Zhuge Lang floated in the air.
His shadow blocked the sun.
That cold, clear voice delivered Ye Ran's death sentence.
As soon as the words were spoken...
The sky around Zhuge Lang began to change.
Countless afterimages filled the entire sky.
A chilling, murderous aura stirred the entire world.
The road surface was originally full of potholes,
It was instantly smoothed out by that chilling killing intent.
"boom!!!"
A phantom wielding a giant axe landed on the ground.
It smashed a deep crater into the already level ground once again.
The phantom vanished the instant it landed.
Ye Ran didn't have time to react at all.
The whistling wind rang directly in his ears.
A chilling killing intent, like a materialized blade, sliced through Ye Ran's earlobe.
The illusory figure had already arrived behind Ye Ran.
Holding a cold, divine axe, he cleaved through the sky.
It slashed towards the back of Ye Ran's neck!
"So fast..."
The two words had just flashed through Ye Ran's mind.
The giant axe was already in front of him.
Ye Ran's head could be severed in an instant.
"Bang!!!"
Just as the giant axe was about to sever Ye Hou's neck,
A dull thud sounded behind Ye Ran's ear.
The shockwave from the collision sent Ye Ran flying.
Realizing what was happening, Ye Ran abruptly turned her head to look behind her.
Standing in Ye Ran's original spot at this moment,
A man clad in blood-red armor gripped the giant axe that the phantom was swinging at him with one hand.
"General Ye... General Ye??"
Ye Ran was stunned for a moment as she sensed the man's aura.
Then, the mask dissipated, revealing Ye Shaoguo's face.
He turned to Ye Ran and gave her a reassuring smile: "It seems you arrived just in time."
Then, Ye Shaoguo's hand, which was gripping the giant axe, began to condense terrifying crimson power.
"boom!!!"
Driven by Ye Shaoguo's will,
The crimson power surged forth, completely engulfing the illusory figure of the giant, blood-red being.
In an instant,
The phantom disappeared.
Only one giant axe remained, crashing to the ground...
Zhuge Liang, watching this scene from the sky,
His face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
He stared at Ye Shaoguo, who was gripping the giant axe, and coldly rebuked him:
"Ye Shaoguo, do you know what you're doing?!"
Ye Shaoguo looked up at Zhuge Lang, his expression calm:
"Of course I know."
Seeing Ye Shaoguo's composed expression, Zhuge Lang continued his reprimand:
"If you know that, why don't you get out of here?! Let me deal with this prisoner?!"
"Where are the prisoners here?"
Ye Shaoguo suddenly asked Zhuge Lang a question in return.
Then he turned to look at the Zhuge family descendant lying on the ground and the wrecked luxury car.
He spoke calmly:
"Elder, are you talking about this person who drove recklessly through the crowd?"
"You!!" Zhuge Lang glared at Ye Shaoguo, clearly furious at Ye Shaoguo's words.
Then, in a slightly threatening tone, he said:
"I don't understand what you're saying, General Ye!!"
"Can't understand??"
Ye Shaoguo asked a question in return, and then said to Zhuge Lang, "Alright, alright, I'll repeat it to you again."
He pointed to the descendant of Zhuge Liang lying on the ground and said:
"The prisoner lost control and drove recklessly on a road where people should have been queuing on foot. He was eventually spotted by military personnel, who stopped him temporarily. When the prisoner attempted to injure the military personnel, his limbs were temporarily broken and he was brought under control."
After Ye Shaoguo finished speaking, he turned to look at Zhuge Lang in the sky:
"Elder, I'm not sure if you can hear me clearly."
Zhuge Lang looked at Ye Shaoguo, then at Ye Ran, and repeated with narrowed eyes:
"Major General??"
"Oh, I forgot to mention." Ye Shaoguo looked at Ye Ran.
"This is a major general in the military who was jointly proposed and selected by our military this year. The personnel report should still be on its way. I believe it will be on the table of your Long Lao Hui next month."
"What if I reject it?" Zhuge Lang squinted at Ye Shaoguo.
Ye Shaoguo then stated frankly, "Elder Zhuge, the Dragon Elder Council shouldn't be solely controlled by your Zhuge family..."
Hearing Ye Shaoguo say these words so frankly to him,
Zhuge Lang's face was so dark it was almost dripping with water. He looked at Ye Shaoguo and slowly said:
"It seems General Ye intends to break with our Zhuge family... I wonder if this is the military's decision, or just yours, Ye Shaoguo's, decision alone?"
Ye Shaoguo looked at Zhuge Lang without showing any weakness and chuckled:
"When have you ever seen the Chinese military give two conflicting statements to the outside world?"
"Ye Shaoguo!! Have you forgotten that the Dragon Kingdom's military was created by my Zhuge family?!" Zhuge Lang shouted sternly.
Ye Shaoguo looked at Zhuge Lang and said coldly:
"It is because of Senior Zhuge Shan that I have always chosen not to have any disputes with your Zhuge family."
Then, Ye Shaoguo's aura surged, and he looked at Zhuge Lang and shouted:
"Have you forgotten that Senior Zhuge Shan once said that the Dragon Kingdom's military is the army of the Dragon Kingdom, not any private armed force?!"
"Zhuge Lang, what did you mean by those words? Did you disobey ancestral teachings? Did you betray your master and ancestors? Or do you have no loyalty to the Dragon Kingdom?!"
