Camilla is Thomas's lingering nightmare! No matter how much Thomas denies it in his heart, it can't change this indisputable fact!

After all these years, Thomas thought he had forgotten Camilla's dotted finger on his head. But when he determined that Camilla was the one who humiliated him, he found that when facing Camilla as a woman, he would have an irrepressible sense of inferiority and fear. When Camilla was by Li Zijun's side, Thomas didn't even have the courage to get close to the eldest princess's mansion! After realizing his timidity, Thomas's desire to improve his strength quickly became stronger!

So, after confirming that Camilla had left Khauerfekan, Thomas immediately sneaked into the Eldest Princess's mansion. It was only the fear in his heart that made Thomas worry that Camilla was just as false as himself. It wasn't until today that Thomas heard that Camilla was not present at the caravan's early celebration that he had the audacity to sneak out of the caravan's quarters. Once again, confirming that Camilla was not here, Thomas began to reassure Li Zijun from a distance.

Watching the members of the caravan take turns toasting Edlaide and Colby, Thomas couldn't help but hope that they would get drunk quickly, so that he might be able to find a little clue about Edlaide's cultivation.

But to Thomas's disappointment, although Colby was quickly defeated, Edlaide was a strong man at the wine table. Zuihou, when all the members of the caravan were shaking, Li Zijun could still stand there, which made Thomas feel incredible and helpless at the same time.

When Thomas accepted Heller's invitation, he promised that he would never do anything to Edlaide in advance, or even let Edlaide find out about his existence. Although Thomas was full of illusions about getting Edlaide's cultivation, he didn't dare to easily destroy Heller's overall jihua. Therefore, while Edlaide remained sober, Thomas had to give up the idea of quietly approaching Edlaide.

It's just that Thomas is also a persistent guy, and after the drinking party, he unwillingly followed Li Zijun to the courtyard where they lived.

In order not to affect Heller's Jihua, Thomas ensured the distance between himself and Li Zijun to the greatest extent, and this caution allowed him to avoid Audrey's eyes.

A safe enough distance also allowed Thomas to see Audrey's lightning departure, and he couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself that he didn't act impulsively, otherwise he would be humiliated again.

If Audrey was Li Zijun's enemy, it would not be possible for the room to be so peaceful, which also made Thomas quickly distinguish Audrey's cultivation level at the same time, but also associated with her true identity. Thomas soon understood that Audrey was the greatest guarantee of the Dongyu Empire's safety to Edlaide!

Thomas had heard of the agreement between the Saints, but he knew better how the Saints had chosen to abide by it. If he had really made a move on Edlaide just now, Audrey would definitely clean him up under the pretext of self-defense, and no one would ever blame Audrey afterwards. With this thought, Thomas was even more afraid to approach Colby's room, and he missed the thrilling battle between Li Zijun and the evil spirit fetus!

Gradually, Thomas became a little impatient, and he was about to leave, when Li Zijun, who was trying to soothe his mood, finally walked out of the room. Just at a glance, Thomas saw the changes in Li Zijun, and witnessed the speed at which Li Zijun became stronger, and Thomas's heart was red and his eyes were hot!

Immediately Thomas saw the scene of Li Zijun and Catherine joking, Li Zijun's actions were not affected in the slightest in such a dim situation, and his performance surprised Thomas again!

Even Thomas had just reached the skill of night vision, and he didn't expect Li Zijun to have already improved to this level. And Li Zijun's strange body style made Thomas even more intoxicated, and he suddenly found that Li Zijun was no longer as easy to deal with as he imagined.

Knowing everything, Thomas no longer had a reason to stay, and he turned around and secretly left. After all, Thomas's strength is far above Li Zijun, and his departure did not make Li Zijun, who was still kissing, any alarm!

Thomas returned to Jeffrey's room, and he was still embarrassed when he recalled Li Zijun's performance, so he became even more curious about Li Zijun's mysterious cultivation method!

