The Shadow Demon Spirit beca part of Nirvana’s collection. Ever since mastering the Power of the Undead, it developed a habit of collecting the corpses of powerful Star Beasts.
However, at this mont, you can’t entirely bla it, as transforming powerful Star Beast corpses into undead would increase their strength.
Chu Chen stepped forward and patted Nirvana’s insect legs, smiling as he praised, "Well done, your strength hasn’t regressed."
Hearing Chu Chen’s praise, Nirvana happily wiggled its antennae, eyes full of enjoynt.
Just then, a round of applause broke the cheerful atmosphere.
Following the sound, Chu Chen looked over and suddenly saw a cyan Flood Dragon appear mid-air, with a burly middle-aged man on its back.
Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly turned to Su Zixuan beside him and asked, "Sister Zixuan, did he see everything?"
Su Zixuan nodded upon hearing and said, "More or less. Should we silence him?"
Chu Chen was startled upon hearing this and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Don’t be impulsive, we’re not villains."
Their conversation was not deliberately hushed, so the other party naturally heard it clearly.
"I’ve seen Lord Bai. I am Chu Chen, commander under Commander Zhang."
The newcor was naturally Bai Lei, who showed no surprise upon hearing Chu Chen’s self-introduction, clearly having already guessed Chu Chen’s identity.
"Are you that parachuted commander?" Bai Lei asked in a deep voice.
Chu Chen nodded and replied, "Sort of."
Bai Lei gently nodded upon hearing this and then turned his gaze to Su Zixuan.
His eyes narrowed sharply, and his expression imdiately turned serious.
Despite being a strong mid-Emperor Level, he couldn’t discern the depth of this beautiful lady in front of him.
His gaze shifted back and forth between Chu Chen and Su Zixuan, and after a mont of silence, he coldly asked, "Who exactly are you, and what’s your purpose here on the front line?"
Chu Chen waved his hand upon hearing this and said, "General Bai, don’t misunderstand, I am absolutely loyal to the Alliance. I ca to the front line only for training."
Hearing this, Bai Lei imdiately frowned, staring intently at Chu Chen and coldly said, "I don’t believe you. Tell , who are you really?"
Before Chu Chen could respond, Su Zixuan suddenly released her full Emperor Eighth Rank Peak aura.
Bai Lei’s expression changed dramatically upon seeing this, staring hard at Su Zixuan and coldly said, "How dare you, this is the front line."
Su Zixuan, upon hearing this, suddenly laughed.
"No need to be nervous, General Bai, my lord did not lie. We are rely here for training. The identity of my lord is not for you to explore, and I’m sure the old marshal already knows our identity. Otherwise, how could he let us stay in this camp?"
Bai Lei’s expression was full of shock upon hearing this, as this powerful individual actually addressed the young man in front of him as ’lord,’ hinting at a frightening identity for this young man.
After a mont, Bai Lei said in a deep voice, "I’ll tentatively believe you, but I will keep an eye on you. If you do anything to harm the Cyan Dragon Army, I won’t let you off." With that, he left on the Flood Dragon.
Seeing this, Chu Chen said with interest, "Sister Zixuan, it seems General Bai isn’t afraid of you?"
Hearing this, Su Zixuan rolled her eyes at Chu Chen and said, "What do you know, this is his territory! If I make a move, I won’t benefit, besides, I was only scaring him a little, or else he would certainly force you to reveal your identity."
Chu Chen replied with a smile, "I was just joking, you don’t have to take it so seriously."
Su Zixuan, upon hearing this, softly "hmphed" before leaving first.
Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly followed. Now with Lei Yao and other beasts’ combat power down to less than ten percent, if he encountered a strong enemy, he might be in trouble here.
Upon returning to the camp, Chu Chen imdiately went into a ditation state to replenish the Soul Power he had just consud.
At this mont, Zhang Yuyan arrived at Bai Lei’s tent to report the battle’s details.
As Bai Lei listened, his frown deepened, as Chu Chen played a pivotal role throughout the battle, not only wiping out the whole 150,000-beast horde but also slaying an Emperor-level Star Beast.
After all, he had witnessed the battle between Nirvana and the Shadow Demon Spirit.
However, his side also suffered significant losses. Yan Xiang’s unit was nearly wiped out; all positions above the captain perished in battle, with less than ten thousand soldiers remaining from the fifty thousand veterans.
