Early morning, Guang Yu City.
At the first glimmer of dawn, Lu An and Nie Han returned to the City Lord's Estate. Because of Lu An's attack, Liu Huairen and the others were so worried that they couldn't sleep. When they saw Lu An and Nie Han return together, they were overjoyed.
Not only was Lu An fine, but Nie Han was also rescued. This was the best outcome.
Not only that, when Nie Han said that Lu An had killed all three Level 5 Heavenly Masters, Liu Huairen was extremely shocked. He looked at Lu An and said, "If it weren't for the fact that we can't attack without permission, I would have led my men to attack them and vent the anger I've been feeling for the past few months!"
Everyone nodded. Lu An looked at Nie Han and asked, "Compared to my matter, Nie Han's matter is more important. Did you find out which sect was in contact with the enemy?"
"Yes, I did!" Nie Han nodded and said, "Although I was suspected, I didn't give up. I tried my best to investigate. Finally, one day, I drank with a core member and got him drunk. Then, I asked him the name of the sect! Because he used to be a member of the sect, he knew! "
Then, Nie Han paused and said in a deep voice, "The name of the sect is Revered Heavenly Sect."
Revered Heavenly Sect?
"Did you get any information about Revered Heavenly Sect?" Lu An asked.
"No." Nie Han's face was a little embarrassed. He shook his head and said, "He drank too much. In the end, he couldn't speak clearly. I couldn't do anything."
Everyone was a little depressed. At this time, Nie Han suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh right, I heard from him that the Young Master of Revered Heavenly Sect is going to Upper King City to meet with a leader at the front line. It's said that they are going to discuss something important in seven days!"
Hearing this, everyone in the room was shocked. This was a big piece of news. If they could destroy this meeting, they might be able to destroy the other party's alliance!
Lu An put on a solemn face. He didn't know much about the sects in the Eight Ancient Continents. He had never heard of this Heaven Gate before. However, for a sect to be able to extend its reach to this place, it should be in the vicinity. After pondering for a moment, Lu An said, "Don't make a fuss about this for now. Send news of the sect to Purple Lake City first. Inform the Purple Lake City's City Lord about this. Let Purple Lake City make the decision."
"Yes!" Nie Han said immediately, "I'll do it now!"
Lu An nodded, and Nie Han quickly left the room. Everyone in the room was discussing among themselves. News about the Heavenly Gate was their greatest harvest. No matter what, finding out about the Heavenly Gate could change the entire war.
Lu An was also very concerned about the news from the Revered Heavenly Gate, but no matter what, he had to wait for orders from Purple Lake City before he could take action. Moreover, this matter could not be made public. Otherwise, it would not be good if the enemy found out and leaked the news.
"This matter cannot be made public. Everyone must keep their mouths shut. Otherwise, you will be punished according to military law!" Lu An looked at everyone in the room and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Everyone heard and hurriedly said.
Lu An did not chat with the others and returned to his room to cultivate. He also did not think about the Revered Heavenly Gate and only waited for orders from Purple Lake City.
It would take at least a day to reach Purple Lake City from here, and almost two days to go back and forth. Two days later, Nie Han finally rushed back from Purple Lake City in the morning. Liu Huairen immediately called everyone for a meeting, and Lu An was naturally present.
"What orders does the City Lord have? Quickly speak!" Liu Huairen saw that everyone was present and looked at Nie Han anxiously.
Nie Han's face was somewhat stiff as she said, "The City Lord's orders are very simple. He ordered us not to reveal this matter to anyone. Otherwise, we will be killed without mercy! As for how they will deal with this matter, we don't need to worry about it. They will act on their own! "
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They then looked at each other and revealed bitter smiles. Indeed, with their level, they could not participate in such a big matter as the Revered Heavenly Gate. It was already a great contribution for them to be able to obtain this information. They were powerless to do anything else.
"The City Lord said that he will let the Shang Qi Kingdom reward us, but only after the war is over. Otherwise, the sudden reward will also be discovered by the enemy." Nie Han said.
Everyone nodded after hearing this. They felt somewhat comforted in their hearts. At this time, Nie Han suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "My memory is getting worse and worse. I almost forgot something important!"
In front of everyone's eyes, Nie Han took out a sealed letter from his ring. He hurriedly walked in front of Lu An and said, "City Lord Lu, this is the letter that the City Lord of Purple Lake City asked me to pass to you!"
Lu An was startled and took the letter. The letter was indeed Yang Mu's handwriting. Moreover, the seal was sealed with a special material. If it was opened halfway, it would definitely be discovered. Obviously, there was a very important message inside.
"I understand." Lu An did not immediately open the letter. Instead, he stood up and said to everyone, "Since that is the case, everyone should go about their own business and act as if nothing happened. If you do not want to become a sinner in the war and do not want to be killed, please keep this a secret. Do not leak it out, including to your superiors. "
"Yes!" Everyone said in unison.
