Everyone present became nervous.

Everyone understood that one must not act rashly when encountering a demonic cultivator shortly after leaving Kyoto.

"I wonder what kind of demonic cultivator could make Master Lu so embarrassed?" Li Yue asked.

"It's the Twelve Earth Demons." Lu Yuguan said slowly.

Everyone gasped and whispered among themselves.

"...Earth Demon?"

"Is it a sect of demonic cultivators?"

"I remember the incident in Kyoto's Flower Street. It seemed to be the work of the Twelve Earth Demons."

Li Yue raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet and signaled Lu Yuguan to continue speaking.

Lu Yuguan told everything that happened last night in detail, but concealed the details from the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Lord and the Little Black Cat.

Zhou Zhou and Chen Xian, who were standing nearby, were terrified when they heard this.

Unexpectedly, when they were away, Lu Yuguan actually experienced so many thrilling things.

"Are you saying that the mysterious hairy apes in Hou Manor actually ganged up on the demon cultivators and devoured them?"

Li Yue said in shock.

"Yes, even the giant moth was eaten clean."

Lu Yuguan said seriously.

Li Yue was silent for a moment, then turned to give instructions to the general beside him.

"One-Eye, take two teams of cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage to investigate the situation at Hou Manor. If there are any abnormalities, report back immediately without delay."

"As ordered."

The one-eyed man stood up, accepted the order and left the main tent.

Houzhuang is a must-pass place for the southern expedition army, and its strategic location is of vital importance. In order to ensure the smooth passage of the army, it is necessary to understand the actual situation of Houzhuang.

Li Yue frowned as she looked at the black cross on the table.

Except for Bai Xiao, no one else knew that Houzhuang was actually Yinzhuang.

He had no idea what had happened to this place. Those so-called terrifying hairy apes were most likely the product of Yinzhuang.

The Ministry of War concealed the matter from the officials.

It must be related to this monster.

"No matter what, we must report this matter to the court as soon as possible and let the emperor make the final decision." Li Yue said decisively, her voice full of urgency. "Where is the clerk?"

"My subordinate is here."

The clerk at the end stood up and said.

"Quickly write a letter and report everything Mr. Lu said to the emperor. Don't leave anything out!"

"I obey my orders."

Seeing the situation was so serious, everyone present fell into indescribable panic.

Not to mention the unknown creatures in Houzhuang.

The demon cultivators lying in ambush along the way were enough to make everyone question the safety of this trip.

"They're able to dispatch high-level Foundation Establishment cultivators. It seems these bastards are quite capable," Li Zhonglin said slowly. "But don't worry, everyone. As long as we're within the borders of Longhua, we'll be safe."

"Your Highness, that's easy to say. We're still a few days away from Nanzhou. Who knows if there will be any other unexpected events?"

The voice came from the northern border. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was indeed Mu You who was mocking them.

"Nonsense!"

When Erzhu heard Mu You's ridicule, he couldn't bear the anger and jumped out.

"How dare you, a northern barbarian, speak to the Crown Prince like that?"

Mu You snorted coldly and ignored Erzhu.

"Let grandpa teach you a lesson!——"

After Erzhu finished speaking, he took out the big iron hammer hanging diagonally on his waist in front of everyone, ready to hit Mu You.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the people in the North quickly took up their positions and prepared to resist.

Zhou Zhou was the first to arrive at the front. As the second in command of the Northern Territory monk team, he had to ensure the safety of everyone.

"We were the ones who spoke rudely. We hope the General will forgive us!" Zhou Zhou said calmly while raising his hand to block.

"Brother Mu, why don't you apologize to the Crown Prince?" Zang Qing's eyes were full of light as he explained to Erzhu urgently, "General, we have something to discuss!"

Zhao Zimo stood aside and did not take any action. He wanted to see whether the biggest traitor in the Northern Border team would be suppressed by the generals of Longhua Kingdom.

"General, please put away your weapons."

Li Chonglin saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly shouted to stop it.

"Your Highness, what else is there to say?" Erzhu was so angry that his black beard stood up. "These barbarians from the northern border are almost riding on our heads. How can we endure such bullying in our own army?"

"Niu Erzhu, please step back."

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Li Yue ordered Erzhu to stop.

"Big brother!"

Erzhu was so anxious that he stamped his feet, but there was no reason for him to disobey the order of his own coach.

"If you can bear it, bear it yourself. I can't bear it anyway!"

Li Yue didn't say anything. Just by sitting in her seat, she gave off an oppressive feeling.

Seeing that Li Yue didn't say anything, Erzhu could only hold back his anger, sit back in his original seat and glare at Mu You.

Calm returned to the tent, and the tense atmosphere just now seemed to be just a moment.

"My comrade is right. No one had expected this kind of thing to happen." Li Chonglin said slowly without changing his expression.

Lu Yuguan was caught in the middle, and it was a thrilling sight to watch.

"That guy is so brave, is his mouth pierced by a needle?"

"Speak so harshly?"

【Host, you are not bad either】

"Hey, Tongzi, you're kind of slandering me," Lu Yuguan retorted. "How could I have ever said something so violent?"

[The destructive power of your coquettishness is no less than a small nuclear bomb]

Instead of torturing me

[It would be better to just give me a quick death]

Lu Yuguan: ...

"Tongzi, I'm really going to sue you now..." Lu Yuguan said quietly.

【rest assured】

I am your lawyer

Lu Yuguan:?

I am also the judge

Lu Yuguan: ...

"In this southern expedition, all of you have a common enemy," Li Chonglin continued, addressing the crowd. "Before we resolve the demonic cultivators, I ask all of you to refrain from acting rudely, unite as one, and put aside your prejudices."

Zhao Zimo narrowed his eyes and said, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said so, how can there be any reason to refute it?"

After Zhao Zimo finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Mu You.

Mu You looked at Zhao Zimo's cold and deep eyes, and naturally knew what Prince Xin Zhao meant.

He stepped forward reluctantly and leaned forward, saying, "Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness. Please forgive my rudeness."

"I think you are just being sincere, no need to say more."

Li Chonglin replied indifferently, which was considered as a way to give Mu You a way out.

Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Li Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Asking him to lead the two princes into battle was like carrying two giant Buddhas, which was indeed a huge challenge.

"It's almost time. Let's rest here for another half an hour and then the entire army will continue to advance." Li Yue said in a deep voice.

"As ordered."

After everyone left the main tent, Lu Yuguan couldn't wait to get close to Zhao Zimo, wanting to follow him to play with the little sesame seeds.

"I was so scared just now. I almost thought they were going to fight," Lu Yuguan rubbed Zhao Zimo's arm and said anxiously, "Hurry up, hurry up. I haven't seen Xiao Zhima for a long time. I wonder if he's hungry?"

"Anyway, I'm starving."

Zhao Zimo looked down at the clingy Lu Yuguan, whose soft and tender face was like a kitten and made people want to ravage it.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuguan looked up and asked when he saw that Zhao Zimo didn't respond.

"Nothing, I just suddenly found it quite amusing," Zhao Zimo said with a chuckle, "Are you starving?"

"Come on, let's take Little Sesame and go get something to eat."

"it is good!"

Lu Yuguan's eyes lit up.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Li Chonglin, who had a calm face.

"or……"

"Your Highness is coming too?"
