God-Like Extraction

Chapter 457: Urgent Call from the Supreme Marshal! (1)

The one who controls the nation?

Replace?

“You mean Guan Zhonghua?”

The middle-aged man frowned. “He’s just the Prime Minister, not the emperor. He’ll step down in two years and someone else will take over. Killing him is useless. There are many people in the cabinet who can take his position. Besides, Guan Zhonghua…”

“Brother Xiang!”

The corners of the young man’s lips twitched. He interrupted irritably, “Have you played too much with women, or did all the alcohol you drink flow into your brain? Am I talking about Guan Zhonghua? Ah!”

“…Not Guan Zhonghua?”

The middle-aged man was at a loss. “Now that New Chu has integrated into the Yu Nation, and the Yu Nation is the cabinet…”

“I’m talking about Kong Xuan! Don’t tell me you don’t know who Kong Xuan is?”

Suppressing his impatience, the young man gritted his teeth and said, “New Chu has been annexed by the Yu Nation. Brother Xiang, don’t tell me you don’t know who the mastermind is?”

“Well…”

The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly. “Well, it seems that our ancestor surrendered first. In front of the whole world…”

“Enough!”

The young man finally couldn’t hold back and shouted, “There’s no need to say anything more. I just want to know, are you willing to help the Xiang Family get justice and take back what you deserve?”

“Well…” The middle-aged man hesitated.” We are willing, but what can we do to seek justice?”

“You don’t have to worry about that.” The young man waved his hand. “As long as you’re willing, wait for me here at 10 p.m. tomorrow.”

With that, he soared into the air, stepped on the air, and floated into the distance, disappearing into the night.

When the figure was completely out of sight, the middle-aged man’s dazed and dispirited attitude suddenly changed. His eyes became clear and his expression became solemn.

“Do you take me for an idiot?

“The one who controls the nation, Kong Xuan. Of course I know who he is.

“Replace Kong Xuan? Heh, kill the current Martial Sage and become the new Martial Sage of the Yu Nation?

“Your schemes are extraordinary. Become the new Martial Sage?”

The middle-aged man’s eyes flashed.

The young man’s motive was obvious. The person behind him had his eyes on the merged Yu Nation and wanted to become the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage of New Yu Nation.

The integrated Yu Nation had a population of nearly 500,000.

More than 400,000 people worshiped the Martial Sage.

To the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage, these people were a massive fortune.

The middle-aged man’s name was Xiang Yilong, the Second Master of the Xiang Family. He might not know everything about the Transcendent-grade, but he was most likely aware.

The Kingdom Defending Martial Sage could absorb the nation’s mental power through the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal to condense the Sage Origin Fruits and consume them to become stronger.

The more people there were, the more Sage Origin Fruits would be condensed, and the stronger he would be when controlling the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal to fight.

Therefore, the current Yu Nation was very coveted by some Transcendent-grade experts.

Especially the current Kingdom Defending Martial Sage, Kong Xuan. He had never revealed his true appearance.

Each time he appeared, he wore a strange mask and a fearsome battle armor.

If they secretly killed Kong Xuan and replaced him to become the Yu Nation’s Martial Sage, no one would notice.

The people of the country would also not know that their Martial Sage had been replaced by another person.

It could be said that the person behind the young man was extraordinarily ambitious!

Suppressing the current Martial Sage and replacing him? What a bold thought.

“To be able to kill a Martial Sage, one must also be a Martial Sage, a Transcendent-grade existence. Which country is the Martial Sage behind this kid from?”

“Hong Nation? Yue Nation? Zheng Nation? Or some major overseas faction? Or even the Western Continent?”

Xiang Yilong racked his brains and pondered over the pros and cons.

The Yu Nation was doing very well now. No matter how indignant he was, he knew that the circumstances benefiting the Xiang Family had already passed.

What benefits or disadvantages would it bring to the Xiang Family if someone wanted to harm a Martial Sage?

If Xiang Yilong cooperated and the person behind the young man successfully killed Kong Xuan, what would happen?

If they failed and Kong Xuan counterattacked, what would happen?

This matter was too shocking. Regardless of success or failure, it would cause a huge commotion.

Even though Xiang Yilong was displeased with the Yu Nation and hated Kong Xuan to the core,

it did not mean that others could use him as a pawn.

Xiang Yilong had been indulging himself for the past half a year. The other party had targeted him and he had deliberately approached him to turn him into a chess piece. He was lucky to have bumped into him.

The young man and company needed a member of the Xiang Family.

Even if Xiang Yilong wasn’t chosen, other members of the Xiang Family would be.

However, Xiang Yilong had performed very well. The young man could never tell that Xiang Yilong was only pretending and putting on an act in front of him.

The impact of this matter was too great. It was difficult for Xiang Yilong to tell anyone, including his father.

Right now, he had two choices.

The first was to cooperate with the young man to do something that might benefit him greatly.

However, there was a prerequisite to obtaining this benefit, and that was that Kong Xuan would be killed.

And a Transcendent-grade expert behind the young man would successfully replace Kong Xuan.

However, as one of the participants in such a secretive matter like replacing a Martial Sage, could Xiang Yilong continue to live?

Would the young man and the others give him a chance to live?

Keeping his mouth shut was utter nonsense.

At the very least, if it were him, and he was secretly killing the Martial Sage and replacing him,

the relevant personnel would definitely be wiped out.

Because only the dead could keep the secret!

So.

If Xiang Yilong really were to cooperate and help the person behind the young man achieve his goal, there was a 90% chance that he would be silenced!

And if the young man and company failed, Xiang Yilong would definitely be silenced!
