C732 Dark clouds of war!
Mu Liansheng's heart sank. He realized that something might have happened.
He immediately ordered his men to bring Muze over.
Plop!
Mu Ze knelt in front of Mu Liansheng in panic, and he practically cried as he reported the news: There was indeed a person called Su Ye under house arrest in Meng River Village. However, just four hours ago, Su Ye was brought away by a group of city guards who called themselves the West Smoke City Lord's summons.
Hearing this, Mu Liansheng was instantly enraged.
Something had happened!
Something big had really happened, and the thing he didn't want to happen the most had still happened.
Mu Liansheng angrily asked: "Then did you ask which direction the person who brought Su Ye went?"
Mu Liansheng's eyes were incomparably gloomy. He looked at Muze as if he was looking at a dead man. He really hated this Muze now. This damned thing only knows how to flatter people. It is completely useless at critical moments.
If not for the fact that Mu Ze lacked the ability to make decisions on the spot, and if Mu Ze didn't think that he couldn't be disturbed while he was on a festive day, how could he have received the news so late? How could he have let that person called Su Ye be taken away right under his nose?
Mu Liansheng could almost foresee how great the wrath of His Majesty would be when such a major mistake was spread to the Great Qing Dynasty.
"No, no. Your subordinate was in a rush and wanted to report back to the mayor first. I forgot to ask him clearly in such a hurry …" Muze's face paled as he spoke with a shaky voice.
"Why don't you just die!"
Mu Liansheng could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He only felt that he would lose his life to this Mu Ze who he had made into his trusted aide.
"Men, come! This City Lord has received secret reports that Mu Ze is a spy sent by the Grand Indian Dynasty to Xiyan City. The evidence is conclusive and he will be executed immediately!"
Mu Liansheng no longer wanted to talk with Mu Ze. He waved his hand and had the left and right city guards drag Mu Ze away. However, it was useless. He was dragged to the side by the city guards, and the knife in his hand descended. This man, who had once made a name for himself in the West Smoke City, was known to everyone as the number one confidant of the city lord.
The execution of Mu Ze was just a venting of his anger. However, it didn't help. He quickly regained his calm as he calculated in his heart.
It was no longer important whether that person called Su Ye had actually transmigrated here from the Gate of Ancient Mystery.
Most importantly, Su Ye had already been faked to be taken away four hours ago. Using a fake name to quietly pick up Su Ye and bring him away, it was obvious that it was done by a spy who was hiding somewhere in the Western Smoke City.
As a result, the other party did not have many people, and their preparations were definitely insufficient. They would not dare to take the main road even if they had to carry a living person along.
Looking at the surroundings, the area to the west was the territory of the fierce beasts and the beasts contained great danger. The enemies would not have enough people to ensure Su Ye's safety, so they would definitely not dare to head west.
It was impossible in the west, but it was also impossible in the east. It was also impossible in the east, and it was also impossible in the territory of the Great Qing Dynasty.
The northern border of the two dynasties, the Grand Indian and the Great Wei dynasties, and the southern dynasties, the Grand Liang, the Great Heng and the Great Xian dynasties. That spy must have come from one of the five empires.
After calculating the time, he realized that he had not arrived even when he was the closest to the Dazzling Spring Mountain, as he was on his way through the mountains with a person in tow.
As such, it was still too late to give chase.
Blocking Su Ye off in time was Mu Liansheng's only chance to escape from his crimes and protect his life.
At this moment, Mu Liansheng immediately divided the city guards into seven routes. Two of them rode on horseback on the main road, while the rest headed towards the north as fast as they could. The other five paths followed the trail in the direction of the five dynasties.
In short, Mu Liansheng clenched his teeth and fought.
Just as Mu Liansheng was about to make his move, the thirteen dynasties of bloody world all convened an emergency assembly in the span of four hours. There was news regarding the house arrest of a Wood Emperor with the name of Su Ye in Meng He Village that caused a huge uproar in the imperial court of the 13 empires.
Among them, the fastest to react was the Great Qing Dynasty. After all, the location of the news was within the borders of the Great Qing Dynasty. No matter how fast the spies from the West Smoke City reacted, no matter how fast the news spread, it still couldn't compare with the spies sent by the Great Qing Dynasty to the West Smoke City.
However, when the troops sent by the Great Qing Dynasty's Emperor arrived at Xiyan City, they found out that Su Ye had been taken away by a group of mysterious people. West Smoke City's City Lord, Mu Liansheng, was too busy enjoying himself and did not know what to do. Now, he personally led the City Guards to chase after them.
When the news was sent back through the messenger eagle to the imperial palace of the Great Qing Empire, Emperor Daqing was so furious that he smashed a dozen or so precious porcelain bottles. His table that was carved to perfection was smashed into pieces, and he roared out several times in anger within the imperial palace, "Mu Liansan, if that Su Ye doesn't get back, we will personally kill you!"
