C94 (1/2)
Early the next morning, Teng Qianhao sent the thousand generals to the Dongfang family. After saying a few words, Teng Yan quickly left. Right now, the most important thing for him was to find the whereabouts of the princess. However, he had no idea that the princess he was looking for was at the Dongfang family's residence ….
Looking at the thousand mighty generals in front of him, Teng Yan smiled inwardly. He was very satisfied with these people. Each of them had an imposing and solemn aura that belonged solely to the soldiers. However, this was still far from enough for Teng Yan …. They still lacked one thing, and that was killing intent. A monstrous killing intent that was enough to frighten an opponent without fighting. A killing intent that was enough to cause anyone to tremble in fear …
”Have you killed anyone?” Teng Yan stood quietly and looked at the thousand soldiers before him as he spoke softly. His words were simple, but they were filled with a powerful aura, an aura that was enough to make people fear him …. Teng Yan was very clear that these people were once Teng Qianhao's subordinates. All they had was the heroic spirit of a guardian, and now, what he needed was a murderous spirit that could slaughter the entire world. These were two completely different auras. If he wanted to change his mind, he had to do it himself. Experiencing them...
Hearing Teng Yan's words, everyone was shocked and at the same time, they became silent. Yes, as soldiers of the empire, it was their duty to protect their families and protect their country, killing all enemies that came to attack them. To soldiers, killing was actually the easiest thing to do. However, in this era of peace, how could they talk about killing people when they had never entered a battlefield before?
Looking at everyone's silence, Teng Yan said with a smile, ”Have you ever had the desire to kill someone?”
Silence, silence, and all the soldiers stared at Teng Yan in astonishment. They did not know who this young man in front of them was, nor did they know why they were standing here today. What did it mean? Right now, there were countless questions in their hearts that they wanted someone to answer.
”Reporting in …” In the midst of everyone's silence, a loud voice suddenly sounded from within the group. Everyone's gazes instantly fell on his body.
”I'm not a soldier, so you don't have to be so serious. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
”Yes, sir. I had the desire to kill before, and now, and in the future …” The soldier said angrily. From his eyes, Teng Yan could see anger and a trace of faint killing intent … … However, this killing intent was very subtle, very subtle …
”Oh …” ”Why?” Teng Yan said with a smile.
”Today, I had a happy family, I had a good life that belonged to me, but all of this disappeared a year ago. At that time, the city I lived in was known as the main city of Beisha, a second class city of the Empire, the young city lord there took a fancy to my wife …” The soldier narrated in an indifferent tone. It was so sad, so bitter, and so miserable that it seemed like everyone around him had been infected … ” I wanted to die, but I wanted revenge even more, so I lived on. That's why I joined the empire's army. I want revenge, so I need strength and power. I need power over the City Lord's position in the Empire's second rank city … ”However, it's been over a year and I'm still just a soldier. I'm still just a soldier who can't withstand a single blow …”
From anger to disappointment to unwillingness …