"Edlaide is definitely the person I am looking for, his cultivation method is even more amazing than I imagined! There is one thing that you may not believe if you say it, if Bradley fights Edlaide again, he may not be able to take any advantage! Especially in the dim environment, Bradley has almost no chance of defeating Edlaide!" Hearing Jeffrey's question, Thomas said with emotion. Because of this discovery, Thomas felt that he couldn't let Li Zijun leave easily.

"Master, you're not kidding me, are you? Actually, I've always thought that the fact that he and Bradley were both defeated by the Sword Master was a rumor! Bradley is not ranked low in the sequence of Imperial Saint Rank masters, and even when I face him, I don't have any certainty of victory! And Edley should not be an adult, but you say that he already has the strength to defeat Bradley Sword Master, will you think too highly of him!?"

"Jeffrey, with your skills, how far can you see in the pre-dawn night?"

"It's about twenty meters!, but does that have anything to do with whether Edlaide can defeat Bradley Juggernaut?" Jeffrey didn't understand that Master Weishenme would suddenly bring up this unrelated question.

"All things being equal, how far do you think Bradley can see?"

"Even if he is a little stronger than me, he won't be too much, I don't think he's more than thirty meters at most!"

"Do you know how far Edlaide can see? within his line of sight! He can see everything in sight in that darkness, do you think Bradley can do that?" Don't say that Jeffrey doubted, even Thomas himself thought it was incredible when he said it!

"Within sight, Master, you have just reached this level, how can he do it too!" asked Jeffrey with a look of disbelief.

"From what I've observed, Edlaide's skills aren't as good as you or Bradley, but he's just able to see at night, and to be honest, I don't know how he did it!"

"Not only that, but I also saw him joking with his men, who are supposed to be assassins at the level of a great swordsman. But such a character, she couldn't hear Edlaide's approaching voice, Edlaide could easily touch her cheek! Do you think it is possible for you or Bradley to do this? You know, Edlaide's subordinate is also a figure at the peak of the Great Swordsman!"

"You're saying he's also very subtle?"

"It's subtle, it's weird! It's fine to fight him during the day, but if he meets you or Bradley in the dark of night, how many chances do you think you'll have?"

Hearing Thomas's analysis, Jeffrey's face also changed slightly!

"I saw a person at Li Zijun's place just now!"

"Who?" Seeing Thomas's expression so solemn, Jeffrey immediately felt a strong curiosity in his heart.

"She's supposed to be a magician, and the way she left reminded me of someone!

"What?" Jeffrey's eyes widened in shock.

She talked to Edlaide in the room for a while, and then left alone. It didn't take long for Edlaide to come out of the room again, and he seemed to be a completely different person! I think Edlaide's ascension must have a lot to do with Audrey, and I even suspect that she is the real master of Edlaide. Audrey is the oldest Dharma Saint in the Youlan Continent, and only she can create a miracle like Edlaide!" Thomas thought he had found Li Zijun's secret, and said with certainty.

"If that's the case, are you still going to help Heller Bixia capture Edlaide? As far as I know, although Audrey laughs at life and looks kind on the surface, she is actually very similar to Edlaide, and both are reciprocated personalities. Especially her habit of protecting her shortcomings, but she is very famous in the entire Blue Continent! With Edlaide's current results, she must be her most proud disciple, will she let us capture her apprentice? Even if we borrow the advantage in numbers, she probably won't let us go easily afterwards!" Jeffrey was already worried about Thomas when he heard Audrey's name.

"You don't have to worry about this for the time being! The Saints have a pact: they will not use magic in the capital at will, otherwise they will be besieged by all the Saints. I guess she'll only pick up Edlaide outside the city, and I'll keep Edlaide inside the city as much as possible, so she won't be able to do anything with me for a while. As long as Edlaide tells him his cultivation method, I will never hurt him easily, and I will even send him back to the Dongyu Empire safely. After that, I will leave the Monlin Empire and hide, and I don't believe that Audrey will be able to find me!" Thomas's tone was full of helplessness and anger.

Geoffrey, who knew his master very well, couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness when he heard Thomas's words! For so many years, Thomas has been burdened with the false name of a 'Monlin's No. 1 Master', but he knows that there is a character like Lynn above him, which makes Thomas always have a feeling of difficulty breathing!

