Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

After君无邪 and the others were seated, they got straight to the point, directly discussing the topic related to the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

The first thing mentioned was the head guard beside the Governor.

It was Qin Keqing who spoke.

The Governor, Xing Guoan's expression changed slightly, he was silent for a moment, and apologized to Jun Wuxie, Liang Wan'er, and Qin Keqing.

"It is due to my poor management and failure to supervise my subordinates that such a thing has occurred.

The head guard, Ruan Xing, left the Governor's office several years ago and is no longer serving by my side.

At that time, he suddenly left without any warning, and since then there has been no news of him.

I have been sending people to look for his whereabouts, worried about whether he had been murdered.

Until one time, someone saw a suspicious person resembling Ruan Xing, who actually had contact with the Eastern Turks.

My first reaction after learning of this was disbelief.

Alas, after all, Ruan Xing had been by my side for hundreds of years, and I thought I knew him relatively well, believing that he could not do anything to collude with the Eastern Turks.

Later, I sent people to investigate for many years, but never got any news about Ruan Xing again.

Until a few days ago, the Minister of War came here, bringing news from the Imperial City, mentioning Ruan Xing, and mentioning the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

I was very shocked at the time!

I never thought that Ruan Xing, who had disappeared for many years, had suddenly arrived in the Imperial City, and was being hunted down, fleeing to the Qin King's Mansion for help.

Before his death, he also revealed such shocking news as the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier.

Although it seemed absurd, after all, this matter was of great importance, concerning the lives and safety of the people of the Eastern Frontier.

As the Governor of the Eastern Frontier, I, as their caretaker, could not be careless in the slightest.

I accompanied the Minister of War to visit various cities in the Eastern Frontier to verify the truth of the news, and also sent a large number of personnel to verify from all aspects.

The final result has been reported to the Imperial Court by the Minister of War.

The Eastern Frontier is peaceful and harmonious, although the Eastern Turks are eyeing it covetously from beyond the border, with Marquis Champion guarding it, and twenty million brave soldiers defending the country outside the gates, the Eastern Turks cannot cross the line.

The blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is purely fictitious and completely fabricated by Ruan Xing.

I thought that the rumors would end when the Minister of War returned to the capital.

But I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Prince Consort and the Princess of the County would come to the Eastern Frontier in person."

Speaking of this, the Governor, Xing Guoan's expression shook slightly, and he suddenly looked at Liang Wan'er and Qin Keqing, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, Princess Anping, have you received any new news or clues, which is why you came to the Eastern Frontier to investigate this matter in person?"

"There is no new news or clues.

It's just that I feel that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is of great importance.

The Eastern Frontier has one billion subjects of my dynasty, and their lives and deaths cannot be neglected in the slightest, otherwise it will cause unimaginable disasters.

The Minister of War came to the Eastern Frontier for only three days, and I feel that the time is too short. He may have omissions, so I came here myself to reassure myself."

"So that's it, Your Royal Highness the Princess is concerned about the people, and I represent the one billion people of the Eastern Frontier to thank Your Highness.

Three days is indeed not enough time, and the Minister of War and I dare not say that we have investigated everything clearly.

However, the blood sacrifice is a large-scale event, and once it happens, it will inevitably be impossible to completely hide it.

I can guarantee this, there has been no large-scale disappearance of people in the cities of the Eastern Frontier, nor has there been any trace of blood.

That Ruan Xing, ah, I don't know what his purpose is in fabricating such a lie.

Even if he is a spy arranged by the Eastern Turks in our Great Liang, such actions will not bring any benefits to the Eastern Turks, right.

After all, such a lie is very easy to be exposed and it is difficult to cause panic in my Eastern Frontier.

But no matter what, Ruan Xing's move must have its purpose, it's just that I can't guess what his and the Eastern Turks' purpose is for the time being.

In order to prevent accidents, I requested Marquis Champion to send brave soldiers to take over the provincial capital, Yuan City, to strictly check those entering and leaving the city.

I never thought that the garrison captain who imposed the curfew would be blind and offend the Princess, the Prince Consort, and the Princess of the County, which is really unforgivable."

"So that's it, so it seems that our trip was in vain.

The truth of the matter is just as the Minister of War investigated, the blood sacrifice is simply non-existent."

"I can't guarantee anything else, but the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier is definitely a rumor.

Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Prince Consort, and the Princess of the County, since you have already come to the Eastern Frontier, it is not a wasted trip.

The customs and culture of the Eastern Frontier are different from those of the Imperial Dynasty, and Your Royal Highness and others can have a good experience in the Eastern Frontier.

I have already had people prepare a mansion, please move to the residence, Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Prince Consort, and the Princess of the County.

