Three World Swordsman
033: The Situation of the Wu Empire
Ten years have passed since the destruction of the God Valley Sect due to the assault by the Four Black Stream Sect and the Hell Demon Valley Sect.
The Hell Devil Valley became a respected sect as it was rumored to have destroyed the residence of the Gods Valley sect until its entire building was flattened to the ground.
Shin Mu's name, Shin Lu and the Six Ghosts of the Hell Valley became famous as violent black flow figures and could not be offended.
The warriors in the martial world learned that the reason Shin Mu destroyed the God Valley Sect was because one of his disciples was killed by someone from the God Valley sect.
But not many knew that the building of the God Valley Sect was flattened to the ground due to the anger of Jiao Xin who failed to obtain the Fire Dragon Whip.
After Jiao Xin recovered from her internal injuries, she waited for a few days near the God's Abyss to wait for Guo Jin to return for the Fire Dragon Whip.
But his efforts were in vain. This made his anger even greater. In one day the entire building of the God Valley Sect was destroyed. Hoping for Guo Jin to come out of hiding because of that.
The destruction of the God Valley Sect made Wu's empire lose half its peace.
The White and Neutral Streams that often helped the Wu Empire, were now withdrawing. They did not want to experience the same thing as the God Valley Sect, who had always been persistent in helping the Empire in helping the Wu Empire maintain peace.
As the White and Neutral sects withdrew to the problems in the Wu Empire, now black robbers and warriors were often arbitrary and increasingly rampant.
It was just that in the past few years, the movements of the robbers and the black-flow sect had met resistance from the mysterious group in the Five Great Cities of the Wu Empire.
Although only a dozen people, but they were able to defeat hundreds of robbers and members of the black sect who made chaos in the Five big cities. One of them was the Imperial Capital of Wu.
The dozens of people referred to themselves as the Night Shadow Army, always wearing Black clothes and face masks.
The chaos wrought by the robbers and the black sect certainly riled up Emperor Wu Mao and his ministers.
"Prime Minister Lin. do you have a solution to this problem" Emperor Wu Mao asked Prime Minister Lin Bao. It had been three years since the post of prime minister was held by Lin Bao who was none other than Lin Hua's father and Yao Chan's grandfather.
Lin Bao immediately saluted him, though,
"Your Highness.servant has already gotten a reply letter from several White-flow Sects and Neutral-flow, all of them cannot help as it is focusing on increasing the strength of their Sect."Answer Lin Bao.
Emperor Wu Mao frowned, his face looking even more moody than before.
General Lin Yung, the Wu Empire warlord who was also Big Brother Lin Hua, immediately stood up. After saluting, General Lin Yung immediately delivered his solution.
"Your Majesty, allow me to convey something that might help restore the peace of the empire."
After Emperor Wu Mao nodded, Commander Lin Yung then explained an idea. Lin Yung's idea was to ask Imperial Elite Army Coach General Ma Yun to be sent to meet some white sect.
Lin Yung did not explain the reason why Jendra Ma Yun was chosen by him. While Lin Bao looked at his son with a face filled with questions .
General Ma Yun joined Wu's imperial army eight years ago on the recommendation of Lin Bao, then defense minister.
Commander Lin Yung also explained, The five subordinates of General Ma Yun are the King's Admin. Lin Yung explained that A warrior King was able to face and slaughter a hundred Wu imperial warriors in less than an hour.
All the Ministers were shocked by this information. Even Emperor Wu Mao stood up from his throne.
"Commander Lin Yung.. Are you trying to cheer me up with your story?" Emperor Wu Mao stared intently at Commander Lin Yung.
Commander Lin Yung immediately dropped his knee to the floor.
"Hamba dare not his majesty."
"Then since when did you find out their strength was that high? Explain everything to me!" Emperor Wu Mao was getting curious about Lin Yung's explanation.
Lin Yung looked at her father Lin Bao who also looked to be in a dilemma. Finally Lin Bao stood up from his chair.
"Your Majesty, allow the servant to speak. If Your Majesty pleases, this information will be conveyed in four eyes with Your Majesty"
Emperor Wu Mao nodded, then invited the Father and Son to enter his personal space. While the other ministers were stifled. No one had ever dared to say that to Emperor Wu Mao all this time.
Arriving at Emperor Wu Mao's private room, Lin Yung explained who General Ma Yun and his five subordinates were in detail
After hearing Lin Yung's explanation, Emperor Wu Mao's face turned bright. A speck of bright light could be seen from the problems that were looming over his territory.
The mystery of the success of the Wu imperial army that destroyed one of the black-flow sects that wreaked havoc in the eastern region several years ago, is now answered already.
"Are the six of them also the Night Shadow Troops who have been helping the people and the nobles?" Ask Emperor Wu Mao further.
"That's. if it's.." Lin Yung stuttered confusedly to answer how.
"Hahahaha, you don't have to answer that to commander Lin Yung. I understand it, I thank you both." Emperor Wu Mao cupped his hands together in front of his chest.
Lin Bao and Lin Yung were surprised. It is not proper for an emperor. The two of them immediately knelt down.
"Please Your Majesty don't hesitate to us" Lin Bao's voice trembled. His respect and loyalty deepened to the Emperor for the attitude he had just displayed.
Emperor Wu Mao immediately raised the hands of Lin Bao and Lin Yun to stand up. It was then that Emperor Wu Mao remembered his late father, the previous emperor.
"It is true that the Emperor's father's words about you and your family are Prime Minister Lin. The person he trusts the most and has the highest loyalty is you, for that you are appointed Minister of Defense at the time Ayahanda became emperor." Emperor Wu Mao's voice sounded trembling.
Lin Bao was stifled upon hearing that, a sense of harrumption seething in his heart recalling Emperor Wu Ping, the previous emperor who had died from a long-standing illness.
"Prime Minister Lin how is Princess Lin Hua sa.." Emperor Wu Mao immediately closed his lips when he saw Lin Bao's face bowed miserably. The same thing happened to Lin Yung as well when she recalled her younger sister's current condition.
