As darkness fell, the Dragon Sealing Guard, who had gone to various locations, successively reported that the operation had gone smoothly.
Ye Li also planned to return home in triumph.
In response, Tong Feng immediately led his own car over, smiling warmly, "Commander Ye, use this!"
Although he has the waist token of [Deputy Commander of the Dragon Seal Guard], he may still be subject to the Capital City's no-fly zone restrictions if he is not on a mission.
So this move of his was spot on.
"Thank you very much."
Ye Li looked at the Demon Horse shrouded in demonic energy, hesitated for a moment, and finally, with the mindset of trying something new, he lifted his leg and stepped onto it.
The Black-Scaled Demon Horse is naturally unruly.
Tong Feng wanted to say something to soothe his beloved horse and stop it from making too much of a fuss, but seeing that Commander Ye was about to set off, his horse didn't utter a single sound of dissatisfaction. Instead, its bright eyes were fixed on the road ahead.
This made him swallow back the words he had prepared, and he clicked his tongue helplessly.
He then cupped his hands and added:
"Once all the escaped members of the Mo Family have been captured and brought to justice, they will be directly imprisoned in the Fenglong Prison. If Commander Ye has any new instructions, please send them back to the army immediately."
Ye Li nodded slightly, then somewhat awkwardly mounted the Demon Horse, his figure transforming into a stream of light and disappearing from the spot.
It flew straight towards the Capital City [Zhenyuan Mansion].
Various conversations could be heard from time to time inside the mansion.
Ye Li pushed open the door and entered.
The maid Baiyue was bustling about, directing traffic, managing the affairs of the entire Zhenyuan Mansion in an orderly manner, just like a noble mansion when its master was not at home.
They heard a strange noise coming from the gate.
Baiyue immediately strode over, a smile appearing on her pretty face:
"General Ye, you're back."
"Um."
Ye Li nodded first, then pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether I have servants or not. I won't be staying in the manor for too long."
If he really wanted to enjoy life, he wouldn't have left Blue Star in the first place, so he didn't feel much about such luxurious arrangements.
Baiyue thought he was implying he wouldn't rest, and her heart softened immediately. She said:
"There are countless trivial matters in the world, and even if a general had three heads and six arms, he could not solve them all. You must prioritize your health."
"Although high-level cultivators possess boundless physical and mental strength, there is still a concept of mental state."
It wasn't entirely about building up the Third Princess's favorability; it was more about genuine respect.
From Longtan Grand Commandery to the Xianjing Continent, and now to the vortex of the Capital City.
Baiyue had never seen the other party rest even for a single day, nor had she ever seen the other party show the slightest weakness or fatigue. It was truly a fierce demeanor that made one feel ashamed of oneself.
Thinking of this, she sighed inwardly and bowed even more respectfully, saying:
"The news of your campaign against the Mo Family has reached Her Highness's ears, but she has been busy with the matter that the General has been concerned about, as well as tomorrow's court assembly."
"Therefore, I was unable to come in person, and can only convey my regards to the General on his behalf. I hope you understand."
"It's alright." Ye Li waved his hand and walked straight into the mansion, his voice as usual.
"How's the permission activation going?"
The Mo Family has been destroyed, and the so-called "Shangqing Bai Dian" is nowhere in sight.
The enemy was waiting for him there, and with the secret to immortality in his possession, he had no intention of resting.
"It's all taken care of for you."
Seeing that the other party had brought up serious matters, Baiyue smiled and said, "The Token for reviewing the files will be available tomorrow morning. When would you be free to go to the Qingxin Hall to pick it up?"
"If it's tomorrow morning, Your Highness has a very important court assembly to attend, so I'm afraid you'll have to wait for me in a Side Hall..."
"That's alright."
Ye Li shook his head slightly; he always had some patience for those who did their jobs conscientiously.
Just as he was about to see the guest off, a strong sense of unease, as if he were being secretly watched, suddenly overwhelmed him!
In an instant, Ye Li turned around sharply!
A vast golden light surged from his eyes, and the divine light of his Dharma Form gathered on his body, ready to be unleashed!
However, all that met the eye was an empty, pitch-black sky.
His brows furrowed involuntarily. "..."
With the Golden Soul within him, his perception was comparable to that of a Supreme Being.
It can't be a misperception.
However, the [Good Fortune Avoids Calamity] skill was not triggered, which means that the person secretly observing had no Killing Intent and could not detect even the slightest fluctuation of aura, indicating that their methods were quite formidable...
In the entire Capital City, there are very few people who meet this criterion!
Late at night, Qingxin Hall.
While washing her princess's fair ankles, Baiyue relayed Ye Li's message to her, occasionally glancing at Li Yingluo's unusual expression.
That's really strange.
I just accomplished an important task for General Ye; I should be happy. Why does Your Highness seem... so nervous?
Under the watchful gaze of the Baiyue.
Li Yingluo remained tense, her lips pressed tightly together as she asked:
"Baiyue, a few days ago Ye Li personally requested that I take on the biggest Trouble in the palace, and leave the rest to him, right?"
"That's right." Baiyue's doubts deepened, but she still nodded respectfully in response.
"Then there's no problem."
Li Yingluo's expression relaxed slightly. After clearing her throat twice, she said seriously, "Regarding the great turmoil in the Southern Territory, Father Emperor has kept the relevant memorials in the palace without issuing them."
"The official in charge of handling this matter has not yet been selected."
"Therefore, I just wrote a report and included Ye Li's name."
