C1043 The Marshal's anger!
C1043 The Marshal's anger!
At the edge of the Dragon Lake.
A building that was vast and filled with surging military might and was connected with the Dragon Lake stood there, proud and peerless, fierce and overbearing.
This was the Qingzhou Water Army's camp after the The First Dynasty was established.
Marshal Wang Ze, the commander of the Qing Province's water army, was stationed here. He commanded a million strong army under his command. Lin Changhe was actually one of the eight generals under Wang Ze's command.
However, because of his different origins, Lin Changhe came from a Qing-Yun Sect and could be considered to be a local sect in the Azure Province. However, Wang Ze was from the Yellow River Sect in the Southern Region, so Lin Changhe could not be considered Wang Ze's trusted aide.
He understood Lin Changhe's past. Even though it was not detailed, he knew that Lin Changhe did not fare well before he awakened his heaven's destiny. If he did not Awaken Heaven's Mandate, Lin Changhe could at most be considered a little pawn.
Just four hours ago, Lin Changhe had brought over a dozen water soldiers to the Qing-Yun Sect, and a hundred thousand water soldiers under his command were also summoned by Lin Changhe afterwards. Wang Ze was very clear. He even knew what Lin Changhe wanted to do, it was no more than to show off the might of a water army general before the Qing-Yun Sect is dissolved.
Because of this, Wang Ze felt even more disdain towards Lin Changhe.
From Wang Ze's point of view, people could be arrogant, but they couldn't forget their roots.
Just like himself, before he awakened Heaven's Mandate, he was already an elder in the Yellow River Sect. The Yellow River Sect gave him great protection and nurturing, allowing him to reach the ninth level of the Divine Abilities before he awakened his Heaven's Mandate.
After the awakening of Heaven's Mandate, he turned into a man of Heaven's Mandate and understood what was going to happen. He became the marshal of the water army of Qingzhou and served under the million strong army that controlled the power of the long river in Qingzhou, becoming even more powerful and one of the few existences in the boundaries of Qingzhou.
Even the great clans in the Qingzhou Realm that were native to Immortal Cultivation Families could only look up to him.
Pride and arrogance was unavoidable, but no matter what it was, he would always be grateful to the Yellow River Sect. After the Yellow River Sect was forced to disband, he did his best to attract as many disciples as possible to join his army.
Firstly, he strengthened his power and position, and secondly, he reserved a future for his fellow sect members. Therefore, he became a big backer of the original Yellow River Sect.
They were looking for reasons to beat up their fellow sect members, and even tortured them inhumane. Now, they knew that it was impossible for the Qing-Yun Sect to be dissolved, and it was one thing for them to not help settle their fellow sect members, but they actually brought the troll army to flaunt their strength. This was simply too shameless.
However, it didn't matter if he didn't think much of it.
The reason was simple. He could not kick Lin Changhe out of his water army in order to arouse the displeasure of the imperial court, and thought that he wanted to turn the water army of Qing Zhou into another Yellow River sect. He would let Lin Changhe commit crimes as he pleased, but in reality, he was just allowing Lin Changhe to self-destruct.
As for the Qing-Yun Sect's bad luck, Wang Ze didn't care about it anymore. He couldn't even control the entire Yellow River Sect, how could he have the time to worry about the Qing-Yun Sect?
At most, they could just wait for Lin Changhe to return and teach him a lesson. They could also blame him for mobilizing the water army on his own, which could be considered as letting the group of unlucky bastards in the Qing-Yun Sect off the hook for good.
Just that, Lin Changhe had gone for four hours and he still had not returned. Wang Ze was slightly unhappy, it was fine that this fellow was showing off his strength, but after going for so long, it was not enough to be arrogant, it was just looking down on him, a marshal.
"Hmph, looks like This Field Marshal really needs to send that old fool Tang Hua a message."
Wang Ze sat in the camp, squinting his eyes, his fingers tapping on the table as a trace of killing intent flashed across his eyes.
The entire Qing-Yun Sect was located within the boundaries of the Cyan Plains. Tang Hua was initially just a small clan leader of a small clan within the boundaries of the Cyan Plains. But who knew what kind of dog shit luck this fellow had, he was able to awaken Heaven's Mandate, and he was able to obtain a mid-tier King's Medallion in one go, and was directly appointed as the Duke of the Azure Province by the The First Dynasty.
He was only able to turn the situation around.
It was just that this fellow was relying on the fact that he was a native of Qingzhou, yet he was actually against him, the Water Marshal of the Southern Ocean Army, who was born in both open and dark, and actually tried to rope Lin Changhe in. He wanted to take Lin Changhe as his son-in-law?
If it wasn't for the old man who secretly supported Lin Changhe and gave him some dog guts, he wouldn't dare to provoke Wang Ze's dignity.
Wang Ze pondered on what kind of words he should use to express his displeasure to that old fool Tang Hua, reminding him not to go overboard and to be careful of provoking himself. In his fury, his future son-in-law would be doomed.
"Report —" A guard hurriedly entered the camp.
"What is it?" Wang Ze lifted his eyelids lazily.
"Reporting to the Marshal, Huangfu Wuwei wishes to seek an audience. He said that he has something important to report to the Marshal."
