Chapter 537 Suo Liuxiang's Career Path

Suo Liuxiang frowned slightly when he smelled the blood, but soon regained his smiling expression.

After all, if you think about it carefully, the human nobles seem to be playing quite perverted games, and it seems normal to smell blood in the castle.

She came here with an important mission and could not reveal any flaws. Ordinary people would not show any abnormality just by smelling blood from a distance.

"Ms. Suo Liuxiang, His Royal Highness the First Prince has just been summoned by His Majesty the King. Please move aside and wait for a moment."

The one in charge of receiving Suo Liuxiang was the eldest prince's trusted butler. He looked calm and apparently didn't know that his master had passed away.

The eldest prince was not the kind of dissolute aristocrat, but as a representative of the corrupt aristocratic circle, it was impossible for him to keep himself clean all the time when he hung out with those questionable aristocrats.

Therefore, it was normal to invite some new ladies in the upper class to his bedroom, and the housekeeper was used to it.

"Really~"

Suo Liuxiang's voice is delicate and charming. It has nothing to do with her personal character. It's just that her race sometimes needs to use mimicry or charm to lure the enemy into the trap, so she has certain related talents.

At this time, she is shouldering the mission of being the supreme ruler, and she must exert her full strength to infiltrate the royal family and obtain confidential information.

When she heard the butler say that the eldest prince was summoned by the king, combined with the smell of blood she had just smelled, she felt that something was wrong and wanted to try to investigate.

Thinking of this, she approached the butler with enchanting steps, "Can I still see the eldest prince today? I'm so lonely now~"

As she spoke, she coquettishly took the butler's arm.

The butler, who is over fifty years old, believes that he has seen all kinds of big scenes and is the elite among butlers. He can remain calm in all kinds of situations, but at this moment, there are still some ripples in his heart.

There were many people in the palace, so in order to avoid suspicion, he quickly shook off Suo Liuxiang's hand and said, "Miss Suo, Miss Suo Liuxiang, let me take you to the eldest prince's residence first."

Suo Liuxiang smiled and said, "Thank you for your help~"

In this way, she successfully sneaked into the palace, and she felt that the butler in front of her was easy to control, and she could repeat the same trick and let him take her to where the eldest prince was.

…………

Just as Suo Liuxiang sneaked into the palace, in the old king's bedroom on the upper floor of the castle.

Clem protected Princess Lana behind him and looked at Lu Li with a wary face and fear in his eyes.

The main thing is that the man in front of him, who looks like a human, has strength and methods that he cannot understand.

The person Climb admired most was the Kingdom Warrior Captain Gazef, but he felt that even Mr. Gazef could not be so powerful.

"Clem, don't be like this. Mr. Lu is not our enemy."

Lana stretched out her bare hand and placed it on the back of Clem's hand. Her voice was gentle and calm, and there was no sign that she had just been humiliated by Lu Li.

Climb was somewhat indignant, but seeing Princess Lana's words, he did not want to act rashly.

"Ah."

Seeing this, Lu Li nodded in satisfaction, "You are very sensible. I hope you will always be like this in the future. I don't care about your private life, but you have to do the things I give you well."

Princess Lana lowered her eyebrows when she heard this, lifted the hem of her skirt and saluted, saying, "Yes, I will obey your order."

The second prince standing by did not say a word the whole time, but his face was extremely gloomy.

"What exactly does the Theocracy want to do?"

When the second prince saw that Lana had completely compromised, he knew that the royal family of this country had completely lost its sovereignty and they were completely powerless to resist Lu Li.

Even if the Kingdom’s army was assembled and the warriors led by Gazef fought bravely, it would still be difficult to defeat this monster whose strength was beyond their comprehension.

"It's not about what the Theocracy wants to do, but what I want to do."

Lu Li corrected, "The Church is also currently under my jurisdiction."

Lu Li's words shocked the Second Prince so much that his fat face trembled, "Even the Silian Religious State..."

It was a little hard for him to believe. Others might not know, but he knew that the Theocracy was the strongest among the major human countries, and its cutting-edge strength had always been kept secret, but conservatively speaking, if the Theocracy really sent out its strongest force, it could easily sweep across the surrounding major countries.

