Chapter 995: No Staying out at Night!

“Who dares to be outrageous?!!”

More soldiers suddenly poured out from the fortress and completely suppressed Bai Xiaofei’s group with numbers.

“So you are a deputy commander now,” Ye Qingtong suddenly commented. Hearing Ye Qingtong’s light words this time, the one leading the new group coming out of the fortress suddenly froze.

“Grand Commander Qingtong?!” Her voice was full of disbelief, the deputy commander immediately jumped down from her horse and knelt.

This sudden event shocked all the soldiers.

“No need to do that. I’m just a small captain now. However, I should be enough proof for the validity of his claim, right?” said Ye Qingtong.

The deputy commander immediately bowed her head. “With Your Highness’ testification, naturally not a word he said is false,” replied the deputy commander before looking around at the soldiers coldly. “What are you looking at? Make way!”

The soldiers immediately put away their weapons. The ones who had come out later didn’t know what Ye Qingtong was testifying, while the first group who knew couldn’t keep their calm at all.

That’s actually true?! These people stopped 300,000 enemy troops?!

When did this happen?! And how is it even possible?!!

Their doubts were destined to be unanswered. With their omnipotent pass Ye Qingtong, the group of men entered Divine Light Fortress unimpeded.

Inside the fortress city, traces of war were still fresh. Looking around, one would see soldiers clearing up the corpses of their comrades as well as of the enemies with the help of the citizens. When they saw Bai Xiaofei’s group passing by, their attention was grabbed.

New cannon fodder? There are much fewer this time…

This was the thought that came to everyone’s mind.

After recapturing Divine Light Fortress, those who had all been so anxious before had regained their confidence. No one knew what Ye Qingcheng would do next and what direction Moonlight would go, but as long as their emperor was at the frontier, this confidence would only grow.

“Grand General, I can only bring you this far. It’s not a problem for you to see Her Majesty, but they…” the deputy commander stopped after leading Ye Qingtong’s group to the main keep entrance and looked at Bai Xiaofei’s group with a troubled expression.

If this was not the frontier, a deputy commander like her wouldn’t even have the right to bring over 600 men here…

“Just have someone go and report to her that General Bai has completed his mission and has returned,” said Ye Qingtong.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaofei was curiously looking around at the surroundings. The emperor is the emperor after all. I’m afraid that even a fly can’t get in with all these protective forces.

“Grand General, may I ask what they did?” the deputy commander looked at the raggedly dressed men doubtfully.

“With the strength of ten thousand, they stopped a 300,000-strong Sacks army and protected Crimson Moon Fortress from being invaded!” announced Ye Qingtong, stressing every word.

The deputy commander instantly looked shocked at this answer. She naturally wouldn’t question the authenticity of Ye Qingtong’s words. So if that is true…

The thought made her look at Bai Xiaofei with complicated emotions. In the end, she bowed to Ye Qingtong.
