Chapter 1185 What!?
After Huan Yin left, Rong and Zheng Li did not dare to neglect in the slightest, and quickly started to deal with the matter of sending more manpower to mine actinic essence. Time is too tight for them. They are really afraid that they will not be able to complete the task in time, and that the reward will turn into a punishment.
Fortunately, they usually run the army fairly strictly. Therefore, in only about half an hour, they succeeded in getting General Li to take the 30,000 urgently summoned soldiers and set off towards the place where actinic essence was mined. Moreover, they were still marching at full speed.
So, after more than an hour passed, the messengers accompanying the army turned back and told Rong and Zheng Li that General Li had brought the soldiers and was fully cooperating with the big businessmen in the army to mine actinic essence. Breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, it was almost exactly an hour and a half since Huan Yin left Ku's military tent.
After the ordering soldiers retreated, Ku and Zheng Li, who were already relatively confident in their hearts, finally sat down on their seats again. After looking at each other, they laughed.
So, in the next half hour, Xu felt that the mining of actinic essence was almost certain, and the two of them felt a little excited, both imagining the beauty of being rewarded by Luo Hu. They did not leave the military tent, but happily drank good tea while chatting about some happy things.
The more they talked, the more intoxicated they became, and their hearts became more and more relaxed. Even later, when half an hour of their conversation was almost over, Ku Yi was so happy that he promised on the spot that out of the 30,000-strong army, 10,000 would be under Zheng Li's command. In this way, the atmosphere in the military tent changed. It’s even more joyful.
However, just when the two of them were extremely happy, a panicked female voice suddenly appeared outside the tent, breaking the harmonious atmosphere in the tent.
"Marshal, no... no, something big has happened!"
Ku and Zheng Li frowned at the sound. They thought that the person speaking was really good at spoiling people's interest. He didn't show up sooner or later, but it was too late to talk about something important now.
However, the two of them instantly recognized that the voice belonged to Phantom. So, Zheng Li turned to Ku, and when he saw Ku's bone-white palm holding the tea cup tightly, he said: "Marshal, although Phantom has always been ineffective in doing things recently, but she is so panicked, I am afraid she really has something important to report. It’s better to invite her in for a word.”
His withered fingers slid over the tea cup, making a scratching sound. Zheng Li saw this and said: "Phantom has been a little unable to grasp the key points recently, and always bothers adults with trivial things. But now that we The most important things have been decided, so you might as well listen to her. If she really disturbs your good mood with trivial matters, it won't be too late to hold her accountable. "
Finally, Ku nodded, then turned and walked towards his marshal's seat. After seeing Ku sitting down, Zheng Li cleared his throat and said, "Master Phantom, please come into the tent and talk."
Soon, the curtains of the big tent fluttered, and a black shadow swam in on the ground. Ku and Zheng Li didn't pay much attention at first, but when they saw there were many bloody scratches on the black shadow, their expressions changed.
If others don't understand Phantom, it doesn't mean the two of them don't understand either. These scratches are a direct manifestation of serious injuries to Phantom!
Phantom was seriously injured, who did it? Who dares to touch the head of the Western Eight-Day Intelligence Agency? And who has the ability to do so?
"Sir...Sir, something bad is going on. In all the cities in the Western Eight Heavens, more than 90% of the people in our intelligence department have been killed, and almost the entire army has been wiped out!" Phantom walked to the middle of the tent, not even bothering to salute. If you are polite, just say it directly.
"What!?" Zheng Li exclaimed and stood up immediately. And standing up with him was Generalissimo Ku.
"Sir, this is absolutely true! Ever since the arrival of the high-ranking patrol envoy Yan Yang, I have always felt that there are undercurrents surging in the major cities in the eight days to the west, and something is wrong everywhere, so I have already sent all the intelligence department personnel to dispatched, keeping an eye on the situation in case of any eventuality, but just now, I found that none of my people could be contacted. They... they were all attacked by evil hands! The man who came towards me was so powerful that he almost killed me on the spot!"
"My subordinates have now found out that the person who assassinated the soldiers of our Intelligence Department is a member of the Yan family and a member of the senior patrol envoy. They have united long ago, and I am afraid they are going to target you, the Marshal!"
The phantom's voice echoed in the military tent, causing Deku and Zheng Li to stand blankly on the spot, their heads buzzing. As for Phantom, the amount of information was too much for them, and they couldn't react at the moment.
But at this moment, there was a sudden uproar outside the military tent, and all the soldiers in the army screamed, wondering what happened.
Ku and Zheng Li rushed outside the military tent, looked up at the sky, and saw an unimaginably large black jade plaque floating in the sky eight days above the entire west. On top of this black jade plaque, several large characters are shining brightly: Advanced Parade Envoy Yan Yang!
Under the huge black jade sign, a man in black is floating. His eyes were sharp, and after scanning the bottom, he spoke slowly: "The Eight Heavenly Marshal of the West, Kun, relies on the power in his hands to cultivate his power privately and has evil intentions. I, Yan Yang, the senior patrol envoy of Central Shanxiantian, today, on the orders of the emperor, We are here to capture the rebels and eradicate the chaos. Today’s matter is only about Ku’s fault. As long as there is no connection with Ku, there is no need to worry. However, if anyone is in league with Ku, we will kill them all!”
The man in black is Yan Yang, the high-level parade envoy Huan Yin transformed into. At this moment, although his speaking speed was not fast, his voice was like thunder, rumbling in all directions, allowing everyone who was eight days in the west to hear it clearly.
"What!?" Zheng Li exclaimed, and when he and Ku both looked at Huan Yin in the air, they saw Huan Yin specifically looking at each other as his eyes swept downwards. In this eyes, there is only endless coldness and killing, and there is no longer the politeness before.
The change came too fast and too urgently, making it difficult for Rong and Zheng Li to accept it. However, when they quickly thought about the previous words of the phantom, they still figured it out. From the beginning to the end, Huan Yin never thought about showing kindness to the two of them. Huan Yin stayed in the West for so long for eight days and did many things, all for today!
Looking around the military camp, Ku found that the way his soldiers looked at him had changed. Just when Ku was about to get angry, Zheng Li quickly grabbed Ku and walked back to the tent.
"Sir, things have developed to this point. What we need to think about now is how to protect ourselves. Regardless of whether what Yan Yang said is true or false, we must protect ourselves and at least strive for a chance to prove our innocence in front of the emperor!" Zheng Li said.
How could Ku not understand what Zheng Li said? But now he was so angry that he felt like he was about to explode.
And it was at this time that they all saw Phantom, the leader of the Intelligence Department, who was still in the camp.
Ku's whole body seemed to be on fire in an instant, and Zheng Li said: "Master Phantom, you... As the director of my intelligence department, you are responsible for keeping an eye on all changes in the west for eight days. But... But it’s good for you. Now that the incident has been exposed, what’s the use of reporting it now?”
"You are the top intelligence and news person in the Eight Heavens of the West, but you don't know everything until all your people are killed. Are you a shadow, or is someone else a shadow?"
When Phantom saw Ku's look, he immediately shrank into the corner and trembled: "This... this... I'm afraid it's the Shadow Lord, the Shadow Lord mistaken me!"
This time, it was no longer Zheng Li who responded to Phantom. Ku had already charged towards the phantom angrily, his eyes filled with red light!
