Chapter 709 Supervising the Country
When Lin Rui went to the Divine Palace, he did not ride his magic dragon, but wore a set of Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor and flew directly to the front of the Divine Xiao Palace.

The Demon Dragon was a coward. After helping Huangfu Qing replace the War Dragon, he lay outside the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower, shaking chaff.

Fortunately, this guy was very careful and thorough when he took action, otherwise Lin Rui would have wanted to kill him.

This guy was the king of the area around Wangcheng County and had no regard for the law. But today, after the prison break at Wanlong Tower, he was scared to death.

Therefore, Lin Rui did not dare to bring it to the temple at this time. The gods can see thousands of miles away, and the Great Astronomical Master can also perceive the slightest detail. If the evil dragon reveals a flaw, the consequences will be unimaginable.

At this time, many high-ranking officials of the court, members of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, as well as generals who stayed in Luojing, such as the Shen Ce Army, the Yulong Guard, and the Jinwu Guard, gathered in front of the Shenxiao Palace, as well as more than a dozen candidates for divine envoys and deputy divine envoys in Beijing.

When Lin Rui arrived, most of these people bowed to him.

The candidate divine envoys and deputy divine envoys of equal status to Lin Rui looked at him with complicated eyes as he continued to advance into the Shenxiao Palace.

After Lin Rui stepped into the hall, he immediately bowed towards the high platform in the hall.

There was actually no one on the stage, as the Abyss of the East had not yet returned, but Lin Rui could not be disrespectful and had to bow from afar as usual.

At this time, in this huge hall, there were only the Grand Astronomical Master, the second divine envoy and the fourth candidate divine envoy.

It is now April, so the fourth candidate for the God's Messenger is on duty at the God's Messenger Prison and is qualified to meet the God.

As for the Son of Heaven, the First Divine Envoy and Luo Wangshu, they were all leading their armies out on the expedition and unable to return.

After Lin Rui saluted, he saw the second envoy looking at him up and down with strange eyes.

He frowned and asked in confusion, "Feather God Envoy, is there anything wrong with me, Lin?"

"There's nothing wrong with the Duke of Zhenguo, but judging by his spiritual energy, he should have reached the seventh level, right?"

Yuhua Xuanyu paused and chuckled. "What a coincidence! Your ally, Lin Rui, also advanced to the seventh level of magical power not long ago? You two are so different in worlds, and you both entered the magical power realm at the same time, and it only took you a year. It's inevitable that I would think about it."

"Lin Rui?"

Lin Rui shook his head slightly. "This subordinate and the Extraterritorial Demons have only ever cooperated on official business, and have never been allies. However, this boy Lin Rui is truly extremely talented. It is said that he is an abyssal-level talent among the Extraterritorial Demons. His cultivation aptitude is even better than mine. It is not surprising that he has advanced to a supernatural power within a year."

He looked up at the sky, his eyes solemn. "It is said that this boy also possesses a pair of abyssal weapons. He may become a formidable enemy of Tianjixing in the future."

Yu Huaxuan watched him babble with a serious expression, and for a moment he couldn't tell truth from falsehood. He then narrowed his eyes and said, "Then why did the Duke of Zhenguo go to the Ten Thousand Dragons Pagoda today? It's quite interesting. A year ago, the Duke of Zhenguo went to the Demon Suppression Forest, and trouble arose there. A year later, you went to the Ten Thousand Dragons Pagoda, and it almost collapsed. And then there was the Abyss Divine Monument. The Duke of Zhenguo's ability to stir up trouble is truly admirable to this divine envoy."

Lin Rui's face darkened when he heard this.

Speaking of this matter, he also felt wronged.

He simply commissioned the Tiansha Mercenary Group to blast three small holes outside the Wanlong Tower, disguise it as a prison break, and help him complete the theft.

It should be noted that the style of the Song Dynasty bureaucracy is to make big things small and small things disappear, so this minor chaos can be handled at the cabinet level.

Qi Lechun certainly didn't want his superiors to find out about his poor supervision and dereliction of duty when he was about to be transferred, which gave the demon an opportunity to take advantage of. The demon from outside the domain actually planted an antimatter annihilation bomb and almost succeeded in breaking into the prison.

Therefore, this matter will neither alarm the gods nor reach the ears of heaven.

As a result, the people in purgatory caused such a big commotion.

But this blame cannot be placed on him.

Lin Rui's face was ashen. "I went to the Ten Thousand Dragons Pagoda to practice Blood Evil. Not only did I agree with Qi Lechun a year ago, I also asked the Divine Palace for permission beforehand. Speaking of which, I am also surprised by something. In the past two years, the security of Luojing has been supervised by the Feather Divine Envoy. However, since I entered the capital, I have encountered various disturbances. In the past year and a half alone, I have encountered more than a dozen assassination attempts.