Originally, Thomas thought that there was not much gap between himself and Ryan, but after Camilla's battle, he saw his gap clearly!

Although Thomas has also made some progress in recent years, it is too far from what he imagined. It can be said that Edlaide has become, Thomas's only hope for his own breakthrough, for this hope, even if Thomas pays a big price, he will not give up easily!

Jeffrey, who was clear about this, sighed secretly, and he no longer had the luxury of hoping to change his master's mind!

"Master, since the Dongyu Empire has sent Audrey, it's hard to guarantee that they won't send other masters, so you have to be very careful when the time comes!" Jeffrey couldn't help but remind.

"Don't worry! Heller Bixia told me that the direction of Edlaide's breakthrough must be the South Gate. And my purpose is only him, I believe it will not be too difficult!As long as Master can successfully obtain the secret method of Edlaide's cultivation this time, he will never hesitate to teach it to you!" Thomas felt Geoffrey's concern, and he nodded to Geoffrey.

"Master, what are you going to do if the direction of Edlaide's breakthrough is not the South Gate?"

"If that's the case, it can only be regarded as Edlaide's life! You must remember that if Edlaide chooses to break through in the direction of your defense, try not to fight him directly, let alone try to hold him back for me! Edlaide is definitely a dangerous guy, you have a big family, there is no need to provoke that evil star! And unless it is a last resort, you should try not to hurt him, as long as he lives, we still have a chance!" Thomas explained very solemnly to Jeffrey.

Jeffrey also felt the master's good intentions, and in desperation, he could only nod yes.

It was destined to be a busy morning, and just as Thomas was secretly consulting Jeffrey, Gavin appeared at General Yule's door early.

Gavin didn't want to bother his father so early, and Yule had been suffering from insomnia until the last few days. But even so, once Yule is woken up, there is no way to go back to sleep. Gavin wanted to wait until his father woke up naturally, but the importance of Jihua in his hand made it impossible for him to sit in his room and wait, so he had to wait outside the door of his father's bedroom.

The jihua book in Gavin's hand was sent by Li Zijun last night, and a map of the city defense of Hor Fakan was attached to this jihua book. Gavin was originally dissatisfied with Li Zijun's practice of modifying Jihua before the action, and after studying the new Jihua with reference to the city defense map, he even had the urge to scold his mother! In his opinion, Li Zijun's new Jihua is simply putting the cart before the horse, completely messing up the previous arrangement, not to mention, and paying a greater investment and price. That's why he had to show up outside his father's door early in the morning, hoping that his father would be able to persuade Li Zijun to carry out the original jihua.

"Is it Gavin, come in if there's anything!" Gavin finally woke Yule from his repeated pacing, and Yule spoke in the room.

Gavin heard his father's voice as if he had been pardoned, pushed open the door and walked in. Yule had been living alone since Gavin's mother died, and Gavin had less scruples about going in and out of his father's room.

"Father, this is the new Jihua sent by the Marquis of Edlaide last night, he asks you to help correct it!" Gavin didn't have time to wait for Yule to get dressed, and had already handed the Jihua book and the city defense map to Yule.

Seeing Gavin's anxious appearance, Yule shook his head with a wry smile, it seems that it will take some time for Gavin to keep his face from changing when he encounters trouble! Yule couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Immediately, he reached out and took the Jihua book and the city defense map and studied it.

Daring to see this jihua, General Yule's brows furrowed, and he kept comparing the city defense map, and after a while, his expression gradually relaxed, zuihou, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Send someone to inform the Marquis of Edlaide at once, tell him that we will do the same, and at the same time, you also arrange for someone to rearrange it as soon as possible, and after all this is done, you can come back here and we will discuss the next thing!" Yule handed everything back to Gavin's hand, and he actually turned around and lay back on the bed, looking like he was about to go back to the cage.

"Father!" Gavin didn't know how his father would behave like this, and he wanted to say something more. But at this moment, Yule just waved at him, as if he was impatient with Gavin influencing him to return. Seeing his father like this, Gavin sighed deeply and turned to leave Yule's room.

