Capítulo 1773: Chapter 232: The Eccentric Great General Ma

In the next moment, all the sharp sword qi attacking Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus was shattered by the powerful black lightning, and the surrounding Moonlight cultists suffered heavy casualties; only a few who reacted in time managed to escape.

Due to Lin Yifan holding the broken black jade pendant, the black lightning’s attack was ineffective against him.

Seeing the heavily wounded Moonlight cultists, Princess Fire Lotus felt that Lin Yifan’s move “Triggering Heavenly Might” was indeed cleverly used.

Using cultivation power in the Thunder Zone would trigger lightning strikes, but with the lightning avoidance artifact in hand, this Thunder Zone undoubtedly became a weapon to protect oneself.

In fact, she should have thought of this move earlier, but the urgent situation disturbed her mind, preventing her from focusing.

“You little brat, pretty smart, huh.”

“Hmph, do you think I’m as brainless as you?” Lin Yifan sneered, sarcastic.

“You…”

Princess Fire Lotus was furious, wanting to kick him, but now was not the time to quarrel, so she held back.

There were still some Moonlight cultists uninjured, so staying here was extremely unsafe. Thus, Lin Yifan pulled Princess Fire Lotus along, continuing towards the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen.

With the dangerous Thunder Zone blocking the way, the Moonlight cultists found it difficult to pursue for the moment. However, they could bypass this Thunder Zone and continue the chase, although it would inevitably cost them time.

The power difference between Lin Yifan and them was immense, so this bit of time was nothing, and they set off.

Using all their might to fly, a few minutes later, Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus finally arrived at the city gate of the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen.

At the same time, the surviving Moonlight cultists were also about to arrive.

The situation was urgent, time pressing, and Princess Fire Lotus quickly called out, “Let us in!”

“Who goes there!”

The soldiers on the gate of the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen asked sternly.

Princess Fire Lotus felt that if she didn’t present something credible, the gatekeepers of the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen wouldn’t let them in, so she immediately took out her token, saying, “I am Princess Fire Lotus of the Heavenly Fire Kingdom, with urgent matters to report to the Emperor of the Kingdom of Leizhen.”

Seeing it was an item of the Heavenly Fire Kingdom royal family, the soldiers on the city gate didn’t dare delay and immediately opened the gate, letting Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus inside.

Seeing this, Lin Yifan felt that bringing this spoiled girl along was indeed quite useful.

If he used the broken black jade pendant to persuade the gatekeepers to open the gate, it might take half a day, and by then, he would have been killed by the Moonlight cultists.

With the gate open, Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus quickly entered, seeking safety.

In the next instant, the Moonlight cultists arrived at the scene.

The Moonlight cultists also wanted to rush in, but the gate was closed, and they couldn’t enter.

“Who goes there?”

The soldiers of the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen questioned sternly as they had earlier.

If the previous were the Princess Fire Lotus of the Heavenly Fire Kingdom, then these men in black were certainly evildoers. They wouldn’t show mercy to evildoers.

The Moonlight cultists replied not a word, pulling out swords and flying to the gate, appearing ready to force their way in.

Facing such a situation, the soldiers of the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen had no choice but to activate the defensive array, summoning heavenly lightning to punish these stubborn intruders.

The array was a defensive one, making it difficult for those outside the city to break in.

And summoning lightning required a special weapon they had, which could summon lightning without attack. This was a specially made weapon possessed only by the Kingdom of Leizhen.

After prolonged attacks to no avail, with lightning descending from above, the Moonlight cultists had to retreat quickly.

As the hardest country in the world to invade, the Kingdom of Leizhen was not just boasting; with only this much power, it was clearly insufficient. They needed at least a large number of Profound Immortal Realm masters.

It seemed there was no chance of recovering that broken black jade pendant, and once the Kingdom of Leizhen obtained the treasure, invading them in the future would be even more difficult.

However, they weren’t afraid; after all, the Moonlight Organization was the strongest, and there was nothing they couldn’t acquire.

Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus, having entered the small border city of the Kingdom of Leizhen, narrowly escaped danger and were gasping for air in lingering fear.

It was truly too dangerous just now; if they had been a step slower entering the city, they might have been slain by the Moonlight cultists.

After repelling the enemy, a border soldier walked over, curiously asking, “What urgent matters do you have to report to our Emperor?”

“Take me to your Sir, and I’ll explain to him.” Princess Fire Lotus replied.

The border soldier, with a skeptical attitude, escorted Lin Yifan and Princess Fire Lotus to the Great General Ma’s Mansion.

Seeing two strangers, Great General Ma of the Kingdom of Leizhen was somewhat roguish, shifty-eyed, and asked, “What urgent matters do you need to report?”

“To the General, do you recognize this?”

Princess Fire Lotus did not waste words, taking the broken black jade pendant from Lin Yifan’s hand and presenting it.

Seeing the broken black jade pendant, General Ma, who was leisurely enjoying his tea, was taken aback.

“Cough, cough!”

Coughing twice, clearing the tea from his throat, he stepped forward quickly to Princess Fire Lotus and carefully took the jade pendant to examine closely.

Realizing it was indeed that black jade pendant, he was somewhat excited and incredulous, asking, “This… this… where did you pick this up?”

“We don’t know, but someone entrusted us to deliver it to the Emperor of the Kingdom of Leizhen,” Princess Fire Lotus answered.

“Where is this person now?” General Ma inquired.

“Killed by the Moonlight Organization.”

“Moonlight Organization?”

Upon hearing these four words, General Ma’s face turned cold, clearly holding a grudge against this organization.

However, he immediately relaxed his brows, smiling, “You two risked your lives to escort this item here. You must be exhausted. Why not stay here a few days, and I’ll have people take good care of you?”

“When will you deliver this jade pendant to the Thunder King?” Princess Fire Lotus asked.

They were expecting to gain merit, and now being told to stay in this desolate place for a few days, what did it mean?

“I will handle this personally; there’s no need for Princess Fire Lotus to worry,” General Ma responded.

Princess Fire Lotus and Lin Yifan exchanged a glance, both feeling that this General Ma seemed shady, suspicious, possibly with other motives.

Unable to refuse his hospitality, and without solid evidence of any wrongdoing, they had no choice but to follow General Ma’s instructions and stay here a few days.

Leaving the hall and reaching the guest room, the two secretly gathered to talk.

“Hey! Do you think this General Ma is suspicious?” Princess Fire Lotus asked in a low voice.

“He obviously is.”

“So, what do we do now?”

“First, get to the bottom of things, then make plans,” Lin Yifan replied.
