The Last Sentinel

"Reporting to Your Excellency, that fellow named Ye Feng..."

"What's wrong?"

"He, he... ah!"

Yu Huatian's five fingers were slender and jade-like. With a gentle stroke, the guard who came to report fell to the ground and died silently.

"You can't even speak properly, how did you infiltrate my Eastern Depot?" Yu Huatian looked at the other trembling guard with a sinister gaze. "You tell me."

Another guard hurriedly said, "My lord, you ordered the energy reserves of twenty armories to be opened for Ye Feng to absorb, and now Ye Feng has completely devoured all the energy in the twenty armories."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huatian suddenly grabbed the guard by the neck, gritting his teeth, and said, "Twenty warehouses! Do you know what twenty warehouses mean?"

"Even in the most prosperous region of the empire, the annual tax revenue can only buy enough energy for twenty warehouses!"

His subordinates, trembling with fear under Yu Huatian's pressure, kept begging for mercy, "Sir, you...you said you'd let that brat devour us, that as long as he could eat, let him eat as much as he wanted, but who would have thought he would actually...ah!"

His subordinate fell to the ground, dying silently.

Yu Huatian frowned, his eyes were closed, and his face was extremely ugly. He was right about what he said.

But that was an act!

If you really asked Yu Huatian to take out twenty warehouses of high-concentration heavy metal energy all at once, Yu Huatian would definitely not agree.

The problem now is that the pretentious guy has met the pragmatic guy, and the fake wife has turned into a real wedding night. The mud that was not shit when it was soiled has become shit.

Yu Huatian faced two paths.

The first option is to cut your losses and stop.

The second option is to increase investment.

The first option is to cut my losses and stop. But what about the twenty warehouses I invested in before? Wouldn't that be a complete waste of money?

The second option is to increase investment. But who should they ask for the additional investment? If they ask outsiders, they will definitely try to seize control of this super-ascended warrior, which is not in line with Yu Huatian's habit of keeping everything to himself.

Yu Huatian slowly opened his eyes and uttered a sentence, "Someone, summon the thirteen major merchants of Jinling and tell them that I have important business to attend to and that they must immediately assemble at the Eastern Depot."

Beside him, the deputy wearing a fanged, ghostly iron mask instantly understood Yu Huatian's meaning upon seeing his gaze. "Does the master mean to summon the thirteen wealthiest merchants in Jinling City and have them mobilize their guild's reserves of energy for Ye Feng to devour?"

Yu Huatian said, "There's no other way. In order to block Ye Feng's relevant information, I already owe Eunuch Yang a huge favor. If I give up now, my twenty warehouses of energy will be wasted. Now I can only bite the bullet and move forward, and first get the thirteen chambers of commerce to contribute their high-concentration elemental metal energy warehouses."

The deputy said, "I don't think thirteen wealthy merchants will listen to you, sir."

Yu Huatian's gaze was icy. "Then you'd better find a way to make them obey! Haven't there been many empty cells in the Imperial Prison recently?"

The deputy said, "Sir, both the Qingliu Party and the Yan Party are watching us now. If we fabricate a large number of wrongful convictions, I'm afraid..."

"Never mind that!" Yu Huatian suddenly grabbed a piece of intelligence and threw it at his deputy's face. "Take a look! This is all the information I gathered from the three major military commands regarding the Zhou Yunyi case. The mastermind behind this case has been identified: it's Meng Xinghun from the Chaotic Star Sea and the Ruins of Zhou Tian!"

Holding the intelligence report, the deputy exclaimed in disbelief, "How could this be! My lord, this Meng Xinghun is the last disciple of Doumu Xingzun of the Chaos Alliance. His strength is extraordinary. He possesses a primordial aura of righteous energy, his voice booming like a bell resounding through the chaos, his words like the descent of the Great Dao shattering evil spirits. He even once hunted down the Zerg prodigy, the Necromancer God Mu! How could this guy be involved in the Zhou Yunyi case?"

