373: C373 Heavenly Dragon Empire's Strongest Combat Power

C373 Heavenly Dragon Empire's Strongest Combat Power

"Yes."

Eli was a little disappointed. His Majesty did not give any clear instructions.

However, he was satisfied. At the very least, His Majesty was investigating this matter and not acting like nothing had happened.

To be able to become a duke, no one's position was clean. As long as they started investigating, the rest of the matters would go down the drain.

When Duke William was unlucky, he would be happy. As for the possibility of Watt City becoming the scapegoat, he would be eliminated.

These things were not what he needed to care about.

After His Majesty said this, he shifted his gaze to Zheng Fang once again.

"I am very curious, why would a soldier of Sand Empire let you, the City Lord, leave?"

"This …"

Zheng Fang was speechless. He couldn't possibly say that he fled for his life out of fear.

"Hmph, come and take him away."

His Majesty let out a cold snort. The guards who were already waiting at the door came in and caught Zheng Fang.

Zheng Fang couldn't say anything, so everyone present was clear about that.

"Duke Eli, save me. Your Majesty, it's not like that. Listen to my explanation."

Hearing Zheng Fang's cry for help, Eli pretended not to hear anything as he stood there quietly.

To him, Zheng Fang was just a pawn. Now he was no longer of any use.

There was no need for him to take the risk of offending His Majesty in order to save a life. It would not be worth it at all.

"Take him away."

When Zheng Fang was taken away, Eli knew it was time for him to leave.

"Your Majesty, I'm going back as well."

"Mm, be careful on the way."

After Eli left, His Majesty spoke directly to Eunuch Hong Fu.

"Go, General Ade."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hong Fu returned after a few minutes with two middle-aged men and an old man wearing a Taoist robe.

"Ade greets Your Majesty."

"Bosch greets Your Majesty."

"Liu Hong greets Your Majesty."

"Yes, take a seat."

The leading middle-aged man who was fully dressed in armor was the number one general of Sky Dragon Empire, Ade.

It was said that he had the strength of a Knight at the pinnacle of the Sky Realm, just a step away from entering the Holy-ranked.2

As for the other middle-aged man, he wore a simple robe and was the strongest official in Sky Dragon Empire, equivalent to the position of prime minister. His name was Bosch.

The last black-robed old man, was the one with the strongest Sky Dragon Empire.

I heard it's a strong practitioner from Central Continent, and now it's the Guest Warriors from Sky Dragon Empire, Liu Hong.

The three of them had been waiting in the next room for the king to summon them, otherwise they wouldn't have come so quickly.

"Everyone should know about the Watt City now. Everyone can express their opinions."

Right after His Majesty finished speaking, Ade stood up.

"Your Majesty, I believe that what Duke Eli said should not happen.

Carter City's Master, Fei Er, was one of my soldiers back then. I am very clear of his character, he would never betray the empire and cooperate with the Sand King. "

When His Majesty heard Ade's words, he didn't have much of an expression on his face. Instead, he turned his gaze towards Bosch, the strategist.

"Your Majesty, I also agree with General Ade. Although I don't know the Mayor of Carter, I do know something about the president of the Tianyu Chamber of Commerce, Xu Tianyu."

Bosch's words undoubtedly piqued everyone's curiosity and they all focused their gaze on him.

"It can be said that Tianyu Merchant Guild's rise has been very short. It's just that in half a year, they have become the biggest merchant in our Sky Dragon Empire.

"Then I will ask everyone, when it comes to money, other than His Majesty, I am afraid there is no one else in the entire Empire who is richer than Xu Tianyu."
