A Plan Of Sabotage

"What's the situation here in the capital? And what about your father?" Lin Mu questioned after Wu Hei had calmed down.

"The capital has a lot of spies of Gu Yao. Mostly in the form of disciples of various sects. There are a few that are being controlled by the curse but most of them are here on the orders of their sects.

Overall the situation is in a strange equilibrium but it can be changed at any moment. As for my father Wu Xun, ever since he was promoted to the position of a court minister, his influence has only grown.

He has been using this power to establish various deals that are likely to be helpful to Gu Yao. I haven't been able to gain much on his end due to being greatly restricted. He hasn't been letting anyone other than Gu Yao himself get an idea of what he's doing either.