Yu Huatian paced back and forth and said, "I don't know if Meng Xinghun has taken the wrong medicine and is interfering in Zhou Yunyi's case, but one thing is certain: Zhou Yunyi is now in Meng Xinghun's hands, and to capture Zhou Yunyi within ten days, we must deal with Meng Xinghun."

"Meng Xinghun is an extremely dangerous person. The Chaos Venerable Mud Bodhisattva once glimpsed Meng Xinghun's destiny and praised him as invincible among his peers, with profound good fortune. Breaking through to the fifth level was as easy as walking on flat ground, and the Venerable realm was within his grasp! He has the potential to become a king in the future."

"Meng Xinghun himself is very cautious. He is like a venomous snake, careful in everything he does, and will never take action if he cannot understand the cause and effect of the situation."

"To deal with him, we can't use underhanded tricks. We must ask him for Zhou Yunyi in a straightforward manner. That's the simplest way."

The deputy said, "But, sir, Meng Xinghun is invincible at the second tier. No one below the second tier can match him. Even an undead necromancer like Mu was chased and hacked at by him. Who can we expect to defeat him? Unless it's someone above our tier..."

"Shut up!" Yu Huatian interrupted his subordinate. "According to the rules of the desolate universe, if a second-tier warrior is defeated or killed by a lower-tier warrior of the same tier, then life and death are determined by fate, and no one will retaliate."

"However, if a high-level cultivator crushes a low-level cultivator, it will trigger mutual retaliation, creating a chain of revenge!"

"Do you want to cause trouble for the Eastern Depot?"

The deputy said, "Please enlighten me, sir."

Yu Huatian looked towards the armory and muttered, "Ye Feng and Mu just fought. I watched the whole video of their battle. Ye Feng didn't completely crush Mu, but he was almost at the absolute advantage. This time, Ye Feng absorbed so much heavy metal crystal energy. Maybe he can go toe-to-toe with Meng Xinghun. As long as I can hold off Meng Xinghun, I can use the 'Star Shift' technique to take Zhou Yunyi away."

"You must set off immediately and summon the thirteen wealthy merchants to the Eastern Depot—no, first, take them to the Imperial Prison!"

"Go through the process for them."

The deputy retreated and quickly disappeared from sight.

Yu Huatian seemed to be deep in thought, then raised his hand and said, "Someone come here!"

A dark figure appeared behind him. "Sir, what are your orders?"

Yu Huatian held a Ru kiln blue and white porcelain teacup and said in a soft, feminine voice, "Help me contact Ding Xiu."

The figure in the shadows hesitated for a moment. "Sir, Ding Xiu is extremely greedy and often takes money without doing the work. He embezzled the last order from the Western Depot, and they've already put him on their wanted list. If we go looking for Ding Xiu, will it be...?"

Yu Huatian said, "The Western Depot? A bunch of useless trash. Look at Lu Jianxing and the others. Lu Jianxing would rather send Ye Feng here than send him back to the Western Depot. Zhao Jingzhong is nothing but a good-for-nothing. What can he do to me?"

The figure in black replied, "Yes."

Yu Huatian raised his hand and said, "Tell Ding Xiu to find Zhou Yunyi, whether he's dead or alive, and let him name his price."

The figure in shadow replied, "Yes!"

Yu Huatian tossed a box over his shoulder. "This is a deposit. Whether it goes through or not, this is his. He'll be interested."

The shadowy figure took the metal box, turned, and disappeared into the darkness.

The vast Eastern Depot was filled with a chilling atmosphere. Yu Huatian, hands behind his back, headed straight for the armory. He wanted to see just how capable Ye Feng really was. The energy reserves of the thirteen wealthy merchants of Jinling were close to one-tenth of the empire's total! Could he possibly handle it all? Was he a reincarnation of the gluttonous beast?
