Chapter 964 - I Finally Found You (1/2)

”Erm, you're…” Zhang Xiaoman looked at Yan Liuyuan's ferocious faceplate, not knowing how to address him. ”Hero, is Ren Xiaosu the big brother you were referring to?”

Yan Liuyuan looked at Zhang Xiaoman. ”Yes, my name is Yan Liuyuan.”

Zhang Xiaoman said excitedly to P5092, ”It's really Liuyuan. When the future commander was with me in the Razor Sharp Company, he mentioned several times he was going to look for his younger brother after taking out the Zong Consortium, and this search went on for over a year.”

At this point, the Great Hoodwinker looked over at Yan Liuyuan. ”Hello, I'm the Great Hoodwinker. I'm in charge of Fortress 178's fieldwork. Your brother previously requested I help look for you, but I couldn't find any news of you. I didn't expect you would actually go to the north. Do you know how much effort your brother has spent looking for you? He even made a trip to the Pyro Company's Sacred Mountains just to find you, but nothing came out of that.”

Wang Yun was stunned. ”So Ren Xiaosu went to the Sacred Mountains because he wanted to find him? It was way too dangerous at that time.”

Yan Liuyuan listened to all of this quietly. So it turned out his brother had been looking for him all this while and even put himself in danger for him.

He asked again, ”Where's my brother? My servant's hawk saw him at your defensive position.”

”Oh, when he saw that the situation on the main battlefield had already been decided, he led his wife and a chubster with him to the northern side. He was talking about killing Black Robe first. You probably don't know who Black Robe is, right? It's an intelligent being that exists among the Experimentals,” Zhang Xiaoman explained. ”But he should be back soon. I feel that it won't take long for him to kill Black Robe.”

But the moment he finished saying that, everyone saw Yan Liuyuan commanding the Wolf King to turn back, muttering, ”Head north…”

The Wolf King started picking up speed as it ran.

The man and the wolf weaved through the battlefield, the barbarians posing no obstacle.

The Great Hoodwinker watched Yan Liuyuan's figure recede. ”I can tell that the brothers have great affection for each other. I wonder if I can persuade him to have those nomads join the Prosperous Northwest. Y'know, our Northwest has very good pastures….”

Wang Yun suddenly said, ”When Stronghold 176 was invaded the first time, someone saw him bring down the stronghold from far away. They didn't even know how he did it. These two brothers are really powerful. To be honest, we've really fought a very tough battle. Great Hoodwinker, if you had helped the future commander find him earlier, we wouldn't have had such a hard time fighting the barbarians. This young lord is probably capable of fighting an army of 20,000 by himself.”

The era of the ”Rise of Gods” had truly arrived. When this era first began, there were only two people powerful enough to take on the organizations on their own. But now, there were more and more of them.

However, Wang Yun suddenly had a thought. 'Why does it seem like all of these people have an inextricable link with Ren Xiaosu?'

And now, if the consortiums of the Alliance of Strongholds were to learn Ren Xiaosu's background, they would probably be glad he had no ambitions of vying for power, right?

When Yan Liuyuan got to the rear of the enemy, Xiaoyu was waiting outside the battlefield on her horse with Bulan Zir standing guard by her side. Xiaoyu asked, ”Have you found your brother?”

”He went to the northern side.” Yan Liuyuan grabbed Xiaoyu by the waist and carried her over from the horse. He placed her on the Wolf King's back and said, ”Let's go and look for him.”

…

In the wilderness, Black Robe hid its tracks as it fled northwards. While lying prone on the ground, it saw the wolves from afar and realized the expeditionary army's defeat was already decided.

Right now, it was not only the expeditionary army at Mt. Zuoyun that was starting to collapse. The barbarians over at Mt. Daniu would definitely pull a quick retreat as well after learning about the defeat at Mt. Zuoyun, right?

However, Black Robe was not dejected. Just as it had said to Valentin, it never expected the expeditionary army to be able to achieve the final victory.

It had urged the expeditionary army to come to the Central Plains because it coveted their northern kingdom. But at that time, the barbarians were simply too strong, especially that general Black Robe did not even dare to make a move against.

And now, only a few out of the 190,000-strong expeditionary army troops could return home after this campaign ended. This way, there would be more opportunities for Black Robe to strike later on. It did not even seem difficult anymore if Black Robe wanted to turn the entire northern kingdom into its own territory.

Moreover, Black Robe was thinking how great it would be if the Central Plains people could surround and kill the general here. In that way, it would no longer have any opponents up in the Far North.

But while thinking about that, Black Robe gradually stopped in its tracks. When it saw the young man looking at it in the wilderness up ahead with a smile, its suddenly got worried.

Just over a month ago, it was this young man who had caused its entire body to turn completely black. Whenever Black Robe thought of this, it felt a deep hatred for Ren Xiaosu.

Moreover, the other party had even displayed his killing resolve on the opposite peak yesterday.
