Chapter 703 Xu Tianyuan: How can I lose when I have a large army at my command?
White Tiger Army Camp.
The members of the Shrek Inspection Team sat quietly in their assigned tents, cultivating. Before receiving Elder Xuan's instructions, they needed to keep themselves in peak condition to avoid encountering battles later.
Elder Xuan, along with Ma Xiaotao and Han Ruoruo, sat in Dai Hao's tent, eagerly awaiting Ye Nanxiao's next signal.
One cup of tea after another was drunk, and Elder Xuan and the others waited quietly without saying a word, while Ma Xiaotao was getting restless.
She kept glancing at the map of the Mingdou Mountains hanging in the tent, her eyes searching the mountains for possible locations where the Sun Moon Empire's troops might be stationed.
"Xiao Tao, calm down!" Elder Xuan glanced at the anxious Ma Xiao Tao.
"Elder Xuan!" Ma Xiaotao retorted, "Xiao Xiaozi still hasn't received a signal. Don't we have any backup plans?"
"No," Elder Xuan said calmly, his eyes as still as a deep well.
In fact, there was a backup plan: he would go berserk and tear apart the Mingdou Mountains.
However, if that were to actually happen, it would be tantamount to Shrek Academy declaring war on the Sun Moon Empire, escalating the conflict to the national level, and the consequence would be the loss of countless lives.
Elder Xuan appeared unusually calm, but in reality, the soul power within him was like a suppressed volcano, ready to erupt at any moment.
Ma Xiaotao looked at Elder Xuan, hesitant to speak. She vaguely sensed Elder Xuan's thoughts, but Han Ruoruo tugged at her sleeve, so she had no choice but to sit down.
The Star Shattering Douluo sat cross-legged with an air of composure, much like Elder Xuan, his soul power on the verge of exploding at any moment.
Dai Hao stared intently at the topographical map of the Mingdou Mountains, carefully searching for every possible hiding place for enemies.
The hourglass on the table slowly ticked away, and the atmosphere inside the tent grew increasingly tense.
"Tick-tock!"
The sound of a water droplet hitting the ground was so abrupt in the silent tent.
Han Ruoruo glanced around. They were inside a tent, so where was the sound of dripping water coming from?
Everyone realized the problem, and then Ma Xiaotao suddenly got excited and took out a soul-guided communicator from her storage ring.
"This is!" Elder Xuan recognized it at a glance as a communicator specially made by Ye Nanxiao.
"It's Xiaoxiaozi!" Ma Xiaotao exclaimed excitedly after reading the message.
Seeing Ma Xiaotao's excited appearance, everyone realized what was going on and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere in the tent immediately dissipated.
"What did that kid say?" Elder Xuan slowly straightened up, making a crackling sound.
"Xiao Xiaozi said... uh... he successfully infiltrated the enemy and is ready to take action?" Ma Xiaotao's lips twitched slightly. Infiltrating the enemy could be considered as successfully negotiating as a diplomatic envoy, but is it about preparing to take action?
"Alright, that kid should leave us a signal. Xiao Tao, come with me and we're about to set off. Ruo Ruo, gather the team. Shattered Star Douluo, White Tiger Duke, these kids are in your hands now." Elder Xuan put away the wine gourd on his waist, carried the Taotie Bone on his back, and his muscles bulged. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a two-meter-tall strong man.
"yes!"
Everyone sprang into action instantly, and Elder Xuan led Ma Xiaotao back to the massive mountain wall known as the sheer cliff.
"Xiao Tao, try to release your senses. That brat should have left something behind," Elder Xuan said.
"Okay!" Ma Xiaotao immediately closed her eyes, and a flame ignited between her eyebrows.
The headquarters of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentors.
Ye Nanxiao did not expect that the Royal Dragon Soul Instructor Corps would choose to set up its base at the junction of two mountain ranges, and it seemed that a large flat area had been carved out by force.
Xu Fei continued punching and kicking at the air, spouting phrases with extremely high profanity, one of which was particularly clear: "You made me miss out on a great reward!"
Ye Nanxiao dug a small hole in a tree, condensed a small light blue ice block and threw it in, then continued to follow behind Xu Fei, not forgetting to put the Soul-Binding Handcuffs back on his hands.
Seeing that Xu Fei had completely fallen into the mental trap created by Ye Nanxiao, the Shadow Hound and Shadow Snake, who were following behind, simply revealed themselves and swaggered a few meters behind.
"What's your brother-in-law doing?" Shadow Mastiff asked.
"I don't know, but we'd better not touch it." Shadow Serpent shook her head and said. She knew some information about Ye Nanxiao and knew that her martial soul was the ultimate ice. She could vaguely tell that Ye Nanxiao had just condensed a block of ice containing pure soul power.
"After catching your breath for so long, it's time to go inside." Ye Nanxiao carved a hidden symbol on another tree and waved to Xu Fei.
Xu Fei finally stopped, coldly snorting, "You're smart enough to beg for mercy from your grandpa Xu Fei! Get lost! Don't waste my time!"
From his perspective, the wounded Star Luo envoy was begging for mercy with tears streaming down his face and calling him "Grandpa Xu Fei," which made him very happy.
