My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield-Chapter 256 - I Guessed
Chapter 256: I Guessed
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The voice spread throughout the entire continent.
Following that was an endless pressure.
No one dared to treat this as a joke any longer.
The majestic voice had sternly given out all the orders, and no one dared to defy it.
Emperor Yan, who was still thinking about how to recapture the lost land, sighed and said, “Pass down the order, all war stops.”
Qin Wenchang did not say anything else.
As the Prime Minister, he also knew some secrets of the world.
In the Great Chu Royal Palace, Xiang Feiyan hurriedly summoned Xiang Ding.
“Fourth Great Grandfather, were those the words of a Saint?”
Xiang Ding nodded with a solemn expression and said, “That’s right, I’m afraid something big is going to happen!”
Xiang Feiyan pondered for a moment and hurriedly ordered, “Get Su Wen to return to the capital quickly!”
In reality, even if she did not say anything, Su Wen was already rushing back to the capital with the other Heaven Ranks.
Right now, the one with the most complicated feelings was the Ji Luo Royal Family, the Bai Family!
If he could hold on for a while longer until the ceasefire was ordered, wouldn’t everything be fine?
But now, the entire Ji Luo Country had been swallowed up.
What was the use of calling for a ceasefire?
Su Changqing was also very surprised.
However, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with him.
He still handled government affairs as usual every day, going up and down the court on time. His days were comfortable and relaxed.
Another court assembly ended, and Su Changqing returned home.
“Master, there’s someone waiting for you in the living room. He said he’s your friend!” a servant reported.
“Friend?” Su Changqing raised his eyebrows. This word was too extravagant for him.
When he entered the living room, he saw a familiar person. It was Gongsun Shi!
Su Changqing smiled and said, “So it’s Senior Gongsun! What brings you here?”
Although he was full of smiles, his heart was in turmoil.
He had already guessed Gongsun Shi’s identity a long time ago.
He had a bad feeling seeing his arrival.
As expected, Gongsun Shi looked at him and said in a low voice, “In 30 days, follow me to the extreme north of the continent!”
Su Changqing had a bitter expression and said, “Senior, I don’t have strength in my shoulders nor hands. I’m just a weak scholar, I can’t fight or run. What’s the use of having me there?”
“Heh heh!” Gongsun Shi sneered. “I don’t need you to fight for me! But this matter is a matter of the survival of the human race. It can’t be done purely by force. You’re very sinister, kid. Those Emperors and experts all have their own thoughts, so I need you to help me! Controlling the hearts of people and scheming against each other is not my forte!”
Su Changqing sighed and said, “A dignified Saint… wants me, an ordinary person, to help?”
Gongsun Shi was not surprised that Su Changqing had guessed his identity.
“If you help me, I’ll help you step into the martial path!” Gongsun Shi looked at Su Changqing before he coldly laughed. “Moreover, you’re not an ordinary person either. Don’t think that I can’t see what you’re hiding.”
“Hahahaha! I can’t hide it from Senior.” Su Changqing laughed.
After laughing, he asked with a solemn expression, “Senior, what do you need this junior to do?”
Gongsun Shi sighed, “The Nine Nether Island is about to reappear, and the entrance between the Demon race and the human world is about to be linked!”
When he revealed this piece of news, even Su Changqing’s expression changed drastically.
His mind raced. One had to know that the Chu Country was extremely close to the North Pole. Once the Demon Race reappeared, the Chu Country would be the first to bear the brunt!
“Senior, then your intentions?” Su Changqing probed.
Gongsun Shi said in a deep voice, “The reappearance of the Demon Race is already impossible to resist, but we can’t let them invade the human world. We have to think of a way to resist it on Nine Nether Island. So I want to gather all the forces in the world to resist the Demon Race!”
“The problem is, I’m afraid that these people are not united. They only agree on the surface but oppose each other on the inside.”
Su Changqing shook his head and said, “That is of course.”
“So I hope you can think of a way to help me manage these people at the same time to resist the demons.”
Su Changqing smiled wryly. “They’re all Heaven Rank experts. You think too highly of me, senior. I say, can’t you suppress them using your strength and identity as a sage?”
Gongsun Shi shook his head and said, “I have my own matters to attend to!”
In reality, there were some things that he did not say!
This time, when he had entered the void to investigate, he ended up facing off against the Demon Race’s Emperor!
It could be said that both sides were severely injured from the battle.
It was already a blessing for him to be able to return alive.
Even now, he was still severely injured.
Unfortunately, even if he didn’t say it, Su Changqing had already guessed it.
“Looks like there’s someone in the Demon Race that can fight Senior on equal grounds.”
