Chapter 124: Sleepless Nights

The situation in the room is full of weirdness, three large living people surrounding a dead man, but their topic is getting further and further away from the dead man.

"Does the name 'Deborah' have any special meaning for Prince Lev?" Li Zijun couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw Deborah proudly talking about his name.

"My subordinates and I are dedicated to helping the prince deal with some things that are inconvenient for him to come forward directly, and in addition, I am also responsible for communicating with Meng Lin on behalf of the prince. Deborah said casually, as if she had just done something very ordinary.

Although Deborah said it was very casual, it was not so simple to listen to the ears of Li Zijun and Catherine! According to Deborah, she controlled almost half of Lev's country, how could such a character hide in the slave chamber of commerce?

"With your means, how could you be reduced to becoming a slave in the Chamber of Commerce?" Li Zijun couldn't help but ask after being slightly stunned.

"On the one hand, Lawrence is hunting me everywhere, so that wherever I hide, I will cause a lot of trouble, and on the other hand, it is for the sake of Ellebela! Her mother died just after giving birth to her, and I raised her single-handedly, and I did not expect to watch her leave!" Deborah sighed sadly.

At this time, Li Zijun also understood Ellebella's intention of entrusting Debora to himself, such a character would never need his own care. Ellebela's fundamental purpose is to ask Li Zijun to help her take revenge in this way, and the price she pays is all the strength that Lev hides in the shadows.

"Now that you know what Ellebella is up to, would you like to take us in?" Deborah asked, but her eyes showed imperceptible concern. She was worried that she would be rejected, and at the same time, she was worried that Li Zijun would secretly get rid of her after using her. After all, a character like her is too important, and it can even be said that as long as she exists, it is impossible for Li Zijun to really grasp Lev's secret shili.

"I'm just a little marquis, and Ellebela's expectations are too high for me to do. I even feel that in a short period of time, it will be impossible for the entire Dongyu Empire to do it!"

"Master Hou, are you rejecting us?"

"To tell you the truth, I am very fond of your strength, or I can say salivating! It's just that our cooperation must be based on good faith, and I don't want us to have conflicts in the future because some words are not clear. If you're willing to lower your requirements or give me a little more time, I'll do my best to accomplish your goal. But honestly, I'm not sure, and I want you to know that!"

"Xiexie, you treat each other with sincerity! To be honest, I have never seen a nobleman like you! In fact, we have no choice but you, we are willing to follow you! But I hope that Lord Hou can make an oath that when you have strength, you must help us deal with Lawrence!"

"Although your requirements are not high, it is still difficult for me to agree to you!" Li Zijun said this, and he felt a little unkind, but he really couldn't agree to Deborah.

Li Zijun originally thought that his words would completely anger Deborah, but he didn't expect Deborah to laugh when he heard this.

"Hou Ye is really a believer, Ellebella's choice is definitely a unique vision! I express my allegiance to Hou Ye on behalf of everyone in the house, and I will not put forward any more conditions, I just ask Hou Ye to help us get rid of Lawrence, a brute, if the situation allows!" Deborah knelt down on one knee in front of Li Zijun and said.

Speaking of which, Li Zijun would be hypocritical if he didn't say anything, he agreed to Deborah's request, and then helped her up and let her sit opposite him.

After Deborah sat down, he immediately took out a thick roster from the space ring and handed it to Li Zijun.

"That's what I have. Although the last turmoil in the Tibetan Empire caused most of the people to lose here, the general framework was not affected too much, and it was barely able to operate normally. ”

Li Zijun smiled faintly, and did not take the roster, he gently raised his hand to push the roster back in front of Deborah.

"I'm not familiar with them at all, they can do their best in your hands, or it is more appropriate for you to continue to lead them!"

Deborah wanted to hold on for a while, but when she saw Li Zijun's wise eyes, she smiled faintly, stopped doing that kind of hypocritical thing, and finally withdrew the roster.

"I'll take care of it for you first, and when we return to the Dongyu Empire, I'll give you a detailed introduction to them. ”

"They will always be managed by you, and you don't have to shirk it anymore!" Li Zijun knew what Deborah was worried about, and he wanted Deborah to make a guarantee.

