was because they knew a little about it.
Ling Feng raised his head and looked at the buildings on the mountain peak. You should be the capital of this place. They really should go.
âWhat about Brother Bai? Did you find anything?â
Bai Xiaosa shook his head silently.â Iâve looked around. There shouldnât be any Soul Suppressing Steles.â
Ling Feng was a little curious because the Soul Suppressing Stele could play a big role. If no one was here, how did they deal with the ghouls then?
âItâs also possible heâs hiding somewhere,â Ling Feng said.
The Soul Suppressing Stele was handy. It was impossible that it did not exist. It was probably hidden somewhere.
Bai Xiaosa rejected his idea. âI donât think so. This city is very small. Although my eyesight isnât good, I can see more things after breaking through to Tier 5. I shouldnât be mistaken.â
Ling Feng thought for a moment. âOkay, thatâs it for now.â
After discussing for a while, the sky turned dark, and everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
After returning to his room, Ling Feng set his target at the capital. He sent his clones to the capital while he stayed behind. The city was in chaos now, and the city gate was like a decoration. This was the reason why he stayed here.
Presently, more than 200 armored clones directly passed through the wall and went straight ahead.
Outside the city, they could see many disaster victims hiding under the mountain walls. They were drenched and pale, looking hungry and cold.
Helpless, Ling Feng could only sigh, but he had no time to care about this, so he continued to send his clones to the capital.
The city was halfway up the mountain, about a kilometer from the capital. Ling Fengâs clone could be controlled within ten kilometers, so he was not worried that his clone would disappear.
Ling Feng didnât notice anything strange outside the city.
âCould it be that no ghouls have appeared here? Or was there a Soul Suppressing Stele that could envelop the entire mountain?
â1f thatâs the case, then the divine item should be related to this Soul
Suppressing Stele in the Yun Nation.â
Many guesses popped up in Ling Fengâs mind, but none were confirmed. These were just his guesses..
