Xu Bai didn’t waste any time and followed behind.
After they left, the camp shook. Zhu Shan led hundreds of soldiers back to the camp. He looked at the empty space with a gloomy expression.
He had chased after her for so long, but in the end, it was a shadow. He knew that he had fallen into a trap and quickly ran back, but he was still a step too late.
“Shadow Manipulator!” “I’ll catch you. As long as you’re in Fallen Phoenix City, you won’t be able to escape!” Zhu Shan said darkly.”
Zhu Shan’s voice sounded in the deep night sky.
Great Chu, Capital City.
Director Mu’s white-haired hand was holding a white chess piece and was about to place it on the chessboard.
There was no one on the other side. He was playing chess with him.
A person suddenly walked out from the corner of the room.
This person was dressed in ordinary clothes, but he was already middle-aged. His aura was extraordinary.
– Transcendent Realm.
“Milord, Shadow Moon has already revealed his identity to Prince Xu. Everything will proceed according to plan.”
“Got it.” Director Mu frowned and did not raise his head. After a moment of hesitation, he placed the white stone in a corner.
After a while, Director Mu raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man who was still standing in the same place. His frown deepened.
“Why not?”
“Sir, this subordinate does not understand.” The middle-aged man said respectfully,” Why are you beating around the bush? You want Shadow Moon to reveal her identity? Why don’t you tell Xu Bai directly from the beginning?””
Director Mu smiled and said meaningfully,”Do you think it’s unnecessary?”
The middle-aged man did not speak. It was not appropriate for him to point it out at this time.
However, he did not say anything.
Director Mu waved his sleeves, and the chessboard in front of him automatically returned to its original position. The black pieces fell into one of the chess baskets, and the other white pieces fell into the other.
He stood up and walked to the window, looking at the crowd outside.
“I gave Shadow Moon a way out. Originally, it was a 100% chance of death, but now it’s a 10% chance of death.”
The middle-aged man still did not understand.
Director Mu continued,” If Ying Yue doesn’t go and save those people today, she won’t be able to live. She can only die.””
“Why?” The middle-aged man asked.
Director Mu raised his hand and did not speak.
The middle-aged man knew this very well. He took out a teacup from the side and handed it to Director Mu.
Director Mu took a sip.
“She has been staying in the Great Yue State since she was young. Although she is a spy here, what I want to know is whether her heart is still in the Great Yue State.”
“What does our Great Chu pay attention to?”
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said,”The commoners are the most important. Although there are still many dirty places, most people have done it.””
When there were enough people in a group, it was inevitable that some dirty phenomena would appear. It was impossible to guarantee that it would be 100% clean. At the very least, Great Chu could do most of it.
” That’s why I need to take this opportunity to see her,” Director Mu said.” If I save her, it will prove that Shadow Moon still has principles and hasn’t been corrupted by the Great Yue State.””
“What if there isn’t?”
“No?” “I’ll find someone to kill her and then replace her with someone else.””
“Me?” The middle-aged man asked.
Director Mu nodded.
The middle-aged man pondered for a long time. In the end, he could not help but ask,”Little sister…There’s still a way out?”
Director Mu patted the middle-aged man’s shoulder and said,””Ying Nian, there’s only a slim chance of survival. There’s still a lifetime left. It all depends on whether Xu Bai can help her survive.”
Mu Yingnian remained silent.
“Do you hate me for scheming against your own children?”Director Mu asked.
Mu Yingnian did not reply.
“All of this is for the people of Liming.”
“I’ve been planning this for so many years. I even let you and your sister enter this plan.”
“Now, my chance has come. If your sister can bear this responsibility, then let her be. If she can’t, then let you be. This is fate.”
“In this position, I enjoy the admiration of everyone and enjoy a life of luxury. I have to do my own thing. You are the same. You are my children, so you have to do what you should do.”
“Yes, my lord!” Mu Yingnian hurriedly cupped his fists.”
“Since there’s no one here today, just call me father.”Director Mu sighed.
“Father!” Mu Yingnian said.
Director Mu was dispirited. He waved his hand and didn’t seem to want to say anything more.
Mu Yingnian didn’t say anything else and turned to leave. However, before he left, he turned back to look at his father.
Under that white-haired back, he always gave off an indescribable sense of loneliness.
Year, Month, and Day were the three children of Director Mu.
The sun is dead, only the years are left.
For the sake of Great Chu, this old man had laid out a plan for decades. Even his descendants had been sacrificed.
“Is it worth it?” Mu Yingnian muttered to himself.
Great Yue Country, medicinal herb shop.
Xu Bai sat upright on a chair, looking at Ying Yue in front of him. He calmly took a sip of tea.
“Tell me, what kind of news is it that is worthy of your attention?”
