Shang Jing Imperial Palace, Nine Layer Forbidden Area, Fang Hua Court …
Crown Prince Beitang Wang Chuan was in a pavilion, currently sipping tea and playing chess with the commander of the Judgement Army, Lin Yi. Outside the pavilion, the garden was filled with blooming gorse flowers, filling the entire Fang Hua Court with spring.
Today, Bei Hai Harbor was in turmoil, and Shang Jing City was also in turmoil. However, Beitang Wang Chuan did not leave the Imperial Palace.
As for the commander of the Judgement Army, he stayed by the Crown Prince's side to protect him.
The information obtained by the Judgement Army was very important, and those people had confirmed that they were from the Blood Demon Church and wanted to harm Beitang Wang Chuan.
However, those with high positions and power all needed to rely on Zhou Xiang to plan the overall situation.
What if those exposed people from the Blood Demon Church were just bait?
With the Judgement Army and the Crown Prince mobilizing experts to Bei Hai Harbor, what would happen if the capital was empty and someone took advantage of the situation to invade?
As a result, the entire Shang Jing City was relaxed on the outside, but tense on the inside. Countless experts were in hiding, but the Judgement Army was ready to set out, and the four camps outside Shang Jing City were all on standby.
Some hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the palace, and Beitang Wang Chuan, who was thinking about placing a chess piece, could not help but pause.
Lin Yi smiled slightly, "There should be a conclusion to the matter!"
Sure enough, in less than ten seconds, a beautiful female official carried a tray and entered Fang Hua Court. She slightly curtsied in front of Beitang Wang Chuan and Lin Yi, then placed the tray in front of them before bowing and leaving.
Inside the tray, there was a secret document from the Judgement Army, as well as a few scrolls.
Lin Yi picked up the secret document and opened it. After glancing through it, he smiled slightly, "Congratulations, Your Highness. The operation at Bei Hai Harbor went smoothly. Aside from a remnant soul of the Seven Seas Shark Demon that managed to escape with a Soul Stealing Pearl, all the people from the Blood Demon Church that participated were killed. The Altar Master of the Blood Demon Church was destroyed by Li Fire Heaven Lord's Li Fire Divine Domain. The fleet led by Wu Qi Long of the navy captured the Seven Seas Shark Demon's lair, Demon Shark Island. The five thousand pirates on Demon Shark Island were all killed, and the rats in Shang Jing City were captured …"
Beitang Wang Chuan also smiled, "That Seven Seas Shark Demon is quite lucky, to actually have a treasure like the Soul-Stealing Pearl!"
"We didn't think about it before. If we had known, we would have arranged things better and wouldn't have let him escape. Legend has it that the Seven Seas Shark Demon once entered the Demonic Dragon Palace in the deep sea. He might have obtained the Soulstealing Orb from the Demonic Dragon Palace. We were careless …" Lin Yi said with some self-blame.
"Everything doesn't have to be perfect. This is the will of the heavens. Even if that Seven Seas Shark Demon manages to escape with a wisp of his soul, he won't be able to cause any trouble in the future. I'll just kill him if I encounter him again!" Beitang Wang Chuan was in a good mood, "Originally, I thought that there would be some sort of commotion in Shangjing today. Who knew that Shangjing would be peaceful. It seems that we were a bit cautious. This time, the intelligence that the Adjudicating Army received was accurate, and they saved me. They also got rid of the snakes and rats that were hidden in Shangjing. This is a meritorious service for the country.
"Yes!" Lin Yi nodded in agreement. The Judgement Army had done a good job this time. As the commander of the Judgement Army, Lin Yi felt proud and was in a good mood.
"Right, what's that?" Beitang Wang Chuan saw the picture scroll on the tray. He picked it up and opened it. When he found that it was a portrait, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"This matter is about to be reported to Your Highness. This is what we found from the snakes and rats. According to the people of the Blood Demon Church, this is a kill order issued by the Altar Master of the Blood Demon Church. These people are Space Traversers. I heard that they have already arrived at the Gold Moon Continent and possibly the Shang Dynasty. I don't know why the Blood Demon Church would order to kill these people …" Lin Yi opened the portrait. When Lin Yi saw the face in the portrait, he was stunned.
Others didn't know who the person in the portrait was, but it was impossible for Lin Yi not to know. This was because that person was a member of the Judgement Army's Shadow Squad, a secret elite of the Judgement Army that he directly commanded. The intelligence broker of the Blood Demon Church's operation was the person in the portrait — Xia Pingan.
It could be said that the reason why the Judgement Army's operation was so successful this time was because the information brought by Xia Pingan was accurate.
