So he invited Garrett and his party into the castle hall as the host and asked the servants to serve them fruits and drinks.

The atmosphere seemed to be relaxed, but in fact it was not.

After a while, Garrett spoke again: "Ronin, what exactly will it take for you to hand over Sophia and let me take her back for interrogation?"

Jesus didn't say anything, but instead rubbed the porcelain cup in his hand.

He had a curious personality, and this special cup aroused his interest. As for the negotiation between Ronin and Garrett, he seemed more like an outsider at the moment.

In fact, for Jesus, he had already succeeded as long as he could sow discord between the Wushan Territory and the royal family, create a rift, and lay the seeds for future instability.

Roning peeled a fresh grape and ate it in one bite. The quality of these fruits in the castle orchard was very good.

"Your Highness, although I invited you all to come in and sit down, it was only out of courtesy and respect for the royal family, but some things cannot be resolved through negotiation."

Luo Ning's voice was steady and firm. "This kind of nonsense slander involves the honor of Wushanbao and my dignity. I cannot give in at all! Unless His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can provide solid evidence to prove that Sophia is involved in this matter, I will not hand her over to anyone."

Garrett's face became increasingly gloomy. He didn't expect Roning to be so tough.

Although he was angry in his heart, he also knew that it was not appropriate to take action at this moment.

After all, the strength of the opponent's lineup exceeded his expectations, and it involved the face of both Wushan Fort and the royal family. If a fight really broke out, things would probably get out of control.

Jesus sneered at this time: "Garrett, as the crown prince, you don't have any dignity at all? Haha, a baron of a kingdom, who is about to become your brother-in-law, has become so arrogant..."

“That’s enough!”

Garrett stood up suddenly, "In that case, Broll, you should report the situation here to your father, the king!"

He snorted coldly, then stood up and left the hall. His five men followed him immediately.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jesus hurried to follow, but was stopped by Redal.

"What do you mean, killing my subjects wasn't enough, now you want to kill me too?"

Garrett paused, turned around and glanced at Rydar, then turned his angry gaze to Ronin: "Don't go too far, and don't think I won't do anything to you!"

Roning smiled slightly, raised his hand and waved, signaling Redal to let Jesus go.

Leaving Jesus behind means just leaving behind a gold-level Soul Knight.

As long as Mephisto is not caught, killing a golden knight like this will not only have no effect, but will also irritate Garrett who is on the verge of exploding.

Rydal made way, Jesus sneered, then strode after Garrett and walked out.

In the hall, only Broll was left with a wry smile on his face.

"Luo Ning, you may not know the Crown Prince's temper. No one has ever been so disrespectful to him."

Luo Ning spread his hands: "I have no choice."

Broll sighed and looked outside the door. Jesus and the others had already boarded the griffin and flew away from the castle.

"Broll is a Soul Witch Knight, right? And in the town of Tails, I didn't see any bodies there, so those you killed were all Soul Witch Knights?"

Roning smiled and sat down again. "Deputy Captain, we have been living in Shore City recently and have never been to the town of Tars."

"Well……"

Broll was stunned for a moment, then realized that his identity made the other party defensive, and sighed helplessly.

"Okay, I'm being presumptuous."

He also stood up and said, "Garett has gone south to the border, and I have returned to Golden Feather City to report. I don't know what the situation of the royal family and Wushan Fort is like, but at least there will be no problem this year."

"Well, goodbye!" Luo Ning stood up to see him off.

After everyone left, Sophia said apologetically, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"Sir, when are we going to attack Moonlight Valley?"

Riedal has asked this question many times in a row, "Keeping them here will only cause more innocent people to suffer."

Luo Ning frowned slightly, he was also thinking about this question.

He and Sophia got into so much trouble when they launched a sneak attack. If they attacked Moonlight Valley openly, then all these excuses like today would be useless.

As for only letting people above the Meteor level to attack secretly, how could they take down such a huge Moon Valley with just a few people? Luo Ning pondered for a moment, "I will go to Wushan Castle to ask the old man what he means. Before that, you should focus on training. Form the Sixth and Seventh Knights as soon as possible, and pass on the experience brought by Sophia and others as soon as possible to ensure that the losses are reduced after the war."

After all, he has Wushan Fort behind him, so he has to ask Lu Lans for his opinion.

At this time, two figures walked in quickly. It was Petro and Harmon who returned to the castle.

Both of their war horses were of excellent quality, but they were still much slower than griffins.

If we capture Moonlight Valley and take all of Jesus' griffins, we can give one to Sophia and the others.

"Why are you back?" Sophia asked.

Petro and Harmon explained it briefly, and the general meaning was that they were worried about Sofia's safety and rushed back.

After all, in their hearts, Sofia's safety comes first, and then other things.

Luo Ning frowned slightly, "You don't believe me?"

Well……

Petro and Harmon were both a little embarrassed. The former explained: "We didn't mean it that way. It's just that... we didn't think too much about it at the time."

Ridar said in a serious tone, "Your current responsibility is to ensure the safety of the border, but you left without warning, leaving behind a huge hidden danger. If this team of griffins is followed by a group of enemies, our camp will be in danger of being overwhelmed!"

He said in a deep voice: "If you were my subordinates, you would be punished!"

Petro shrank his neck, and Harmon looked very embarrassed.

Although they were concerned about Sofia's safety, they had to admit that what Redar said was very likely to happen.

Luo Ning smiled and said, "Rydar has always been serious, so you don't have to take it to heart."

He looked at Rydar and added, "After all, Petro and the others have just arrived from the Crescent Continent and have not yet adapted to their current identities and responsibilities. You don't have to be too strict with them."

"No, it is necessary to make a serious request!"

Sophia was the one who spoke. She said to Petro and Harmon seriously, "Since you have been assigned as Redar's assistants, you must obey his command in everything. Leaving the battlefield without receiving the transfer order is equivalent to abandoning the city and the land. You are guilty of a serious crime!"

"Don't think that we can be careless just because there are fewer strong men here. Don't forget, we are not facing ordinary people, but the Wuhun Clan! We just moved the battlefield to Orlant, and our enemy has not changed!"

Petro and Harmon both lowered their heads, like students being reprimanded by their teacher.

Sophia's tone softened a little, and she said softly, "Don't worry, our hero, the Sun Knight Rydar, is here. My safety is guaranteed."

"Understood, Your Highness!"

The two men touched their chests and bowed, "We were wrong in this matter, and we are willing to accept the punishment."

Luo Ning patted the two men on the shoulders and said, "Alright, there's no need to punish them. If you two don't mind being tired, go back to the defense line as soon as possible to prevent them from being disappointed and doing something extreme."

"yes!"

Petro and Harmon said seriously, then nodded to Rydar and strode out of the hall.

Luo Ning also walked outside, "I also need to go to Wushan Fort to discuss things with Grandpa. Riedal, I'll leave the matters here to you."

"Don't worry, sir!" (End of this chapter)
