Chapter 45 Jing Yuan's Terrifying Methods! General Xianzhou, a Master Strategist!
However, Ice Empress soon tilted her head and threw out a new question.
"Can Brother Jing Yuan guess who they will clash with? Or rather, who from Shrek Academy they will encounter?"
Snow Empress tugged at Ice Empress's sleeve and whispered:
"Bing'er, Jing Yuan isn't a god, how could he possibly guess who it is? Don't be ridiculous."
Being able to calculate the route is already incredibly clever; if one could even predict who they would encounter, that would be far too exaggerated.
However, Jing Yuan waved his hand, not caring at all.
He closed his eyes again, as if he were talking about something trivial.
"Want to know what will happen? Who will go?"
"Let's continue to analyze this further."
Jing Yuan's voice was calm and magnetic, clearly audible in the wind and snow.
"Supplies are of paramount importance and are key to maintaining morale. Shrek Academy will definitely send its most trusted core members to escort such an important mission."
"The so-called Shrek Seven Devils are the best candidates."
Ice Empress and Snow Empress immediately perked up their ears, like two elementary school students listening to a story.
Jing Yuan held up one finger.
"As the commander-in-chief of the three armies and the inheritor of the Sea God, Tang San must stay at Jialing Pass to fight against Bibi Dong and cannot leave."
He then extended a second finger.
"Ning Rongrong is a support-type Soul Master. Although she has a noble status, she has no combat ability. It is impossible to let her carry out such a dangerous mission alone."
"As for that rabbit spirit Xiao Wu..."
Jing Yuan paused for a moment, then chuckled softly:
"She is Tang San's darling. She hasn't fully recovered yet. Tang San, who is a fiercely protective husband, would never let her leave his sight alone."
"Let's look at Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing again."
"These two are the prince and princess of the Star Luo Empire. They are currently commanding the Star Luo army and are too busy with military affairs to deal with logistics."
As Jing Yuan lowered his fingers one by one, the process of elimination had reached its limit.
In the end, only two names remained.
Jing Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his tone certain.
"Therefore, only two people are left who can go to Heaven Dou City to carry out this mission."
"It's either that fat guy Ma Hongjun who has the Phoenix Martial Soul."
"Or it could be Oscar, the sausage vendor with a full beard."
"There is no one else but them!"
"Who is it? What will happen?"
Ice Empress blinked her big eyes and leaned forward, almost touching Jing Yuan's face.
She was just so curious.
This man is like a book that can never be finished; every page holds a new surprise.
Snow Empress frowned and gently tapped Ice Empress on the head.
"Bing'er, you're asking too much."
"Although Jing Yuan is unparalleled in wisdom and strategy, he is, after all, far in the far north. How could he possibly know the specific names of the people involved and the details of the impending conflict?"
Ice Empress covered her head, stuck out her tongue somewhat aggrievedly, and shrank back.
"I was just asking casually."
Jing Yuan couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at the two lively sisters.
He picked up the hot tea beside him and gently blew away the foam.
"Actually, it's not hard to guess."
"Since the process of elimination can only leave two people, let's try a different approach and speculate based on their motives."
Jing Yuan slowly sipped his tea, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
"That fat guy, Ma Hongjun, has the Evil Fire Phoenix as his martial soul."
"Although this martial spirit is strong, it has a fatal flaw: its evil fire is too strong. It needs to be released frequently, otherwise it will burn itself and lose its mind."
At this point, Jing Yuan put down his teacup and tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest.
"Jialing Pass is a front-line battlefield with strict military discipline. Where would he find a place to vent his anger? He's been holding it in for so long, he probably couldn't hold back any longer."
"Heaven Dou City is prosperous and extravagant, with countless brothels and theaters, making it the perfect place for him to deal with the evil fire."
"So, for him, this was not only a task of transporting grain, but also an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and satisfy his physical needs."
Ice Empress listened in stunned silence, clearly not expecting to be analyzed from this angle.
Jing Yuan then changed the subject and mentioned another person.
"As for that Oscar."
"Although he is indeed capable of completing escort missions on his own because of his 'image sausage,' he has one major characteristic."
Jing Yuan's lips curled into a playful smile.
"He's Ning Rongrong's lapdog."
"In his heart, nothing is more important than being by Ning Rongrong's side. He feels restless if he can't see the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for even a moment."
"Moreover, Oscar is a man who values brotherhood very much."
"Ma Hongjun urgently needs to go to Heaven Dou City to 'put out a fire.' As his brother, Oscar will only joke around and will never compete with Fatty for this spot."
His words were logically sound and meticulously crafted.
Ice Empress opened her mouth wide, her emerald green eyes filled with admiration.
Wow! Jing Yuan is so amazing!
"They can even use such private matters as the basis for inferences."
Snow Empress, standing to the side, also stared wide-eyed, her heart filled with shock.
This is not just intelligence, but also a keen insight into human nature.
This man is not only incredibly powerful, but his grasp of human nature is also terrifying.
Ice Empress clapped her hands excitedly and continued to ask:
"Therefore, it must be Ma Hongjun who went to Heaven Dou City to transport grain!"
"Then Fu Xuan and the others will go to Heaven Dou City, and the two of them will run into each other. What kind of conflict will occur then?"
Jing Yuan lay back in the rocking chair, put his hands behind his head, and spoke in a calm tone as if he were talking about something that had already happened.
"That's even simpler."
"Ma Hongjun went there because he was consumed by lust and his mind was full of women."
"Both Fu Xuan and Huo Wu are stunning beauties. Especially Fu Xuan, whose aura of high position has a fatal attraction for someone like Ma Hongjun."
"If they meet on the long street, Ma Hongjun will definitely be tempted by her and start harassing her."
Jing Yuan tilted his head slightly and glanced at the sky.
"Fu Xuan and Huo Wu, though they look weak, are people with a strong sense of justice at heart."
"They are intolerant of any wrongdoing and would never allow a scoundrel like Ma Hongjun to harass respectable women in broad daylight."
"One was blinded by lust, the other hated evil as if it were her enemy."
"It's hard to prevent this conflict from happening."
Ice Empress was completely convinced.
She stared blankly at Jing Yuan, murmuring:
"So all of this... was predetermined?"
He even reenacted events that hadn't happened yet, making them seem as if he had witnessed them firsthand.
Snow Empress took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
She looked at the languid man on the recliner, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
Powerful and unparalleled in wisdom.
How could there be such a perfect man in this world?
...
Just as the trio from the far north were chatting, the golden sky began to churn once more.
A vast expanse of golden light obscured the wind and snow, and lines of ancient characters slowly emerged, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression.
