Chapter 273 Lies Don’t Hurt (Part )

Mingde Hall, Laboratory No. 3.

"Luo Yu, His Majesty has an order." The servant who delivered the order spoke slowly.

Luo Yu straightened his manners. Although he had a close relationship with Xu Tianran and his status was not that of an ordinary member of Mingde Hall, the Sun and Moon Empire required clear distinctions between superiors and subordinates.

"I wonder what His Majesty wants to tell you?" Luo Yu asked the servant.

"Your Majesty said you will understand once you go there..."

The servant's face showed no joy or sadness, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

However, the accompanying personnel had strange expressions on their faces, and this abnormal difference left Luo Yu a little confused.

"I see……"

"Please wait a moment, my Lord. His Majesty knows that you have always been honest, so he specially awarded you a house in Mingdu. His Majesty also said that you don't have to refuse it, as you deserve it."

The servant handed a small stack of land deeds to Luo Yu. Looking at the deeds in his hand, Luo Yu felt even more confused.

What on earth is Xu Tianran doing? !

…………

"For a long time, Vina..."

Sometimes some unintentional things are the most frustrating, especially the fact that Xu Tianran forced someone to come to him.

Never mind. At worst I can just ignore him for a month.

No, one year! One year!!!
…………

"Your Majesty, Lord Luoyu has arrived at the mansion." The attendant replied respectfully.

Xu Tianran asked with interest: "Is Luo Yu satisfied?"

"This, this..." The servant was sweating profusely and stammered, not daring to speak.

Xu Tianran frowned slightly. The women he sent to Luo Yu were all top women in the royal family, so there shouldn't be any accidents.

"Say, I forgive you."

Xu Tianran frowned even deeper.

"Your Majesty, I dare not..." The servant became even more frightened and knelt on the ground, his body trembling constantly.

"Speak, if you don't speak it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor!" Xu Tianran didn't care about the life or death of the person in front of him, he wanted to know Luo Yu's reaction at that time.

The attendant hesitated for a moment, then took out a video device.

Luo Yu in the picture didn't say anything at first, but looking at Luo Yu's rich facial expressions, he finally turned into a crazy question about who the hell gave His Majesty the idea...

After reading it, Xu Tianran was speechless and silent for a long time. He slowly said, "You're right. Maybe I shouldn't have read it..."

"Forget it, since the decision has been made, he should just accept it. If he takes a fancy to a girl in the future, these people will serve as his maids."

After the attendants left, Juzi asked, "Your Majesty, is Luoyu dissatisfied with the gift?"

Xu Tianran smiled bitterly and said, "As the Queen expected, Luo Yu is indeed unhappy."

"Since he doesn't like it, then there's no need to send it again in the future. Just let him do as he wishes."

There was a hint of surprise in Orange's eyes. Sure enough, the boy was still the same as before, without changing at all.

"I really don't know whether I should be happy for him or worried about his future... Never mind, that kid still has a long life ahead of him, and those old guys won't want him to leave so early."

Xu Tianran seemed to have thought of something as he flipped through the files of recent years.

"Your Majesty, don't you need to explain what happened with Luoyu?" Juzi hesitated for a moment as he looked at the video that was still playing repeatedly.

Xu Tianran laughed, "No need, otherwise, there will be no one to take the blame."

…………

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

"Although our plan was partially successful, the price was heavy. More than fifty people were executed..." Yan Shaozhe looked at Old Xuan and felt a little bit reluctant.

For them, although they can accept the loss, if it is just to rescue the members of the royal family and maintain the stability of the core of the empire, those sects and other academies are destined to be abandoned.

This price was a bit too heavy, because they were all teachers in the academy and had experienced the student and teacher eras. "Let Yuhao and the others take care of the future. I believe that they will succeed. If they send out a distress signal, we will have to take action again. Sacrifice is inevitable. If we don't choose to give up some of them, the Sun Moon Empire will always use this as a constraint to suppress us." Elder Lin said, he knew very well what the price was.

"For the royal families of the three empires, are we really worth it?"

"This is the decision we must make. If the royal family also falls, then our three empires will really collapse on their own." Yan Shaozhe had a determined look on his face. He knew very well the cost of this action.

This is the price!
“But, there have been rumors recently that we have disregarded the lives of the hostages from the three empires and rashly violated the agreement and launched an attack on the Sun-Moon Empire…” Fan Yu was a little overwhelmed. For him, although he now has a position in the Poseidon Pavilion, he has almost no qualifications to participate in decision-making on many matters.

Just like the three parties had been arguing over the negotiation location, the final conclusion was still to be held in Maple Leaf City. The cooperation between the three empires was not very close.

"Fan Yu, correct your attitude. What we are going to do now is destined to require sacrifice. Are we going to give up all the people in our three empires just because of some people?" Yan Shaozhe looked at Fan Yu, the warning in his eyes was self-evident.

