All they are... those who can grant life if they wish or death if they so choose. The big shots...
But what he's after now is no longer these. He's after a higher position, even greater strength!
Supre power! The secrets of the world! And... the Evil God sisters...
And all this requires him to achieve great results in the "Boundless Heart Sea Grand Expansion Project"!
...
anwhile.
Just as Qiu Tu summoned Larilo, who was trapped in the "Soul Shackles," and began to tentatively talk about Zhao Ji,
in Dongye State, Eastern City, Dongye State Council Building, the Speaker's office.
Huang Shangzong, who had just been appointed as the Speaker today, sat on a spacious chair, his tiger-like eyes bulging with boiling rage!
He was very tall, probably at least one ter ninety-five; his face was broad and resolute, with two dense brows lying across his forehead, giving him a look of both ferocity and profundity.
Coupled with his muscular build, at just one glance, he seed like a towering mountain, exuding an air of immovable stability.
This was Huang Shangzong, the least "Academic Faction"-like mber of the Academic Faction's upper echelons.
At this mont, the highest-ranking official of Dongye State was like a volcano on the verge of eruption, his eyes spitting fire at the man standing before him!
He said loudly, "I have long told you to keep your cool! Keep your cool!"
"Now, I have just rged the Sixteen Cities of Dongye State! The whole Sanctuary, the entire Dongye State, is watching !"
"Yet, the mont I take office, you present with such a huge problem!"
"Do you think I'm too glorious today, is that it?"
Hearing Huang Shangzong's words, the man bowed his head guiltily and apologized, "Speaker, it's my fault for not keeping a tight leash on Head He."
"When he told about it, I thought about investigating in advance as long as no actions were taken, there shouldn't be any issue."
"But who would have known, after Head He found so clues, he underestimated the enemy and rushed in, directly into the enemy's trap."
After making that "full of hot air and shirking responsibility" statent, the man raised his head and spoke softly,
"However, Speaker. Although Head He fell into Qiu Tu's trap, it… also precisely proves that Counselor Wu's death was indeed his doing."
"Otherwise, Qiu Tu wouldn't have set such a big trap for Head He."
After listening to the man's words, Huang Shangzong gave him a cold glance and said, "Even if Qiu Tu hadn't done this, do you think I would have doubted the United Front?"
"Wu Zhi's death, Qiu Tu is 100% implicated!"
"It's just that I originally intended to get the cities of Dongye State in order first, then slowly send people to investigate."
"Now, you've disrupted all the rhythms!"
"And today, the Supervisory Bureau has already conducted one search and left with tails between their legs. The face of the Supervisory Bureau has been lost, and I'm shad as well!"
"If nothing cos out of the next investigation, what will the Supervisory Bureau amount to in Dongye State? What will I amount to? Glass?"
As he spoke, Huang Shangzong pointed to his temple with his thick finger, his voice filled with frustration, "Do you understand what prestige ans, what 'your word is your bond' ans?"
"Do you want to be a Speaker whose orders can't leave this building?!"
Huang Shangzong's chest heaved violently in anger, and then he said gravely, "So! Set aside the matter of Wu Zhi and the business with Qiu Tu for now."
"Dongye State has just been established; what we need to do is not fight, but develop!"
His gaze was resolute and profound, "Our imdiate priority is to develop Dongye State, and explore the region corresponding to the Boundless Heart Sea in Xinjie City!"
"Personal vendettas like those with Qiu Tu are secondary. Put them aside for now."
As he spoke, it was as if he rembered sothing, and he said, "Right, I recall seeing a report from the Security Bureau a few days ago, didn't it say that Xinjie City's Security Departnt had already taken control of the Evil God Larilo?"
"You go make a phone call and ask for the specific details."
