Impotent Rage
Chapter 199 Impotent Rage
After being tied up, the general, like the soldiers before him, tried to break free. He originally thought that with his cultivation as a fourth-rank martial artist, he could easily break free from the thin branches, but no matter how much he struggled, the thin branches did not budge.
He looked around at his colleagues in astonishment, only to realize that it wasn't that his colleagues were incompetent, but that these seemingly small branches were actually more resilient than divine weapons.
No wonder none of these colleagues could break free once they were tied up.
After experiencing it firsthand, I realized it's no wonder these colleagues couldn't break free either; they themselves hadn't escaped it either.
Alright, now there's no need to worry about choosing or not choosing. Now we just have to see when His Majesty comes to rescue them.
The general, quite nonchalantly, simply lay down.
Meanwhile, the spies watching from the sidelines had plenty to do.
This is the capital of the Great Feng Kingdom! In the capital, thousands of Great Feng soldiers are either frozen or tied up. If this is not handled properly, Great Feng will lose all face.
This matter involves high-ranking officials, and even two high-ranking officials. On one hand, there's Emperor Yuanjing's reputation, and on the other hand, there are two high-ranking officials. This is quite troublesome.
They needed to quickly relay the news from here to the forces behind them.
In an instant, all sorts of communication methods, such as sending messages by carrier pigeon, sending messages by flying sword, and transmitting messages by spirit talisman, were used one by one. There was no way that people couldn't do it, only a method of communication that no one could think of.
The various factions that received the news did not rush to take any action. Everyone was waiting to see how Emperor Yuanjing in the palace would handle the situation and whether he could bring down this group of madmen.
If not, then the world will descend into chaos. Both within and outside the Great Feng Dynasty, action will be necessary.
As for Emperor Yuanjing's original plan to send the night watchman to deal with this group of people, Wei Yuan directly blocked him.
Wei Yuan used the excuse that the officials were all busy, thus thwarting Emperor Yuanjing's plans.
Meanwhile, inside the palace, Emperor Yuanjing smashed the porcelain vase beside him to pieces in a fit of rage.
This is the second time; the men he sent out have been turned away both times.
And he had no other choice.
Mu Nanzhi and her group were clearly not taking him seriously, but he could only watch helplessly.
Putting everything else aside, those two people who managed to wipe out his thousands of troops were enough to give him a headache.
Those two were clearly high-level cultivators. It wasn't that Da Feng didn't have high-level cultivators, but those who could cultivate to the high level were already leaders of a major power in Da Feng, and were not people that Emperor Yuan Jing could easily order around.
Therefore, Emperor Yuanjing was helpless against these two high-level cultivators and Mu Nanzhi's group.
His own hidden strength was only so-so; even if he took action himself, he might not be able to defeat those two young girls.
How wonderful it would be if such a person could be used by him? Emperor Yuanjing could only fantasize about it in his heart.
Even though he was the emperor of the Great Feng Dynasty, those high-ranking experts still ignored him, which made him very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Although the emperor is nominally in charge of the land of Da Feng, several factions actually wield enormous influence and can easily affect the thoughts of the person sitting on the dragon throne.
For example, the Imperial Preceptor, the Supervisor, the Night Watchman, and the Yunlu Academy could all easily influence Emperor Yuanjing's attitude.
They rarely speak, but once they do, Emperor Yuanjing has to take their attitude seriously.
Emperor Yuanjing remained silent. He couldn't see through any of the people Mu Nanzhi had brought. Now that only Lin Feng, Bingdi, and Xiao Yao had made their move, how could he be sure that there wouldn't be any other experts among the remaining people?
He was at his wit's end. Mu Nanzhi was related to his future cultivation plans, so of course he wanted to get her back, but he couldn't do anything about these people who appeared out of nowhere.
Originally, he only wanted to bring Mu Nanzhi back and find out what Luo Yuheng was up to through her, but now he found that Luo Yuheng was getting further and further away, and it seemed that Mu Nanzhi was also going to be lost.
Now that he can no longer summon Mu Nanzhi, what will happen to his cultivation?
Throughout the entire ordeal, Lin Feng and his group were only facing the side of Emperor Yuanjing. The night watchman and Yunlu Academy remained silent, ignoring everything.
Emperor Yuanjing thought it over and over, but he was still unwilling to give up. If he let Mu Nanzhi leave, he would suffer a great loss.
So he chose a different approach. "I can't stop Mu Nanzhi from going with those mysterious people, but the Mu family is still here."
The Mu family of Jiangnan was a well-known family in the area, and their reputation grew even more after Mu Nanzhi was born.
If we have Mu Nanzhi's family in our hands, I don't believe she won't submit.
After making up his mind, Emperor Yuanjing immediately sent someone to contact the Mu family in Jiangnan.
Many group members could detect his subtle actions with their divine sense, but none of them paid any attention to them.
Whether it's Emperor Yuanjing or Emperor Zhende, they're all just clowns jumping around. If they go too far, just slap them.
Even Richard's water mirror clearly reflected Emperor Yuanjing's actions.
"Alas, he was also influenced by the Black Lotus and suffered a qi deviation. I already have a plan to deal with him, and I hope that you fellow Daoists can spare his life for now."
The supervisor, fearing that Richard and his men might slap Emperor Yuanjing to death, quickly addressed them.
"Oh? Is the method of handling that the supervisor mentioned him?" Richard said, while projecting Xu Qi'an's current location using the Water Mirror Technique.
This fellow was rushing to the night watchman's headquarters with his colleagues. With such a big incident in the capital, the night watchmen were naturally busy.
"You even knew about him?" The supervisor remained expressionless; his entire scheme had been discovered by these people.
Did they also know about Xu Qi'an's background?
"I know, you're a soul you retrieved from another world," Richard said nonchalantly.
Sure enough, this guy really knew. Jian Zheng cursed inwardly. He was like a transparent person in front of these guys; he hadn't hidden any of his schemes from them.
"Don't worry, we won't interfere with your plans, as long as you don't scheme against the Imperial Advisor and Mu Nanzhi." Richard waved his hand, indicating that the supervisor didn't need to worry.
The group did not stay at the observatory for long, leaving after only a few hours.
After watching the commotion outside with Lin Feng and his group, Richard and his companions bid farewell to the supervisor and left.
The group of people came here simply to say hello to the supervisor.
Otherwise, the endless probing by the supervisor would be troublesome, and they might not have the patience to endure it and might just slap him.
As I said before, in this world, if you don't want to keep hiding, you can't get around the supervisor.
After bidding farewell to the supervisor, the group rejoined the main force.
Xiao Yao was overjoyed at Richard's return.
Luo Yuheng didn't say much after returning. Even though she knew that Emperor Yuanjing wanted to forcibly take Mu Nanzhi away while she was away, there was nothing she could do. She couldn't very well go and stab Emperor Yuanjing with a sword, could she? She was still tied to the fate of the Great Feng Kingdom. If the Great Feng Kingdom was damaged, her cultivation would also be affected.
