It was because Bai Yuhao had just regained his prince's identity and became the future star that the Holy Dragon Kingdom placed high hopes on. Why did he suddenly suffer from a serious illness after cultivating, and even had to indefinitely delay his wedding with the Ximen Family.
Once this news was announced, all sorts of suspicions were naturally aroused. Especially the people from the imperial family. There were also voices of doubt.
However, because the matter of Bai Yuhao causing a ruckus in front of Lili's palace had been forbidden by Dragon Emperor, if anyone were to spread the news, there would be nine families involved. Thus, no matter how suspicious the outside was, it was impossible for them to know the truth.
However, the people of the Ximen Family couldn't sit still anymore. Originally, the wedding was just between the eyebrows, but the imperial family suddenly announced the date of marriage, so the outside world also guessed that the reason was because of the Ximen Family.
This Ximen Family race was suddenly pushed to the heart of the struggle, and became a place filled with public opinion.
Even Ximen Batian couldn't figure out what Dragon Emperor was trying to do, but he understood that if this marriage was delayed, it would definitely not benefit the Ximen Family, and instead cause them to suffer criticism.
Thus, after hearing the news, he personally went to the Palace City in order to ask them about what had happened. But in the end, Dragon Emperor told Ximen Batian to go back first because his body was unwell and he couldn't receive him.
On the second day, Dragon Emperor sent out an order for the Azure Dragon Army under the leadership of the Batian Army to be stationed at the most important military location in the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
Ximen Batian knew that something was wrong the moment he received the order to send him out. Otherwise, Dragon Emperor definitely wouldn't send him out of the Imperial City with a guilty conscience.
Ximen Xue wasn't willing to marry to begin with, so when she heard that there would be an unlimited postponement of the marriage, it was as she wished. However, she was still extremely jealous of Bai Yuhao for taking advantage of her that day. However, when he heard that Bai Yuhao was seriously injured while half-dead, he was very happy and thought that he deserved to be punished. When he heard that his grandfather had been transferred to a military base, he volunteered himself and wanted to go there together.
Once Ximen Batian left, Dragon Emperor did not need to worry about Ximen Family Clan finding out the truth, and Bai Yuhao's matter would be slowly forgotten over time. In the end, everything would quiet down.
At the same time, Bai Yuhao had already been in the Border of Lianluo for five to six days. Other than two days where he had received the mischievous task of patrolling and had peacefully wandered a few hundred meters around the Northeast Military Camp, he had basically had nothing to do the rest of the time.
Therefore, Bai Yuhao was basically cultivating in seclusion in his room. Lei Yong and Luo Xiusheng would often come to find him, but almost all of them would come to shut the door. However, the two of them did not get tired of it and would knock on the door to harass him whenever they had nothing to do. Thus, he got used to it.
When they were gathering today, the sixth group received a search mission. It was said that fierce Spirit Control appeared within the area under Northeast Military Camp's jurisdiction, and they attacked the travelling merchants as well as the innocent citizens of a few villages and towns within the Border of Lianluo. Therefore, the sixth squad and the other two squads were ordered to search the area.
The other two teams are from the third and fifth squads, and the captain of the fifth squadron is also an Earth Level fighter, Spirit Controller. Even though the third group didn't have Spirit Controller's Earth Battle Stage, their overall strength wasn't inferior to him at all. They were both, on average, at the sixth level of Mortal Feather Stage or above. In short, there was no way to compete with the sixth squad.
After the sixth group was fully equipped and ready to go, they left the Northeast Military Camp together with the other two teams, led by their captain Wang Meng, and headed towards the area they were going to search. Other than Bai Yuhao, Spirit Controller brought along his own Spirit Control. This Spirit Control was indispensable when carrying out missions.
"I've finally received a decent mission."
"Yeah, I finally have a chance to show off."
"However, I heard that Spirit Control is quite powerful …"
"What's there to be afraid of? There are so many of us, could it be that we're afraid of one Spirit Control?"
"That's right. As long as we perform a meritorious deed, we will be rewarded!"
"..."
Not long after they set off, Bai Yuhao, who was walking at the back, heard Spirit Controller and the others in front of him talking excitedly, as if they were scouts who had never seen the world.
However, there was a reason why Lei Yong and the others were so excited. The sixth squad was too trashy, so they were only responsible for patrolling around the camp. Under normal circumstances, they would not be able to deal with missions that were slightly dangerous. To them, carrying out a dangerous mission was no different from courting death.
If it wasn't for the other three squads temporarily having important reconnaissance missions, they wouldn't have reached Squad Six.
If he wanted to survive in this military camp, the only way was to perform meritorious deeds while carrying out important missions. But because this important task basically had no fate with their sixth squad, not mentioning how meritorious they were, it was already good that they made a mistake and got scolded.
"If our sixth squad can complete this search, we'll grab the other two!"
If they could find the Spirit Control at the front of the group and drive it away, then it would be considered as a meritorious deed. That's why, all of you better f * cking keep your spirits up, don't drag laozi down! " Zhao Daquan reprimanded him like a boss. But in fact, he was thinking that as long as he completed the quest, he would be able to take the opportunity to apply to be a member of the other teams. Even being a phoenix tail for the other teams was better than being a chicken head for the sixth team.
After all, other than the sixth squad, the other squads all had opportunities to carry out important missions. Only then would they have a way out.
After passing through a flat wasteland, the three squads entered a lush forest. Due to the dense foliage, the lighting was very dim, and the nearby villagers called this forest their Confusion Forest. This was because after entering, it was very difficult to distinguish between north, south, east, and west. Those who weren't familiar with the road would quickly get lost after entering.
And this Confusion Forest was the area that the three squads were responsible for searching.
Because at the end of the Confusion Forest was a trade road, and two days ago, there was an attack on the business journey, there was a high possibility that the Confusion Forest was the hiding place of the noisy Spirit Control.
Once they entered the Confusion Forest, the other two teams immediately went to search in one direction.
"Captain, which way should we go?" Lei Yong immediately asked Zhao Daquan.
"Nonsense, of course …" Follow one of them. We'll follow them from behind, and when we discover any clues, we'll act accordingly! " Zhao Daquan rolled his eyes and said as if he was smart. Actually, he was not familiar with the route of the Confusion Forest, just in case he did not find any Spirit Control in the busy city and got lost.
Lei Yong and the rest couldn't help but look at each other, but they were not surprised at all. Zhao Daquan was known for being timid within the Northeast Military Camp, and if it wasn't for his flattery, he wouldn't be the captain of the sixth group.
At this time, Bai Yuhao, who had been silently walking behind, suddenly felt something and immediately turned to look in a direction.
"Zhou Tie, let's go!" Seeing that the other Spirit Controller had already followed behind the fifth group with his Spirit Control under the lead of Zhao Daquan, Lei Yong and Luo Xiusheng shouted to Bai Yuhao.
Only then did Bai Yuhao turn around and follow him in a low-key manner.
Right at this moment, a pair of dark red lights flashed in the direction Bai Yuhao was looking …
