"This is impossible!"
Situ Xiaoshu's face changed, she could not believe the message in her hands even if she was beaten to death.
The majority of the sword artists in the Blade Sealing Alliance were all hot-blooded, hearty and honest people. Although they would occasionally cause trouble for the group, the group of people who came with him to the northwest were chosen by him over and over again. They were absolutely loyal and reliable, and it would be the first time that he did not believe that there was a problem with them.
Over ten swordsmen, each of whom could be called by name, could tell the background of their families. Before they left, they all passionately promised that they would be willing to join the army to the northwest, throw their heads and spill blood to protect their Homo Clan.
With them like this, how could they turn their backs on him? How could it be possible to destroy the core of the formation at such a crucial moment, causing his Homo Clan to suffer a great loss, shaking his very foundation?
Situ Xiaoshu's first thought was that someone had framed him, and wanted to pin this massive crime on her Blade Sealing Alliance.
This thought filled her with righteous indignation, and she wanted to refute her own injustice and innocence. However, a trace of rationality in her mind was still able to calm her down, an elite who had been trained by her heirs since she was young, and she turned back to reflect on it.
"..." Vajra Temple had always been a righteous path, and never played tricks. If it was Jade Void Sect, there was indeed a possibility of it framing them, but Vajra Temple … Even if he didn't believe it, others would.
"..." Could it be that this information was true, that those swordsmen had turned the tables in front of the formation and destroyed the formation's core, causing the Yungaang Pass to explode?
Thinking about these, Situ Xiaoshu frowned, she was quiet for a moment, after a long while, she raised her head, and realized that everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to speak.
"Everyone, I …"
Situ Xiaoshu had originally wanted to promise them that as long as she had the chance, he would be able to give them an explanation.
Even if there was, he was not a talent good at investigating cases. If he wanted to rely on his or Blade Sealing Alliance's power to wash away his grievances, it would probably be too late. If he promised to go easy, then he would not be able to do anything about it.
If he were to speak carelessly out of a whim, not only would he embarrass himself, he would also be trapped in an injustice. The worst thing was, what difference was there between him, who was messing around like this, and that Sima Bingxin, the girl who was pestering him?
Fortunately, they were all on their own side. Before she could say anything, Sima Ling interrupted her, "Little girl, don't worry. I won't trust you if others don't trust you." Blade Sealing Alliance is like blood and liver, even you don't believe, who else can you trust? There's definitely something fishy about this, it's not that simple. "
Wu Cangni frowned at the side. This declaration by the Old Head of the Secretariat was indeed based on loyalty and conscience, but she was extremely rude to Vajra Temple. The Blade Sealing Alliance was honest and trustworthy. If these words were to spread out, the Sima Family and the Vajra Temple would definitely cause trouble.
Understanding the seriousness of this matter, Wu Cangni bowed slightly and said, "Master Ku Rong."
"Don't worry, even though Shixiong Fang sent this message, you still think that with the loyalty of the Blade Sealing Alliance, there's something fishy about this. You don't have to worry, this old monk will ask Shixiong Fang to keep this information under control so that no one else will know about it."
Hearing the promise, Situ Xiaoshu felt a sense of relief and cupped her hands in gratitude. "Thank you, Master, for your consent, I will do my best to prevent the victims of this battle from dying in vain."
Situ Xiaoshu's heart felt as though a huge boulder had been released from her chest, as though a heavy burden had been lifted off of her shoulders. She was extremely happy, and she felt that it was great that she was able to resolve such a major issue like this.
If everything was really a plot by the evil people and there was someone controlling it from behind, then it was impossible for the news to be sealed here. This matter would definitely spread out in the near future through various channels, followed by waves of provocation, doubt, and suspicion.
However, these problems could only be dealt with at the moment. The most important thing was to retreat. There was another worry weighing heavily on his mind, but no one could come up with a solution for it.
"..." When leaving the Hall of Heroic Spirits, he had personally seen the crack in the Conferred God Stage, and as the Star Breaker, he understood the meaning of Conferred God Stage. If the Conferred God Stage collapsed, how serious would the consequences be, he had no idea at all.
The most rational course of action would be to negotiate with the Beasts and then combine the power of many races to fight against this calamity that would arrive shortly. He hoped that he could find a way out of this calamity during the apocalypse.
However, looking at the situation in front of him, these thoughts were nothing but nonsense. He couldn't even explain this to the people around him, and he could only teleport once after the Hall of Heroic Spirits returned to the Modern Realm. After the teleportation ended, he had no way to return to the Hall of Heroic Spirits, and he couldn't even do this, let alone convince people around him.
