"...So many Dao Realm experts have died, this old minister still feels guilty in his heart, sorry to Your Majesty, and sorry to Great Yu."
With that said.
Zhan Tianâs eyes turned red.
This scene almost made Liu Sheng burst with laughter.
His eye corners twitched.
This old guy, his acting skills are truly something, crying just like that.
Seems like heâs been preparing all the way here.
"Zhan Tian, I have given you enough face, donât force me to beat you hard."
Emperor Yu directly transmitted his voice, feeling very displeased.
Old fellow, Iâve already settled this matter for you, yet you still disagree, Iâve given you face!
"Your Majesty..."
Zhan Tian did not transmit his voice but looked at Emperor Yu with tear-filled eyes, "This old minister... this old minister will do my utmost, to protect Great Yu, even to death, without hesitation."
"Good, good, good!"
Emperor Yu smiled, saying "good" three times in a row, but he wished he could beat him up thoroughly in his heart.
Old ruffian... havenât even thought about doing anything to him.
Comes in and flips the table at once!
Simply inhuman!
For others, he wouldnât even consider, but not Zhan Tian.
Without him, no one could manage the Three Judicial Departments.
Great Yu would certainly fall into chaos.
This situation he absolutely cannot allow to happen.
Whatâs more, when he takes that step, he cannot be without him.
"There are still too few top experts in Great Yu."
Emperor Yu sighed in his heart, it couldnât compare at all to when his father was in power.
This also led to him having a severe shortage of people he could use now.
Otherwise, Zhan Tian wouldnât be so fearless.
Of course, he understood Zhan Tianâs difficulties, Great Yu is too vast, and Hidden Kill lurks in the shadows, itâs really hard to control such situations.
"However..."
"Except for Duke Qin, everyone else can leave first."
"Yes!"
The others stood up one after another and responded in unison.
Then they slightly saluted before leaving Qixuan Hall.
"Zhan Tian... you really are shameless!"
As the three walked outside, Liu Daoxin looked coldly at him.
"What? What did you say?"
Zhan Tian picked his ears, pretending not to hear clearly, while disdainfully looking at him.
"Hmph!"
Liu Daoxin snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and left first, knowing he couldnât outtalk Zhan Tian.
Heâs just a scoundrel.
If he stayed, who knows what would make him so angry.
"What a person?"
"The older they get, the bigger the temper, unlike me, always having such a good temper!"
Zhan Tianâs voice wasnât small, Liu Daoxin heard it loud and clear, even slowed his steps but still held back his anger, speeding up and walking forward.
"You... after taking advantage, still act innocent, didnât Your Majesty scold you just now?"
"You heard it?"
Zhan Tian was shocked, even the transmission from Your Majesty was heard?
This old man is so strong now!
"What are you thinking!"
Liu Sheng glared at him, speaking nonsense.
Your Majestyâs power, unless intentional, no one in Great Yu could hear his transmission.
"Your attitude changed instantly, anyone could guess that."
One moment resolutely wanting to resign, the next immediately changing attitude.
Apart from Emperor Yu, thereâs no one else in Great Yu who could make him obediently comply.
"Hehe."
Zhan Tian giggled, "Since His Majesty personally said it, how could this old man not respect his face?"
"Such character!"
Liu Sheng scolded, knowing this sly fellow too well.
Heâs just someone who bullies the weak and fears the strong.
But to him, the only strong one in Great Yu is Emperor Yu, so thinking like this, itâs not even embarrassing.
"But I am curious why those Dao Realm experts suddenly all went to Molan Mansion?"
"Arenât they under those princes behind the scenes?"
Although he wasnât sure of the specifics, he had a general understanding.
Several princes sending people to Molan Mansion at the same time, something must be up, doesnât even require thinking.
"Iâve received news that a mysterious force has swallowed all their industries in Molan Mansion."
Zhan Tian didnât hide it from him.
"Mysterious force?"
Liu Sheng murmured softly, then thought of Hidden Kill, his face changed.
"Youâre overthinking, itâs not Hidden Kill."
"According to the information I received, Hidden Kill did it openly in retaliation for the Shadow Guardâs assassination of Huyan Blade last time."
"But I havenât found out about this mysterious force yet."
"Even the Three Judicial Departments canât find it?"
Liu Sheng was shocked, if itâs not Hidden Kill, then what power can the Three Judicial Departments not uncover.
"Dark Moon?"
Even if it is Dark Moon, they know the background.
Unless Dark Moon has quietly supported that power, if so, it must be warned properly.
Merchants should do business properly, not affect Great Yu, some things are beyond their reach.
But Zhan Tian shook his head, "Doesnât seem like it, a Divine Walk Trading Company appeared at Molan Mansion, conflicting with Dark Moon, also a recent appearance, I suspect it has something to do with that force."
Nothing appears out of thin air, appearing together surely means there is a connection.
And thereâs one thing he kept even from Liu Sheng, there is a shadow of the Three Judicial Departments behind it.
Itâs highly likely that Ye Jinghong was also involved, then... a figure popped into his mind, "Is it him?"
For some reason, his instincts told him that this matter was tied to that pesky kid.
Of course, if so, the result could still be acceptable.
As long as itâs not Hidden Kill or other hidden powers, it wonât be much trouble for the Three Judicial Departments.
"Whatâs wrong?"
Liu Sheng looked at him curiously.
"Nothing, letâs go to my place first."
"Okay!"
...
Inside Qixuan Hall.
"Imperial Uncle, youâd better negotiate with Zhou, let this matter stop here, otherwise donât blame me for showing no mercy."