Such a terrifying religious nation actually surrendered to the man in front of him, which made him see even less hope of resistance.

Princess Lana, on the other hand, was very calm. She raised her hand and gently patted Clem's shoulder, like a dog owner comforting her dog, asking Clem to put away his hostility. She turned to Lu Li and showed her signature smile, "Mr. Lu is so powerful, do you want to conquer the world?"

"conquer the world?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "I am not interested in that kind of thing. I just want to protect human countries from being harmed and give people a more stable and better life."

After hearing Lu Li's words, both the Second Prince and Princess Lana had a look of disbelief in their eyes.

They couldn't imagine what the intention of a monster in human skin was to say such things.

After all, what good would it do for a powerful hermit who suddenly emerged from the mountains to do such a thing, no matter whether he was a human or not?

Princess Lana and the Second Prince were both smart people, so they couldn't understand what Lu Li said and were full of doubts in their hearts, but Lana hid her doubts better.

On the contrary, Clem, who was more simple-minded, actually thought about Lu Li's words seriously and asked angrily, "Don't lie. If you really want to protect humans, why would you hurt the king and the eldest prince!?"

As soon as he entered the room, he saw the body of the eldest prince. To be honest, he couldn't tell who the exploded meat paste belonged to, but he heard that several heirs had been called away, so the dead one should be the eldest prince.

Lu Li calmly sat back in the chair in front of the bed. "I said that we want to protect all of humanity, not just the selfish nobles. The old king is old and frail, and he was about to die. I just gave him peace, and I don't want the ruler of this country to be incompetent. This is not conducive to the stability of the country."

Seeing Lu Li saying this seriously, the Second Prince's expression became even weirder. He was actually the beneficiary of this matter, but he always felt that Lu Li had bad intentions.

Rather, the more the other party talked about protecting humanity and ensuring a stable country and a good life for the people, the more he felt a chill down his spine.

"But...but this is treason!? How can you kill the king and the royal family?"

Climb was the most naive and brave one, so he asked again.

"Clem!" Princess Lana raised her voice, obviously very dissatisfied with her dog for going against its master's wishes. At the same time, she was also worried that Clem's repeated questioning would make Lu Li furious and kill him.

"Princess Lana..."

Clem didn't understand why Princess Lana, whom he had always respected, admired, and even loved, would try to stop him, even though the murderer of the king and the eldest prince was sitting in front of them.

"You are so naive. I suddenly understand why Lana likes you."

Lu Li smiled and said, "You don't think that without using force, someone will give up the throne obediently, right? The sword in your hand, are you protecting the royal family, the people, or Lana?"

Lu Li's words made Clem silent and also made the Second Prince fall into deep thought.

Finally, it was the second prince who mustered up the courage to speak first, "Dear Mr. Lu, if what you said is true, then I am willing to offer my loyalty. As long as it does not harm my people, I will do whatever you need me to do."

Lu Li looked at the Second Prince with admiration. For a powerless noble, the Second Prince was very courageous. "I don't need you to do anything for me. As I said, you just need to govern the country with Lana's assistance, stand on the side of the human camp, and advance and retreat with other countries."

The second prince was stunned after hearing Lu Li's words. He didn't expect Lu Li's goals to be so broad, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood.

Even the extremely powerful Silian Theocracy has surrendered to Lu Li, so it is only a matter of time before human countries such as the Bahas Empire and the Holy Kingdom surrender to Lu Li.

If what the other party said was true, he could swallow the hatred of killing his father and brother. After all, royal family affection was inherently cold. If he could only protect the country by being the king, he would even launch a coup when necessary and kill his father and brother with his own hands.

After all, his life ambition is to be a good king, to govern this extremely corrupt country well, and to give his people a better life.

"Is it... so careless?"

Clem, who was listening on the side, still seemed unable to accept it. He felt that this was too outrageous. How could the leadership of a country's political power be changed so easily?

He didn't understand politics, but he felt that as a soldier, it was a shame to watch the object of his loyalty being forced to surrender.

