Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 995: Chapter 996: Black Water Plain! (Part 2)

”Yes!”

Sun Boce nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice, ”Grand Commander, this General Ling, is perhaps more formidable than we anticipated!”

Yuan Tiangang took a deep breath, sat upright on the main command seat, and tapped his fingers on the armrest, silent for a long while.

Inside the tent, all the generals fell into silence as well. Who would have thought that a mere inexperienced young lad could rise to become the most outstanding prodigy in Tianmang Fortress?

The most crucial point being, this prodigy just happens to stand on the side of King Jing.

With Ling Feng’s current influence in Tianmang Fortress, even the Three Armies Grand Commander cannot ignore him.

After a while, Yuan Tiangang slightly raised his eyes, a glint of cold light flashed, and he slowly said, ”Indeed, this young man is a talent. Right now, with the Demon Clan causing trouble, his arrival might not be a bad thing.”

”Grand Commander, what do you mean?”

Sun Boce’s eyelid twitched, a thought flashed in his mind, and he looked at Yuan Tiangang, hoping to glean some details from Yuan Tiangang’s expression to confirm his idea.

Unfortunately, he ultimately couldn’t discern Yuan Tiangang’s thoughts. This Grand Commander is indeed worthy of the name ”Silver Fox,” with deep cunning and strategy. Even a smart person like him can’t fathom Yuan Tiangang’s mind.

”Since he’s here, let’s make good use of him. Whether he stands by my side or King Jing’s side, in the end, he’s here to deal with the Demon Clan, isn’t it?”

Yuan Tiangang laughed coldly, his expression solemn as he said, ”If he wants military power, then I’ll give him military power! Sun Junshi, convey my order to triple Ling Feng’s subordinates and troops within three days, and have him support Black Water Plain with his army!”

”Black Water Plain?”

Wang Meng and Lee Qing exchanged glances, both drawing a sharp breath.

The area around Black Water Plain is easy to attack but hard to defend. Even many veteran generals from the fortress failed to hold it for ten or fifteen days before returning defeated and some even lost their lives there.

Relying solely on Ling Feng, a young lad still wet behind the ears, though he indeed has some capability, he remains just a youth. Has he ever been on a real battlefield?

Arriving at such treacherous terrain at Black Water Plain, they feared that not even setting up camp would be completed before being completely engulfed by the Demon Clan’s army.

Sun Boce also felt a tightness in his heart; the Grand Commander’s move seemed like using a borrowed knife to kill, but giving Ling Feng three times the troop size, isn’t it also sending those tens of thousands of soldiers to die with Ling Feng?

”Grand Commander, this matter cannot be, absolutely!”

Inside the Commander Tent, an old general hurriedly stepped forward, saying in a deep voice, ”This General Ling is indeed a rare talent, but when it comes to leading troops in battle, he is completely an outsider. Sending him to Black Water Plain in his first deployment is akin to sending a sheep into a tiger’s den!”

This old general could also vaguely understand some of Yuan Tiangang’s thoughts, but sending nearly 200,000 troops to accompany Ling Feng to their graves seemed too muddled.

”You all truly believe Ling Feng knows nothing about commanding troops?”

Yuan Tiangang snorted lightly, ”Think carefully about how this lad led the Black Armored Cavalry Army to devour the Demon Clan’s army of 50,000!”

”This...”

The old general was momentarily speechless, only managing to say after a while, ”The elite of the Black Armored Cavalry Army is unlike the ordinary, plus half-way ambush; put simply, it was child’s play!”

”Whatever kind of play it is, I have made up my mind! I give him one month’s time. If within the month he cannot recover the lost ground of Black Water Plain, he must deliver his head to see me!”

Yuan Tiangang’s gaze swept across, and all the generals immediately fell silent, not daring to say another word.

”Dismissed!”

Yuan Tiangang took a deep breath and waved his hand.

The generals dispersed, but only the think tank Sun Boce stayed behind. After everyone had exited the camp, he spoke solemnly to Yuan Tiangang, ”Grand Commander, there’s another matter I need to report to you.”

”What is it, speak.”

Yuan Tiangang lifted his hand to gently press his temples, revealing a look of extreme fatigue. Though occupying a high position, facing the pressure of the Demon Clan army pressing on the border, being the Grand Commander is certainly not easy.

”Grand Commander, I saw Miss Chu Chu in the Hundred Battle Arena.” Sun Boce said in a deep voice.

”Chu Chu?” Yuan Tiangang’s pupils shrank, then he shook his head with a smile, rare kindness shown on his face, and said lightly, ”That girl is always in disguise, coming to the army to cause chaos!”

”It’s different this time.” Sun Boce slowly said, ”This time, Miss Chu Chu seems to entangle with General Ling Feng.”

”What? That crazy girl!”

Yuan Tiangang’s mouth twitched; the ”Miss Chu Chu” Sun Boce referred to, fully named Yan Chuchu, is Yuan Tiangang’s granddaughter whom he cherishes dearly, like a pearl in his palm.

Yuan Tiangang didn’t wish for his beloved granddaughter to get involved in military matters, so even among the generals at Tianmang Fortress, few have seen Yan Chuchu. Unfortunately, this rebellious girl often sneaks into the barracks against Yuan Tiangang’s wishes, causing quite a headache.

”I think Miss Chu Chu is probably just curious about General Ling Feng.” Sun Boce shook his head and laughed, ”When her interest wanes, the young lady will naturally go home obediently.”

”This time, I will not let that crazy girl act impulsively. Think Tank, this matter is entrusted to you; send that mad girl home no matter what. If she disagrees, tie her back for me!”

Yuan Tiangang flicked his sleeve; at this crucial moment, she’s out causing a ruckus, truly never letting this old man have peace!

”Yes!”

Sun Boce accepted the command. Given the present situation, there was indeed no room for this young lady to act out foolishly.

...

On the other side.

After returning from the Hundred Battle Arena, Ling Feng slept for a full day and night!

Fortunately, his domineering and powerful physique, coupled with Zi Feng’s vitality-sharing ability, had restored Ling Feng almost to peak condition.

One must admit, although Zi Feng’s combat skills were lacking, his support abilities were extraordinarily strong.

If it were an average person, pushed to the extent Ling Feng was, being unconscious for ten days and nights wouldn’t be too much.

For instance, Linghu Yudao, after being sent back, went straight into secluded cultivation and hasn’t emerged yet.

”Hmm!”

Stretching his body, Ling Feng got up from bed, though his body still felt a bit sore, there was no significant issue.

Recalling the last battle, it was indeed fraught with danger. In this little Tianmang Fortress, there are such skilled masters; imagine the entire Eastern Spirit Domain, and even wider world, what kind of strong ones lie ahead?

Thinking about this, Ling Feng’s heart was instead filled with excitement.

Battling against experts would stimulate his continuous improvement. Just like after this battle, Ling Feng felt his Chaos Origin Pattern seemed ready to fully form.

”I wonder what it’s like outside now.”

Ling Feng smiled lightly, just as he lifted the curtain and saw five armored commanders kneeling outside his tent.

At the forefront was Xu Zhongda!