Gongsun Shi glanced at Su Changqing and sighed. “You really are smart.”
Gongsun Shi sighed, before he continued. “Back then, the Nine Saints and Four Emperors of the Human Race suffered heavy losses along with the Demon Race. I’m the only Saint of the Human Race now, but the Demon Race will not have too many experts at their Emperor Rank as well. Otherwise, I won’t be able to return this time.”
He said in a deep voice, “Nine Nether Island will be relinked with the human world. No matter what, we can’t let those demons step in our land!”
Su Changqing also let out a long sigh. He knew that he had no room to refuse.
Or rather, he could not refuse. No matter how he looked at it, he could not refuse this matter.
The simplest logic was that if the nest was destroyed, how could there still be an unharmed egg?
Very quickly, Su Wen arrived back at the capital.
He brought Yan Luoying back as well.
The moment he entered the house, he saw Zhao Jin carrying a small mountain-like rock as he ran through the courtyard…
His face was warped into a ferocious visage as he panted desperately…
Obviously, this sort of cultivation was very painful.
When he saw Su Wen enter, joy flashed across his face.
“Young Master! Young Master! I missed you so much.”
He threw the rock to the side before charging over.
Peng!
Ning Shuang suddenly appeared and kicked his ass!
Brother Jin immediately fell face forward, feeling like a dog who planted its nose straight into a pile of feces.
“Don’t take the opportunity to be lazy!” Ning Shuang reprimanded.
How could she not tell what Zhao Jin was thinking?
“Add another 50 rounds!”
As Ning Shuang spoke, Zhao Jin’s expression turned bitter.
“Young Master, save me!”
Su Wen rolled his eyes in response.
“Save you? How? You… practice hard!”
Su Wen knew that this was not the time to be soft-hearted.
Furthermore, something big was about to happen.
The stronger the power of his people, the better.
In the following period of time, more and more Heaven Rank experts began to move towards the northern border.
For most people, they had no idea what was going on.
Su Wen was in no hurry to leave. They were close by, so he stroked his chin and pondered with Ning Shuang.
“Say, do you think anyone will not want to listen to that person? Why don’t I believe in his words? What can he do if we really don’t go?”
Ning Shuang shook her head and said, “That person’s words contain the sound of the Great Dao. The pressure is extremely strong. If we don’t go, wouldn’t we be in big trouble if we are targeted by him? Furthermore, we don’t know if it’s a good or bad thing. Let’s go take a look first.”
In reality, this was the mentality of most people.
Since everyone was going, then so be it.
For a moment, be it experts who were hiding their strength or people who were cultivating in the forest…
They all began to move towards the extreme north of the continent.
It was majestic!
How many Heaven Rank experts were there on the continent?
This time, there would be a number pegged to it.
However, for most ordinary people, this sort of event was too far fetched for them.
For example, Bai Zhi…
As a descendant of the Ji Luo Royal Family, she had also been relocated to the Great Chu Capital.
Xiang Feiyan gave them some money and settled them down.
However, compared to the past, life was completely incomparable.
She could only say that she was rich and healthy, but not extravagantly lavish…
At this moment, Bai Zhi sat on the second floor of the restaurant…
She drank her wine in boredom.
Suddenly, she saw a familiar person.
Su Changqing!
Su Changqing came out from the Southern Ocean store opposite her restaurant. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked extremely unrestrained.
“Young Master Su!” Baizhi called out in surprise.
She hurriedly went downstairs. At this moment, the carriage had already slowly left.
In this city, Su Changqing’s carriage was not fast… so Bai Zhi took the chance to follow behind…
Soon, Su Changqing got off the carriage and went home.
The large Su Residence plaque was so dazzling in Bai Zhi’s eyes…
As soon as Su Changqing entered the residence, someone reported, “Master, there’s a lady outside the door who calls herself Bai Zhi. She wants to see you!”
Sssssss…
Su Changqing sucked in a cold breath involuntarily.
What nonsense was this?!
Why did that woman enter the capital? Oh right, she was from the Ji Luo Country’s royal family!
How could he have forgotten about this?
However, she should not come looking for him either way!
That woman had a husband!
“Not seeing! Tell her to leave!” Su Changqing said directly.
He did not want to have anything to do with this woman.
After all, Old Su was not too interested in cuckolding others.
It was fine if he had been lied to the previous time, but he did not want to do it again!
Bai Zhi soon received the answer.
She screamed, “What? You don’t want to see me? You want me to leave? I’m not leaving! I want to see Young Master Su! Young Master Su, have you forgotten what a wonderful time we had back then?”
