Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 955 - 107: Guardian God

"Little Emperor, we will temporarily stop the war. Follow me, and someday, you can protect your mother like a real man," Yun Sheng looked at Ye Beicheng’s stubborn expression and remembered the past Ye Beiming.

If Ye Beiming were here, he would have made the same move.

Perhaps the Little Emperor and Ye Beiming have no blood relation, but Ye Beiming still cares about this younger brother.

As long as it’s someone he cares about, she will protect them until he returns.

She will be the Guardian God of Great Zhou until the moment he returns.

"Is what you said true? One day, can I really become a man like my brother?" Despite panting heavily and being injured, Ye Beicheng couldn’t hide his sense of pride.

He passed Yun Sheng’s test; this woman could no longer underestimate him.

"Yes, Imperial Sister-in-law promises you, as long as you follow her lead. One day, you will have the ability to protect those most important to you, just like your brother," Yun Sheng gently patted Ye Beicheng’s head, feeling a pang in her nose as she thought of Ye Beiming.

Once, there was a man who said, "With me, everything is possible." But... Ye Beiming, where are you now?

Yun Sheng took Ye Beicheng away, while in the court, Yun Bahe led a group of elders back to the court.

Due to Marquis Weiyuan usurping military power and the resulting rebellion, he had incited a large part of the Great Zhou Army.

Within the territory of Dazhou, tens of thousands of soldiers had rebelled.

The once mighty Great Zhou Army had reached a point of having no soldiers to use.

Yun Bahe immediately began recruiting new soldiers, but even so, the newly trained soldiers could not match Marquis Weiyuan’s seasoned troops.

Under Yun Bahe’s command, the new and old troops of Great Zhou were entrenched in several important cities, neither side willing to back down.

Yun Sheng, upon hearing the news, summoned Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao to discuss.

"Yun Sheng, are you suggesting we use the Beiming Guards for a sneak attack?" Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao revealed difficult expressions upon hearing this.

The Beiming Guards are Ye Beiming’s personal guards, numbering over three thousand.

These people were trained by Ye Beiming himself; they obey his every command and swear loyalty unto death.

But now, Ye Beiming’s whereabouts are unknown, and Yun Sheng does not wish to explain the true reason for his disappearance.

Earlier, Marquis Weiyuan’s spies had intentionally smeared Yun Sheng, spreading rumors that Yun Sheng and the Yun Residence had secretly harmed Ye Beiming.

Within the Beiming Guards, there was already discontent towards Yun Sheng, let alone assisting her and the Yun Residence.

Yet, Yun Sheng was unaware of this, and Cheng and Bu refrained from directly informing her.

"That’s right, I suspect this rebellion in Great Zhou is unusual. Marquis Weiyuan’s nature is well known to both of you. For him to contend with my grandfather, there must be a reason. There are other forces behind Marquis Weiyuan," Yun Sheng spoke with determination, not noticing their different expressions.

Yun Bahe is Great Zhou’s Martial Emperor, and he is also Great Zhou’s undefeated General.

Yun Sheng has unwavering faith in her grandfather’s ability to lead in war.

Not just one Marquis Weiyuan, even ten Marquis Weiyuan are no match for Yun Bahe.

The situation with Marquis Weiyuan clearly isn’t driven by his alone.

Yun Sheng ordered the Ancestor Master to secretly investigate several major cities, and indeed, they found some clues.

The evidence indicated that Marquis Weiyuan was being directed, and the mastermind pointed towards Dihong City.

The enmity between the Yun Residence and Dihong City seemed resolved since Yuan Shahu married into the Yun Residence.

However, the City Lord of Dihong was a vindictive person.

After failing to find the Divine Artifact, Dihong City seemed to have stopped moving on the Wuji Continent.

But the City Lord of Dihong was always looking for opportunities to expand Dihong City’s influence.

He originally planned to benefit from the chaos in Hou Qin and secretly supported the Second Prince of Hou Qin, Dugu Qian.

However, who could have guessed that Dugu Xiu, with iron and blood tactics, would swiftly eliminate Dugu Qian’s forces, and cleanse everyone related to Dugu Qian.

In the Hou Qin battle, the City Lord of Dihong failed miserably, losing people and a large amount of money, so much that he spat out old blood in anger.

After his frustration, the City Lord quickly received another piece of news.

Marquis Weiyuan had long been in cahoots with the City Lord and secretly informed him that the Regent King Ye Beiming of Great Zhou had suddenly disappeared on the night of his wedding, and is now nowhere to be found.

Great Zhou’s Beiming Guards are leaderless, and the military power of Great Zhou has been usurped. Now, Great Zhou is left with a useless pair of mother and son.

The City Lord of Dihong was ecstatic upon receiving this news.

Both Great Zhou and Hou Qin were once powerful nations, their national power comparable.

But ever since Ye Chengtian ascended the throne, especially after Yun Bahe left Great Zhou, Great Zhou’s fortune compared to Hou Qin has weakened considerably.

Let alone, the silent rebellion of Ye Beiming deeply undermined the position of Great Zhou.

But these issues are not the main problem.

As long as Great Zhou still has a Martial Emperor-level Ye Beiming, the City Lord of Dihong would not dare to recklessly invade Great Zhou.

With the Summoning Emperor level strength of the City Lord, he is not afraid of Ye Beiming’s cultivation as Martial Emperor.

But the City Lord has some foresight; Ye Beiming, under twenty, is already a Martial Emperor, and his achievements in the future might reach the Martial God level.

The City Lord doesn’t wish to offend a potential Martial God-level master.

But now Ye Beiming is missing, it’s as if half the sky of Great Zhou has collapsed.

The City Lord now had no reservations, dreaming spring and fall of becoming an emperor. He secretly supported Marquis Weiyuan and personally brought a group of Dihong City experts to Marquis Weiyuan’s camp, opposing Yun Bahe.

Currently in Great Zhou, the force opposing Yun Bahe is led by the City Lord himself, alongside several Dihong City elders.

"Yun Sheng, your intention is to bring in Beiming Guards for reinforcement? However, the City Lord’s strength is extraordinary, even if all the Beiming Guards were dispatched, they might not be able to contend with the City Lord’s Demon Beast," Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao said with some anxiety.

Originally, they did not regard Marquis Weiyuan highly, but with the City Lord behind him, the matter is no small affair.

Rumor has it that the City Lord’s Emperor’s Song has reached the eighth level.

The Emperor’s Song can summon Divine-level beasts, and on Wuji Continent, apart from the Red Robe Summoning Emperor, no one else stands as a match.

Let alone, the Beiming Guards simply won’t obey Yun Sheng’s commands.

"No, the strategy is to remove danger by attacking the source; I plan to attack Dihong City directly. This time, I want the old dog of a City Lord to lose everything," Yun Sheng said with a cold smile.

The father and son from Dihong City almost caused the Yun Residence’s ruin, leading to years of separation for her uncle and aunt. These things, Yun Sheng has yet to pursue.

If the City Lord had kept to himself in Dihong City, she might have let bygones be bygones.

But now that the City Lord Xuan Sitian is looking for trouble, Yun Sheng naturally does not mind sending him and Dihong City on their way.
