Chapter 2063
How about we move the headquarters of the Zhengui Division to Guangling County?
Even after being sucked into the high sky by the Nine Netherworld Binding Spirit Array, the four Ghost Kings did not give up struggling. They continued to use their tricks and frantically bombarded the array in the sky.
However, no matter how hard they struggled, it was all in vain.
A moment later, their bodies were sucked into the formation.
At the same time, the evil spirits and strange creatures on the ground were also continuously sucked into the Nine Netherworld Binding Spirit Array.
Before long, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, the world became clear, the sun shone brightly, and the sky was calm and peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
The high-ranking members of the Zhengui Division stood on the ground, staring blankly at the huge, black-glowing sphere in the sky.
They had thought that sealing the Ghost Kings would take a lot of effort, but Lu Chen sealed the four Ghost Kings along with all the evil spirits and strange creatures so easily.
That's way too easy!
Moreover, when they sealed away the strange creatures before, they only sealed away their power; the creatures' bodies remained, so they could only bring the creatures' bodies back to the Tower of Suppression to suppress them.
Lu Chen actually absorbed all those strange things into a sphere. Is this still the power of this world?
The group looked at each other, unsure of what to say to express their feelings.
It took them a long time to recover from their shock.
Now that those few demon kings have been sealed away, it's time for them to return to the capital and report back.
But just then, Fan Yaodong suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Yun Yudie on the city wall.
If he wasn't mistaken, Yun Yudie was also one of the Ghost Kings who escaped from the Ghost Suppression Tower. After all, they had only sealed four Ghost Kings, and one Ghost King was still missing.
The four demon kings have been sealed away. What should be done with this female demon king?
Surely the Prince of Zhennan's mansion wouldn't want to keep this female ghost king around, would it?
It should be noted that the strange creatures feed on humans. If the imperial court were to find out that the Prince of Zhennan's mansion was raising a strange creature, and even a strange king at that, the court would definitely take action against the Prince of Zhennan, and might even send troops to attack the Prince of Zhennan's fiefdom.
Thinking about what the Prince of Zhennan had done in Guangling County during this period, Fan Yaodong felt that the Prince of Zhennan had long been planning this and was already prepared to turn against the Great Zhou royal family.
This puts their Zhengui Division in trouble.
The Zhengui Division belongs to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and now the Zhengui Division has witnessed what the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is doing.
To prevent their involvement in raising a treacherous king from being exposed, the Prince of Zhennan's mansion might very well kill them to silence them.
Thinking about this, Fan Yaodong felt nervous.
If the Prince of Zhennan's mansion really intended to kill them to silence them, with that Heavenly Realm expert present, they could probably be killed with a single palm strike.
Seeing Fan Yaodong standing there, looking nervous, Xiong Qingcang and the other Earth Realm experts from the Town of Ghosts Bureau surrounded him and asked, "Commander Fan, what's wrong? Have you discovered something?"
Fan Yaodong whispered a reminder: "Didn't you notice that the Ghost King is still beside Prince Lu?"
Upon hearing this, the others immediately realized that the Ghost King must have also escaped from the Ghost Suppression Division. All the other Ghost Kings had been sealed away, but she was still there.
This suggests that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion intends to raise this strange king. Did they stumble upon the secret of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?
The thought that Zhennan Prince's Mansion had a Heavenly Realm expert backing them up sent chills down Xiong Qingcang and the others' spines.
Fan Yaodong made a quick decision and then said to Xiong Qingcang and the others, "From today onwards, our Zhengui Division belongs to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. Do you have any objections?"
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's words, everyone immediately understood what he meant.
Xiong Qingcang quickly replied, "I have no objection."
Wu Feng said, "What are you saying, Lord Fan? The royal family originally handed over the Zhengui Division to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. We have belonged to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion from the very beginning."
With a Heavenly Realm expert in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, becoming emperor is just a matter of a word for him.
If they still can't see the situation clearly, then the Zhengui Division is not far from destruction.
In any case, their job as the Demon Suppression Division was simply to exorcise demons and monsters; who became emperor was none of their concern. At this moment, Lu Chen had no idea what the people in the Demon Suppression Division were thinking; his gaze was fixed on the sphere in the sky.
Qu He flew to the sphere, caught it with one hand, and then returned to Lu Chen, handing the sphere to him.
Lu Chen glanced at the sphere, sensing the eerie aura emanating from it, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
Unexpectedly, even after sealing away those strange things, the eerie aura emanating from them still lingered.
With this sphere, he could continuously absorb the evil energy and quickly improve his cultivation level.
Upon seeing the sphere in Lu Chen's hand, Yun Yudie, Xu Jingshu, and the other three women immediately became alert.
Now that the several ghost kings and the strange evil spirits present have been sealed, the four women are of no use anymore. It remains to be seen whether Lu Chen will make a move against them.
If Lu Chen were to make a move, they would immediately try to break the sphere and release all the strange and evil spirits that had just been sealed away.
Lu Chen then handed the sphere to the guard beside him and said, "Put this sealing sphere away and take it back to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."
The guard took the sphere and respectfully said, "Yes, Your Highness."
At this time, Fan Yaodong and others also returned to the city wall.
Fan Yaodong said to Lu Chen with a smile, "Your Highness, we did not expect that there would be a Heaven Realm expert in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. We congratulate Your Highness."
At this point, Fan Yaodong tentatively asked, "Your Highness, do you intend to return to the capital?"
"How about we move the headquarters of the Zhengui Division to Guangling County?"
Seeing the fawning smiles on Fan Yaodong and the others' faces, Lu Chen guessed what they were thinking.
He then said with a smile, "Gentlemen, there is no need to worry. Our Zhennan Prince's Mansion is loyal to the emperor and loves the country. We will not do anything that is detrimental to the Great Zhou."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, cold sweat broke out on Fan Yaodong and the others' foreheads once again.
The Zhennan Prince's Mansion not only has the Ghost King, but also a Heavenly Realm expert. They simply don't believe that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has no interest in that position.
Of course, they kept this to themselves; there was no need to say it aloud. Fan Yaodong then said, "We admire the young master's loyalty and righteousness."
Lu Chen then continued, "Now that the strange crisis has been resolved, it's time to deal with the Yellow Springs Cult."
As soon as Lu Chen uttered these words, Fan Yaodong immediately said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, our Zhengui Division will do everything in our power to find the hiding place of the Huangquan Sect."
Their Zhengui Division has just joined the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and they must make some achievements.
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's words, Lu Chen simply said, "Then I'll have to trouble Commander Fan."
In Lu Chen's view, even if the Zhengui Division investigates the Huangquan Cult with all its might, it may not be able to find anything.
Finding the lair of the Yellow Springs Cult will probably not be easy.
He had the Ghost King by his side, who could directly sense eerie auras, but the monsters created by the Yellow Springs Sect that massacred villages did not seem to belong to evil spirits or eerie creatures, and they could not sense the auras of those monsters either.
Lu Chen and his group did not stay in Yunya City for long. After sealing those strange entities, they immediately set off to return to Guangling County.
As soon as Lu Chen returned to Guangling County, he heard from his servants that a force called Tianxuan Palace wanted to discuss with him how to deal with the strange phenomenon.
Although Lu Chen had sealed the four Ghost Kings, he did not have anyone report the matter to Yunya City, nor did he have anyone spread the news of their sealing of the Ghost Kings.
If the imperial court were to learn too early that the strange crisis had been resolved, the court might very well discard them after they had served their purpose.
Of course, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is not afraid of the Great Zhou royal family now; he is only worried that if this matter is made public, it will frighten the Yellow Springs Sect. (End of this chapter)
