Fellow Daoist, your script is really good.

Because Ju Menglu has been imprisoned ever since she was abducted.

However, Su Li stroked his chin, a plan forming in his mind.

The other party dared to sell the Centaur royal family and wanted to buy military equipment.

This actually indicates that the war between the Centaur Kingdom and the Sacred Horse Kingdom has entered a critical stage.

Only in this way would the Centaur royal family not have the time to investigate Ju Menglu's disappearance, and even if other tribes found out, it wouldn't matter much.

Everyone is fighting amongst themselves; it's difficult enough to take care of oneself, let alone others...

Of course, all of this was just Su Li's speculation.

After chatting with Ju Menglu for a few minutes, Bai Yeye and Xiao Tao went to the backyard.

Upon seeing Bai Yeye, Ju Menglu trembled uncontrollably with fear.

"Little sister, don't worry, we mean you no harm. I want to ask you some questions, just answer me truthfully."

Then I'll put you back, okay?

Bai Ye said gently.

"Huh?"

Hearing Bai Yeye's words, Ju Menglu blinked and looked at the older sister in front of her in disbelief.

"Sister... are you really going to let me go back...?"

Ju Menglu was a little uneasy.

The impact of Bai Yeye's imperial power when he crippled the Lei Xiong clan and the Centaur Kingdom was truly immense.

"It really can."

Bai Ye smiled gently, a stark contrast to her cold and aloof demeanor the night before, when she was like a killing god.

"Because we also plan to trade with the Centaur Kingdom, maybe we can get along well in the future."

"Then... big sister, you can ask..."

Ju Menglu swallowed hard. At this point, Ju Menglu really had no other choice.

First of all... you...

"Your Highness."

Just as Bai Yeye was about to ask a question, a maid suddenly rushed in.

"What's the matter?"

"Your Highness..."

The maid Xiaohua glanced at the mare in the cage.

"Chief Canglang just sent someone with an urgent report—the entire royal family of the Centaur Kingdom... has been wiped out..."

......

......

Sigh... Making money is so hard. I get lectured by my boss every day, and I only get a small salary. I'm treated like a beast of burden...

If it weren't for the lack of money, who would want to work...?

Let's order a roast duck to have. It's been a long time since I've had a late-night snack; I'll have it tonight.

Chapter 673 The Second Prince

"Chief Canglang just sent someone with an urgent report—the entire royal family of the Centaur Kingdom... has been wiped out..."

The maid Xiaohua's words echoed slowly through the courtyard.

"Huh?"

Everyone who heard the maid Xiaohua's voice froze on the spot...

Especially the mare Monroe.

She doubted she had heard correctly.

how can that be possible?

How could the royal family possibly be destroyed?

My uncles and aunts are all so formidable, how could those people possibly defeat them!

What about his father and mother...?

Could it be that Father and Mother have already...

Suddenly, Ju Menglu's mind went blank.

If what the other party says is true, and their parents are already dead...

"Impossible...it's impossible."

Large tears streamed down Ju Menglu's face.

"My parents will definitely be alright, and my uncles will definitely not lose."

This is definitely fake; you're definitely lying to me.

Waaaaah, you guys are definitely lying to me...

you......"

"Little sister?!"

Bai Yeye saw Ju Menglu collapse immediately.

Bai Yeye quickly summoned the demon doctor to treat Ju Menglu.

Fortunately, Ju Menglu is not seriously injured. However, due to the great shock and the constant tension she has been under, she is completely stunned and has fainted.

During the time Ju Menglu was unconscious, Su Li also learned what had happened.

That was the Centaur royal family launching a war against two tribes.

This campaign was something the royal tribe had been preparing for a long time; it was a major battle that could be described as a gamble on their very fate.

At first, the battle went very smoothly, and the two tribes were retreating one after another.

But at this very moment, a traitor appeared in the Centaur royal tribe.

The Centaur King was stabbed to death from behind by his own people while leading his army into battle. Then, many other tribes rushed out and surrounded the royal family.

I heard that a member of the royal family wanted to usurp the throne, so he planned all of this.

It's unclear what happened after that, but in any case, the royal family member who betrayed them was killed.

