C249 worldly cold (2/2)

”No reason?” His head drooped, his chest heaved. ”Then don't blame me, all of you — die!”

Once again, the demonic qi gathered together, and a terrifying aura spread out from him.

But just as he was about to attack, a voice rang out like thunder.

”Wait, this is my idea. Do you have any objections, General Ye?”

A man wearing a general's hat slowly walked out of the dispersed soldiers. He was the acting general of Academy Army, Meng Yi!

”Hehe, Brother Ye seems to be very angry.” He laughed and walked over, not fearing Chang Jing's angry gaze in the slightest, ”Look, didn't I already use this move on them so they won't steal anything from me! As for the commoners, all of them are as cowardly as mice. As long as we give them a little bit of color, they'll listen to us! ”

Chang Jing didn't say a word, she only clenched her fists tightly.

No wonder these soldiers were so fearless, no wonder Xiao Jian had to stop me again and again, it was all because of you!

”Speaking of which,” Meng Yi continued, ”It's rare for me to come out to check on the affairs of the people. How come something like this happened early in the morning?

With that, he kicked a roasted chicken away.

”Oh, I see!” He shouted at the soldiers, ”Everyone, thank General Ye. He has prepared such delicious food for us to improve our food! Don't you think so, General Ye? ”

Chang Jing still did not speak, her hands were trembling in anger as she tightly clenched her fists.

”Then …” Meng Yi rolled his eyes, then waved his hand: ”Okay, everyone can take these back, we won't return until we're drunk tonight!”

With that, he commanded the soldiers to load the vehicles and prepare to pull them away.

But at this time, four figures flashed in front of him like ghosts, blocking his path. From left to right were Huo Wu, Xue Ge, Yin Feng, and Nian Tu!

”Who are you? How dare you block my way?!”

”A dead man doesn't need to know our names!” The four of them simultaneously answered with low throats, ”You, you can die now!”

Before he could finish his sentence, the four of them attacked Meng Yi at the same time.

When their hands were about to come into contact with Meng Yi, Chang Jing stopped them.

”General Meng, take care!” He ignored the strong opposition of the four and said with a smile, ”Consider these things as my filial piety to you, old people. You must not care about these children.”

”You're sensible!” Meng Yi straightened his clothes that were messed up because of the panic, and brought the carriage away while cursing.

”Alright, let's all go back first. There's nothing else!” Chang Jing faced the crowd and said apologetically, ”I, Chang Jingye, promise you that I will give you an explanation!”

Everyone was disappointed or in pain. They either cleaned up the corpses of their friends and relatives or were helped away.

”You should be more careful in the future,” Xiao Jian worriedly waved his hand at Chang Jing, and said, ”I'll also be leaving first, something big happened in the army in the few days that you weren't here.”

Chang Jing smiled slightly, ”You should also be careful, Meng Yi is not a simple person.”

Before Chang Jing could even finish his sentence, her thoughts were pulled back by an angry curse as she watched Xiao Jian's departing figure.

”Wooden coward, why did you let this scum go!?” This kind of person can die a thousand times or even a hundred times! ”

Huo Wu gritted her teeth as she scolded, as if she had completely forgotten that the person she scolded was her most respected teacher.

Chang Jing ignored her and asked the other three.

”Do you all think so?”

The three of them did not reply, but the angry look on their faces was enough to explain everything.

Chang Jing sighed, then greeted the broken sword and walked back, and said: ”Hey, I will tell you why after we return home.”

Upon entering the room, Huo Wu asked again, ”Tell me, why don't you let us kill him?”

Chang Jing answered with a question, ”Do you think I don't want to kill him?”

”Hmph, you?” Huo Wu's eyes were filled with scorn. ”It's too late for you to please him. How can you bear to kill him!”

”To please him?” Chang Jing looked out of the window, ”So what if he erased his ambition to fulfill his duty as a great general because of my flattery? So what if I curry favor with him?”

”I think teacher must have his reasons,” Yin Feng continued, ”Are you right, teacher?”
