Chapter 1379: Hope of Breaking Through to the Seventh Stage Chapter 1379: Hope of Breaking Through to the Seventh Stage Previously, it had been biting its tongue and making no reduction in its demands.
Now that it had suddenly compromised, its master might very well complete his plan and leave.
That was why it had escaped.
He continued to wait!
Soon, the news came.
Eunuch Shang’s face was ashen, and his eyes were spitting fire.
From his expression, everyone could guess that something big had happened.
…
” The Grand Guardian Residence, Ji Clan, Tang Clan, Zhao Clan, and Grand Elder Zhu were all annihilated.
No one survived!”
Boom!
The five Pavilion Elders who had rushed over, including the other important figures, were all shocked.
The power that had attacked them was very powerful, and that was why they had been able to destroy them in such a short time.
A chill rose up.
If the mastermind’s target was him, wouldn’t he become one of them?
The sky was about to brighten.
A person walked over quickly.
At this moment, one could hear a pin drop on the ground.
The hurried footsteps were very ear-piercing and attracted everyone’s attention.
Everyone could not help but look over from the corner of their eyes.
They secretly guessed that something big had happened again.
Eunuch Shang walked over with a cold expression.
He led the person to a corner and returned in a moment.
Compared to before, the aura he emitted was even colder.
His face was tense, and his aged eyes burned with endless anger.
He suppressed his killing intent to the limit, not knowing how to speak.
He was afraid that he would rub salt on the Emperor’s wounds if he said this.
The Shang Emperor had never felt as aggrieved as he did tonight.
All kinds of blows came one after another.
His hands under his dragon robe clenched into fists with great strength.
Veins bulged as he ordered,” Speak!”
“There’s news from the Xia Dynasty,” Eunuch Shang said.”All the higher-ups, including Deputy Chief Li, were killed before dawn.”
These people were extremely intelligent and knew what this meant.
Even if His Majesty sent someone over to preside over it, they would not be able to transmit any information in a short period of time, let alone know the movements of the Xia Dynasty.
They would be blind.
Endure!
Continue to endure!
Now was not the time to be angry.
Being angry would not solve any problems.
Instead, it would make the mastermind even more proud.
They could not panic, or else Great Shang would have internal problems.
” Pass on my orders,” the Shang Emperor said coldly.” The Primordial Origin Demon God is to investigate at all costs.
I swear to find them!”
“Yes, sir!” Eunuch Shang accepted the order.
The Shang Emperor waved his hand, signaling for the Grand Preceptor, Grand Tutor, and the five Pavilion Elders to stay behind while the rest of them retreated.
The Grand Preceptor made a move and set up a barrier to protect this place.
“What do you think?” asked the Shang Emperor.
The wife of the Grand Preceptor was a member of the Shang family that had founded the country.
Consort Dong’s disappearance not only damaged the latter’s interests, but also his.
The two factions were so close that they were on the same side.
As long as her prince ascended the throne, their power would rise to another level and reach the peak.
He was the first to speak and share his speculations.” Let’s talk about the Xia Dynasty first.
It was very strange that they were destroyed.
These days, they have acted so many times.
Whether it was the plans of the Ninth Prince or Fu Qi, they only provided intelligence support and did not send anyone to participate.
They basically came with it to prevent this from happening!
Moreover, Li Chengfeng is very capable and careful.
He has been doing intelligence work for many years, infiltration, concealment, and so on.
No one can compare to him in this aspect.
Now that something has happened, it can only mean one thing.
Someone has betrayed us, which is why the higher-ups have been captured in one fell swoop.”
“According to your speculation, why are the middle and lower class people unharmed?” the Grand Tutor asked.
“Which benefits more, catching them all or keeping them alive?” the Grand Preceptor asked.
The former would settle everyone once and for all, and they wouldn’t have to worry about the information being leaked.
The latter would benefit more.
Even if they were suspicious, it would be very difficult to find the mole.
At a critical moment, such as a war between the two sides, if they believed the fake news and acted according to the information, the Xia Dynasty would set up an ambush in advance, which would be a destructive disaster for Great Shang.
Seeing that they agreed, he continued.
” The Netherworld Ancient Insect Clan and the mastermind have nothing to do with the Xia Dynasty.
With Xia Chengtian’s methods, if they are really his people, we can continue to cultivate them in the dark.
Once their numbers exceed a million or even two million, we will start a war.
To put it bluntly, our Great Shang will be in danger.”
“That makes sense!” The Grand Tutor nodded solemnly.
” If that was the case, with Old Master’s methods, the internal problem would have been eliminated long ago.
He wouldn’t have dragged it out until now and made his body weaker and weaker.”
Including the Shang Emperor, no one was a fool.
They were all the smartest people in the world, so it was meaningless.
The Grand Preceptor continued,” Based on the above two points, Li Chengfeng and the other higher-ups were also killed tonight.
It can only be said that the two incidents collided together and that the mastermind was someone else.”
“The Netherworld Ancient Insect has always been in the Netherworld Mountain.
Why did it take a detour to come here?” Eunuch Shang asked.
Attacking my Great Shang capital?
Taking a step back, we haven’t offended anyone or any huge forces recently.”
The Shang Emperor thought of one person-Zhang Ronghua.
He had ordered Eunuch Shang to work with Emperor Dong to get rid of him in secret.
If he could not do it, he would find a way to deal a heavy blow to him.
There was news from the Xia Dynasty that Jin Yaoguang and the others had been crippled and were bedridden for the rest of their lives.
Other than Chen Youcai and the others, the foundation of the Marquis of Shangjing’s court had been completely destroyed.
Then, there was news that Zhang Ronghua had gone to the Imperial Palace and obtained a batch of spirit herbs from Emperor Xia.
After settling the matters at hand, he announced that he would be in seclusion for three days to refine healing pills to treat Jin Yaoguang and the others.
Other than the people of the Primordial Demon God, his enemies were also waiting.
If they failed, they would make trouble in the Imperial Court and divide the official positions of these people.
If his seclusion was fake and he had actually sneaked into Great Shang, he was only at Zongshi realm eighth stage.
He did not look down on him, nor did he look down on him at all.
If he dared to leave the capital, he did not even need to do it himself.
The Empress, Guo Rong, and the others would send him on his way in an instant.
