Mountain Patrol Military Officer-Chapter 425 - 341: Return to Qingshan (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Chapter 425: Chapter 341: Return to Qingshan (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Twenty miles outside Tianxiong Pass.

The atmosphere was quite bizarre.

A Martial Vault expert specifically waited on the road to intercept Chen Yuan, claiming to admire his grace and wishing to make his acquaintance!

He had already thought of every possible way to handle trouble, but he didn’t anticipate this scenario.

His gaze then became playful.

With his current situation, he did not know how many people he had offended, and even the Court probably had his name marked, and yet someone dared to associate with him?

Observing that the other’s bamboo hat was covered with a layer of accumulated snow, it seemed he had been waiting for a while.

Chen Yuan became interested; after all, it’s rare to encounter a wild Martial Vault master. Thus, he stepped into the air, garments fluttering, and landed on the top of that peak, standing three meters away from the bamboo-hat Martial Vault master.

"When did Your Excellency start waiting here?"

"Yesterday at 7 p.m."

"Oh? That’s quite surprising. You, being a Martial Vault master and free to roam the world, stop me, a General, to seek an opportunity? I can’t think of a reason." While speaking, Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered with a pale golden light, sizing up the other. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

The person had bright double pupils, eyebrows shaped like the character ’八’, a bronze complexion, a finely bristled chin, a face hardened by the elements, wore a plain grey hemmed hemp robe, a neck wrapped with black cloth, in simple attire.

But within his body, his vitality surged like a river, his Elixir Field Furnace was intensely vibrant.

Under Chen Yuan’s Dharma Eye, in the temples of this man’s five internal organs, one yellow and one green divine lights were ignited, indicating that the two Divine Treasures were aroused, his strength was exceptional.

This person had introduced himself as a wanderer of the Worldly Society, but Chen Yuan didn’t believe him, his tone carrying an edge.

The other, this self-named Yu Wenguang Martial Vault master, after hearing Chen Yuan’s words, slightly raised his eyebrows with a deep and meaningful tone:

"The General seems to underestimate himself; in yesterday’s battle, within the midst of tens of thousands, you defeated three Martial Vaults from the Three Families, matched the Demon Suppression Envoy, and even resisted the Dragon and Tiger. Your elegance astonished the Heroic Pass, this deed will soon spread across the Court and Worldly Society. By then, everyone will recognize you, General!"

"By then, who in the world wouldn’t know you?"

"Also, I deeply admire the exploits of the General on the Demon Battlefield. Like the General, I hold no reverence for the Court. The General has fought for Shu, bathed in blood on the battlefield, yet received this kind of mistreatment; it truly is undeserved."

First, this person uplifted Chen Yuan, and then voiced grievances for Chen Yuan. However, his words gradually revealed a different intention.

Chen Yuan, keen-minded, naturally noticed it. It seemed the other was about to discuss the main issue.

"Your Excellency has said quite a lot; let’s get to the point, we need not bother with formalities."

He spoke lightly.

"The Nine Colonels are straightforward men, I won’t beat around the bush either. I roam the Worldly Society, making friends with like-minded individuals. Nowadays, with a foolish Court and rampant Demons, people suffer and corpses pile up; seeing this, we lament and strive fiercely, all for a clear and bright world."

"I admire the Nine Colonels’ spirit and wish to introduce the Nine Colonels to some like-minded friends, to lend each other support if needed in the future...."

Hearing this, Chen Yuan understood.

He initially thought that, by mentioning seeking an opportunity, the man intended to recommend himself to join his ranks. Instead, Chen Yuan had misunderstood; it was the other wanting to invite him to their side.

The underlying meaning in the other’s words showed an appreciation for Chen Yuan’s opposition to the Court’s army, indicating rebellion.

He didn’t wait for the other to finish, Chen Yuan replied playfully,

"From your words, are you and your companions planning to rebel?"

This remark made the other falter, not expecting Chen Yuan to be so direct; he then steadied his tone,

"The Heavens are unjust, the Earth is unequal; we are but swordsmen of the Worldly Society!"

Chen Yuan’s eyes immediately sparkled with amusement, "Your ambitions are admirable! Perfectly right now, Demons are wreaking havoc in Shu, people cannot make a living. This is just the right time for people like yourselves. You can tell your friends of the Worldly Society that they can go to the frontline at Chuanzhong Pass; I will wait for you there."

"This?"

The man named Yu Wenguang raised an eyebrow.

"Didn’t you say wielding swords in the Worldly Society, slaying Demons and supporting like minds, thus stopping me here? Why make it difficult instead?"

Yu Wenguang straightened his expression, "I sincerely invite the General, why must you play dumb with me?"

Chen Yuan’s face exhibited a sarcastic grin, "Truth is truth, falsehood is false. Next time when you stop me, remember to speak the truth; otherwise, it’s quite disheartening. I thought you really had that spirit of the Worldly Society."

"I still have military duties to attend to, let’s leave it at that."

Saying so, Chen Yuan stomped his foot and soared up, plunging into the circling Gu Diao above.

And that mountain peak, when he stomped the ground, exploded with a boom, scattering rocks everywhere.

The Martial Vault master quickly leaped to avoid the flying stones, shattering them one by one, then looked up as a streak of silver light flashed and disappeared into the distant horizon.

After Chen Yuan left, the man’s gaze turned dark.

Seconds later, after about ten breaths, two figures appeared in this void, standing on either side of Yu Wenguang.

One had a beard around his jaws, bulky like a black bear, and had flat reddish-yellow eyebrows; the other donned a Confucian cloth, dressed in a Confucian Robe, both exuding the aura of Martial Vaults.

The two newcomers looked in the direction where Chen Yuan disappeared, their eyes flickering.

"How did it go?" The man in the Confucian Robe asked.

"Need you ask, you can tell it was unsuccessful. As expected, didn’t think Shu would produce such a figure, crazier than old man here, I like him," the bearded man immediately responded, his voice like muffled thunder.

"Hmm, really crazy, if it were in Yan Land..." Yu Wenguang was somewhat annoyed.

"Looks like old Guo got gassed by that man, haha," the bearded man rejoiced in his misfortune.

And the man dressed as a scholar, a middle-aged man, patted the other on the shoulder, "Dear brother, do not be angered; we’re used to acting freely in Yan Land, but this is Shu. Since we can’t make friends, let’s not be enemies. This man, after this battle, will be unapproachable in Shu, especially with the protection of the Demon Suppression General here. Besides, we came to Shu just to seek opportunities. We just watched yesterday’s battle and tried to connect with this Colonel to see if we could walk the same path. Since it didn’t work out, we should follow the light and dust."
