Chapter 420 News from the capital! Chanting the true name of the general(2/2)
"Hey, if the tiger is locked in a cage, of course those people would dare to show their teeth and claws. Now that they are released, who among them would dare to vent their anger!?" Li Mo sneered.
King Zhennan returned to the southeast. Naturally, some people did not dare to talk nonsense. They were also afraid of pushing too hard. Once the string was broken, the sky would really fall to the southeast.
"Sir, Prince Zhennan is still in custody in the capital..." Chen Wangdu couldn't help but said.
"Is it possible that King Zhennan doesn't even care about his own son?"
Chen Wangdu knew that the only son of the King of Zhennan was going to be imprisoned for three years because of the incident at Nature Valley.
In such a situation, King Zhennan secretly returned to the southeast, which was tantamount to gambling with his son's life.
"It is precisely because Lao Ji is trapped that King Zhennan cannot stay in the capital..." Li Mo said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, Li Mo couldn't help but look at Chen Wangdu: "Old Chen, how can you not see that you are so sophisticated?"
When Chen Wangdu heard this, he just smiled awkwardly. As a subordinate, sometimes you don't need to be particularly smart. Only by being stupid occasionally can you show the wisdom of your superiors and make the other party feel comfortable.
Subordinates who use intelligence in practical matters and don't know how to be clever are the ones who can use it most easily.
"If both father and son are in the capital, then no one will take care of them... Now that King Zhennan has returned to his fiefdom... Lao Ji is considered safe..."
Li Mo withdrew his gaze, his expression darkened, and he couldn't help but rub his temples. At this moment, he finally understood what King Zhennan said to him before leaving.
The world is more complicated than he imagined. Even with the identity and status of King Zhennan, there are always dangers hidden.
"I just don't know what your Majesty is thinking."
Li Mo whispered, he had always been curious about the old emperor who had been in power for more than forty years.
The lord of the world, the direct bloodline of Shenzong, the true master of the Daqian Dynasty... In Li Mo's eyes, he was one of the most mysterious beings in the world.
It's a pity that the Ninth Five Supreme Being is so high up there that even someone like the Hongmen Sect Master, not to mention Li Mo, can't be seen easily.
"Maybe we can see him next time he returns to Beijing." Li Mo thought to himself.
"Sir, there is one more thing."
At this moment, Chen Wangdu's voice brought Li Mo back from his thoughts.
"What's up?"
"Gu Changan has been missing for almost half a month. Logically speaking, he should report it to the state branch..."
"Let's put this matter on hold for now, I know where he went." Li Mo waved his hand.
"But there have been some unusual movements near Qingchan City recently. He is not here. If something goes wrong, it would be detrimental to you if the higher ups investigate."
Chen Wangdu naturally thinks about Li Mo in every aspect. You must know that Li Mo is still carrying the title of "Grand Priest Officer", and he is considered a person waiting for punishment. If something happens to him again while he is in office, and the leader takes the blame
If he is not here yet, he will naturally be implicated.
"Is Qingchan City not peaceful recently? Why didn't I know?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask.
When Chen Wangdu heard this, he smiled awkwardly: "Maybe you have been too busy recently and there are some things you don't know..."
As he spoke, Chen Wangdu lowered his voice and said: "Recently... the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord of Juelong Ridge died..."
"this……"
"It's a strange death... This old demon is also considered the number one figure in Beimang Huangqiu. It is said that he has a name among the demons and ghosts controlled by [Beisha Xuanzhang]..."
Chen Wangdu looked solemn and said: "According to the intelligence, Beimang Mountain seems to have started investigating..."
"The Eight Great Demon Immortals in the World..."
Li Mo's face trembled slightly. What he was most worried about was that he would be targeted by [Beisha Xuanzhang]. If this demon fairy knew that he had come to her realm, he didn't know if he would attack her again.
You know, this time, Boss Bai is not around.
"A character like the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord would not let Beisha Xuanzhang appear in person." Li Mo couldn't help but said.
"Of course it won't... A being like Bei Sha Xuanzhang, who is so aloof, may not know that she has such a number one under her command... but she has many masters under her command..."
"Who's checking?"
"This is still unclear."

Li Mo waved his hand thoughtfully.
Upon seeing this, Chen Wangdu respectfully left the courtyard.
After a while, Li Mo summoned Zhu Ganghe.
Among these demons and ghosts, Zhu Gangxi's [Celestial Canopy God Curse] is the best at transformation, his mystery is extraordinary, and his methods are also first-rate and powerful.
"Xiao Zhu, you have been wandering around Qingchan City recently to see the movements of demons and ghosts. It is best to penetrate into the enemy..." Li Mo warned: "You understand what I mean."
"I understand, master, don't worry, I will do it beautifully."
"Also, please contact the capital city later and ask Mosquito to keep an eye on someone for me."
"Who?" Zhu Gangxi couldn't help but ask.
"Summer cicadas chirp!" Li Mo's eyes almost condensed into a thin line.
This master who returned to the Fairy Market, one of the most important chess pieces in his hand, naturally cannot be let go so easily.
…
Beimang Barren Hills, Nine Burial Mountains.
The ancient tomb is like a monument, standing among the mass graves on the barren hills.
A jackdaw jumped up and landed under a dead tree.
"Old Crow, why are you back? Have you investigated the death of Stinky Centipede?"
At this moment, a scorpion with a demonic blue body and a tail as scarlet as blood emerged from the dark cave.
"Whether or not I have found out clearly, I don't need to explain it to you. I will explain it to the Lord..."
The black jackdaw flapped its wings, exuding a terrifying evil spirit, causing the surrounding void to distort.
"Ahhhh..."
At this moment, a horrifying scream came from the deep cave. The next moment, a disheveled scholar hurriedly escaped as if he had seen a ghost, his trembling face full of fear.
"The Lord is still so kind."
The demon blue scorpion's eyes flashed with cold light, and with a sweep of his tail, the scholar turned into a piece of bloody human skin, splattered on the rock wall, and the frightened expression on his face completely solidified.
"It's no wonder, although the Lord was accepted as a disciple by [Zombie Lord], I heard that he was a human before..." Black Jackdaw said solemnly.
The "Zombie Lord" in his mouth is naturally one of the eight great demon immortals in the world, "Beishi Xuanzong".
"Human? What nonsense are you talking about? The Lord was born like [Zombie Lord]..."
"You dare to say you don't know?" Black Jackdaw sneered: "I heard that the Lord's name when he was still a human was... Jiang Chen!?"
"presumptuous!"
At this moment, the demon blue scorpion roared violently, and the strong evil spirit turned into a scarlet color, covering the deserted tomb.
"Don't speak carelessly, let alone seek death."
The demon blue scorpion's scream instantly made the black jackdaw sober up.
"The Lord has only one name."
"General!"
