Within the Left Minister's Political Affairs Hall in the Vermilion Bird Star Lord's residence, the Left Minister's expression was somewhat serious as he handed the jade talisman to Ling Dong. His expression was somewhat sorrowful.
"This should be the information you need, although I'm not too sure. However, for this piece of information, I have already used a spy planted in the Earth Deer World who has almost infiltrated the upper echelons of the Constellation Heavenly Monarch's manor. He has not been used in the past hundred years.
That spy risked being exposed to obtain this information. However, in order to send this information out from the Earth Deer World, the other four spies we placed in the Earth Deer World have all … died … They have been hiding for hundreds of years without any regrets … "
After receiving the jade talisman, Ling Dong's hand suddenly sank. This light jade talisman suddenly became many times heavier in Ling Dong's hand. The price of this information …
"Take good care of their families. Call me when you're giving out the pension …"
Ling Dong fell silent for a moment before slowly speaking. It could be imagined that the Earth Deer World had betrayed them for 37 years. It was difficult to say just how valuable the spies who had been able to hide until now were.
Over the years, many of them had been exposed, but those who had been able to survive until now were all elites.
Although the deaths of these people, to a certain extent, were for Ling Dong's own selfish reasons, this was the only thing Ling Dong could do …
Moreover, the Left Minister's words made Ling Dong think of the Wood Deer World's Deputy Commander, Du Yuan, who had betrayed them 100 years ago.
Du Yuan, who had betrayed them for the rest of his life for five steamed buns, ten bushels of rice, and 100 taels of gold. At this moment, Ling Dong suddenly felt curious. It had been more than 100 years; was Du Yuan, who had almost forced him into a desperate situation, still alive?
"Take a look at this information and analyse it first," Left Minister Xu Jiangyue's expression was somewhat gloomy. Those spies were all personally planted by him over the years.
Perhaps it was because of Ling Dong's appointment of Ling Dong as the Commander of the Vermilion Bird Divine Guards, or Ling Dong's astonishing strength, or other reasons, but the Minister of the Left, who used to be at odds with Ling Dong, was now much more agreeable to Ling Dong and much more cooperative.
Perhaps this was the respect that martial artists had for the strong in the current environment.
Even though Ling Dong's cultivation was only at the half-step Heavenly Cycle Principal God level, he was still able to defeat the Elder of the Illusory Waves Region. To a certain extent, Left Prime Minister Xu Jiangyue had to thank Ling Dong. After all, the Elder of the Illusory Waves Region was not easy to please, and his last disciple was even harder to please.
Ling Dong nodded and sent his Spiritual Force into the jade talisman. He carefully read the short and bloody information word by word.
In fact, the spy who had been hiding very deeply in the Earth Deer World could not be sure whether the captured Di Tianjun Di Nading had been imprisoned in the Earth Deer World. In the information he had sent over, there were only a few words he had obtained after risking his life to investigate and observe.
Ever since the defeated army had returned to the Earth Deer World, the spy had inadvertently learned that Invincible Young Marshal Huan Ying, who was staying in the temporary residence of the Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Earth Deer World, would make a trip to the Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Earth Deer World every two or three days.
Every time, the Vanguard Commander of the Southern Wilderness Star Region, Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Earth Deer World, Mo Jingtian, would personally accompany Huan Ying to a specific area.
Initially, this matter would not have attracted anyone's attention. However, the spy had met Mo Jingtian of the Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode when he was escorting the Invincible Young Marshal Huan Ying out of the second gate with a gloomy face.
"Marshal Mo, you're so … That Di, please don't … One day …" When the spy passed by, he only heard a dozen or so words. He did not even understand what they meant. However, he heard the word 'Di' loud and clear.
After that, the spy searched everywhere. After half a month, he finally found out that there was indeed an extremely important captive imprisoned in the Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Earth Deer World. For this captive, they had even used the Seven Essences Geomagnetic Forbidden Land that had not been used for more than a hundred years to imprison this captive.
That was all the information the spy had sent. There was no more information, and he was left with many doubts.
"Left Prime Minister, you've read this information, right? What do you think?" Ling Dong was no longer in a hurry when he received the information that seemed to indicate Heavenly Lord Di Nading's whereabouts.
The Left Prime Minister pondered for a moment and said slowly, "If this information is correct, I'm 50% sure that the captive Heavenly Lord Di Nading is imprisoned in the Earth Deer World.
If we combine this with the movements of the war, the movements of the Martial Army, and even the Young Marshal Huan Ying's movements, I'm 80% sure that the captive Heavenly Lord Di is indeed imprisoned in the Earth Deer World. "
At this point, the Left Prime Minister frowned and said, "However, I don't understand why the Southern Wilderness Star Region would pay such a huge price to capture Heavenly Lord Di.
According to what you said, the Southern Wilderness Star Region left more than thirty thousand corpses in front of the Constellation Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Deer World. The troops that came to encircle Heavenly Lord Di sacrificed another thirty thousand Martial Army soldiers.
