Chapter 5541 Bad News

If it weren't for the barrier separating the Tianyu Empire, Hua Manyu could even pass directly through the black door and reach the room where Zhang Yifeng entered the dark space.

At this time, the Tianyu Empire has been completely renewed.

Although barriers still exist, the empire's docks have been reopened to the world.

The imperial soldiers who had been reorganized and incorporated were standing at the dock, looking around with serious eyes.

The arrival of Hua Manyu and other outsiders was quickly noticed by the imposing imperial defenders.

An imperial general drove a warship to the border of the barrier.

"Excuse me, young lady, which country are you from?"

The general stared at Hua Muyu for a while and asked in a low voice.

"My name is Hua Manyu, and I came here to look for friends."

Hua Manyu also responded politely and calmly, while raising the little soul figurine in her hand.

The appearance of the little soul figurine was the same as Zhang Yifeng's, which saved Hua Manyu the time of explaining.

Upon hearing this, the imperial general stared at the little soul figurine in Hua Manyu's hand for a long while.

But the more he looked, the more shocked he became, because the little figure in Hua Manyu's hand was exactly the same as the empire's imperial teacher.

"Miss Hua, may I ask if the friend you are looking for is named Zhang?"

The imperial general swallowed and asked urgently.

"Exactly. Could it be that you know where my friend is going?"

Hua Manyu's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly in reply.

"The situation is urgent. I don't have time to explain it to Miss Hua in detail. Please come with me to meet the king."

After the general finished speaking, he raised his hand to remove the barrier and led Hua Manyu's flying boat to the Imperial Pier.

Although Hua Manyu was somewhat confused when she saw this, since it concerned Zhang Yifeng, she hurriedly followed.

After arriving at the dock, the general signaled Hua Manyu to wait for a moment, and then hurried to talk to a Lu family guard stationed at the dock.

When the Lu family's personal guard heard that Hua Manyu had a close relationship with Zhang Yifeng, he was also surprised.

After looking at Hua Muyu carefully for a while, he immediately nodded and agreed to the general's intention to take people to meet the king.

Finally, Hua Manyu and his group followed the general all the way to the palace of the Tianyu Empire.

Today the palace has been restored to normal operation and the damaged main gate has been repaired.

Inside the imperial palace, Lu Shang was sitting on the dragon throne, bored.

He looked down at Ji Huanying, who was crouching over the desk beside him, furiously writing and revising memorials, and was about to say something.

The next second, hurried footsteps were heard from outside the hall.

After a while, a palace guard pushed the door open and saluted Lu Shang and Ji Huanying.

"Your Majesty, General Li, who is in charge of guarding the dock today, is outside the palace asking for an audience."

"General Li said he met a woman who claimed to be a friend of the Imperial Master and was looking for the Imperial Master."

After entering the palace, the palace guard did not waste any time and quickly informed the situation.

Hearing this, both Lu Shang, who was leaning on the dragon throne, and Ji Huanying, who was writing furiously, were stunned.

"Bring the person here quickly!"

After Lu Shang and Ji Huanying came to their senses, they shouted at the same time.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the palace guard hurriedly responded respectfully, turned around and quickly left the hall.

Soon, the sound of footsteps was heard from outside the hall.

The general on duty at the dock, known as General Li, led Hua Manyu into the hall.

In order to prevent any unexpected events, Hua Manyu specially arranged for everyone else to wait outside the palace, and came alone to investigate the truth.

"Do you know Brother Zhang?"

Seeing Hua Manyu entering the hall, Lu Shang didn't have too many scruples and flashed directly in front of her.

"Yes, Yifeng and I are good friends. May I ask if you are the emperor of the Tianyu Empire?"

On the way here, Hua Manyu had already heard a lot from General Li about Zhang Yifeng and the Tianyu Empire.

This includes the story of Zhang Yifeng leading everyone to overthrow the rule of the former emperor of the Tianyu Empire.

However, after hearing what Zhang Yifeng said with her own ears, Hua Manyu still couldn't completely believe the words of these strangers.

"No, she is the emperor of the Tianyu Empire."

"I am just an ordinary general serving on behalf of my father."

Lu Shang shook his head and pointed at Ji Huanying who was writing furiously on a memorial not far away.

Given Lu Shang's character, it is naturally impossible for him to take on such an important responsibility as the leader of the empire.

Naturally, this responsibility could not be handed over to the remaining imperial family.

But whether it was Lu Ji and his son, or Jing Lei and his group, none of them were interested in becoming the master of the empire.

Obviously, they could hold the pinnacle of power in the entire Tianyu Realm, but none of them have the slightest interest in it.

Finally, at Lu Shang's suggestion, it was decided to let Ji Huanying take this position and give it a try.

Ji Huanying was a little resistant at first, but after she started to handle government affairs seriously, she immediately immersed herself in it.

And under Ji Huanying's guidance, the entire Tianyu Empire quickly emerged from the shadow of the coup.

Seeing that Ji Huanying did such a perfect job as the leader of the empire, everyone immediately decided to let her officially take this position.

Seeing that the situation in the empire had stabilized, Lu Ji took the initiative to resign from the post of general and handed it over to his son Lu Shang to succeed him.

As for himself, he went away happily and carefree.

Every day I either drink and chat with my old subordinates, or go to the military camp to take a look.

From time to time, he would go to Ge Wen, who also chose to retire to the countryside, to drink tea and joke around, and his life was extremely fulfilling.

This is also the reason why Lu Shang has to follow Ji Huanying day and night.

Even if she was reviewing memorials alone in the imperial palace, Lu Shang would always stay by her side to protect her.

Ji Huanying doesn't care about the emperor's power. She cares more about whether the people of the empire are living a sufficient life now.

This is also why Lu Shang could sit on the dragon throne so brazenly.

"So, Miss Hua came to Tianyu Realm to find the whereabouts of Brother Zhang?"

At this moment, Lu Shang had already learned from Hua Manyu the ins and outs of her coming to the Tianyu Realm, and said with a look of emotion.

"Yes, do you know where Yifeng is now?"

Hua Manyu's beautiful eyes narrowed and she asked hurriedly.

"I'm sorry, Miss Hua."

"In fact, we want to find Brother Zhang just like you do, but he is probably no longer in the Tianyu Realm."

"After we stabilized the situation that day, I wanted to go to Brother Zhang the next day to ask him what to do next."

"When I found Brother Zhang's room, it was already empty."

Lu Shang shook his head with some regret.

When he went to look for him, Zhang Yifeng and his companions had already entered the dark space, so it was naturally difficult to find any trace of him.

"What? This..."

Hua Manyu frowned slightly when she heard that. A feeling of powerlessness surged into her heart along with the fatigue all over her body. She almost fell to the ground.
