The situation in Lingyue Country is like this; the quality of the spiritual jade handed over cannot be guaranteed.
However, Chen Lei still needs to investigate in detail, so in the past few days, Chen Lei has been going to the ministers and princes' residences of Lingyue Kingdom from time to time to inquire about the news. Finally, he discovered that there is still a hidden power in Lingyue Kingdom.
This force is the root cause of the decline of Lingyue Kingdom.
"Interesting, the small Lingyue Kingdom is so complicated." Chen Lei was a little surprised. Then, he began to go deep into the palace to inquire about the whereabouts of the emperor of Lingyue Kingdom.
The emperor of Lingyue Kingdom has not attended court for three years. All court affairs are handled by the left and right prime ministers and the Secretariat.
What has been rumored in the court and the country is that the emperor of Lingyue Kingdom is seriously ill, but after the emperor retired, no one has seen him again, and not even any news has been heard. Therefore, there has been no crown prince for these three years. Otherwise, Lingyue Kingdom would not have become so chaotic in such a short period of time.
After several days of investigation, Chen Lei finally found out the residence of the Emperor of Lingyue Kingdom. It is said that the Emperor of Lingyue Kingdom has been recuperating in this palace.
Late at night that day, Chen Lei sneaked into the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, Chen Lei had a feeling that he was being watched.
"Who dares to trespass into the Cining Palace?"
A voice was heard, and then an old man in eunuch's clothes, with a pointed face and monkey cheeks, appeared in front of Chen Lei out of thin air.
Chen Lei looked at the eunuch, whose cultivation had actually reached the seventh level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
The strength of this eunuch is clearly beyond the level of the strong men of Lingyue Country.
In Lingyue Kingdom, even the palace priests in Lingyue Kingdom generally have strength around the fifth level of Linghai Realm. If their cultivation is higher, they are not someone that Lingyue Kingdom can invite.
This eunuch turned out to be a master of the seventh level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, which was naturally beyond Chen Lei's expectations.
What surprised Chen Lei even more was that the eunuch's perception was so sharp, much sharper than that of an average seventh-level Spirit Sea Realm expert.
"Who are you?"
The eunuch had a cold look in his eyes and a chill emanating from his body, and he asked in a shrill voice.
"You don't have to worry about my identity. I'm very curious about yours. You are Zhang Dehai, that's impossible. I didn't know Zhang Dehai has such strong strength." Chen Lei said.
Zhang Dehai is the chief eunuch beside the Emperor of Lingyue Kingdom and the director of Silijian. He holds a high position of power and is the most trusted person of Lingyue Kingdom.
Chen Lei had inquired about the information and naturally knew Zhang Dehai very well. According to the intelligence he knew, it was impossible for Zhang Dehai to have the cultivation level of the seventh level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
"This is not something you should know. Today, you actually broke in here. This is a capital crime. Die now."
The eunuch had a shrill voice, but he attacked Chen Lei at the first moment.
He swung the whisk in his hand, and suddenly the white whisk stood straight, each strand of it shining with cold light, like a steel needle, stabbing towards Chen Lei.
This white whisk instantly gave Chen Lei a sense of extreme danger.
"Suppress it!"
