Cultivation Pet Shop-Chapter 894 Sudden Change In The Battlefield (3)

The Mu Stellar King could see that unwilling look in his eyes, but he didn't say anything else.

He had faith in Lin Fan and he knew that what would come would prove his abilities. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

However, before ending the meeting, he didn't forget to add, "General, I want you to send some powerful experts on the scouting team. You can't underestimate the enemy, do you understand?"

General Li once again revealed a slightly confused and unwilling look, but he gave a nod in the end and said, "Yes, your majesty."

With this the Mu Stellar King ended the meeting and left the call.

Since the Mu Stellar King was gone, that meant that the meeting was over and all of the various generals headed back to their posts.

But there was a group of generals that stayed and followed General Li back to his tent.

Ying had noted all of this, but she didn't do anything for now since she knew that it would be meaningless to do anything. For now, it was better to watch and ensure that they didn't do anything to Lin Fan.

As for whether they believed his abilities or not, what they would find would prove it.

It was just a matter of time and making sure that no one did anything rash.

So she headed back to Lin Fan's shop right away to stand guard over him.

When General Li and his group of generals entered his tent, they all sat down with heavy looks on their faces.

There was a long period of silence before one of the generals suddenly said, "We can't let this continue any longer! If that child of unknown origins is still capable of affecting our king's judgement, our Mu Stellar Kingdom will collapse."

This was what they were all thinking, but since no one said anything, it was hard for them to bring it up.

But once one person spoke up, they all started speaking up and backing that person up.

They talked about how Lin Fan was a cancer to their Mu Stellar Kingdom and was slowly degrading the judgement of their king. They talked about how Lin Fan was so deeply entrenched that he was even affecting the judgement of the princess, preparing to influence the kingdom even after the king stepped down. There was even talk that Lin Fan was actually the true father of the princess which was why the Mu Stellar King acted this way…

But of course, it was all nonsense.

It was just too bad that once they got started, they couldn't stop themselves.

At first it was just blaming Lin Fan, but soon it got much darker.

There were even plots to take care of Lin Fan or even kill him before it got too late. They acted like patriots who were removing a blight from their beloved Mu Stellar Kingdom, but they were actually just a group of people who were plotting a murder without proper reason.

It was a good thing that General Li was there to stop them.

"Enough." General Li said in a strict voice.

All of the generals suddenly fell silent and turned to look at General Li with surprised looks.

They had thought that he would be the one most passionate about this since he was the one that cared about the Mu Stellar Kingdom the most. They had all seen how he looked at the meeting, so it should have been clear that he was the one that was most dissatisfied with Lin Fan.

However, now it seemed like he was sticking up for Lin Fan?

Why was he doing that?

General Li could see the doubt on their faces, so he said, "What will you accomplish by killing him?"

All the generals looked at each other before seriously considering this. They then revealed looks of understanding as they realized that they had been too rash about this.

General Li saw this and continued, "That's right, all you'll be doing is throwing our Mu Stellar Kingdom into chaos. Someone will have to pay for it and it will create a mass of internal strife for our kingdom. That is just how much weight that kid has in our king's heart, so we can't take this lightly."

The generals all revealed helpless looks since they agreed with what General Li said, but they still couldn't help feeling like there was something that they could do. One of them asked, "General Li, then do we just give up and do nothing?"

General Li was silent for a bit before shaking his head, "Of course we can't do nothing. We'll just simply carry out the mission that his majesty wants us to do."

All the generals once again revealed confused looks.

General Li saw this and explained, "If we find anything, then we can just consider it luck. However, if we don't find anything…"

He left his words unfinished, but the generals were all smart people and they were able to quickly pick up on his words.

"If we don't find anything, then we can use this as a basis to raise a formal complaint to his majesty. With this, he will have no choice but to reprimand that Lin Fan since this is a matter of utmost importance!"

"Right, when that happens, that Lin Fan won't be able to do anything with everyone's eyes on him and the rift will be created between them. When that time comes, it'll be easy for us to make a move."

General Li gave an approving nod when he heard this.

This group of generals in front of him were some of his most loyal followers. They were people that only had the best intentions of the Mu Stellar Kingdom in their heart, that was the kind of patriotism that they had.

He had full and implicit trust in this group in front of him.

With this decision, General Li said, "I want to leave this mission to a few of you. That way we can get the most accurate information and give a proper complaint to his majesty."

The way that he spoke, it was as if he had already deemed that this information was false and Lin Fan was guilty.

But none of the other generals minded this.

In fact, there were many of them that were suddenly filled with excitement.

They had been worried about what to do, but now that there was a path in front of them, it was hard for them not to be excited.

General Li picked two of his most trusted generals to lead this scouting mission and they ended this meeting there.

However, after the meeting ended, General Li couldn't help feeling a bad premonition…

…

A few days later, that bad premonition proved to be true.

General Li received the report that there were actually Beast Emperors lurking along their border and when the generals had gone to scout them, they had been discovered and seriously injured. They had been able to escape with their lives, but it would take at least a year for them to recover from these injuries.

If he had taken this more seriously and sent more experts, then perhaps their injuries wouldn't have been as serious.

These generals were like brothers to him since they had followed him through many wars for their Mu Stellar Kingdom. Now that they had been injured because of his negligence, he couldn't help being wracked with guilt.

However, when it rained, it poured.

The reports didn't just stop there.

There were other reports of Beast Race Experts attacking planets that were at the Mu Stellar Kingdom's borders.

When they received these reports, they had immediately deployed soldiers to save the people on those planets.

However, things just kept getting worse.

The armies of the Mu Stellar Kingdom and the Ran Stellar Kingdom were ambushed the moment that they arrived in space around the planet. However, it wasn't just the Beast Race Experts that attacked them.

To their surprise, they found that the troops of the Tai Stellar Kingdom and the Bai Stellar Kingdom were also waiting for them.

The two sides only attacked the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms troops, never attacking each other. It was as if there was a tacit understanding between the two of them that they would only be attacking the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms.

Being sandwiched like this, the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms had to retreat.

During this retreat, they suffered heavy casualties and even the loss of two World Realm Experts which was a serious blow to their forces.

This allowed the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms to move their forces in and occupy several planets on the Mu Stellar Kingdom's border, officially moving the frontline further into the Mu Stellar Kingdom's territory.

Then after they defeated the forces of the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms, they turned onto the Beast Race.

However, there was no fight at all as the Beast Race troops immediately ran away. The Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdom forces didn't even chase after them, they just allowed them to escape.

It was clear that there was something between the Beast Race and these two Stellar Kingdoms.

But before they could investigate, the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms released a statement accusing the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms of colluding with the Beast Race. They also stated that their occupation of the cities on the border of the Mu Stellar Kingdom was to free them from the occupation of the Beast Race.

With them making the first move like this, there wasn't much that the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms could do. If they were to make a statement now, it would just seem like they were trying to make excuses.

The only thing that they could do was capture some Beast Race Experts to make them confess the truth, but they couldn't even find the tail of the Beast Race.

It was almost as if they were never there…