Lu An did not stay for long. He directly left the meeting room and went back to his room. He closed the door and sat on the chair to open the letter.
When he opened the letter, it was not Yang Mu's beautiful handwriting, but Beauty Yang's. Her handwriting was as cold and arrogant as her personality, but it also had a kind of unattainable beauty.
"Revered Heaven Sect is a sect, not a clan. It is located in a deep mountain thousands of miles southeast of Shang Qi Country. It is a little famous in the Eight Ancient Continents. The Sect Leader calls himself Heavenly Venerable. His name is Zhang Yun. His strength is neither high nor low. He is also a Level Seven Heaven Master. Revered Heaven Sect has always been mysterious. They have never asked for any tribute from the surrounding countries. This time, they suddenly joined the war. It is really strange. "
"This is not a trivial matter. We need a trustworthy person to go to Upper King City to investigate. The person who investigates must not attract attention and must have enough strength. After thinking about it, the best person is master. I hope master can personally go to Upper King City to investigate more information. This matter cannot be rushed. Master, please do not act blindly without thinking. "
"Servant Beauty Yang, open."
After reading the letter, Lu An was a little stunned. However, he immediately raised a flame and burned the letter. He did not expect Beauty Yang to actually ask him to go to Upper King City to investigate. If he remembered correctly, he heard Liu Huairen say that every frontline leader was a Level Six Heaven Master.
Beauty Yang was very clear about his strength. It was impossible for her to think that he had the strength to escape from a Level Six Heaven Master. However, Beauty Yang wanted him to investigate. Could there be a special reason?
Lu An was a little puzzled. However, he still believed in Beauty Yang's judgment. The Young Master of Revered Heaven Sect would arrive in Upper King City in five days. He had to go there earlier. This way, he could be more prepared to investigate.
Thinking of this, Lu An did not hesitate. He immediately got up and left the house. After giving a simple explanation to Liu Huairen, he did not say where he was going and directly left the barracks. Fortunately, he had already asked Liu Huairen about the location of Upper King City two days ago. He also knew how to use the teleportation array to go to Upper King City. Because he had killed three Level Five Heaven Masters a few days ago, Guang Yu City was temporarily out of danger. He could go there without worry.
In the morning, Lu An arrived at the teleportation array in the mountain forest. He opened the teleportation array and walked in.
After three breaths, light shone behind the barracks of the most important frontline battlefield in the east of Upper Qi Kingdom. The teleportation array appeared in mid-air. Following that, Lu An walked out and landed on the ground.
As soon as he landed on the ground, Lu An immediately felt several Heaven's Essence Force gathering around him. More than ten Heaven Masters immediately surrounded him. Not only that, there were also countless soldiers surrounding him. There were probably thousands of people.
"Who are you? Tell me your name!" A Heaven Master shouted. He was very tense, as if he could make a move at any time.
Seeing this, Lu An frowned slightly. He did not expect that there would be so many people guarding the teleportation array. Indeed, the real frontline battlefield was very different from Guang Yu City. However, he did not want to reveal his identity as the Deputy City Lord of Purple Lake City. He only said, "I'm from Purple Lake City. I have something to discuss with the leader here!"
Purple Lake City?
Hearing this, the surrounding Heaven Masters were stunned and looked at each other. Now that the Four Great Kingdoms had submitted to Purple Lake City, they could not be negligent.
"Please wait for a moment. I'll go and report this!" One of them immediately said and turned to leave.
Sure enough, Lu An did not have to wait for long. Soon, the person returned and said to Lu An, "The East Guarding General invites you. Please follow me!"
Hearing this, Lu An nodded and followed the person into the barracks. After walking for a long time, they finally arrived at a huge tent. The person opened the tent and said loudly to the man sitting on the main seat, "Reporting to the General, I've brought him here!"
Lu An followed the person into the tent and looked up at the person sitting on the main seat. Lu An's eyes narrowed. He had seen this person before when the new King of Shang Qi Kingdom was inaugurated. He was the Sect Master of Shang Qi Kingdom's Sacred Ground and the only Level 6 Heaven Master in Shang Qi Kingdom, Chen Zhou.
When Chen Zhou saw Lu An, he was also stunned. This was because he also remembered this person. After all, he was also present when the various kingdoms competed in drinking. He also knew that Lu An had become the Deputy City Lord of Purple Lake City.
Although Lu An was not as strong as him, the City Lord of Purple Lake City was still a Level 7 Heaven Master. Chen Zhou took the initiative to walk down the stairs and said to Lu An with a smile, "I didn't expect City Lord Lu to come. Apologies for not going out to meet you!"
