"A few." Shang Bei replied cautiously: "They are a few smugglers, this lowly one's goods were all sold to them. Most of them do not obey Temple, but this lowly one does not dare guarantee that they are not reliable. "
"Carl, I am sorry, but you will have to work hard for a period of time." Sacred Son Charles' words were sincere: "The reconstruction of Blue Wind City is extremely important, I am not at ease to hand it over to others, so I can only let you continue to take charge."
Carl immediately went forward and greeted respectfully: "Your Highness."
The sudden attack caused Carl to be stunned, and only after a moment did he regain his senses.
But today, he did not appear at the construction site, but stood guard outside Sacred Son Charles' residence.
After the unpleasant visit, he returned to his residence as per usual. Rebuilding a city, and a majestic one at that, the workload was immense. Other than the Western Traders' own strength, he still needed to unify the strength of the other organizations, which was not an easy task.
He walked into his study and prepared to start work as per usual.
Her first thought was to communicate with Tang Tian.
Sacred Son Charles was the key. Sacred Son Charles' favoritism towards Lance was obvious.
"Do it well." Charles patted Carl's shoulder and encouraged him.
When he knew that Mu Zhi Xia had personally entered the Savage Continent, he knew that Mu Zhi Xia's target was them, thus he came up with the brazen plan.
He was not angry, the other party could treat him as air, but he could not. With the identity of a Honorable Martial Banner of Knights, if he offended the other party, he would be killed in one slash, and he would not even have a chance to seek justice.
Suddenly, his throat was tightly gripped by a hand, and he could not make a sound.
~ Gou Cheng WenDao has finally taken over the Shang Continent. ~
~ If the Southern Alliance took the initiative to retreat, then what is their next plan? ~ Sophie's mind flashed with a few possibilities, for example attacking the supply line, or surrounding the Shang Continent.
Up until now, the Southern Alliance's performance in the battle had exceeded everyone's expectations. Regardless of whether it was the commander in chief's commanding ability or the fighting strength of the army, they were all outstanding.
Sophie was still worried, but she did not say anything inappropriate.
Of course, to attract Sacred Son Charles's attention and interest was not easy, at least he had to do it beautifully.
Sophie did not seem to like him, but he did not care. He understood people like Sophie very well. Even if she didn't like him, she wouldn't interfere with Royal Highness Charles' judgment.
Charles continued: "There are some matters that I need to return to Temple immediately. I've already ordered Lieutenant General Lance to investigate the Golden Province Bandits. Temple will send a new Lieutenant General to help Lieutenant General Lance. You only have one task, and that is to rebuild Blue Wind City. For your safety, I will leave a few Honorable Martial Banner of Knights behind until Blue Wind City is completed. "
Ah Xin looked around, feeling a little excited. As he watched the battle plan he had personally formulated gradually materialize, the battle intent in his heart burned even more fiercely.
His Royal Highness Charles had said that he would leave a few Knights of Light to ensure Karl's safety, but in fact, he had only left one. However, Karl still went to visit this noble knight. Of course, the fact that the knight treated him like air was within his expectations.
Chie Shangguan listened to their conversation, but carefully sensed the difference between the Honorable Martial Continent and the Savage Continent. The energy in the air was even denser, but it did not have the unique energy in the Savage Continent that could isolate the outside world.
"Do you have anyone you are familiar with here?" Ah Xin asked.
Blue Wind City was currently a bustling construction site, with countless people bustling about. An even more majestic city was about to appear in Blue Wind City's original location.
"This is the Honorable Martial Continent?"
A young and unfamiliar face entered his field of vision.
Charles had rushed back to Temple because something big had happened.
Sophie spoke coldly as usual: "According to Master Gou Cheng WenDao's report, the Southern Alliance did not risk their lives to defend, but more like a strategic retreat. If that's the case, then the enemy will definitely have a backup plan. "
Creak. The big door opened, and Charles who was dressed in a pure white robe walked out.
Shang Bei spoke respectfully: "Yes, this place has already entered the Honorable Martial Continent, and is called the Small Forest Continent. Although the Small Forest Continent is connected to the Savage Continent, but because of the black zone of death, there are not many troops stationed there. "
~ Take your time, I wish you good luck. ~
Ah Xin nodded his head, he knew that it was true. The Honorable Martial Continent would never have thought that someone would actually be able to find a small path in the black zone of death. But even if they knew, they might not care. Ah Xin, who had personally gone through it, knew that the small smuggling path that Shang Bei and the rest had discovered was unable to pass through large scale armies. Forget about warships, even the smallest transport ships were unable to pass through.
Carl was proficient in reading people's expressions, furthermore, the other party did not hide anything, but he could only laugh bitterly in his heart.