Bai Lei had a faint feeling that such a miserable outco for Yan Xiang’s unit was likely orchestrated by Chu Chen.
However, he had no evidence, and given the other party’s undoubtedly terrifying identity, offending him could be hugely troubleso later.
With the rits Chu Chen achieved tonight, a promotion was well-deserved.
Yet, his identity was special, and today, he had just been parachuted to the command position, and in just one day, he was to be promoted to Grand Commander.
Such a rapid promotion seed unbelievable. However, given his ability to slay an Emperor-level Star Beast, his prowess was formidable, and such talent as a re commander seed beneath him.
After much thought, Bai Lei felt a headache, rubbing his brows, and suddenly had an idea.
Faced with such a difficult problem, it was best to leave it to higher-ups to decide, so no one was offended, and he could even gain a reputation for recomnding talents.
With this in mind, he imdiately began writing.
The next morning, Bai Lei, sowhat weary, stepped out of his tent.
Shortly after, he stopped in front of a large tent and inford the guard of his purpose.
Soon after, a slightly hoarse laugh ca from within the tent.
"Xiaobai, it’s been a while. Co in quickly."
Upon hearing this, Bai Lei didn’t dare delay and hurriedly entered the tent.
Inside, an elder with white hair sat at a desk, reviewing docunts.
Seeing this, Bai Lei quickly and respectfully saluted, "Greetings to Commander Zhang."
The elder before him was Zhang Yuyan’s grandfather, Zhang Tianlong.
"No need for formalities. Just speak up."
Upon hearing this, Bai Lei quickly handed over the letter in his hand.
Zhang Tianlong, noticing this, revealed a hint of surprise but smiled as he said, "Didn’t expect it to be so formal; it seems this matter is quite significant."
Opening the letter, Zhang Tianlong began to read it carefully.
Bai Lei watched him nervously from the side.
A mont later, Zhang Tianlong slowly closed the letter, a slight smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.
"That little rascal is indeed restless. I intended to have Yan Xiang act as a whetstone for Yuyan, but he dealt with it himself. Well, I believe Yuyan can learn a lot from him, so Yan Xiang didn’t die in vain," Zhang Tianlong said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Bai Lei’s expression changed suddenly, and he quickly cupped his hands and said, "It’s my negligence; please punish , Commander."
Hearing this, Zhang Tianlong waved his hand and said, "There’s no fault of yours. In fact, I should thank you. Without your protection of Yuyan, she might not have been able to secure the position of Grand Commander."
"Commander jokes too much. The young lady has exceptional talent, I’ve rely provided so support. However, this Chu Chen is extrely mysterious, and with a late-Emperor powerful protector alongside him, I’m afraid his intentions might not be good."
Zhang Tianlong laughed again upon hearing this.
"You needn’t worry about this matter. I’m well aware of this kid’s background; I just didn’t expect him to grow so quickly, truly astonishing. This ti, he’s achieved significant rits, so let him take Yan Xiang’s position. I’m sure before long, he’ll be on par with you."
Bai Lei couldn’t help but be stunned upon hearing this, not expecting the commander to give him such a high evaluation.
"By the way, one last piece of advice: do not attempt to probe his identity. If any issues arise, even I won’t be able to protect you."
Bai Lei’s complexion changed upon hearing this, and he quickly thanked Zhang Tianlong, "Thank you for the advice, Commander. I understand what to do."
"Mm, go on with your tasks."
After leaving the tent, Bai Lei quickly returned to his tent.
Soon after, news of Chu Chen’s promotion to Grand Commander spread within the Third Army.
"Tie Niu, have you heard?" Li Jun hurriedly asked as he rushed into Tie Niu’s tent.
"Heard what?"
"Of course, it’s about Commander Chu’s promotion to Grand Commander."
"Of course, I’ve heard. Is there anyone in our Third Army who hasn’t heard by now?"
"Commander Chu is incredible; on his first day on the front line, he beca a Grand Commander. This promotion speed is probably unprecedented and never to be repeated."
Li Tie Niu nodded upon hearing this, "It’s quite normal. Given Commander Chu’s strength, holding the position of Grand Commander is nothing."
Recalling last night’s battle, Li Jun nodded in agreent, "Indeed, I’ve heard of geniuses who can fight across a major level, but to continue doing so after reaching King Level, I’ve never heard of it. This ti, I learned sothing new."
Similar conversations were spreading throughout the Cyan Dragon Army.
