"I will listen to your explanation later."
Ye Kunlun glanced at Lu Dengye calmly and asked Han Qingmian, "Senior Sister, since we are sending him to the north, how should we deal with him now?"
Han Qingmian took out a gold token. Upon seeing it, the soldiers present all saluted her.
"Greetings, Lord Han!"
Although Han Qingmian could directly command the Jicheng military, without the order token, it was difficult to gain their full obedience!
"Detain Chu Tianxiong for now. I will deal with him tomorrow!"
Han Qingmian instructed the two young generals behind Chu Tianxiong.
"Yes!"
Although they were soldiers brought out by Chu Tianxiong, they dared not resist Han Qingmian's orders.
Otherwise, their fate would be the same as Chu Tianxiong's!
Chu Tianxiong was unwillingly led away.
Just then, a creaking sound was heard again, and a sliver of heart-stopping firelight appeared from the cannon's muzzle in the darkness.
"Not good, it must be Deputy General Bai!"
Someone exclaimed.
A murderous glint flashed in Han Qingmian's eyes.
Lu Dengye quickly shouted, "When I arrived just now, Bai Qingming was in the control room!"
But it was too late. The devastating cannon had been activated, and its violent roar made the earth tremble.
"Everyone, retreat beyond a hundred meters at the fastest speed!"
Han Qingmian gave the order.
Ye Kunlun, however, turned around, his cold gaze fixed on the dark muzzle, and took a step forward.
"Little brat, what are you doing? This is no ordinary cannon; your body can't stop it!"
Han Qingmian seemed to guess Ye Kunlun's intention.
Ye Kunlun looked back at Han Qingmian and gave her a gentle smile, "Senior Sister, in the ten years I've spent on Kunlun, I've learned the mastery of all one hundred and eight old men!"
Han Qingmian's beautiful eyes widened.
Anyone who came out of Kunlun Xu knew how formidable those one hundred and eight old men were.
Ye Kunlun claimed to have learned all their skills?
Before Han Qingmian could recover from her astonishment,
Ye Kunlun's body flickered slightly, and he vanished from everyone's sight.
He reappeared standing before the colossal cannon's muzzle.
The dark muzzle seemed poised to devour Ye Kunlun.
And Bai Qingming, in the control room, shivered when he saw this.
"Ye Kunlun, all of you, die!"
Beep beep—
A rapid beeping sound ensued, and the cannon roared, making the ground tremble.
Everyone's heartbeat seemed to stop at this moment!
The next second, they saw a streak of green light shoot into the sky.
"Junior Brother!"
Han Qingmian cried out, her beautiful eyes filled with admiration.
Ye Kunlun had actually intercepted the cannon with his true qi and sent it flying away!!
Only after Ye Kunlun's figure disappeared into the darkness.
Boom—
A terrifying explosion resounded above the Jicheng military. The intensely blinding firelight tore a rift in the night, illuminating the vast Jicheng!
At this moment, everyone in Jicheng looked up towards the fiery light in the sky and took out their phones to check what had happened!
"Junior Brother!"
Han Qingmian clenched her fists, looking anxiously in the direction of the explosion. Ye Kunlun had not returned yet!!
Everyone, like Han Qingmian, quietly waited for Ye Kunlun's return.
They knew very well that without Ye Kunlun, even if they had retreated dozens of meters, they would surely have been seriously injured!
As soldiers, they knew better than anyone the power of that cannon; it could flatten a mountain!
Just as everyone held their breath, Ye Kunlun descended from the sky.
He landed with a thud five meters in front of Han Qingmian.
"Little brat!" Han Qingmian's suspended heart finally settled as she saw Ye Kunlun was safe.
"Little brat, you've really grown up." Han Qingmian walked closer to Ye Kunlun, her eyes slightly reddened, "You are no longer the little brat who needed Senior Sister's protection."
Ye Kunlun grinned, "From now on, it will be Junior Brother protecting Senior Sister."
Han Qingmian poked Ye Kunlun's forehead, her nose feeling a little sore, "You little rascal, do you know how dangerous that was just now? That cannon's power could flatten a mountain!!"
Ye Kunlun smiled, "I have to protect Senior Sister."
"You're just all talk. You can't be so reckless in the future!"
"Salute!"
Suddenly, someone shouted.
All the soldiers of the Jicheng military turned to Ye Kunlun in unison and saluted him.
Han Qingmian, at the sound of the command, also raised her hand and saluted Ye Kunlun!
At this moment, respect for Ye Kunlun shone in everyone's eyes!
They knew that Ye Kunlun had saved not just them, but the Jicheng military.
Lu Dengye's heart pounded violently.
Ye Kunlun's fearless charge was magnified in his mind, becoming a totem in his heart, branded forever.
At this moment, he felt a surge of respect for Ye Kunlun, his superior officer.
Ye Kunlun smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the soldiers with their utterly sincere gazes.
"Alright, everyone, disperse."
Ye Kunlun spoke.
"Disperse!" Han Qingmian waved her hand.
In the control room, Bai Qingming's figure was nowhere to be seen.
A killing intent flashed in Ye Kunlun's eyes.
"My lord, Bai Qingming cannot escape Tian Ting's sight. Leave him to me."
Lu Dengye knew this was his chance to redeem himself.
Ye Kunlun grunted, "Tell me, what was your purpose in seeking out Chu Tianxiong?"
Lu Dengye dared not hide anything and quickly explained, "My lord, the Jicheng military is under the jurisdiction of the East Sea military."
Lu Dengye glanced at Han Qingmian.
Han Qingmian said coldly, "Don't mind me. Speak whatever you need to say!"
Lu Dengye breathed a sigh of relief, as Han Qingmian's status in the East Sea military was somewhat special!
He continued, "Lord Han, half a month ago, Tian Ting found some clues regarding the leaked military secret from the East Sea military, and they are related to the Jicheng military."
Han Qingmian frowned slightly and remained silent.
Lu Dengye went on, "We suspect that there are members of the Three Gods Society within the Jicheng military, and they are of no small rank."
"In the past two days, based on my understanding, Chu Tianxiong and Bai Qingming are the only deputy generals in the Jicheng military. As for the other deputy generals..."
He glanced at Ye Kunlun and smiled awkwardly, "Beyond that, the possibility of them knowing that military secret is not high."
Ye Kunlun interjected, "So, the members of the Three Gods Society are very likely Chu Tianxiong, or Bai Qingming?"
Lu Dengye nodded, "That is what I also suspect, but there is no concrete evidence yet."
"Junior Brother, do you know why Senior Sister is in Jicheng?"
Han Qingmian looked at Ye Kunlun.
"Could it be that Senior Sister is also here because of this matter?" Ye Kunlun asked.
Han Qingmian nodded, a cold glint in her beautiful eyes. Her aura as a war god made Lu Dengye tremble.
"That's right! Due to the leak of the East Sea military's confidential information, our forces were almost annihilated!"
"Therefore, no matter what, Chu Tianxiong deserves to die!"
Han Qingmian's killing intent did not diminish, "Sending him to the north is to make him wish he were dead."
"However, fortunately, the Eastern Ocean Divine Mountain was attacked just then, which allowed our people to escape."
Han Qingmian still felt lingering fear as she recalled it.
"The Eastern Ocean Divine Mountain was attacked?"
Ye Kunlun was taken aback. Could it be the time he himself raided the Eastern Ocean Divine Mountain?
