Chapter 1048: Chapter 525: Zhou’s Schemes (Part 4)

"Hmm!"

Shadow nodded, but his expression also grew complex at this moment.

He wanted to complete the task given to him by Zhou as soon as possible, but once this task was completed, the Three Races would charge out of the Blood Cry Realm, and who knows how many people would die then.

What he cared about was not these people guarding Great Yu, but those ordinary civilians outside.

"Why would the master do this!"

At this moment, his heart was very conflicted, completely unable to understand.

After all, even though Hidden Kill and Great Yu were arch-enemies, at the end of the day, this was an internal matter of the Human Race. Now the master was standing on the side of the alien races, which, although beneficial to Hidden Kill, was a disaster for the Human Race.

Elder Ji could see through his thoughts at a glance, and merely said lightly, "Just trust the master."

Compared to Shadow, he had been following Zhou for a longer time.

He even provided guidance for Zhou’s Array.

He believed that Zhou had his own reasons for doing this.

"Then I’ll have to trouble Elder Ji."

Then he left from there.

"Alas!"

Elder Ji sighed; although he said so, to be honest, he really couldn’t understand Zhou either.

....

Time passed day by day.

Duke Yuan, after clearing the remnants of the two races in the Three Mansions, finally returned to the Imperial City.

In the Imperial Palace.

Duke Yuan recounted the situation of the Three Mansions in detail.

"You’ve worked hard."

Emperor Yu, long unseen, revealed a slight smile; the recovery of the Three Mansions also regained the face of Great Yu.

Of course, he was happy.

"This old minister has left many experts in the Three Mansions, and any movement will be instantly relayed to the Imperial City."

"Hmm!"

Emperor Yu nodded, handing all matters to them for so many years, also granting them the autonomy to handle things independently.

"However, the other people of the two races were not found, as if they vanished into thin air."

Duke Yuan’s face showed concern.

For him, reclaiming the Three Mansions was a minor matter; the disappearance of so many from the two races was the real big problem.

"Do you have any news over there?"

Emperor Yu’s gaze turned to Zhan Tian and Duke Qin in Qixuan Hall.

"No!"

The two shook their heads.

"This old minister sent orders to the Hundred Mansions and Three Judicial Departments, but found no traces of the two races."

"Could they have returned to the Stone Race or Hidden Forest Abyss?"

Duke Qin spoke up.

"Hard to say!"

"Should we send someone in to take a look?"

"Hmm!"

Emperor Yu nodded, "Go with Zhan Tian’s suggestion and send someone to check it out!"

"You decide who goes in."

"You’ve all worked hard during this time, I am also tired, you may withdraw!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The three stood, slightly bowed, and left Qixuan Hall in succession.

Outside!

The three walked side by side.

"Congratulations, you’ve finally achieved a Realm Breakthrough!"

Duke Qin looked at Zhan Tian, smiling in congratulations.

Since he returned to the Imperial City, this was the first meeting between them, and thus the congratulations were delayed for many days.

"Just so-so, it’s nothing special!"

Zhan Tian said calmly.

He appeared indifferent, but his eyes were full of pride. Who was Duke Qin? How could he not see through it?

He also knew Zhan Tian’s personality was just like that.

"By the way, who should we send to these two places?"

"In the territories of the two races, our Human Race will experience suppression the longer they stay, and it will also be uncomfortable!"

"Moreover, there are certainly experts inside!"

Duke Qin spoke slowly, after all, it was their main base, it’s impossible not to leave anyone there.

Considering past dynasties and all these years in Great Yu, why these dangerous places couldn’t be eradicated was, at the root, they wouldn’t come out, and Great Yu didn’t dare to attack in.

Because in the Ten Great Dangerous Lands, the Human Race would experience suppression, and the more people went in, the stronger the suppression!
