Chapter 837: Chapter 317: Taken DownThree days passed swiftly, and Yang Lin was in the study handling governmental affairs when a General walked in, bowing: âFamily Head.â
Yang Lin glanced at the visitor and then recalled Lu Hong, who he had assigned to the Yang familyâs Spirit Command, likely not obeying military orders and making the Spirit Commandâs Commander come to complain, so he said: âWhat? Our Spirit Commandâs Great General couldnât control that kid?â
Upon hearing this, the Spirit Commandâs Great General gave a wry smile: âIf it was just a matter of not controlling him, I would accept it, but coming to complain to the Family Head? Thatâs a different story.â
âHmm?â Yang Lin asked, puzzled: âWhatâs the matter then?â
âFamily Head, that kid simply hasnât come for duty at all!â The Spirit Commandâs Great General grumbled: âThe first day he didnât come, I let it pass. On the second day, I sent my Deputy General to personally invite him. Guess what, that kid claimed he had caught a cold, was sick, and refused to come for duty.â
âThis morning, I even went to the Southern Courtyard myself, but it was useless; I couldnât even see a glimpse of him, as they wouldnât open the door.â
After hearing the Spirit Command Great Generalâs complaints, Yang Lin felt confused. The kid seemed to have unclear intentions and had some ulterior motives regarding the Yang family. Assigning him the position of Spirit Commandâs Deputy General was a way to test him, knowing that the Spirit Command was a special military force on which the Yang family expended vast resources and was also the foundation of the entire Yang family.
It makes no sense!
Why wouldnât he be tempted?
Yang Lin murmured inwardly, his eyebrows slightly furrowing.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something.
He slammed the table, startling even the Spirit Commandâs Great General.
âDamn it!â Yang Lin couldnât help but curse aloud, realizing that if the kid didnât covet the Spirit Commandâs secrets nor Yang familyâs military administration, then his intentions were obvious; he was after Yang Xiuxiu, his precious!
Can this be tolerated?
Yang Lin immediately thought of imprisoning Lu Hong under the pretext of refusing duty, locking him up for life.
But with less than ten days to go before the martial competition, Lu Hong was undoubtedly the best choice, causing Yang Lin to feel quite conflicted.
Ultimately, Yang Lin waved his hand: âForget it, if the kid doesnât want to report for duty, so be it. Iâll deal with him after the competition.â
Since the Family Head had spoken, the Spirit Commandâs Great General naturally had no reason to argue, thus left.
Meanwhile, in the Southern Courtyard, Tian Shengwu curiously asked: âStar Lord, why donât you report to the Spirit Command? That is the strongest army in the Yang family. If we could understand their daily training and equipment configuration, maybe we could replicate a similar army.â
Lu Hong opened one eye from his meditation, glancing at Tian Shengwu: âGiven itâs a core army, do you think Yang Lin would trust me so easily?â
âCertainly not, but even with concealment, we should be able to gain some understanding, right?â
âWithout touching the core, whatâs the use of mere appearance?â With that, Lu Hong closed his eyes: âStop bothering me, go play by yourself.â
âIâŚ,â Tian Shengwu was speechless, like the emperor not worrying while the eunuch panicked. He constantly thought about how to expand the Star Sea Power, yet their leader seemed unconcerned about these matters.
Tian Shengwu was about to say something when the sound of knocking was heard again.
âWu Sheng, open the door!â
Upon hearing the voice, it seemed to be Yang Suxin.
Tian Shengwu opened the courtyard gate, puzzled: âWhy are you here?â
Yang Suxin shot him a glance and then looked inside: âIs Lu Hong here?â
âHe is. Do you need me to call him?â
âNo need, I heard from the Spirit Command that heâs sick, so I wonât disturb him,â Yang Suxin said indifferently.
âOh.â Tian Shengwu nodded and was about to close the door.
Yang Suxin quickly stuck her hand out, blocking the gate: âWhy are you closing the door?â
âArenât you not here to see Brother Lu?â
âJust because Iâm not here to see him doesnât mean Iâm not here to see you.â
âWhat? Why see me?â Tian Shengwu, suddenly realizing something, bashfully added: âWell, itâs not impossible to see me, if youâve taken a liking to me, give me a definite answer, and I promise to agree with you.â
The more he spoke, the darker Yang Suxinâs face became. She immediately pulled Tian Shengwu out of the courtyard: âGet out!â
Just like that, Tian Shengwu was dragged all the way to Yang familyâs training area by Yang Suxin.
There were over three hundred arenas of various sizes here, along with various training apparatuses, all aimed at enhancing the practical skills of the Yang family members.
Yang Suxin rudely pushed Tian Shengwu onto a larger arena, picked up a long spear, and pointed it at his throat.
Tian Shengwu looked at the sharp edge only half an inch away from his throat and chuckled: âGeneral Yang, what act are you putting on?â
âYou narrowly escaped the previous battle at the drill ground. Do you think you donât have to fight now?â
âI see.â Tian Shengwu nodded: âSince thatâs the case, letâs fight then.â
Upon hearing this, Yang Suxin retracted her spear: âWhat weapon do you want to choose?â
âJust empty-handed will do. I fear if I use a weapon, I might accidentally hurt you.â
âArrogant words!â Yang Suxin was angered by Tian Shengwuâs words, immediately asking the guards below the arena to activate the protective barrier.
The next second, Yang Suxin charged with her spear, aiming at Tian Shengwu.
Having had Lu Hong as an example, Tian Shengwu knew how much strength to exert; following Lu Hongâs standard was to crush Yang Suxin.
Yang Suxin moved extremely fast, releasing a rain of spears, yet even so, Tian Shengwu could still calmly respond, even finding time to give Yang Suxin a pat or two on her body.
Yang Suxin felt the strange sensation at her waist, fueling her anger within.
The Magic Power within her suddenly erupted, flames leaping upon her spear.
âFire Dragon Slash!â
Yang Suxin shouted fiercely, her spear striking like a dragon, akin to a furious fire dragon lunging at Tian Shengwu.
