Looking at Li Yao's sincere face and earnest eyes, Lei Chenghu failed to come up with any reply until a long time later. "Is this some kind of lousy trick to win my trust through fake loyalty so that you can monitor me from close up?"
"Absolutely not."
Li Yao shook his head quickly. "Trust me, General Lei. I mean it!"
"I trust nobody right now. None of the guys from the capital, either from the Council of Elders or the royal palace, are easy to deal with!"
Lei Chenghu looked at Li Yao thoughtfully but had no time to talk more to the strange guy. He turned around to Yun Chenghua again and said, "Warden Yun, what is the situation right now? How good is your control over the Godly Might Prison? Where is the Godly Might Fleet deployed? Is it under your absolute control?"
Just now, he addressed Yun Chenghua as "Fellow Cultivator Yun" because they were negotiating for cooperation.