The journey from the Imperial City to the Eastern Frontier is long and arduous, Your Highness, the Prince Consort, and the Princess of the County, please rest today.

Tomorrow, I will personally accompany Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Prince Consort, and the Princess of the County to walk around and see the customs and culture of the Eastern Frontier's provincial capital."

"No need, I and others will just walk around and see for ourselves.

As for accommodation, just go to the official post, there is no need for Lord Xing to make other arrangements."

"Your Highness, how can this be done.

Although the conditions of the official post are acceptable, but you are a princess of the royal family, I should arrange it properly, how dare I neglect you!"

"I said no need."

"Yes, everything will be done according to the wishes of Her Royal Highness the Princess, I was too talkative."

The Governor, Xing Guoan, no longer insisted, and seeing Liang Wan'er and others getting up to leave, he quickly stood up and said: "I will send Your Highness and others to the official post."

Along the way, Liang Wan'er and Qin Keqing did not mention the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier again, and Jun Wuxie was even more so.

Since entering the Governor's office until now, he has not said a word, always remaining silent.

On the way to the official post, Liang Wan'er casually asked about the various situations of the Eastern Frontier in recent years.

The Governor, Xing Guoan, carefully answered beside her.

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Prince Consort, the Princess of the County, if you need anything, please let me know at any time."

Arriving at the entrance of the official post, the Governor said this, watching them enter the official post courtyard and disappear from sight.

Afterwards, the Governor left with his people.

Inside the official post, in the hall, Jun Wuxie, Liang Wan'er, and Qin Keqing were sitting around a table, all with thoughtful expressions on their faces.

"Young Master, have you noticed anything wrong?

The Governor's office is full of strangeness."

Liang Wan'er naturally would not believe what the Governor said.

Because every word he said contradicted the information she had.

"I also have this feeling."

Qin Keqing nodded, agreeing with the Princess's statement about the strangeness of the Governor's office.

"Strictly speaking, it is not the Governor's office that is strange, but the Governor, Xing Guoan, and the officials around him who are strange.

From the time I saw them until just now when we separated at the entrance of the official post, I have been carefully observing and sensing.

Whether it is the Governor, or the Chief Clerk and Military Advisor beside him, they all have abnormal mental fluctuations in their bodies.

With your soul realm, you should not be able to sense it."

"Abnormal mental fluctuations, what does the Young Master mean?"

Liang Wan'er was slightly stunned, and had some kind of guess in her heart.

After all, she can be considered knowledgeable, having been the Master of the Imperial God Immortal Mansion, and her understanding of things, her vision, etc., are much higher than those of people in the same realm.

"Could it be that their minds have been controlled by someone?"

Liang Wan'er said her guess.

"No, they are not being controlled.

The Eastern Frontier officials we saw today are not the real Governor, Chief Clerk, and Military Advisor.

They are impostors.

This disguise technique is quite superb, and it is difficult for ordinary strong people to see through it.

Basically, only people who are familiar with them may be able to see the clues."

"So, the real Eastern Frontier officials have been controlled, or have been killed?

But if they want to impersonate, they should have used the Soul Searching Technique on the real officials, obtained all their memories, even if they are very familiar people, I am afraid it is difficult to find flaws."

Liang Wan'er's head guard said this.

"No, the Eastern Frontier officials should still be alive."

Liang Wan'er denied the head guard's statement, "If the Eastern Frontier Governor and many officials all die inexplicably, it will be difficult to cover up this matter, and it will inevitably lead to suspicion throughout the world.

If a result cannot be given, it may make officials everywhere feel insecure.

Moreover, a corpse, if its soul has been searched before death, can be checked out with secret techniques.

Therefore, they dare not search their souls, and if they want to kill the Eastern Frontier officials, they will inevitably prepare a reasonable cause of death for them."

Speaking of this, Liang Wan'er looked at Jun Wuxie and said: "Young Master, I feel that the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier may ultimately point to the Eastern Turks and the mysterious people who have been active recently.

In this way, Liang Buqun can clear himself and Marquis Champion completely.

Pushing all the crimes to the Eastern Turks and those mysterious people.

In this way, the deaths of the Eastern Frontier officials will also have a cause of death.

Currently, it seems that the real Governor and others should still be alive, detained by them in some unknown place.

I don't know how much the Eastern Frontier Governor knows about the blood sacrifice of the Eastern Frontier, how many of their secrets he knows.

We now have to find a way to find out where the Governor and others are being held, and learn more about the situation from them."

"It is indeed necessary to find the real Governor and other main officials of the Eastern Frontier.

Princess, Keqing, you stay at the official post, I will go out for a while."

As Jun Wuxie spoke, he released a Primal Chaos Incarnation to replace his real body, paralyzing the eyes secretly watching the official post.