Upon returning to his study, Gavin immediately gave orders as his father had told him. As one of his men took the order, Gavin gradually calmed down, and he picked up the Jihua book on his desk again, this time he finally saw something different.

With this new discovery, Gavin was no longer so impatient, and he calmly packed up everything in the study, and then returned to Yule's bedroom without hurrying.

Yule had already gotten up, and was enjoying his hearty breakfast, when Gavin walked in, motioned for him to sit across from him, and asked his servant to bring Gavin a pair of chopsticks as well. Yule casually glanced at Gavin's expression, he nodded in satisfaction, and did not speak, both father and son enjoyed this rare and warm breakfast.

"Figured it out?" asked Gavin after breakfast, after Yule instructed his subordinates to clean up everything on the table.

"Almost!" Gavin replied respectfully, standing in front of Yule.

"Gavin, after today, I'm afraid we won't have the opportunity to talk like this again, so we might as well use this free time in the morning to have a good chat! Yule gestured to the seat in front of him and motioned for Gavin to sit down.

Hearing his father's slightly sad beginning, Gavin was in a trance for a moment, and he sat down in front of Yule almost instinctively.

"What do you think of the city defense map that the Marquis sent today?" Yule suddenly asked a question that was not very relevant, which made Gavin, who was already a little distracted, slightly startled. Yule smiled disapprovingly and repeated his question again.

Gavin thought that his father would talk to him about the new Jihua, or explain some family affairs, but he never expected that his father would suddenly mention the city defense map that was the least important in his eyes at the moment.

"Very detailed and detailed! I wonder how the Marquis of Edlaide managed to do it in such a short period of time? You know, we have not heard any news of it to this day, which makes me doubt the authenticity of this map of the city. But then I thought that with the Marquis's prudence, he would never have sent the drawings to us so hastily if he had not been absolutely sure. Only then did I finally believe in this map of city defense. ”

"It's just that it is precisely because of this city defense map that I have questions this morning. Gavin peeked at his father, and seeing that there was nothing unusual in his father's eyes, he continued cautiously.

"This map not only shows the protection of the streets and gates, but even the gates where Bradley and Jeffrey will be stationed are clearly marked. Originally, I thought that with this map of the city, it would no longer be difficult for us to get out of the city, which also made me doubt the new Jihua of the Marquis!I didn't figure out the trick until I came here, just you?" Gavin has always hoped that his father can leave the Monlin Empire with him, even if he will be incognito from now on, he can only be coarse and light, as long as he can save his father's life, he has no regrets!

"Actually, this is also where the Marquis understands me better than you! We have already decided on this matter, so don't discuss it today! I just want to know what else you have in mind through this city defense map, I need you to be as comprehensive as possible. ”

"Being able to get such a detailed map of the city defense means that there have been traitors in the upper echelons of our Menglin Empire, and this person is in a very important position, otherwise he would never be able to do this!" Gavin heard his father refuse his request again, and his heart ached slightly, and he tried to stabilize his emotions and continued. This was normal reasoning, but as soon as his words came out, he himself was taken aback. If his guess was correct, the Monlin Empire would have almost no secrets to speak of for the Dongyu Empire!

"Then Weishenme didn't find out about our sneak attack on the Dongyu Empire?" Gavin couldn't help but ask.

"A traitor can't be omnipotent! But your discovery can help Heller analyze the identity of the traitor. But I'm not interested in this matter at this time!" Yule said with a smile after hearing Gavin's analysis, and then he motioned with his eyes for Gavin to continue talking.

"With the current status of the Marquis, it is definitely in the spotlight! In such an extremely high-profile situation, it is impossible for the Marquis to have any intimate interaction with the upper echelons of the Monlin Empire, and even if there is some occasional contact, it is impossible for the other party to be persuaded by him casually. Through these analyses, it was shown that this high-level traitor could only be subordinate to the highest intelligence department of the Dongyu Empire!"

"In the previous jihua, the marquis's defense of Horfakkan was mostly obtained through observation and inference, if my judgment is correct, the marquis has just obtained this city defense map!"

"This means that your guess has been confirmed, and in order to ensure the Marquis' safe return to China, the heavyweights of the Dongyu Empire have rushed here!"
