The soldiers of the Third Heavenly Dragon Legion knelt neatly before Feng Fei's carriage, their faces filled with sorrow and eyes filled with hatred.
With a soft "sizzle,"
the carriage curtain was pulled open by a pair of jade-like hands, and a tall woman stepped out. Her face was cold and delicate, but she was very beautiful.
"This Feng Fei looks ... Not as beautiful as I imagined! Long Chen said softly.
"She's just Lady Fengfei's maid." Shen Chengfeng hurriedly whispered.
"Damn, if the maid is so proud, won't the master be so arrogant?" Long Chen curled his lips. This maid looked down from above, looking down on everyone. Long Chen had thought she was Feng Fei.
The maid reached out and pulled open the carriage curtain, and a woman in a red long dress stepped out. As soon as she appeared, an invisible aura swept across the entire world.
The woman had cherry lips and phoenix eyes, a peach-like face and jade-like cheeks, her long hair tied up high, and on top of it was a golden phoenix hairpin, exuding an air of nobility.
She is proud and cold, yet possesses a beauty that captivates all beings. However, her beauty is not meant to be admired; it makes people afraid to look directly at her, and looking at her feels like a grave sin.
Feng Fei was very beautiful and wore many accessories—the ring on her slender fingers, the bracelet on her wrist, the necklace around her neck, even the hair tie that bound her hair were all divine artifacts.
Wow, Long Chen saw Feng Fei's outfit and couldn't help but gasp. He used to think he was quite wealthy, but now he understood what it really meant to be rich.
Long Chen's eyes were extremely sharp. He could tell that the golden thread on Feng Fei's hair tie was the divine material Guo Ran had dreamed of—the Dao Guiding Spirit Gold.
Guo Ran hated cultivation and always tried to find shortcuts. Besides the battle armor, he wanted to make a set of cultivation armor.
It was the kind of divine armor that could quickly improve cultivation while eating or sleeping. But it lacked many things, one of which was the Dao Guiding Spirit Gold, which had never been available on the Tianwu Continent. Yet Feng Fei used it to tie her hair—this was the difference.
Feng Fei stepped out of the carriage, with four maids standing behind her. Instead of looking at Ye Lingfeng and the others, Feng Fei looked at Long Chen inside the formation.
"Greetings, Lady Feng Fei."
Shen Chengfeng and the others hurriedly knelt on one knee to pay their respects when Lady Feng Fei came out, but Long Chen stood there abruptly, looking at Feng Fei and the others with indifference.
"How dare you..."
The maid saw Long Chen staring directly at Feng Fei with helplessness, and her expression darkened.
Feng Fei waved her hand to stop the maid, looking at Long Chen and saying, "I heard that on the Tianwu Continent, you are quite a figure. I didn't expect you to be so insignificant." Long
Chen shook his head: "I'm neither braised pork nor boiled fish, so why should I be on the table?" Clearly,
Feng Fei had already figured out something, or perhaps what message Ye Lingfeng had sent when he sent a distress signal earlier.
"Slick-tongued, making people look down on you even more." Feng Fei snorted coldly.
"Heh, I, Long Chen, have never needed others to look down on me in this life. I'm alive not to be seen by others." Long Chen chuckled and said indifferently.
"Lady Fengfei, I know you're busy? Between us, you're in the sky and I'm on the ground—there's nothing to talk about, and our communication style is also problematic.
So, just go do what you need to do. Everything here is settled. We still have many things to do. Our temple here is small and can't accommodate a great deity like you, so we won't invite you in to sit.
Additionally, we have just retaken our position and still have many matters to do. If we have not received you well, please forgive us. After
Long Chen finished speaking, he shouted loudly to the people beside him, "Why are you still foolishly kneeling?" Hurry up and get to work?
A bunch of useless fools, all they know is slacking off. What if another demon beast comes attacking?
Clean up the battlefield while you clean it; repair the positions where needed; do what needs to be done, and make the most of your time. "
You..."
A layer of frost appeared on Feng Fei's pretty face. In the entire Divine Clan, few dared speak to her like that. Long Chen had actually issued an expulsion order—she was supposed to stay wherever she was cool.
"No take, no take, all these spoils are ours." Ye Lingfeng saw the soldiers of the Third Heavenly Dragon Legion begin cleaning up the battlefield, shouting angrily to stop them.
"Wow, that's amazing. You pooped yourself, and you can still eat it while it's hot?"
Long Chen looked at Ye Lingfeng in shock and said, "Ye Lingfeng, just now you promised in front of everyone that as long as we made a move, all the spoils would be ours." This
guy can be so untrustworthy—he agreed right away, then immediately went back on his word.
"Then... That was just a temporary expedient. Ye Lingfeng gritted his teeth and forced himself to say.
Although regretting it was embarrassing, compared to the huge loss, he no longer cared. Without the spoils, this time they would suffer for a long time.
Because for fallen soldiers, part of the compensation was paid by the Protoss, and part by the legion.
If the legion can't afford it, the gods will pay first, and after the legion earns points, they'll cover the gap.
The Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion was timid and ridiculed, and dared not make any rash moves, because if too many soldiers died, the legion would be worn down.
