Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

Zhu Ziyan, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Northern Region.

He is also the deputy director of the Imperial Capital Patrol Department, a figure who frequently appears on television.

"King Zhu!"

Upon seeing Zhu Ziyan appear, Wen Luan, Zhao Xuan, and the others, who had just gotten up from the ground, immediately greeted him without any regard for anything else.

Although Zhu Ziyan was only one of the three regional kings, it does not mean that he was not capable.

Moreover, even if he lacks ability, his position as the deputy head of the inspection department makes him someone many people cannot afford to offend.

At least, everyone present greeted them respectfully.

Mu Yun glanced at Zhu Ziyan, then at the fire-breathing dragon beside him.

Level 87, late-stage Champion tier, with stat bonuses on the stat sheet only slightly less than Zang Linyu's Sweet and Cold Queen.

It's estimated to be much stronger than Xu Dian's two giant golden monsters.

Fortunately, its waveguide emitted goodwill, clearly indicating it wasn't there to cause him trouble.

"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young!"

The moment Zhu Ziyan opened his mouth, the expressions on the faces of those around him became quite interesting.

Lu Shouchun's eyes were full of joy, and Zhao Shiyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Xuan looked at Mu Yun's face suspiciously, wondering what he was thinking.

Wen Luan secretly regretted that if he had known earlier that Mu Yun and his girlfriend were so terrifying and that they were related to Zhu Ziyan, he would have made a move much earlier.

Who knows, I might even get a favor from them.

As for Xu Chun and the elf investigators who came with him, they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their faces turning deathly pale.

As members of the Inspection Department, and located in Beihe Province, a place close to the capital, how could they not recognize one of the highest leaders of the Inspection Department?

Zhu Ziyan showed no remorse for their actions, which clearly indicated that they were about to face a great disaster!

"You flatter me, King Zhu. I'm just benefiting from Duoduo's fame."

Mu Yun looked tenderly at Chi Duoduo, who was resting on the back of Deraqion.

If it weren't for Chi Duoduo's outburst, he wouldn't have gotten into serious trouble, but he would have certainly caused some trouble.

Although there are no security issues, it is still a bit of a hassle.

"Humble and polite, neither servile nor arrogant, our inspection department has truly gained a promising talent!"

Zhu Ziyan glanced at Mu Yun, then at Deraqion beside him and Chi Duoduo on her back.

"Lord Lü, are you interested in bringing your disciple to our patrol department?" Zhu Ziyan asked.

"Of course I'd be happy to, but the specifics depend on Duoduo's own thoughts. She's grown up now and has to make her own decisions."

Lu Shouchun said with a smile.

Zhu Ziyan nodded and said nothing more.

Since he had seen the members of the Divine Servant lineage, he would naturally try to bring them into the Inspection Department.

But there's no rush to do this.

After all, with her master Lü Shouchun's approval and Mu Yun, whose relationship with her was clearly different, present, Chi Duoduo probably wouldn't refuse.

When Zhu Ziyan realized that he had only intended to follow Xu Dian to see what his next move would be, but instead he had suddenly received an even bigger surprise, he almost burst out laughing.

The Divine Servant Clan: It has been many years since the Yanhuang Alliance has seen a new Divine Servant Clan appear.

Moreover, they are from the Divine Servant Clan who successfully summoned a divine beast.

Although this divine beast is not at a high level right now, it will surely become a god in the future given enough time!

As for how long it will take?

That doesn't matter.

In any case, divine beasts don't die of old age. As long as their direct bloodline exists, divine beasts can be passed down from generation to generation and continue to exist.

The most urgent task is to build a good relationship and win this young couple over to become allies...

Thinking of this, Zhu Ziyan looked at Xu Chun and the others kneeling on the ground, trembling so much that they didn't dare to look up.

This "relationship" is right in front of us!

"The Xu family of Beihe Province neglected their duty in guarding the Silver Steel Secret Realm, resulting in the loss of a quasi-god-like clan. A large number of Steel-type Pokémon were stolen from within. The current clan leader not only failed to make amends but also attempted to cover it up by replacing the stolen items with inferior ones... The former clan leader, Xu Dian, attempted to use his power to oppress others and frame innocent students... Xu Chun of the Xu family, as a third-level commander of the patrol department, abused his power for personal gain, knowingly broke the law, formed cliques, and intended to persecute the innocent..."

Zhu Ziyan announced loudly, his voice steady, each word striking Xu Chun's heart like a heavy hammer.

The worst-case scenario did indeed occur.

Although the Silver Steel Secret Realm is privately owned by the Xu family, pseudo-legendary Pokémon are extremely rare, and the League naturally cannot completely ignore it.

Therefore, as soon as the problem was discovered, Zhu Ziyan personally led a team to investigate the situation.

As the deputy minister of the inspection department and a regional kingpin, he was virtually invincible in Beihe Province, a region close to the capital.

In just a few days, the truth was easily uncovered.

He originally planned to severely punish the Xu family after returning home, and also arrange for people to completely seize the Silver Steel Secret Realm. Unexpectedly, he discovered Xu Dian and Xu Chun's strange behavior and followed them.

Firstly, to prevent them from becoming desperate and doing something irrational.

Secondly, I also wanted to take a look at the new trainee investigators recruited by headquarters.

Unexpectedly, I stumbled upon a great bargain!

Now he had no choice but to act first and inform the authorities later, stating his intention to eliminate the Xu family.

Anyway, it's all the same: confiscation of property, sentencing, imprisonment, and being forced to eat peanuts. It doesn't matter if it's sooner or later.

It can also win over new divine servants, killing two birds with one stone!

With Zhu Ziyan's words, the Xu family's downfall was inevitable.

Although Zhao Xuan hated the Xu family, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow as he watched the once-powerful Xu family suddenly collapse.

Xu Dian was a man of considerable standing, yet he did something so foolish in his later years, earning him a bad reputation even after his death.

How sad.

"Young friend Mu, is there any other grievance you wish to add?" Zhu Ziyan asked with a smile.

"King Zhu's keen insight is truly admirable!"

What other grievances does Mu Yun have?

Those who have been wronged have long been silenced.

He even suspected that Zhu Ziyan might also suspect that he was involved in the theft of the quasi-god, but was too lazy to say so.

If that's the case, then the Alliance's understanding of the legendary Pokémon is probably far more complex than it appears on the surface.

"Finally, I ask that you all keep today's events confidential."

As he spoke, Zhu Ziyan withdrew his gaze, took out a piece of cloth that looked like brocade from inside his clothes, and waved it in the air.

In an instant, the brocade cloth flew into the air, magnified tenfold, and its radiance was like fire, shining brightly. The light, like transparent flames, almost enveloped everyone present.

Why is it "almost"?

Because when this fiery glow fell near Mu Yun and Chi Duoduo, it was as if a transparent film blocked it.

"Eyes~~"

(A familiar power, it seems to be that stubborn white dragon.)

De Lackey commented.

Mu Yun seemed to be deep in thought.

White Dragon, a true dragon with dragon and fire attributes, Reshiram?

Based on the background of the game or anime from my previous life, it wasn't some mythical beast with only a name like the Three Holy Swords.

Even within the entire pantheon of divine beasts, it is a powerful being that ranks extremely high.

It has both class and capability.

The alliance is indeed not as simple as it seems.
