Chapter Forty-Four: Secret Organization

  In the magnificent palace, in the direction of the left side of the main hall, there is a beautifully landscaped small study room, which is exactly where the Emperor of Tianlong Kingdom's study is located.

  "What? You're saying Wen Kai actually disobeyed my orders?" A majestic middle-aged man slammed his fist on the table, his eyes fixed angrily on his subordinate.

  "Yes, Your Majesty." An old man in a black robe nodded and said.

  "This Wen Kai really doesn't know what's good for him. Does he really think I don't dare to deal with him?" the stern middle-aged man said angrily.

  Liu Yan, the current emperor of Tianlong Kingdom, is 41 years old and in his prime. He has always had great ambitions, but standing before him is the royal secret organization, led by this elderly man, Sun Feng.

  "Your Majesty, what should we do next?" Sun Feng asked in a low voice.

  Liu Yan's expression changed several times before he finally let out a long sigh and said, "Forget it, don't worry about so much for now. This time, Cold Pimple was lucky, but next time won't be as good."

  "Your Majesty, but if it's like this, won't the power of the Leng family become even greater?" Sun Feng said what was on his mind.

  "It doesn't matter, although the Leng family has a high reputation in the military, it is limited to Leng Xiao Tian alone. The only talented person in the Leng family, Leng Xiang, has gone missing and his whereabouts are unknown."

  Sun Feng heard the emperor's words, his face slightly changed color, and he immediately reported: "Your Majesty, speaking of the Leng family, I had a piece of information from our scouts some time ago, but I don't know if it's suitable to report or not."

  "Oh! What news? The newspaper has arrived."

  "Yes, Your Majesty. According to the information brought back by our scouts, it seems that General Leng secretly sent a young man to the border more than half a year ago, where he joined the Fierce Tiger Regiment."

  Liu Yan heard his subordinate say this, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed, with a puzzled expression on his face: "Is this young man from the Leng family? Is there any other news?"

  "According to information from our scouts..."

  Liu Yan listened to the report from his subordinate, initially without a hint of concern. However, when he heard about Leng Xiao's achievement of beheading thousands of people in anger, his expression changed slightly, and he almost stood up immediately. Fortunately, his imperial mindset allowed him to calm down quickly. After his subordinate finished reporting everything, Liu Yan's expression was very complex at this moment, with a mix of doubt, surprise, shock, and murderous intent.

  Liu Yan sank into thought for a moment, and then his eyes flashed with a sharp light as he raised his head to ask: "Have you confirmed the identity of this young man?"

  "For the time being, the exact identity of this young man is still unknown, but as far as I know, Leng Feng's illegitimate son, Leng Xiao Yao, has not left the Leng family mansion for more than half a year. If my guess is correct, this young man should be Leng Feng's illegitimate son."

  "What I want is an exact answer, not your guess."

  Sun Feng saw that his master was getting angry, and hastily responded: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will immediately get to the bottom of this matter and investigate the identity of this young man."

  Liu Yan saw the terrified expression on his subordinate's face, and the anger on his face changed slightly. It was not surprising that Sun Feng was in charge of this secret organization of Tianlong Kingdom alone, and every day he received a mountain of messages from all over the world, how could he have time to take care of other things?

  "You start now, put down what you're doing and thoroughly investigate this young man's background." Liu Yan said calmly.

  "Yes, Your Majesty."

  "Your Majesty, what about the matter of the pass?" Sun Feng asked cautiously.

  "What's the border situation?" Liu Yan's face revealed a hint of cold smile, saying: "Since the Beastman Nation has the guts to start a war, they should taste the bitter fruit. If it weren't for the Northern Country secretly stirring up trouble, would they have had this audacity?"

  "What does Your Majesty mean?" Sun Feng asked tentatively.

  Liu Yan heard his subordinate's words, and a flash of murderous intent flickered in his eyes: "That's right, let Beiguo have its way for the time being. Once I've settled the internal affairs of Tianlong, it will be the time for Beiguo's destruction."

  Sun Feng heard this and his eyes flickered several times, hesitating before speaking: "Your Majesty, there's something... I don't know if I should say it."