No one could blame Emperor Daqing for being so furious.
After so many years, the Gate of Ancient Mystery was still as lonely as before. It was not easy for someone from the outside world to appear in the Great Qing Dynasty.
As long as Mu Liansheng did not act foolishly, he could silently control Su Ye and send him to the Great Qing Imperial Palace before the news spread throughout the sky. At that time, the Great Qing Dynasty would be able to dig out all the secrets on Su Ye's body and borrow them.
But now, this great opportunity had been ruined by a man who only knew how to flatter a horse. How could he not be angry? How could he not be angry?
A good thing becomes a bad thing.
Great Qing Emperor could no longer trust Mu Liansheng, he immediately sent more people to trigger from different directions, intending to cooperate with Mu Liansheng's city guards to surround and stop him, hoping to keep Su Ye in the Great Qing Dynasty.
Right now, Su Ye's existence was no longer a secret, and it was impossible for him to get rich silently. But no matter what, Emperor Daqing had to keep Su Ye here.
But unfortunately, due to Mu Liansheng's series of second thoughts, the opportunity had already been lost. If he continued to chase after him, it would seem like he wouldn't be able to do so. In addition, the other empires reacted exceptionally quickly and sent out their troops in time.
Near the border of the Great Qing Dynasty, a few imperial troops had unavoidably bumped into each other. Several large empires completely disregarded the threats and warnings issued by the Great Qing Dynasty and forcefully penetrated into the territory of the empire. Inevitably, conflicts broke out.
And so, over the next two months.
However, the Great Qing Dynasty had already clashed with the surrounding big seals, big Wei, big Liang, Da Heng and Da Xian five empires more than ten times. In these dozens of clashes, the total number of troops deployed by the six empires was actually one million and two hundred thousand.
Seven hundred thousand of them were Daqing's troops.
In order to deal with the five empires in five directions at the same time, Daqing's troops were divided into five groups and were forced to run for their lives. It could be said that they had suffered heavy losses.
This was the biggest loss in the recent twenty years of conflict between the Great Qing Dynasty and the surrounding dynasties.
The most terrifying thing was that, other than the six empires, the seven other empires did not sit on the sidelines. They had actually sent various types of elite groups to travel across the territories of the other empires to enter the Great Qing Empire and directly participate in the search for Su Ye.
For a time, the undercurrents surged, and dark clouds gathered around the battlefield.
Some knowledgeable people expressed their deep concern in public places like teahouses and restaurants. They felt that a chaotic battle that affected the entire thirteen dynasties of bloody world would break out at any time in the near future.
As time passed, these worries that were enough to disturb the hearts of the people did not decrease due to the interference and suppression of the Great Qing dynasty's imperial court. On the contrary, they grew more and more.
This worry had even spread from the Great Qing Dynasty to the surrounding kingdoms. The fear of war spread like a plague throughout the bloody world.
The entire bloody world, after being carried away by the mysterious team from Meng River Village for three months, had become incomparably stifling.
It was as if it confirmed the validity of this worry, as if everything else in the world had changed. Four months after Su Ye was mysteriously taken away, a shocking piece of news had finally exploded.
The team that had brought Su Ye away from Meng He Village was actually spies from the Great Seal Dynasty.
After taking Su Ye from Meng He Village, they had actually chosen to take a detour around the Western Wasteland Beast's territory. After paying the price of eight of their scouts' lives, in a month's time, they had successfully avoided the encirclement from all kinds of people, and successfully sent Su Ye to the imperial palace of the Great Indian Empire. They had met with the Emperor of the Great Indian Empire, and the Grand Imprint Emperor had treated him as a teacher and thus been placed under house arrest in the Great Seal Imperial Palace.
When the news came out, it shocked the world.
The entire bloody world was in an uproar, so the day after Emperor Daqing killed the West Smoke City's Master, Mu Liansheng, in a rage, he personally sent an urgent letter to the Grand Imprint Emperor, requesting the Grand Imprint Emperor to send Su Ye back to the Great Qing Dynasty.
Unfortunately, he was rejected by the Grand Imprint Emperor and he denied that Su Ye was under house arrest.
Emperor Daqing was infuriated.
On the day that they received the Grand Imprint Emperor's reply, they sent letters to the eleven empires, including Dazhang, Dazhi, and Dazheng. It was impossible for outsiders to find out what was written in the letters.
He only knew that half a month after Emperor Daqing received the reply from the Grand Imprint Emperor, Emperor Daqing had personally led two million soldiers towards the direction of the Grand Imprint. At the same time, the seven empires had also dispatched a million strong army.
A world shocking battle had begun!
