Chapter 5: Wumu Department - Yang Zai Xing
Several Demon Emperors, transformed into Spirits, still devoted themselves to protecting the Chinese people, demonstrating their deep connection to the Huaxia Ethnicity. If the Warrior within the Box was one of their former generals, then nothing could be taken from Lian Yun!
Even Sun Chendong had regained the demeanor of a prominent figure from a distinguished family! Yet, why did he look at the Warrior's spirit with such sorrowful eyes?
Liu Haitao's threats held no power! Lian Yun bowed respectfully to the spirit of the general and then asked, "I am Lian Yun. May I ask for your name, General?"
Upon hearing Lian Yun's name, the Warrior slightly furrowed his brow and glanced at Liu Haitao.
This made Liu Haitao hide behind Lin Feiyu once more.
However, there was no hatred in the Warrior's gaze, only an understanding. He then replied, "My name is Yang Zai Xing!"
"Oh my~~ Liu Boss, you really put in a lot of effort!" Lin Nan exclaimed, jumping up with an expression of disbelief directed at Liu Haitao.
Lin Feiyu also turned to Liu Haitao and shook his head helplessly, as if he had lost interest in their fate.
As for Sun Chendong, he slapped his face with one hand, already in despair.
Liu Haitao then said somewhat sadly, "I obtained him before General Yue even appeared!"
"Then you should have released General Yang earlier!" Despite Liu Haitao's wholehearted devotion to his cause, Lian Yun couldn't help but reproach him at that moment.
Why? Simply because Yang Zai Xing was a loyal subordinate of General Yue Fei.
Three years ago, during that disaster, Marshal Yue followed the Demon Army and immediately defected to the side of humanity.
At that time, the Demon Army was immensely powerful. If it weren't for Marshal Yue's assistance, even if Lian Yun managed to drive away the formidable Second-Rank Ghost Emperor, Cloud Emperor City would have faced immense suffering. It was inevitable that more than half of the population would perish.
Had Marshal Yue not defected and instead joined forces with the Demon Clan to besiege humanity, even if Lian Yun repelled the Second-Rank Ghost Emperor, there would have been no survivors in Cloud Emperor City.
Alternatively, if Marshal Yue had slaughtered all the humans in Cloud Emperor City, he could have turned around to assist the Second-Rank Ghost Emperor in dealing with Lian Yun.
The true goal of the Demon Clan's scheme back then was for Lian Yun and all of Cloud Emperor City to be wiped out without a trace!
If it weren't for Marshal Yue's help back then, Lian Yun would have faced certain death with no hope of burial.
Now that General Yue has returned, he is naturally adored by the entire Huaxia Ethnicity. However, General Yue did not join the Alliance High Command. Instead, after understanding history, he gathered like-minded individuals to form a new Yue Family Army.
He then traveled across Huaxia, seeking to recover his former subordinates who perished because of him and to assist cities and individuals in distress.
After the events of that year, although the three elders of the Lin family did not lead their clan away from the alliance, they distanced themselves from the Alliance High Command. The Lin Family's Three Generations and Lin Feiyu also became indifferent to participating in other organizations within the alliance and joined the Yue Family Army.
However, General Yue has not stopped his journey across the nation for three years. Yet some human members of the new Yue Family Army occasionally leave to return home, as was the case with Lin Feiyu.
Yang Zai Xing is a loyal general under General Yue. If Lian Yun were to sign a contract with him, it would mean that Lian Yun would be acting unjustly.
However, everyone knows that Liu Haitao is genuinely concerned for Lian Yun's well-being and has no intention of causing harm. This is why Lin Nan's gaze seemed quite peculiar.
"Forget it! I'll take General Yang to General Yue after tomorrow!" Lin Feiyu looked at Liu Haitao, shaking his head in helplessness.
He wanted to blame him but couldn't, as Liu was genuinely concerned for Lian Yun.
"General Yue?" Yang Zai Xing's eyes showed some confusion.
Lin Feiyu opened the Box and explained.
After hearing this, Yang Zai Xing's expression changed to one of eagerness. It took him a moment to regain his composure, and he nodded at Lian Yun, saying, "I've heard many heroic and righteous deeds about you from Liu. I thought you were quite similar to General Yue, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to follow you until I found General Yue. However, since General Yue is still alive, my only intention is to return! I truly apologize!"
"The general is being too modest; it's nothing else. General Yue is also Lian Yun's savior. How could I act ungratefully?"
Liu Haitao turned away, feeling gloomy, leaving others both amused and helpless.
"Ahem~~ What about this third one~~" Sun Chendong looked curiously at the last and largest Box.
The Box stood over four meters tall and was more than twice the width of a normal Box! It must contain something enormous!
Now, whether it was Hei or Yang Zai Xing, both were rare treasures sought by Monarchs; thus, this third item clearly promised something extraordinary.
As a result, Lin Feiyu and the others became curious as well.
"It wouldn't be a famous general's steed, would it?" Lin Nan suddenly suggested.
Although there are many animal spirits in the world, for some unknown reason, very few can become mounts for humans. Among them, warhorses are the most loyal yet also the rarest.
The Dog Spirit is powerful and exceptionally faithful, while General Yang Zai Xing is a skilled warrior known for his loyalty and righteousness. To Lin Nan, this last creature must also be incredibly loyal, with a high possibility of being a warhorse.
Looking at Liu Haitao's startled expression, everyone instantly understood!
It could be said that he had truly gone to great lengths for Lian Yun!
Lian Yun bowed in gratitude!
However, Liu Haitao repeatedly waved his hands and said, "This last creature is indeed a formidable mount, but it is not the general's warhorse. I prepared this because I believed Young Master Yun could rise again. Its temperament is fierce, with a wildness that is hard to tame. If Young Master Yun does not possess strength close to that of a Monarch, it will be difficult to subdue!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Feiyu and the others were not afraid; instead, their curiosity was piqued to the highest degree.
Lin Nan was the first unable to contain himself and rushed forward to grab a corner of the canvas.
However, a sword aura blocked his hand, and Lin Nan looked at Lian Yun in confusion.
Lian Yun shook his head and said, "It's better not to look, lest you have distracting thoughts!"
With Liu Haitao's warning in mind, Lian Yun realized that this last creature was likely not something easily sought after by a Monarch!
If he looked at it, Lian Yun could not guarantee that he would not be tempted. However, since he needed to possess strength close to that of a Monarch to tame it, it was something beyond what Lian Yun could obtain at present.
So Lian Yun pressed down his curiosity!
Seeing that Lian Yun had made a decision, Lin Nan felt regretful but obediently withdrew.
However, Liu Haitao and Sun Chendong were already stunned into silence.
"Sword~~ Sword~~ Sword~~~"
"Cheap, cheap, cheap~~ What do you mean, Dongzi? My brother is exceptional; is it strange for him to have achieved Sword Intent?" Lin Nan mocked, completely forgetting his own embarrassing reaction when he saw Lian Yun use Sword Intent.
"I knew it~~ Young Master Yun is definitely not someone ordinary~~" Liu Haitao exclaimed joyfully, unable to contain his excitement!
"Lian Yun will not disappoint Boss in this lifetime!" Lian Yun bowed again in gratitude!
"Mm! Boss Liu, I have a suggestion; please hear me out," Lin Feiyu said, suddenly adopting a serious demeanor, acknowledging the True Path.
The crowd was puzzled, but Liu Haitao nodded and said, "Please go ahead, Young Master Lin!"
