Dragon Tamer
Chapter 1156 - Chapter 1156 Chapter 1160 Concerns

Chapter 1156: Chapter 1160 Concerns Chapter 1156: Chapter 1160 Concerns Upon his return to Xuange Country Capital, Zhu Minglang noticed that less than half of the Dark Yin Army had retreated.

Clearly, the shadowy forces loitering in Xuange Country Capital didn’t all belong to the Earthbound Beast and Evil Fallen Buddha.

The war between the God Army and the Underworld was unceasing.

In fact, even before Eternal Darkness had arrived, Li Yunzi had been planning defenses against the dark army, persuading citizens from various cities to relocate to the Holy City within Xuange Country Capital as much as possible.

Xuange Country Capital, surrounded by numerous Holy Cities nestled within the mountains, served as the defensive ridges for the entire capital. Li Yunzi strengthened all the surrounding Holy Cities and welcomed people from all over North Dipper God State, allowing them to unite against the darkness.

Places like Wu Lan Country, which had not heeded Li Yunzi’s advice to band together for warmth, had ultimately been easily obliterated by powerful demons from the Underworld.

The Holy Cities acted as Holy Citadel Mountains, ensuring that the citizens within Xuange Country Capital were not relegated to fodder for Dark Creatures.

Li Yunzi and her royal guard had been battling the Dark Yin Army for a year now, and were by now thoroughly acquainted with the ghostly God Clan of the Underworld. Unlike Wu Lan Country, everything here was prepared; even if foes like the Nether Emperor emerged in the battle, tranquility still prevailed within Xuange Country Capital.

Some taverns in the rosy settlements continued to operate at night. A few drunken men sat drinking in the cold wind, their most frequent topic of conversation being the Xuange God and Martial Saint.

Everyone in Xuange Divine Country now understood one thing: Li Yunzi was the one in power, controlling everything in the God Country. Indeed, in half of the God Country’s territory, there were many statues erected in honor of Li Yunzi, and faith had severely shifted.

After the coming of Eternal Darkness, people continued to flee back to the God Country and Divine City from other places. Only by witnessing the chaos and disorder governed by other God Countries and Lower God Organizations did they realize how orderly and organized Xuange Divine Country and Xuange Country Capital currently were.

“Do you think our God Country might see a usurpation of divine authority?”

“I’m afraid it might come to that. The Xuange God has been missing all this time, and when people needed her most, she was nowhere to be found. Now everyone knows that without Martial Saint, Xuange Divine Country would have been in dire straits, unable to live and work in peace as if nothing had happened.”

“So what should we do when that time comes, whom should we support?”

“Whoever can shelter us, that’s who we support. Is it that hard to choose?”

“Right!”

“Hmph, a dove occupying a magpie’s nest; from the very first day Li Yunzi set foot in Xuange Country Capital, she’s harbored secret ambitions. She’s a woman who will never be satisfied. The Xuange God has already granted her so much, yet she’s insatiable. Now the other three Saints have no say in front of her, and even the Knowledge Saint has become one of her strategists. Since she’s so powerful, why doesn’t she just establish her own country or declare herself a god? What does it count for to steal the prosperity of Xuange Divine Country!” exclaimed a man, unwavering in his faith.

“But before Martial Saint came, our Xuange Divine Country was beaten down by Ming Meng.”

“Is it the same thing? Xuange God is for the entirety of North Dipper God State; she is a Star God.”

“What does the state of North Dipper God State have to do with us? If we can’t even protect our own God Country, our own Divine City, how can we talk about sheltering North Dipper God State?”

The group of drunks argued unrestrainedly, unaware that at that moment, Li Yunzi, dressed in plain clothes and wearing a veil, passed by them. The drunkards sneaked glances at the beauty but failed to recognize her identity.

Zhu Minglang also overheard these men’s conversation and couldn’t help but laugh.

A dove occupying a magpie’s nest?

They probably didn’t know that their Martial Saint was planning an attack on Tian Shu God City.

Currently, there was only one Star God, Hua Chou!

Having dealt with Hua Chou, Li Yunzi had become the ruler of the entire North Dipper God State.

Li Yunzi was now a deity, a ruler who constructed faith and established order as her main purpose. Whether it was the former Wutu, the Supreme Court, or the current Xuange Divine Country, Li Yunzi was doing exceedingly well, especially after witnessing the Wu Lan Country and other territories, after seeing other gods…

“Yuheng Star Palace has already sent us a response; they will support us,” Li Yunzi said to Zhu Minglang.

“That’s good,” Zhu Minglang nodded.

“Some God Guards have already disguised themselves as worshippers and gone to Tian Shu God City. They will eliminate some of the lookouts before we attack,” Li Yunzi continued.

Zhu Minglang just smiled.

This smile made Li Yunzi somewhat puzzled, and she asked Zhu Minglang, “Too hasty?”

Zhu Minglang shook his head and said, “Ever since I met you, you have been like a war-mad goddess. It is clear that you have been battling the Yin Army outside the Divine City in recent days, yet you still plan how to deal with Hua Chou. How do you manage to control so many threads at once?”

“Everyone has their strengths. I have always been worried about certain things that others don’t care about. Worry does not solve problems, so I often take action,” Li Yunzi said.

“Now you mention it, you’ve given me some concerns,” Zhu Minglang said.

“What concerns?” Li Yunzi asked.

“You already have enough to worry about. I’ll go verify it myself. I always feel that there is a hand pushing the North Dipper God State to its current state, and although I’ve captured some important clues, I still can’t sort them out clearly,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Do you think this is not the destiny of the North Dipper God State?” Li Yunzi said.

“Do you remember when I talked to you about the conspiracy within Dragon Gate? We are all like ants in a sandbox, playing a game being fooled by some Dragon Shepherd god,” Zhu Minglang said.

Li Yunzi nodded. When Zhu Minglang mentioned that he had glimpsed a watchful eye in the vast starry river, Li Yunzi felt a chill down her spine too. This could not help but make one speculate whether the world they live in is just a pen or a birdcage built by higher beings.

Moreover, the true face of Ghost Mark Star also seemed to point to this theory!

“Minglang, talk about your concerns…Perhaps, our decision is a bit reckless,” Li Yunzi asked.

Zhu Minglang shook his head and said, “It’s not reckless. This is the only choice. In this respect, you are more decisive and clear-sighted than I am. It’s just that I feel there might be enemies besides Hua Chou, and there is something I still need to clarify.”

“Why don’t you go find Zheng Yu and have him help you get things clear?” Li Yunzi saw that Zhu Minglang was indeed concerned, knowing that if they could not unravel the source of this worry, it might affect their upcoming battle against the gods.

“Where is he?” Zhu Minglang’s eyes lit up.

“You can ask Nie Xiaoxuan; her Sound Transmission Cicada should be able to find him,” Li Yunzi said.

Zheng Yu had been missing for some days.

He was a deity.

But what kind of god he was, Zheng Yu never mentioned.
