City Lord Mansion, Conference Hall.
The Eagle Guards sat on the armchairs under the Eagle Soaring in the Sky painting and asked calmly, "How is it?"
"What do you mean?!" Steward Lao Hei said vaguely as he held a glass of wine and ate peanuts.
"What do you think?
Why are you feigning ignorance at a time like this! "Ying Wuwei said indignantly as he looked at the roof.
"You're talking about your nephew!
It's not that I want to say this, but that little Lang General's life is really tough. First, he drank the Blood of the True Spirit, then he was drained of all his blood essence, and then he was flicked by a Kenpo by a cultivator in the midst of a tribulation. He's actually still holding on to his last breath. He's really not simple! "
Old Black smacked his lips and said, "However, even though he's hanging on to his last breath, even if he can be saved, I'm afraid he'll be a cripple. His essence energy has scattered, and there's not even a tenth of his vitality left. His family really is messing around, daring to give him anything!"
"Hmm!" The Eagle Guards replied nonchalantly.
"However, there's an old saying that goes, 'Those who kill will be killed by others'. Didn't you see the tragic scene at the scene? A little Lang General is so vicious, killing people like chopping melons and vegetables. He even dared to drink the blood of a true spirit for such a small matter. Is the blood essence refined by a tribulation cultivator that easy to control?
You have no sense of propriety, "Blackie continued.
"Oh!" The Eagle Guards replied.
Old Sable glanced at Ying Wuwei and said, "This nephew of yours is quite bold, and he's quite brave when it comes to killing people. He's very similar to you when you were young. It looks like he's using you as a role model, but his temperament isn't too good. He doesn't care about human lives at all. Logically speaking, there's nothing wrong with that. It's war, so what if some people die? But he doesn't care about the lives of his own people either. Didn't you see the bloody scene at the city gates? It's terrifying!
It was too scary!
“
"You're the Black Impermanence, how can you be scared?
Stop messing around and get down to business! "The Eagle Guards finally couldn't stand Blackie's nagging anymore.
"That black-robed fellow who defeated your nephew and Ying Yang is not bad. It's a pity that he's a fugitive. If he were to be trained in the army, his future would be limitless!
He was loyal and knew when to strike. Every strike was aimed at the weak spot, forcing others to be on guard!
Where did such a person come from? What a pity! "
"I told you to get down to business!"
Old Black's eyes were smiling as he said, "It's business!
I think that fellow Wu Tianran should be demoted. If he can't even handle such a small matter, how can he lead troops in the future?
How could he not lose on the battlefield?
All these years, he had really lived like a dog.
“
"You can't blame him for this. The situation is too complicated!
The order I gave him was only to assist Ying Yang. If there's a crime, then Ying Yang is the main culprit! "The Eagle Guards said with a face of righteousness.
"On the battlefield, the timing and the situation can change in an instant. Wu Tianran really isn't suited to lead troops. He's too cautious and lacks courage. It's hard for him to take on such a big responsibility!" Old Black said with disdain.
"He's already qualified enough. He's been promoted bit by bit. What's more, where are we going to find so many people who know military affairs? Who would be willing to come to our town to be a soldier? Why don't you take over and I'll hand over all the military power to you!"
"In your dreams. You want me to be your soldier? Dream on!
Being your steward is already due to our past relationship. I don't care about anything else. Look at my waist! "Old Black pointed at his waist that was about to be bent ninety degrees as he laughed.
"You won't drink even if there's wine. I'm going to go back and sleep. It's easy to get sleepy when you're old!" Old Black yawned and got up to leave.
"Hmph, I think you're doing this on purpose. How's Ying Yang?" The Eagle Guards's faces were red from holding back.
Old Hei laughed heartily. "I thought you would hold it in and not ask!
If you want to know, go see for yourself!
As a father, you clearly care about your son but don't want to see him. I really don't know what you're thinking!
Your whole family is so worrisome. "Saying this, he walked out.
"Come back and explain!" The Eagle Guards cursed.
"It's fine. He's just angry!" Old Black's voice floated over.
Hearing Old Black's words, the Eagle Guards secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The meeting hall fell into silence, and no sound came out for a long time.
At that time, not long after Wu Tianran arrived, the Eagle Guards and Old Black had arrived. They had seen with their own eyes how their nephew's life was hanging by a thread, how Ying Yang struggled for a long time over Lang General's safety, how Ying Yang's final choice, how Ying Yang and Huo Sixing's negotiation process, and how Wu Tianran Protector General Wu chose to protect himself …
He also saw Huo Si Xing's decision to give up glory and riches in the end for his freedom. He saw how the fugitives were united and listened to Huo Si Xing's orders. He saw them retreat step by step towards Silvermoon City's majestic city walls in an orderly manner.
The Eagle Guards always had the urge to rush out. In his opinion, Ying Yang shouldn't have been so decisive, Wu Tianran shouldn't have been so blunt, and his nephew shouldn't have thrown away the face and reputation of the nobility. For a moment, he even felt that their actions were not as outstanding as Huo Sixing's.
He wanted to step forward and loudly scold his son and his subordinates, but he was always pulled back by Old Black. Old Black's words still lingered in his ears.
"You can't always stand in front of them and shelter them from the wind and rain. The world will depend on them in the future, and they need to experience some wind and rain!"
It wasn't until he saw his nephew being hit by a Kenpo from a Tribulation Cultivator that he suddenly realized that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed. He got up and chased after the Tribulation Cultivator, leaving Old Black to keep an eye on him.
When he returned empty-handed, he saw that Ying Yang had fainted from anger. He asked Old Black why he didn't do anything. Old Black straightened his face and said, "I'm not your soldier. I'm just your butler. Ying Yang isn't in danger."
The Eagle Guards were furious, but there was nothing they could do.
They had to rush back to the Castellan Mansion before Wu Tianran did.
He had a lot of questions in his mind. Who was that Tribulation Cultivator who had sneaked up on him?
What was his purpose?
Why were there so many Tribulation Cultivators in a prison that was used to hold fugitives in the Cloud State?
Why was Huo Sixing so powerful when he didn't have any spiritual power?
Where did that tyrannical power of thunder and lightning come from?
Why did his nephew treat a group of fugitives with iron and blood instead of delaying them until reinforcements arrived?
Were the fugitives really released by Wanyan Bingzheng?
In short, the security of Silvermoon City wasn't as he thought it would be, which made him feel very frustrated.
He didn't know what other demons and monsters were hiding under the dark tide.
All of this seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand, which made him feel that the future of Silvermoon City wouldn't be peaceful anymore!
The fugitives collectively broke out of prison and escaped from Silvermoon City, which greatly damaged the reputation of Silvermoon City.
He had to find a way to calm this matter down as soon as possible and catch those fugitives as soon as possible.
He had to find out who was behind the scenes and ensure the safety of the people of Silvermoon City.
The Eagle Guards sat on the armchairs with their eyes closed, deep in thought. Being in a high position, he could see further and think deeper than others.
He couldn't let go of even the slightest clue. He had to nip the danger in the bud.
