Disaster!
Disaster!”
It was dusk, and i Fei was having dinner with his entire family.
He had to admit that ever since his wife had brought their children to join him at the Frontier Army, his days were as comfortable as they could possibly be.
During the day, he ordered his subordinates to report all official matters to him, which he then handed over to Deputy General Wang Lihui to handle, while he himself took the children around the camp for a look.
alti was a ti of warmth and joy for the family of six.
Especially every ti i Fei looked at his daughter, flower of eighteen, blooming into beauty like a fresh lotus out of water, he wondered which undeserving rascal would benefit from her in the future.
Just when he was at his happiest, the voice of his subordinate, Tong Piyan, ca from outside.
i Fei frowned and glared at Tong Piyan, who had rushed in flustered, and snapped, “What’s the matter?”
“Grand Commander-in-Chief, it’s bad news, Tian Juhua…
he’s dead.”
Upon hearing this, i Fei knew that a major incident had occurred.
He stood up and asked his wife to continue the al with the children, while he, together with Tong Piyan, left the sleeping tent.
“Speak slowly and clearly, do not miss a single word—what exactly happened?
Didn’t I have you lure Maxim to the Lingwu Army, then expose Zhang San and finally kill Zhang San?
How did Tian Juhua end up dead?”
Tong Piyan said with a face full of sorrow, “According to the original plan, indeed everything was done according to your instructions.
I lured Maxim’s n to that village nearby, and Tian Juhua was ambushed next to it, waiting for Zhang San to reveal himself.
And Zhang San, indeed, arrived at the village and clashed with Maxim’s n.”
i Fei asked curiously, “If Zhang San and Maxim’s n did engage in combat, with the protection around Maxim, there is no reason why Zhang San couldn’t be killed!
Not to ntion the so-called Twenty-Eight Spirit Platform Guards, which are twenty-eight Spiritual Platform Realm experts guarding him, there was also a Divine Aspect expert from the Tujue, a Grand Offerer of Purple Mansion Realm.
Killing Zhang San should have been as easy as pie.”
Tong Piyan sighed reluctantly and said, “But what we never expected was that Feng Zhenghao, the Hall Master of Wind Divine Hall, arrived.
He is also of Purple Mansion Realm, and he engaged the protectors of Maxim right away, and my scouts later found out that Feng Zhenghao actually killed the Grand Offerer from Tujue!”
Hearing this, i Fei gasped.
He knew that with Zhang San handling the Town Martial Office branch, the Lingwu Army would definitely benefit.
Now, with the Hall Master of Wind Divine Hall personally defeating a Purple Mansion Realm expert, if this accomplishnt were attributed to the Lingwu Army, wouldn’t Changsun Bubai be overjoyed?
“But what does this have to do with the death of Tian Juhua?
Tian Juhua wouldn’t be foolish enough to go help the Tujue against Zhang San!”
Tong Piyan, upon hearing i Fei’s prophetic question, seed almost ready to cry.
“Grand Commander-in-Chief!
We all underestimated Zhang San’s boldness.
After encountering Maxim, Zhang San truly intended to kill him, and was even preparing to deliver a fatal blow.
At that mont, with the Purple Mansion Realm bodyguard entangled by Feng Zhenghao, and the other Tujue experts outmatched by Zhang San…that’s when…
that’s when Tian Juhua stepped out and yelled for them to stop!”
“As a result, Zhang San mistook him for an ambush from the Tujue forces and shot an arrow at Tian Juhua, which killed him on the spot!”
Hearing this, i Fei was greatly shocked.
“Wait!
You’re saying Zhang San killed Tian Juhua with a single arrow?
Tian Juhua was at least of Spiritual Platform Realm, and although his skills were diocre, he shouldn’t have been killed by a single arrow from Zhang San, right?”
Tong Piyan, recalling that scene, shook his head repeatedly.
“Grand Commander-in-Chief, you don’t understand.
When Zhang San shot that arrow, I even saw two Divine Aspect illusions behind him.”
