"Stop! Who goes there!"
At that moment, a patrolling Nanhua City Warrior suddenly approached and immediately noticed him standing prominently on the boulder. He asked warily.
"Don't be alarmed, I'm also a warrior from Nanhua City," he quickly explained. If he had gone through so much trouble to return with intelligence only to be caught by his own people, it would have been quite the joke.
"Oh? Is that so?" The warrior stepped closer and finally got a good look at his attire—though somewhat tattered. "So it turns out you're one of us. Brother, why are you just now coming back from outside the city so early in the morning? Were you on a secret mission?" As he spoke, the warrior cast an envious glance at him.
Such mysterious missions usually carried significant risks, but if one could successfully complete them and return alive, the rewards would be substantial!
"Heh, not really. I just happened to discover some situations at Southwest Peak. Besides the Demon Clan, there are actually other enemies present. I need to hurry and inform the Lord of the City so she can be on guard."
"What!" The warrior's expression turned to one of shock.
"Sigh, we saw all this with our own eyes. This battle is going to be even harder," he understood the warrior's feelings and comfortingly patted his shoulder, looking heavily towards Nanhua City.
He wondered if this news would make the already somewhat panicked Nanhua City even more passive.
"Then you should quickly send this message back to the city. It's better for the Lord of the City to know sooner!"
"Yeah, then let's not chat any longer. Until we meet again." He nodded and was about to leap towards Nanhua City when suddenly a sharp pain struck from behind, accompanied by a powerful Primordial Power that nearly crushed his internal organs!
"You!" He fell to the ground in disbelief, staring at the Nanhua City Warrior who had just been chatting with him. "Who are you really?"
"Heh heh, sorry about that. You'll have to figure it out after you become a Yin Ghost," the warrior revealed a sinister smile. "Law!"
The world changed abruptly as this Nanhua City warrior revealed his true identity—he was Su Hao, who had allied with Twin Sword Sect during the Fire Village incident and ultimately betrayed them to kill the Twin Sword Sect Master in an attempt to seize the Demon Skull!
Under his Law, that warrior was already severely injured and weak; now he had no power to resist as Su Hao's Spirit invaded his mind to extract the information he desired!
"Su Hao, what is so urgent that you had to summon me? Aren't you afraid of being seen by the patrolling Nanhua City Warriors?" After a while, a figure landed beside Su Hao, and it was Ying De Cai.
"If it weren't for something important, how could I have brought you here to negotiate on behalf of the boss in Nanhua City?"
"Then just say it, don't waste my time." Although they served the same organization, Ying De Cai and Su Hao were both from Nanhua City and responsible for this operation, so their relationship was not particularly good.
"Our plan is about to be exposed!" Su Hao pointed coldly at the ground.
"Who is this person?" Ying De Cai had already noticed the corpse and asked curiously.
"He is one of Wang Long's subordinates. They have already discovered our outer warriors and overheard our subordinates' conversation. They know we intend to take advantage of this Demon Clan attack on Nanhua City to benefit ourselves. If this news reaches Lu Feng, we will be in a passive position!"
"Fortunately, you managed to stop this person; that's a stroke of luck amidst misfortune," Ying De Cai said, feeling a bit startled, then sighed in relief.
"That's useless. They didn't just send one person back." Su Hao's eyes revealed killing intent. "This time they sent multiple people back. To avoid unexpected events, they split into several routes. Although I killed him, the others have probably already returned to Nanhua City!"
"How could this happen?" Ying De Cai could no longer remain calm. "Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and think of a way!"
"I have other matters to attend to. I'll leave Nanhua City in your hands for now. I don't know if our people have realized they are being targeted by Wang Long and others; I must warn them first."
"Alright then, safe travels!" At this moment, Ying De Cai couldn't care less about the issues between him and Su Hao and quickly clasped his fist before heading swiftly towards Nanhua City.
Su Hao pointed with his right hand and directly turned the warrior's corpse to ashes. In the next moment, he vanished into thin air.
Since Lu Feng personally summoned all the leaders in the city for task assignments last time, a room was specifically set aside for collecting, summarizing, and organizing intelligence. At this moment, it was one of the busiest places in all of Nanhua City.
A messenger hurriedly carried a stack of intelligence toward the hall when suddenly someone called out to him.
"Lord Wei, may I ask what the matter is? I am in a hurry to deliver intelligence for processing." He hadn't intended to engage with this person, but upon turning around, he realized it was Lord Wei, and despite his urgency, he had no choice but to wait.
"Yes, I know. However, I noticed you were in such a rush that you seemed to have dropped a piece of intelligence back there at the corner. You should hurry and pick it up," Wei Du said, adopting a lecturing tone while pointing into the distance.
"Huh?" The Nanhua Warrior was taken aback, not expecting to make a mistake while being so busy. Fortunately, Lord Wei had seen it and reminded him; otherwise, it would have been a significant problem. "Thank you, Lord Wei. Please hold onto this intelligence for me; I'll be right back."
"Sigh! You!" Wei Du took the intelligence from him with an impatient expression. "If it weren't for the current situation, I would personally punish you. Now go quickly."
Watching the Nanhua Warrior leave, Wei Du's eyes flashed with a cold glint as he swiftly flipped through the pieces of intelligence until he finally found what he was looking for. He pulled it out and concealed it in his clothing.
"My lord, thank you so much; I've found this piece."
As he watched the warrior express immense gratitude while heading toward the hall, Wei Du revealed a faint smirk, which he quickly masked.
Although he had received a tip-off from Ying De Cai that allowed him to intercept this piece of intelligence, it was also because Zhao Zheng and others were too low in rank to report directly to Lu Feng, the City Lord. However, those few who were aware of the situation were still alive! This remained a hidden danger. Unfortunately, given the current situation in Nanhua City, he couldn't take action against them; otherwise, it would undoubtedly cause even greater turmoil.
For now, he could only pray for Great Divine Power's blessing to buy them a few days' time. Once the Demon Clan began their siege, Lu Feng would have neither time nor energy to pay attention to matters unrelated to war!
