Chapter 2148: Chapter 2148: Are Those Three People Really That Ruthless?
No matter what, even if the Emperor of Beikun doesn’t believe they are from the Demon Heart Hall, one must not underestimate their strength. He had personally witnessed all the forces of Gui Ting Manor under Gui Sihu crumble within less than It would be dawn.
With such strength, wouldn’t it be effortless for them to enter the Beikun Imperial Palace without anyone noticing?
“Shut up, do not boost the morale of others while undermining your own dignity!”
Seeing him still talking like this, the Emperor of Beikun was so angry that he almost exploded. If it weren’t for the merit he had done in the past and the potential use for him in the future, he would surely have ordered someone to drag him out and behead him.
“Get out! I do not wish to see you now, get lost!”
“Your servant takes his leave.”
The guard did not dare to linger and promptly skedaddled before the Emperor of Beikun became so furious that he wanted to chop him down.
“What are you still standing here for? Go and invite State Scholar Qing and the others over!” The Emperor of Beikun, seeing the Eunuch Supervisor was still not moving, raged even more and gave him a kick to get him going.
“Yes, this servant will go invite them now.”
The Eunuch Supervisor, having eaten an unwarranted kick, what could he say? He could only agree and go to invite them.
Listening to the words of that guard, it seems the experts invited by the Yiinn Family are not to be trifled with. Could they really have come over from Wulong Mountain?
If they really did, then they must be related to the Demon Heart Hall. After all, the Yiinn Family is directly subordinate to the Demon Heart Hall—even if the Demon Heart Hall hasn’t contacted the Yiinn Family for many years, they are genuinely backed by the Demon Heart Hall, with the support of High Priest Demon Heart.
He pondered for a moment, should he warn State Scholar Qing and the others?
No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than he quickly dismissed it in his heart. Telling State Scholar Qing would be like telling the Emperor of Beikun, so would he still have his life to live then?
After all, his position as Eunuch Supervisor is different from that of a guard, who is there to protect and save lives. As a Eunuch Supervisor, one who does the grunt work, his cultivation level is genuinely lacking. If the Emperor of Beikun knew he talked too much, wouldn’t he be killed on the spot?
So it’s better to let this matter rot in his stomach.
…
That night, the Eunuch Supervisor finally finished his shift.
And the first thing he did after his shift was not to return to his quarters but to visit that guard who had not been silenced by the Yiinn Family upon his return.
Wanting to extract some information, he brought with him some snacks and fruits to ingratiate himself.
The two of them sat in a courtyard, eating fruit and talking, both wearing worried expressions on their faces.
“What you said is true, those three people are really that ruthless?”
When the Eunuch Supervisor heard from the guard that almost all the people from Gui Ting Manor had been wiped out, his heart trembled with fear.
In recent years, with the support of the Three Kingdoms, Gui Ting Manor had grown quite strong. To have wiped out Gui Ting Manor in such a short time, and with only three people at that, how could it be the doing of someone from the Plant Plane?
Even if all the State Knights were sent out, they couldn’t possibly have destroyed Gui Ting Manor within It would be dawn.
“It seems they really do come from Wulong Mountain.”
“Exactly.”
The guard bit heavily into a piece of fruit and nodded in agreement. He was genuinely concerned and didn’t know when High Priest Demon Heart might arrive; he hoped not to encounter him again.
“I have already reported to His Majesty, but he would not listen. I can’t do anything about it, Eunuch, could you perhaps persuade…”
“Cannot.”
The guard’s words had not yet finished when the Eunuch Supervisor quickly shut it down.
