Dragon Soul acted faster than Chu Feng expected.
He received a call within twenty minutes of returning to Haitang Garden Mansion.
"Speak," Chu Feng said while watering a potted lily.
"Yes, Dragon Lord. We acted upon your instructions. Among the four military regions, we've weeded out many spies from the Martial Arts Alliance," the person on the other end of the call said excitedly. "We found thirteen officials involved in this conspiracy. They're scattered across all military regions waiting for the chance to sow chaos. Just like you wanted, every one of them is summarily executed. The Headquarters also wants me to thank you for your information. If we hadn't found out about the existence of Martial Arts Alliance spies, they would've continued to gain influence in the military. I can't imagine what would happen in two or three years!"
Chu Feng listened to the report but said nothing. He had no reaction toward this piece of good news.
However, he was surprised that Wei Zhongxian managed to insert thirteen spies into the higher ranks of the military.
In only five years, the Martial Arts Alliance had grown from a motley gang to a serious threat to the nation's security.
It was obvious that Wei Zhongxian wanted to rule over the entire country as emperor.
"Thank you, my brothers. I'm happy you acted faster than I expected," Chu Feng said. "I'll submit a report to the Headquarters and give you all the credit."