If only Wen Qubing was here too … He could teleport himself to the Hall of Heroic Spirits, and could teleport others in as well. Furthermore, he should be aware of the secrets of the Conferred God Stage, and might even be able to fix it …
Considering all the problems, Wu Cangni felt a headache coming on, but right then, she took the initiative to walk towards her.
"General Wu, there is one thing... "I have an accident to report to you."
Loong Yun'er laughed with extreme awkwardness. She truly could not accept it if she was pushed out just because she clearly did not want to do anything.
"The eight thousand gold coins from the construction of the city …"
"Oh."
Wu Cangni said softly, remembering this incident. If not for Loong Yun'er mentioning it, she would have forgotten about the disgusting actions of the people from the military.
All these years, he had been cautious to avoid suspicion from the military, but apparently, he had never been at ease there. Everything was restricted, and he had to do things from time to time to make himself sick.
The problem was that if they wanted to build a city in that kind of place, even if they had the money, they wouldn't be able to hire anyone, not to mention the reaction of the Beasts. This was equivalent to waving the flag at the Beasts, and trying to build a city under their attack, they didn't want the eight thousand gold coins, but rather the eight hundred thousand army and the sense of sacrifice.
He did not care about this bullshit order at all. If it wasn't for the fact that his plan for Beasts was at a critical point and he did not want to cause any more trouble, he would have torn the order book apart the moment he received it!
"That... There's a little kid in our team who doesn't know much. " Loong Yun'er considered her words, using a more tactful way of speaking, "She took that silver note, and then … "I'm sorry for tearing the banknotes!"
"What?"
Wu Cangni's body trembled, eight thousand gold coins was not a small sum of money. Although she was the general director of the northwest region, but it was not so easy to see the amount of funds allocated, even if her plan to build the city did not work, the amount of money would still be useful, but she was actually ripped apart by a little kid?
However, after being shocked and angry for a moment, Wu Cangni laughed bitterly, and waved his hand: "Forget it, since it's torn, then so be it. I had originally wanted to tear it apart, but this child is considerate."
In the end, it was just a mischievous child, and he still owed Wen Qubing a favor. Could it be that for this matter, he would be able to sentence that child to death? Since he couldn't do anything, he might as well wave his hand and let things pass …
Loong Yun'er said: "Thank you, General Wu for your magnanimity, I thank you on behalf of that child, but that was not the only thing that happened, after that silver note was torn, a huge pile of things fell out."
"Is there such a thing?"
Wu Cangni was shocked, even Sima Ling and Zen Master Ku Rong were surprised, knowing that the matter was not normal.
How big could a silver note be? After tearing it open, the items would fall out. The paper was hidden paper, or silk, and if the production was more exquisite, it wouldn't be an inconceivable matter. But after tearing it open, a lot of things would fall out, and it wouldn't be simple.
Amongst the various Law of Heaven and Earth, as long as they came into contact with the dao of time and space, they were not simple.
The weirdest thing was that this banknote had been passed on by the military. It had been tightly sealed along the way and no one had a chance to get their hands on it. If there was a problem with the banknote, then the person who used it at the start … The Imperial Military Department?
Wu Cangni thought for a moment, then asked: What is hidden in the banknotes?
Loong Yun'er said: "The thing... There are a lot of us, but we don't have enough people to transport them all, so we can only find a way to conceal ourselves. We picked out a few of them and shipped them over, and they are outside.
"Bring me there!"
Wu Cangni immediately took action, bringing everyone to rush out, only to see that on top of a few mop boards, there were some stones and metals scattered everywhere, they looked extremely strange, and no one could say what they were.
Zen Master Ku Rong looked at it and muttered, "These …" It seems to be some sort of structure, and I have to piece it together perfectly to see its true form. "
The old Zen Master Ku Rong saw that Wen Guangbo did not even notice anything wrong with him, and the others did not recognize him either. Only Wu Cangni's expression changed and he blurted out, "How could it be this …."
Wu Zhanhao was surprised: "Sister A, do you know what this is?"
Everyone's attention was drawn over, the things were sent by the military, and the one receiving it was Wu Cangni. If there was anyone who could recognize her, it would definitely be her.
"I don't know what this is. Judging from its shape, perhaps it is a small part of a certain building that needs to be fully assembled before it knows the truth."
Wu Cangni frowned: "But... The Yungaang Pass back then, was something similar that was pieced together overnight! "
At the same time, a desiccated corpse, with broken limbs, was hung on the flagpole in the Beasts. It moved leisurely, bringing about a ghastly wind …
