Overriding the Heaven

Wu Xiaoming's brows slowly furrowed.    

The uncomfortable feeling in his heart seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.    

"Tell me more, what are the positions of these lords?" Wu Xiaoming said again.    

This little eunuch was obviously very quick-witted. Normally, every word that Wu Xiaoming spoke would be listened to and firmly memorized by him.    

This time, he had helped Wu Xiaoming.    

After some thought, the eunuch recounted the positions of the lords.    

Wu Xiaoming's brows were twisted into a frown.    

"It's really strange." His shrill voice trembled slightly. "These lords should have arrived in the capital five or six days ago. How come there's still no news of them? And they … and they …"    

The young eunuch pricked up his ears, wanting to listen carefully, but he realized that Wu Xiaoming had shut his mouth at this moment.    

When he raised his head, he was shocked to find that Wu Xiaoming's face was shockingly white at this moment.    

Due to the fact that he was missing teeth, his sunken mouth now looked even more ferocious.    

"Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor?" Seeing Wu Xiaoming's eyes open wide and staring straight in a direction that was completely still, without even a rise in his chest, the little eunuch was completely terrified and shouted in a low voice in a hurry.    

After shouting for more than ten times, Wu Xiaoming trembled violently. He regained his senses and laughed miserably: "I'm fine."    

He said it was fine, but the expression on his face clearly said: I'm going to be scared to death!    

The young eunuch also did not know that those lords did not arrive in the capital on time.    

With the current expression on Eunuch Wu's face, to say that it was a blade and axe joining the body would not be an exaggeration.    

The young eunuch naturally did not know of the secret, and it was impossible for Wu Xiaoming to tell him either.    

At this moment, Wu Xiaoming's heart was beating wildly, "These Masters were all involved in that matter three years ago. It's just that because of the power struggle that happened afterwards, they were not left in the capital to enjoy the glory and wealth of the city. This time, they did not return on time. Did they make contact with each other, or — did something happen? "    

Wu Xiaoming was a smart person.    

If he wasn't smart, it would have been impossible for him to climb to his current position from a nameless eunuch in just a few years.    

Thus, he was able to quickly judge that if those few Masters were to join hands, just the fact that the current Crown Prince Chu Xing had become Wan Hai Sect Disciple was enough to dispel that thought.    

Mortals would have to fight against cultivators, unless their brains were damaged.    

Therefore, the only possibility was that something had happened to them!    

"However, these lords have been assigned to different areas. If an accident occurs at the same time, then someone must have done it on purpose. But who would do it for what reason …?"    

Wu Xiaoming naturally thought of the reason behind this. If not, he wouldn't have been so afraid just now.    

But now, he was desperately trying to tell himself that the reason was absolutely impossible.    

"That person is already dead! Two years ago, he was already dead without a complete corpse. There was no way he could still be alive! Even if he was alive, he definitely wouldn't be able to kill those lords at the same time! It must just be a coincidence for these few lords here, but due to certain reasons, they were delayed at the same time! "    

Wu Xiaoming kept repeating these words to himself in his heart.    

He had no idea how terrifying his expression was right now. His crooked face was contorted even more, as if he was a ghost that had just struggled out of hell.    

But at the same time, the shadow in his heart was constantly affecting him.    

Especially in the Abyss Demon Prison, the figure that merged with the darkness, the figure that one slap almost crushed his head.    

"Bastard!"    

Finally, after Eunuch Wu released a loud scream at the sky, his eyes rolled back. He didn't get up in one breath and fainted, scaring the young eunuch who was serving him to death.    

Because of Eunuch Wu's sudden fainting, the scene fell into a short period of chaos.    

...    

At this time, Chu Yan had already followed his plan and after making some arrangements in the capital, he returned to his original position.    

Because of the arrival of the guests from all over the place, the city gates of Southern Yuan Kingdom had been opened all day.    

The sudden increase in numbers in the city also gave Chu Yan a lot of convenience.    

Within the capital, a few people were gathered together to chat about the celebration that was going to take place in a few days.    

Therefore, it did not take long for Chu Yan to understand everything from the time he left the imperial city to the route, to the steps, to the process, and so on and so forth of the celebration.    

"Looks like no one expected me to come back."    

Chu Yan stood at the entrance of the city, looking at the normally majestic city gates, he sighed in his heart.    

Chu Yan still remembered the words he said to Xiao Pei two years ago when he left this place: "I will return and flatten this place."    

After two years of preparation, it was finally time to fulfill his promise!    

With that thought, Chu Yan could not help but feel his heart tremble.    

A loud shout suddenly came from behind him at this moment.    

Turning around to look, he saw over a dozen extravagantly decorated carriages, under the lead of a dozen or so Southern Yuan Kingdom cavalry soldiers, slowly driving towards the city's city gate from afar.    

These flowery cars were not only decorated with models and vehicles, but also with the coachmen. They were all colourful and exuded an exotic charm.    

"Prefecture of Persia!" Chu Yan focused his gaze.    

As the marshal who had led the troops and infiltrated the opposing imperial city back then, Chu Yan was naturally familiar with this state's service.    

At this moment, the voices of discussion from the bystanders suddenly came from beside him.    

"The Prefecture of Persia has sent you a congratulatory present again!"    

"Yes, I remember that a few days ago there were congratulatory gifts sent by more than ten carriages."    

"Looks like the relationship between our Southern Yuan Kingdom and him has really improved a lot."    

"That's right, and I heard that not only did Prefecture of Persia send envoys this time, he also sent the princess here to celebrate!"    

The person who spoke was full of pride.    

Obviously, the fact that the Prefecture of Persia sent a princess to celebrate made him, a citizen of the Southern Yuan Kingdom, extremely proud.    

When Chu Yan heard this, his heart trembled uncontrollably.    

"Princess of the Prefecture of Persia, could it be Wusilanma? Is it really her? "    

Even though she knew that if it was really Wusilanma, she definitely wouldn't have appeared in these carriages, and should have already arrived in the Southern Yuan Kingdom city to prepare.    

But at the moment, Chu Yan could not hold it in and looked at the horse carriages that were slowly going by.    

"I wonder how she's been lately." Although he did not see Wusilanma, Chu Yan had expected this would happen. He was not disappointed, and only had a bit of worry in his heart.    

After all, in the Plain Silver Valley, Wusilanma had saved him and told him about the celebration of Chu Qiangdong's ascension to the throne.    

Just as Chu Yan was deep in thought, a light "humph" suddenly came from beside his ear.
