“Yes!” Zhang Jue responded.
Then, he stood up and selected several adept generals as candidates to sneak into the Carter Mansion to kidnap Susan.

Emperor and a Military Adviser. How could the supreme leaders work on something that could fail? Therefore, the
subordinates were sent instead.
A few minutes later, the selected generals disguised as civilians who had returned from outlands and snuck into Mid City.
At the Carter Mansion…
All the Carter family members and the elites of various sects had gathered in the main hall. Everyone was solemn, and
the atmosphere was extraordinarily depressing and gloomy.
The North Moana Army drew near, and Mid City was at stake.
Although they had just blocked a wave of attacks by the North Moana Army, none of them were happy.

Then, more than a dozen people in black appeared in front of her, and each emanated a forbidding aura.
Those people were excited to see Susan; their eyes lit up.
The aloof leader, whose eyes flickered in excitement, was Jake Herald.