"But, those rumors..." Qian Duoduo looked at Mr. Xuan and asked tentatively.

"Since it's just a rumor, there's no need for us to care about it..."

"I see……"

The subsequent arrangements are still proceeding in an orderly manner, and their progress will be transmitted to Shrek's Poseidon Pavilion through certain specific channels. What they have to do now is to interfere with the Sun Moon Empire from time to time, and then use this to buy time for Huo Yuhao and his party.

There is always a price to pay, but they can afford it.

"How are Wang Qiuer and her group doing?" asked Old Xuan with some concern.

Xian Lin'er sorted out the information and continued, "The way they entered the Sun Moon Empire was simply to disguise themselves and sneak in. So far, they have not been followed or exposed. Through some connections, they have received very little interrogation. So far, everything is intact."

"What you mean is..." Yan Shaozhe's eyes changed a little, as if he remembered something.

"I just borrowed the Su family's relationship. So far, the Su family still agrees, so..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Xuan subconsciously held his forehead with his hand. Although the decision was correct, but having to pass through the Su family's business route in the middle of the journey was indeed a bit... beyond his expectation.

The rescue mission is still proceeding in an orderly manner.

Sunrise City.

The inspections in big cities were extremely strict, and they had no way of sneaking in. If their soul power was low, they would be questioned at most, but it was different for them. Their soul power was either Soul Emperor or Soul King...

Even if Huo Yuhao could hide himself, he couldn't hide it from everyone under such tight protection.

"How about we break in?" Xu Sanshi hesitated and asked slowly.

“No, I don’t think we can hide well in Risheng City after we break in.” Huo Yuhao shook his head, disagreeing with Xu Sanshi’s plan.

"Not to mention that we have no way of confirming, under the current circumstances, even whether there are hostages held in Risheng City is a question. If we are exposed now, the gain will outweigh the loss." Wang Dong'er looked at the strict patrol and signaled everyone to give up the method of forceful attack.

Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong'er and continued to ask: "Wang Dong, tell me what you think."

"We are still some distance away from the city gate. If we use a violent attack, we can certainly force our way in. However, let's not talk about whether they will take out more powerful soul guides behind the city gate. If we rush in and they close the city gate, we will be like sheep entering."

"The city defense of this big city is definitely not comparable to those small cities before, not to mention that our group is such a conspicuous target. Once we take action, we will have almost no chance of escape. Even if we do, the price we pay is not something we can afford now. The current risk is obviously not proportional to the value brought by our actions." Wang Dong'er did not elaborate too much, but just pointed out the current situation.

“I have a way to sneak in, but I can’t take you in with me, unless you stay behind to look after our soul guides and serve as our support outside the city.” Huo Yuhao looked at everyone apologetically.

There are many caravans coming and going. It is not surprising that some caravans encounter some powerful leaders. The caravans of some big families are also huge in scale.

Wang Dong'er looked at the crowd and made her own judgment. "It's best for us to go in batches. If we have soul guides, we can have people guard outside the city. I just asked Brother He, and those detectors can't perfectly detect our soul power. So if we want to go into the city to get information, we can only abandon the soul guides."

"Yuhao, you are the captain, you make the decision." Beibei looked at Huo Yuhao.

"How about this, Zhong Yiping, Luo Lie, Feng Tianyang, the three of you stay outside the city and take care of the soul guides. The rest of you will go into the city in batches. Except for some necessary communication soul guides, do not bring in any offensive weapons higher than level four. In three days, we will meet under the big tree in the wilderness south of the city."

The order was issued, and everyone started their own actions. There was more than one place to enter the city. What they had to do now was to break up into smaller groups. Although it was risky to go without weapons, as Shrek students, their combat power was still outstanding even without soul guides. Not to mention that they didn't need soul guides at all before.

Everyone dispersed, and the alarm still sounded when they passed the city gate. Wang Dong'er didn't know why, but the detector had no effect on her, as if it was blocked by something.

Huo Yuhao deceived the soul guide device through his mental power, but Bei Bei was not so lucky.

"Stop, please put down your weapons and cooperate with the inspection, otherwise we will use force to suppress you!" The person in charge of the inspection immediately became nervous. Standing in front of him was Shi Beibei, a Soul Emperor.

"Is there any problem?" Beibei looked at them calmly.

"After our detection, we found that you are a Soul Emperor. For the safety of Risheng City, please hand over your personal belongings to us for inspection. If you refuse, you can choose to leave." In view of Beibei's powerful strength, he did not dare to offend him.

After briefly checking Beibei's storage soul guide, they asked Beibei about the purpose of his trip.

These interrogations were actually optional, they were just necessary procedures, mainly because no powerful soul guides were found on Beibei, so after completing the procedures, Beibei was let go.