"I'm just a little curious, with your connections in the Monlin Empire, it should be easy to get out of here, and you Weishenme still want Boulder to send you to the Calby caravan?"

"The Monlin Empire has an almost strict control over the number of slaves in the Tibetan slave caravans! And the evil spirit fetus in Albela's belly will soon burst out, and we don't want to hurt Boulder. And Boulder knows Albela's identity, and he also knows that she doesn't know other men at all, he has begun to suspect what Alor Bella has done, we just took advantage of your bet with Heller Bixia to ask them to help us get rid of our identity, so that it is better to live a sneaky life in the future! Deborah said regretfully. But then she thought that if the evil spirit fetus appeared in the Calby caravan, it would probably be Li Zijun and others who were unlucky, and she was a little embarrassed. The unexpected death of Ellebella still had some effect on Deborah, and her thinking became less rigorous.

"The only thing to be thankful for is that in the end Ellebella didn't bring that demon to this shijie. Deborah hurriedly explained.

"The matter has been satisfactorily resolved, and I don't seem to be such a stingy person, so don't mention it again in the future!" Li Zijun said with a smile and a wave of his hand.

"I know that Ellebela's death has hit you hard, and that last night's magical confinement has made it hard for you, but tomorrow is the day we leave Khorfakan, and I hope to have your help. ”

"Master Hou, if I advised you to leave Khor Fakkan City early, would you agree?"

"What's your reason?" Although Li Zijun saw Deborah's solemn expression, he didn't show too much worry because he had already obtained some information before. But he still asked very seriously, he wanted to know the situation from Deborah as a channel, which could also help him make a more accurate judgment.

"Heller Bixia is not only the strength you see, during this time, he secretly mobilized a large number of high-level martial artists from all over the world to come to Beijing. It seems that he has made up his mind to keep you in Khauerfekan, and he has done everything in his power to do so!"

"I know you're a Saint-Rank master, but I still have to warn you not to set your sights on the few Sword Masters you have. I believe that even if you have no distractions, it will not be so easy to cross through a group of high-level martial artists, not to mention that you have to take care of other aspects. ”

"Also, in addition..." Deborah knew that she was a little jealous in what she said next, and she involuntarily hesitated.

"Deborah, we're in the same boat now, what do you have to say?" Catherine saw Deborah's hesitant look, she glanced at Li Zijun and asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, Master Hou, are you going to sneak attack General Yule?" to inquire about the intentions of the boss, this is not a matter of coincidence at any time, but the stakes are very high, and Deborah has to ask the truth.

"Nothing!" Li Zijun said as he looked at Catherine with a smile.

When Deborah heard that Li Zijun had directly denied the speculation that she had almost identified, a little unhappiness immediately rose in her heart! She thought that Li Zijun was simply talking nonsense with her eyes open, and she had even begun to doubt whether her decision to join Li Zijun was correct.

"We are currently in a cooperative relationship with General Yule!That means that instead of assassinating General Yule, we will put on a good show with him for Heller!" Li Zijun nodded to Catherine, and Catherine explained their relationship with Yule.

"What?" Deborah was so shocked that she stood up from her chair when she heard Catherine's words, and her eyes were full of disbelief as she looked at Li Zijun.

"You sit down first, let Catherine tell you the whole jihua, and you can also help see if there are any other things that need to be added and modified?" Li Zijun turned his head and motioned Catherine to continue.

Catherine smiled and recounted their agreement with Yule and Jihua's identity in detail.

Hearing Catherine's introduction, Deborah was dumbfounded, she never thought that Li Zijun and Yule would actually perform such a play under Heller's nose, which made her a little overwhelmed for a while. What she didn't expect was that Li Zijun would tell herself such a confidential thing and tell this person who had betrayed him! Deborah couldn't help but be a little moved.

"Master Hou..." Deborah didn't know what he should say at this time.

"Since we have chosen to cooperate, we must ensure mutual trust! If we have always had a grudge against each other, it is better to cherish each other and go our separate ways to be more happy!" Li Zijun looked at Deborah and said very sincerely.

