I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2049 The situation is complicated

"Liu Jun," Feng Wanqing called softly after everyone left, with a hint of tenderness in her tone, "You must remember that the Skyfire Divine Realm is yours, whether you like it or not, it is yours, you must take good care of the Skyfire Divine Realm"

"I will take good care of it, don't worry, Master's wife, I will wait for you to come back," Liu Jun nodded.

As for Feng Wanqing's claim that the Skyfire Divine Realm was his, Liu Jun felt that Feng Wanqing just wanted him to be his successor and the next chief steward, but he would definitely not accept it.

Feng Wanqing nodded, with a gratified smile on her face. She knew that although Liu Jun was young, he had a strong heart. As long as he was given time, he would be able to grow into a qualified leader.

Outside the hall, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the eaves of the God King's Palace, reflecting a golden glow. Feng Wanqing stood at the entrance of the hall, looking into the distance, silently praying for victory in this war.

"Master's wife, please take good care of yourself. This is for you. You can only eat one." Liu Jun handed a wooden box to Feng Wanqing.

Inside was the detoxification pill he made using the Jiu Tian Xuan Yang Grass, which was specifically designed to detoxify his master's wife.

Feng Wanqing took the wooden box, a warm current surged in her heart, and then she gently patted Liu Jun's shoulder, with a hint of relief in her tone: "Good boy, you have worked hard."

When Liu Jun and Feng Wanqing arrived at the gate of the Divine King City, the Shura Army was already waiting outside the city. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on their heavy armor, reflecting a cold light, as if even the air had become heavy.

"What a powerful army." Liu Jun couldn't help but admire in a low voice.

He had seen many elite troops, and the navy of Donglai Port was considered the best among them, but compared with the Shura Army in front of him, it was as immature as rookies.

Every soldier of the Shura Army was wrapped in heavy armor, and even their mounts were tightly protected by the armor. Only those pairs of cold eyes pierced through the visors, revealing endless murderous intent.

Although their faces could not be seen, the strong, almost materialized aura of killing was unmatched by any other army. Liu Jun could feel that this aura seemed to permeate from every pore of the Shura Army, condensing into an invisible sense of oppression that made people shudder.

"You can go to the Fiery Canyon in the east. That's the garrison of the Extreme Fire Army, and it's also a very good army." Feng Wanqing's voice sounded in Liu Jun's ears, with a hint of reminder in her tone.

"I understand, Master's Wife." Liu Jun responded respectfully, but in his heart he was shocked by the strength of the Shura Army. He knew that Feng Wanqing brought him here not only to let him see the power of the Shura Army, but also to let him understand what a real army looks like.

"Take care." Feng Wanqing said softly, then jumped and flew lightly to the front of the Shura army formation.

She was sitting on a special warhorse. The horse was completely black except for its four hooves which glowed with a faint red light, as if it was walking on flames.

"Shura Army, march out!" With Feng Wanqing's order, the soldiers of the Shura Army turned around in unison, their horses neighed, their iron hooves stomped the ground, and the whole earth seemed to be shaking.

Liu Jun stood there, watching this powerful army go further and further away, with a complex emotion welling up in his heart.

"Extreme Fire Army..." Liu Jun murmured in a low voice, turning his gaze to the east.

To the east of the Divine King City was a place called Fiery Canyon, where the Extreme Fire Army was stationed. That was his next target. He decided that after things here came to an end, he would definitely go there to see another powerful army.

The setting sun gradually sank into the horizon, and the Shura Army disappeared into the dust in the distance. Liu Jun took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the city.

However, just as he turned around, a dazzling red light suddenly flashed in the distant sky, as if something was approaching rapidly. Liu Jun stopped, frowned slightly, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"What is that?" Liu Jun whispered to himself, his eyes fixed on the red light. As the red light approached, he gradually saw its outline - it was an arrow made of fire, flying towards the God King City at an extremely fast speed.

"Not good!" Liu Jun was shocked and immediately realized that something was wrong.

The next second, the flaming arrow had already cut through the sky and shot straight towards the wall of the God King City. With a loud bang, a huge gap was blown open in the wall, and the flames spread instantly. The whole city fell into chaos, and the guards immediately gathered together.

Liu Jun stood at the city gate, looking at everything in front of him, his heart filled with shock and anger. He knew that this sudden attack was not just a coincidence. And the departure of the Shura Army might be the beginning of this conspiracy.

"It seems that things here are more complicated than I thought..." Liu Jun clenched his fists, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

General Wu Yi and Sima Zhu beside him were much calmer, as if they had expected this scene.

There was an elusive depth in their expressions, as if everything before their eyes was just a script that had been written long ago, and they were just bystanders quietly waiting for the plot to unfold.

"Do you two know something?" Liu Jun couldn't help but ask, frowning slightly, his eyes moving back and forth between the two people. He always felt that the two seemed to have grasped some key information, but they were always unwilling to reveal even a little bit.

General Wu Yi did not answer, but turned his head slightly, looked at Liu Jun deeply, then raised his foot and walked straight into the city.

His steps were slow and calm, as if the big hole in the city wall that had just been blown out did not exist at all. This attitude of ignoring the crisis made Liu Jun even more confused. Sima Zhu did not directly respond to Liu Jun's question, but instead answered the question irrelevantly: "Not many people came to see the steward off."

