Wang Liren, seeing Ye Ling inquire about Yun Dandan’s situation, immediately beckoned to a subordinate from the Dragon Division. The subordinate brought over a laptop.
“Emperor, all the detailed information is in this computer. You can look through it while I give you a brief overview,” Wang Liren said as he operated the computer.
“Mm,” Ye Ling nodded and sat down to examine the files.
Wang Liren continued, “Yun Dandan’s public execution of a Qi family member has had an extremely negative impact on society. Although we are trying our best to cover it up, we are facing resistance from the other three major families. It will be difficult to completely conceal Yun Dandan’s rampage this time. Many forces within the circle are already beginning to question the Dragon Division’s strength.”
Ye Ling, while browsing through photos of Yun Dandan killing people, asked, “Why are the other three major families interfering in this matter?”
Wang Liren explained, “After all, the Qi family is closely related to the Wang, Wei, and Su families through marriage. When you, Emperor, threatened to take action against the Qi family, the other three families, while not daring to resist openly, were all making small moves behind the scenes, attempting to protect some of the Qi family members.”
“Yun Dandan suddenly attacked and killed Qi family members. The other three families, in their efforts to protect the Qi family, also suffered some losses. Now, the Wang, Wei, and Su families all believe Yun Dandan was sent by the Demonic Palace, and they are quite resentful.”
“Since they dare not attack the Demonic Palace, they have come to trouble the Dragon Division, which is close to the Demonic Palace. The Dragon Division has already suffered significant losses, and Elder Liao has only just become the minister. Now, with pressure from the three major families, the burden is immense.”
Ye Ling then asked, “Where is Yun Dandan now?”
Wang Liren replied, “The three major families have hired many specialized individuals to hunt Yun Dandan. According to the latest news, Yun Dandan has fled back to the Yun family, and the specialized individuals from the three major families have surrounded the Yun family and are preparing to storm in.”
Hearing Wang Liren’s words, Ye Ling pondered for a moment and then said, “Although Yun Dandan’s life or death is not important, her sudden mutation is quite noteworthy. I will go take a look after I’ve dealt with Bai Qiao. For now, deploy the Dragon Division’s specialized individuals to the Yun family and prevent the other families’ personnel from rushing in.”
“If the Dragon Division’s forces are insufficient, contact Xiao You and have her mobilize some forces from the Demonic Palace to assist.”
Ye Ling had a premonition that Yun Dandan’s mutation was related to the opening of the creation legacy beneath Wuling Mountain, and she could not die for now.
Moreover, even setting aside the legacy, the capital was the capital of Hua Country, representing its dignity. The three major families driving their specialized individuals to act with impunity in the capital was a provocation to the Dragon Division’s authority.
The Dragon Division was currently on good terms with the Demonic Palace, and the three major families were acting on behalf of the Qi family. This clearly showed that they were using the opportunity to pressure the Dragon Division to test the Demonic Palace’s bottom line.
If Ye Ling did not react to this matter, the three major families would likely become even more audacious in the future.
Wang Liren’s face lit up when he saw Ye Ling intending to intervene. He quickly said, “Thank you, Emperor!”
Ye Ling smiled and asked, “What are you thanking me for?”
Wang Liren, excited, replied, “Your Majesty allowing the Demonic Palace to intervene in this matter is a great help to the Dragon Division!”
After surviving the Shadow Hall castle, Wang Liren had withdrawn from the Demonic Palace to revitalize the Dragon Division and rejoin it to help his mentor, Liao Hong, stabilize the situation.
Liao Hong had just taken office, his foundation within the Dragon Division was unstable, and he was facing pressure from the three major families externally, with overseas forces also watching covetously. It could be said that Liao Hong was facing enemies on all sides.
If Liao Hong could successfully resolve the Yun Dandan incident, he would firmly secure his position as the Minister of the Dragon Division, and his subsequent reforms of the Dragon Division would also be much smoother.
