Ever since Shangguan Ning recalled his old subordinates, Ye Chuxue has visited Xiang Sheng no more than five times in the past two months.
The nine people always thought that she was drawing a line between them and clearly standing on Shangguan Ning's side.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the outer area, Ye Chuxue acted completely differently from usual.
"Could it be that everything she did in the military camp was just an act?!"
"Impossible! Ye Chuxue is a straightforward person, she's not good at beating around the bush like this. I think Yue Sheng forced her to come over."
"It's also possible that Lord Shangguan gave instructions in advance."
"Impossible! If there really was an advance instruction, why didn't Lord Shangguan tell us?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Are we going or not?"
"go!"
"Hmph, I'd rather not watch."
The nine people had different opinions and eventually parted ways unhappily.
Xiang Sheng sat in the main tent of the immortal boat, waiting for the three people to arrive one after another.
Seeing the three of them, Xiang Sheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, narrowed his eyes and smiled kindly: "This commander thought none of you would come, please sit down."
The three people who came over felt a little regretful when they saw Xiang Sheng's soft attitude.
But since they were already there, they could only sit down as they were told. Only then did they notice a stick of burning incense on the table.
Ye Chuxue, who was standing beside Xiang Sheng, spoke at the right time: "After all, this is our first meeting. The commander-in-chief is tolerant and has set aside an incense stick of time for you to hesitate.
The incense is still halfway burned, please wait a little longer. We can discuss important matters later."
The three of them looked at each other when they heard this, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
What surprised them was not what Ye Chuxue said, but Ye Chuxue's position.
That position was usually reserved for attendants. Ye Chuxue actually lowered herself so low in front of the Commander? What on earth was she…
The three of them were confused and no one spoke for a while.
Half an incense stick of time passed in a flash, and no one came into the main tent.
Xiang Sheng tapped his knuckles lightly on the table twice, then suddenly raised his sleeve to extinguish the last spark of the incense stick. His smile deepened. "The remaining six captains are really arrogant. It seems that this commander will have to go and invite them personally."
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of sword appeared under Xiang Sheng's feet, and he disappeared directly into the tent.
Are we going to take action?!
The three people at the table were startled and immediately stood up to chase after him, but Ye Chuxue dodged and stopped them, scolding them coldly:
"The commander summoned you, and it's bad enough you lacked courtesy, but you even wanted to go out and watch the fun. How disrespectful! Do you really think military rules are just for show?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, one of the captains, named "Liu Shuang," immediately showed his indignation, "Ye Chuxue, what exactly do you mean? You weren't like this when we were in the camp."
"Not like this? Then what is it?"
Ye Chuxue walked to the left of the main seat and sat down, asking in a cold voice.
Liu Shuang was speechless and immediately became very angry.
They weren't reckless recruits, so they naturally knew to be cautious with their words and actions. Words like "drawing a clear line" could only be discussed in private, never in public.
Ye Chuxue clearly knew what she was asking, but pretended not to understand. It was so infuriating!
However, even though she was angry, she and the other two still sat down and did not chase after them.
Not long after, a sound of breaking air was heard outside the tent.
Liu Shuang turned around and saw that the other six captains were thrown in from outside like dumplings. They all had bruises and swollen faces and were unable to move.
Xiang Sheng was the last one to walk in, unharmed, and smiled faintly: "Everyone is here, let's get down to business."
Seeing the kind smile still on her face, Liu Shuang and the other two couldn't help but shudder, and then they all lowered their heads in awe, not daring to look directly at Xiang Sheng's face.
Xiang Sheng took in the reactions of the three people, his smile deepened, and he returned to the main seat and sat down, then spoke slowly:
"The first thing is, it's your fault for being late to the council today. You are all veterans of the military, and you should know that the battlefield situation is ever-changing. You must obey orders and discipline in order to unite as a team and do your best to win the battle!
But the six of you refused to come even when summoned by me. What's going on? Do you want to take your subordinates and act on your own, violating military regulations?"
Xiang Sheng smiled as he glanced at the six people lying or kneeling under the table. "Want to die? This commander can directly grant your wish. You don't have to bring your subordinates down with you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the six people on the ground immediately struggled hard, but unfortunately, both their cultivation and throats were sealed by Xiang Sheng.
Liu Shuang saw that their faces were flushed red and they couldn't utter a word. There was no regret in his heart, only deep relief.
I'm glad that I was careful and made the right move.
Before Shangguan Ning called them back to serve as captains of a thousand men, Yue Sheng didn't even dare to fart.
Everyone under her command said that Yueying’s current prosperity was all thanks to Yue Sheng, but she naturally didn’t believe it.
The reason I came here today was just because I instinctively wanted to abide by military regulations.
Now it was obvious that she had been mistaken.
Given the way the commander-in-chief captured the six golden immortals, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for him to deal with them?
Even so, Lord Shangguan still wants to rely on them to suppress Lord Commander? This is a joke!
Doesn't Lord Shangguan know the true strength of Lord Commander?
Various thoughts flashed through Liu Shuang's mind, and finally turned into a sigh. He stood up and said:
"Your Excellency is absolutely right. I have not been back to the camp for a long time and have become lazy. Today, I have finally come to my senses after receiving your teachings. When I enter the battlefield in the future, I will respect you, my Excellency."
The other two people sitting there also immediately followed Liu Shuang's expression, using almost the same words.
These three people are obviously led by Liu Shuang, and are ready to gather together for warmth.
