As soon as Zhao Hai finished speaking, Zhang Zhen walked in from outside. Yu Yunlong looked at Zhang Zhen and asked, "How is it?"
Zhang Zhen's expression turned ugly as he said, "Your Majesty, I've already asked around. It's the Luminescent King's faction that has been in close contact with Fang Hua. Moreover, they've become even closer recently."
Yu Yunlong's expression changed as he coldly snorted and said, "Luminescent King, it's really them. They really have guts."
Zhao Hai turned to look at Tang Ming. Tang Ming said, "Luminescent King is Your Majesty's cousin. Back then, he had a good reputation in the Yu Family and was known as a genius. However, Your Majesty's bloodline is the direct descendant of the Yu Family. That's why Your Majesty became the King. When Your Majesty first became the King, Luminescent King had some disrespectful actions. However, after being suppressed by Your Majesty, he slowly became obedient. In recent years, they've been very obedient. Luminescent King is older than Your Majesty, so he shouldn't be that young anymore. Could it be that he still wants to do something? "
"Ambition doesn't depend on age. Most people think that as one gets older, their ambition will slowly decrease and their personality will slowly become more peaceful. However, this is actually wrong. Ambition won't decrease with age." Zhao Hai said in a deep voice.
The group nodded, then Zhao Hai said, "Tang Ming, send some people to keep an eye on this Luminescent Prince. If he makes any moves in three days, arrest him immediately. Don't make a move on him for now. Also, do your best to find out which clans are related to the Fang Family. Also, pay attention to those clans who would benefit from the Fang Family's fall. Keep an eye on them as well."
Tang Ming nodded and immediately went to prepare. Yu Yunlong looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and said, "Your Majesty, I can understand keeping an eye on the Fang Family. However, why do you want to keep an eye on the Fang Family's enemies?"
Zhao Hai said, "What if the Fang Family is just a bait thrown by the spiritual world? Fang Hua is an expert. He's not easy to control. However, that doesn't mean that he can't be controlled. Do you understand? "
Yu Yunlong was taken aback, then nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Arrange a place for me to stay in the palace. Don't let outsiders know that I'm here. Also, don't let anyone disturb me. I'll wait for them here. I want to see if they come in three days." Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Alright.
Yu Yunlong complied and said, "Yes, Your Majesty can rest assured. Zhang Zhen, you will personally arrange a room for His Majesty." Zhang Zhen complied and immediately went to prepare.
Zhao Hai looked at Yu Yunlong, then he smiled faintly and said, "Uncle Yu, I haven't seen Fatty recently, but I heard that he's been cultivating very hard. His strength is increasing very quickly. It seems like there's hope for him to ascend with me. I'm very happy."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Yu Yunlong's face showed a gratified expression. Then he smiled and said, "It's good that he's working hard. If he can ascend, then it would be great."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I believe that he can. Uncle Yu, the situation in the Five Spiritual Realms is slowly becoming clearer. The spiritual world isn't Ghost Face's opponent. However, we can't directly intervene right now. We need to wait. I think you already know the reason. What do you think?"
Yu Yunlong said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is very thoughtful. It's indeed inappropriate for us to get involved in this matter now. We need to wait for an opportunity. At the very least, we need to wait until Ghostface destroys the people from the spiritual realm."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he sighed and said, "Actually, I don't want to do this. This would cause a lot of people to die in the Five Spirit Realms. But whether it's us or Ghost Face, a lot of people would die in the Five Spirit Realms. If we make a move, then even more people would die in the Five Spirit Realms. At that time, even if we drive Ghost Face away, there would still be a lot of people who would rebel against us. And when the time comes, we would be able to take over the Five Spirit Realms easily. Moreover, in order for the Lost Soul Empire to smoothly take over the Five Spirit Realms, we can only wait."
Yu Yunlong nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Your Majesty can rest assured."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he sighed and said, "I went to the sea to take a look. I'm afraid that the sea beasts in the sea have all sided with Ghost Face. That's our biggest enemy."
Yu Yunlong replied, "I've already read the letter Your Majesty sent to Tang Ming. I didn't expect the Sea Beasts to side with Ghost Face. This is really incomprehensible."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "You're not the only one who doesn't understand, I also don't understand. The last time I went to the sea was for this matter. But in the end, I still underestimated the relationship between the Sea Beasts and Ghost Face. The Sea Beasts seem to have their own administrative system. And the higher-ups of the Sea Beasts seem to be under the control of Ghost Face. This is really strange."
Yu Yunlong nodded and didn't say anything. Zhao Hai looked at Yu Yunlong and said, "I've seen sea beasts outside of the Arctic Continent, the Acute Gold Continent, and the Tree Spirit Continent. These sea beasts are very strange, they seem to be loyal to the Ghost Mask's people. This situation is almost impossible. Originally, I thought that the Ghost Mask's Demon God was a beast-shaped deity, so he was able to subdue these sea beasts. However, when I saw the statue of the Demon God, I discovered that this wasn't the case at all. The Demon God is a humanoid deity, which makes it even stranger. Sea beasts don't submit to people, this is something that almost everyone knows. But now, they are submitting to the Ghost Mask's people, this is really strange."
