North Wind Town, the main hall of the Inner Manor.
Hoping to do someone a favor that cost him nothing, Tudou had truthfully informed Mora that the Wang Family in the Garrison Prefecture might rebel. But he had offered no advice or specific details. After that single warning, he had taken his leave.
To be honest, Mora was utterly baffled by this situation himself. His attention tonight had not been on the Garrison Prefecture at all, and he could not understand why that idiot Wang Anquan would jump out and stir up trouble again.
You already fucking surrendered. Why not just settle down and be a traitor? Why keep going back and forth? Was betrayal addictive?
Hands clasped behind his back, he paced a circuit of the room with measured steps, then turned toward the commander of the Gray-Robed Battalion-Feng Yiyang.
Although Mora was the chief official of the Inner Manor, he had no military authority and could not control the dozen or so Monk Soldier offices, each with its own power base. At critical moments, however, he could mobilize the Gray-Robed Battalion under Feng Yiyang.
In terms of the factions established within the North Wind Town Secret Realm, Feng Yiyang was a military officer, but he belonged to the same faction within Heavenly Radiance Temple as Mora. Before coming here, Mora had received a secret letter personally written by a faction leader, allowing him to identify himself to Feng Yiyang in North Wind Town so they could help each other.
But in terms of the Heavenly Dao rules governing the secret realm, Feng Yiyang was actually an assistant and accomplice the Heavenly Dao had assigned to Mora, balancing the strength of the various forces to make the secret realm expedition more exciting and full of unexpected developments.
As everyone