Xia Pingan had not contacted the Judgement Army these days. Lin Yi even suspected that Xia Pingan had been killed. He even sent people to search for him in Shangjing City, but to no avail.
He didn't expect to see Xia Pingan's portrait again in the information of the Space Traversers that the Blood Demon Church was chasing.
Beitang Wang Chuan immediately noticed that Lin Yi's expression was strange. "What's wrong?"
Lin Yi sighed and handed the portrait in his hand to Beitang Wang Chuan, "This person came to Shangjing earlier and wanted to join the Judgement Army. Because of his outstanding performance, he was accepted by the Judgement Army's Shadow Guards. Didn't Your Highness ask who received information about the Demon Blood Guards yesterday? The one who sent the information back was this person!"
It was the person who sent the information! "Beitang Wang Chuan looked at Xia Pingan's portrait in disbelief." This person is a Space Traverser and joined the Shadow Squad. He sent the information of the Blood Demon Church? "
"I'm afraid so!" Lin Yi nodded.
These people from the Blood Demon Church wanted to destroy these Space Traversers, and the information about the Blood Demon Church being destroyed happened to come from this person.
Could this be a coincidence?
But how could there be such a coincidence in this world?
Lin Yi and Beitang Wang Chuan looked at each other. Their expressions were a little strange. Lin Yi's face even had a trace of indescribable awkwardness.
A few seconds later, Beitang Wang Chuan was the first to clap his hands and laugh. "Interesting, interesting. This person actually used the entire Shang Dynasty and the Judgement Army as weapons and made us do it willingly. But I'm very curious. How did this person know about the Blood Demon Church? Could it be a coincidence? "
Lin Yi thought for a while and instantly cleared up the thoughts in his mind. "According to this person, he came from the Southern Region. Among the members of the Blood Demon Church, the Tang family's elder, Tang Wei, also came from the Southern Region. I suspect that this person may have already known the identity of the Tang family's elder, and he coincidentally met the Tang family's elder in Shang Jing City. He followed the Tang family's elder and coincidentally discovered the conspiracy of the Blood Demon Church. Then, he intervened in this matter …"
Beitang Wang Chuan nodded. "Not bad, not bad. Your speculation is reasonable. But the Blood Demon Church must be in a very secretive place to discuss important matters. This person's strength should not be strong. How did he get such accurate information?"
Lin Yi thought again. "Previously, he obtained an illusory child's Boundary Pearl in the night market. Because of this Boundary Pearl, he caused some trouble and was wanted by the police. I suspect that he may have integrated with the illusory child's Boundary Pearl!"
"He can integrate with the illusory child's Boundary Pearl?" Beitang Wang Chuan's face showed a trace of surprise. "In the entire Shang Dynasty, there are only a few people who can integrate with the illusory child's Boundary Pearl. Why is this person wanted?"
Lin Yi told him about the matter of Xia Pingan being wanted. Of course, the things that Lin Yi said were things that the Ruling Army knew about with evidence. As for why Sun Hao disappeared, there was no evidence that it was related to Xia Pingan, so Lin Yi naturally did not say it.
"Why didn't you say this earlier?" Beitang Wang Chuan asked.
Lin Yi smiled bitterly and spread his hands. "First, to avoid suspicion. Second, I was afraid that if we intervened, he would be exposed. Previously, I wanted him to infiltrate the Blood Demon Church!"
Beitang Wang Chuan sighed and shook his head. "I didn't expect that the disappearance of the nephew of a small police chief in Shangjing City would involve so many things. The family of a district police chief can actually casually use the police to arrest people in Shangjing City and abuse their power. It seems that some of the rats in the police station should be cleaned up. This time, they will be cleaned up together. You can arrange the details. When the time comes, I will approve it. It will not involve the Ruling Army!"
Lin Yi saw that His Highness the Crown Prince was a little angry, so he did not say anything more. This time, cleaning up the remnants of the Blood Demon Church in Shangjing City would bring a lot of people. It was too easy to find a reason to drag some people into the water. As long as they reported it, the Crown Prince would write a big stroke, and some people would be finished.
"Right, what is this person's name?" Beitang Wang Chuan looked at the portrait of Xia Pingan, thought of something, and asked.
"This person is called Xia Pingan!" Lin Yi replied. "Your Highness, please tell us how to deal with these Sky Traversers!"
"Since these people are wanted by the Blood Demon Church, then we will do the opposite. They are just Sky Traversers. If we can make them work for our Shang Dynasty, that would be the best. If we can find them, try to rope them in. This Xia Pingan is very interesting and can be considered a great talent. If he appears again, bring him for me to take a look …"
"Yes!"
