"You stay by the boss's side. The boss's power is slowly transferring to you. Haven't you felt it? This trip to the capital, I'll go. No matter what happens, I'll bear it all!
The boss has done things all these years. Since they are blind and haven't seen it, I'll make them see! Today, the military is under the boss's command. It's not something they can interfere with!"
"The boss alone is enough to suppress the military's destiny!"
Yuan Gang hesitated, "This time, I will surely go and never return, facing nine deaths out of ten!"
Xuan Niao said proudly, "When have our military men ever lacked courage? If we don't return, then we don't return!"
This was a conversation between her and Yuan Gang back in Nan Province, at the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace.
At that time, the two had already planned everything, and in the time that followed, they had only refined this plan.
Xuan Niao smiled freely, "When I came to the capital, I was already prepared not to return. Perhaps I will be imprisoned even deeper than you, possibly on the nineteenth level."
This prison in the capital was specifically for detaining martial artists. It was built underground with nineteen levels. At least, since the construction of this prison, no one had ever been imprisoned on the nineteenth level.
"Although I don't know why you've been helping us, I'm willing to trust you this time. I also believe that if you don't do this after getting out, this world will have no place for you."
Xuan Niao said calmly. She had already decided on this matter, or rather, she and Yuan Gang had calculated every step. Now, it was just up to her side.
The Red Lotus Demoness suddenly laughed, "Hehehe, interesting, finally a bit interesting. Since that's the case, why not agree? But I'm very curious, how will you let me out?"
Xuan Niao sat on the stool and said calmly, "When I came, I knocked everyone here unconscious. You have five minutes now. The closest military garrison is also five minutes away. If you can't escape within these five minutes, then congratulations, you will once again become a war criminal here, and I will be arrested and dealt with for treason."
The Red Lotus Demoness finally stopped laughing. She glanced at Xuan Niao and deeply remembered her appearance.
"Don't worry, if you die, I will tell Ye Longlin everything you've done."
She didn't linger any longer, as staying would truly mean she wouldn't be able to leave.
After the Red Lotus Demoness left, Xuan Niao sat in her place, placed her hands on the table, and waited quietly.
Five minutes later, a group of heavily armed soldiers surrounded Xuan Niao. The warden walked over, rubbing his neck, his eyes filled with coldness.
"Xuan Niao, for you to be one of the Four Vajras of the Dragon Pavilion, do you know how much trouble your actions will bring to Da Xia? Do you know how many soldiers your actions will cause to fall? You dared to let go of the Eight Gods of the Dark Hall, are you tired of living?"
The warden roared angrily. Her current left hand was an artificial one, lost during the battle in the Hetu.
Now, she could only retreat to the second line.
"I have no intention of resisting."
The warden gritted her teeth in anger, her fists clenched, and she asked with red eyes, "Why!"
Xuan Niao lowered her head, "The matter has already happened. Is asking still useful?"
In the past, the Battle of Hetu resulted in over a million soldiers dead, with fewer than twenty thousand surviving. That battle had depleted all of the military's foundation, and four-star generals were now hard to come by.
She remembered how the four marshals, each leading a region, were so glorious back then!
But now, the older generation had fallen, and the younger generation had not yet grown. Only the Dragon Pavilion was holding the line, praised as a sacred land within the military.
Yet now, Xuan Niao, one of the Four Vajras of the Dragon Pavilion, had let the Red Lotus Demoness go!
If this news got out, it would surely cause an uproar!
"Take her to the nineteenth level. I'll go report."
The warden could only sigh in the end, hoping that the nearby garrison could find the person. If they couldn't, the trouble would be immense...
...
Jinling.
After a day and a night of fermentation, the Song family's affairs finally erupted completely in Jinling.
As one of the most prominent aristocratic families in Jinling, the Song family was directly slapped in the face. According to the information released by the Song family, no suitable person could be found. In the end, they were only engaged in some superficial projects.
They were all talk and no action.
However, this matter still caused quite a stir in Jinling.
Currently, Jinling had first the martial arts competition for marriage hosted by the Murong Royal Family, and then rumors spread that the God of War ranking would be revised at the end of this year. It was currently confirmed that this revision of the God of War ranking and the subsequent challenges would be held in Jinling.
Furthermore, it was confirmed by the capital that Ye Xingchen himself would participate, which made Jinling even more turbulent.
Adding to this, there was a challenge from Cao Ziwen, the ninth-ranked on the God of War list and a candidate for the Martial Arts Association, who was personally protected by the second elder of the Martial Arts Association.
Currently, there was no news from Cao Ziwen.
"You say, how big will this matter blow up? Who knows how big the fight between the military rankings and the Martial Arts Association will be? The old seniors of the military will definitely step in, so the question is, which old senior from the military will step in."
"There are so many old seniors in the military, who knows who will step in? Besides, the military now... it's hard to say. Except for the one at the very top who is said to be able to suppress the military's destiny with one person, who in the entire military dares to say they are undefeated?"
"That's right, a leader not yet thirty years old. This is truly amazing. At his age, he has already reached the pinnacle. Who wouldn't admire such a formidable person?"
Yes, in the entire military, besides him, who dares to claim invincibility?
The top of the military rankings!
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Did you hear? In an hour, General Cao Ziwen's car and the Martial Arts Association heir's car will arrive at the South Gate simultaneously. I expect there will be some good show to watch, hurry up and go!"
After this message was released, the entire Jinling went crazy. Countless people began to head towards the South Gate, waiting to watch the spectacle.
At this moment, quite a few people had already gathered outside the South Gate. Since these two individuals were meeting in such a manner, it was bound to cause conflict, so many people came to watch the show.
There was a lot of discussion.
At this moment, outside the South Gate, two cars were driving almost side by side, neither falling behind the other, maintaining a speed of sixty yards.
The South Gate was an old city gate, only allowing one car to pass. This was also the first confrontation between the two.
On the city wall, a figure wearing a large cloak stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching everything before him, as if nothing in his eyes held any color.
"Boss, Cao Ziwen has arrived."
