489: C489 There Was a Secret Behind This

C489 There Was a Secret Behind This

"Huh?" When the Spiritual Force entered the official's meridians, Yang Xuan found out that the official was a Third Stage warrior. Furthermore, the Spiritual Force in his body was extremely pure, and it was much stronger than an ordinary Third Stage warrior.

However, these Spiritual Force seemed to have suffered a serious injury, and had lost all of their spirituality. They didn't even have the slightest instinct to fight back against the Spirit Aura that came from Yang Xuan. Instead, they looked dead and lifeless.

The strange thing was that Yang Xuan's Spiritual Force had walked around the official's body, but he hadn't found a single wound. Apart from the fact that he hadn't eaten for a long time and was weak, the official's body was normal.

The doubt in his heart disappeared. After investigating the official's condition, Yang Xuan removed the restrictions on the official's body. He took two steps back and opened up a safe distance, then quietly waited for the official to wake up.

After a moment, the official's eyelids trembled slightly, and then he struggled to open his eyes.

Perhaps it was because he had been locked up for too long, the officer who had just regained consciousness was somewhat at a loss. He looked at the scene in the underground cave with messy eyes and only managed to wake up after a long time.

"You, you are?" The official struggled to open his mouth. His voice was hoarse and dry.

"First tell me your identity." Yang Xuan did not answer the official's question. Instead, he asked. Although Yang Xuan had initially determined that the person in front of him should be an official of Great Wei, the current situation was unclear. It was better to be cautious.

Hearing Yang Xuan's words, a trace of surprise flashed across the official's eyes, as if he did not expect Yang Xuan to ask such a question.

Without answering Yang Xuan's question immediately, the official looked around the cave vigilantly. When he saw the cloaked man's corpse in the corner, he was slightly stunned, and the vigilance in his eyes finally dissipated by more than half.

"I am General Yuwen's deputy general, Lee Kai. May I ask who you are?"

"Lee Kai?" When Yang Xuan heard this name, his heart skipped a beat. He could not help but exclaim, "You are Lee Kai? How is this possible?"

Lee Kai was shocked by Yang Xuan's exaggerated performance. He asked, "You have heard of my name."

"More than that!"

Ever since he had become Zhou Fengmiao's disciple and joined the Profound Gate Pass, Yang Xuan had also specially learned about the situation in the Profound Gate Pass.

As the border area of the Great Wei, there were countless elite soldiers and fierce generals in the Profound Gate Pass. Apart from Zhou Fengmiao, the commander of the entire Profound Gate Pass's army, the god of war who was called the guardian god of the Great Wei, and the patriarch of the Giant Race with a special identity, Xueling, there were also famous generals like Greed General Tan Lang, Tiger General Qi Yulong, and Fei Lian General Ning Ziwei. Apart from that, there were also many talents who were good at planning or internal affairs.

For example, General Stephen was also in charge of the military discipline, military supplies, and logistics in Profound Gate Pass. At the same time, he was also in charge of the military and local coordination.

Although General Yuwen was not comparable to Qi Yulong and other generals in terms of military rank, his actual power was shocking. He was trusted by Zhou Fengmiao.

And Lee Kai was General Yuwen's trusted aide. He was in charge of assisting General Yuwen in coordinating local affairs.

Such an important person was actually quietly taken away and imprisoned here!

What was even more terrifying was that Yang Xuan had heard Yuwen Jian mention Lee Kai's name yesterday. His words sounded like Lee Kai was still in the army and there was no accident.

Could it be...

Yang Xuan felt a chill in his heart and asked for confirmation, "How did General Lee Kai get kidnapped? How long has he been locked up here?"

Lee Kai saw Yang Xuan's expression and knew that something big might have happened. He did not waste any more time and directly answered, "I was kidnapped on the road to coordinate the military transport. The location was on the post road about ten miles away from the military camp. Because of the drug they used, I don't know the enemy's appearance and origin... "

"Since then, I have been unconscious until now, until you woke me up, so I don't know how much time has passed, but..."

Lee Kai's tone paused, as if he remembered something and added, "But General Yuwen was discussing military funding with General Zhou Fengmiao a few days before I was killed."

"Military funding?" Yang Xuan was slightly stunned and asked, "General Lee Kai's military funds are the military funds of the Profound Gate Pass? Ordnance made by the south of the Yangtze River? "

"Huh?" Lee Kai was also stunned, as if he did not expect Yang Xuan to know about this. "It is indeed military funds from Jiangnan, although this kind of news is not top secret. But it's not something outsiders can understand. May I ask who you are?"

It was indeed military equipment from Jiangnan.

Yang Xuan couldn't help but sigh at the wonders of fate.

"To tell you the truth, I am the one in charge of collecting military funds from Jiangnan." Yang Xuan smiled emotionally and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yang Xuan, the new Marquis of Lo Capital, General Zhou's new disciple."1

"Huh? It was such a coincidence." Lee Kai was also stunned. He did not expect it to be such a coincidence.

But then, Lee Kai immediately realized the problem.

"Wait! Since the young duke said so, it meant that the military funds had been brought back. It had actually been so long!? Lee Kai was shocked!

Profound Gate Pass was the border of the Great Wei, and Jiangnan was the flourishing hinterland of the Great Wei. The distance between the two was quite far. Even riding a spirit beast from the Profound Gate Pass to the Jiangnan area would take a few days. Counting the journey back, it would only take a longer time.

It would take at least half a month!

Lee Kai quickly made a decision.

This group of mysterious people took a huge risk to kidnap me here, but they ignored me. What exactly do they want?

Lee Kai had an ominous feeling. He didn't care about the small talk. He looked at Yang Xuan and asked directly, "How is the situation in Profound Gate Pass?"

"On the surface, everything seems calm and peaceful, but..." Yang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "I just heard Yuwen Jian mention you yesterday. Judging from Yuwen Jian's tone, it seems like you are still in the military camp, and... "

Yang Xuan told Lee Kai about the recent situation in Profound Gate Pass and his own experiences, and finally concluded, "There must be some kind of shocking conspiracy!"

After Lee Kai heard Yang Xuan's words, he seemed to have thought of something. He fell into deep thought and his expression began to change.

"General Li, did you think of something?" Yang Xuan saw Lee Kai's appearance. Clearly, Lee Kai had some information that outsiders did not know about.

"Young master, I..." Lee Kai opened his mouth to speak, but he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. After hesitating for a long time, he still chose to give up. He sighed dejectedly and said, "Ah, forget it. It's just some baseless guesses. It's fine if you don't want to say it. "

"I wonder if the young duke can take me to see General Zhou Fengmiao. I have some things I want to say to him."

"Of course. That's my plan." Seeing Lee Kai in a difficult situation, Yang Xuan did not ask much and readily agreed to Lee Kai's request.
