Chapter 1250: Alert the Palace

Some said that the prosperity of the palace was partly because of the hard work from the wealthy families. In the palace, 99% of the businesses belonged to them.

When the news that Lu Shu had returned reached the palace, the quiet dwellings and courtyards started to stir. Lamps slowly lit up the palace at night.

The small roads among the rocks and scenery were quiet. Servants would usually walk and behave quietly here, they were afraid that they would disturb their owners and receive punishment.

A slave was running on the road. A domestic official noticed this and glared at the slave. He folded his arms and sharply shouted, “What kind of outrageous panic is this?”

Domestic officials were different from foreign affairs officials. For example, Xiao Mingze, a foreign affairs manager, was no different from the rest. But if one wanted to become a servant for a domestic official, they had to be castrated. This was to prevent them from causing any trouble to the family.

“My Lord, there is a very important piece of news. Our spies in Nangeng City have relayed information that a major event has occurred.” The slave took out a messenger mirror and passed it to the official.

When the official heard about Nangeng City, he did not care about decency. He used Spirit Qi to awaken the messenger mirror. A person said through the mirror, “My Lord, the Wei Wu Army has returned to the Luniverse. After some maintenance at Nangeng City, they will head west.”

“Head west?” The official picked his eyebrows. “To the West Capital? Are they going to kill Duanmu Huangqi?”

“I do not dare to arrive at such a rash conclusion,” said the spy carefully. In this major situation, if he made a wrong judgment, he would have to pay the price. Thus, what he could do was to provide information. What was about to happen had nothing to do with them.

Serving wealthy families was like asking a tiger for its skin. They had to be cautious.

The official thought about it. Then, he said, “How many people does the Wei Wu Army have?”

“Over 5000,” said the spy. “This number is definitely correct. I also received the news that just after they returned, they killed and eliminated the slave owners along the border of the West and North region. The current Wei Wu Army is even more frightening.”

The official furrowed his eyebrows. “Weren’t they eliminated by Duanmu Huangqi? What, are they completely unharmed after 200 thousand soldiers from the Black Feather Army died? What exactly happened during that war?”

“I don’t know.” The spy looked down and secretly rolled his eyes. If he did not receive information that the Wei Wu Army had been killed by Duanmu Huangqi, why would he go to a dangerous place like Nangeng City?

A group of spies had left today, but many of them had been killed.

What happened during the war between the Wei Wu Army and the Black Feather Army was something the entire Luniverse wanted to know. 200 thousand soldiers from the Black Feather Army had died.

But the spy could not understand. Why was it as if nothing had happened to the Wei Wu Army at all? Had Duanmu Huangqi been defeated in that battle?

When they thought about this, they grew uncomfortable. He was the West Lord of Heaven. How was it possible that a young man who was able to stand up to Duanmu Huangqi as an equal had suddenly appeared?

Most importantly, the Wei Wu Army was probably heading west to kill Duanmu Huangqi. They were going to kill a Lord of Heaven. The Luniverse was going to descend into chaos!

The official thought for a long time. Suddenly, he said, “Are there any other strange things?”

“Now that you say so, I remember something.” The spy thought about it and said, “After they went through maintenance at the campsite, we infiltrated the site to see whether there were any clues. But we discovered something strange.”

“Hurry up and say it. Why are you keeping me in suspense?” The official furrowed his eyebrows.

“… they grilled some lamb, but left before eating them,” said the spy.

The mutton looked very delicious. It was much more fragrant than the usual mutton everyone ate. But why had the Wei Wu Army not eaten the mutton? It was very strange!

The official was dumbfounded. “That’s all?”

This was the strange thing you were talking about?

The spy hesitated for a long time. “Er, this… you don’t know how fragrant the mutton was!”

The official unkindly closed the messenger mirror. “Go away.”

The spy felt that he had been wrongly treated. The mutton was so fragrant that he stopped in his tracks. Why had the Wei Wu Army put down the mutton and left? This was very strange, right?

At that moment, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were advancing forward at full speed. Lu Shu looked at the wave of distress points and beamed with joy. He wanted to quickly light up all the stars in the sixth level of nebula. Not only could he advance his realm, his boasting to Filth Removal would be justified.

Now, Filth Removal was hiding on the main star of the sixth level of nebula. He was not under Lu Shu’s control. This made Lu Shu extremely unhappy.

Furthermore, they were about to face a major enemy. Of course, it would be better to be stronger. He did not have any effective ways to earn distress points. Other than killing the slave owners, he could only make use of Li Heitan and the rest for now.

He did not need to eat the mutton, but it had to compensate him.

Li Heitan and the rest were about to go crazy. Although the mutton was cooked, they were not allowed to eat the mutton. Great Lord, was this not an assembly? During typical assemblies, everyone would eat and drink. In the end, they would smash their bowls and head towards the battlefield, full of excitement! Who would intentionally make fun of others during an assembly?

At first, everyone thought that Lu Shu had forgotten this. But later on, they realized that Lu Shu had not forgotten. He had deliberately done so…

The Great Lord was still the same Great Lord. At least, he had not changed at all in terms of his evil interests…

The official went deeper into his courtyard. He had to let the head of the family know about this situation that might impact the entire Luniverse. They could not be careless.

The same thing was happening in many places within the palace.

At first, everyone felt that it was lucky enough for the Wei Wu Army to be able to successfully escape the palace and return to Nangeng City. No one expected that the Wei Wu Army had killed 200 thousand soldiers from the Black Feather Army.

Later on, everyone heard that the Wei Wu Army had been eliminated. Everyone thought that this was natural. After all, the Wei Wu Army was facing the West Lord of Heaven. It would be abnormal if they were not eliminated.

To everyone, the Four Lords of Heaven were the strongest masters in the world. They had unfathomable powers.

But now, not only had the Wei Wu Army returned, they were heading west, as if they were going to kill Duanmu Huangqi!

Although the young man had caused a large disturbance in the palace last time, no one expected the young man to be able to threaten the order established in the Luniverse for at least 1000 years!

Someone was challenging the authority of the Lord of Heaven!

In the depths of a courtyard, the head of the family calmly said, “If the Wei Wu Army is really going west to find Duanmu Huangqi, then they have to go through the Liujian Pass. That place is full of natural dangers and guards. The Wei Wu Army will not have an easy time…”

Suddenly, a voice sounded from outside. “A new report! The Liujian Pass has been broken through!”

The head of the family was silent.
