Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2830: Chapter 2831: Demon-Suppressing Great General

At this time, quite a few cultivators gathered around.

”Pay respects to the Great General!”

These people all saluted the young man.

In fact, before this, Ye Luo had already roughly understood the situation in the Royal Capital, especially the circle of nobility. After all, Ye Luo would have to interact with them in the future, so understanding the basics was essential.

This person was probably the one who had recently been promoted to Great General, a true general who emerged from the piles of the dead. At the age of twelve, he followed his father to battle against the Demon Race, not having returned to the Royal Capital for decades, stubbornly climbing from an unknown soldier to the position of General!

When his father was ambushed and killed by the Demon Race, only then did people realize he was the son of a general! King of Huainan personally conferred him as Great General and he enjoys hereditary privileges.

Upon learning of his exploits, Ye Luo felt deeply moved. He was a true warrior, even though a bit arrogant, yet far stronger than the true villains.

”So it’s the Demon-Overthrowing Great General, I’ve heard so much about you!” Ye Luo quickly said with a smile.

Upon assuming the position of Great General, he gave himself the title of Demon-Overthrowing Great General and vowed to overturn the Demon Race with all his might, otherwise he would not rest in peace! Indeed, he caused considerable trouble for the Demon Race.

Currently, he controls thirty thousand elite soldiers, all of whom were left behind by his father and are absolutely loyal to him. Thus, in the Royal Capital, he counts as a Great General with real power, as those who possess their own armies are few in number.

”You sure know how to flatter. However, people like you contribute nothing to the Third Force and instead enjoy the best treatment, like this tea - what right do you have to drink it? The soldiers behind me are fighting against the Demon Race day and night, ensuring peace for the Third Force, yet they have never tasted such tea!” The Great General said coldly.

Ye Luo understood his sentiments. Back when he led troops, he had the same thoughts.

Thus, he not only had no resentment towards this Great General but admired him even more.

It’s important to know that the Demon Realm is unlike other realms. Take the Third Force, for instance; it’s not truly a nation. Even if these soldiers battle the Demon Race, other races won’t appreciate them. Should the chance arise, they might even attack these soldiers. This is what grieves those who lead troops most.

As he said this, people around sneered at Ye Luo, clearly understanding what kind of person the Great General was.

If you dare to resist, he will be relentless, even resorting to violent confrontation in Mingxi Pavilion!

However, King of Huainan values this Great General greatly; in fact, there was an incident where a prince of the King of Huainan offended this Great General, resulting in a conflict between the two, and King of Huainan severely punished the prince! There’s even a claim that King of Huainan directly sentenced the prince to death!

Of course, most cultivators don’t believe the latter, as after all, he was a descendant of the King of Huainan, a prince - how could he be killed? Even a tiger doesn’t eat its cubs, let alone a person.

Yet, Ye Luo felt the latter was more plausible, considering King of Huainan wasn’t an ordinary person, much less an ordinary tiger. He was countless times more terrifying! He could indeed undertake such actions.

Moreover, he always advocated that noble crimes should be punished equally as cultivator crimes, and if so, he must set an example, otherwise, how could he lead the populace? Otherwise, how could tens of thousands of troops and numerous generals submit to him?

As people watched the spectacle, expecting Ye Luo to lose his temper, Ye Luo suddenly chuckled lightly.

”The Great General is right! I feel truly ashamed to drink this tea. I’ve done nothing for the Third Force, yet these commanders can indeed be considered the guardians of the Third Force!” Ye Luo nodded in agreement.

This slightly shocked the Great General.

Before, facing nobles, upon his insults, none failed to retort, leaving him prepared to show them a lesson if they resisted.

Everyone knew King of Huainan valued him, yet few knew that if he were to persist stubbornly, he’d ignore even King of Huainan’s prestige.

Even if this Royal Teacher was appointed personally by King of Huainan, he’d be determined to make him look bad.

Just as he regained composure, Ye Luo suddenly extended his hand, releasing a fragrant aroma.

”By chance, I have some tea as well. Would you mind brewing a cup for these soldiers?”

Ye Luo instructed some surrounding female attendants.

The attendants immediately approached, took the tea leaves, and walked away.

The Great General could insult Ye Luo, but these attendants knew full well that this Royal Teacher’s status was extraordinary.

Soon, they served several cups of steaming tea.

These cups contained much more Spiritual Energy and Dao Tempo; they weren’t ordinary tea leaves but gifts from Xin Lan, processed from exotic fruits, greatly benefiting Ye Luo’s realm.

Though Ye Luo never consumed it, feeling that taking shortcuts isn’t conducive to cultivation. Even with great opportunities come risks, whereas this bore none. It might show its drawbacks at higher realms later.

After all, Xin Lan wasn’t from the Immortal Realm; her studies reached the limits of the Martial Emperor Realm, but what happens at higher realms? She had no concept of it.

However, this tea surely tempted these generals, as a minor increase in strength markedly improves their survival odds on the battlefield.

Yet, the Great General’s demeanor clearly suggested refusal.

”Rest assured, I offer these tea cups without any ulterior motives. You can surely feel that this tea has no drawbacks. Enhancing their strength will surely benefit the entire army!” Ye Luo stated earnestly.

The Great General furrowed his brow, pondering for a moment before nodding slowly.

Immediately, the generals took the tea and drank it leisurely.

It was evident this Great General was not a prolific conversationalist; he could rant relentlessly during his verbal assault against Ye Luo, yet now with Ye Luo’s goodwill, he was left speechless.
