Chapter 156 - War preparations (2/2)
”General, please follow me. I've gathered everyone in your stead.” The soldier reports unwillingly and even though he was still standing, his back was slightly arched and his tone was more formal.
”See, the first step of the conquest has already been achieved. All I need to do right now is get all of them to slay down that heart demon and make the breakthroughs. After that, I just need to get them to build up their foundation and work together as one, making them eighteen thousand men as one with invincible strength.”
”Nick! What are you doing over there with that useless general who only made it to his current position through skipping ranks? He only made it up through relations because his master is the moonlight wolf General Silver who dominates the battlefield!”
”Cole, if you really trust me as a friend, then believe in my decisions this time. It may seem like I'm being foolish, but it's about that time we welcome the change. I don't want to spend the rest of my life wallowing in despair like some useless bitch abandoned by her man!”
”Soldiers, I'll issue the first order to all of you right now. I want all of you to forget about your previous general and only remember what he has done for you, I believe that his last wishes was for all of you to live on and continue with life. If so, then why aren't any of you doing it?” Ash interjects in at this time, signalling with his eye for Nick to fall back.
”System scan!”
[Cultivation realm: Martial Emperor sixth gate (Transcendent realm), evolved from the vibrant gates and after the heart demon was slayed, he smashed through five gates at once and even awakened his soul weapon. A whip.]
[Potential: Demigod realm is only the starting realm for him]
”Who do you think you are?”
”You don't even know what the old general did for us! You don't even know how we caused his death!”
”You should just scram right now or even if it means our death, we'll make sure to uphold the pride of the old general!”
”And what were his last words?” Ash shuts all of them down as silence enveloped the room in an instant, allowing the demon to open its mouth widely to swallow the chaos and noise.
The soldiers looked down in guilt, afraid to raise their head up. Ash smirks and says on their behalf ”He wanted all of you to live well. But what are all of you doing?”
Saying softly, his next sentence boomed like thunder ”Then open your fucking heart up and accept the death and live on with life just as he wished! Will it kill you to abide by his last wishes or are you already disobeying his orders if you truly blame yourselves! Then make your goddamn mind up and grow stronger so that you can avenge him with your own two hands!”
When Ash finished speaking, tears flooded the meeting hall as cultivation spirals exploded one after another as everyone started to make breakthroughs after breakthroughs...