"Huangfu Wuwei?"
Wang Ze was surprised.
He knew about Huangfu Wuwei.
He was born in the Huangfu Family and was the outer sect master of Qing-Yun Sect in name. When the Heaven's Mandate era arrived, this person was also someone who had awakened Heaven's Mandate. However, because the current dynasty was wary of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Wuwei was not able to join the The First Dynasty to take on the official position.
This person's luck was quite bad. It was one thing for him to be unable to become an official. Even though he wasn't a direct descendant of the Huangfu Family, he still wasn't highly regarded by the Huangfu Family. The only card in his hand, the outer sect of Qing-Yun Sect, couldn't be protected either, and this caused him to be in an exceptionally sorry state.
In conclusion, this person was someone who had neither luck nor tricks.
It was also because of this that, after Wang Ze took over the command of the Qing Province Water Army, he tried to rope in a lot of local Heaven's Mandate but did not think to rope Huangfu Wuwei in.
And now, Huangfu Wuwei actually took the initiative to come to him and report what had happened. What was he trying to do, take the initiative to rely on him?
It wasn't impossible for him to think about it.
In the Immortal Cultivation World of the two prefectures, the Huangfu clan's roots were deep. Even if Tang Hua, this old man, were to turn the tables, he would still try to curry favor with the Huangfu Family. Tang Hua, this old man, dared to push him aside because he was under the protection of the Huangfu Family.
It could be said that the Huangfu Family was the one that was blocking Wang Ze's further development in the Azure Province. As a branch of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Wuwei was not very ambitious, but at least he had the support of a branch. If he could rope Huangfu Wuwei into their family and make him a thorn in the side, it would probably have a miraculous effect.
Of course, he could think of it, but he had to wait a bit. He had to first come into contact with Huangfu Wuwei and see what abilities he had.
After quickly calculating, Wang Ze immediately ordered his men to bring Huangfu Wuwei to the camp.
"My name is Huangfu Wuwei, and I pay my respects to Marshal Wang."
Huangfu Wuwei hurriedly entered, and the moment he saw Wang Ze, he immediately paid his respects, but Wang Ze ignored him, and only looked at him indifferently, then concentrated on reading a book in his hands, as though he was very busy.
Huangfu Wuwei's heart went cold, and just as he was about to directly report it, his words got stuck in his throat.
Huangfu Wuwei also had some understanding of this Marshal Wang before him. He knew he held great power and influence in the Azure Province, but it did not go his way. Especially when the Huangfu clan's secret suppression made the other party feel even worse.
Since he was born in the Huangfu clan, he definitely wasn't favored by the other party. Now that the other party was clearly trying to make things difficult for him, he could only bear it.
He waited.
An hour passed.
Wang Ze's heart was already filled with anxiety. Only then did he put down the ancient book in his hands.
"Ya, isn't this Sect Head Huangfu? What wind blew you over here today? Look at all this! Look at this place! It's quite simple and crude as well! Wait a bit longer!"
When Huangfu Wuwei heard Wang Ze's hypocritical words, he scolded Wang Ze in his heart, but he did not dare show dissatisfaction on his face. "Marshal Wang, the dissolution of the outer sect of Qing-Yun Sect is already a foregone conclusion.
Wang Ze immediately frowned upon hearing this.
This Huangfu Wuwei doesn't have any sense of responsibility. He clearly still carries the title of the Qing-Yun Sect's outer sect master, yet when he opened his mouth, he was anxious to cut off his relationship with the Qing-Yun Sect, afraid of igniting a fire in him. How could such a person be of much use?
Wang Ze's thoughts of bribing Huangfu Wuwei had already lightened up, and his tone had also lightened up, "Oh, is that so, I wonder what kind of advice Brother Huangfu has today?"
Huangfu Wuwei quickly waved his hand, "Marshal speaks too seriously, how could I dare to lecture you? I have come today to report an important matter. Just as General Lin Changhe was leading the water army towards the Qing-Yun Sect, there was a conflict with the original Qing-Yun Sect disciple, Su Ye, who was suppressed by Su Ye in public.
"What kind of thing? Why didn't you say that earlier?" Hearing that, Wang Ze was so shocked that he stood up, and angrily slapped the table with his palm, a surging power immediately filled the camp, causing Huangfu Wuwei's heart to beat faster.
Wang Ze's eyes were blazing with fire, he really wanted to kill this idiot Huangfu Wuwei with a slap. Since he had brought such an important piece of news, he was still holding it in until now. Not only was this fellow unable to take responsibility, he couldn't even be considered to be in charge of the most important things. No wonder he was able to behave in such a miserable manner in this era.
Wang Ze had completely given up on trying to win Huangfu Wuwei over. He was not afraid of god-like opponents. He was only afraid of pig-like teammates. It would do him no good at all to win him over, and instead, he would miss out on something big.
Wang Ze glared at Huangfu Wuwei angrily, he rushed out and prepared to head to Qing-Yun Sect. No matter how much he hated Lin Changhe, in name, Lin Changhe was still a water army general under his command.
But just as he was about to take action, he retracted his footsteps and turned his gaze towards Huangfu Wuwei, "Wait, who is the Su Ye that you are talking about?
