Yuan Wuwei was silent for a long time before he finally spoke slowly:
"You may not know... the current royal family of Cangshen Nation... may have fallen into the control of others."
“?!”
Falling into someone else's control? !
What does this mean? !
Lu Lan's face showed just the right amount of shock, while his mind was frantically thinking.
If we had to pick the most powerful force on the Cangyuan Continent that everyone can accept, it would be the royal family of the Cangshen Kingdom.
But even for such a powerful and almost invincible force, Yuan Wuwei said that they are likely to fall into the control of others?
What is going on?
"Of course you won't believe it so easily if I tell you so simply."
Yuan Wuwei said leisurely:
"Although our Yuan family controls this Yuanling City, this city is essentially still the territory of Cangshen Kingdom, which means it is in the hands of those people in the royal family of Cangshen Kingdom."
"Although we call ourselves the 'Five Great Families,' we are in reality merely servants, working for others and helping to manage the people of a certain area."
"Originally, we were improving our own strength and secretly competing with the other four families, while at the same time obeying the orders of the royal family to manage the entire Yuanling City."
"Apart from some minor guidelines we came up with ourselves, the general direction given by the royal family has been basically flawless."
"But until twenty years ago..."
Yuan Wuwei paused, then continued:
"We still cannot disobey the orders handed down by the royal family, but after receiving them, we quickly discovered that there were many problems with the orders they issued twenty years ago."
“Once all of this is implemented, it is very likely that some bad things or some bad phenomena will gradually occur in the city.”
"But due to the royal majesty, we still implemented everything."
"Sure enough, it's pretty much as we suspected... Not long after that, disasters and tragedies frequently occurred in the city, resulting in many deaths."
"We were originally planning to thoroughly research how to quell these disturbances, but then another order arrived from the royal court... telling us to send more people out to search for the 'secret realm.'"
Secret realm?!
Lu Lan's expression changed.
The three major families in the city discovered an ancient secret realm, which has not yet been exposed to the Yuan family.
However, in that secret realm, an "alien enemy" is sealed!
If the secret realm that the royal family asked the Yuan family to find is similar to the Tiangu Secret Realm...
Does that mean... the royal family was controlled by "alien enemies" twenty years ago?!
Thinking of this, Lu Lan's expression couldn't help but become heavy.
If this is true, then his best choice now is not to go to the imperial city of Cang Shen Kingdom to attend the Medicine God Conference.
The imperial city now... is too dangerous.
Yuan Wuwei did not notice the abnormality in Lu Lan's expression and continued to speak:
"This order is also very strange... After the royal family asked us to find the secret realm, they let us explore it on our own. We can keep any rare treasures we find."
"Their only request is that we protect these secret places."
really!
After listening to this story, Lu Lan became more certain of his guess.
If the royal family had not fallen into the control of the "enemy from outside the sky", why would they order the five major families to protect those secret realms?
So there is only one reason - the "enemy from outside the sky" has taken control of the royal family of Cang Shen Kingdom!
But it is still unclear whether it is full control or partial control...
Yuan Wuwei probably doesn't know this either.
"Once this order comes, we will no longer have time to deal with the chaos. If we allow the city to develop on its own, it will sooner or later become increasingly chaotic and difficult to control."
"Fortunately, a smart kid came along later."
Yuan Wuwei smiled again at this moment:
"He proposed the Yuanling Martial Arts Conference, which attracted the attention of all the profound practitioners in the world who were interested in the profound way. It also shifted the attention of everyone in the city to this matter."
"The incidence of disasters in the city has been greatly reduced as a result, and the same is true for the other four major cities."
Lu Lan was slightly stunned.
He never imagined that the Yuanling Martial Arts Conference would play such an important role.
It’s no wonder that the Yuan family wants to continue holding the Yuanling Martial Arts Conference.
However, there was a question in Lu Lan's mind that had never been answered.
"Senior Yuan, why did you tell this matter... to me?"
Lu Lan couldn't help but ask.
Yuan Wuwei took a sip of tea, then suddenly stood up, was silent for a while, and slowly said:
"Because you... gave me hope."