"Major crimes have repeatedly occurred near Luojing—the Demon Suppression Forest, the Divine Palace, the case of blasphemy against the gods, the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower. It's not enough that major crimes have occurred, but thieves have repeatedly succeeded. How exactly does the Feather God Envoy manage to maintain public security in Luojing?"

Yu Huaxuan's face also turned dark, thinking that this guy had become too powerful. He actually dared to argue with him in the Shenxiao Palace when Luo Wangshu was not present, and even spoke with sarcasm.

Yuhuaxuan thought that he was supervising the public security in Luojing, but he was only supervising, not being in charge.

Furthermore, within the capital, there are the Imperial City Administration, Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Jinwu Guards, with orders issued from many different sources and numerous factions. His so-called supervisor is, in reality, just a title. Furthermore, as the commander of the Assassination Bureau, don't you have any responsibility for this demonic rebellion?
Yuhuaxuan's thoughts turned, and he thought that this guy really had no responsibility.

The main thing the Assassination Bureau is on guard against is the infiltration of extraterritorial demons and alien beings.

"Today, there was a great commotion in the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower. Seventy-seven ninth-level demons escaped from their cells. I checked their identities and found that half of them were famous ministers and generals from the past four thousand years of our dynasty. They were somehow possessed by demons and imprisoned in the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower."

Lin Rui bowed towards the altar and said, "I have done my best to help the Ten Thousand Dragons Pagoda quell the rebellion and have killed most of these demons. Only two of the seventy-seven demons escaped."

If he hadn't been there and hadn't let that damn mercenary group inject so many hallucinogens, who knows how many demons would have escaped.

Correspondingly, the number of soul power points and blood evil blood essence that Lin Rui harvested this time was also frightening.

At this time, the fourth candidate for divine envoy also nodded and said something fair: "Judging from the results, Purgatory clearly intends to take advantage of the great changes in the Demon Suppression Forest to release the demons from the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower. If the Duke of Zhenguo had not been present today, the consequences would be disastrous."

Just as he finished speaking, Dasitian, who had been standing in the center of the Shenxiao Palace and gazing at the stars in the sky, put away the seals he had formed with his hands.

The man frowned, his delicate brows forming the shape of a river. "Wait a moment, both of you. Judging by the astrological signs, today's chaos is the work of the Three Gods of Purgatory, not yours."

The Great Astronomer observed the traces of the destiny of the stars from afar, but found nothing. Apparently, all these traces were suppressed by the Three Gods of Purgatory.

In addition, he was certain that the rebellion in the Demon-Suppressing Forest was caused by the two Taizu and Taizong of the Song Dynasty who were supposed to be dead, and there was also the cooperation of an internal traitor.

Since it is these two people, it would be strange if all the officials in the Song Dynasty could defend themselves against them.

Yu Huaxuan's expression relaxed when he heard this. The reason he targeted Lin Rui was because he was afraid of being blamed and punished by the gods.

At this moment, Yu Huaxuan's mind focused again.

The Abyss of the East has arrived!

He saw a faint abyss appearing above the platform covered by the curtain.

Just as Yuhua, Xuanlin, Rui, and the others were about to bow again, the divine voice of the Eastern Abyss reached their ears: "Why are you two so slow in rushing to the aid of the Demon Suppression Forest?"

He was asking about Dasitian and Yuhuaxuan.

The Grand Astronomical Master had a solemn expression on his face and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, we are worried that these demons will cause trouble in the city again."

Yu Huaxuan also smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I was also worried that someone would divert attention to attack us from the east. Not long after, a riot really broke out inside the Ten Thousand Dragons Tower."

"That makes sense." Dong Zhi Shen Yuan seemed to be deep in thought. "Then has the Emperor ever been involved in this matter?"

"I don't know!" the Grand Astronomical Master replied without hesitation. "I observe the stars, and see nothing but illusion. All traces are obscured. Furthermore, I can confirm that those two traitors are the ones who started the rebellion today."

However, the fact that this point is obscured is actually very suspicious——

The founding emperor and the late emperor of the Song Dynasty have been dead for many years, so the names of these two villains cannot even be mentioned.

"So that's how it is!" Dong Zhi Shen Yuan said leisurely, "It seems that Luo Jing City must have a regent."

At this time, the Song Dynasty royal family members outside the hall, as well as the candidates for divine envoys and deputy divine envoys, all began to breathe heavily.

Only Yu Huaxuan's expression turned ugly.

Sure enough, the next moment, he heard the Jade Voice of the Godspeaker say, "Duke Zhenguo, listen to my command. During the Emperor's campaign against the Abyss, you will oversee government affairs on his behalf and suppress the demons."
