Douluo: Emperor of Light

Chapter 49 Arrest

A manor is located not far outside the city, with beautiful mountains and rivers and pleasant scenery.

There is a neat gravel road leading directly into the city. Even at this time, there are still servants maintaining the road accordingly.

Feng Nan and Luo Ya were walking on this road, heading into the manor.

Before entering, you can already vaguely smell the scene of people drinking and laughing in the manor courtyard.

The nobles gathered in twos and threes, chatting in a small group, and burst into laughter from time to time. Servants walked around, carrying various items and providing all services to the guests here.

Cooks, maids, musicians, performers, they can be seen everywhere in the courtyard and manor.

But everyone here, no matter the noble servants, soul masters or civilians, acted as if they didn't see the two of them and let them pass by this lively place.

It wasn't until they entered a private, quiet room as if no one was there that Luo Ya and Feng Nan stopped.

"City Lord Chris, have you heard? It seems that people from Wuhundian headquarters have appeared in this city recently. If it is true, they will definitely find something."

There were three people sitting in the room without extra decorations. One of them was a fat man with a rich appearance, and he asked the other person in detail.

Chris sat relaxedly on the high chair and laughed twice, not taking these words too seriously.

"Maybe, but even if they find out now, it's already too late. The Lions have officially set out this morning, and it won't take long to take over the city."

"Thanks to your help in the past two months, we have taken care of the city guards, Wuhun Palace, and civilians. When the Lion Army entered the city without any hindrance, you all contributed a lot."

Listening to Chris's confident words, several people thought about this aspect and gradually felt relieved.

This was just a casual mention, and they also didn't think anything unexpected would happen now that the matter was at this point.

Chris saw a few people put aside their doubts and said with a smile:

"I invite you all here today mainly for future plans. In the Star Luo Empire, we outsiders are not familiar with each other."

"So we might as well form an alliance so that everyone can stay together for warmth. President Al and His Excellency the Viscount, what do you think?"

Fat Al's heart moved. Just when he was about to say something, he suddenly saw two people appearing beside him.

The high-end clothing of Wuhun Palace made his pupils dilate sharply.

"City Lord Chris, President Al, Baron Anri, it seems that all the problems here are dominated by you."

Roja's tone was cold. His words stunned the other two people for a second, and then they suddenly reacted.

In this extremely secretive place, three people from Wuhun Palace suddenly appeared!

"Guards, guards! Are you blind? Come here quickly!"

The gorgeously dressed Viscount Anli shouted loudly to the side, hoping that the soul master guards staying next door for personal protection could hear the sound.

Roja couldn't help but laugh. He came to the half-open door behind him and pushed it gently.

I saw that in a room that was even smaller than here, seven people like guards had fallen to the ground and were unconscious.

"Everyone, I believe you can see the situation in front of you clearly and don't resist needlessly."

"Now stand up and follow us out of here. I'm really not used to this kind of secret and dark place."

Feng Nan took a step forward and spoke to the three of them in a commanding tone with a cold face.

Chris clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and gave up resistance.

The current situation is unclear, but these two people from Wuhun Palace were able to sneak here secretly, and even took down the soul master who was under personal protection without them noticing.

This kind of strength is not something he can resist.

Thinking this, he stood up first, followed this person, and walked out of this hidden room.

Maybe others outside could help him out after seeing him like this.

Al and Anri secretly exchanged glances, and finally followed Chris unwillingly.

Seeing this, Luo Ya nodded with satisfaction, turned around and walked out first. Feng Nan was at the end, monitoring a few people and not letting them have any chance to make small moves.

At the same time, as the journey gets closer, the sound of the home field becomes clearer.

The exquisitely decorated venue has long been replaced by chaos. Various tables, chairs, items and food were kicked over and scattered randomly.

"I haven't committed any crime, why do you arrest me?"

A thin man was pressed on the table with his hands behind his back, his face turned sideways and shouting with disapproval.

"As the judge of the Inspectorate Hall, I don't need to listen to your explanation when doing things. I just need to cooperate honestly."

After one of the judges finished binding him, he used a tablecloth to gag the man's mouth.

"I refuse to accept it! You can't arrest me!"

"Take it away! Don't spare anyone, keep your eyes sharp!"

"You can't do this, not even Wuhun Palace! I want to sue you, go to Wuhun City to sue you!"

"..."

All the chaos and noise left Chris standing stunned.

He was horrified to find that this manor had been completely wiped out in a short period of time!

-

A little far away from Koinor City, a wide plain has long been replaced by a fortified camp that occupies a large area.

Qingyang has left the city and arrived at the place where the situation in the south will be decided.

A small piece of letter paper was held in his hand, and the information that had been read for a long time was burning up and disappearing one by one.

"According to the follow-up investigation, the local nobles seem to have reached some secret agreement with the Northern Governor of the Star Luo Empire, the commander of the Lion Army, the Marquis of Losston."

"Based on some of the information obtained, it is speculated that the nobles seem to have helped the Star Luo Empire seize and control several cities in the nearby Wuhun Palace in exchange for Xing Luo's noble status and corresponding protection."

"This information was proactively provided by a local wanted target, a defected veteran of the City Lord's Mansion. At the same time, the second trial team was defeated by him, and the mission was officially declared a failure."

"In addition, we also found out that the top leaders of Wuhun Palace in this city have been attracted by him, and both parties jointly planned the murder of the bishop."

"Some of the betrayers had passive contact with the Third Trial Team not long ago. After ascertaining their identities and intelligence, seven of their members were eliminated."

"It is worth mentioning that three members performed outstandingly. At the cost of being seriously injured and unconscious, they successfully killed the mission target, a Star Luo Empire liaison officer and a wanted Soul Sect."

"Another point is that it has been confirmed that this famine was artificially created to increase chaos and weaken Wuhun Palace's control over the local area, making it easier for the Star Luo Empire to accept the city."

"As for the two batches of food you are concerned about, their whereabouts have been discovered. The food from Wuhun Palace has long been divided up by the nobles, and the disaster relief food from the Star Luo Empire has been sent to the Lion Legion's station."

"The matter is of great importance. I have personally gone to the south to investigate. If there is an accident, it means that I can no longer escape."

As the last writing was burned up and disappeared into the sky and earth, Qingyang had entered the military camp.

The signature of those two words contained an ordinary name - Tang Jie.
