Western Frontier Defense Line, Eastern Sector, five kilometers behind the fortress group, the Third Warrior Army’s headquarters.

Administration building, Corps Commander's office.

Uncle An, dressed as a butler, poured tea for the two people sitting across from each other on the coffee table and lit some incense. Then he bowed and left, closing the door.

On both sides of the coffee table, Zhang Luye and Zhang Yansheng sat opposite each other in silence for a long time.

Until, knock knock knock!

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Zhang Yansheng spoke solemnly.

Click, the door opened.

Zhang Pengcheng, wrapped in bandages and leaning on a crutch, moved in step by step.

Zhang Luye, who happened to be sitting diagonally across from the door, finally lost his temper when he saw his grandson injured like this. He shouted angrily, "My darling grandson is still in school, why did you let him go to the battlefield!"

Zhang Yansheng didn't even raise his eyelids. He waited until Zhang Pengcheng sat down with difficulty before saying, "Ask him himself."

Zhang Luye immediately turned his gaze towards Zhang Pengcheng, his eyes fierce yet concerned.

Zhang Pengcheng shrank his neck and said, "To serve the motherland!"

Zhang Luye exuded a sinister aura, his eyes like lightning as he stared at his grandson.

The pressure from Wu Xian instantly made the air in the entire office stagnant.

Zhang Pengcheng hesitated and didn't dare to speak.

"To serve the motherland?"

Zhang Yansheng chuckled and said, "He heard that I wanted Jiang Xue to join the Third Army, so he threw a tantrum at home and even secretly took a month off from school, insisting on coming here."

Zhang Luye heard this and instantly turned into an emoji of an elderly man on the subway...

Zhang Pengcheng glared at his father.

Zhang Yansheng took a sip of tea and laughed heartily: "What? Dare to do it but not take responsibility?"

"Dad! Can you please be more virtuous when you speak?"

Zhang Pengcheng's face turned red and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Zhang Luye finally came to his senses, slapped his thigh, and lamented the misfortune of his family.

It's okay for you to chase girls, but why chase a married woman?

The circle of China's top martial arts families is so small. If this matter gets out, how can Zhang Luye face people?

Zhang Luye was so angry that if his grandson hadn't been covered in wounds, he would have used his family rules to punish him.

But the hands cannot move, but the mouth can move.

In just a few minutes, the good grandson has become a "prodigal son", "waste", "evil animal", "little bastard", etc.

After Zhang Yansheng finished exposing his son's tricks, he watched the show for a while before speaking up to help Zhang Pengcheng out of the predicament.

He asked Zhang Luye, "You just sat here without saying a word when you arrived. What do you want to say?"

Zhang Luye waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about my business later. Tell me, what do you mean, you want Jiang Xue to join the Third Army?"

Zhang Pengcheng also got angry when he heard his grandfather questioning his father. He cried out, "Yeah, Dad, didn't you say Jiang Xue would definitely join the Third Army? Why did she go to the 19th Army again?"

Zhang Yansheng sucked his teeth, feeling as if he was out of tune with this pair of grandparents and grandchildren.

He took a few breaths and said in a coaxing tone, "The plan against Gu Jinzhi has failed, right?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Luye gets angry.

He had his son planning for so long, but in the end, it was all in vain?

It would be fine if Gu Jinzhi didn't come to Western Xinjiang, the key is that the Zhang family cannot retaliate against the person who came for him.

Not to mention revenge, if this young lady gets even a little scratched on the battlefield, Gu Jinzhi won't have to do anything to bring down the Zhang family. Just the group of big guys who put pressure on Li Huaiyuan would be in big trouble if they all move their fingers.

Thinking about these troubles, Zhang Luye squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Yes!"

Zhang Yansheng continued, "Did our previous actions offend the Gu family?"

Zhang Luye took a deep breath: "Yes!"

Zhang Yansheng sipped his tea leisurely: "If I offend the Gu family, does that mean I've offended Jiang Xue?"

Zhang Luye breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes!"

Zhang Yansheng put down his teacup and leaned back in his chair. "If Jiang Xue successfully grows up and becomes a Martial Immortal... could you, old man, defeat her?"

After asking, he added, "According to my intelligence, Jiang Xue, it's most likely a 'shortcut'~"

Zhang Luye's face twitched: "You might as well make your words clearer!"

Zhang Pengcheng also chimed in: "Yes, Dad, don't play dumb, just speak frankly!"

Zhang Yansheng choked.

No, aren't my words straightforward enough?

We are all decent people. Can we communicate happily in a decent way?

Facing the clear gazes of the grandfather and grandson, Zhang Yansheng compromised and said, "When I left the imperial capital, I arranged for a branch of the Zhang family working in the liaison office to keep a close eye on the Gu family's situation."

"If you discover that Jiang Xue is serving in place of Gu Jinzhi, report it to me immediately."

"I also contacted all the airports in Western Xinjiang and told them to assign Jiang Xue to our Third Army."

"This way, I can protect her and find an opportunity to ease our relationship and improve the impression of the Zhang family in her mind."

"So that she won't become a martial immortal in the future..."

He gave Zhang Luye a meaningful look and continued, "Let's start with you, number nineteen..."

Zhang Luye and Zhang Pengcheng both showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Zhang Pengcheng exclaimed before his grandfather: "Oh~ No wonder you said a few days ago that when I see her, I must be polite, respectful, smile, and speak nicely..."

"Dad, you are still smart!"

Zhang Luye nodded, his expression a teachable boy. "Not bad, not bad, safe, very safe."
