Chapter 279 The Founding Family, the Zhuge Family



Dragon Kingdom Military Headquarters, Combat Order

At that moment, two more guests arrived at Ye Shaoguo's office.

“Jia Xingxing, you can talk to me on the phone if you have something to say. There’s no need to come all the way here.”

Ye Shaoguo leaned back in his chair.

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, his face was indifferent.

At the reception table,

This time, Ye Shaoguo didn't even have his large tea mug set out, clearly indicating that he didn't like seeing the person in front of him.

This middle-aged man named Jia Xingxing,

Looking at the empty table in front of him, he frowned and said in a sarcastic tone:

"Not even a cup of tea? Is this how your military treats its guests?"

Ye Shaoguo looked at him and replied calmly, "If you want water, go buy some. My tea is useful."

"Ye Shaoguo, I am, after all, the honorary minister of the Ministry of Commerce of the Dragon Kingdom. Don't go too far!!" Hearing Ye Shaoguo's words, Jia Xingxing slammed his fist on the table in anger and stood up.

Ye Shaoguo looked at Jia Xingxing and said with narrowed eyes:

"That's going too far?? Are you talking to me??"

As Ye Shaoguo spoke, his aura began to rise.

A crimson aura of killing intent materialized and enveloped Jia Xingxing.

This terrifying killing intent forced Jia Xingxing to circulate his inner energy to resist.

However, during the resistance,

He was shocked to discover that Ye Shaoguo, who had previously been on par with him,

This time, they were actually able to subtly gain the upper hand.

Ye Shaoguo looked at Jia Xingxing and asked, "Minister Jia, should I call you Jia Xingxing or Tom Jia?"

"Enjoying the resources and privileges given to you by the Dragon Kingdom while living a carefree life in the Lighthouse Country, you really have a good time."

Listening to Ye Shaoguo's mockery,

Jia Xingxing frowned and deliberately adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses:

"Ye Shaoguo, I don't understand what you're talking about... Going to the United States is my job responsibility and my duty."

"Obligation??" Ye Shaoguo looked at Jia Xingxing and repeated the question incredulously.

Then he unleashed a torrent of abuse: "You bitch, you still love pretending to be virtuous?! Your only duty is to go to the US and live a life of debauchery, and to send resources and secrets there???"

Ye Shaoguo said this,

Jia Xingxing narrowed his eyes, his expression extremely dangerous, and said, "Would you dare to say something like this in the Supreme Court of the Dragon Kingdom without any evidence?"

Faced with Jia Xingxing's threats,

Ye Shaoguo retorted just as defiantly: "What's there to be afraid of? It's you who dares to do it but doesn't dare to admit it?"

"Enough!!"

While Ye Shaoguo was still berating Jia Xingxing,

The old man who had been sitting silently on the other side spoke up to stop the farce from escalating.

He stared at Ye Shaoguo and Jia Xingxing, and snorted coldly:

"That's enough!!"

Then, he looked at Ye Shaoguo and said, "I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said without evidence, but don't let me hear it again!"

"If this happens again, your tenure as a left general is over!!"

Ye Shaoguo glanced at the old man who was threatening him.

For the first time ever, he didn't refute anything.

He sat down and remained silent.

"Elder Zhuge, please calm down. We still need to go to Zhan Mountain to pay respects to our ancestors later. Why get angry with him..."

Jia Xingxing, seizing the opportunity,

While comforting the old man, he also disgusted Ye Shaoguo.

The old man glanced at Jia Xingxing and said:

"You also need to be careful. Your position is special, so don't let me see you do anything that would harm the Dragon Kingdom!!"

Jia Xingxing looked at the old man and answered respectfully:

"Rest assured, Elder Zhuge! I will faithfully fulfill the mission entrusted to me by the Dragon Elders Association and do my job well!"

"Alright, sit down."

After the old man finished speaking, he didn't press Jia Xingxing any further.

Ye Shaoguo remained silent despite witnessing this biased behavior.

The old man in front of me is named Zhuge Lang.

They are one of the founding families of the Dragon Kingdom.

The Zhuge family of Zhuge Shan, the lord of a thousand armies, buried in the Dragon Kingdom's Battle Mountain.

Zhuge Lang was the leader of the Zhuge family in this generation.

It is also one of the ten elders of the Dragon Elders' Council, the highest authority in the current Dragon Kingdom...

He is one of the most distinguished individuals in the Dragon Kingdom and even the world.

The reason why Ye Shaoguo was so tolerant of Zhuge Lang was...

This is because Zhuge Shan was the founder of the military headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom.

It can be said that,

Without Zhuge Shan, there would be no military headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom...

At this moment, Zhuge Lang, leaning on his scepter, looked at Ye Shaoguo:

"I heard you're getting quite close to Bai Xu???"

Ye Shaoguo nodded without saying a word.

Zhuge Lang looked at Ye Shaoguo and said in a gloomy tone, "This Bai Xu is a man of few words but amazing talent. I never thought that he, who has always been honest and unassuming, would have seven accomplices who are capable of slaughtering entire countries."

Upon hearing the word 'accomplice,' Ye Shaoguo frowned.

"He's been keeping a low profile; if it weren't for the Zhu family, he might have continued to hide. But what is Bai Xu planning? To destabilize the nation?"

Zhuge Lang said a few words, then turned to Ye Shaoguo and continued, "Are you also one of Bai Xu's accomplices?"

Ye Shaoguo shook his head: "I'm not."

Zhuge Lang nodded: "It's not the best. As the Left General of the Dragon Kingdom's military, you hold a high position and wield great power. In the future, you should not have too much contact with Bai Xu to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings."

Ye Shaoguo looked at Zhuge Lang and remained silent.

Seeing that Ye Shaoguo remained silent, Zhuge Lang seemed to realize that he had lost face.
