After Tang En and the others decided on the action plan, everyone took action that night. Small teams were dispatched and quickly controlled the key areas of Alinx.
Although some people noticed something, there was no way to stop them because Aubrey and the others had a legitimate reason for substituting people.
Alinx soon fell into the actual control of Aubrey and Aradeline.
The Kadir Family.
Charles frowned. At this moment, he still did not know what had happened outside, but the news from Ellington had come back.
His father, who had obtained great power, had died in battle?
With that lord accompanying him, how could a mere Ellington stop them?!
But the final result was a complete annihilation?!
What was even more unbelievable was that His Majesty Girard had also been imprisoned by Tang En!
His Majesty Girard was a Ninth Level Supreme Martial Artist!
Tang En could even defeat Prince Girard easily. Moreover, news from the allied forces of Martani and Aradeline said that Tang En had actually torn the earth and created a bottomless rift valley to stop the army from advancing …
Could he be a Legendary Master?!
But how could this be?!
How could there be such a young Legendary Master?!
"Uneasy …"
Charles sensed an uneasy atmosphere. Tang En had made such a big move this time, it was absolutely impossible for him to suddenly stop. After imprisoning His Majesty Girard, his next step would definitely be to settle the score with Charles.
Charles suddenly stood up. "No, I have to ask the Venerable Ones for help!"
"If the Venerable Ones you're talking about are the Venerables of the Dark Serpent, don't waste your energy."
A teasing voice suddenly sounded.
"Who is it?!"
Charles abruptly turned around and struck out with his palm. A black Qi whistled and flew over. Then, he pulled out the long sword on the wall. All the movements were done in one go. Then, he saw the face of the person who had come.
"Tang En!"
Charles's expression became extremely ugly. He had guessed that Tang En would come to him, but he did not expect him to act so quickly!
"You know it's me, yet you still intend to struggle?"
Tang En sneered and said, "You can take off your temporary regent hat."
"How dare you!"
Charles tried to put on a brave front as he roared, "Tang En! How dare you imprison His Majesty Girard and attempt to assassinate the acting king? You've already committed a serious crime! Surrender now! Perhaps I can — "
"Idiot."
Tang En casually flicked his hand, and the long sword in Charles' hand flew out. Seeing that the situation was not good, Charles turned around and fled.
However, he immediately found himself unable to move.
Charles was terrified. "What did you do to me?!"
"Don't worry, I won't take your life yet. After all, you still have some value."
Tang En looked at him with a smile, then said to the window, "You can come in now."
A figure walked in timidly.
Charles's pupils constricted. "Morton?! You really did betray the Cadier family! "
That's right, the one who followed Tang En was Morton.
During the incident in the capital, Morton had already been protected by Aubrey and Ardern. He even told them everything he knew about the Cadier family.
After Tang En returned, he directly sought refuge with Tang En — he had no other choice.
After signing the contract, Morton became one of Tang En's chess pieces. His mission was to help Fiona control the Cadier family.
"Betray? What do you mean betray? I think you're the ones who betrayed the Cadier family! "
Morton, who could not take it anymore, shouted at Charles, "You gave the money the family earned to that damned Dark Serpent in exchange for some blessings. In the end, you turned yourselves into something neither human nor ghost, and even assassinated the king with Girard. Let me tell you, I won't turn into a ghost like you!"
"Shut up! You bastard! The Divine Master's greatness is not something you can imagine! "
Charles cursed with a ferocious expression. "You dared to lay a hand on me, so be prepared for the Divine Master's divine punishment!"
Charles was very confident. The Cadier family provided a lot of wealth to the Dark Serpent. If they lost the Cadier family, the Dark Serpent would definitely suffer a great loss. The Divine Master would definitely avenge him!
"The Divine Master?"
Morton's face was full of mockery. "Brother, you still don't know? The Dark Serpent has been destroyed by Master. That Divine Master Jassas is already dead. Are you still waiting for him to avenge you? "
Charles' expression changed drastically. "What!? That's impossible! "
"Nothing is impossible. They're just a bunch of clowns."
Tang En waved his hand. "Morton, don't waste your breath on him. Remember what I told you. Take control of the Cadier family as soon as possible. Without your father and brother's obstruction, it shouldn't be a problem."
Morton lowered his head respectfully. "I'll complete the task as soon as possible."
"Then what should I say when the people in the family ask where Charles went tomorrow?"
Morton said without hesitation, "Charles is suspected of conspiring with Prince Girard to assassinate His Majesty Victor. As a result, he's been detained by the royal guards for investigation."
