Best Duchy, Hot Spring Park.
Ding dong~
Ye Xuan, who was embracing the gentle and lovely Luo Tianyi, received a message on his phone. Upon opening it, he saw a message from Baili Wushuang: "The branch of the Church of Light in the Duchy of Mexi has been destroyed. Shall we proceed with the next step of the plan?"
"Yes."
Ye Xuan typed a reply on his phone, then deleted the message and put his phone down. There was no change in his expression throughout the entire process.
"Who is it?"
Luo Tianyi, enjoying the rare intimacy, felt her pores open up in the comfortable hot spring. However, the beautiful atmosphere was interrupted by the phone's ringing. A hint of displeasure flickered across her pretty face, her cheeks puffed out in annoyance, making her look incredibly charming and tempting.
"Heh, no one, just a marketing message."
He kissed the face of the beauty in his arms as a gesture of comfort and casually offered an excuse.
"Oh."
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Luo Tianyi didn't ask further, as her attention wasn't truly on the message anyway.
"Wife, come, let's discuss life."
As he spoke, Ye Xuan moved closer to the woman in his embrace. Knowing the nature of this man who was always trying to take advantage, Luo Tianyi quickly moved aside, watching him with a playful huff.
"Pfft~"
"Who wants to discuss life with you? You're so shameless."
"Heh, really."
With a splash, he dove into the water and quickly swam towards Luo Tianyi, catching her in his arms within moments. As expected, Luo Tianyi was about to face a vigorous "reassertion of marital authority."
...........
With Ye Xuan's command, the fate of the Duchy of Mexi was rewritten.
Immediately upon receiving Baili Wushuang's message,
Leng Feiyan, leading a group of her subordinates, did not proceed to Best City. Instead, they turned towards the Duchy of Mexi. Their objective was none other than a decapitation strike.
Although this task was unprecedentedly easy for them,
Both Leng Feiyan and her subordinates took this mission very seriously, as it was a command from their殿主 (Dianzhu - Hall Master/Lord). They had to complete it with their utmost effort.
"Proceed to the Duchy of Mexi at full speed!"
"Act according to the plan!!"
At Leng Feiyan's order, more than a hundred subordinates immediately set off towards their predetermined targets without any hesitation.
A plan to eliminate the key generals of Mexi began.
As for the reason, it was simple to destroy Mexi: killing Duke Will would suffice. However, to completely control the Duchy of Mexi, the best method was to eliminate all its important generals, thereby preserving the Duchy of Mexi with minimal cost. After all, in Leng Feiyan's mind, she had already considered the Duchy of Mexi as part of Best Duchy's territory.
.................
Half a day later.
Duchy of Mexi, Mexi City, Duke's Mansion.
At this moment, Duke Will, who was handling state affairs, couldn't help but imagine the beautiful future of Mexi Duchy, or rather, the Mexi Kingdom, in his mind. The mere thought made him excited.
"Report~!!"
Just then, an urgent voice came from outside the door, followed by a soldier kneeling on one knee, panting, "Your Grace, something terrible has happened!"
"General Kuva of Lunzan City has been murdered!"
"And... apart from Lunzan City, other cities, including the generals in Mexi City, were also successively killed an hour ago. Currently, the cities within Mexi are in chaos."
Duke Will, lost in his reverie, heard his subordinate's sudden words. The priceless jade bracelet in his hand slipped and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"What did you say!!"
With a thud, Duke Will stood up from his seat, his heart plummeting from the clouds into an abyss.
The generals were killed, and the country was in chaos!
This was an unprecedented disaster, a devastating blow to the Duchy of Mexi!!
"Your... Your Grace, this matter is absolutely true. And... the most terrifying thing is that we have no idea who the enemy is."
The subordinate swallowed hard and reported truthfully. Duke Will's face turned ashen, an expression of extreme ugliness.
"Alright, I understand."
Duke Will's expression changed drastically after hearing this. He dismissed the subordinate and immediately dialed the number of Felix, the two-winged angel of the Church of Light's branch.
Ring, ring, ring~
The call was connected, but no one spoke. Duke Will's heart sank as the call remained unanswered. The Church of Light was his greatest support, and now that his support was gone, how could he remain calm?
Swish~
At this moment, one, no, more than ten figures appeared in the villa's room. These people were none other than Leng Feiyan and her subordinates.
And so, the Duchy of Mexi entered its countdown to annihilation.
