Chapter 338: A World Changed Easily

"Drive!"

"Speed it up!"

"Accelerate the progress, arrange what can be arranged first."

"Clang clang"

"......"

That night, the wind and snow did not cease.

In Southern City, on the ruins after the daytime battle, torches like dragons crackled and illuminated the cold night. The Divine Work Department of the Sky Patrol Department at Tianxiong Pass carried out "post-war" rapid reconstruction efforts.

A group of people exhibited the Earth Stone Divine Power, each fulfilling their roles, as temporary buildings sprung up from the ground to house the innocent civilians affected, since they could hardly withstand any turmoil in this snowy weather.

In the distance, the snow illuminated the night. On the collapsed Southern City Pass gate, the sound of the snow being stepped on "creaked" along with the sound of sails blowing in the wind.

At this moment, atop the city walls, three figures walked on the Southern City wall, looking down at the busy Soldier Armor in Southern City and the flickering flames everywhere, their expressions dim and uncertain in the firelight.

It was Chen Yuan, together with Colonels Wei Zhong and Wu Sheng.

The cold wind was biting, blowing the capes behind their armors and their thoughts into disarray.

Once the dust settled, the Demon Suppression General intervened forcefully, diverting all the troops sent by the Court and resolving the troubles, but nobody felt a trace of joy.

Because in this incident, there were no winners.

The situation in Shu was now severe, with undercurrents surging and chaos rampant. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

To the south, the Ten Evils might emerge at any time;

To the west, the Demon Suppression General only hinted at a problem, but the fact that this Great General had to appear suggested a significant trouble looming, unknown of what might occur.

Moreover, with the resurgence of Luck in Shu, various forces surged into Shu, mingling good with bad, conflicts were inevitable.

The Court, supposedly the backing of their local Overseers, remained silent when needed most, yet caused problems at this critical time, frustrating everyone.

Killing was simple, but blades clashing between Troops ultimately left a bitter taste.

"Sigh!"

A sigh.

"This incident has caused quite a stir, in fact, it started because of me, and probably alarmed the imperial Court, unfortunately involving you both."

Wei Zhong placed both hands on the city wall, looking at the distant firelight, sighed out a breath of white air; his gaze somewhat wandering, his chin’s beard frosted over, and there was still a scratch on his face.

He knew this trouble was big, even the Demon Suppression General and Dragon and Tiger powerhouses had to intervene, surely shaking the political halls. This matter was not over, but the consequences were not something he, a Taoist Soldier Colonel, could bear.

Initially, he was humiliated by Vanguard Army Gongyang Jianshan, blinded by anger, and then events turned out this way.

Chen Yuan turned his head, seeing this forty-something-year-old Colonel with a lost and confused expression, realizing this incident had also caused him considerable shock, his mind somewhat decayed.

Fighting desperately without much of a good outcome, and needing to fend off the aftermath effects, wasn’t that so?

However, Chen Yuan knew, it was ultimately because of him.

He pondered for a moment, "Don’t blame yourself; it’s my fault you both are involved, or rather, it can’t really be blamed on anyone."

Speaking, his gaze sparkled, "One can’t attribute others’ mistakes onto themselves; the root of this issue initially came from the scheming of the Three Families, who wanted to establish dominance the moment they arrived."

"Before I set out from Jingguan City, a woman in the Imperial Capital informed me of the Three Families’ intelligence, and I suspected this journey would not be peaceful."

"Since this issue has already been addressed by Heavenly General Qi Tian personally, General Wei you can set your mind at ease."

After he finished speaking, Jiange Pass’ Colonel Wu Sheng on the other side spoke with some curiosity,

"Nine Colonels, before the Great General left, did he give any instructions?"

The Demon Suppression General Qi Tian, this highest commander of Jiannan Road, displayed a formidable presence this time, giving Wu Sheng and the others a much-needed morale boost.

The previously sighing Wei Zhong also turned his head, his gaze inquiring.

Demon Suppression General Qi Tian had only appeared briefly, they had no chance, or rather were not qualified, to step forward to pay respects.

Chen Yuan nodded, not hiding from them, "The General appeared this time because there was trouble in the west. The General’s intention was to take away these troops dispatched by the Court."

Upon hearing this, both Wu Sheng and Wei Zhong’s expressions changed simultaneously.

Wu Sheng somewhat exclaimed, "A problem has also emerged at the Demon Country Border?"

Chen Yuan exhaled a breath of white air, shaking his head, "Not sure yet, the General did not elaborate much, but I feel it’s probably a big trouble; something seemed ominous in his words and tone."

Wei Zhong listened to this and put aside his desolation, frowning, "The Great General has been guarding the Demon Country Border all these years without any slip-ups. To say a problem has arisen now, it’s not good to speculate. However, if even the Great General cannot suppress it, it means the situation has reached a very dangerous point. We’ve only heard rumors that the Demon Country is like hell, but have never experienced it."

"Alas, it truly is a troubled autumn. Just lament that our Cultivation is weak, unable to help much. Even now, with Shu reviving and people from various places entering, it also has us flustered and lost. Nine Colonels, with this matter concluded, what are your plans?" Wu Sheng also sighed.

He was right; the current situation in Shu was such that their Cultivation as Prefecture Colonels was no longer enough to keep order. Heroes of the land entered, many powerful cultivators passing through like a barrage, where people gathered, the Worldly society existed with conflicts, they had already felt the difficulties of the current situation.

Chen Yuan naturally understood the difficulties in Wu Sheng’s words, and spoke softly:

"Before the Great General left, he ordered me to take command of the Government soldiers, to lead the Southern Front Battlefield of the Ten Thousand Mountains. After today’s incident, I am probably blacklisted by the Court, and the Great General did not indulge them either, we can no longer expect support from the Court, we can only rely on ourselves."