“Climb~”

Lana's voice was gentle and kind, but it made Climb shudder for some unknown reason.

Lana raised her hand and touched Climb's face with a gentle smile on her face. "As Mr. Lu said, he is actually a good man. The kingdom will become more and more prosperous in the future."

Climb began to doubt his life, and even felt that Princess Lana in front of him looked strange.

He could not see any humiliation, unwillingness or fear in the other person's smile, as if everything was so natural.

He didn't understand. Was he really wrong? Was his courage actually used in the wrong place?
Can the shame of the royal family be ignored as long as the country will become better? Can the sovereignty of the country be unimportant as long as the people can live a prosperous life?

He just felt his mind was a mess and hoped that the wise Princess Lana could guide him.

If only Mr. Gazef were here, perhaps he would be able to handle the situation better, instead of just shouting helplessly like himself.

"Regarding the protection of humanity...Mr. Lu..."

The second prince hesitated and spoke, "In fact, the kingdom is facing a difficult problem right now. The goblin army is invading the eastern border, and our border is at risk of being lost."

He had thought about it again and again before bringing up this matter, mainly because he wanted to test whether Lu Li really wanted to protect humans, or was just giving a random reason to control them.

Moreover, when the news of the Goblin army's invasion reached the capital, he was indeed worried. Rather than the risk of losing the border, he felt that there was a risk of the country being destroyed.

He didn't say it in a serious way, because he wanted to see how Lu Li would react.

The reason why he began to gradually accept being dominated by Lu Li and uniting with other countries was mainly because he began to feel that the world was in turmoil and a weak country like the kingdom might not be able to survive.

"As for the goblins, I killed them all when I passed by there before I came to the capital."

Lu Li said lightly, "So don't worry about that."

The Second Prince and Climb were very surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect that their intelligence channels were too slow. Had all the goblins been killed?
That’s an army of thousands of goblins!
Princess Lana, on the other hand, remained unmoved and praised with a smile, "For Mr. Lu's supreme power, this should be just a small matter. I am increasingly grateful that the kingdom has your protection."

Whether the Goblin army was completely wiped out was a matter of truth or not. Lana felt that Lu Li would not lie about such a thing and lose face for no reason.

Then she felt that it might be a good thing for the kingdom to be ruled by such people. In this way, many of her policies that were difficult to implement in the past could now be vigorously implemented.

“Ah~”

As they were talking, a charming female voice came from the door, "It seems there are secrets here that outsiders cannot know~"

Lana and the others turned around when they heard this and saw a beautiful woman with golden curly hair standing at the door. She was wearing a dress that was popular among noble ladies in the royal capital. The collar was very low, revealing her strong assets.

Looking at the bloody scene in the king's bedroom at this moment, she did not show the panic that a noble lady should have. She just smiled as if she was the master here.

"who!?"

Climb looked at the woman warily. In a different situation, he would have admired her beauty and shyly looked away.

This corridor had long been cleared out by Lu Li's intimidation, and the guards outside succumbed to Lu Li's power. Even Clem had to force his way in.

How could an ordinary noble lady come here and be so calm?

Out of his warrior instinct, Climb felt threatened and subconsciously protected Lana behind him, even though that might be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"What a courageous and beautiful lady you are! But has anyone ever told you that eavesdropping is a bad habit?"

When Lu Li saw the person coming, he smiled and stood up and walked towards Suo Liuxiang. He didn't expect that Bone King's people had already infiltrated the palace. Their efficiency was really high.

The Second Prince and Climb were on high alert, not knowing for a moment whether they should speak or not. It was only then that Lana gave them both a look, telling them to shut up.

Lana was smart and understood Lu Li's meaning at a glance. Since Lu Li stood up to deal with it personally, there was no room for them to interrupt, and they might even ruin Lu Li's good deeds and cause dissatisfaction from this supreme powerful man.

"Oh, sir, I'm just lost. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation."

Suo Liuxiang had a charming smile on her face, and her body was slightly leaning forward, showing off her cleavage. "But since I've heard it, can you tell me more~"
