Only now did they learn that this matter was related to the Demon Seed.
As everyone stared in shock, Liu Zhengwen, who stood beside Bai Yuan, cleared his throat.
"Everyone, I am Liu Zhengwen of the Astronomical Bureau. I have come on the Emperor's orders to vanquish the Demon Seed."
"The Demon Seed is a disaster of untold proportions. If we allow it to grow, the very foundations of Xuanyang Country will be shaken. It must be eliminated!"
Liu Zhengwen spoke with impassioned conviction.
However, the crowd was more concerned with Liu Zhengwen's identity.
As the Commander of the Imperial Guard, Fang Yong was a familiar face to the many officials who had come from the Capital City.
But the Astronomical Bureau was Xuanyang's most secretive department. Aside from the Emperor and a handful of powerful figures, it was inaccessible to almost everyone else.
Standing in the crowd, Chen Danian's jaw nearly hit the floor.
