Ancestor Above-Novel2

349 Double agent

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed since the White ghouls went south.

This year, the resistance Army of Xue state was strong and the defense of the entire defense line was in good condition. The forward line of defense was set up at the North of Jibei, Yuyang, and Liao County. It was impregnable with five gold core realm experts guarding it. It was almost impossible for a large group of white ghouls to break through the defense line. They would either be badly injured or be detected in advance and then annihilated.

However, even though the situation was much better than in previous years, no one felt that it would be too easy.

The real challenge hadn’t come yet. Not a single fourth-rank white ghost emperor had appeared yet.

He wondered how many would come this year.

Naturally, this matter had little to do with pan guodun.

He was only an initial enlightenment stage cultivator. The level four white ghost emperor was something the Golden core cultivators above had to consider. It had little to do with him, an initial enlightenment stage cultivator.

Pan guodun was a cultivator from the Ji Prefecture. His family, the Huan Tong pan family, was a family of official officials, and their ancestors were also one of the nine ministers. Even now, the pan family had three initial enlightenment cultivators.

The pan family couldn’t be compared to the four great families, but it was still under the Imperial court’s system. Among the second and third tier families, it was developing quite well.

Pan guodun was strong enough and had the help of his family, so he was quickly appointed as the governor of Weiyang County.

And in this storm of change of dynasties, the pan family’s position was considered to be more firm in leaning towards the Lu family.

However, pan guodun himself was a loyal person. He was furious about the abdication. As the governor of the Ji Province, pan guodun’s position in the Imperial court was not low. He was not the kind of useless Governor who was sent to the Feiyun province or other places beyond the Imperial court’s control. He was a proper local official.

Just three months after the abdication ceremony, pan guodun had submitted a Memorial to the Lu Corporation and attacked it in public. This matter naturally caused the central government to be furious. However, as the pan family was biased towards the Lu family, after the interceding of various parties, pan guodun was not removed from his position. Instead, he was stripped of his position as the governor and allowed to serve as the commander of the soldiers of Weiyang County. He would only be responsible for training the soldiers and would be stripped of all government affairs.

Even so, pan guodun did not behave himself. Although he didn’t say anything bad in public, he mentioned his dissatisfaction with the Lu family in his private chats with many people and felt ashamed that the pan family had sided with the Lu family so quickly. Some people had even seen him and his own brother, who was the leading dog in the pan family’s officialdom and one of the newly appointed nine ministers, had a fierce quarrel.

This person’s position could be seen.

As the disobedient one, he naturally led the soldiers of Weiyang County and thousands of cultivators to xuezhou to provide support under the Imperial court’s orders.

When faced with the transfer order, he had shirked it at first, but later on, he had no choice. If he was forced to not come, it would be treason, and his family would want to remove him from the list. Under pressure from many sides, he had no choice but to come. He could only lead the team and go.

Of course, all of this was just on the surface. historical

Under all this external appearance, he had actually entered the Jinyiwei long ago. All these anti-Lu family actions were all an act.

Earlier, as the head of Great Yan’s brocade guard, Lu Wenen had found out some unusual problems in the country. It was as if there was a hand in the dark that was controlling the local powers of Ji Prefecture and Jin Prefecture, making it difficult for the Imperial court to control them.

However, when Great Yan’s brocade guards were investigating, they were still faced with a lot of difficulties. The clues they found were relatively few, and the other party seemed to have some roots in various places. Even if they occasionally found some clues, the clues would always be broken, and they could only catch some useless nobodies, and often, when those white flames were burned, it was very effective to silence people.

The embroidered uniform guards knew that the faceless society was secretly opposing the new imperial court. This group was once an underground organization that li Shiwen had secretly supported and established in order for him to break through to the materialization realm. Now, they had become the ghosts of the Li Dynasty, causing trouble everywhere.

Hence, Lu Wenen contacted the pan family, and after some discussion, the role of pan guodun was decided.

This was bait. The embroidered uniform guards wanted to lure the faceless society out as much as possible.

However, the effect was not good.

Pan guodun had been tested by some strangers a few times and had also passed on the information to the embroidered uniform guards. However, after much analysis, the embroidered uniform guards also believed that this was probably a counter-probe by the faceless society. It was possible that the people who came were not the true core figures of the faceless society. Thus, they did not dare to act rashly, in case they inadvertently alerted the enemy.

And this was a great opportunity.

At that time, when pan guodun had received the Imperial court’s order to head north to Xue province, he had put on a show as usual and acted as if he was very unhappy. However, it was also during this period of time that he received news from someone who had once contacted him, hoping that he could lead the Army into battle.

This made him and the Jinyiwei behind him vigilant.

That should be the faceless society’s intention. However, the faceless society should be full of malice towards the White ghouls in the North. They probably wanted the White ghouls to go south, break through the Xue state’s defense line, rush to the Feiyun state, and cause chaos in the Lu family’s base camp. They should be very opposed to the idea of the Lu clan transferring the Imperial court’s military forces to the North to assist.

But if he thought deeper into it, what if pan guodun’s hatred for the Lu family wasn’t an act but real? What if a large number of the Imperial court’s local soldiers and the noble families “private soldiers had been secretly contacted by the faceless society and had even cooperated with their actions?

Then were the 20000 reinforcements from the Imperial court really reinforcements? Could this be a huge, hidden bomb?

He couldn’t afford to be careless in this matter.

On the other hand, this was also a good opportunity to catch the tail of the faceless society.

In the past few years, the faceless society’s operations in the various provinces had been very, very secretive. They had left very few traces. Moreover, their relationships in various provinces were complicated, making them difficult to catch. And this time, if their goal was really to destroy the Xue state’s defense line and disrupt the Lu clan’s Foundation in the North, it would definitely be their first major operation in the past few years.

Therefore, pan guodun also received a request from the embroidered uniform guards. Follow the Army North and report the faceless society’s situation at all times. In addition to this, he also needed to investigate how many of the Imperial court’s troops in the North were actually members of the faceless society or disgruntled members who had sided with the faceless society.

In the past six months, he had been leading the Army of cultivators at the Xue state defense line and fighting the White ghouls while investigating.

He wasn’t alone. The faceless society had also mixed in some of the 20000 cultivators from the Imperial court that were heading north. How could the embroidered uniform guards not have any?
