When the light shone over, Zhang Yu seemed to be caught off guard and was immediately hit.
Lin Daoxiu was overjoyed when he saw this. He sat there and continued to circulate his mana. The light continued to shrink as he tried to trap Zhang Yu completely.
Vice Commander Chen was also reinvigorated when he saw that things were going so smoothly.
As long as he could kill both Miao Guangwu and Zhang Yu before the others arrived and push the blame for Miao Guangwu's death onto Zhang Yu, he would be able to make use of this time to make new arrangements.
Even if they failed, they could still take the formation plate of the encampment from Miao Guangwu and take control of the encampment.
However, in the next moment, his expression froze. He saw that Zhang Yu was not trapped in the light. Instead, he slowly stood up.
Lin Daoxiu's expression changed. He circulated his mana again, and the light shone brighter. However, it did not seem to be able to stop Zhang Yu. His movements did not slow down at all.
Vice Commander Chen saw that something was wrong. He gritted his teeth and decided to get rid of Miao Guangwu first. However, at this moment, Miao Guangwu also sensed the change in the situation. The spiritual light on his body suddenly grew stronger. This forced him to maintain a stalemate with Miao Guangwu. He could not do anything else.
After Zhang Yu stood up, he walked towards Lin Daoxiu step by step. Lin Daoxiu's face was pale, and his entire body was covered in mist. This was actually a sign that he had exhausted too much of his mana.
However, Lin Daoxiu could not stop at all. He could sense that Zhang Yu was also surging with a powerful Heart Force. He could sense that if he retreated even slightly, he would be crushed into a pulp by the surging power.
Zhang Yu arrived in front of him after a few steps. He then extended a finger and pointed at Lin Daoxiu's forehead.
Lin Daoxiu could only watch. However, all of his mana and Qi were entangled with Zhang Yu's light. He was unable to dodge at all. In the end, Zhang Yu's finger pointed at the center of his forehead.
In an instant, Lin Daoxiu's body trembled violently, and his Qi and Fa Li collapsed. His head tilted to the side, and then softly drooped down, and there was no more sound.
When Vice Commander Chen saw this scene, he could not help but be horrified.
Originally, he had hoped that Lin Daoxiu would help him after controlling Zhang Yu, but now he had gotten himself into trouble.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he looked at Miao Guangwu and said with difficulty, "I surrender."
As he spoke, he took a step back and let go of Miao Guangwu's hands.
At this time, Miao Guangwu stepped forward and punched. The spiritual light on his body suddenly expanded and hit Vice Minister Chen's chest with a bang. Vice Minister Chen was sent flying. His body hit the solid wall of the inner hall, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. He hesitated for a moment, then fainted.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside. Obviously, the guards outside had noticed the movement inside. After a while, several guards rushed in and were stunned when they saw this scene.
Miao Guangwu scolded, "Did I let you in? Get out! Each of you will be punished once. "
"Yes!"
The guard gave him a military salute, and then withdrew from the room.
Miao Guangwu looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Inspector, you already knew that there was something wrong with these two people?"
Zhang Yu, "I only noticed it just now."
When he threw the hollow copper ball out earlier, he wanted to observe the reactions of the three people present. He also noticed that there was a slight fluctuation in the emotions of Lin and Chen.
There was no doubt that the two of them recognized this thing, so he was on guard at that time.
Miao Guangwu looked outside and said, "Inspector, you just asked me to summon all the soldiers in the army. Do you think there is an enemy spy in my army?"
Zhang Yu, "This time, I found a large formation in the Frosty Star North that encompasses the entire northern tip of the Earth Star. You should know what this means, Sir Miao."
Miao Guangwu was shocked.
Zhang Yu, "Sir Miao should know that Vice Minister Chen and Lin Daoxiu alone are not enough to cover up this matter. There must be someone else working with them. "
Miao Guangwu's mood became heavy. With such a thing happening, he, as the major, could not escape the responsibility. He said, "Patrol Officer, do you have a way to find out the possible spies in the army?"
Zhang Yu, "I can try."
Miao Guangwu nodded. At this moment, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly revealed a regretful and ashamed expression. "Inspector Zhang, I made a mistake."
Zhang Yu looked up at him.
Miao Guangwu sighed, "A few days ago, when the snowstorm came, the Shangchen Dao soldiers took the opportunity to attack the camp. A group of Fu soldiers also attacked the camp at that time. In order to ensure that the camp was not lost, I could only treat them as enemies. After that, a portion of the Fu soldiers escaped and the rest were imprisoned.
Now that I think about it, it might have been their plan. Vice Minister Chen had instigated me to kill the captives several times and it was already set in stone. I didn't think it through and let go of this matter. "
Zhang Yu said, "Miao Sima has indeed made a mistake in this matter. However, this matter is not irreversible. I have a comrade who is a guard of the Fu Clan's army. He came here with me just now and I believe that he will stop this matter."
Miao Guangwu's eyes widened when he heard this. He was surprised and happy. After a while, he relaxed and raised his hand to Zhang Yu. Solemnly, he bowed to Zhang Yu.