In the end, the entire Centaur royal family was slaughtered.

After the disappearance of the Centaur royal family, conflicts between the various Centaur tribes intensified, and the Centaur Kingdom is now mired in serious internal strife.

The only remaining member of the royal family is Ju Menglu, who is now just a horse.

If Ju Menglu were to return now, there's a high probability she would be killed.

Regardless, Ju Menglu can't go back.

Furthermore, the trade plan between Crocodile City and Centaur Kingdom is also to be cancelled.

To everyone else, Ju Menglu escaped a disaster by a stroke of luck this time.

but.

In Shiraba Ye's view, things might not be so simple.

The prince he mentioned during the transaction with the Thunder Bear clan that night must be one of my older brothers.

One of his older brothers definitely didn't just want a member of the Centaur Kingdom's royal family to ride.

Even their own father didn't do this, so how could their own brother dare to do it?

Therefore, it is possible that the internal strife that broke out in the Centaur Kingdom was instigated by his own brother.

Ju Menglu was also the only member of the Centaur Kingdom's royal bloodline that her brother deliberately kept, perhaps in order to control her.

Using Ju Menglu's royal lineage, she conquered the Centaur Kingdom through various means, bringing them under her control.

Of course, it's difficult to do that.

But it's not impossible.

A few days later, Bai Jingkong, who was in charge of interrogating the Lei Xiong clan and the soldiers of the Centaur Kingdom, returned.

Bai Jingkong had already pried open the mouths of the Thunder Bear Clan and some of the Centaur soldiers.

Indeed, one of the biggest reasons why the Thunder Bear Clan had the audacity to sell military equipment was the promise the Second Prince made to them.

The second prince of the Demon Kingdom promised the chieftain of the Thunder Bear clan many benefits.

If the other party could do something for him and bring over that royal mare, then the Thunder Bear clan could be given an important position.

Not only can they enjoy the benefits in the small place of Crocodile City, but they can also completely control an entire city and become a trusted clan of the Second Prince.

A high-ranking member of the Centaur Kingdom's royal tribe has already been bribed by the Second Prince.

The promise that the high-ranking official received was that he would only need to capture one member of the royal family and give him to the second prince.

Then the second prince will help the other party become the emperor of the royal family!

He could even become the emperor of the entire Centaur Kingdom!

That batch of military equipment, along with so many spirit stones and semi-immortal soldiers, was a small token of sincerity.

As a result, both sides were naturally tempted and agreed to work for the Second Prince.

As for anything else, they didn't know.

"I understand." Bai Yeye waved his hand. "Thank you for your trouble, Clan Chief Bai. Please go down now."

"Yes." Bai Jingkong bowed. "However, Lord City Lord, the Thunder Bear Clan and the Centaur Kingdom are no longer of any use. What should we do with them?"

“The Lei Xiong clan cannot be allowed to live, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the imperial court.”

As for the centaur people, let's keep them to work in the mines.

Bai Ye shook her head and slowly spoke.

"Yes."

Bai Jingkong bowed and withdrew.

Nowadays, the white-leafed cypress is increasingly exuding the aura of a superior.

Over the next three or four months...

Bai Yeye is determined to reform Crocodile City.

Although Baiye did not abolish the slave system of the human race, he formulated a series of measures to protect human slaves.

Although life for humans remains extremely difficult, many things cannot be accomplished overnight; such things require a gradual approach.

After completely controlling the three clans of Crocodile City, under Bai Yeye's leadership, Crocodile City became a place of political stability and social harmony, with everything flourishing.

Ju Menglu also woke up.

The little mare was quite depressed, but she gradually accepted the situation in her heart.

She longed to return to Centaur Country and to see her parents.

However, Ju Menglu also knew that if she went back now, she would not only fail to see her parents, but she would also likely die!

Baiyeye also received praise from the imperial court.

Bai Yeye's achievements in Crocodile City are obvious to all, and there are also Duan Bo and the Demon Emperor behind him.

So Shiraba is going to get a promotion.

Almost a year has passed.

A year is a very short time for demons and cultivators, but for Su Li, it felt like an eternity...

There are still two years until my triumphant return...
