Good disciple?
The commander-in-chief of the Eastern Frontier Theater, who is known for his unconventional ways, actually takes on apprentices?
Gu Gu Xixue's expression was strange, and Li Qingyi beside her also looked incredulous.
In contrast, Gu Xingdong and Ouyang Xiaoyao both had increasingly grim expressions.
“I never said I wanted to be your apprentice,” Su Bai said expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the group changed slightly.
It is an immense honor for the Commander-in-Chief of the Eastern Border Theater to personally accept a disciple.
But Su Bai actually refused?
"Su Bai, you must agree quickly. Your situation is extremely serious. If you don't become the Commander-in-Chief's apprentice, he won't be able to protect you!"
Li Qingyi urgently transmitted her voice, but Su Bai only glanced at her and said nothing.
"It's okay, you can contact me again when you've thought it through."
To the surprise of the others, He Yaowu, who was usually short-tempered, still greeted Su Bai with a smile and showed no impatience even after Su Bai had humiliated him.
Upon seeing the commander-in-chief so kind and amiable, the group was all shocked.
"By the way, Su Bai, I just received a message from Guo Guang. He said that you left a 'Demon-Slaying Path' at Tianmen Pass, which greatly dampened the spirits of the demon race. You did a great job. I will personally give you the reward when my true form descends."
He Yaowu looked at Su Bai with admiration.
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, Su Bai previously tried to kill me. According to the regulations of the Eastern Border Theater, even though he is a meritorious official of the Eastern Border Theater, he should be punished accordingly. I request the Commander-in-Chief to handle this matter impartially."
At this time.
Ouyang Xiaoyao suddenly clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.
"Oh, is that so?"
He Yaowu turned to look at Gu Xingdong, who nodded.
"Commander-in-Chief, I am a witness to all of this. Let me tell you the whole story. If there is anything missing, please supplement it with the surveillance footage."
Li Qingyi stepped forward.
She quickly recounted what had happened.
There was no embellishment or deliberate bias towards any one side.
It was only mentioned that Su Bai and Ouyang Xiaoyao were of similar cultivation levels.
After listening, He Yaowu narrowed his eyes.
"So you're saying that Ouyang Xiaoyao, a mere Qiongyu Realm cultivator, went and provoked Su Bai, a Lin Shen Realm cultivator, and even claimed that Su Bai tried to kill him?"
"If I remember correctly, the Divine Realm can use intent, while the Universe Realm can use domains. The difference in strength between the two is like a chasm between heaven and earth. How could a mere Divine Realm expert pose a threat to a Universe Realm expert?"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, Su Bai's methods are endless. Not only can he use the Eight Realms of Intent, but he can also use the power of the Imprisoning Domain!"
"This person's strength cannot be judged by appearances alone!"
Ouyang Xiaoyao quickly added.
"Oh, really?"
He Yaowu looked at Li Qingyi, who hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"Commander-in-Chief, look, even Li Qingyi has spoken up to testify for me!"
Ouyang Xiaoyao said excitedly.
"Su Bai, show me your Eightfold Intent and Domain Power."
He Yaowu looked at Su Bai, his admiration growing stronger.
Seeing this, Ouyang Xiaoyao wanted to say something, but Gu Xingdong stopped him.
"If you don't want to die, don't go and provoke the Commander-in-Chief."
"Why?"
Do you think someone who can sit in this position is simple?
“Su Bai is clearly the successor favored by the Commander-in-Chief. If he doesn’t want to punish him, there are many ways. Right now, you still need to compete for the position of Ninth Army Commander. You must not displease the Commander-in-Chief at this juncture.”
