Chapter 1438 - 1439: The Secret Behind the Reward
The so-called establishment of a manor refers to the ability to assemble one’s own forces. Of course, the number of servants one can possess varies depending on their rank!
At this moment, Li Gui’s words essentially elevated Ye Luo to a status second only to the Crown Prince.
"By the way, Your Highness, His Majesty has carefully selected a group of servants for you, who accompanied me here to Cloud Manor. Among them are guards, imperial alchemists, array masters, and others, totaling one hundred and eight people. Please accept them, so I can return and inform His Majesty accordingly!"
The series of rewards left Ye Luo rather bewildered.
However, Ye Luo quickly grasped the pivotal point.
It seems that these one hundred and eight people are indeed the key to this situation. Although Ye Luo hadn’t received any explicit indications, he had earlier been tasked with establishing his own manor.
The task explicitly required Ye Luo to build a manor. Since Ye Luo hadn’t found one on his own, it was bestowed upon him by the Emperor of the Great Tang Empire. Naturally, the Border Guard couldn’t remain inactive.
It’s highly likely that this manor was a sudden decision on the Emperor’s part, and since the Border Guard was involved, they conveniently sent the people as well!
Alternatively, there might be another reason—perhaps the Border Guard and the Emperor believed Ye Luo was wasting too much time searching for a manor, and directly assigning one to him would save time, allowing for the personnel to be sent immediately.
No matter the reasoning, one thing is certain: these one hundred and eight people were specifically dispatched to assist Ye Luo in completing his mission!
This time, Ye Luo’s mission seems to be the most crucial matter in the Great Tang Empire.
After all, if Ye Luo succeeds, it’s certain that the Great Tang Empire will fully support him. By then, it might even be possible to conquer the Demon Clan Empire without shedding a drop of blood!
