"Governor, Wei Hu has taken more than 30,000 men with him. If something goes wrong, we will suffer huge losses. Should we send someone to recall him?"
The subordinate asked cautiously.
"Why chase him?" Zhang Jianzong gritted his teeth and said, "He led tens of thousands of people to chase a mountain cultivator. What could possibly happen? We'll eliminate him when he returns. Let's not alert him."
"Alright..." The subordinate gave a wry smile, turned around and left.
"Wait a minute." As if he had thought of something, Zhang Jianzong's eyes gradually became a little lewd: "His sister is still here, right? Tsk, that pretty girl, I've been coveting her for a long time. Since we're going to kill Wei Hu anyway, go find someone and bring that girl to me."
"Huh?" The subordinate was taken aback. "Governor, isn't this a bit inappropriate? Killing Wei Hu isn't inherently wrong, but if you do this, the other brothers will have reservations, and it might cause some negative repercussions..."
"What impact?" Zhang Jiazhong roared, "I am the Tiger Army Governor-General, and the Border King is my brother-in-law. Who dares to challenge me? Go and arrest him. I will not only play with his sister, but also kill her after I'm done. I want to see how arrogant this Wei Hu is. If you don't go, I'll kill you."
"Go, I'll go right away."
His subordinates hurriedly turned and left.
...
In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
Wei Hu and his men finally returned.
As soon as he reached the vicinity of the training ground, a soldier approached him, his face pale, and whispered, "Brother Tiger, something's happened. The governor wants to kill you. He's already laid a trap inside, just waiting for you to go in."
"Okay, thank you for letting me know."
Wei Hu's expression was solemn, and his eyes were extremely firm.
"Brother Tiger, there's one more thing," Zhanbing whispered. "Your...your sister has already...has been...done by Zhang Jianzong, and her fate is unknown."
"What?" Wei Hu's expression changed.
He didn't choose to charge directly because he was still thinking about his sister.
"Brother Tiger, Zhang Jianzong is a beast. If you want to rebel, I'll go with you."
The soldier gritted his teeth and said.
"Kill! Charge in and capture Zhang Jianzong!"
Wei Hu was furious and gave the order.
"kill."
In an instant, tens of thousands of people roared and erupted, rushing into the training ground.
Inside the training ground, Zhang Jianzong stood at the entrance of the main hall, slowly fastening his belt, a smug look on his face.
Seeing Wei Hu lead his men in, he remained calm and sneered, "We'll fight too. Whoever can cut off Wei Hu's head, I'll let him take his place."
"kill."
A dozen or so soldiers charged toward Wei Hu's men.
But after these dozen or so people had charged halfway, they suddenly realized that only they were charging, while the other 30,000 or so people were all standing still.
Zhang Jianzong frowned and hurriedly roared, "What are you all standing there for? Kill! Charge over there and wipe out Wei Hu!"
"Kill your mother's head, you're the one who deserves to die."
“Zhang Jianzong, you beast, you even humiliated Brother Hu’s sister, you are the one who deserves to die.”
"Brothers, don't listen to that beast Zhang Jianzong. We can't lay a hand on Brother Tiger."
In an instant, angry voices rose and fell.
The dozen or so people who rushed forward also stopped, their expressions becoming panicked.
"kill."
Wei Hu took the lead, sweeping his sword and killing all the dozen or so people who rushed out first.
Seeing that things were not going well, Zhang Jianzong turned around and rushed into the main tent, carrying out a naked corpse.
The corpse was Wei Hu's sister.
When Wei Hu saw his sister's corpse, who had died so humiliatingly, his eyes turned red: "Zhang Jianzong, you deserve to die."
"You fucking back off, or I'll make sure your sister is torn to pieces."
Zhang Jianzong roared.
"Fuck you."
Wei Hu roared and charged at Zhang Jianzong with his sword.
Zhang Jianzong's expression changed; his first thought wasn't to dispose of the corpse, but to escape.
However, Zhang Jianzong was usually addicted to wine and women, and his cultivation was far inferior to Wei Hu's.
Wei Hu quickly approached and easily slashed Zhang Jianzong in the back with a single stroke.
Zhang Jianzong screamed in agony as blood gushed from his gaping wound.
Wei Hu, filled with murderous intent, continued to strike with his blade, severing all four of Zhang Jianzong's limbs.
Zhang Jianzong lay in a pool of blood, still alive and conscious.
He stared at Wei Hu, who was seething with rage, and said in a trembling voice, "Wei Hu, you...you don't kill me. I'll pretend nothing happened. You can take my place."
"I can't quell my anger without killing you."
With a single slash, Wei Hu severed Zhang Jianzong's head.
Then, Wei Hu took off his outer garment and covered his sister's body.
Not far away, tens of thousands of people stood with their heads down, and no one spoke.
After an unknown amount of time, Wei Hu slowly stood up, faced everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I have decided to follow Ye Qiu, the one who was betrayed by our Dragon Emperor. Those of you who are willing to follow me may come with me. Those who are not willing to follow me may leave freely."
"Brother Tiger, I will follow you."
"I will follow suit."
"Brother Tiger, we'll go wherever you go."
No one left the scene; everyone's eyes were resolute.
“Alright.” Wei Hu said in a deep voice, “Since none of the brothers want to leave on their own, then follow me, Wei Hu, and follow Ye Qiu together. Believe me, following Ye Qiu is much better than following Zhang Jianzong or the Border King. Even if we die in battle, we can die with our heads held high and without any resentment.”
...
Half an hour later, Wei Hu led tens of thousands of people, carrying a large amount of supplies, weapons, heavy weapons, and even large equipment such as bulldozers and excavators, and marched into Ye Qiu's location in a grand procession.