With his hands behind his back and head held high, Xu Fei strode into the vicinity of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Corps.
The two Soul Masters guarding the gate immediately bowed when they saw Xu Fei.
"Captain Xu Fei!"
Xu Fei nodded calmly, and as he passed one of the men, he patted him on the shoulder. "Work hard, and you'll all be in my position someday. See? I brought back a great achievement; the commander will definitely reward me!"
The two Soul Masters looked at Ye Nanxiao, who had an indifferent expression and whose hands were bound by Soul-Binding Handcuffs, and their eyes immediately filled with admiration as they looked at Xu Fei.
"This guy's pretty good at making empty promises, huh?"
Ye Nanxiao followed behind Xu Fei, watching the guy chat with many Soul Masters along the way. The sentence he said most often was, "Work hard, and you can bring back a great achievement like me today."
Just as Ye Nanxiao had guessed, Xu Fei's surname was Xu, and he really did have some connection with Xu Tianyuan.
Xu Fei led Ye Nanxiao forward, passing several large block buildings, and walked straight into the command center of the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps.
"Uncle! Look what great achievement I've brought back!" Xu Fei shouted as he stepped into the tent, completely disregarding the other generals inside.
Upon seeing Xu Fei enter, all the generals fell silent, their gazes passing over Xu Fei and landing on Ye Nanxiao.
Xu Tianyuan ignored Xu Fei's little schemes, leaned back on a silver throne, and asked, "Whom did you bring back?"
The latest novel is first published here!
Xu Fei smiled smugly and said, "This is the envoy sent by Xingluo to negotiate peace with us! He was originally taken away by that woman Ju Zi, but I brought him back later!"
"Oh? An envoy from Xingluo? This young lad?" Xu Tianyuan became slightly interested, sat up straight, and scanned Ye Nanxiao with his gaze.
Ye Nanxiao sensed the killing intent emanating from Xu Tianyuan and quickly pretended to be frightened, his body trembling slightly.
Taking in Ye Nanxiao's reaction, Xu Tianyuan seemed quite satisfied with his intimidation, and mocked, "Is Xingluo out of people? They only sent you, a nobody? Is Dai Hao afraid of the might of my Imperial Dragon? Sending out a suicide ghost?"
The generals, being seasoned veterans, naturally knew that they had to cooperate with Xu Tianyuan at this moment. They all laughed and made mocking and threatening expressions and gestures towards Ye Nanxiao.
"You! If you damage the relationship between our two countries, can you bear the consequences?!" Ye Nanxiao's face flushed red with anger, his expression a mixture of fear and rage.
"Relations between the two countries? Hmph! If it weren't for His Majesty's pity for your Star Luo Empire, would Dai Hao have been able to withstand my Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps?" Xu Tianyuan scoffed coldly.
He had dealt with Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger many times and held such a warrior in contempt.
"Xu Fei, you did a good job. Go and collect your reward." Xu Tianyuan smiled at Xu Fei.
Xu Fei grinned crookedly, bowed to Xu Tianyuan, and then ran out excitedly. The scene before him was exactly the same as the scene he had just dreamed of. Didn't that mean that the reward he missed in his dream could now be obtained?
In the beautiful dream woven for him by Ye Nanxiao, he was given the opportunity to choose a reward from Xu Tianyuan's treasure trove.
As the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Group, Xu Tianyuan had followed Xu Tianran for many years, and the wealth he had amassed was astronomical. His treasure trove contained all sorts of treasures.
Xu Fei rubbed his hands together and looked at the temporary warehouse where Xu Tianyuan stored the rewards. The scene in front of him suddenly trembled for a moment, then returned to normal.
However, Xu Fei didn't care about this trivial matter; for him, getting the reward was the most important thing right now!
Just as Xu Fei was heading to the temporary warehouse, he passed by a block building and suddenly remembered that in his dream, the ground of this building seemed to have cracked and the fixing nails buried in it seemed to have moved.
Xu Fei leaned closer to the place in his dream and took a closer look, discovering that there were indeed some problems.
So Xu Fei took out a repair tool and started fixing it against the corner of the wall.
"Captain Xu Fei, what's going on?" a patrolling soldier ran over and asked.
Xu Fei waved his hand and said, "I received a reward from my uncle, so naturally I have to do something to live up to the reward he gave me."
The entire Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps already knew that Xu Fei's uncle was Xu Tianyuan because of his arrogance. Most of the captains and generals would ignore or take a detour when they saw Xu Fei.
Under the subtle influence of his superior, the patrolling soldier only glanced at the repaired corner of the wall before leaving silently.
Repairing block buildings is usually the responsibility of punished soldiers, and Xu Fei's actions were most likely due to being punished, but he insisted on doing his part to save face.
The patrolling soldier ran back to his post, gave Xu Fei's retreating figure a disdainful look, and walked away whispering jokes with his companion.
Just after the patrolling soldier left, Xu Fei stared at the damaged corner, took out the grenade Ye Nanxiao had given him and stuffed it in as a repair material, muttering, "How can there be such a big hole? These people really don't know how to cherish what they use. Luckily, I have a lot of repair materials in my storage soul tool."
After saying that, Xu Fei dug out another hole and stuffed a grenade inside.
