Chapter 472: The Empress of Destiny

~12 min read 2,309 words

The body of the Emerald Bamboo Tower was built of bamboo.

There were four bamboo pillars supporting the bamboo tower, each so thick that six adults holding hands could not encircle them.

The bamboo scaffolding was staggered and crisscrossed, forming stairs that were built around the exterior of the bamboo building, resembling a dancing green dragon, reaching from the first floor straight to the top of the third floor, winding and spiraling with vivid charm.

Unlike Ning Zhuo followed the bamboo stairs, led by the shop waiter, straight to the third floor.

This place had already been booked by Seeing Shuang Jing.

"General Shuang." Unlike Ning Zhuo saluted.

He was invited by Seeing Shuang Jing to drink morning tea this time.

He was dressed in yellow-white robes, with long, pointed ears and golden fluff, and a fox tail dragging behind his robes.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was silent.

"Didn't expect it to be a young man."

"Unlike Ning Zhuo?" The demon cultivator elder shook his head, "He is not important. I came here this time for another matter."

"Planning for the country, it is only right to ask Mu Lan to abdicate and yield to the virtuous."

Unlike Ning Zhuo understood that this was caused by the Red Flower Camp not receiving the latest batch of rations.

Unlike Ning Zhuo shook his head, stared at Seeing Shuang Jing, and slowly stood up.

The demon cultivator elder did not leave, but kept watching Liu Er leave his line of sight. He whispered in his heart: "Liu Er, that Mu Lan is the empress of your destiny."

Wherever he passed, he was like an invisible person, and the people around him were completely unaware, and even the city gate formation did not react.

Unfortunately, the second beating had the opposite effect.

"Hehe, so be it."

Suddenly hearing the demon cultivator elder's message, he was both surprised and happy. He hurriedly followed the instructions, concealed his form, quietly left the camp, and met the demon cultivator elder in a mountain forest.

However, after Mu Lan broke into the granary, she found that the granary was empty.

The demon cultivator elder nodded slightly: "You possess the royal mandate; as soon as you leave the mountain, fierce generals will return to you. Now it seems that Guan Hong and Zhang Hei are the left and right arms of your destiny."

The military grain warehouse manager ran out in a hurry: "General Mu, calm down, calm down!"

Bang! Mu Lan was furious. Zhao Xi had been prepared for a long time, always using procedures and regulations to block her, and she struck out in anger, sending Zhao Xi flying with one palm.

"The path is different, we do not conspire. Please forgive the junior for having no luck to serve as your retainer, Lord; Unlike Ning Zhuo says goodbye!"

Seeing Shuang Jing showed an indignant expression: "The old monster Shi Zhong's methods are remarkable; his Earth-Walking Art has no signs of evasion, and it is fast and hidden. But fortunately, this time the loss of the grain transport team was not great."

Seeing Shuang Jing smiled without speaking.

Mu Lan and Zhao Xi argued loudly.

"General Mu, please stay..." The guarding cultivator hadn't finished speaking when he was sent flying by Mu Lan with a wave of her hand.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was slightly stunned, and immediately heard the noisy sound.

"The old monster Shi Zhong attacked the grain transport team? After the ambush battle, our side must have sent strong men to search everywhere. He is so bold and hasn't left yet?!" Unlike Ning Zhuo asked Seeing Shuang Jing.

The soldiers behind Mu Lan saw the miserable state of the Army Supervisor and felt very relieved in their hearts, following Mu Lan into the granary one after another.

Morning tea and pastries were respectfully served by the waiter.

Seeing Shuang Jing sighed when he said this: "Our Liangzhu Kingdom is a small country, so every bit of national power must be cherished." "The Upper General's Mansion has occupied too much national power but contributed very little."

Unlike Ning Zhuo sneered in his heart.

Bang! The gate was kicked open by her directly.

"And you slandered me, saying I made things difficult for you!"

He was indeed planning to plot against Mu Lan, but this was not his handiwork! "In order to plot for the position of the Upper General's Mansion, these high-ranking officials of the Liangzhu Kingdom actually ambushed their own grain transport team."

"The so-called soft and hard application is just like this. Hehe."

The demon cultivator elder could not tell Liu Er the content of the prophecy directly.

"Teacher, why are you here?" Liu Er bowed.

