>"Now that you bring these corpses to me, do you think you can threaten this Lord?"
Jiang Yun said faintly, "I wouldn't dare to threaten you. I'm just worried that Lord Lu wouldn't believe the words of a small military officer like me, so I brought these corpses here to show you."
"I think that these two hundred plus corpses should be more convincing to Lord Lu than a personal edict from the Heavenly Official, don't you think?"
Lu Zhu remained silent for a long while, then stared fixedly at Jiang Yun with cold eyes and let out a chilling smile: "Fan, even if you killed all the guards in Area Thirty-Three and brought their bodies here, without Tian Shuai's personal decree, don't even think about leaving with anyone!"
Ginger Cloud stared at Lu Zhuo, suddenly smiled and said, "Lu Sir, do you know which military regulations these guards have violated?"
Before Lü Zhu could even answer, Jiāng Yún had already said to herself, "You haven't reported for duty yet, you are disobeying orders by going against them!"
The first two were death sentences, while the last one was fifty lashes.
"Lord Lu, I have come with the celestial marshal's decree to request people from you. Yet, you make countless difficulties and refuse to obey, clearly not regarding the celestial marshal in your eyes!"
"In that case, Fan, I shall punish you for treason against Heaven's Mandate!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a whip materialized in Jiang Yun's hand, formed from condensed spiritual energy. He didn't hesitate for a moment and lashed out at Lu Zhuo with all his might.
Jiang Yun's sudden move once again shocked everyone.
Lu Zhuo is a celestial general of the third heaven, while Jiang Yun is only a deputy general within the first heaven. However, Jiang Yun actually dared to attack Lu Zhuo.
Although Lu Zhu didn't expect Jiang Yun to dare to attack him, he was slightly stunned when Jiang Yun's whip came flying.
But when the whip was about to strike him, he reacted and quickly dodged out of the way.
"Bang!"
The whip cracked through the air, sending a sharp, snapping sound.
"Be bold, be bold!"
Lu Zhu pointed at Jiang Yun, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Fan Xiao, you dare to defy me! Quickly take him down and execute him!"
"Kill me?" Jiang Yun sneered, his gaze sweeping over the guards around him. "I advise you not to act rashly."
Today, Fan Mo has already killed a great number of people. He is not satisfied yet and doesn't mind adding dozens more coffins here.
Jiang Yun's words made Lu Zhu and his men freeze in their tracks.
Gingeryun looked at Lu Zhu again and said, "Lu Zhu, on the day of the military competition, Lord Yan did say that I have ambition and strength."
"Even if I'm not his opponent, I'm fully qualified to challenge other Celestial Generals and become one myself, rather than just a small-time Deputy General!"
"Thanks to Lord Yan's good words, perhaps his words will come true today!"
"Bang!"
Jiang Yun's hair and clothes suddenly fluttered without wind. His body, having experienced ninety-nine cycles of reincarnation, had at this moment become one with his true self. This caused an immense and terrifying aura to emanate from him.
Feeling that powerful aura, as if it were heavenly might, enveloping him and leaving his body unable to move, Lu Zhu's expression changed instantly.
Never would have thought, Jiang Yun's strength, it turned out to be so powerful, even surpassing himself.
Especially Jiang Yun's last words, even more so, a thought arose in his heart.
"Could this be a setup? Maybe he's being directed by Yan Tianqi, with Leng Yichen backing him up in the shadows. He's deliberately challenging me, trying to take my place as the Triple Heaven General!"
"Yan Tianqi must know his true abilities, so he deliberately asked me not to help him. The reason is to give him a reason to attack me."
Otherwise, how could he have the guts to act so boldly, to attack me in front of so many people, defying authority?
With this idea surfacing, coupled with Ginger Cloud's whip rising once again in her hand, Lu Zhu suddenly shouted out: "Lord Fan, please hold your hands!"
Jiang Yun's whip was frozen in mid-air, his gaze cold and fixed on Lu Zhuo.
Lu Zhu hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to Jiang Yun, saying: "Lord Fan is newly appointed, I was just joking with the Lord, wanting to make friends."
I didn't expect this joke to go too far and anger Master Fan.
"Come here, pass down the order, immediately bring those guards that Master Fan requested to him and let Master Fan take them away."
All of Lu Zhuo's men immediately turned and left, not daring to be disrespectful any longer. Lu Zhuo then continued, "Lord Fan, as a heavenly general, how could I not know that within Heaven's domain, military law is strictly enforced?"
Even if I had the guts of a thousand men, I wouldn't dare disobey military regulations or General Tianshuai's orders! Please calm down, please!
Ginger Cloud slowly put down the whip in her hand, stared at Lu Zhu for a few moments, and her expression softened. "Lu sir, I've always been serious."
"In the future, it's best to avoid making this kind of joke!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lu Zhu nodded repeatedly, a smile plastered on his face. "I won't joke with Lord Fan anymore from now on."
A moment later, six guards, including Shen Zhaozhi, were all excitedly led before Jiang Yun.
They had just learned that Ginger Cloud had been promoted to a Major General and would be transferred to his side.
And every elder in their families greeted them, asking them to get along with Jiang Yun as much as possible, so they were naturally very willing.
However, when they saw the coffins all over the ground and Lu Zhu smiling beside Jiang Yun, they were all stunned.
Seeing them, Jiang Yun didn't bother explaining. He bowed to Lu Zhu and said: "Since they have arrived, I still need to rush to other heavenly generals. That being the case, Lu sir, I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell!"
After finishing, Jiang Yun winked at Liu Meng, who was very understanding and packed up all the coffins. He then followed Jiang Yun with Shen Chaojun and others, leaving Lu Zhuo's Heavenly General Mansion in a swaggering manner.
Until Gingercloud's figure disappeared, one of Lu Zhuo's confidantes approached and said, "My lord, should we immediately inform the other Heavenly Generals and have them prepare?"
Lu Zhu raised his hand and slapped the man hard, sending him flying. He snarled, "Who do you think you are to tell me what to do?!"