"Master Hou, in the news I got, in addition to Heller secretly mobilizing manpower, Empress Athena, the eldest prince Tiffany, and the third prince Colin have also been moving very frequently recently, and the third prince Colin has semi-openly recruited all kinds of high-level warriors and magicians! Although the eldest prince Tiffany seems to be very calm on the surface, in fact, he has been stepping up his contact with his subordinates, but his behavior is a little strange, and those people he contacts are now in the Royal Guard of the defensive city!" Speaking of this, Deborah suddenly saw Li Zijun smile smugly.

"Could it be that the eldest prince is also your man?" Deborah felt that something was wrong as soon as he said this, and an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.

"It's still far from that step, we are still in the stage of cooperation!" Li Zijun said this sentence very meaningfully, and Deborah nodded slightly.

"Compared to these two princes, Queen Athena's actions are much smaller, she just sent Gibran to help her communicate up and down, but this does not mean that her interests in this matter will be less than others, but I think Queen Athena may be the one who benefits the most!" Deborah also became free.

"Weishenme?" asked Li Zijun with some curiosity.

"It's because we can't see through it! We can't see through what Queen Athena wants to do, which means that she hasn't fully exerted her strength yet. Everyone's performance is in front of us, only she makes us know nothing, such a person is not simple!"

"And I've always thought that the most terrifying person in the Monlin Empire is not Heller, but this Queen Athena!"

"Oh, would you like to hear about it?"

Legend has it that the main reason why Heller was able to become the heir of Monlin back then was because of this Queen Athena! Few people know that Heller's few appearances back then were actually written by Queen Athena. But I didn't know that it was Weishenme later, and the two drifted apart, and Heller has not done anything commendable since then!"

"And such a thing!?" Li Zijun and Catherine both showed surprised expressions, they didn't expect that Meng Lin had such a secret story.

"This is also a taboo for Meng Lin, there are not many people who know about it, and even fewer people dare to mention it!"

"If you judge by that, will Empress Athena take the initiative to deal with me?"

"I don't think so, but that's just my personal opinion!"

"Tell me your reasoning?"

"Benefits! I don't see any benefits to be gained by Empress Athena's action against you! Empress Athena's habit is to exert the least amount of effort to obtain the maximum benefits. If I were her, I'd watch you guys fight to the brink and then unknowingly come out and clean up the mess, that's what she should do!" Deborah said after a moment's thought. She knew very well that although Li Zijun was asking about this operation, it was actually a test for her, if she couldn't impress Li Zijun with her talent, she would not be truly trusted and used by Li Zijun, and the matter of revenge would probably be suppressed indefinitely. Therefore, Deborah behaves as much as he can.

"Now that the situation in Hauerfakkan is complicated, if I were you, I would choose to leave here early and not give Heller any chance at all!Although this would be a loss for the slaves of the Calby caravan, how can their identities compare to your safety!" Deborah tried to advise Li Zijun to leave with his life.

"This is a promise to me, and I will never allow myself to break my promise easily!I know that everything you said is for my safety, but let me give up the matter of the caravan slaves in Colby, please don't mention it again!" Li Zijun waved his hand to stop Deborah from dwelling on the subject.

Deborah saw Li Zijun's resolute expression, and while admiring his quality of keeping his promises, he also had to sigh secretly.

"General Yul's performance is the most mundane, he has hardly changed from his usual appearance, and if I have to find any difference in him, it is that everyone in his house from top to bottom has become more low-key. When there is nothing to do, they rarely leave the General's Mansion!" Deborah was worried that Li Zijun would be a little dissatisfied when he talked about his allies, and she raised her eyes to see the change in Li Zijun's face.

Li Zijun's performance is normal, he is not as pedantic as Deborah imagined, even for his own subordinates, proper monitoring is necessary, not to mention that Yule is only an ally at the moment, listening to his situation, Li Zijun does not feel anything wrong.

"Stupid enemies and clever allies can always bring you some happiness, and General Yule really deserves the title of a generation of famous generals!" Li Zijun nodded with a sigh.

"You've been working hard for so long, let's hurry up and rest for a while! I'll arrange someone to help you deal with Albela's aftermath in a while, but before you go to rest, you still need to explain her affairs to other people, especially those in the original Lev Palace, don't let them have any misunderstanding!" Looking at Deborah, who was already exhausted, Li Zijun couldn't bear to ask any more, and asked Catherine to send her out.