Seeing Shuang Jing invited Unlike Ning Zhuo to the Little Bird Tower earlier, wanting to hire him as a retainer, but Unlike Ning Zhuo declined, saying he would consider it.

"Afterward, the military supplies were blocked once for the Red Flower Camp. I still used precious materials to settle it."

After identifying for a while, the demon cultivator elder nodded with satisfaction: "Qi luck is growing, to this extent, the timing has come, it has finally come."

"Hmm... Unlike Ning Zhuo is only sixteen years old, full of hot blood, which is reasonable. Perhaps the Ning family allowed him to travel, just to educate this child, so that he knows the world and human hearts?"

"Seeing Shuang Jing invited me to a banquet this time, letting me witness Mu Lan's current situation; is he trying to beat me with this?"

Although Unlike Ning Zhuo only had a few encounters with Zhao Xi, he had collected information and understood that although Zhao Xi was stingy and greedy, he had talent and knew the big picture, otherwise he would not have been repeatedly trusted by the Shuang royal family and sent out.

"The hero is late in his years, that's how it is."

Seeing Shuang Jing was not like Liu Er. For Unlike Ning Zhuo, he was not a must, but the icing on the cake.

Her expression changed slightly, and she felt something was wrong.

Unlike Ning Zhuo looked solemn, full of integrity: "Your desire to 'abdicate and yield to the virtuous' is not something I can conspire in. A loyal subject should only be loyal to his sovereign and assist in his governance; how can one decide state affairs on one's own?"

The soldiers behind her didn't expect this, and one by one, their expressions became confused.

Liu Er was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses: "Teacher, have you prophesied for me? What else is there? Will Military Advisor Ning leave me?"

"Like a Perching Branch Bird, as long as you recognize a good tree, you can have great achievements. Like a small tree like the Three Generals Camp, or a sick tree like the Red Flower Camp, if it delays your achievements, Military Advisor Ning, that would be too regrettable."

Seeing Shuang Jing was interested in Unlike Ning Zhuo mainly because of Unlike Ning Zhuo's prophecy poem.

Zhao Xi scrambled up, blocked the doorway, and shouted sternly: "Mu Lan! You are arrogant and domineering, daring to act recklessly; not only did you beat a superior officer, but you also broke into the granary."

"But the monarch is kind and cannot bear to take action. As ministers, we eat the monarch's salary and do the monarch's work, so we should naturally share the monarch's worries."

Unlike Ning Zhuo also used his divine sense, like Seeing Shuang Jing, to investigate the development of the matter.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was silent.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was surprised: "What happened? Why is General Mu Lan so angry?"

Seeing Shuang Jing invited him again another day, and his intention was quite obvious.

The demon cultivator elder stroked his beard and smiled: "Little Six, you are determined to rebuild my Blood Slaughter Immortal Kingdom; do you have any progress now?"

"The world today is already the world of the human race."

"This is the Yin-Yang Qi Pot, a heavy treasure of the imperial dynasty, I give it to you."

Seeing Shuang Jing was stunned in place, watching Unlike Ning Zhuo walk onto the street and disappear into the crowd without looking back, and then he chuckled.

"I hope this time, General Mu Lan can be sensible and retreat in time."

"The Upper General's Mansion, Mu Lan, will all be mine!"

"The only descendant, Mu Lan, is indeed ambitious but lacks talent; with only Golden Core cultivation, how can she support the Upper General's Mansion?"

"This batch of rations, my Red Flower Camp is determined to collect!"

"What does the Military Advisor think?"

"In my opinion, young talents like Military Advisor Ning are the future and the hope."

A team of cultivators rode fine horses, rushed through the bustling streets, and reached the military grain warehouse opposite the Emerald Bamboo Tower.

A demon cultivator elder stopped on a mountain peak, looking out at Canglin Xiancheng.

He saw Mu Lan and others who failed to collect rations in the city and left the city, calculated for a while, and nodded with satisfaction again: "Qi luck is declining, disaster is imminent. Good, good, good!"

"You beat me, showing no regard for me, an Army Supervisor and envoy of the Royal Capital. What do you want to do? Are you trying to rebel?!"

"But the monarch is kind and cannot bear to take action. As ministers, we eat the monarch's salary and do the monarch's work, so we should naturally share the monarch's worries."

Unlike Ning Zhuo also used his divine sense, like Seeing Shuang Jing, to investigate the development of the matter.

He put away the treasure pot and quietly returned to the camp.