This time, thousands of members of the Third Heavenly Dragon Legion died. Not to mention other losses, just the compensation alone would nearly bankrupt their entire family. Without these beasts to compensate, they might have to sell their chariots and Divine Dragon Overlord Crossbows to the gods in exchange for points to pay compensation.
Without these super machines, they would be no different from the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion. From now on, they would have to rely on brute force to survive, and who knows how many years it would take to recover.
Thinking of such a huge loss, Ye Lingfeng shamelessly started throwing a tantrum. Nothing mattered now; points were what mattered most. He wanted to use Lady Feng Fei to pressure Long Chen and Shen Chengfeng, forcing him to hand over the spoils.
"A stopgap measure?" Hehehe, so Commander Ye has been using schemes all along.
We want to retake our position. You deliberately lured so many demon beasts to harm us. After we saw through it, we fled, and you trapped yourself in a cocoon, bringing about your own destruction.
You asked us for help, and we risked our lives to help. Now you're talking to me about stopgap measures?
Hehehehe, this is really funny. Is this the tradition of the gods? You want to take Lady Fengfei's hand and help you settle things? Alright, I'll see how Lady Fengfei starts this conversation. Long Chen sneered.
Feng Fei's face darkened instantly. She had previously received information that Long Chen had deliberately framed them, trapping them with magical beasts. But now, Long Chen's words made her realize this matter was not simple.
The reason Feng Fei was so furious was that Ye Lingfeng actually dared to send messages recklessly. If she came over and immediately attacked Long Chen, it would be like being used by Ye Lingfeng.
"Lady Fengfei, please don't listen to his nonsense. We ... We were suddenly attacked by a magical beast and caught off guard—it was all just a coincidence. "Ye Lingfeng saw Feng Fei's dark expression and murderous intent flashing in her eyes. He trembled in fear and shouted urgently.
Feng Fei said coldly, "You are safe now, and my duty has been fulfilled."
As for the right and wrong behind it, you'd better let the Celestial Authorities handle it. I don't have time for such pointless trouble.
One last warning: if you ever falsely report military information again, don't blame me, Feng Fei, for being ruthless. With
that, Feng Fei turned and entered the carriage. The carriage roared away and disappeared into the horizon.
Feng Fei actually left just like that. Ye Lingfeng was stunned. Feng Fei hadn't made decisions for him; her last sentence was clearly directed at him.
"Clap clap clap"
A round of applause echoed through the void. Long Chen clapped his hands and said, "Commander Ye's signature technique of eating—it truly opened my eyes and made me admire it deeply."
But even so, it doesn't mean anything. It only makes you more embarrassed. Get lost—this is a classic case of setting someone up and ruining yourself.
I'm waiting for you to report us to the Celestial Division. No matter what tricks you use, I, Long Chen, will take it. "
Long Chen, just you wait. The Ye family won't let you off."
Ye Lingfeng roared through gritted teeth and led everyone away. The three war chariots arrived with imposing awe.
But now, the three chariots had become somewhat dilapidated, teetering in the air, dragging the Divine Dragon Overlord Crossbow as they slowly left, raising concerns that they might fall from the sky.
"Victory! Victory!"
When Ye Lingfeng and the others left, the soldiers of the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion erupted in cheers. They had never imagined in their lives that such a day would come.
They had never seen tactics play like this—not only retaking the position without bloodshed, but also collecting countless corpses of demon beasts.
The soldiers of the Eighth Dragon Legion began to thoroughly clean up the battlefield. The more they cleaned, the more excited they became.
They finally understood why Ye Lingfeng had changed his mind—because there were too many beast corpses on the battlefield.
The corpses stretched for hundreds of thousands of miles. When Ye Lingfeng summoned the surrounding demon beasts, he frantically activated the Divine Dragon Overlord Crossbow along the way. It could be said that the entire journey was filled with beast corpses.
"Reporting to Commander, we noticed that the corpse of a demon beast in the distance is missing. It must have been secretly taken away by Ye Lingfeng and his team." There are warriors who report back.
"Fine, let's take it. After all, the bulk is on our side. As for the things on the road, we'll just treat them as just beggars. Our Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion is already well-funded, so don't be so stingy." Long Chen laughed heartily.
Now, the soldiers of the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion are cleaning up the battlefield, still following the spirit of 'every grain is stored.' When someone takes something, they feel upset.
The battlefield was cleaned for a whole day before it was finally cleaned. After counting the gains, Shen Chengfeng almost jumped up, because if this harvest could be converted into points, all the soldiers would arm themselves, and their overall strength would increase more than tenfold.
But just as they were counting their gains and getting excited, the Divine Clan's leadership called out, demanding that Long Chen and everyone from the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Legion return to the Divine Clan for investigation, and temporarily hand over the position to the Second Heavenly Dragon Legion for protection.
"I'm afraid trouble is about to come." Shen Chengfeng sighed. Today's matter was probably really blowing up.
"It's fine, just going to court? I'm quite good at this, don't worry. Long Chen patted Shen Chengfeng on the shoulder and smiled calmly. After handing over the position, he returned directly to the Divine Clan. Long Chen knew that this time, he should be able to learn about the internal situation of the Divine Clan.