At this moment, the vice minister's voice came from outside, "Sir, the other soldiers, Niu Daoxiu and Qi Xuanxiu are all here."
Miao Guangwu said, "Let them in."
A short while later, the garrison soldiers walked into the inner hall. When they saw Vice Minister Chen's miserable state and Lin Daoxiu's appearance, they couldn't help but be shocked. A few of them even changed their expressions slightly.
Everyone noticed Zhang Yu's presence and could not help but guess his identity.
Zhang Yu looked around. There were a total of thirty Vice Ministers and six Vice Marquises. There were also two other cultivators who were in charge of guarding the troops.
When he looked at the two cultivators, they were also looking at him. However, the two of them had a serious expression on their faces. It was obvious that the majestic aura he deliberately exuded gave them a lot of pressure.
Seeing that everyone was present, Miao Guangwu said, "Advisor Zhang, everyone is here."
He obviously knew that Zhang Yu's identity could not be revealed, so he only mentioned his official identity.
Zhang Yu nodded to him and said, "Sir Miao, you are the Vice Minister of the garrison troops. You should be the one to explain this matter."
Miao Guangwu walked to the front and said, "This is Advisor Zhang from Xuanting. This time, he discovered a large formation that covered almost the entire northern region of the Frost Star. However, our garrison troops were so close to it, but we did not notice it at all!"
At this point, his tone turned serious. "Vice Minister Chen and Lin Daoxiu are suspected of colluding with the enemy. Just now, they attacked me and Advisor Zhang in order to cover up this matter."
Everyone was shocked. They never thought that something like this would happen in the garrison troops.
At this moment, Zhang Yu was using the Divine Instinct Seal to pay attention to the changes in everyone's mind. If there was even the slightest change in people's minds, he would be able to detect it immediately.
At this moment, he indeed noticed something. His gaze shifted, and he raised his hand and pointed at the crowd.
Miao Guangwu glanced at him, and his gaze turned sharp. He said, "Take Marquis Su, Marquis Wang, and the others that Advisor Zhang pointed at!"
Upon receiving the order, Vice Minister Chen did not hesitate to step forward and detain these people. One of them struggled and shouted, "Why are you arresting us, Minister Chen?"
Miao Guangwu looked directly into his eyes, and the latter could not help but evade. He said coldly, "I'm just restraining you now, not punishing you for your crimes. If there's nothing wrong with the investigation in the end, I'll naturally release you." He waved his hand. "Take them away."
The soldiers acknowledged his order and took these people away.
Miao Guangwu looked at the remaining people and said, "From today onwards, all soldiers of my army are to stay in the garrison. Without my orders, you are not allowed to enter or leave, and you are not allowed to spread any news. Those who violate this will be punished with the crime of colluding with the enemy!"
All the soldiers solemnly acknowledged his order.
Miao Guangwu then turned to look at the two cultivators and said, "Niu Daoxiu, Qi Xuanxiu, please also abide by this order during this period."
Niu Daoxiu cupped his hands and said, "Since we're in the army, we'll naturally obey."
Qi Xuanxiu did not utter a word. He glanced at Zhang Yu, then raised his hand and bowed.
After Miao Guangwu had everyone leave, he asked Zhang Yu, "Patrol Envoy Zhang, can those two be trusted?"
Zhang Yu knew that he was asking about the two cultivators, Niu Daoxiu and Qi Xuanxiu. He said, "As cultivators, if we're prepared, there are ways to conceal and suppress the changes in our emotions. To be safe, I hope that Minister Miao can hand over the array plate that controls the garrison's great array to me. This way, even if there's a problem with these two, they won't be able to do anything."
Miao Guangwu did not hesitate. He immediately took out the array plate from his sleeve and handed it over.
Zhang Yu received the array plate. First, he used the Patrol Envoy's seal to illuminate the array plate. The seal on the array plate was immediately dispelled. Then, he sent his consciousness into it and took control of it.
From this moment onwards, every action of everyone here could not escape his senses. Furthermore, without his permission, no one could leave this place.
Miao Guangwu said, "What else does the Patrol Envoy need me to do?"
After Zhang Yu kept the array plate, he said, "That great array is very likely to involve other Earthly Stars. Therefore, this is no longer a matter of Frost Star. This matter must be reported to Yi Wei Heavenly City as soon as possible."
Miao Guangwu said, "I'll immediately send someone to inform the Military Affairs Department of this matter."
However, Zhang Yu rejected this idea. He said, "You can't do that. Minister Miao, do you have anyone you can trust in the Military Affairs Department?"
Miao Guangwu was stunned. Then, he realized something and said in shock, "There's someone in the Military Affairs Department …"
Zhang Yu did not discuss this matter with him. He only said, "Based on the current situation, it's best to be careful."
Miao Guangwu was silent for a moment. He said, "I understand. I'll send someone to take a flying ship to Kui Residence and report this matter directly to Chief Hong."
