Chapter 087 Commentary Eight Directions
"Aren't you good at calculations? Calculate it," Yang Chen said playfully as he looked at Tian Ci.
Tian Ci quickly began to calculate with his fingers, and after a moment, he said, "Indeed, Young Master, the Qixing Sect and Tian You Sect have already gone to war. However, the celestial signs indicate a situation of 'the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.'"
Yang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Do everything you can to inform the elders in your sect to relocate and leave the Southern Territory. Otherwise, it will lead to the destruction of your sect."
"Why?" Tian Ci asked.
"The two sects are working together, benefiting the dynasty. Would they allow your Meteorological Sect to remain an uncertain neutral factor?" Yang Chen explained.
"Isn't there still the Divine Heir's family holding them back?" Tian Ci asked again. Yang Chen pointed at Long Xin and the others and said, "Look at them. Will the Divine Heir still be in the Western Frontier? They might be right above us in this sky. If your sect has nowhere to go, let them go to Loulan City. Remember, if they go to Loulan City, do not act recklessly!"
"Yes, Young Master," Tian Ci replied. After saying that, he shot a beam of white light from his hand towards a star in a certain star domain. Half an hour later, Tian Ci sat down drenched in sweat and began to regulate his fighting energy.
"Tian Ci, are you alright?" Yang Chen asked. "I'm fine; it's just that I've expended too much fighting energy. I'm feeling a bit weak," Tian Ci explained.
He drew upon the remaining life essence from his brow, which gradually carved out a Hexagram. Of course, Yang Chen did not let anyone see it.
"What powerful essence! Thank you, Young Master," Tian Ci exclaimed.
"Take your time to recover," Yang Chen said as he stopped supplying life essence.
"Young Master, what do you think is Brother Chi Long's true intention?" Xie Yao asked.
"What about the current Chi Long? Ha ha, I really look forward to the day when father and son turn against each other," Yang Chen said arrogantly.
“Young Master, if Crimson Dragon is Fan Ying Tian's son, then his union with Silver Moon would be quite something, wouldn't it?” Li Qi said with a mischievous smile.
“Perhaps... you are overthinking it,” Yang Chen replied, looking towards Silvermoon City. “Crimson Dragon, this favor is owed because of you, so after this is done, you will owe me, while I owe you nothing.”
“Young Master, what are you saying? Who are we really helping now? Duke of National Defense Red Tianba or Jia Shi Emperor?” Xie Yao asked.
“We will not assist either side; we will watch as the two tigers fight each other. We are helping Crimson Dragon,” Yang Chen said meaningfully.
“Helping Crimson Dragon? With the current situation, I really don't understand,” Zhao Yu said. “Perhaps Li Mu and Eagle Tianyi can see something.”
“That’s why you can only be a Camp Leader, not a military Captain,” Yang Chen pointed out. “A commander must possess both courage and wisdom. You have plenty of bravery, but not enough wisdom.”
“Thank you for your comments, Young Master,” Zhao Yu said humbly.
“Since we’re being open today, let me say more. Zhang Tian, you are exceptionally brave and truly a rare general, but you lack experience in commanding troops. You can only be a vanguard, not a commander.”
“Thank you for your comments, Young Master,” Zhang Tian said humbly.
“Li Qi, you are a rare good general. You have both courage and strategy; I have more faith in you than in your brother Li Mu. However, what you lack is something called experience; you are not ruthless enough. You lack the cunning of a strategist and the ferocity of the Killer God! Train hard, and in the future, I will entrust the command of Not Falling the Imperial Flag to you to conquer the Heavenly Continent!”
“Yes, Young Master,” Li Qi replied calmly. Perhaps it was from this day that the future Grand Marshal of All Armies truly began to grow.
“Xie Yao. Being a woman, your nature is gentle. As an Assassin, you are not cunning enough or ruthless enough. When we reach Ancient Moon City, I will train all of you well.”
“Thank you, Young Master,” Xie Yao said.
“Zhan Tao. You are perfect, or rather your lineage is perfect; your father is also perfect, so it follows that you are perfect as well. However, you lack ambition—a kind of ambition befitting a tyrant. If you were to inherit the throne now, life for the people of the Earth Continent would improve greatly, but you would never seek to conquer other continents. Am I right?” Yang Chen said.
"Indeed, I have never had the intention to conquer other continents," Zhan Tao admitted.
"You would make a good emperor, not a tyrant," Yang Chen commented.
"Thank you, Young Master."
"The rest of you, I haven't spent much time with you, and our interactions have been limited, but one thing I can be sure of is that you are definitely not bad," Yang Chen said.
"Thank you, Young Master," the eleven responded in unison.
"Young Master, I am almost recovered," Heavenly Gift stood up and said.
"Good, then let's get moving. We need to earn military achievements early and develop our own power. This way, we can assist the Crimson Dragon in the Military," Yang Chen suggested.
"Alright." With that, the thirteen set off under the blazing sun.
Three days later, they finally arrived at a city in ruins. Corpses littered the ground outside the city, and broken soldiers and shattered weapons were everywhere. Yang Chen stepped forward slowly and said solemnly, "In this world, all creatures come for profit. Alas, in the end, they only serve those in power."
"Young Master," Heavenly Gift said.
Yang Chen nodded in understanding and said, "Alright, let's enter the city."
"Yes, Young Master."
As the thirteen approached the gates of Ancient Moon City, someone on the wall shouted, "Who goes there?" Yang Chen looked up and saw over a hundred Sky-Piercing Bows aimed at him and his companions.
"I am here on the orders of Duke of National Defense Red Tianba to defend Ancient Moon City. Here is my appointment letter; please pass it to Lord Xiao Wentian," Yang Chen threw a letter from the Demon God Ring into the air towards the city gate.
“Captain, be careful.” Seeing his subordinate about to draw the bow, he quickly shouted, “Wait. The people below are from Crimson Dragon Lord’s Crimson Tooth Puppet Corps.” After saying this, the letter that Yang Chen had handed over also flew into the Captain’s hands. After verifying its authenticity through a special method, he respectfully said, “Please wait a moment, my lord.” He then swiftly retreated from the area.
“Hey, Young Master, are we becoming lords now?” Thunderous Movement teased.
“Thunderous Movement, don’t go too far,” Long Xin admonished. Yang Chen frowned but did not say anything.
“Dragon Sister, I just can’t stand people pointing weapons at me,” Thunderous Movement complained.
Before Long Xin could respond, Yang Chen shouted angrily, “Can’t stand it? In this vast world, there are countless people stronger than you. It’s just a mere Duel King. Stop complaining and blaming others. Let me tell you, you don’t have any qualifications right now. Think carefully about what you can do without your family’s protection! Everyone think about it properly.” After Yang Chen finished speaking, the six others, except for Zhan Tao, fell silent, even the previously loud Thunderous Movement became quiet and reflective.
After a moment, the city gates opened wide, and the Captain who had questioned them earlier walked out from within the city and said, “Brother Yang, please.”
Yang Chen nodded and noticed that his official title was also Hundred Captain. He inquired, “Thank you for your trouble. May I ask how to address you?”
“I am Lika.”
“Brother Li, please,” Yang Chen replied.
“Brother Yang, I will take you to meet the Thousand Household Lord,” Lika said.
“Thank you for your trouble.” Following this, Yang Chen and the others entered Ancient Moon City under Lika’s guidance.
