"Lin Yu, I've convinced my father. He plans to join me in dealing with Kali!"
Lacey turned around and told Lin Yu the good news.
Lin Yu didn't seem very excited; instead, he frowned.
Having cultivated to the level of a Human Emperor, one possesses the ability to discern people's character; the old king's appearance did not suggest a resolute or steadfast individual.
Furthermore, to survive between Cali and the various warlords, this person must be a man who knows how to play both sides and generally wouldn't gamble everything.
However, Lin Yu didn't say anything.
The best solution to anything is to let nature take its course.
Moreover, with his cultivation level, he is not afraid of any storms.
Furthermore, without conflict, nothing will progress.
He wouldn't stay in the Mayan kingdom for long, but he hoped things would progress quickly.
Two days later.
News came from the royal palace.
Lai Xi excitedly found Lin Yu.
"Lin Yu, my father has already prepared a plan! He plans to hold a investiture banquet, inviting Kali and his men together, and using the investiture as an opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop! This time, I plan to bring all the assassins with me to fully cooperate with my father! This is our only chance; success or failure hinges on this!"
A investiture banquet?
Lin Yu frowned. "Isn't Kali already a duke?"
Lacey nodded. "He is indeed a duke, but this time my father is going to grant him the title of prince!"
"A king?"
“Yes, a noble title is almost the same as royalty, practically equal. Kali will definitely not give up this empty title; he will certainly accept the invitation to the investiture banquet! Moreover, his subordinates have also been rewarded, so they will definitely not be absent from the banquet. At that time, we can catch them all in one fell swoop!”
Seeing Lacey's excited expression, Lin Yu shook his head helplessly.
Things are probably not as simple as you think, girl.
Lin Yu sighed inwardly, but said nothing more.
The venue for the investiture banquet was in Shiva Grove, east of the Mayan capital.
This place was originally a place of worship, and only some important events were held here.
The next morning.
Lacey, accompanied by three hundred elite warriors, arrived at Shiva Grove with Lin Yu and deployed his forces on the outskirts.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the members of the royal family arrived one after another.
King Lewandowski and Queen Sisja arrived late.
"Father, what's going on? It's already this late, why haven't Kali and the others arrived yet?"
Lacey emerged from the woods, looking surprised.
"They won't come!"
Lewandowski gave a cold laugh.
Lacey frowned. "Father, what do you mean by that?"
"Lassie, your father is only doing this for your own good. I hope you won't blame him!" Queen Sia walked over and took Lassie's hand, her eyes red.
A sense of foreboding washed over Lacey, and she quickly looked at her father. "Father, what do you mean by this? Didn't we agree to deal with Kali?"
"Nonsense!" Lewandowski retorted. "What kind of ability does Nacali have? He's a duke now, and he also holds military power. For our royal family to oppose him is like an egg hitting a rock! How could I possibly go after him!"
"Then why..."
"Kali said that if our royal family is to survive, you must marry him!"
As Lewandowski spoke, he turned to look at Lin Yu beside him and said coldly, "And he, too, must die!"
"What?!" Lacey couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes, feeling incredulous.
At that moment, she seemed to understand everything.
It turns out that Lewandowski never intended to target Cali; his target was his own daughter. It was all just a scheme of his!
"Father, I never imagined you would scheme against me..."
Upon learning the truth, Lacey's tears welled up instantly.
She felt a sharp pain in her heart!
For the first time in my life, I experienced the taste of betrayal by my own family.
well!
Lin Yu sighed inwardly.
In fact, he had expected it long ago.
Where would a king, barely clinging to life, find the courage to fight against warlords?
Unexpectedly, they really came for him!
"Father, I will never allow you to harm Lin Yu!"
Lacey broke free from her mother's grasp and came to Lin Yu, shielding him behind her.
"Someone come here!"
She put two fingers to her mouth and whistled, a signal she left for her three hundred assassins. Once they heard the whistle, they would rush out immediately.
Surprisingly, after the whistle was sounded, the woods on both sides were unusually quiet, and no one rushed out.
Lacey's beautiful eyes widened immediately as she looked at Lewandowski.
Levan chuckled and said calmly, "Daughter, do you think you can accomplish anything with just three hundred men? And do you think your actions of raising assassins will escape the Duke of Cali's notice?"
Splash!
Before Lacey could react, a fully armed team suddenly rushed out of the forest.
These people were clad in silver armor, exuding an imposing aura, and each of them held a laser gun!
There were at least a thousand people!
With so many people wielding laser guns, how could Lacey's three hundred assassins dare to make any rash moves?
"Kali's Silver Armor Guards!"
Lacey's pupils couldn't help but tremble.
She immediately recognized that these silver-armored guards were the elite, regular troops under Kali's command.
Her assassins, let alone only three hundred, even if they numbered three thousand, would be nothing but a joke compared to others.
"Father, do you really want to do this...?"
Lacey's delicate body swayed precariously, and she felt utterly hopeless.
I never expected my father to be so spineless, actually teaming up with Kali to deal with his own daughter.
"Ah, Lacey, don't blame your father. Only in this way can we preserve our royal family! You are the king's daughter. You were born with a mission and are destined to sacrifice for the country!" Lewandowski said with a look of guilt and heartache.
"I am willing to sacrifice myself!"
Lacey couldn't help but scream, "But not in such a humiliating way! As royalty, we should have our own dignity, not live by the whims of others!"
"Lewandowski, you are not fit to be a king! You are even less fit to be my father!"
"You! How dare you!"
Lewandowski was naturally furious after being verbally abused by his own daughter.
"Hmph! No matter what you say, this brat must die today! This is our royal family's explanation to Duke Cali!"
Whoosh!
Lewandowski raised his hand, and all the laser guns were raised, pointing at Lin Yu.
Countless red dots were fixed on Lin Yu.
If he dares to make any rash moves, he will be riddled with bullets in the next second!
"Hmph! Young man, don't blame me! You brought this on yourself!"
Lewandowski glanced at Lin Yu and said calmly, "From the moment you provoked Kali, this outcome was destined! Even if I didn't kill you, you would have died at Kali's hands sooner or later! So, for the sake of our royal family, we have no choice but to sacrifice you!"
"No, no! I won't let you kill him!"
Lewandowski turned around and hugged Lin Yu tightly, covering him up completely.
Even if she were to die, she would die with Lin Yu!
