longsword and reached out to draw it, but the Guard quickly blocked her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without a weapon, she was relentless, her eyes full of fury as she charged at the Mixed Blood,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m going to strangle you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a moment of desperation, Luo De grabbed both of Xue Rui’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Xue Rui’s body lunged forward, but her head remained in place because of her ears, her claws flailing wildly in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De applied a bit of force, and Xue Rui had to step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snow Rabbit People’s ears are quite sensitive, and Luo De’s grasp brought her back to some sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De asked in a stern voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui wasn’t an impulsive person, Luo De knew very well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, she was cautious most of the time, especially in front of Luo De, she never lost her composure like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There must be a reason for her sudden frenzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui’s face was flushed, her usually fair skin appeared as if burnt by fire, even the fur was reddened with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared wide-eyed and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He says I’m not fit to question him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He says that a Snow Rabbit Person like me is only fit to be a bone in a soup pot, a slice of meat on the grill, like prey or livestock.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui’s fists were clenched tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He said if we don’t release him immediately, their leader will tear us all apart and throw us into a pot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui was trembling all over, her large eyes even welling up with tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De frowned slightly, looking at Xue Rui with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such harsh words are indeed infuriating, but are they enough to make you react like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui took a deep breath,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s how my parents died...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui’s voice was choked with emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De immediately understood Xue Rui’s pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curses may not cause substantive harm, but if they hit the real wounds, the pain will double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De gently patted Xue Rui’s slightly trembling shoulder,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, I’ll leave him to you after the interrogation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since you’re unwilling to talk...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De turned his gaze from the arrogant Mixed Blood to the Guard beside him, his eyes suddenly cold and sharp,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why don’t you help him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just make sure you don’t kill him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De added calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guards responded in unison, a trace of ferocity appearing on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They immediately dragged the Mixed Blood outside and took out the prepared tools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crisp sound of metal clashing echoed in the stone chamber, heralding impending pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Screams soon reverberated through the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the gibberish from the Mixed Blood’s mouth was heard from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain made the voice rise and fall, but some of it could still be heard clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui wanted to translate for Luo De, but he waved her off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arrogance comes at a price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De said calmly, quietly listening to the cries from outside, not in a hurry,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, I’m not cooking him in a soup, just torturing him a bit, let him endure a little longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui nodded slightly, her sorrow easing a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Luo De was cruel, but Xue Rui felt no fear, instead, a bit of gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De leaned back in his chair, quietly listening, as if enjoying a piece of music.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the screams from outside began to weaken, Luo De slowly spoke,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bring him in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui ran out, and soon the Guard brought the heavily breathing Lizardman back to Luo De, and rudely threw him to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you willing to talk now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked down at the Mixed Blood on the ground, his voice calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui translated the words over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Mixed Blood answered with gasps, Xue Rui turned to Luo De and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s a scout from the Bloodscale Tribe, responsible for mapping Black Pine Ridge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui’s voice resumed its calm, \"It seems the Bloodscale Tribe is preparing for the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are they planning to attack?\" Luo De asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui turned to inquire the Mixed Blood again, then answered Luo De: \"He said the Bloodscale Tribe has already defeated five tribes and intends to defeat more in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They plan to conquer this place and become the strongest tribe in the Desert.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t like hearing such meaningless arrogance, cut off one of his fingers as punishment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De ordered with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Desert has far more than five Alien Race Tribes, how long do they plan to conquer this place?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no accurate information here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After torturing him, he still spoke such nonsense, Luo De was displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, based on the Mixed Blood’s words, the leader of the Bloodscale Tribe does seem to know how to prepare in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A scream rang out as the Guard mercilessly severed the Mixed Blood’s little finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood quickly spread across the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De suddenly felt a twinge of regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not out of mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But because the floor was dirtied, which would be difficult to clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t want to hear any more nonsense, or your fingers will be cut off one by one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De asked coldly, \"Are you the only one who came to Black Pine Ridge?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mixed-blood immediately replied in a gibberish manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui translated concisely, \"Five, he said there are five people like this in total.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what’s your plan? When are you planning to attack?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De leaned forward slightly to continue questioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He said he doesn’t know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This should be true. People like them are regarded as the lowest in the tribe, unworthy of knowing the real plans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui explained, \"They can only do some trivial tasks; even if they die, the Lizardmen wouldn’t care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded slightly, contemplating as he looked at the mixed-blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since he’s a reconnaissance scout, where is his map?