Chapter 481 Return to the Imperial Capital

A few days later, after a long journey, Ryan and Alice finally returned to the imperial capital.

When they arrived at the city gate, the guard recognized Ryan at a glance, but he didn't know whether to stop him or not. He could only let Ryan wait for a while while he went into the city to inform him.

Ryan was not in a hurry. He let Alice sit on the horse and he got off the horse, wanting to see how Kailan would deal with him.

Soon, the sound of armor was heard, and Kailan led a group of knights to the city gate.

With a wave of Kailan's hand, the knights immediately raised their weapons and aimed at Ryan!

Then, Kailan said angrily: "Ryan, since you have already surrendered to the demon clan, why are you coming back now? Do you really think I dare not kill you?"

Seeing this, Ryan sighed. The army on the front line was fighting bloody battles, and this kind of thing was happening in the rear. How could this war be fought well?

"Kailan, you said I defected to the demon clan, do you have any evidence?"

"Kyle, who killed my father, is the biggest evidence!"

Kailan shouted, "You and Kyle are both frontline commanders. How could you not know that Kyle murdered his father?"

"Then let me ask you, what if Kyle has been leading the troops at the front and has never come back? What good would it do Kyle to kill His Majesty?"

"Killing my father is his token of surrender to the demon clan!"

Kailan spoke so forcefully and in such a way that Ryan felt as if he had really surrendered to the enemy.

"If Kyle really surrendered to the enemy, wouldn't it be better for him to just kill tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line and then lead the demon army to attack the border? Why bother with these little tricks?"

"Humph! Are these two things in conflict? While killing tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line, you are also destroying Hedley's internal defenses, making it easy for the demons to attack and break through. Isn't that exactly your plan?"

"Pooh!"

At this time, Alice on horseback finally couldn't stand it anymore and pointed at Kailan and yelled:

"You said Ryan defected to the enemy, then what about me? Could it be that Olivia, the first leader of the Whispering Forest Elf Clan, also defected to the Demon Clan?"

"Uh……"

Now Kailan was really speechless.

No matter how good he is at confusing right and wrong, he would never say such stupid things as "the first patriarch of the elves defected to the demons."

What is the relationship between the elves and the demons? It is a real fight to the death! The elves are willing to surrender, but the demons are not willing to accept them!

"Lord Ryan!"

At this time, Futini's voice also came.

Seeing Futini and Fina rushing over, Futini rushed out of the city gate and threw herself into Ryan's arms: "You are finally back!"

The moment she saw Ryan, Futini finally found her backbone.

Ryan hugged Futini tightly and patted her back gently: "Thank you for your hard work during this period."

"Lord Ryan, I miss you..."

Futini's eyes were slightly red, but now she couldn't cry anymore. She had been crying almost all the time in the past two days:

"After you left, our father died, and everyone said that it was my eldest brother who did it. They also said that you and my eldest brother were colluding with the demons. I know that you are definitely not such people..."

"Don't worry, Kyle and I are always at the front line, and the army is almost reaching the Demon King's Castle.

And I came back to investigate the death of His Majesty."

After talking to Futini, Ryan put Futini back on the ground, raised his head, and said coldly:

"The battle report we sent back to the Imperial Capital was withheld, and His Majesty was suddenly assassinated. I suspect that a spy from the Demon Tribe has infiltrated the Imperial Capital, so I came back to investigate the matter thoroughly!"

"You said there are spies from the demon clan sneaking in?"

Kailan suddenly shouted: "Are the guards of our imperial capital just there to do nothing? How could we possibly let the demon clan's spies sneak in?"

"If it's an ordinary spy, it's not difficult to catch him. But... what if it's the last demon general?"

魔将?

The soldiers immediately looked at each other, and Kailan was even more confused.

Ryan continued, "If I'm not mistaken, the fifth demon general under the Demon King, Blood Rose, Candice, has already infiltrated the imperial capital. The Kyle who assassinated His Majesty was transformed by her!"

When these words were spoken, the ministers who had rushed over were also greatly shocked.

Obviously, they were more inclined to believe Ryan's words.

Kailan's heart was already in turmoil: "The demons went to so much trouble to let a demon general in, just to assassinate my father? Are you kidding me?"

"Assassinating His Majesty is only one of her goals. Her most important goal is to serve as bait."

Ryan said calmly: "A demon general appears here. With such a big event in the rear, either I or Kyle will lead the army. One of them must come back anyway. And this will give the demons on the front line an opportunity to take advantage of it, right?"

"You... stop talking nonsense!"

"I'm just guessing now, why are you in such a hurry?"

Ryan walked forward with a smile and patted the trembling Kailan on the shoulder: "Besides, I just came back to investigate the demons. Why did you go to so much trouble to stop me? Could it be that... you feel guilty?"

"You... stop slandering me!"

"Then don't stop me, get out of here!"

Ryan was too lazy to deal with this guy, so he pushed him aside and led Alice towards the palace.

Futini and Fina naturally followed closely behind.

The ministers looked at each other and followed Ryan.

After catching up with Ryan, Fina quickly whispered to Ryan: "Your guess is correct, but isn't it a bit too ostentatious to say it out loud? What if we alert the enemy?"

"I just want to alert the enemy."

Ryan's eyes darkened: "If we don't do this, how can we quickly get Kailan to find that Candice?"

If Ryan guessed correctly, Kyle has already led the army to fight the demons on the front line, right?

He also has to deal with Candice quickly. He doesn't know how long the front line can hold out. If the Sword Ghost Yves is there, Weir may be able to hold on for a while, but what if the Demon King takes action himself?

While Ryan was heading towards the palace, Kailan quickly jumped on his horse and headed for his own bedroom.

As soon as he rushed into the bedroom, Kailan hurriedly asked, "Hey! Are you there? Where are you?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Kailan shouted again.

Candice, who was hiding in the dark, could no longer bear it and showed up in the corner: "Idiot, I saw everything about the city gate clearly!"

"Then what should we do next?"

Kailan's hidden panic broke out. He knew clearly that Ryan had killed two demon generals and severely injured the strongest demon general, the sword ghost Yif!

"In the next few days, you will try your best to hold the Black Knight back. Also, don't have too much contact with me. Got it?"

Candice said in a serious tone: "Next, you can delay it for as long as you can...

Wait, what's that on your shoulder?"