As long as they controlled the Shang Continent, it meant that they controlled the passage to Heaven's Road. To Temple, no matter how big of a sacrifice they made, it was not worth mentioning. Heaven's Road's Honorable Martial Temple's betrayal had infuriated Temple. For the past few years, Temple had always treated Heaven's Road as a branch, and did not spare any effort in grooming them, just so that when they conquered Heaven's Road, they would have Heaven's Road Temple as a spy.
"I hope so." Sophie said indifferently, she had a premonition that the matter was definitely not that simple.
Carl knew that it was also an opportunity. If they were able to form a relationship with Charles, it would be extremely beneficial to the Western Traders. It was not that he did not know, but he never dared to think about it in the past. In front of Temple, the traders were not even ants.
~ Playing hide and seek in the Savage Continent? ~
Temple's rage could be imagined, regardless of the price they had to pay, they had to take down the Shang Continent. Compared to taking down the Shang Continent, the matter of Blue Wind City was not even worth mentioning.
Lieutenant General Lance had just been transferred over, and compared to Lieutenant General Oliver who only wanted to earn some money for his retirement, the younger and more talented Lieutenant General Lance obviously had greater ambitions, and was harder to deal with.
~ But it is the best natural opportunity. ~
"To be able to serve Your Highness, it is Carl and the Western Traders' honor." Carl immediately said.
Although the Southern Alliance was in a bad situation, Gou Cheng WenDao did not care about the casualties and forcefully pushed forward, causing both sides to have more casualties, but regardless of how difficult it was, it could not be compared to the start. Previously, the Southern Alliance did not retreat even in such a difficult situation, but now that they chose to retreat, how could people not be suspicious.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Carl said gratefully.
"Backup plan?" Charles laughed out loud: "What does that matter? Anyways, the Shang Continent is in our hands, that is enough. The Shang Continent is in our hands, Heaven's Road is also in our hands. We will have endless Spirit Generals, we will become stronger, then what are we afraid of? Sophie, don't be too pessimistic. "
He was not stupid enough to think that the Honorable Martial Banner of Knights that had stayed behind were truly there to ensure his safety, and that the other party was supervising him.
~ Now, the Perseus King Court's army is going around showing off. ~ ~ I wonder if Mu Zhi Xia has found them, I am looking forward to it. ~ No matter how familiar Mu Zhi Xia was with the Savage Continent, he could not be more familiar with it than the citizens.
Her face revealed the excitement of a young lady, she could not wait to activate the bronze Star Door.
~ Only such an outstanding person has the qualifications to become Temple's future successor. ~
A sinister smile flashed past Ah Xin's face, and he immediately became serious. ~ Entering the Honorable Martial Continent does not mean victory, the battle has just begun. ~
"The Shang Continent is finally in our hands." Charles' face was filled with excitement, his usual steadiness had long been thrown away: "This truly makes me excited, the door is finally going to be opened. What will Heaven's Road be like? When I was young, I had imagined it countless of times, and the day has finally come. Sophie, aren't you excited at all? "
Charles did not speak anymore, he quickly boarded the warship, which quickly activated and disappeared into the sky.
An irresistible force transmitted over, causing him to feel the world spinning around him, and his entire body was lifted up into the air.
The way he looked at Carl was rather unfriendly, but his strict discipline made him restrain the urge to cut Carl in half.
The unique energy above the Savage Continent had isolated the bronze Star Door, and she was unable to contact Tang Tian. Previously, she was worried that the Honorable Martial Continent would be like the Savage Continent, but she could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Carl's eyes lit up, he had to admit that Sacred Son Charles had an impeccable temperament. The pure white robe accentuated Sacred Son's tall and slender figure, the gold thread weaved into patterns made him look noble and elegant. His handsome face that could cause countless of women to scream, had an enchanting smile that was like spring, confident and amiable, causing every word he said to be filled with power, and could not help but convince others.

Carl was extremely busy, but he did not have any complaints. He knew that it was the biggest crisis that the Western Traders had ever faced, and Lieutenant General Oliver's dismissal had shaken him greatly. Lieutenant General Oliver was the Western Traders' biggest backer in the Western Region, and the reason why the Western Traders were able to run amok in the Western Region was because of Lieutenant General Oliver.
The Honorable Martial Banner of Knights that stayed behind was called Roger, and he was not happy at all. The news of taking down the Shang Continent was known to all of the Knights, and if Sacred Son Charles were to return now, it was extremely likely that he would head straight to the Shang Continent, or even Heaven's Road. Thinking about how he had to stay in the middle of nowhere and do nothing at such an important time, his mood was extremely terrible.
"I will die for Sacred Son!" Carl bowed even lower.
Carl only stood up after the warship disappeared, and started to ponder. ~ Something big must have happened, for Sacred Son Charles to rush back so hastily. ~ But, it was obviously not something he needed to think about, as long as he did his own thing, it was more important than anything else.
~ Who knew that Heaven's Road Temple would actually establish themselves so soon. ~
But Sophie also knew that even if they knew it was a bait, Temple could not reject it.