"Very good. I hope you won't disappoint me."
By the time Tang En finished speaking, both he and Charles had already disappeared.
Morton waited for a long time before he dared to raise his head. Looking at the empty study, he still could not believe that he had become the patriarch of the Cadier family just like that.
Looking at the chair that only the patriarch had the right to sit in, Morton suppressed his excitement and quickly walked over. He sat down, and then …
"It doesn't seem very comfortable … It's not as comfortable as Ellington's sofa …"
At the same time, in the Spade family, Fiona, Elsa, Vanilla, and the others were doing the same thing with Lillian.
The moment they saw Makarov, Elsa slapped him into the ground and imprisoned him. At the same time, Fiona helped Lillian gather the main management members of the Spade family and used Lillian's identity to temporarily control the Spade family.
Although those people had their doubts, after Makarov became the patriarch, the Cadier family had been constantly infiltrated by the Spade family. They were already dissatisfied with him, so they did not say anything about Lillian's promotion.
Of course, Fiona and the others would not let those people express their opinions and opinions.
All those who refused to obey were imprisoned.
Of course, people would bleed to death in the process. This was unavoidable.
At dawn the next day, all the security personnel in Alinx had been replaced by Aubry and the others. After the royal guards were cleaned up, the remaining personnel were relocated to their original positions. With Tang En's help, all the personnel in the palace who had been corrupted by Girard were replaced.
In just one night, the personnel in the palace were cleaned up.
The Empire's First and Second Legions had taken over the security of the entire city of Alinx. They planted spies at every intersection to monitor any suspicious characters at all times.
At the same time, Fiona's personnel had also begun to prepare in advance. They arranged all the work in their hands and were ready to take over the work of the Spade family and the Cadier family at any time.
All that was left was for Lillian and Morton to find an opportunity to plant people.
At this time, Tang En's group brought Girard, Charles, Marcalo, and the others to the palace to receive Pope Jesolini XXIII and Saintess Eluri.
After the pope carefully checked and confirmed that there was indeed the aura of Chaos on Girard and the others, he said with a very serious expression, "Are you ready?"
"Of course."
Tang En nodded. He had been busy for so long just for this moment.
"Then let us begin."
The pope sighed and prayed in a low voice. As he prayed, his body lit up with a very rich holy light. The warm holy light made everyone around him feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze. However, Girard and the other two contorted their bodies painfully under the holy light.
A moment later, the sky above Alinx, which had just ushered in the dawn, suddenly shone with a brilliant holy light.
The residents who had just woken up felt the warmth on their bodies and looked at the sky in surprise.
There were still a few months to the Glorious Festival. Why did the pope suddenly cast a large-scale holy light divine spell?
The situation in the throne room suddenly appeared in the sky.
"Residents of Alinx, the gods are with us."
The pope looked forward. Everyone who saw the mirage in the sky felt as if they were looking at the pope.
"Today, I, as well as everyone beside me, will be announcing an extremely heart-wrenching piece of news."
"Our king, Victor's death was not because of Master Clark's betrayal."
"Master Clark died protecting His Majesty Victor. He was a hero. We should be grateful to him, to the City of Silver."
"His Majesty Victor's sudden death was because of … them!"
The pope pointed at Girard and the others and suddenly said, "Our prince, Girard, and Charles and Frank of the Kadir family, were corrupted by the power of darkness. They joined forces with the heretics of the Dark Serpent to create this evil and bloody plan!"
"The Dark Serpent corrupted Prince Girard and made him assassinate His Majesty Victor! They helped Prince Girard ascend to the throne and then used his power to start a war! "
"All of this was the Dark Serpent's scheme!"
The pope's voice spread throughout Alinx. Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar.
"His Majesty Victor was assassinated by Prince Girard?! He actually killed his own father?! "
"Didn't you hear? Prince Girard was corrupted by the power of the Dark Serpent. That was not his intention! "
"But this is the truth! How can a person who killed his own father be qualified to ascend to the throne and become our king?! "
"More importantly, the Dark Serpent wants to start a war!"
Apart from those in power with inflated ambitions or those who chased after benefits, no one liked war.
Everyone who heard the news was worried. The Dark Serpent dared to assassinate Victor, support the new king of puppets, and start a war.
"This is the evidence that they were corrupted by the evil power!"
The pope suddenly shouted, and a dense holy light blessing enveloped Girard and the others. They immediately let out heart-wrenching screams under the holy light, and thick black smoke rose from their bodies.