His tone was light, as if he was just stating an insignificant fact, but there was a hint of profound meaning in his words.

"Not many people are seeing us off?" Liu Jun muttered in a low voice, frowning even more tightly.

He suddenly realized, yes, as the actual person in charge of the Palace of the God King, the steward should have a large number of officials coming to see him off when he led the troops to the battle.

But the scene before him seemed unusually deserted, with only a few officials seeing him off, less than half of what he had seen at the Extreme Fire Temple. This was obviously unreasonable.

Countless thoughts flashed through Liu Jun's mind. Needless to say, the chief steward had a high status in the Divine King Palace. Her trip should have been a grand event that attracted the attention of the whole city. Why was it so deserted? Was there something hidden in this? The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.

"It's just like in TV dramas when the emperor goes on a trip and leaves the palace. Which official dares not to see him off? Will he give up his head?" Liu Jun muttered to himself, trying to find clues from the anomaly in front of him.

He suddenly realized that perhaps the chief steward's expedition was not as simple as it seemed. And those officials who did not come to see him off might have known some inside information, or even made a choice.

Liu Jun's eyes fell on General Wu Yi and Sima Zhu again. Their indifferent attitude was obviously not accidental. Did they foresee all this? Did they know what conspiracy was hidden behind the chief steward's expedition? Liu Jun's heart was full of questions, but he also knew that it would not be easy to get answers from these two people.

He took a deep breath and decided not to dwell on the mystery before him. Since he had promised his mistress that he would take good care of this place, he would not back down at all.

After figuring this out, Liu Jun strode into the city, overtaking General Wu Yi in a few steps and heading straight for the garrison general's mansion.

At the same time, General Wu Yi and Sima Zhu stood at the city gate, watching Liu Jun's back gradually disappear into the distance. Their expressions remained calm, but there was an indescribable complexity in their eyes.

"Do you think he can do it?" Sima Zhu asked in a low voice, with a hint of temptation in his tone.

General Wu Yi was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Maybe. I believe in Sister Feng's judgment. He should be able to handle that group of clowns."

Sima Zhu nodded slightly, looking into the distance, as if he saw the coming storm. He murmured in a low voice: "This storm, after all, cannot be avoided."

The two figures were stretched out in the sunset, as if they had merged into this ancient city. And the big hole in the city wall that was blown out still silently told some unknown secret.

Liu Jun stood in front of the garrison general's mansion, his eyes swept across the towering vermilion gate. The stone lions in front of the gate were majestic, as if silently declaring the power of the master. The several guards of the God King Palace behind him looked solemn, their hands unconsciously pressed on the hilts of their waists, and looked around vigilantly. There was a repressive atmosphere in the air, as if even the wind had become heavy.

"This guy's mansion is really magnificent." Liu Jun chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. His eyes fell on the eaves and corners of the mansion. Those magnificent decorations sparkled in the sun, looking particularly dazzling.

According to the regulations of the Palace of the God King, the residences of officials at all levels are subject to strict specifications, and the residence in front of them has obviously far exceeded the required standards.

"Although the rank of garrison general is one level lower than that of General Ran Min, the luxury of this mansion is far beyond the reach of even the general's mansion." Liu Jun whispered to himself, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

He knew clearly in his heart that this mansion was not only a symbol of power, but also a provocation by the garrison general to the authority of the Palace of the God King.

The guard Xiaobai stepped forward and whispered, "Son, this guy is an important figure in the royalist faction. He usually disobeys the orders of the chief steward and acts very arrogantly. I'm afraid our trip this time will not be smooth."

Hearing this, Liu Jun sneered, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "It's okay. No matter how arrogant they are, do they dare to attack me, the Holy Son, in their own house?"

Xiaobai frowned, with a bit of worry in his tone: "That's not the case. Although these people are arrogant, they are not so bold. However, we still have to be careful. After all, this is his territory."

Liu Jun waved his hand and said firmly: "There is no such thing as anyone's territory. The entire Skyfire Divine Realm belongs to the Divine King Palace. Let's go in."

After saying that, he stepped forward and walked straight towards the vermilion door. The guards followed closely behind him. Although they were nervous, they remained vigilant. When the guards in front of the door saw Liu Jun and his group, they immediately stepped forward to stop them, but after seeing Liu Jun's identity, they quickly stepped aside and saluted respectfully.

"Your Highness, why are you here?" a guard asked cautiously, with a hint of panic in his tone.

Liu Jun glanced at him calmly and said calmly: "I came to see the garrison general to discuss important matters. Why, you are not welcome?"

The guard shook his head quickly, a layer of cold sweat oozing from his forehead: "I dare not, I dare not! Please wait a moment, Master Liu, I will go and inform the general."

Liu Jun said nothing, but pushed the guard aside and walked straight into the mansion. The decoration inside the mansion was extremely luxurious, with carved beams and painted buildings, and gold and jade everywhere, as if every detail was showing off the owner's wealth and power. Liu Jun's eyes swept around, and he sneered in his heart. He knew that behind this mansion, there were many secrets that were not to be seen.