Sixty to seventy thousand Martial Army soldiers sacrificed their lives just to capture Heavenly Lord Di alive? What's the purpose of a Constellation Lord of the Star World? I'm afraid that even this old man's life might not be worth the lives of sixty to seventy thousand elite soldiers. "
Upon hearing this, Ling Dong could only reply with a bitter smile, "That's true! I've been thinking about it for a month, but I still can't figure out why they would pay such a huge price to capture Heavenly Lord Di alive. Or perhaps, Heavenly Lord Di has some secret or value that we don't know about? "
"I'm afraid that's the only inference we can make. If Heavenly Lord Di doesn't have any value that we don't know about, the Southern Wilderness Star Region would pay such a huge price to capture Heavenly Lord Di only to embarrass us and damage our morale slightly …
As for using Heavenly Lord Di to threaten us, don't even think about it … "the Left Prime Minister muttered.
"Yes, that's true! However, I believe that this mystery will be revealed after we rescue Heavenly Lord Di, "said Ling Dong.
Upon hearing this, the Left Prime Minister's expression changed abruptly. He exclaimed, "Commander Ling, what did you say? Rescue Heavenly Lord Di? Rescue Heavenly Lord Di from the Earth Deer World? Did I mishear you? "
"You didn't mishear me, Left Prime Minister. We're going to rescue Heavenly Lord Di. Is there a problem with that?" Ling Dong asked in return.
"Of course there's a problem. There's a huge problem! Even if we can confirm that the captured Heavenly Lord Di is in the Constellation Heavenly Lord's residence in the Earth Deer World, so what?
The Earth Deer World is currently the bridgehead for the Southern Wilderness Star Region to attack our Vermilion Bird World.
More than a third of the Wu Army, more than forty percent of the Wu Army and the elites of the Southern Remnant Desolation Starfield, including their Vanguard Marshal Mo Jingtian and the Invincible Young Marshal Huan Ying, were all gathered in the Earth Deer World.
It could be said that the Southern Wilderness Star Region's main forces were all gathered in the Earth Deer World.
In order to defend and intimidate the Southern Wilderness Star Region's main forces that were gathered in the Earth Deer World, even the Vermilion Bird Matriarch's true body had to guard the Earth Deer World personally. Do you know what this means, Commander Ling? "Left Prime Minister Xu Jiangyue's expression was very serious.
"What does it mean?" Ling Dong suddenly realized a very serious fact when he asked this question.
"It means that the Earth Deer World is also guarded by someone whose cultivation level is similar to the Vermilion Bird Matriarch's. If the Earth Deer World didn't have a peak existence like the Vermilion Bird Matriarch, it would have been taken down by the Vermilion Bird Matriarch a long time ago. Do you think we would have been able to fight the Southern Wilderness Star Region until now?
Under such circumstances, how can Commander Ling rescue Heavenly Lord Di? Why should I rescue him? How should I rescue him? " The Left Prime Minister's three rhetorical questions directly shattered Ling Dong's delusion and made Ling Dong finally face one thing head-on.
Based on the current situation, the Left Prime Minister had no intention of rescuing the captured Heavenly Lord Di at all. Rescuing Heavenly Lord Di was just Ling Dong's wishful thinking.
Even though he realized this, Ling Dong still couldn't accept it. "We can't rescue him? Are we just going to watch the Vermilion Bird Star Region's leading figure Heavenly Lord Di get captured and humiliated every day?
Aren't you afraid that the enemy will use the captured Heavenly Lord Di to weaken the morale of the Vermilion Bird Star Region? Will they use the morale of the Vermilion Bird Star Region's army to weaken the morale of the Vermilion Bird Star Region's army? "Ling Dong asked in a sharp tone.
The Left Prime Minister, who was questioned by Ling Dong, revealed a trace of coldness that made one feel as if they were cruel. "We have been fighting for thirty-seven years and millions of soldiers have died in battle. Any turmoil that can happen has already passed.
No one will care about the death of Heavenly Lord Di at all! Right now, the only people who can affect the morale of the Vermilion Bird Star Region's army are the Vermilion Bird Matriarch, the Vermilion Bird Star Lord, and the four great marshals.
Moreover, based on my understanding, if the enemy dares to bring Heavenly Lord Di to the frontlines, he definitely won't disappoint us. He definitely won't lose the backbone of the Vermilion Bird Star Region. He will do everything in his power to kill himself and use his blood … to strengthen the morale of the army … "
The Left Prime Minister's cold words made Ling Dong shiver. Perhaps that was really the case.
However, even if that was the case, Ling Dong would persevere. Even if no one understood his perseverance … it was for the Wood Puppet Realm, for Di Nankun's request, and most importantly, for himself.
Ling Dong took a deep breath and said in a commanding tone, "Invite the Western Marshal and the Right Prime Minister here. We need to discuss whether or not to rescue Heavenly Lord Di!"
The Left Prime Minister took a deep look at Ling Dong. He couldn't understand why Ling Dong insisted on rescuing Heavenly Lord Di. It was an impossible task.
Even so, the Left Prime Minister, Xu Jiangyue, took a step back when he heard Ling Dong's order. He said, "Yes, Marshal Ling. I will inform the Western Marshal and the Right Prime Minister to come and discuss this matter! However, Marshal Ling, this matter is really not feasible. The Western Marshal and the Right Prime Minister will also … disappoint you! "
Ling Dong didn't reply to the Left Prime Minister. Instead, his eyes became even more determined.
Everything could only be known after trying!
There was only hope if he persevered!
