Chapter 201: The Battle Is Too Intense
Despite being aware of the awe-inspiring presence of the Mermaid Battle Soldiers, Lu Heng paid them no heed.
After all, he knew little about the situation in the South Sea, let alone the notorious reputation of the two burly men Li Po left behind to guard the gate…
Despite his vigorous objections, Li Po insisted on leaving Wu Ji and Wu Mie to guard the gate.
Even when Lu Heng invited them to enter the courtyard, the brothers politely declined and glared at the nearby Mermaid Battle Soldiers.
"If we don't keep an eye on those untrustworthy fairies, who knows what sorts of sly tricks they might pull behind our backs."
Compared to the two muscular brothers, the mermaid with a delicate figure and small hands was indeed effeminate.
However, the two brothers said so in front of hundreds of Mermaid Battle Soldiers, their arrogant behavior made Lu Heng somewhat amused.
These brothers are really straightforward.
Do they not fear being dragged out to become a signature dish or fresh sashimi in the Mermaid Kingdom after speaking such words?
However, with the brothers being so persistent in guarding the gate, Lu Heng could not force it and had to follow them back to the courtyard with Xiao Ai.
Lu Heng desired to talk with Xiao Ai about her mother's affair.
It can be perceived that, after finishing talking about the Wuqi Country matter, the young girl became somewhat uneasy.
Initially, she merely regarded her mother as a wealthy girl who had been forced to wander through the wilderness due to some circumstances and thus paid no attention to it. However, now realizing her mother's extraordinary status, Xiao Ai also apprehends that her father's disappearance and mother's death were not that simple.
At the very least, her father may still be alive somewhere in this world…
However, soon after Lu Heng and Xiao Ai returned to the courtyard and had just finished talking, the voice of the Wu family brothers could be heard outside the door.
"Senior Wolf God, Luo Yujun from the Immortal Kingdom wishes to see you… Do you want to see him?"
Although these two brothers are quite straightforward in character, they are quite respectful in front of Lu Heng.
And their report also made Lu Heng curious.
Luo Yujun? The Immortal Kingdom's lord? How did this guy come here?
After thinking for a moment, Lu Heng said, "Please let Lord Luo Yujun come in."
Soon, in the watchful eyes of the Wu family brothers, Luo Yujun, who had been sitting in the carriage all the time without revealing his identity, entered the small courtyard where Lu Heng was located.
The strange voice, mixed with male and female voices as before, but Luo Yujun's true appearance was beyond Lu Heng's expectations.
It turned out to be a young boy with red lips and white teeth…
Lu Heng was somewhat surprised while the fair and youthful Luo Yujun smiled politely. Although his voice was unusual, his demeanor was extraordinary, elegant and aristocratic.
"The Immortal Kingdom's Luo Yujun, I have met the Senior Wolf God."
Meanwhile, the news of the Immortal Kingdom's lord's visit to the Wolf God had reached the Chief Minister's hands as Luo Yujun and Lu Heng came face to face.
Just as Yu Huaifeng had received news of Hanhai Department's priest bringing the Wu brothers and the Great Sage of Fu Feng to meet the Wolf God and was pondering over the relationship between Hanhai Department and the Wolf God, fresh news arrived.
He was suddenly taken aback.
"Luo Yujun? Did he also go to pay a visit to the Wolf God?"
After perusing the message in his hand, Yu Huaifeng was somewhat bewildered.
Luo Yujun not only paid homage to the Wolf God but also brought along Praetorian Guards as his escorts.
Not only did he bring Praetorian Guards as his escorts, but he also brought all forty of them…
Currently Luo Yujun is chatting with the Wolf God in the courtyard, and besides the Wu family brothers from the Hanhai Department guarding the gate, there are forty Praetorian Guards scattered outside the courtyard for patrol.
As for the several hundred Mermaid Battle Soldiers he arranged, who were originally there, they are now pushed to the fringes and can't even get close to the small courtyard where the Wolf God is located.
Although several hundred Mermaid Battle Soldiers can overthrow a country, compared to the forty Praetorian Guards in the Immortal Kingdom's arsenal, they fall short…
Yu Huaifeng's brow furrowed tightly as he immediately issued an urgent secret order.
"Recall all the patrolling soldiers and generals from the north! Stand by at the capital city at all times!"
After issuing this urgent secret order, Yu Huaifeng had the mood to ponder on the new intelligence he had just received.
Luo Yujun from the Immortal Kingdom led forty Praetorian Guards to visit the Wolf God, leaving behind some Praetorian Guards to guard the Wolf God's courtyard… this is a great show of support from the Immortal Kingdom for the Wolf God.
When the Hanhai Department came to visit the Wolf God, Yu Huaifeng was still skeptical. But with Luo Yujun's appearance, he was completely convinced.
Both of these groups of people have come for the sake of the Wolf God!
No wonder the Hanhai Department and the Immortal Kingdom, who never participate in the Treasure Conference, have both come this year. It turns out that they have a hidden agenda.
It's just that they are helping the Wolf God in this way… The face of this Wolf God is really prominent.
Yu Huaifeng felt a bit of a headache.
The mere mention of the enigmatic Wolf God had already put the Mermaid Kingdom on edge.
Now, there are more troublesome characters causing chaos…
Can the Mermaid Kingdom not know the details of Luo Yujun from the Immortal Kingdom, that others don't know?
He is an immortal evil demon who crawled out of an ancient battlefield and, relying on that mysterious battlefield, pieced together the fortune of the Immortal Kingdom through various means. Its Praetorian Guards, which were vigorously cultivated, are also an undeniable force on the South Sea.
The combined forty Praetorian Guards are equivalent to an ancient devil.
Then, in addition to the Immortal Kingdom, there was the Hanhai Department…
Compared to the ferocious ancient evil demon Luo Yujun, the Hanhai Department is not as terrifying.
Although the Li Tribe people are awe-inspiring, Li Po is the most talented priest in the tribe for tens of thousands of years and the Wu family brothers are also famous. But the Hanhai Department is just one of the Nine Li Tribe.
It only makes people tremble slightly that the Hanhai Department has come alone.
What gave Yu Huaifeng a headache was that the Li Tribe's nine branches have always been of one mind. Offending one branch equals offending all nine branches.
The nine branches of the Li Tribe, including the old man who once killed people in large numbers of the Raiding Wind Department, Priest Li Tan of the Driving Mountain Department, who boasts about his extraordinary skills, and the Holy Maiden of the mysterious and unfathomable Sacred Mountain of the Li Tribe…they never intervene in the cultivating world's affairs, only drifting in the human world.
But once they choose to interfere, it always brings great disaster and bloodshed.
Who would dare to ignore the nine branches of the Li Tribe?
The Immortal Kingdom forbids mortals from entering, Luo Yujun holds the ancient battle armor, and the Praetorian Guards are peerless all over the world. But when the Hanhai Department of the Li Tribe was previously set within the territory of the Immortal Kingdom and they wanted to migrate to the Immortal Kingdom for several years, Luo Yujun still opened the door and let these mortals enter his forbidden Immortal Kingdom.
Although the heritage of the Mermaid Kingdom is stronger than that of a mere Immortal Kingdom, the nine branches of the Li Tribe still cannot intimidate the Mermaid Kingdom.
However, the pressure brought by the Immortal Kingdom, Hanhai Department, and the Wolf God at the same time, has also grown to the point of being impossible to ignore…
Yu Huaifeng considered for a long time and finally gave another command.
- Summon all domestic coastguard forces and guard the country!
The grandiosity of the Wolf God's stance leaves the Mermaid Kingdom with no choice but to take it seriously.
