Chapter 572: Chapter 296: Sovereign Lanyun, Peak Captain_2
…
Bit by bit, Fang Yu loudly recounted to the Sovereign Lanyun the events of the Divine Hall battle, and the subsequent affairs in the Sin Domain.
From the war between Duorong and the Divine Hall to Meng Biao’s involvement with the Lanyun Army.
From applying for credit for Hua Yu afterwards to later suspicions that Hua Yu was murdered and someone impersonating him.
Then to the sudden appearance of the alchemy leader and being forced to hand over documents under the absolute pressure of strength.
Finally to the alchemy leader’s scheming to seize the Ocean Scripture and the release of the Sin Domain.
He recounted everything in detail.
Except for some secrets involving Fang Yu, everything was essentially the same as what truly happened.
And the people present, besides the Sovereign Lanyun, all showed slight changes in their expressions as they listened to Fang Yu’s continuous recount.
Especially when they heard that Meng Biao commanded the Lanyun Army to intervene in the war of Duorong Federation, the officers and politicians present couldn’t help but suddenly change their expressions.
“What nonsense are you spouting? How could the soldiers of Lanyun Sea Country possibly follow the orders of Duorong Federation’s officers?”
“Utter balderdash!”
From the left of the Sovereign Lanyun, a red-faced officer suddenly stepped forward, his face uncertain if out of anger or excessive blood flow, turning his skin a dark red.
He stepped forward a few paces, pointed at Fang Yu, and angrily berated in a cold voice.
Fang Yu glanced at this person, was about to speak, but suddenly felt a slight hmm inwardly.
Because he seemed to see…
On the circles of light wheels behind the Sovereign, there appeared to be strands of light, as faint as transparent, flowing along this person’s body to the light wheels behind the Sovereign, forming part of the light wheels.
Upon seeing this scene, Fang Yu was mildly intrigued and turned his gaze again to the other officers and politicians.
Sure enough, he found that each officer and politician seemed to have faint light threads flowing from them, linking with the light wheels behind the Sovereign.
And it was obvious that the higher the level of the officer or politician, the more prominent and thick the light threads emanating from them were. In this undertaking of “light wheel formation,” the higher the position, the more they could influence the rotation of the light wheels.
Seeing this bizarre scene, Fang Yu suddenly had a realization and remembered what Cheng Peng had said to him before.
At that time, Cheng Peng was introducing the advantages and disadvantages of four paths to him.
Regarding the “Era Glory” path, its advantage was related to the strength of the power behind it. If the backing was immensely strong, it could almost be invincible, sweeping across the other paths.
But… “Era Glory” also had a fatal disadvantage.
That is… what makes one powerful can also constrain one!
Once a peak is achieved through the “Era Glory” route, it means this peak powerhouse is no longer entirely themselves but a conglomerate of some will.
They become out of control; all actions and behaviors must align with the ideas and interests of the composite will.
So… in a way.
The light wheels behind Sovereign Lanyun provide immense power on one hand, but on the other, they are also a shackle.
If the Sovereign cannot act according to the will of the beings comprising the light wheels or goes against it, they will gradually lose the power of the light wheels and will step by step fall from the peak.
So… actually, the Sovereign sitting in front of him might have his own thoughts, but more than that, he needs to consider the thoughts of the surrounding politicians and officers?
This situation is very reminiscent of the ancient emperors of Blue Star.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu’s expression stirred, and he vaguely caught some of the thoughts of the Sovereign Lanyun, but this feeling was vague and not clear.
While Fang Yu was pondering in surprise, the officer from before sneered and scolded: “What? Got nothing to say? This brat dares to spout nonsense on such an occasion. I say we should just execute him on the spot to prevent this unruly child from offending the Sovereign!”
After hearing the words of the red-faced officer, Fang Yu collected himself and looked around the arrangement of seats in the hall.
He immediately saw that the seating arrangement on either side of the Sovereign was indeed very particular.
Like a very balanced and symmetrical pair of wings, flanking the Sovereign, with a subtle sense of confrontation between them.
Fang Yu then looked towards the Sovereign.
He saw that the Sovereign’s expression remained calm, with eyes that seemed to show no ripples, quietly watching him.
Seeing the scene in the hall, Fang Yu suddenly confirmed what he had just guessed and also guessed the Sovereign’s thoughts, becoming more emboldened.
He looked at the red-faced officer in front of him and suddenly smiled: “This elder brother should be from the Southern faction of the military, right?”
The red-faced officer was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, “How do you know?”
“I can naturally guess!”
Fang Yu stood upright, quietly glanced at the Sovereign, sensing that under the calm gaze of the Sovereign, there seemed to be a trace of interest, further solidifying his speculation.
He paced in the hall, facing dozens of officers whose auras were several times or even dozens of times stronger than his own without faltering: “The army led by Meng Biao, in a short time, managed to rendezvous with a Lanyun Sea Country army. To deploy from northern Lanyun to reach the battlefield, it would take at least two days.”