Ye Ling’s willingness to let the Demonic Palace help the Dragon Division resolve this matter meant openly displaying the alliance between the Demonic Palace and the Dragon Division. With this relationship, Liao Hong would surely thrive in Hua Country and help the Dragon Division overcome its difficulties!
Seeing Wang Liren’s excitement, Ye Ling shook his head and smiled. He naturally understood Wang Liren’s intentions, otherwise, he would not have asked Wang Liren to contact Ye You.
After all, the Dragon Division was the official force of Hua Country, representing legitimacy. Its downfall would have a significant impact on Hua Country.
Although Hua Country had the Demonic Palace, the Demonic Palace did not belong to Hua Country; it maintained the balance of specialized individuals worldwide. While the Demonic Palace could favor Hua Country, it could not replace the Dragon Division’s position in Hua Country.
If the Demonic Palace became the official force representing Hua Country, its prestige worldwide would rapidly decline. Then, forces and sects from various countries would no longer obey the Demonic Palace, and the world of specialized individuals would descend into chaos again, which would also be a major problem for the Demonic Palace.
By having the Dragon Division stabilize the domestic situation, overseas powers would recognize the Demonic Palace’s strength more.
After Wang Liren left the villa with a group of Dragon Division specialized individuals, Ye Ling did not idle. He teleported to the vicinity of Bai Qiao’s inner demon.
At this moment, Bai Qiao’s inner demon was rapidly fleeing through a small alley with Bai Qiao on its back. Three black-robed specialized individuals were chasing behind them.
Soon, Bai Qiao’s inner demon turned into a dead end. Seeing the path blocked, it let out a cold snort and stopped.
“Hmph, hmph, where do you think you’re running now?” The three black-robed specialized individuals blocked the exit of the dead end and stared at Bai Qiao’s inner demon, sneering.
Bai Qiao’s inner demon put Bai Qiao down, glanced at the three black-robed specialized individuals opposite, and said coldly, “You really are persistent shadows. It seems I have to deal with you all!”
With that, Bai Qiao’s inner demon’s hands were enveloped in black mist, its pupils turned red, and its entire aura rapidly ascended.
Seeing Bai Qiao’s inner demon’s aura rise, the three black-robed specialized individuals quickly assumed a stance and said, “Be careful! Her methods are extremely strange. Several of our brothers have already fallen victim to her!”
“Understood!”
However, just as the three black-robed specialized individuals were ready to attack Bai Qiao’s inner demon, Ye Ling suddenly appeared behind them.
Ye Ling waved his hand gently, sending the three black-robed specialized individuals flying, crashing them into the wall and knocking them unconscious.
After easily dealing with the three black-robed specialized individuals, Ye Ling asked Bai Qiao’s inner demon, “What’s going on? Why are you running with Bai Qiao? Who are these people chasing you?”
However, Bai Qiao’s inner demon acted as if it didn’t recognize Ye Ling and said defensively, “Here comes another one who wants to steal my treasure. Fine… let me see if you have the ability!”
Hearing Bai Qiao’s inner demon’s words, Ye Ling was taken aback and asked in surprise, “You don’t remember me?”
Bai Qiao’s inner demon sneered, “Why should I know you? Who do you think you are? Fight if you want to fight, don’t waste my time!”
Seeing that Bai Qiao’s inner demon’s expression was not feigned, Ye Ling lowered his eyelids and murmured, “This girl has really lost her memory. What kind of legacy did she receive?”
Just as Ye Ling was feeling puzzled, he suddenly sensed a trace of another creature’s aura within Bai Qiao’s inner demon’s soul. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he coldly shouted, “What is that thing? Get out of her soul now!”
Ye Ling’s aura surged towards Bai Qiao’s inner demon, directly impacting its soul.
Feeling Ye Ling’s terrifying aura, Bai Qiao’s inner demon froze on the spot!
