Chapter 204: In the End, Stood Alone Against Everything

Lu Heng's words were incomprehensible to the little girl.

Although the young girl was exceptionally intelligent, matters involving public opinion manipulation and conspiracies made her feel unfamiliar.

Lu Heng, having experienced similar situations in his past life, immediately noticed the irregularities and remained unmoved, waiting for a response from the Mermaid Kingdom.

Compared to the chaos caused by the villains manipulating public opinion and stirring up trouble on the internet for money in his past life, the rumors and slanders found within the Mermaid Kingdom were child's play.

Lu Heng believed that the Mermaid Kingdom would also be unwilling to easily initiate a war, otherwise they would not have welcomed him into the city using slow tactics.

While Lu Heng was comforting Xiao Ai in the courtyard, Yu Hailing, the lord of the Mermaid Kingdom who had just come out of the ancestral temple in the palace, also listened to the report of the Chief Imperial Secretary.

Suddenly filled with anger.

"How dare they act recklessly in the Mermaid Kingdom! Have these people grown tired of living?"

Yu Hailing's face instantly turned cold, "That madman Mu Yepeng led people to disturb women and cause chaos in my Mermaid Kingdom. I haven't had a chance to settle accounts with their friends and family--if not for that Mu Yepeng's bastard behavior, would things escalate to this point?"Fôllôw new stories at no/v(e)lb/in(.)com

"Now this group of people still have the audacity? Do they take my Mermaid Kingdom for granted?"

Yu Hailing's gaze was icy. "Since they like to make a fuss, let them make as much fuss as they want! Immediately arrest all these people and send them to the city gate to be sliced into sashimi! And then feed them to the sea monster! Let them cause a commotion in the belly of the sea monster!"

The daunting command of Yu Hailing left the Chief Imperial Secretary helpless and bitter.

"My lord! Ponder upon this," pleaded the Chief Imperial Secretary with helplessness, "although these people may have ulterior motives, if their speech is not punishable by law, it is not in line with the legal system of our country. There is no provision in the law that these people cannot curse the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain."

Continuing his plea, the Chief Imperial Secretary lamented, "The Mermaid Kingdom has always had strict laws, so we must act in accordance with the law, and not disregard its credibility due to momentary impulse. Once the credibility is destroyed, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

The Chief Imperial Secretary persisted in his persuasion, but Yu Hailing raised her eyebrows, and looked at him coldly.

"You mean these people cannot be arrested?"

Yu Huaifeng advised, "If you are concerned about public opinion, I can invite the Wolf God to meet you in a different courtyard. In this way, it will not seem like you are seeking an audience with the Wolf God, but rather it will seem like the Wolf God is seeking an audience with you... How about that?"

Yu Huaifeng knew that the lord had changed her mind because of the rumors spread by those rats.

It is now widely believed that the Mermaid Kingdom fears and worships the Wolf God. If the news were to come out that the lord of the Mermaid Kingdom went to pay respect to the Wolf God, it would certainly give those rumor-mongers a new reason to celebrate.

How can a national affair be changed just because of a dispute of temperament?

Yu Huaifeng tried to persuade, but Yu Hailing just glanced at him and retorted, "Master Yu, as a grown man, why do you make everything so complicated? You act like an old woman... Can you just be straightforward? If I say I won't see him, then I won't!"

"The Wolf God is here to save someone, while we are here to kill someone. If we were to fight, would it matter whether or not I went to see him?"

"If we wouldn't fight anyway, does it matter whether or not I go see him?"

"Then why waste time? I have no interest in dealing with this old monster who has been living for who knows how many years. You can take him to the Extreme Hell Prison yourself."

Yu Hailing instructed, "And when you take him to the Extreme Hell Prison, be careful. Although the Wolf God has a good reputation and is not like Candle Dragon, who is an old rascal, you still need to be cautious and watch out for him trying to escape when visiting other prisoners."

After speaking, Yu Hailing directly disappeared in the palace without looking back, leaving Chief Minister behind.

Standing on the long corridor under the sea, where seawater surged and fishes swam, Yu Huai watched Lord's departure with a helpless smile.

Their lord was truly unpredictable, which was a headache.

However, upon careful consideration, it appears that the matter is indeed as Lord said. Whether or not the Mermaid Kingdom and the Wolf God will break apart depends not on whether or not Lord sees the Wolf God, but on the Wolf God's attitude toward his friend...

With that in mind, Yu Huaifeng couldn't help but let out a sigh and said:

"It seems that this matter will ultimately fall on me..."

Yu Huaifeng sighed with no other options and left the corridor, walking toward outside the palace.

He intended to visit the Wolf God once again.