His real body then used the Minor Void Technique, disappearing into thin air in the room, silently leaving the official post.

"This incarnation…"

In the hall, Liang Wan'er and her head guard were shocked.

Primal Chaos's skills are really amazing.

His incarnation can actually do this to such an extent, it is impossible to tell that it is an incarnation, even using pupil techniques, you can't see any trace of it.

She has been with him for quite some time, and she knows his aura very well.

Even so, even at such a close distance, they still couldn't distinguish his true form.

Also, his concealment technique was so profound that the moment he vanished, not a trace of his aura remained, as if he had evaporated into thin air. It was impossible to sense him at all.

What realm is Yuan Chu even at?

Liang Wan'er's heart was far from calm.

Some time ago, Yuan Chu's consecutive victories against the strongest princes of the three kingdoms had already shocked her greatly.

She never imagined that he would not only possess heaven-defying combat power, but also equally heaven-defying auxiliary abilities.

Such a king among geniuses, with a sixteenth-grade unparalleled talent, how far would he grow in the future? It was simply unimaginable!

The head guard beside her was also shocked. The驸马 was truly too strong.

Now that the princess had such a true dragon husband, what a sight it would be in a few years when the 驸马's realm had improved!

Qin Keqing, however, was not too surprised, simply because she already knew his true identity.

The Eldest Princess didn't know that Yuan Chu was the faith of all beings in the Three Realms, the mythical legend who silenced the darkness in the Three Realms.

If she knew, then seeing his various abilities, she probably wouldn't be so shocked, right?

Qin Keqing thought to herself.

At this moment, she felt a sense of pride in her heart.

Her husband was too outstanding, which was why the Eldest Princess was so shocked.

She couldn't help but wonder, if one day in the future, the Eldest Princess knew that Yuan Chu was the Divine Sovereign of the Three Realms, what would her shocked expression be like, what would her reaction be?

Thinking of this, Qin Keqing inexplicably looked forward to it, anticipating the scene when the Eldest Princess would learn the Divine Sovereign's identity.

… …

At the same time, inside the Governor's mansion, within a dim underground secret room, a black shadow appeared.

The fake Governor was currently in this secret room, and the moment he saw the black shadow, he respectfully bowed.

"My lord, that Yuan Chu is extremely arrogant. As soon as he arrived, he killed our Commandant."

"Now, they are staying at the official post house, and it seems they are unwilling to leave."

"The excuses I made to them before seemed logically flawless, but they probably don't completely believe them."

"I don't know what they will do next."

"Our men are watching the official post house, but we haven't discovered anything yet."

"After they went inside, they haven't come out of their rooms."

"The orders from above say that we must bury them in the Eastern Frontier, but with our strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do."

"Yuan Chu and the Anping Princess are easy to deal with, as their realms are low, and it's simple to use force against them."

"But the Eldest Princess is different. She used to be the Master of the Imperial God Immortal Mansion, with a profound realm. Back then, she was at the peak of the Chaos realm, and now she's probably already in the Hongmeng realm."

"Even if Marquis Champion personally takes action, he wouldn't be her opponent. Even if we join forces with the strongmen in the army to besiege her, we can't guarantee that we can keep her here."

"For this matter, we still need your help, my lord."

"Don't worry, they won't leave the Eastern Frontier alive."

"They came here to investigate the blood sacrifice in the Eastern Frontier, probably because they received other news."

"This news may have been given to them by the Immortal Treasure Pavilion."

"That's why they don't believe your Ministry of War Minister."

"What? It even involves the Immortal Treasure Pavilion?"

The fake Governor was startled and his face turned pale. "How could it be? The Immortal Treasure Pavilion never participates in these matters. How could they give the news to the Eldest Princess?

Could it be that they have some relationship with the Immortal Treasure Pavilion?"

"With their status, how likely do you think it is that they could establish a relationship with the Immortal Treasure Pavilion?"

"It's highly likely that the Immortal Treasure Pavilion suffered a loss when they investigated this matter some time ago, so they casually leaked the news to Liang Wan'er."

"Let them investigate their own matters. You don't need to stop them."

"However, don't let them find the real officials of the Eastern Frontier."

"As for the matter of killing them, we have our own arrangements."

"Now, we have already prepared a killing trap, waiting for them to jump in."

"Tell Marquis Champion Chi Ren that the plan will proceed as usual, and there should be no concerns."

"Yes."

The fake Governor nodded.

The black shadow disappeared in front of him, and the secret room became extremely quiet.

"Eldest Princess, Yuan Chu, Anping Princess, now that you've come, don't even think about going back…"

The fake Governor muttered to himself, his eyes becoming extremely sinister, and a hint of ruthlessness appeared on the corner of his mouth.
