Shen Feng looked solemn: "The other party is obviously well prepared. They are not weak and very cunning. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to catch them out."
Mo Qi stretched out his hand and clicked on the map: "The locations are scattered and the targets are random. It is really difficult to find out. What is the purpose of these people? It cannot be that they can make such a big move under our noses.
To vent my anger."
Shen Feng's eyes fell on the map, and his brows furrowed: "Besides, it is still impossible to avoid all troubles by relying on the city defense army alone. This time I am afraid that we will have to invite all the major families to take action together, so that the matter can be resolved as soon as possible."
"I know, but you and I don't have this authority, so we can only wait for Emperor Zun."
The only person from many aristocratic families who obeyed orders was Emperor Shitian, which is why Shen Feng quickly sent out a message asking for help, asking him to come back.
Shen Feng nodded and looked out the window.
"In the end...who is targeting Lan Ling?"
…
The sky is getting darker, there is no moon tonight, and there are only a few scattered stars hanging on the black night.
The huge Lanling City was filled with a solemn and tense atmosphere.
Suddenly, the void fluctuated, creating ripples in circles.
Mo Qi and Shen Feng felt something and immediately looked up.
A tall and straight figure walked out of it, it was Emperor Shitian!
Both of them were overjoyed: "Emperor!"
Emperor Shitian raised his hand to indicate to the two of them that there was no need to be polite.
"What happened?"
When he came back just now, he had already noticed that something was very wrong in the entire Lanling City.
The city guards have stepped up patrols and protection, and the streets are very deserted. There is obviously a problem.
Mo Qi immediately described in detail what had happened in the past few days. As Emperor Shitian listened, his eyebrows gradually became a bit frosty.
"...The current situation is like this. We are still investigating, but we haven't found any useful information yet."
Mo Qi said, bowing his head in shame,
"This subordinate is incompetent, so I ask the Emperor to punish me!"
He is the commander of the city defense army, and he is responsible for security issues in the city. Now that such a big thing has happened, he will naturally be held responsible.
Emperor Shitian shook his head: "It's easy to dodge an open spear and hard to guard against a hidden arrow. The opponent is prepared, so you don't have to blame yourself too much."
Shen Feng suggested: "Emperor, those people are so elusive and cunning that it may be difficult to deal with them just by relying on the city guards. Do you think we should mobilize the power of the major families for joint defense?"
Emperor Shitian did not answer his question immediately, but asked: "What is their attitude towards this matter?"
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment and said: "My subordinates have tested the intentions of several family heads before, and they all hate this matter deeply. They are just waiting for your order to come forward immediately."
Emperor Shitian's eyes were slightly lowered, his phoenix eyes were deep, and his slender white fingers tapped lightly on the table.
"Yeah."
Although he was asking a question, his voice was clear and calm, with a certain unspeakable meaning.
Chen Feng suddenly realized something and looked shocked: "You mean... someone in the family is involved in this matter?"
Emperor Shitian raised his eyes, his thin lips slightly hooked, but there was no hint of smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
"To be so familiar with Lanling City and to be able to infiltrate the city quietly is quite a skill. Or... maybe those people are already in the city, I can't tell."
Shen Feng and Mo Qi looked at each other, unable to conceal their shock.
They had imagined many possibilities before, but not this one.
"Who is so brave? Is it crazy to betray Lan Ling!?"