Upon hearing this, and coupling it with the intelligence collected recently about Zhang San, i Fei imdiately realized that those must have been the Divine Aspect illusions nurtured from the Divine Treasures within Zhang San’s Five Viscera Wheel Seas.
It’s said that a Cultivator who practices the Five Viscera Wheel Seas and fully develops the Divine Treasures uncovered can achieve complete awakening.
After awakening, when deploying the Divine Aspect Illusion in battle, its power was even no weaker than that of the Spirit Platform Illusion.
Having sensed Zhang San’s terrifying strength and thinking of his mind full of calculations, i Fei increasingly felt that Zhang San was not easy to deal with.
“And what happened after that?
Zhang San didn’t really kill Maxim, did he?”
By now, i Fei had co to realize that Tian Juhua’s death was simply deserved; after all, the tacit understanding amongst the entire Northern Boundary Army was that Maxim could not be killed, but such matters couldn’t be openly acknowledged.
Therefore, Tian Juhua’s death was in vain at best, and one could only call it a misunderstanding.
But if Maxim had truly died, the entire borderlands might face grave troubles.
“Grand Commander-in-Chief, I was on a distant mountain at the ti and saw all this, but afterwards, Zhang San led his n in pursuit of Maxim, so I don’t know what ultimately happened to him.”
i Fei frowned slightly and, after pondering for a mont, instructed, “Go find Wang Lihui, tell him the Shuofang Army needs to strengthen their defenses.
Scouts should investigate sixty miles further north, and if there is any sign of Tujue activity, report it imdiately!”
“Yes.”
anwhile, in the Lingwu Army’s camp, Changsun Bubai and Li Wude, seeing Zhang San and Li Xuanmin finally return, felt their hearts, which had risen to their throats, finally settle down.
“You two, are you alright?”
Zhang San replied with a faint smile, “What could be possibly wrong with ?
It’s just that Maxim was shot to death by one of my arrows!
Exhilarating!”
Li Xuanmin boasted proudly, “Master, it was I who broke through his Body-Protection Talisman in the end.
If you consider it, I also made a ritorious contribution!”
Changsun Bubai was about to praise the two when he heard this and was completely stunned.
Not just Changsun Bubai, even the color drained from Li Wude’s face.
“My lord, you’re not joking, are you?”
Zhang San looked at Li Wude, and with a smile, said, “How can matters of military rits be taken as a joke?
Rest assured, Maxim is truly dead, and Li Xuanmin really did assist ritoriously.
Military Envoy, when reporting, you must not let your future son-in-law go uncredited just because you want to pretend to be incorruptible!”
At this mont, Changsun Bubai felt like crying.
“Zhang San…
I…
you…
ah…
this…
Never mind, I’ll go write the morial now!”
Changsun Bubai knew that this matter had to be made known to Kaihuang imdiately.
It was not to receive comndations but to have Kaihuang issue orders for the Frontier Army to prepare for war, as the Tujue people might soon be attacking!
anwhile, in Khan Muzhen’s tent, Muzhen the Khan cried over his brother’s corpse for a full two-hours, his eyes swollen from tears.
Finally, with the State Preceptor’s assistance, he left and returned to his own sleeping tent.
“Khan, try not to be overly saddened.
I have heard that to the west of the grasslands lies a Buddhist Kingdom called Great Jade Heaven.
Inside Great Jade Heaven there are countless treasures, including many Spirit Pills and magical dicines.
Among them is the Undying dicine, which can bring the dead back to life upon consumption!”
Hearing this, Khan Muzhen, his eyes swollen almost shut, felt a sudden glow appear in his eyes.
“Buddhist Kingdom Great Jade Heaven?
State Preceptor, have orders sent out, notify all the tribes of the grasslands to prepare their most elite warriors!
Three days—no, tomorrow—I will personally lead an expedition to Great Jade Heaven, to condemn Buddha and plunder the Buddhist Kingdom!”
