Chapter 1116 of "Red Heart Patrols the Sky" unveils a new twist: A jar of liquor came flying toward him.He deftly dodged it.The jar shattered on the... See what happens!
A jar of liquor came flying toward him.He deftly dodged it.
The jar shattered on the ground, and instantly the aroma of wine filled the air.
What a waste!
Zhao Erting thought.
âFuck off!â
The familiar voice of General Du Yehu returnedâŚ
Du Yehu roared, âDo I look like Iâm asking you what you think?
You half-wit who can barely read, your opinion counts for shit!â
Zhao Erting shrank back, and for some reason, he now felt much more at ease.
He said grievously, âBut it was you who asked!â
Du Yehu wanted to throw another jar at him, but seeing none around, he thought about throwing the military book in front of him that he barely understood, yet he decided against reaching for it.
He just shouted angrily, âIâm asking what else that old dog Zhang said!â
Zhao Erting scratched his head, âThatâs all he seemed to have said.â
The matter suppressed by the State Minister, Mr.
Zhang probably didnât dare to say moreâŚ
Seeing the confused Zhao Erting, Du Yehu was filled with frustration and waved his hand, âGet lost!â
âIâll get lostâŚâ Zhao Erting seemed quite proud of himself as he turned and walked away.
âWait!â Du Yehu called out to him again and said sternly, âRemember, donât ever talk to me about Fenglin City again!
Keep those words rotting in your belly forever!â
âThatâs great!â Zhao Erting was openly joyous, âIâve been sick of talking about it!
If it werenât for fear of you hitting meâŚâ
He stopped himself.
Du Yehuâs face darkened, âGet lost!â
Zhao Erting lifted the tent flap and briskly left.
In the now empty tent, Du Yehu sighed again.
If only Xiao Wu were aliveâŚ
Why would he need to use his brain then?
Based on what Duan Li had said, the best course of action would be to kill Zhao Erting, as dead men keep secrets best.
With Zhao Erting gone, nobody would remember his relationship with Jiang WangâŚ
But he really couldnât bring himself to do it.
Otherwise, the jar thrown earlier would have been the end of Zhao Erting.
Fortunately, this simpleton was a bit dull but obedient.
If he promised something, he would do it.
There shouldnât be any problems.
Du Yehu rubbed his head, forcing himself to look at the military book.
Damn itâŚ
How do you read this character?
Is it âhorseâ or âfourâ?
These two lousy characters next to each other, which side am I supposed to read from!
He got annoyed again.
That scoundrel Yang Yin didnât even bother to add any notes!
In the midst of his annoyance, he suddenly looked up and grabbed a single mace.
Instantly, his blood surged around him, a menacing aura faintly visible.
Indeed, he had taken a treasured blade from the inner storeroom of the Son of Heaven but didnât use it, instead setting it up in his residence for worship.
After seeing this, State Minister Du, though he criticized him, saying a blade is meant to be used, was clearly pleased.
As for this single mace, it was left by Duan Li.
Originally a pair, one had been destroyed on the battlefield of Zhuang Yong, broken by Marquis Chengde of Yong Country, Li Yin.
The pair of maces was named âSeizing the Enemy,â but Duan Li hadnât managed to use it to seize his enemy, and now only one remained, which might as well be called âSending to Death.â
Yang Yin, being more cultured, suggested calling it âSending to Funeralâ instead.
Thinking it over, Du Yehu indeed felt he should hold a funeral for Duan Li, and thus he settled on this name.
At this moment, Du Yehu held the âSending to Funeralâ mace, his presence like a fierce tiger, his aura like a ruthless deity.
His murderous aura roared and steamed, enveloping the whole military tent.
In the thickly murderous atmosphere, a small white crane âdrilled out.â
The white crane flew midair, disintegrating into mist, which then transformed into a floating, ethereal figure.
The figure faced Du Yehu, his voice clear and melodious, âGeneral Du, I mean no harm.â
Du Yehu was holding a mourning mace, his face emotionless, showing no favoritism despite the opposing partyâs stunning beauty.
He simply stated icily, âYou donât have much time to explain.â
âI am Ye Qingyu, a friend of Jiang Wang.â
The woman, transformed from the clouds, said, âIâve come to help you.â
Du Yehu remained silent.
Ye Qingyu looked at the fierce and fearsome man and had no choice but to continue, âJiang Wang sent me a message saying that he was going to attend the Yellow River Gathering soon, and some matters might not be kept secret anymore.
