Chapter 68 - Elder Ming's Plot

Xue Family Estate.

"Elder Ming, we have loaded the caravan with all the weapons and resources that you have instructed us to bring. It is now ready to be sent to the neighboring Blue Fang Empire." A figure dressed in full knight gear saluted as he spoke in a respectful voice while facing a person who had his back turned against him.

The person turned around, showing the face of a man that was nearing his old age. It was the man who sent Sword Four and Sword Five to destroy Jiu Shen’s store, an elder of the Xue Family, Elder Ming!

"Make sure that everyone in this caravan will have the crest of the Beiming Family tattooed on their bodies." Elder Ming stated with a sly smile on his face.

The knight saluted once more and replied in a deep voice. "As you say, Elder Ming."

Elder Ming sat down on his chair and waved his right hand as a signal for the knight to step out of the room.

The knight bowed deeply at Elder Ming and went out of the room.

After the knight left, Elder Ming’s smile broadened as he muttered to himself. "Beiming Lei, let me see how you will respond to this after it reaches the emperor’s ears."

After that, malicious peals of laughter reverberated coldly in that room.

"Prepare everyone to begin the march! Everything here must be sent out without mistakes!" A knight shouted loudly at the people who were dressed like merchants.

The people who were dressed like merchants stood in attention neatly. The overall impression they gave was similar to that of a company of soldiers who had weathered through countless wars.

The truth was that they were never merchants to begin with. In fact, they were death soldiers personally trained by Elder Ming to be sent on dangerous missions. They were only loyal to him and the Xue Family!

After that, the ’merchants’ jumped on their respective caravans with deft movements.

On either side of them were dozens of soldiers in full body armor mounting on their horses.

"Begin the march!" After seeing that everyone was fully prepared, the knight ordered as he kicked his horse while facing forward. His whole face was covered by his helmet and only the light from his eyes could be faintly seen. It was emotionless devoid of any undulation.

The whole caravan followed behind his lead without voicing out anything.

If one would look at them, they would surely think that this caravan was just like any other. But if the top experts were to see them, they would surely realize that no one in this caravan was weak. In fact, the weakest among them was at least at the 3rd-rank Crusader realm and there were dozens of them in this group!

They used a secret passage secretly built by the Xue Family to go out of the Silver Wing Empire without being noticed by the patrolling guards.

It was a big tunnel that was enough for twenty men to fit in a row. Just that alone took the Xue Family many years of hard work to build.

"Remain focused! Nothing should go wrong in this transaction!" The knight in lead shouted with a cold voice.

The one leading the caravan was actually Sword Three, one of the five Sword Assassins nurtured by Elder Ming! His strength was at the initial stage of the 7th-rank Emperor realm!

Just his presence in this caravan alone was enough to tell about how much importance Elder Ming placed in this transaction!

It was the darkest of the night when the group sneaked out of the Silver Wing Empire. Only the faint clunking of the caravan wheels and the hooves of horses walking on solid ground echoed in the darkness.

Sword Three squinted his eyes when he sensed another group ahead of them. He dismounted from his horse and walked forward by a couple of steps.

He then spoke in an emotionless voice. "Who are you people? Are you guys from the Fang Imperial Family of the Blue Fang Empire?"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!" The sound of someone clapping resounded in the darkness. It was then followed by a voice that was filled with hidden mockery.

"We are indeed the people sent by the Fang Imperial Family. And you guys should be the ones sent by the Beiming Family to deliver our goods, no? Haha! Impressive!" The man leading the other group chuckled.

Sword Three felt the disdain from the man’s voice but he feigned ignorance as he replied in an icy voice. "We have delivered the goods as promised. Take out the slaves so that we can finish this transaction."

"Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!" Faint footsteps could be faintly heard as Sword Three spoke. He then saw a towering silhouette dressed in a dull blue armor with a cape made from a savage beast’s fur.

"There’s no hurry, my friend. I would just like to speak with you about the Beiming Family’s reason for doing this? Are you perhaps planning to stage a rebellion with all those slaves we have sent you? It has been many years and your people might have already been prepared for that. Hahah!" The man inquired with a look filled with understanding only to be met with Sword Three’s deep and piercing gaze.

The man felt his heart skip a beat when he saw the emotionless eyes of Sword Three. It was as if he wasn’t looking at a man but instead a savage beast!

He swallowed the words he was about to say and forcefully shrugged his shoulders to mask his rising fear.

"Haha! You’re too rigid, my friend. Don’t worry. We care nothing about the well-being of the Silver Wing Empire. In fact, we would gladly offer our assistance if you decide to start a revolution." The man let out a dry chuckle before he spoke with a smiling expression.

Sword Three lips curved up beneath his helmet, but his eyes remained cold as he spoke. "The slaves..."

The towering man shook his head with a smile and signaled his men with his hand and ordered them in a deep voice. "Take out the slaves and give them to our friends here!"

"Yes, my lord!"
