On the top of Shrek City, on the perfectly fitted roof tiles, Huo Yuhao sat quietly.
The warm sunlight shone on the jet-black robe.
Beneath the heavy hood, deep purple eyes reflected a sharp light, as if a sharp sword could dissect a person completely.
A piece of news was spreading like wildfire Shrek City, and everyone was talking about it on the streets.
The prince consort of the Heavenly Soul Empire will lead a delegation to welcome Princess Vina back to the country for their marriage.
The residents of Shrek City hadn't seen anything exciting in a long time, so they were naturally delighted with this kind of news, especially since it was a wedding.
The residents all wanted things to be lively, so they talked enthusiastically about topics like Vina.
Even Vina's time studying at Shrek Academy has been thoroughly investigated.
"Princess Vina only recently enrolled and is currently studying in the outer academy."
"What's the big deal? I even know which bedroom Princess Vina lives in!"
"Oh my god, really? I heard Princess Vina is a stunning beauty. Tell me quickly, I want to go and see her."
Such discussions were everywhere on the streets of Shrek City, and people had even dug up all the information about Vina at Shrek.
This is an intelligence network exclusively for these residents; it's truly terrifying.
Huo Yuhao's ears twitched slightly. He stopped listening to the gossip and instead looked quietly into the distance, as if waiting for something.
Clatter
Two sounds of rubble colliding came from behind, and Jiang Nannan and Zhang Lexuan, both dressed in black robes, appeared behind Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao glanced back at them, and the two of them immediately sat down beside him.
Zhang Lexuan sat cross-legged, her two long, slender legs pressed together, and reached out to guide Huo Yuhao to lie on her legs.
Jiang Nannan, on the other side, stretched out her slender fingers and massaged Huo Yuhao's calves.
Huo Yuhao was enjoying the service from the two men, but his eyes remained fixed on the distance.
Zhang Lexuan reached out to soothe Huo Yuhao's tense nerves, and then took out the intelligence Huo Yuhao had just intercepted, placing it in front of him, saying, "Lord Shadow, this is the latest intelligence. According to the investigation by the members of the Heavenly Soul Empire's Garden, the Heavenly Soul Royal Family has now been secretly controlled by the Body Sect."
"And today's so-called wedding procession is probably part of the Body Sect's operation against Shrek."
Jiang Nannan added, "Moreover, it seems that Vina is unaware of this operation; the information she's been sending out these past few days has all been irrelevant."
"I suspect that she has actually been abandoned by the Body Sect."
Zhang Lexuan frowned, looking into the distance with Huo Yuhao, and continued, "However, the Du Busi from the Body Sect hasn't killed him yet; his injuries haven't fully recovered. Lord Shadow intervened back then, and it should take him decades to fully recover."
"How dare he lay a hand on Shrek Academy now?!"
As Zhang Lexuan spoke, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes; she had already added Du Busi to her kill list.
Clearly, this "Du Busi" is targeting Shrek, which means it's targeting Lord Shadow.
Moreover, she knew that Lord Shadow possessed Body Martial Soul, so Shadow might also be interested in the so-called Body Sect's secret techniques.
Jiang Nannan pondered for a moment, then held up a finger to her chin and said, "Could it be that this Du Busi was instructed by some Deity, which is why he had the courage to directly attack Shrek Academy?"
Jiang Nannan's guess was indeed reasonable. Nowadays, whenever an enemy suddenly becomes powerful and fearless, there is an 80% chance that it is guided by Deity.
Their Shadow Garden has actually prevented many events influenced by Deity over the years.
Their increasing activity also drew the attention of the Deity.
However, according to the information provided by Lord Shadow, those Deity did not take action themselves because of the God Realm Committee.
However, the increasing number of incidents indicates that the Deity are beginning to lose their composure.
Therefore, it is quite possible that the Body Sect received help from the Deity.
Zhang Lexuan's expression was grave, her Soul Power surging within her body. She coldly said, "Since that's the case, we'll know once we exchange blows."
Jiang Nannan nodded in agreement.
Huo Yuhao listened to their conversation, completely disregarding the so-called Body Sect.
As for those Deity, he was actually quite confident, but he didn't have any plans to eliminate them directly at the moment.
After all, he felt he should enjoy his life. If he went up and killed the mastermind behind the scenes, he felt his future life would lack a lot of fun.
How's the manpower preparation going?
Huo Yuhao then spoke slowly.
Zhang Lexuan and Jiang Nannan immediately became respectful and said in unison, "The manpower is ready. People have been arranged nearby. The so-called wedding procession will be monitored by us the moment it enters the city."
"If they make any unusual move, our men will surround them instantly."
Huo Yuhao listened to their words, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke again, "Divide the team into two parts, the majority using the Shrek identities, and the other small part using the Garden identities."
"Okay, I understand. I'll make the arrangements later."
Zhang Lexuan nodded in agreement, having guessed some of Lord Shadow's thoughts.
Their original plan was to use Shrek's identity and not to expose the Shadow Garden.
The reason Lord Shadow said that is very likely because of Vina.
After all, Lord Shadow has personally recruited some new people these days.
Just yesterday, she personally instructed Meng Hongchen in cultivation.
As a member of the Seven Shadows, she was able to guess some of Huo Yuhao's thoughts.
Zhang Lexuan then nodded to Jiang Nannan, Jiang Nannan quickly got up and jumped off the roof to carry out what Huo Yuhao had just said.
Huo Yuhao slowly closed his eyes, instantly connecting with Zhang Lexuan and Jiang Nannan through his Spiritual Detection Sharing, transmitting his plans and ideas into their minds. Only then did he change his detection direction, shooting straight towards the front of Shrek City's gate.
Suddenly, Huo Yuhao's eyes snapped open, and he sat up from Zhang Lexuan's lap.
The images from the Spiritual Detection appeared clearly in my mind.
Dozens of exquisitely decorated carriages were running forward, adorned with numerous red ornaments, creating a festive atmosphere.
Behind the carriage was a well-trained squad of a hundred men, each with a serious expression and an air of menace.
Huo Yuhao smiled, and through the carriage, he could see its interior, thus confirming their objective.
He muttered to himself, "Looks like these boring days will finally get a little something new going on."
