Chapter 2028 Who said we were going to attack Fenghai City?
Guangling County, Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Inside the council hall, Prince Zhennan sat in the main seat, with Fan Yaodong and others seated on either side.
After arriving in Jiangnan, the Prince of Zhennan immediately summoned them and learned in detail about the specific circumstances of the Battle of Redstone City.
At this moment, the Prince of Zhennan revealed a thoughtful expression: "Have you found out who sent you the message? I'm very curious, what kind of person could know the movements of those few demon kings?"
Even an organization like the Zhengui Division, which specializes in investigating evil spirits and tracking the supernatural, has difficulty finding the hiding place of those Ghost Kings. Yet, someone was able to clearly state the hiding place of those Ghost Kings and even know their plans, as if the messenger was right next to those Ghost Kings.
If they can make contact with the messenger, it will be much easier for them to seal the Ghost King.
After the Prince of Zhennan finished speaking, Fan Yaodong speculated, "I suspect there's something supernatural helping us."
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's conjecture, Xiong Qingcang immediately said, "That's impossible. Why would a monster help humans? In the eyes of a monster, humans are just food."
Fan Yaodong said, "If it weren't strange, how could they know so much about the Ghost Kings' actions? It's impossible for a human to have infiltrated the Ghost Kings' ranks, right?"
Everyone fell into deep thought.
Fan Yaodong's words make sense. The supernatural is indeed very sensitive to humans, and if a human were to infiltrate a group of supernatural beings, they would be quickly discovered.
They had only heard of the supernatural mingling among the crowd, but had never heard of anyone being able to infiltrate a group of supernatural beings.
At this point, Zou Yi put forward a conjecture: "I suspect that all of this is a conspiracy by those few demon kings."
The Prince of Zhennan asked, "Why does Director Zou say that?"
Zou Yi said, "Indeed, as Lord Fan said, only the supernatural would know so much about the actions of those supernatural kings, so it is highly likely that the one who tipped us off is also the supernatural."
"But the supernatural shouldn't betray their king so easily. I suspect that those supernatural kings deliberately sent the supernatural to deliver messages to us, to gain our trust first, and then set a trap to lure us in."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Qingcang immediately said, "Haven't the contents of the previous two letters already come true? How could it be a trap? If it were a trap, we would have been ambushed when we entered the Demon Cave Forest."
Zou Yi said, "Perhaps the previous two times were just those few demon kings trying to make us trust the messenger."
"Whether in the Demon Cave Forest or Redstone City, we did not cause any real damage to those Ghost Kings. The reason they did not ambush us in the Demon Cave Forest or Redstone City is either that they underestimated our strength, or that those Ghost Kings were not ready yet, their traps were not set up, and they deliberately left some flaws to make us think that what the messenger said was true."
"If we continue to ambush those ghost kings based on the intelligence provided by the messenger, we might fall into their trap one day."
Upon hearing Zou Yi's analysis, the Prince of Zhennan placed his hand on the armrest and tapped it gently, pondering the possibility that the letter contained a strange conspiracy.
The others in the council chamber also fell silent.
Zou Yi's words made sense. After all, they had brought so many Emperor-level experts this time, while there were only five Ghost Kings. If they wanted to kill them, those Ghost Kings would definitely have to be prepared.
Under the suppression of the Great Zhou's fortune, if one were to engage in battle without any preparation, the result would be the same as Redstone City's, ultimately leading to a crushing defeat.
After a long pause, the Prince of Zhennan spoke up: "Director Zou's words make sense. This letter can be trusted, but it cannot be completely relied upon. If anyone sends a letter in the future, it must be verified."
Just as the Prince of Zhennan finished speaking and was about to continue, a whooshing sound came from behind him, and everyone present immediately became alert.
"Oh no! Assassins! Protect the Prince of Zhennan!"
Fan Yaodong and the others rushed to the door, but just as they were preparing to meet the enemy, they found that there were no enemies outside.
At this moment, everyone's gaze fell upon a pillar in the council hall, where an arrow was stuck, and a piece of paper seemed to be tied to the arrow.
Fan Yaodong leaped up and took the arrow off, then untied the letter attached to it and glanced at its contents.
Xiong Qingcang asked from the side, "Who was it that sent us the message again?"
Fan Yaodong said with a solemn expression, "Yes, the letter said that those few ghost kings are preparing to attack Fenghai City."
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's words, everyone in the hall was taken aback.
Fenghai City has a population of over 20, making it a relatively large city.
Weren't those previous Demon Kings always targeting remote cities? Why are they suddenly attacking a large city like Fenghai City this time?
Xiong Qingcang said, "Could it be that we severely injured those Ghost Kings in Redstone City, and they want to recover their strength as soon as possible, so they risked attacking a prosperous city like Fenghai City?"
Fan Yaodong said, "That possibility cannot be ruled out."
At this point, Fan Yaodong looked at the Prince of Zhennan.
The Prince of Zhennan said, "Now that we know the next move of those few demon kings, we should prepare accordingly."
Although they were not yet certain whether the letter was part of a conspiracy by those Ghost Kings, they had to seize any opportunity to seal them away.
A desolate wind, carrying a putrid, eerie atmosphere, howled and howled through the mass grave.
The mountains and fields were covered with exposed bones, severed limbs and remains mixed in with the weeds, and broken coffins were scattered crookedly everywhere.
The sky was a low, gray haze, and layers of black fog enveloped the entire hillside.
On the hilltop, four dark figures gazed at the distant city. The Night Demon King spoke, "Are we truly going to attack Fenghai City?"
Although they weren't seriously injured in the battle of Redstone City, their strength hasn't fully recovered. Cities like Fenghai City, with their large populations and strong Zhou Dynasty fortune, exert a significant suppression on their power.
If there are many spiritual warriors in Fenghai City, or if the Zhengui Division is stationed there, then they will have to pay a heavy price to take over Fenghai City.
The number of evil spirits they had gathered was already small. They had consumed a large number of evil spirits in the last battle in Redstone City. In addition, they didn't have many strange creatures under their command. The Night Demon King was not optimistic about this operation.
The Blood-Eyed Demon King chuckled and said, "Who said we were going to attack Fenghai City?"
Upon hearing Blood-Eyed Ghost King's words, Silent Night Ghost King was taken aback: "Then why did you bring us here?"
At this moment, the Eternal Dark King said, "Could it be that you want that traitor hiding in the shadows to deliver false information to the Town of Demons and Monsters, so that we can attack other cities?"
After realizing that there might be a traitor among them, the four ghost kings immediately went back and investigated their strange subordinates.
But no matter how they investigated, they couldn't find anything suspicious that might have betrayed them.
They were well aware that many of the supernatural beings under their command were considering joining the Heavenly Fortune Sect, since Yun Yudie possessed the ability to resurrect supernatural beings.
Only those beings at the higher realms of the Profound Realm are immortal. Those at lower realms can be killed, but if they become Yun Yudie's subordinates, even if killed, they will one day be resurrected by Yun Yudie. (End of Chapter)
