Villain Cultivator (Web Novel)

”My, my. This is troublesome. ”

The eunuch, who had taken the order from Liu Bian, was a skinny man in his 50s. His face was covered in pimples and scars, and his skin was as rough as sandpaper.

He was an early-stage nascent soul expert. His strength and combat experience were inferior to Jia Shan and others, but he could defeat everyone under his realm with ease.

Head Eunuch Rang, the leader of all eunuchs in the palace, was in charge of all 12 units of the palace guards, which had the responsibility of protecting the royal family. Each unit consisted of two or three core pillar experts and over 100 foundation establishment realm officers.

Other forces also served the imperial clan, but these units under Eunuch Rang were the best. The armies under the imperial generals were not as intimidating as the royal guards.

Unless the top sects mobilized all their troops, no one would be able to post a threat to the imperial clan. Even the Wei Huang Army was no match against them. The only reason that the demon army hadn ’t been destroyed by the royal guards yet was because of the infighting between the eunuchs and the imperial clan ’s officers.

At the moment, Eunuch Rang had abandoned the emperor and his other sons. His units followed Liu Bian and served solely as his personal royal guards. Meanwhile, many generals, including Dong Zhongying, had joined forces with the brother-in-law of the emperor, the He Clan Leader. As the He Clan ’s leader was contesting against the eunuchs for power in the court, he wanted to remove the royal guards and decrease Liu Bian ’s influence.

Thus, the imperial army couldn ’t afford to wage war left and right. They were too busy fighting among themselves, allowing their external enemies to roam freely.

And now, the genderless elder carried the edict to the deck of the flagship, which his colleagues were protecting. Nine other core pillar realm eunuchs were sitting in a circle, and two mid-stage nascent soul generals were playing chess nearby.

”The prince has given me new orders. I shall lead a unit to scout Siren City. Is there anyone wanting to join me? ”

The generals glanced at Eunuch Rang, but they resumed their chess game. As for the others, they ignored him and continued meditating.

The head eunuch scoffed, ”Suit yourself. ”

…

30 Minutes later, the eunuch elder brought 100 5th-stage experts and flew south, heading toward the Siren City. Along the way, they scanned the perimeter to record the number of outstanding cultivators in the area.

Normally, it should have taken Eunuch Rang a few minutes to travel 10 kilometers. However, he took an hour to arrive as he had taken too many detours.
