Chapter 919: 240. Dahei Jialuo’s Identity Exposed? (7000 words for monthly ticket!)

Fang Ze stood at the gate of the imperial city in Tang State, contemplating the significance of the silk pouch for half an hour.

When he snapped out of it, the sullen Eunuch Gao was nowhere to be seen; it seemed he had gone back to attend to Emperor Li.

Gradually, officials in court attire began to come and go at the imperial city gate. Seeing Fang Ze in his peculiar outfit standing there, they all gave him a curious glance before continuing into the city.

At this moment, Fang Ze ignored their gazes, his face full of determination. He had already guessed Emperor Li’s guidance! Furthermore, as he went over the plan in his mind, he confirmed its feasibility!

If everything followed Emperor Li and Old Mr. Bai’s plan, Fang Ze might truly have a chance to save Congyun City!

The only issue is... it seems like there might not be enough time.

With this thought, Fang Ze couldn’t help but raise his hand to look at his watch: it was already 7 a.m. There were only three hours left until Tuoya State’s massive invasion.

For this plan to succeed, he had to reach Congyun City within three hours!

But now, the entire space of Xida State has been locked down. To reach Congyun City, he only has one option: take the land route!

Crossing three states in three hours is nearly impossible. Therefore, he must use Tang State’s Spatial Teleportation Room!

With this in mind, Fang Ze wasted no more time and turned toward the interior of the imperial city to seek help from Emperor Li.

Yet, it seemed Emperor Li had anticipated his intentions. Fang Ze had barely made it halfway before the Grand Secretary, who had previously received him, greeted him with a smile, "Chairperson Fang is here to use the Spatial Teleportation House? Please, this way."

Leading Fang Ze towards the teleportation house, the Grand Secretary reminded him, "Chairperson Fang, the space of Xida State is completely isolated and inaccessible, with Tuoya State fallen, so if you wish to return to Xida State, you can only go through Yunlan State."

"And once you reach Yunlan State, you must be careful."

"Yunlan State is currently in turmoil. The Zeng Family rebelled with half the state’s strength. Although they eventually retreated to Tuoya State, the Federation hasn’t recaptured all the territory yet."

"Another aristocratic family in Yunlan State, the Sima Family, had some conflict with you recently."

"Although they may not refuse your teleport request, they might set traps for you once you arrive in Yunlan State."

Fang Ze was speechless: .....

Damn, why do I feel like I’m not a good person and have enemies everywhere?

Already in such a critical situation, Fang Ze had no other choice, so he could only smile and say, "Don’t worry. It’s fine. I believe the Sima Family will not interfere with public affairs for personal reasons."

As he spoke, Fang Ze subtly used the [Devil’s Exchange] to send a message to Zhixi, explaining the situation briefly and asking her to prepare for his arrival.

Having done all this, Fang Ze followed the Grand Secretary to the Spatial Teleportation Room, ready to begin his journey home.....

.....

Meanwhile.

In Yunlan State, at the provincial government, within a small estate.

Receiving Fang Ze’s message, Zhixi, who was handling religious matters, was initially stunned, but then filled with joy!

During this time, under Fang Ze’s arrangements, Zhixi had taken refuge in Yunlan State, and life was going fairly well.

With the support of Sima Liu, an important figure of the Sima family, her missionary activities in the major cities of Yunlan State were progressing very smoothly.

Especially after the recent Zeng Family rebellion, the half-state melee, the growth of the Devil Sect’s believers accelerated exponentially.

After all, wartime is when religions grow the fastest.

But with the good news, there was also bad news.

The bad news was that, although the Devil Sect had begun to establish a foundation in Yunlan State, most believers were similar to the Flower God Sect in Emerald City: not very devout, more like joining for fun, requiring further conversion.

In addition to this, Zhixi was disconnected from the upper echelons of the Devil Sect.

Ambitious as she was, she always wanted to report her missionary progress to get some encouragement and support, but she couldn’t reach her superiors, the angel envoys.

This had been troubling her lately.

Then, suddenly, she received a message and command from her supervisor: Fang Ze.

This immediately invigorated her completely!

She felt that her efforts in Yunlan State could finally be put to good use!

Although she didn’t have many confidants at her disposal, assisting Fang Ze in a quick transfer wouldn’t be a problem!

If she could accomplish this task and successfully help Fang Ze quickly transfer to Xida State, she believed she could come back into Fang Ze’s favor and receive support from the Devil Sect!

With this in mind, Zhixi directly dropped everything she was working on and began to fully oversee the task of helping Fang Ze transfer!

So, even before Fang Ze arrived, the massive ecclesiastical machine of the Devil Sect in Yunlan State began to slowly activate....

......

Meanwhile, as Fang Ze was trying to return to Xida State.

In Xida State, at the provincial government’s assembly estate.

He Weidao, Black Shark, Xiong Qi, Tiger King, and several senior officers of the federal defense team were in a meeting room, watching the phantom sand table and engaged in an intense discussion.

Tiger King stood there confidently, pointing at Congyun City on the phantom sand table, and with his commanding voice, said, "Congyun City cannot be conceded. It’s the first line of defense for Xida State. If lost, we would have to retreat at least a hundred miles to rebuild the fortifications."
