Ye Luo had slain not just the Corpse King but also their beliefs!
However, Ye Luo certainly wasn’t going to spare him just because he had suddenly gone mad!
With a flicker of his figure, Ye Luo had already made his move.
The kill was no surprise; those disciples of the Corpse King Palace who had already lost their courage, combined with the great loss of True Qi, were simply unable to stop Ye Luo.
Monts later, they were all slaughtered by Ye Luo without exception!
Outside the Yongping Warehouse, there were still so disciples of the Corpse King Palace, but their strength wasn’t quite up to par with those who had attacked earlier. Therefore, seeing that even the Corpse King couldn’t contend with Ye Luo, these people decisively chose to retreat!
Ye Luo did not pursue them but instead went to Mingyue and others’ side.
Mingyue’s Dantian had been destroyed; this was what Ye Luo was most worried about at the mont.
"How are you all feeling?"
Ye Luo asked the others.
"Team leader, rest assured, we’re not in much trouble!"
A mber of the Special Security Bureau respectfully said to Ye Luo, who would only truly understand Ye Luo’s might after witnessing his combat prowess; it was even more daunting than the legends, enough to strike fear into people’s hearts!
Ye Luo nodded but still checked on each one of them in turn.
Without exception, they had all been poisoned with a special toxin from the Corpse King Palace; their Dantians had been destroyed, but their lives were not in grave danger.
To eliminate the toxin within their bodies was not sothing that could be accomplished in a short period of ti.
This ti, Ye Luo felt sowhat troubled, especially since this was by no ans an ideal place to heal and save people.
Ye Luo went to Mingyue’s side and, looking at her, felt an inexplicable anger in his heart.
At first, Ye Luo hadn’t given much thought to this operation.
But now, after everything had ended, Ye Luo realized that this attack was riddled with flaws.
First, regarding Mingyue and the others, it was normal for them to co to support Zhamu City when they received news of a situation, and there was nothing wrong with that work arrangent.
But with the Corpse King Palace deploying a large number of zombies to besiege the city, even leading to the evacuation of Zhamu City’s citizens, why had there been no reinforcents by the ti Ye Luo ca from the Dragon Pavilion to support them?
Relying on a regint stationed next to Zhamu City?
A regular infantry regint without heavy weapons like tanks and artillery, and just a few dozen of them, Mingyue and her group to hold Zhamu City?
So what were the higher-ups thinking?
Being a border area ant that other reinforcents could definitely be called upon within two hours.
So why were there no reinforcents?
Even the Special Security Bureau hadn’t sent support!
What was the root cause of it all?
Now that the battle had ended, Ye Luo finally had ti for careful thought, and this consideration filled him with rage!
The regint under Colonel Li was actually just a border guard, and they lacked any heavy weaponry. Relying on them to withstand the elite zombies of the Corpse King Palace was an impossibility from the start.
The more he thought about it, the more Ye Luo felt that this incident wasn’t so simple.
Behind it all was a hidden secret, one that would undoubtedly involve many people!
Considering the Hall Master of the Dragon Pavilion’s Imperial Dragon Hall and several Elders were controlled by the Corpse King Palace, Ye Luo couldn’t help but suspect—could it be that the higher-ups in the secular world were also controlled by the Corpse King Palace!
One must know, compared to the Dragon Pavilion, controlling these people of the secular world would be much simpler!
Ye Luo still rembered when he first set off, he had two fighter jets escorting him along the way. However, halfway there, the jets were called back directly.
Together with the battle situation in Zhamu City, all of these things made Ye Luo suspicious.
Of course, Ye Luo wouldn’t directly express these suspicions. After all, he had to thoroughly investigate whatever covert chess pieces the Corpse King Palace had in place, and any action before gaining clarity would only be tipping off the adversary!
...
"Let’s go, let’s head back first."
Ye Luo put away his suspicions, picked up Mingyue, and then spoke to the people from the special security agency.
A group of people helped each other and headed straight outside. Fortunately, as soon as Colonel Li saw the zombies retreating, he had sent soone to rescue them, so once downstairs, Ye Luo and the others were taken away by soldiers.
Looking at the devastated Zhamu City, Ye Luo felt rather unsettled.
Ordinary citizens, soldiers, or zombies haphazardly lying around the roads, the once quiet and peaceful town had lost all of its forr tranquility!
The stench of blood was extraordinarily pungent, and soldiers were searching everywhere for survivors, although the chances were very slim.
Ye Luo got out of the car and was about to take Mingyue to a temporary dical point to search for a set of Silver Needles to expel the poison from her body.
But at this mont, a ssenger ran quickly toward Ye Luo.
"Report, General, you have an urgent phone call."
"My phone?"
Ye Luo was slightly stunned and patted his pocket. The phone was there, so why would soone call Colonel Li’s place instead?
However, without hesitation, after arranging for Mingyue and the others to go to the dical point first, Ye Luo followed the ssenger.
At this mont, Colonel Li was already standing at the doorway. When he saw Ye Luo, his expression was a bit odd.
"General, please go answer the phone. I have already cleared the surroundings, and I will personally guard the door."
Ye Luo’s brow furrowed slightly. It seed that this call was significantly more important than he had anticipated, evident from Colonel Li’s response.
Soon, Ye Luo entered the conference room, where there was only one encrypted phone in the middle.
Picking up the phone, Ye Luo asked directly, "This is Ye Luo, who are you, and what do you want with ?"
"Ye Luo, it’s ."
An elderly voice ca through, and Ye Luo was slightly taken aback, but he had already recognized that the caller was none other than Elder Shi!
Why would Elder Shi contact him at this ti, and in such a manner?
"Elder Shi, what’s the matter?"
"That’s enough, Ye Luo. You don’t need to say anything now, just listen carefully to what I have to say."
"Ye Luo, there is a force targeting you, and it is enormously powerful, so much so that even with all our efforts, we can’t find any traces of it. This ti, everything, including Mingyue going to Zhamu City, as well as the sudden attack by the Corpse King Palace, has been orchestrated by soone. What I can tell you is, don’t easily trust anyone around you. As far as we know, that force has also tampered with the people around you. Be extrely careful!"
Hearing Elder Shi’s words, Ye Luo’s eyebrows tightly furrowed. There were many who wanted him dead, whether it was the Hidden Sect or in the secular world. What Ye Luo didn’t lack was enemies. However, this was the first ti Elder Shi had solemnly conveyed such a warning to Ye Luo.
This ti, the lurking force might not be simple at all.
