Chapter 139: Chapter 139

Exhaling a heavy breath, Jasper said with utmost solemnity. "Everyone, you have not truly witnessed that Senior’s real power, so it is only natural not to believe it. Let alone you, even I feel as if he is dreaming."

"But everyone, you all know what kind of person I am. Over these years, as the leader of the Southern clans, I have run myself ragged for our collective sake, my hair turning gray before I even left my middle years."

"On a matter that concerns the life and death of our Southern clans, how could I dare to boast and spout nonsense?!"

Seeing that a trace of doubt still lingered in the patriarchs’ eyes, Jasper suddenly grew anxious and cursed out loud.

"You fools! Ever since I became the leader of the Southern aristocratic clans, we have flourished under my guidance. How can the vision of fools like you possibly compare to mine?!"

"Furthermore, the Auric clan shares in the collective glory and ruin of all your clans. If I did not have absolute certainty, would I completely disregard the safety of the Auric clan?!"

Seeing Jasper lose his composure so violently, the doubts in the eyes of the Southern patriarchs slowly dissipated, and they hurriedly offered apologetic smiles.

"Brother Jasper, it’s not that we don’t believe you, but what you said is truly too shocking. How can you expect us to easily believe it?!"

"That’s right, Brother Jasper. You can’t blame us this time. Even the young Supremes recorded in the ancient texts might not possess such terrifying strength while still in the Mortal Supreme realm!"

"Brother Jasper is right, we all share in glory and ruin. It was simply us lacking in experience and vision."

Seeing the Southern clan patriarchs repeatedly apologizing, Jasper did not hold it against them any further, and instead shifted the conversation to discussing their specific strategic preparations.

Over the next few days, the entire capital remained peaceful on the surface, but in the shadows, dark undercurrents were rapidly surging.

After the great war, the originally desolate capital was now suddenly filled with unfamiliar faces. Every single day, a continuous stream of strangers poured into the city.

A few days ago, Jasper had held a discussion with the patriarchs of the Southern aristocratic clans in that side hall of the Silver Willow Imperial Palace.

They agreed to secretly mobilize the forces of their respective clans, preparing to covertly coordinate with Adam to seize the capital and annihilate the South-Subduing King lineage’s forces in the royal court in one fell swoop.

These unfamiliar faces appearing in the capital over the past few days were exactly that.

The Southern clans were secretly accumulating their power, preparing to deal a thunderous strike to the South-Subduing King lineage.

Silver Willow Imperial Palace, within a main hall.

Listening to the continuous reports from his subordinates, the South-Subduing King flew into a furious rage, he angrily scolded the Night Patrol Envoy kneeling on the floor.

"Trash! A bunch of trash! What exactly does your Night Patrol Bureau do for a living?! With so many unfamiliar faces appearing in the capital, such a highly suspicious matter, why are you only reporting it now?!"

The capital was of the utmost importance, especially having just gone through a great war.

The remnants of the Silver Willow Imperial Family stirring up trouble was already giving him a massive headache.

Not long ago, he had expended an unknown amount of effort to finally clean up some remnants of the previous dynasty, bringing a modicum of stability to the capital. He never expected another unexpected turn today.

With so many strangers of unknown origins flooding in, who knew if they were friend or foe? The newly reborn Silver Willow capital was in desperate need of stability and simply could not withstand even the slightest setback.

Hearing the severe reprimand, the Night Patrol Envoy kneeling in the center of the hall panicked. He kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy, his words filled with grievance.

"Spare my life, Your Highness! But you truly cannot blame my Night Patrol Bureau for this! My Bureau Chief already submitted a memorial regarding this suspicious matter three days ago. Was Your Highness not aware?!"

"What did you say?! Your Night Patrol Bureau reported this to me long ago?!"

The Night Patrol Envoy’s words left the South-Subduing King somewhat stunned.

A trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes as he vaguely realized something was fishy about this matter.

He glanced at the Eunuch Scribe beside him, signaling him to go to the Grand Secretariat to investigate.

About an hour later, the Eunuch Scribe returned from the Grand Secretariat. He leaned in and whispered a few words into the South-Subduing King’s ear, instantly sending his anger shooting straight to the roof of his skull.

"What did you say?! This memorial was actually withheld by Jasper?!"

The South-Subduing King’s expression was extremely ugly, he never expected that the unfamiliar faces continuously appearing in the capital were actually connected to the Southern aristocratic clans.

What exactly are they trying to do, and what is their objective? A trace of apprehension flashed in his eyes, his heart already on high alert.

The entirety of the Silver Willow dynasty was boundlessly vast. Across its ten-thousand-mile territory, there were ten thousand different customs.

The Southern Circuit, ever since the first Emperor founded the dynasty, had always been its most affluent and prosperous region.

Those major Southern aristocratic clans had operated there for a full millennium, accumulating unfathomable resources.

For a thousand years, they had lain dormant in the Southern Circuit, their true depth completely unknown to outsiders.

It was only during this campaign to assist Oswin that the South-Subduing King finally saw the true foundation of the Southern clans clearly.

In just a short month, they organized an army of a hundred thousand.

The South-Subduing King had always been extremely wary of the Southern clans’ foundation. Ever since overthrowing the Silver Willow Imperial Family, he had been dedicated to suppressing them.

If the Southern clans were given any breathing room, he feared it would not take many years for them to convert their millennium of accumulated foundation into hard power.

"That is correct, Your Highness. I asked the Grand Secretaries in the Grand Secretariat who belong to us. Besides Jasper, the rest all said they had never seen that memorial."