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards searched the mixed-blood but found nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui translated the question to the mixed-blood, and after hearing the response, Xue Rui frowned tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Rui stammered out, \"The piece of beast hide with the map... is tucked between his buttocks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This answer made others in the room frown as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De waved his hand, signaling the guards to handle it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards abruptly pulled down the mixed-blood’s pants and indeed found a small scroll from his buttocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What an ingenious spot... looks like next time we’ll have to strip them completely during searches.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De hadn’t expected this, pointed at the scroll of beast hide, and instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get a stick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one would retrieve something that had been stuffed into a mixed-blood’s buttocks with their hands directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard quickly ran out and returned with a stick shortly after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De used the stick to unfold the scroll, revealing a drawing of forests, rivers, and valleys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These guys aren’t easy to deal with.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked at the detailed map and couldn’t help but sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every terrain noted on the map was extraordinarily precise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no words, only various symbols, even some hidden caves were recorded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up and ordered loudly, \"Inform Durant, Rein, to hurry up and find the remaining four people for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused for a moment and continued, \"Also inform Baron Blom, this kind of spy scout should also exist in his territory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De mobilized almost all his forces to search for scouts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even some Snow Rabbit People from the Earth Ear Race, who could no longer do heavy work, crawled out of the caves to start searching across the Black Pine Ridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White Wolf Ola was also searching for scouts near the Frost Wolf Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the advantage of the Wolfhoof Tribe became evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They traversed the forest with Desert Wolves, searching through many hidden corners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Desert Wolf’s sense of smell even surpassed that of a hound, able to find prey hidden in the snow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day after the orders were given, Wolfhoof brought back another mixed-blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interrogation of the second mixed-blood also confirmed that what the previous one said was true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Vivian finally returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De had sent Avril and Milly to the Sea Abyss Wizard Tower at the salt mine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril stayed in the Wizard Tower to transcribe and organize those tomes, with Milly accompanying her, learning together by the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian, on the other hand, stayed by Luo De’s side, responsible for his protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivian’s role had shifted to being Luo De’s personal guard, capable of informing him in real-time about the happenings on Avril’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when it came to wizard-related matters, Luo De could ask, and Avril would be able to look up the information to answer directly from the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Lord Baron planning to call Gang Le back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the manor hall, after interrogating the third mixed-blood, Durant inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mixed-blood disclosed even more intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His reports were more numerous than the other two mixed-bloods, noting that the Bloodscale Tribe had over eight hundred people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many members of the Alien Race are physically strong, and besides the old and weak, all are warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a state of full militarization, half of them could be soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even some old Lizardmen would take to the battlefield, and in extreme situations, the entire populace would fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are not to be underestimated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No rush, the Bloodscale Tribe is still attacking other tribes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baron Blom’s territory apprehended three mixed-bloods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baron Blom, having had previous encounters with the Alien Race, understood their habits better, and after receiving news from Luo De, quickly unearthed three scouts from his territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Baron Blom also dispatched spies to Razor Plain, which remained quiet for the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s worth mentioning that Luo De had exchanged carrier pigeons with Baron Blom, allowing for more timely communication between the two sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Recall them when we have news, there’ll be enough time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De pondered as he lowered his head to look at the map on the table, then instructed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deploy two additional squads to Chris.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chris’s current position was at the junction of Ice Blade Valley and Razor Plain—a major road leading into Black Pine Ridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chris found a cave there to settle, with a towering cliff behind it offering a broad view, essentially overlooking Razor Plain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could also be considered an established outpost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Blom was already contacting other lords on the northwest side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lords of the Northern Wasteland needed to form a joint defensive line, and if possible, not just resist, but also crush these Lizardmen in the cradle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the situation like on Gang Le’s side now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eagle Ridge is still in chaos.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant reported, \"Baron Halon really found the former subordinates of Count Hawk, confirming that his father was murdered.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The usurper of Count Hawk’s title has begun to be vilified throughout the territory, with Zane encountering obstacles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let Gang Le speed up, loot the outer villages and withdraw back to the border first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After giving this command, Luo De reminded, \"But don’t forget the most important thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1894,"2026-05-30T15:19:45.195Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","3d9b22d425f7e18a20340b8ae7eb8bd8e0f3b56283206dc3f54bcc68c576d4e3","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-204","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-202",776,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-cover.jpg"]