Good lord, her voice was not soft either.
The gatekeeper said angrily, “Don’t spout nonsense. My master is the current Minister of Appointments, how can you slander him?”
Bai Zhi was overjoyed to hear that Su Changqing was in a high position. She said loudly, “In that case, quickly report to Young Master Su and let me in to talk. Otherwise, I won’t leave.”
At this moment, Su Wen’s carriage appeared.
Zhao Jin was the one driving the carriage!
Brother Jin was in great spirits today. Su Wen gave him half a day off and even let him go out with him.
The carriage stopped at the entrance and Su Wen alighted.
He glanced at Bai Zhi before he sneered, “Who are you, and what are you here for?”
When the gatekeeper saw Su Wen, he hurriedly bowed and said, “Third Master, she came to cause trouble and insisted on seeing Master.”
Bai Zhi shouted, “Bullsh*t, I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m on very good terms with Young Master Su!”
Su Wen looked at her. Her looks were excellent, but her actions…
He didn’t know that his father had such low requirements!
How would Su Wen know that she was not like this when Changqing first met her!
Su Wen went forward and smiled. “You want to see my father?”
Bai Zhi was stunned. “Your father? You said Young Master Su is your father?”
Su Wen smiled and said, “That’s right. In this residence, there’s only my father. I’m the youngest in the family, and my two brothers have already gone to live by themselves. If you’re not here to see my father, then who else?”
“Then I want to see your father!” Bai Zhi said, “My relationship with him is not ordinary!”
Su Wen looked at the door and asked, “Have you told my father?”
“Yes, Old Master said that he would not see her!”
Upon hearing this, Su Wen knew what was going on.
He sighed in his heart. It seemed like he had to clean up Old Su’s mess this time.
“Get lost! Get lost quickly! Didn’t you hear my father say that he won’t see you? You still dare to come to my house to act shamelessly? Why don’t you go and listen around to who I am? Do you believe that I, your grandfather, will slaughter your entire family?”
Su Wen would not give her any face.
Firstly, he believed in Su Changqing’s character. He was not the kind of person who would abandon someone after taking them.
Furthermore, Bai Zhi did not look like an easy person to deal with.
If she spoke gently and pitifully, Su Wen might even give her some money to try and smooth things over.
However, she was just making a scene.
Furthermore, she kept mentioning about Su Changqing’s relationship with her. Who knew what she was up to?
For such a person, the more he gave face, the easier it was for problems to arise.
Su Wen immediately spoke about killing her entire family!
However, Bai Zhi was not someone who was easily frightened. She immediately revealed her identity. “Hehe! Aren’t you afraid that you’ll cut off your tongue by saying you’ll kill my entire family? Why don’t you kill one for me to see? I’m the princess of Ji Luo Country’s royal family. You either let Young Master Su come and see me, or I’ll let everyone know what kind of person your Su family is!”
Su Wen sneered and turned around to leave before entering the residence.
“Everyone, listen up. Let me tell you… this Su family…” Bai Zhi opened her mouth and was about to shout to slander them.
Bang!
Zhao Jin had already appeared in front of her.
A punch landed on her stomach!
With that punch, Bai Zhi instantly fell to the ground with tears and saliva streaming down her face. She clutched her stomach and bent over like a shrimp.
Zhao Jin coldly shouted, “My young master is the Great Chu Nanli King! I’m not afraid to tell you that even if I kill your entire Bai family, no one will dare to say a word!”
Bai Zhi immediately cowered at the mention of Su Wen’s name!
It was precisely Su Wen that had brought the Heaven Rank experts to Ji Luo Country to start the Heaven Rank War. Towards this couple, Su Wen and Yan Luoying, the mere mention of their names would make the Ji Luo people feel fear!
Especially since these two were from the same family…
When Zhao Jin saw the door keepers, he coldly continued, “You guys are at fault too. This kind of shrew must be taught a lesson at once. Come, slap her mouth ten times!”
The guard had long been displeased with Bai Zhi. Upon hearing what Zhao Jin said, he immediately came over and slapped ten times!
Zhao Jin took out a banknote worth ten thousand taels of silver and threw it to Bai Zhi!
“Hmph! This time, I’ll spare your life. Take this money to see the doctor! If there’s a next time, or if I hear anything unfavorable to my master in the city, be careful of your entire family’s lives!” Zhao Jin shouted coldly.
With Su Wen’s status, he was unwilling to argue with this shrew.
He could not be bothered with her.
As for Zhao Jin, he was naturally a lackey who fully understood his leader’s intentions!
With his status, he had to do whatever his master was unwilling to do!
