Chapter 1127: Beat

“That is true. With baseless speculation and groundless reasoning, if the Special Information Bureau wants to act against the flag of our empire, the three of us will not agree to it!”
The man in the blue shirt expressed his att.i.tude calmly.
Haven Downing, the Divine General, also had supporters!
At the same time, the Special Information Bureau in the Alpha Empire had always been suppressed by Haven and others.
Because these clueless fools had targeted the wrong people. Instead of investigating others, they chose to investigate core figures of the empire.
Years ago, they once targeted the refined middle-aged man, and he ended up killing hundreds of them. This incident shook the Special Information Bureau for a good twenty years, making them hesitant to meddle in this person’s affairs.
Now, this group was targeting Haven.
Even if Haven had some questionable actions at the Global Martial Artist Summit.
Without evidence, no one could bring down this flag of the empire.
At the same time, the Special Information Bureau had consistently failed to produce any significant results.
This was because they faced strong resistance.
Within the Empire State Building, these influential figures had never been lenient toward the Special Information Bureau that was under the direct jurisdiction of Walter Hardy.
If it weren’t for Walter’s direct jurisdiction, the refined middle-aged man and his companions would have shut down the bureau long ago.
At this moment, Walter whispered, “It’s indeed time to thoroughly investigate the Special Information Bureau, but their evaluation makes some sense. The infiltration of the Northern Army’s secret agents is too deep; we have to be on guard.”
“The Divine General Haven and the Northern Army’s King Braydon Neal can’t possibly have any connection. It’s clear that there’s an issue with the Special Information Bureau.”
The refined middle-aged man showed signs of anger.
Walter nodded in agreement and said, “I’ve also had my suspicions. I’ve ordered a thorough investigation. I want to protect Haven, but there are some matters that cannot be left unresolved. If we leave them unattended, others might use them against Haven in the future, which wouldn’t be beneficial.”
“As long as you’re aware of it.”
The man in the blue shirt nodded slowly.
All three influential figures supported Haven.
On the side, there were also three elderly men.
The man in the middle, with age spots covering his face, opened his green eyes and said slowly, “Walter, young Haven is still inexperienced, but he is a flag of the empire, proud and ambitious. It’s impossible for him to handle everything perfectly, leaving no room for criticism. Some people are just waiting for him to make a mistake, secretly recording it, gathering together, and using it against him.
“Young Haven is still young. You must protect him, understand?”
When the old man spoke, he conveyed his intentions.
Walter sighed and said, “Uncle, I understand!”
“There are things you may not see clearly. Consult Vick and the others; they are closer to you and have a better understanding of the thoughts of some people within the empire.”
The elderly man on the left spoke.
The elderly man on the right also chimed in, “Young Haven is someone we’ve watched grow up. At a young age, he has reached the supreme pinnacle realm, and his future is promising, with a chance to reach the emperor realm. This time, as he enters the South Pole, with his talents and fortune, he will surely gain opportunities and advance faster toward the emperor realm.”
“Don’t make Haven feel dejected, and don’t believe the rumors from outsiders.”

Walter helplessly stood up, following the wishes of the three elders.
The elderly man in the middle added, “Young Haven is a shining flag of the empire. How could he not attract jealousy? Next time someone attacks Haven, just execute them.”
“Understood!”
Walter stood up and expressed his stance.
His ability to firmly sit on the imperial throne depended on the support of these three elderly men.
Despite their old age, their influence was still immense. Take the three men in blue shirts, for example; each of them was the best student that the respective elder had taught.
The three elderly men in the Empire State Building were truly highly respected.
Their prestige was extremely high!
The three elderly men stood up and slowly said, “Next time someone wants to harm young Haven, please inform us. The millennium foundation of the empire cannot tolerate any issues.”
Walter’s face turned slightly pale, realizing that the three elders were displeased today.
It seemed that the secret order he gave to the mute had not escaped the notice of these three elderly men.
They were all well-informed.
In the eyes of the three old men, Walter giving such an order to the mute was like harboring murderous intent toward Haven.
It was simply absurd!
Haven was a Divine General, the flag of the empire.
He could die in battle outside.
But he absolutely could not die at the hands of his own people.
In the core high-level meeting of the Empire State Building, there were more than just the three Northern Army hidden agents like Haven!
Braydon led over ninety percent of the representatives of the Hansworth martial artists to collectively leave the Alpha Empire and sail to the seventh continent.
Among them, Dominic Lowe chose to return to his home country.
After all, all the sons of the Northern Army followed Braydon to the South Pole.
Someone needed to stay behind in the capital.
Military commanders like Kieran Normand and Sawyer Quail needed to stay behind.
In addition, with Martial Emperor Yanagi in seclusion, these seniors were required to oversee the overall situation in the capital.
At the same time, the various major ent.i.ties in the country had become much quieter.
The powerful families and aristocratic families no longer dared to cause trouble.
With the emergence of the ice-sealed geniuses, they all sided with the Northern Army.
From then on, the power struggle between the major ent.i.ties and the Northern Army came to an end.
Even if the two major ent.i.ties joined forces, could they contend with King Braydon?
Could they contend with the group of supreme pinnacles like Juneau Haines?
Channing Lestrange and others siding with the Northern Army implied something, and practically everyone understood.
As long as Braydon gave the order, when the supreme pinnacles acted, they could easily crush the powerful and aristocratic families and even exterminate them.
So, the internal struggles among the major ent.i.ties in Hansworth basically came to an end after the Hansworth Martial Artist Summit.
The opponents who used to compete with Braydon had already been replaced by countries from around the world.
At the same time, high-level figures in the major families had undergone changes.
In recent years, those old guys who had targeted Northern Army and even those in power in the major families had been replaced without exception.
The core figures of the powerful and aristocratic families who replaced the former ones were those who were inclined to befriend the Northern Army.
As for the fate of those who were replaced, it was not hard to imagine. If Braydon were to hold them accountable in the future, these old figures would all face death.
They would all have to die.
By doing that, they could quell the anger of King Braydon.
This was the survival method of the major families.
These martial forces, some with a history of hundreds of years and others over a thousand years, each had their own way of survival.
Now, with the rise of King Braydon, who held power in the capital, the Northern Army was spread across the twenty-three provinces and had dozens of supreme pinnacles under its command.
What did the powerful families and aristocratic families have to compete with?
Continuing the struggle would be a dead end.
So, the various major ent.i.ties within Hansworth had made their choices.
Only the sects, independent from the secular world and low-key for hundreds of years, had no enmity with the Northern Army. Therefore, they were the most relaxed.
On the distant seventh continent.
The ice and snow here hadn’t melted for thousands of years. Icebergs stood tall on the sea, extending as far as the eye could see, forming a world entirely composed of ice and snow.
Living here, as long as one was not afraid of severe cold, it was another world far away from the noise of the world.
