Military Palace.
Due to the lack of a leader, the Black Orchid Battle Group would restrain themselves a little.
But this time.
The Black Orchid Battle Group was framed. After a series of secret talks between the Vice Commander and the Commander, they finally made a counterattack.
First, they had to thoroughly investigate this matter and find out who framed the Black Orchid Battle Group.
The Vice Commander personally went to the valley to investigate. Then, he ordered all the members to try their best to find other clues.
Finally.
In two days, the Black Orchid Battle Group obtained some important clues.
After many rounds of selection, they locked onto the three generals.
"Vice Commander, what do you think?"
A member asked.
The three suspicious people were General Li Shu, General He Wei, and General Li Ji.
The three of them had high prestige in the military palace and represented three different factions.
Among them, General Li Shu was the most low-key one.
General He Wei had outstanding military achievements. He had once killed three thousand enemies by himself and became famous in one battle.
He was a radical, but he was also a war advocate.
His uncompromising personality made him only want to charge forward when facing challenges from the enemy.
Simply put, he was brave but not smart.
The third was General Li Ji.
When he saw this name, the Vice Commander frowned and his expression became serious.
This General Li Ji was the only one of the three who had a grudge with the Black Orchid Battle Group.
Moreover, he had wanted to take the Black Orchid Battle Group under his command more than once.
A few months ago, he had even injured a messenger of the Black Orchid Battle Group.
At that time, the Black Orchid Battle Group was furious and almost rebelled.
"Is it him?"
Someone asked.
The Vice Commander played with the brush in his hand and thought to himself.
"Roughly speaking, Secretary Li is the most suspicious person on the list."
The least suspicious was Li Shu.
This was because he was a peacemaker. Everyone would give him face.
When Li Ji attacked the Black Orchid Battle Group, Li Shu had even stood up for them.
"It's not him."
After a long while.
Under the gazes of many people, the Vice Commander finally spoke.
He had come to this conclusion after careful consideration.
"I know Li Ji very well. He hates evil and is straightforward. He is definitely not a sinister person."
To be able to become the Deputy Commander of the Black Orchid Battle Group, his intelligence was not something ordinary people could compare to.
"We've dealt with him before, and he's always honest with us. He won't lie, and he won't frame us."
"But what if he's not what he appears to be?" Someone raised an objection.
No matter what, he couldn't wrong a good person, but he couldn't let a villain off either.
"Let's let the deputy commander analyze it first."
The hall fell silent again.
The deputy commander continued to analyze the basic information of the three people, as well as some top-secret information that they had, and even their interests and hobbies.
A comprehensive analysis of everything.
Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the hall.
The person who came was the Chief Commander's personal guard.
"Vice Commander."
The bodyguard cupped his fists and took out a letter from his bosom, handing it to the vice commander.
"The Lord Commander asked me to personally pass this to you, Deputy Commander."
The latter took the letter.
"Since the letter has been delivered, I'll take my leave."
With that, the bodyguard left.
When the vice commander opened the letter, his expression changed drastically.
Commander's residence.
"Commander, the letter has been delivered." The personal guard returned to report.
Fang Chen nodded.
"Is the Lord Commander sure that the incident this time was caused by the Deputy Commander and General Li Shu?" The personal guard asked doubtfully.
"That's not important."
Fang Chen smiled mysteriously.
He just wanted to quell the internal strife in the military palace as soon as possible.
His relationship with the Black Orchid Legion was just a mutually beneficial cooperation.
The Black Orchid Legion was cautious and wouldn't jump to conclusions.
Therefore, he provided some clues to the vice commander.
As for whether the clues were true or not?
Was it important?
Fang Chen didn't care whether the Black Orchid Legion would take action or not.
At this moment, he had already arrived at the military palace's treasury.
Only the Chief Commander could enter and exit the treasury at will. The countless wealth and rare treasures that the Carefree Army had collected over the years were all collected here.
Creak!
The door of the treasury opened, and Fang Chen entered alone.
His gaze swept across the entire treasury and he sighed.
There were many rare treasures in the treasury, but they were useless to him.
His real purpose was to devour the demon blood.
In a short while, he found the place where the demon blood was kept.
On one of the steps of the treasury, there was a yellow cover that covered the three drops of demon blood.
Swoosh!
Seeing this, Fang Chen's eyes lit up. He reached out his hand, wanting to grab the blood.
But he was shocked to find that the yellow cover stopped him.
Suddenly.
An illusory figure appeared in the void. It was the spirit of the treasury.
"Lord Commander, even you can't take the treasures of the treasury at will."
If he wanted to get them, he had to complete the mission.
"How can I get them?" Fang Chen asked.
"These three drops of blood are the precious blood of the Demon Devouring Race. They are also the most important things in the treasury. They are priceless," the spirit said.
"You can go to the battlefield and collect the remains of the enemy. One hundred Saint Emperor remains can be exchanged for one drop of blood."
"What if I want all three drops?" Fang Chen continued to ask.
The spirit was stunned for a moment.
Then it said seriously, "Lord Commander, I think you don't quite understand the terrible situation on the battlefield."
On the battlefield, the enemy experts were all very cunning.
It was already very difficult to kill a single Saint Emperor, let alone a hundred Saint Emperors.
So, until now, no one had been able to exchange for the blood.
"So, as long as I bring back three hundred Saint Emperor remains, I can exchange for three drops of blood?" Fang Chen said.
The spirit nodded.
Fang Chen did not say anything and directly left the treasury.
"Looks like I have to speed up."
… …
Li Shu's residence.
"General Li Shu, the Black Orchid Battle Group seems to be pointing their spear at us," Ye Long said in a low voice.
Li Shu was very calm.
"Hmph, a bunch of brainless fellows. They must have been used by the commander." Li Shu sneered, "But, this is also good. If he can use them, so can I."
They had already received news that the Black Orchid Battle Group had locked onto the three of them as suspects.
All these years.
Li Shu had secretly cultivated many spies and mixed them into the various battle groups.
Even in the Black Orchid Battle Group, there were some of his people.
"Spread the news that the new commander wants to reorganize the military palace and is willing to frame the meritorious officials …"
Li Shu smiled eerily.
"Last time, he got rid of him. Let's see how he can escape this time."
Ye Long grinned when he heard that.
"General Li Shu, if you can chase Lin Chen away or make him die mysteriously on the battlefield, my mission will be completed. At that time, I will leave and you will be in charge of the military palace."
"Very soon, this day will come."