  "Oh!" Liu Yan glanced at his subordinate in front of him, with a hint of mockery on his face: "Is there anything you, Sun Feng, don't dare to say under the sky? Speak up! I'll pardon your guilt."

  "Since Your Majesty has pardoned me, I will speak my mind. I think that Your Majesty wants to change the situation in Tianlong Country, which is a good thing for the country and its people. However, I believe that before Your Majesty's power is established, General Leng should not make any rash moves. I am afraid..."

  "Aren't you worried about Cold's prestige in the army?" Liu Yan responded lightly, and then said: "Sun Feng, do you know that my Taishang Huang has already handed over the military token to this Cold?"

  Sun Feng heard Liu Yan's words and was shocked, exclaiming: "What? Your Majesty, the Taishang Huang gave the military token to General Leng, then what about the one I came up with yesterday?"

  Liu Yan seemed to appreciate the look of surprise on Sun Feng's face, and with a faint smile said: "That's right, the military order I gave you in that urgent training was a fake one I made ten years ago."

  "Your Majesty, are you going to...?" Sun Feng was about to say "are you not afraid of being overthrown", but when the words reached his lips, he suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was the current Emperor of Tianlong Country, and this throne was his to command. So he swallowed back the words that had almost escaped his mouth.

  “Scared?” Liu Yan's face revealed a self-mocking smile: “I'm indeed very scared, I fear that the Liu family's reign will end with my generation. Leng Xiao Tian is indeed one of the three founding heroes of our Tian Long Kingdom, and I know that the Liu family's reign has been stabilized thanks to him. However, he was wrong to take over the military symbol again. As long as the symbol is not in the hands of a Liu family descendant, this reign will be unstable. For the sake of my family's legacy, even if it means being infamous for eternity, what does it matter?”

  Sun Feng heard Your Majesty's heartfelt words and hastily knelt down saying: "Sun Feng deserves to die."

  "Get up!" Liu Yan waved his hand and a gentle smile appeared on his face: "Sun Feng, how many years have you followed me?"

  Sun Feng stood up and replied: "Your Majesty, I have followed you for eleven years, eight months and ten days."

  Liu Yan heard Sun Feng's detailed words and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Eleven years have passed, hehe, how many more eleven years will there be in life? Sun Feng, do you know that currently, I don't have anyone reliable by my side, only you are the exception. That's why I handed over the secret organization to you, hoping you won't make me regret everything I've done."

  Sun Feng, who had already stood up, heard Liu Yan's words and immediately knelt down again: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. If it weren't for Your Majesty pleading for my life back then, I would have become a pile of yellow earth long ago. I am willing to die for Your Majesty, no matter the cost."

  Liu Yan felt relieved at Yu Sunfeng's actions, and waved his hand: "Get up! If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have said such heartfelt words to you. You can go now! Remember what I told you."

  "Yes, Your Majesty." Sun Feng stood up.

  "What have Feng'er and Sheng'er been up to lately?" Liu Yan suddenly thought of his two princes and asked casually.

  "The Crown Prince is still the same as ever, going in and out of the Drunken Dream Building every day. The Young Crown Prince has been staying in the palace recently, but..." Sun Feng trailed off without finishing his sentence.

  "Continue," Liu Yan waved his hand, indicating for Sun Feng to go on speaking.

  "His Highness has been frequently visiting the residences of various ministers, seemingly trying to win over the influential officials in the court. The only two residences he hasn't visited yet are those of Old Minister Zhao and General Leng." Sun Feng said this while glancing at Liu Yan who was sitting above him, as if observing his reaction.

  Liu Yan heard the news reported by Sun Feng, a hint of cold smile appeared on his face, and then he waved his hand and said: "I already know, continue to follow up, if there is any new news, report it at any time, you can go down!"

  "Yes, Your Majesty." Sun Feng bowed and withdrew from the study.

  Liu Yan saw his subordinate leave and a cold smile appeared on his face, muttering: "Xiao Yao, Sheng Er, hehe, it's interesting."
