Chapter 1362: Chapter 1362: Nether Clan’s Sleeper Agent

"It must have been Herman who spread the word about us to Thousand Tents City, this arrangement was specially made by the Regent King to make a stance clear."

Mo Ningchen voiced his thoughts through a telepathic message among the three of them.

"Figured out who we are?"

You Ming asked, puzzled.

"Figuring out our identities isn’t surprising; what’s intriguing is how His Royal Highness the Regent knew we would come to the City of Eternal Winter."

Su Chengyu also spoke up upon hearing this.

With the matter of the national border and the incident in Linbei City, guessing their identities wasn’t odd. What Su Chengyu was concerned about was how His Royal Highness the Regent was aware of their whereabouts.

After all, before Mo Ningchen spoke up, even Su Chengyu didn’t know that their next destination would be the City of Eternal Winter.

"Perhaps the Bei Luo Empire has long been aware of the Bam Alliance?"

The meaningful smile on Mo Ningchen’s face left Su Chengyu feeling somewhat uneasy inside.

Mo Ningchen’s remark, combined with the current situation, could be interpreted in two completely different ways. One was that the Bei Luo Empire, like Xia Country, could not tolerate the Bam Alliance’s posture. The other was that members of the Bei Luo Royal Family, or at least some among them, had already been part of the Bam Alliance.

Su Chengyu’s gaze landed on Blair, the auditor who was obviously a close confidant to the City Lord of Eternal Winter City, who was now smiling pleasantly as he looked at the three.

Clearly, he knew the three were discussing something and waited respectfully by the side, showing no dissatisfaction whatsoever.

Regarding the arrangement by the higher-ups, it seemed the auditor took it very seriously to heart.

Seeing this, Su Chengyu spoke up, "Then please, Auditor, make the arrangements."

"Certainly, certainly. I have already arranged the highest standard of accommodation for the three honored guests. If there are any other needs you may have, just let me know. Whatever I can do, I’ll make arrangements for you."

Blair said with a smile as he ushered the three onto the state guest carriage, not taking a seat inside the luxurious vehicle himself.

If it were the City Lord of Eternal Winter, it would be proper to ride in the same carriage as the three, but he was well aware of his own status, which wasn’t esteemed enough to share a carriage with them into the city.

After a Barrier was set up inside the carriage, Su Chengyu’s gaze turned to Mo Ningchen.

While Mo Ningchen had informed them of their destination, he did not disclose the purpose of their visit to the Tower of Eternal Winter.

Now that the three of them had entered the city with high profile, they clearly needed to prepare for what needed to be done afterward.

"The Tower of Eternal Winter holds many from the Nether Clan, among them are spies from the Demon Slayer Department."

Mo Ningchen’s statement made Su Chengyu widen his eyes in disbelief, "Isn’t it said that the Nether Clan and humans cannot coexist? Why would there be spies from the Demon Slayer Department among the Nether Clan?"

Before Mo Ningchen could speak, You Ming by his side answered Su Chengyu’s question.

"The inability to coexist is merely an inter-species issue and does not prevent some individuals from the Nether Clan from harboring good intentions towards humans."

Mo Ningchen nodded with a smile, "That’s exactly it. Moreover, for some of the Nether Clan, they have no other choice but to cooperate with humans. The Bei Luo Empire is only separated from the Dark Sea by a wasteland, while we in Xia Country are separated from the Dark Sea by an entire nation, hence their attitude towards Xia Country is somewhat more relaxed."

"Forced into submission by martial strength?"

Su Chengyu caught Mo Ningchen’s implication and spoke tentatively.

"A part of it is indeed so. Su Chengyu, I know what you’re thinking, but you have to understand that even if you truly become the Demon Slayer Saint, in the end, you would be serving Xia Country. There are many things that we don’t need to know too much about."

"So, not knowing means we can turn a blind eye?"

Mo Ningchen didn’t respond, neither confirming nor denying Su Chengyu’s question.

Su Chengyu understood Mo Ningchen’s position and, without further questions, turned his head to look at You Ming, curious about his attitude, especially since there was an evident considerable connection between him and the Nether Clan.

At this moment, You Ming was surprisingly calm, as if he did not care at all about everything Mo Ningchen had said, merely stating placidly,

"Nether Clan members may not all be aware of the Bam Alliance matter. I understand the Department’s realization that the Alliance is a joint effort between the Nether Clan and the Demonic Path, intending to break the current stalemate, but I do not believe this journey will yield any significant gains."

"Indeed, and considering that the Nether Clan members held in the Tower of Eternal Winter have been imprisoned for some time, it is normal for them to be unaware of the happenings in the outside world. Therefore, we need them to return to the outer world to help us collect information."

Mo Ningchen’s words caused a fleeting change in You Ming’s expression, which, although he suppressed his emotions in an instant, was still keenly noticed by Su Chengyu.

After composing himself, You Ming immediately said, "So, our visit to the City of Eternal Winter is to liberate the Tower of Eternal Winter?"

Mo Ningchen nodded heavily.

Upon hearing this answer, Su Chengyu felt a shock in his heart.

Before coming, he had not known the significance of the Tower of Eternal Winter, but he had understood its importance on the way, listening to their conversation.

The Tower of Eternal Winter was nearly the equivalent of the Demon Slayer Tower to Bei Luo Empire, as it was to Xia Country.

If people from another country sought to liberate the Demon Slayer Tower in Xia Country, regardless of their reason, they would undoubtedly be regarded as the greatest enemy.

And now, they were still riding in the state guest carriage of the Bei Luo Empire.

Su Chengyu swallowed hard and said, "Aren’t we allies with the Bei Luo Empire? Is this appropriate?"

"It is not appropriate."

Mo Ningchen spoke bluntly, "Therefore, we cannot let the Bei Luo Empire know that we are the ones doing this."

Su Chengyu was shaken; although he understood, he was still surprised by the precise answer and the cloak-and-dagger methods between nations.

But then, as another thought struck him, Su Chengyu spoke again, "Could it be that the Regent has guessed this already, and that is why he has elevated us to the status of state guests?"

"Do not forget our current identity; we are still part of the Bei Tang Family."

With that single statement from Mo Ningchen, Su Chengyu fully understood, recalling the words Mo Ningchen reminded him of when they first entered the borders of Bei Luo Country.

"Is this also a historical inevitability?"

"Yes."

Mo Ningchen’s affirmative answer confirmed Su Chengyu’s speculation.

What they were about to do might be known or unknown to the Bei Luo Empire.

But after the incident, they would certainly be linked to the matter.

As long as Su Chengyu and his companions executed their plan cleanly, without leaving any traces or slip-ups, even if the Bei Luo Empire had suspicions, they would definitely not completely sever ties with Xia Country over it.

Conversely, if the Bei Luo Empire intended to wage war against Xia Country, then even if they did nothing at all, countless accusations would mysteriously emerge, becoming the spark for the outbreak of war between Xia Country and the Bei Luo Empire.

Su Chengyu took a deep breath: "But judging by the actions of the Regent, at the very least they suspect that we will make some moves in the City of Eternal Winter. Trying to liberate the Nether Clan held within the Tower of Eternal Winter will undoubtedly not be an easy task."

"I will handle this matter."

Before Su Chengyu could finish speaking, You Ming declared resolutely, the firm belief in his eyes taking Su Chengyu by surprise.

He was almost certain that You Ming’s eagerness to shoulder this mission was not merely for the sake of the task itself.

Deep down in You Ming’s heart, he desired to liberate the Nether Clan in the Tower of Eternal Winter.
