Hearing Gu Liyan's words, which even carried a hint of coquettishness, Li Hao's expression immediately became extremely varied.
Mo Han said irritably, "Mo Chen sensed that your life force had been cut off and told me, so the two of us rushed over immediately. Do you think you're still alive because you're lucky?"
Gu Liyan was stunned. "How come..."
“Brother Gu, actually, when we first got back yesterday, your breathing was already a bit weak. Not long after, your body got cold and then you stopped breathing,” Li Hao said weakly.
Gu Liyan was dumbfounded. Had he died once? But he had no idea. It was as if he had taken a long nap and woken up unable to distinguish between day and night.
Mo Chen glanced at Li Hao and said, "You go out first. The three of us brothers have something to talk about."
Li Hao blinked, nodded, and obediently walked out.
Gu Liyan smiled and shook his head. The two of them were even more skilled than him, and Li Hao could see that, so he didn't dare to complain at all.
"The reason we both came here this time, besides rescuing you, is also to tell you that the mission you took on has been upgraded," Mo Han said with a solemn expression.
Mo Chen nodded. The thought of not being able to receive Gu Liyan's contact at that time made him uneasy. He hurriedly told Mo Han, who used his methods to predict Gu Liyan's fate in this world. Unexpectedly, there was a third force from the Nine Springs Realm among these three forces.
The rules of the Nine Springs Realm generally prohibit anyone from establishing their own power in any realm, but there are exceptions, namely the third power.
The third force consists of the Punishers, or their agents who cultivate and recruit members for the New World. Generally speaking, a New World will have three to five such new members.
However, Mo Han discovered that this world was home to a total of one hundred third forces, and they were all in the Warrior Kingdom, where they were raising their offspring!
After Mo Han told Gu Liyan the news, Gu Liyan was shocked. "So, the reason why the world is able to have three kingdoms is because there are people like them keeping things in check?"
“That’s right, you can understand it that way.” Mo Han nodded. “Otherwise, with the current fighting power of the Samurai Kingdom, they would be able to flatten any corner of this world!”
“However, due to the current situation, the problem of isolationism in this world is too serious, and unification is necessary, so they are… difficult to deal with.” Mo Han frowned as he said this. “They are also considered half of the Nine Springs Realm, and they even have the Nine Springs Token. If we don’t handle it well, they have the right to monitor and report the actions of us sanctioners.”
"How do they have the right?" Gu Liyan asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Heh, with so many of them, it's like an election ballot. Although each person's weight is light, the collective power is no less than that of a realm lord," Mo Chen said with some apprehension.
Gu Liyan frowned and asked in confusion, "Then... how did they get together?"
Mo Han and Mo Chen exchanged a glance and both shook their heads.
