Three Saint-Level Draws! Two Rabbits Walking On The Ground!

"Really! The reputation of the best cavalry in the world is well-deserved!"

"Excellent!" Orion exclaimed excitedly. "Having such an elite army is a tremendous blessing!"

"It is unworthy of a gentleman to not seek vengeance for one's wrongs!"

"General Yuan, I have a vendetta I need you to avenge!"

Yuan Zuozong immediately agreed, "I will gladly assist the Lord!"

"Good!" A cold smile flashed across Orion's face. "The Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Linglong, discriminates against the loyal and righteous, harming them unjustly! There must be deceitful ministers around her, spreading slander and causing trouble!"

"For the sake of Zhou Guozuo and the peace of the people…"

"Proceed to the court! Align with Qingjun's side!"

Orion's eyes glinted with cold determination. "Empress Zhou Linglong, since you are unjust, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Understood!"

Yuan Zuozong, with a stern expression, accepted the order. To him, Orion was the true authority.

"The Snow Dragon Cavalry's target is Chang'an City. Prepare to set off!"

Just as the Dragoons were about to march, a spy arrived with news:

"Report to the commander! We have captured a group of people behaving suspiciously!"

"They claim to be scouts from the Yubei City defenders!"

"Yubei City defenders? He Long?"

Yuan Zuozong glanced at Orion, puzzled.

"Oh, I know He Long. He was appointed by the imperial court as the city lord of Yubei City," Orion explained calmly.

The large-scale movement outside the city was impossible to conceal from the city defenders. Orion's eyes, however, betrayed a flash of anger. He Long was a loyal lackey of the Empress, sent to seize control of Yubei City—a city within the fiefdom of the Zhenbei King. This usurpation had stripped Orion of his power, and now He Long was tasked with overseeing the Northern Territory.

"He Long is the Empress's pawn. Damn it!" Orion's frustration was palpable.

"Do not worry, my lord. I will execute all captured troops immediately!" Yuan Zuozong's anger was evident as he prepared to act.

However, Orion raised a hand to stop him. "General Yuan, hold on! While He Long deserves to die, the captured soldiers should be spared."

Orion's eyes narrowed as he continued, "General Yuan, delay the southern advance for now. First, deal with He Long and his cronies, then take over Yubei City in my name. Make sure the entire garrison is reorganized to ensure loyalty to me!"

Orion handed Yuan Zuozong the Zhenbei King's waist card. "Since He Long is loyal to the Empress, he must die. The lower-ranking soldiers are loyal to my father. Show them the Zhenbei King's sign, and they will naturally follow you."

"Understood!"

Yuan Zuozong took the badge and departed promptly.

"System, open the lottery interface! I want to draw a lottery!"

With arrangements in place, Orion turned to the system lottery interface, eager to use his three million luck points.

[Ding! The system lottery interface has been opened!]

As soon as Orion finished speaking, a faint, ethereal interface appeared. Orion chose the million-level holy lottery, seeking the best rewards.

[Ding! The host has chosen the Holy Level Lottery. The system is drawing…]

[Ding! The lottery was successful! Congratulations to the host for winning three hundred Shadow Guards!]

[Ding! The lottery was successful! Congratulations to the host for winning a 50,000 Trap Camp!]

[Ding! The lottery was successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the intelligence organization Xiaoyu!]

Orion reviewed the three rewards with satisfaction.

"Shadow Guards!"

"Trap Camp!"

"An intelligence organization, Xiaoyu!"

The descriptions confirmed the high value of the rewards:

[Shadow Guards: Led by a peak half-saint, with the deputy leader as a semi-saint, ten captains are Martial Sects, and members are Martial Kings and Martial Emperors!]

[Trap Camp: Commanded by a peak Half-Saint, with deputy commander at the Martial Emperor peak, commanders at Martial King peak, centurions at Martial King, and sergeants as great martial artists!]

[Xiaoyu: Led by a Ban Sheng, with the deputy leader as Wu Zong, regional chiefs as Wu Huang, leaders as Wu Wang, and one hundred thousand members—great martial arts masters!]

Orion nodded in satisfaction. Although the rewards varied in quality, each was a holy realm-level asset, with every organization featuring semi-saints.

Soon, powerful figures appeared around Orion.

"Yingmo (Shadow Guard), Gao Shun (Trap Camp), Yuxiang (Xiaoyu)—"

"See the Lord!"

Among them, Yuxiang, the leader of Xiaoyu, drew Orion's attention. Yuxiang, stunningly beautiful, captivated Orion.

Orion's eyes widened. "So beautiful…"

Seeing Orion's intense gaze, Yuxiang grew anxious. The Adam's apple bobbed nervously.

"My lord…you see…"

Yuxiang quickly explained, "I'm actually a man and used a disguise to appear as a woman!"

With a wave, Yuxiang transformed from a captivating beauty into a young man in white.

Orion stared in disbelief. "A man? I'm such a fool…"

Yuxiang's disguise had been so convincing it nearly fooled him entirely. Despite the shock, Orion admired the skill.

Yuxiang, who had hoped to impress Orion, now faced an unexpected reaction. No one noticed Yingmo, in his black attire, observing thoughtfully with eyes like dark pools.