Beating her was to let her know how powerful they were. Giving her a little more money was to give her some comfort and benefits, warning her that this would be the end.
As expected, Bai Zhi did not dare to say anything else. She grabbed the banknotes and turned around to run.
In the room, Su Wen looked at Su Changqing and teased, “Father, you can’t even do this. Why did you let someone come up to your doorstep? You even need me to clean up your mess.”
Su Changqing blushed. Today’s matter was a little embarrassing. He waved his hand and said, “I didn’t think that there would be such a coincidence in this world. This woman actually came right up to my house.”
“What’s going on?” Su Wen’s heart was burning with gossip.
Su Changqing didn’t hide anything and sighed before telling the truth.
Su Wen laughed maniacally after hearing the recount.
“You’re really good! You believe her just because she said she’s a widow? Alright, why did you call me here?”
Su Changqing said in a deep voice, “It’s about Nine Nether Island!”
“Nine Nether Island?” Su Wen narrowed his eyes.
Su Changqing started to tell Su Wen, “The Ancient Nine Saints and Four Emperors fought with the Demon Race and fought a decisive battle on Nine Nether Island! In the end, they shattered Nine Nether Island, as well as turning the Ten Thousand Miles Wasteland into a world of void! Now, the Demon Race has reconstructed Nine Nether Island and is trying to reconnect the two worlds! The one who summoned you is the 10th Saint of the Human Race!”
“The 10th Saint of the Human Race?”
This was the first time Su Wen had heard of this name.
“That’s right!” Su Changqing said. “Ever since the great battle of Nine Nether Island, only one human has risen up to become a Saint. It’s also because of him that Heaven Rank experts cannot attack ordinary people. Once a Heaven Rank expert massacres the ordinary citizens, they will be killed!”
Su Changqing sighed. “If it weren’t for him, the world would’ve been thrown into chaos long ago. Once a Heaven Rank expert says that he wants to target ordinary people, the world will be thrown into chaos!”
“Hehe! I don’t think so!”
Su Wen smiled disdainfully. “Perhaps after the Heaven Rank experts are completely released, all the countries will be afraid to attack each other.”
Su Changqing naturally understood what he meant. To put it bluntly, if a Heaven Rank was allowed to roam free, they could easily escape if the war was not in their favor. The Ji Luo Country’s experts were the best example.
After escaping, they could instead turn around and launch attacks on a small town in Chu.
No one could stop him unless they found and killed him!
Su Changqing smiled and said, “What you said is possible, but you have to know that a long period of peace is not what he wants to see.”
“Eh?”
Su Wen narrowed his eyes.
Su Changqing explained, “That’s how humans are. The more they fight, the easier it is for them to produce experts. The wars between the various countries are endless, but it has also tempered many talents. Let’s not talk about anything else, why are there more Heaven Rank experts in the royal families? It’s because they participate in more battles!”
“Comparatively speaking, there are far fewer cultivators in the sect who have broken through to the Heaven Rank. Although there are conflicts in the martial world, they are far inferior in terms of frequency and scale compared to wars.”
Su Changqing sighed and said, “Fighting is the source of humanity’s advancement!”
“And from a higher point of view, he is considering the advancement of the entire human race, not the death of pure life. A large number of low-level lives are the foundation for nurturing higher levels of life and power.”
After hearing Su Changqing’s words, Su Wen roughly understood.
“So, once Nine Nether Island reappears, there will be a war between the Human and Demon Clans? That’s why he gathered us?”
Su Changqing nodded. “That’s right! So you can think about what you should do to maximize the benefits of Great Chu. You have to know that it’s impossible for all of these people to enter the island. Many of the Emperors themselves are also Heaven Rank cultivators. How to maintain the balance of power within the island, how to maintain the balance of power outside the island, and how to make these people accept it is all a problem. Think about it carefully when you return.”
Su Wen touched his chin and said curiously, “Father, you seem to know quite a lot. But when I saw Xiang Ding two days ago, he only had a guess as to what was happening.”
Su Changqing smiled and said, “That’s also my guess. But you know that your father’s guess has always been quite accurate.”
“Alright!”
Su Wen did not suspect anything and stood up to leave.
After he left, Gongsun Shi appeared.
He looked at Su Changqing and said indifferently, “You shouldn’t have leaked some of your thoughts in advance.”
Su Changqing smiled. “Senior, I’m a selfish person. I never think about being impartial. If you don’t like it, then don’t use me. If you choose to use me, I’ll definitely give my family some benefits.. Humans are all like this. If we don’t have a good relationship, you might not have approached me for help, right? After all, there are many smart people!”