Yu Yunlong frowned and said, "Is it true that they were subdued by some kind of technique?"
Zhao Hai replied, "That's the only explanation that makes sense. But I've seen those Sea Beasts and they don't seem to be affected by some kind of technique. Could it be that there's some kind of technique that I haven't seen before? I'm very curious about it. "
Yu Yunlong nodded. At this time, Zhang Zhen came in and said to Zhao Hai, "Your Majesty, the room has been prepared. It's a separate courtyard. I've also cleared the people along the way. Your Majesty can go and rest now."
Zhao Hai stood up and said, "We'll talk about the Sea Beasts later. Right now, I'm developing an artifact to deal with them. As long as the artifact is developed, we won't need to be afraid of the Sea Beasts. I'll be going to rest now. Don't let anyone disturb me for three days. Also, there's no need to bring me food. After three days, I'll be back to meet those people from the spiritual world."
Yu Yunlong and Zhang Zhen sent Zhao Hai out of the room. Then Zhang Zhen personally escorted Zhao Hai to the courtyard. After that, Zhang Zhen closed the door and returned to the study.
At this time, Yu Yunlong was already sitting down in the study. When he saw Zhang Zhen return, he said, "Your Majesty is resting?"
Zhang Zhen nodded and said, "Yes. I've already sent Your Majesty to the courtyard. The courtyard's door has already been closed. I've also instructed the people in the palace to not let them get close to the courtyard."
Yu Yunlong said, "Don't be too deliberate. People are curious. The more you don't let them go, the more they'll want to go. Although the palace has been cleaned up, it's hard to guarantee that there aren't any hidden forces. Therefore, we need to be extra careful. His Majesty personally came this time for our safety."
Zhang Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty can rest assured. I've already arranged everything. The people in the palace won't be suspicious. Nobody would go there anyway. I just ordered the people in the palace to return to their rooms. Therefore, they won't be suspicious." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty.
Yu Yunlong nodded, then he said, "Let's wait for now. Three days later, we'll see the results. Zhang Zhen, why do you think His Majesty is sure that Fang Hua and the Luminescent Prince are colluding together?"
Zhang Zhen replied, "I think His Majesty should have guessed Fang Hua's plan. Fang Hua and the others are colluding with the spiritual world in order to assassinate Your Majesty. If they succeed, then the Ice Jade Country would be like a dragon without a head. At this time, if the Luminescent Prince suddenly appears in the palace with Fang Hua's support and ascends to the throne, then even if the Eighth Prince appears, he wouldn't be able to change anything. Moreover, there's also the spiritual world. Even if the Eighth Prince appears, they can still take him down. This way, the Ice Jade Country would completely fall into their hands."
Yu Yunlong nodded, then he said, "The Luminescent Prince is also a member of the Yu Family. Moreover, when he was young, he was very famous in the Ice Jade Country. Although he's been low-key these past few years, as long as the Fang Family takes the lead, then the Luminescent Prince is very likely to ascend to the throne. But even if they ascend to the throne, what can they do? Can they order Shi Chui? Can they control the army? "
Zhang Zhen replied, "Your Majesty, how could you be confused? They don't know Shi Chui's identity, they also don't know what's going on with the army. They still think that the army is loyal to the King. As long as they become the King and get the tiger tally, then they can control the army. How could they know what the army is like? The Lost Soul Empire's army is very strict, it's impossible for outsiders to know about the army's situation."
Yu Yunlong patted his head and said, "I'm really confused. They really don't know the situation of the army. If it was before, then they would be able to control the army once they get the tiger tally. Moreover, they would have the support of Fang Hua and the others. In addition, the Luminescent Prince is also a member of the Yu Family. Therefore, the backlash from the army would be very small. And with the help of the Spiritual World's experts, they would be able to control the Ice Jade Country.
Zhang Zhen said, "I think they're really desperate. Right now, more than half of the Tree Spirit Continent has fallen into the hands of the Ghost Face Realm. If the Spiritual Realm really had the ability to fight back, then they would have already done so. They wouldn't have waited until now. Last time, the Ghost Face Realm and the Spiritual Realm fought in front of two armies. In the end, the Spiritual Realm suffered a crushing defeat. They lost the last resistance of the Ice Soaring Country and the Icebound Country, allowing the Ghost Face Realm to take the two countries in one fell swoop. Since we didn't do anything, the Ghost Face Realm has nothing to worry about. They can now focus on dealing with the Tree Spirit Continent. Because of this, the people of the Tree Spirit Continent can't stop them.
That's why they're so anxious. "Yu Yunlong nodded and said," Right, they're anxious. Let's watch a good show in three days. "