Li Zijun sat on the spot and looked at Ellebella who was lying quietly on the bed, remembering Deborah's advice to himself just now, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It is indeed a bit stupid to think about the danger of killing yourself in a hurry for such a group of slaves whom I never know! But there are so many stupid things that people always have to do in this life so that they do not regret it, and he is no exception!

Although the day seemed peaceful on the surface, in fact, Heller, the eldest prince Tiffany, the third prince Colin, Gavin and Li Zijun were almost all busy! They all repeatedly reviewed the information in their hands, and at the same time prepared for the details of tomorrow's operation.

Everyone thought they were good hunters, and they were all secretly aiming at their respective targets with their shotguns in their hands. Of course, some of these targets do exist, but some of them are just an illusion, and this illusion can turn you from a hunter to a prey in the eyes of the other party in an instant!

The night is getting darker and deeper, and everyone in this game is looking up at the sky and praying silently in their free time, they all hope that they can have a beautiful tomorrow!

As if hearing the voices of anticipation, the dawn of the city of Halfecan seemed to be much earlier than usual. The haze in the sky for many days gradually dissipated, and the scorching sun illuminated the city of Halfakan at the same time, but also brought a little warmth to the people on such a winter day! Such a good weather lifted the spirits of the whole city, and they all thought it was a good omen. It's just that there is no feng shui in the Youlan Continent, and they can't explain that under the same clear sky, people's experiences will be so different!

Just like hearing the sound of the city gates opening wide, it means hope to those small traders who sell firewood and charcoal, and those who have just been woken up by this sound will have the urge to greet other people's mothers!

But in any case, as the people from outside the city poured into the city of Khor Fakkan, the 'tranquility' that had been resting all night was beaten to the ground again!

Today is the day when the slaves of the Colby caravan enter the palace to perform, except for Li Zijun, Catherine, and Van Lunding, everyone else can hardly sleep all night, and they all know what today's performance means to them! It is precisely for this reason that the unexpected death of Ellebella in this place full of women did not set off a trace of waves, which not only made Li Zijun feel a little surprised, but also made him sigh at the selfish side of human nature!

Li Zijun, Catherine and Van Lunding didn't almost sleep, the three of them didn't sleep at all. It wasn't until the first rays of light appeared in the sky that the full details of their actions were finalized.

After Fan Lunding left with each other, Li Zijun and Catherine kissed goodbye affectionately, and after being despised by Li Zijun for a while, Catherine reluctantly said goodbye to him. Her name did not enter the roster, and there was no way to follow Li Zijun into the palace, so she was left outside the palace to respond.

Li Zijun originally wanted to go back to his courtyard to take a nap, but he didn't expect that he had just walked into the far door when he saw a person standing in front of the door of his room.

"Yue'er, why are you back?Is there something wrong with Master Camilla?" Li Zijun saw Yue'er suddenly appear in front of him, and thought that there was something wrong with Camilla, he had been worried about Camilla's injury, and stepped forward to pull Yue'er and asked.

"The master's injuries are stable, and there is no major problem! She just didn't worry about you, and specially ordered me to come back and take care of you. Yue'er's face turned slightly red when she said this.

Li Zijun didn't dare to look directly at Yue'er casually, he was actually deceived by Yue'er so easily.

"I have hands and feet alone, and I don't need to be taken care of by others at all, Sister Yue'er, you better go back to the master!" Li Zijun said worriedly.

Although Li Zijun also knew that Yue'er's skills were good, today's scene would be very chaotic, and even he didn't dare to guarantee in his heart that he would be able to leave Haul Fakan alive, how could he bear to let such a young woman as Yue'er bear such a big risk!

But Li Zijun never expected that as soon as his words came out, Yue'er's eyes turned red when he left.

"I know you're going to be dangerous here, but rest assured, I'm not going to drag you down!"

Seeing Yue'er like this, Li Zijun couldn't help but have a headache, he knew Yue'er's stubbornness very well, and knew that even if he said anything, it would be impossible to change Yue'er's decision, so he had to nod and agree to let Yue'er stay.
