Qi Xing forced a smile on his face: "Regarding Xiao Sheng's disappearance, I have already sent people to look for him. That kid has always had good luck, so he will definitely be fine!"

As he spoke, he took out a booklet from his bosom and handed it to Liu Yuntian: "Mr. Liu, these independent cultivators all admire your reputation and have come here to join us. In addition, many brothers who fled the Northern Frontier have also returned with me."

Liu Yuntian took the book and glanced at it hastily. He found that it was a directory, so he did not read it carefully. He returned it to Qi Xing and said casually, "You can do it yourself."

"Arrange these independent cultivators who have come to seek refuge in a suitable residence, and let them move in after the tower next to the palace is built."

"Tower?"

Qi Xing asked in confusion, but soon remembered the tall tower that was about to be completed that he saw when he entered the city, so he nodded and put the directory book in his arms.

"Where did you escape to after I left Northern Frontier?" Liu Yuntian patted Qi Xing's shoulder and asked with concern.

Qi Xing glanced up, recalling what happened at that time, "After you were taken away by Ye Ling, His Majesty suddenly took action. He first issued a warrant for Ye Ling's arrest, but then he arrested the generals of the National Protection Army one by one for not protecting you..."

"Later... the National Defense Army underwent a major reshuffle. All those who were loyal to you were dismissed and replaced with the cronies of the former imperial consort Qu Wenwu. Many brothers could not bear the humiliation and betrayed their country and fled. Some even committed suicide..."

"Father... was also accused of forming a clique for personal gain by His Majesty, who forced him to confess your crimes. However, in order to prove his innocence, father chose to commit suicide in front of His Majesty..."

Seeing Qi Xing's sad look, Liu Yuntian patted his arm heavily to express his comfort.

But Liu Yuntian knew this situation very well.

I had anticipated all of this when I chose to break off relations with Ye Xinglan and break into the palace at night.

Liu Yuntian sent a letter to General Qi, asking him to take the Qi family away from Daliang, but General Qi did not listen.

He felt that he was a Liang citizen in life and would be the soul of Liang in death.

Ye Xinglan is incompetent. If he wants Daliang to survive, he can only follow Liu Yuntian till the end. He never complains even when Ye Xinglan accuses him of forming a clique for personal gain.

Without further explanation, he chose to endure it all silently.

This is why Qi Sheng brought a message to Liu Yuntian before breaking into the palace at night: he is willing to live and die with Liu Gong.

Liu Yuntian also admired General Qi's character and promised that the Qi family would prosper forever.

The Qi family can be said to be full of loyal and brave people. In fact, General Qi is more inclined towards the royal family of Liang, and his attitude towards Liu Yuntian is complicated.

He knew that hanging out with Liu Yuntian was a contempt for the imperial power and a great disrespect. As one of the three highest officials, this behavior was considered treason.

But if he wants Liang to be strong, he must do this! Only Liu Yuntian can make Daliang strong and no longer be invaded by other countries.

Likewise, he could not resist Liu Yuntian and return the power of the Liang Kingdom to the royal family. All he could do was to ensure that the Liang Kingdom could continue.

As for how Liu Yuntian would treat Ye Xinglan, he didn't dare to think about it. He knew that with Ye Xinglan's ability, he could not defeat Liu Yuntian at all.

If you want to rely on Liu Yuntian to save Liang State, you cannot save Ye Xinglan. If you want to save Ye Xinglan and expel Liu Yuntian, Liang State will soon perish in Ye Xinglan's hands.

Ever since he started hanging out with Liu Yuntian, Captain Qi had never thought that he would have a good ending.

So he had been waiting for such a day, waiting until Liang State was completely established in the world, and then he would make amends with his body...

Liu Yuntian naturally knew exactly what General Qi was thinking. He never cared whether the Qi family was loyal to him. He only cared whether the Qi family was useful and could help him.

Obviously, the Qi family did a good job in this regard and never let themselves down.

Liu Yuntian had seen Qi Sheng's sneaky intentions before, but at that time he just thought that he was loyal to Ye Xinglan. With the style of the Qi family, it was understandable that someone was loyal to the royal family.

But according to Dongfang Lan, Qi Sheng was not loyal to Ye Xinglan, which is worth pondering...

Apart from these, Liu Yuntian actually admired the Qi family's tradition very much. Apart from some blind loyalty, he could not find any fault with it.

......

Qi Xing scratched his head, as if he wanted to say something to Liu Yuntian, but he hesitated.

Seeing this, Liu Yuntian said, "If you have anything to ask, just say it."

Qi Xing rubbed his fingers on the handle of the knife for a while, hesitating a little. He felt that with his status, he should not ask about these matters, so he waved his hands repeatedly.

But Liu Yuntian didn't care. He pointed in the direction where Diwu Shuya left and said, "You want to ask about Fu Xin, right?"

Qi Xing nodded repeatedly: "He is actually a mechanical puppet, then..."

Liu Yuntian chuckled, poured the cooled water in the teacup onto the ground, and refilled it: "Except you, everyone else is a robot puppet."

When Qi Xing heard this, his eyes widened and he was suddenly at a loss. He was very surprised and shocked at the same time. They had worked together for five years, but he had never noticed it.

"Very realistic, right?"

Qi Xing nodded, Liu Yuntian smiled and drank a sip of tea and continued: "So, the Fifth Saint Son is a genius."

At this point, Qi Xing became even more confused. He lowered his body and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Liu... since they are all mechanical puppets, they don't need spiritual stones and other cultivation resources... but on the books, the resources for the fifteen of them are distributed every year..."

"But I know your wealth best. You didn't keep these resources for yourself..."

Liu Yuntian sat upright, turned his body and looked at Qi Xing, with a smile on his face: "Wonderful where these resources went, huh?"

Qi Xing nodded dully and said, "Yeah."

Liu Yuntian smiled and said in a relaxed tone: "Of course I really sent it to them. I would not falsify my own private accounts. Otherwise, wouldn't I be deceiving myself?"

After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Qi Xing frowned and thought for a while, then asked doubtfully: "They? Who are they?"

Liu Yuntian blew the water in the teacup and looked at the rippling water waves. A deep light flashed in his eyes, and then he slowly said, "Fu Xin and the others."

Hearing this name, Qi Xing's heart was shocked, and the people who had been rescued and taken in by Liu Gong emerged in his mind.

He suddenly remembered that Liu Gong not only saved them, but also spent a lot of resources to train them, and he had witnessed it all happening.

Thinking of this, Qi Xing couldn't help but be surprised, "He...they! They really exist!"

"Of course they do. Didn't you help them find shelter and food?"

Qi Xing was completely stunned. He stared at Liu Yuntian with wide eyes in disbelief, and stammered, "When did they leave? When did the mechanical puppets replace them... and where did they go?"

The corners of Liu Yuntian's mouth slightly raised, revealing an evil smile.

He gently put down the teacup in his hand, then blinked at Qi Xing with a sly gleam in his eyes.

"Guess." Liu Yuntian said playfully.