You might be in danger in Zhuang Country.
Hence, he asked me to fetch you.â
âI appreciate your kindness,â Du Yehu responded blandly.
âPlease leave.â
Yun He had traveled from Qi Country, which had already taken some time.
Meeting some unexpected disturbance and getting scattered, slowly regathering also took time.
Ye Qingyu received the message late; she had arrived in Jiujiang City yesterday, but it wasnât until tonight that she found the opportunity to meet Du Yehu alone.
In Jiang Wangâs letter, Du Yehu was supposed to either comply or go to Xinâan City without saying a word to fight; there was no mention of the reaction Du Yehu was showing now.
âI truly am Jiang Wangâs friend.
I can prove it in many ways,â Ye Qingyu thought for a moment, took out a piece of paper, and flicked it forward gently, âJiang Wang said this contains matters only you know, youâll understand once you see it.â
She also said, âFollow me to Yun Country, and I can ensure your safety.
Later, I will find an opportunity to place you quietly in a merchant fleet heading out to sea and send you discreetly to Qi Country.â
But Du Yehu did not even glance at the paper; he simply stated, âThis is a military camp, young lady, do not mislead yourself.
Leave quickly.â
The piece of paper hovered before him then slowly fell to the ground.
Jiang Wang didnât mention this kind of attitude from his brother.
Ye Qingyu was somewhat stunned but did not give up, switching tactics, âIs there anything else you are worried about?
Speak freely, we can solve any issue.â
âAre you leaving or not?â Du Yehu said coldly, âI see you are also someone entrusted by others, Iâd rather not bother with you.
Itâs best you donât force my hand.â
Ye Qingyu was a bit annoyed.
Given her status, who had ever dared to speak to her in such a manner?
She had kindly and politely come to help, but this fierce man not only showed no gratitude but even wanted to fight her?
Her voice too carried a hint of anger, âJiang Wang said, if you are unwilling, I must forcibly take you away.â
The original words from Jiang Wang were, if Du Yehu couldnât control himself and insisted on going to Xinâan City to fight to the death, he should be forcibly captured and taken away.
Back in Yun Country, he would be imprisoned for further discussions.
Now though Du Yehu hadnât set off to Xinâan City to fight to the death, picking a fight with me⌠well, itâs nearly the same, isnât it?
Upon hearing Ye Qingyuâs words,
Du Yehu flipped his mourning mace, and in a moment, his vital energy surged, taking the shape of a fierce tiger behind him.
âIâm afraid youâll be disappointed,â he had already fully assumed a battle stance, meeting Ye Qingyuâs gaze with eyes filled with killing intent, âYou probably canât accomplish that.â
This cultivation level, this combat power⌠it also wasnât as Jiang Wang described.
Jiang Wang, Jiang Wang, what am I to say about you?
This person is nothing like the one in your memories!
But Ye Qingyu wasnât frightened by him; her Yunzuanâs Divine Power had infinite ingenious uses, and she feared no one in single combat.
Moreover, if she didnât worry that making too much noise would cause too large of a disturbance, she could simply deploy hundreds of mechanical soldiers with a flick of her wrist!
But the problem lay in the word âdisturbance.â
This place was a military camp of the Xuanjia soldiers in Zhuang Country, a significant location.
If the noise escalated, there was really no easy way to settle itâŚ
âWhy wonât you listen to advice?â Ye Qingyu said in irritation.
âJiang Wang carries so much burden and lives in such hardships.
As his brother, canât you be more considerate?â
âEnough talk!â Du Yehu stepped up to the desk, holding the mourning mace with surging momentum, âJiang Wang is a shameless and ungrateful man, fatherless and disloyal to his country!
Having once sworn brotherhood with him is the biggest disgrace of my life!
Say another word, and I will summon the army to surround and kill you here!â
âFine, very good!â Ye Qingyu, now genuinely furious, held nothing back in her words, âWithout you as a burden, I feel relieved for Jiang Wang!
Just go on being a lackey of Zhuang Ting!
If someday we meet on the battlefield, just donât beg him for mercy!â
As her voice fell, her figure dissolved into a cloud and vanished from the tent.
Du Yehu flicked his finger lightly, breaking the concealing array Ye Qingyu had previously set up.
The evening breeze outside the tent whirled around the curtains.
She was far goneâŚ
Du Yehu restrained his aggressive energy, bent down, and picked up the piece of paper that had fallen to the ground.
That night, the lamp in General Duâs tent stayed lit until dawn.
