Working Prophet

Ivan frowned. Although he wanted to make Hongye Lake clear again, he was also happy to give away the two hot potatoes in his hands.

But that was after he got Duren's inheritance. Ivan knew that Shelly and Immel took a lot of property with them when they fled, but he didn't know the exact amount.

But Du Lun has been the captain of the royal guard for such a long time, so he must have a lot of savings. How could Ivan be willing to spit out such a big piece of fat when it was brought to his mouth.

He thought for a while and said to Li Yu, "You can take Ymel back to Luye for treatment, but her mother will stay, and you will have to send her back after you cure Ymel.

"My cousin Duren entrusted them to me, and I cannot leave them alone."

Miss Rabbit was amused by Ivan's shameless words.

If it weren't for the fact that he was still in the opponent's territory, the female lord would have just drawn the gun and shot this guy out.

"I have no objection," Li Yu said, "but the key to this matter is whether Miss Immel is happy or not."

"What's the meaning?"

"She is the one responsible for communicating with Shui Ling. If she cannot keep her mind calm, the communication will most likely fail."

"Are you taking me for a fool, Prophet Merlin?" Ivan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, "I have never heard this statement before. The success of the ceremony also depends on the mood of the sacrifice."

"This is also the reason why you still can't do anything about Hongye Lake." Li Yu said calmly.

"Bold!" Ivan's guard captain Dave shouted, "How dare you be so disrespectful to Lord Ivan."

As he spoke, he took a step towards Li Yu's direction.

The threat contained in his step was mainly symbolic, so Li Yu should be careful when he spoke next.

But he didn't expect that Li Yu didn't react at all. The guy next to him, who was wearing a weird black and white mask, had said nothing since he came in, and didn't even eat, suddenly stood up and walked towards him.

When Dave saw this, he couldn't help but scolded in slight annoyance, "Stop! Otherwise, don't blame me for attacking you."

But the man acted like he didn't hear it.

Dave saw that the warning was useless, and the anger in his chest suddenly surged, but he still maintained the minimum restraint and did not draw his sword.

Because the person opposite also had no weapon in his hand, Dave planned to use his fists to teach the other person a lesson. However, as soon as the two met each other, Dave felt a sharp pain on his face.

He didn't even see what the opponent was doing, so he covered his nose and fell backwards.

Seeing that their captain was at a disadvantage, the four guards on the side all surrounded him and drew their swords at the same time.

At this time, the masked weirdo picked up Dave's sword.

The next moment, he jumped into the crowd, and his sword was like a dragon. No one was his enemy. In just a moment, the swords in the hands of the four guards were knocked away by him.

Everyone present was dumbfounded by this miraculous swordsmanship. Ivan's words, "Everyone, step aside. Prophet Merlin and Miss Ilea are honored guests." The battle was over before he could finish his words.

This also made him very embarrassed.

Ivan obviously didn't expect that his men were so incompetent. They couldn't defeat one of the five. In addition, the momentum and martial arts displayed by the masked man also made him secretly frightened.

It seems that there is something really good about this pair of suspended training. There are so many masters under his command. It is no accident that Ilea can win the championship in this martial arts competition.

Although one of the two parties is in the Western Region and the other is in the Elk Valley, and they are unlikely to have much interaction, Ivan's attitude became much more polite after that.

He said to Li Yu, "Prophet Merlin, you said that the ceremony might fail, which means it might succeed. Can you try it first?"

"Okay." Li Yu did not retort this time and just said, "Give me some time to prepare. We can set off before dusk."

"Thank you." Ivan nodded.

Then the banquet continued, but when the same food was eaten in his mouth, Immel could no longer taste anything.

Now she was like a puppy in the rain, huddled under the eaves and shivering.

Her fate was decided in a few words, and she didn't even get a chance to interject.

For the first time, Immel felt the cruelty of this world.

She didn't know how she survived the next period of time. Her mind was confused and she wanted to go find her mother, but Shelly and Uncle Matt had already been taken away by the maid.

After everyone had had enough wine and food, Ivan said to Li Yu, "I will ask Garrison to assist you. If you need anything else, you can tell him. In addition, I also want to say a few words to my niece." talk.

"Calm down her nervousness. She can understand that this is a necessary sacrifice for the people living on this land, but after all, she is only fourteen years old, so she will inevitably be nervous."

Ilea looked at Li Yu, who nodded slightly, and the Shuangxiujiao group left the hall.

The man wearing a black and white mask was the last to leave, and glanced at Ivan before leaving.

His gaze made Ivan a little uncomfortable, but now it was Ivan who was asking for help. In addition, there were many masters among the believers on Saturday, so Ivan pretended not to see him.

After walking out of the castle, Li Yu patted the masked man on the shoulder and comforted him, "Wait a moment, and I promise to take away your daughter and wife soon."

The masked man nodded and then sighed, "Am I really bad at judging people?"

"I think you are just used to judging others by yourself, thinking that everyone will treat you the same way you treat them. But in fact, there are very few people in this world who can have the character you have."

"I suddenly discovered that I am not a competent father or husband. What I insist on will only bring disaster to the people around me." The masked man smiled bitterly.

"No, you just weren't put in the right position." Li Yu said, "You actually did a pretty good job when you were the captain of the royal guard. Although there was a slight situation in the end, it was not your fault. .

"No matter how good the guards are, they can't stop the betrayal from the people around them, but if it involves politics... that's really not your strong point."

"Priest Cornelia also said similar things to me. It may be a relief for me to leave the capital."

The former head of the imperial guards was silent for a moment, then he opened his mouth and said after a pause, "Are you really sure that you can purify Hongye Lake for Ivan?"

"Am I like a person who makes promises that he cannot fulfill?" Li Yu asked, "I will purify Hongye Lake for him, but Ivan will not get the results he wants."
