Later, while waiting, he received news that Lu Yuan had surprisingly made an engagement with the traitorous Poison Sect to marry their Inborn Saintess Lan Cai'er.
Needless to say, when this news reached Shangguan Ming, he was infuriated.
Putting aside his plans to marry his daughter to Lu Yuan and the resentment from losing an excellent prospective son-in-law, he was also furious at the feeling of being played.
Now, about the Poison Sect - these rebels had managed to stir Dongting County into its current disastrous state, and even the court's current difficult situation couldn't deny their achievements.
However, their General of the Southern Expedition would disregard all of this, privately reconcile with the rebels, and even form a marriage alliance.
What was he trying to do?
Did he want to emulate the Poison Sect and plot a rebellion?
Shangguan Ming thought that General Lu Yuan, having broken through to the Inborn realm, had become too arrogant.
