Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Could it be that the person who just experienced ninety-nine bolts of heavenly lightning...

It's Qin Yu!?

The idea had barely surfaced in Zhang Dongze's mind when he immediately dismissed it.

What a joke!

Although Qin Yu's talent is extraordinary, he is only eighteen years old at the time.

Can someone break through to the Martial Emperor level at the age of eighteen?

Even cheating wouldn't be possible!

Zhang Dongze shook his head, looked at Qin Yu seriously, and questioned him.

"Tell me honestly, where did you go just now?"

Qin Yu said with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression:

"I saw that our situation was critical, so I secretly slipped out to call for reinforcements!"

Zhang Dongze's lips twitched slightly: "Isn't that just deserting!"

"Hey? Old Zhang, you're mistaken." Qin Yu waved his hand: "What we scholars do can't be called desertion, it should be called a tactical retreat."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Zhang Dongze flicked Qin Yu on the back of the head, but a smile appeared on his lips.

Anyway,

It's good news that the kid is alright!

……

The Ancestral Dragon Palace, the Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!" Wei Lixian rushed in, looking flustered.

Upon seeing this, the Great Xia Emperor, who was reviewing the case files, frowned.

“Wei Lixian, you are a senior member of the palace. How can you act so hastily? What kind of behavior is this?”

"This old servant knows his crime!" Wei Lixian knelt down with a thud.

The Great Xia Emperor said speechlessly, "You old dog, you've been by my side for decades. Can't you learn from me how to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of you?"

Wei Lixian smiled obsequiously, "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, with extraordinary bearing. This old servant can never compare to Your Majesty."

"You old dog." The Great Xia Emperor shook his head helplessly and waved his hand: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Tell me, what happened?"

"Just now, three Martial Emperor level divine officials from the Divine Envoy Society launched a surprise attack on the Night Town Recruit Training Camp."

"What!?"

The Emperor of Great Xia's pupils widened suddenly, and he slammed his hand on the table, his expression no longer calm and composed, but rather showing some anxiety:

"How is the situation now?"

"Apart from a few instructors who suffered some injuries, they are all fine. The new recruits have been transferred to another secret base."

"That's fine, that's fine."

The Great Xia Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down.

It should be understood that those selected for the Zhenye Division's special training camp are among the most talented elites in the Great Xia Dynasty. If they were all captured, the losses to the Great Xia Dynasty would be immeasurable.

Just then, the Great Xia Emperor suddenly realized that he had been somewhat out of line, and with an embarrassed expression, he coughed lightly and said:

"Ahem, that was just an accident. I am usually quite calm."

Wei Lixian: "..."

"Eh? Wait a minute!"

The Great Xia Emperor suddenly frowned: "If I remember correctly, there should only be one Martial Emperor in the special training camp, Zhang Dongze. How did he manage to protect all the new recruits when faced with an attack from three Martial Emperors?"

Wei Lixian was taken aback upon hearing this: "Didn't Your Majesty send Yin Hu, the spy you planted in the Divine Envoy Society, to provide support?"

"A spy planted by me? Yin Hu?" The Emperor of Great Xia was taken aback. When did Yin Hu become their spy?

The Emperor of Great Xia suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Tell me in detail, what exactly is going on?"

Subsequently, Wei Lixian recounted in detail what had happened in the special training camp, especially Yin Hu's appearance to provide support and his claim to be an undercover agent planted by the Great Xia government.

The Emperor of Great Xia was completely dumbfounded after hearing this.

Is Yin Hu an undercover agent sent out by the Great Xia government?

How come he, the highest leader of the Great Xia Dynasty, didn't know about this?!

"Your Majesty's wisdom and foresight, your strategic planning and ability to win battles from afar, truly fill this old servant with the utmost respect!"

"Alright, alright, stop flattering me." The Great Xia Emperor waved his hand: "Yin Hu is not a spy I planted."

"Isn't Yin Hu a spy planted by Your Majesty?" Wei Lixian was taken aback upon hearing this. Then whose man was Yin Hu?

The Emperor of Great Xia narrowed his eyes, tapping his fingers on the table as he fell into deep thought.

This incident is full of suspicious details.

But one thing is certain: since the Divine Envoy Society knew the exact location of the Night Town Recruit Training Camp, it means that there were spies from the Divine Envoy Society planted within the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Immediately investigate all officials who know the location of the Zhenye Division's new recruit training camp!"

"Yes!" Wei Lixian nodded respectfully, but did not leave.

"Huh? Why aren't you leaving yet?" The Great Xia Emperor was taken aback.

"Your Majesty, this old servant has something else to report, and this matter is far more shocking than what this old servant reported before. Please be prepared."

Upon hearing this, the Great Xia Emperor couldn't help but smile contemptuously:

"You old dog. I've seen all sorts of storms over the years. Speak freely, and if my expression changes even slightly after hearing your words, it means I have poor mental fortitude!"

"Commander Zhang reports that after defeating the three Martial Emperor realm officials from the Divine Envoy Society, he discovered a mysterious expert undergoing tribulation and breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm in a dense forest 100 kilometers away from the special training camp."

"Heh, I thought it was something big. After all this time, this is all?" The Great Xia Emperor chuckled.

Wei Lixian took a deep breath: "Your Majesty, according to Commander Zhang's report, he personally witnessed that this person went through ninety-nine lightning tribulations when he broke through."

The smile on the Great Xia Emperor's lips vanished instantly, and he could hardly believe his ears:

"Steal, steal the young master!???"

……

In a remote little mountain village.

A burly man with dark skin is carrying a hoe and tilling the land in the field.

A little girl with braided pigtails skipped and hopped toward him, a bright smile on her face, and said, "Uncle Erniu, please have some candy."

Li Erniu smiled indulgently and patted the little girl's head.

"Thank you, Yaya."

Just then, a figure suddenly descended from the sky, kneeling on one knee before Li Erniu, his voice trembling as he said:

"My Lord, something terrible has happened!"

The little girl was startled when she saw the figure suddenly fall from the sky and screamed loudly.

"what!!!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Long, who was kneeling before Li Erniu, flashed a cold light in his eyes:

"Noisy!"

Chenlong raised his hand and waved it, a flash of cold light passing by, instantly slicing across the little girl's neck, and a line of blood spurted out.

The little girl's eyes widened in horror. She tried to cry for help, but couldn't utter a word. Finally, she collapsed in the field with a thud.

Upon seeing this, Li Erniu immediately flew into a rage:

"You bastard! Who gave you permission to kill her! How many times have I told you, these people from the mountain village may not be my family, but they are more than family to me!"

"Yes, Your subordinate knows his mistake!" Chenlong quickly lowered his head and sincerely admitted his error.

Li Erniu snorted coldly: "Speak quickly, what is it!"

Chen Long swallowed hard, his voice trembling slightly as he said:

"The raid on the Zhenye Division's new recruit training camp failed. The Ox was captured alive, while the Sheep and Snake are missing."

"What!?"

Li Erniu's face instantly turned ashen, and an extremely terrifying killing intent suddenly erupted from him.

Just then, a little boy waved to him from a distance:

"Uncle Erniu, have you seen Yaya?"

"Noisy!"

Li Erniu's eyes were icy cold. He reached out and grabbed the boy's head, which instantly exploded!
