Peerless Taoist

The Spirit Province Prefecture Overseer often cultivated in seclusion. The matters within the government office were usually left to the registrar and other trusted aides to handle.    

The Imperial Court had clearly stipulated that those below the rank of chief official in the Starry House were not allowed to cultivate for more than three months. The Spirit Province Prefecture Overseer's three months of cultivation was already the limit.    

Swoosh! Swoosh! Whoosh!    

Outside the government office, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers could be heard.    

Before New Year's Eve, the Spirit Province government was already quite lively. There were lanterns and colorful banners everywhere, and the atmosphere was brimming with a joyous atmosphere.    

However, Lu Yu's heart was different from the others. It was as if he had fallen into an ice cave.    

In the memories of the Emperor of Taiqian, according to the governor's report, the rebel army attacked the Spirit Province on New Year's Eve!    

The entire Spirit Province was still immersed in the joy of the new year. No one had noticed the danger approaching. The rebel army did not encounter any resistance, and directly occupied the entire Spirit State Prefecture.    

It was already midnight, and after a while, it would be the second day, which was New Year's Eve!    

There was not much time left for Lu Yu to make a comeback.    

"Such a vicious method. If I didn't know what would happen... I'm afraid being muddle-headed will cost you your life. If I failed so early in the court examinations, not only would my results on both the civil and military rankings be rendered useless, I would also lose my life. I'll become the laughing stock of the entire Heaven Realm! "    

The Crown Prince's plan had already been revealed.    

He didn't want to give Lu Yu any chance to fail the court examinations!    

Although many geniuses had read the history books, they knew very little about the official documents of the court. They didn't know that such a huge rebellion would take place in such a remote place.    

Usually, this kind of thing would be concealed in the imperial court. After all, this was a secret of the imperial court, and only a few people knew about it.    

It was precisely because the Crown Prince had calculated this that he had placed Lu Yu in the Spirit Province, allowing him to destroy it himself.    

"Unfortunately, you still miscalculated in the end. I remember everything that happened in Spirit Province clearly. It is impossible for you to trap me with it!"    

Lu Yu made a prompt decision and instructed, "Send someone to send an invitation to inform Master of the Green Wood Sword Sect and the Heavenly Path Sect in the city. The manager of the Heavenly Origin Chamber of Commerce came to the Xiangshui Building for a banquet at noon. I have something to discuss with them. "    

" Lord, today is New Year's Eve, do you want to invite them in a few days? " The registrar hesitated.    

Lu Yu waved his hand. "I can't wait for this. Immediately write the invitation letter and send it over. Tell them that if anyone doesn't come, they will bear the consequences!"    

Seeing Lu Yu's serious expression, the registrar immediately agreed.    

"By the way, send someone to get a few generals from the garrison in the city to come over."    

"Yes, sir."    

...    

After the registrar left, Lu Yu found the map of the Spirit State Prefecture and slowly unfolded it.    

Although a cultivator's Spiritual Sense could sweep across a hundred miles and see through everything, it consumed too much of the soul's energy. In order to understand the geography of the land, a map was still quite useful.    

On the map, the entire Spirit Province Prefecture was surrounded by towering mountains, and the outside was flat and flat.    

There were some counties that were even lower in the Spirit Province, and they were faintly emitting light.    

The appearance of light in these prefectures indicated that the prefectural offices were still safe, and it was also the best way for the Prefecture Overseers to detect danger.    

If one took a general look, they might think that all the prefectural cities were safe. However, if one looked closely, one would discover that the lights in many prefectures were flickering, as if they would be extinguished in the next moment.
