Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Fat Chapter—Lord Wildly Slaps Faces, Begs for First Subscription (29)

She looked at Deputy General Xiong and asked, ”During this period, has anything unusual happened?”

Perhaps intimidated by Mu Qingge earlier, Deputy General Xiong carefully thought for a moment before answering earnestly, ”No, nothing.”

Everything as usual? Then where did grandfather go?

A trace of anxiety flashed through Mu Qingge’s heart.

She pressed her lips together, looked up at Deputy General Xiong, and coldly said, ”Follow me.”

With that, she turned and walked out of the tent.

As she passed by the other deputy generals, her gaze swept over them and landed on the food on the round table. Immediately, it caused the faces of the well-experienced generals to blush in embarrassment.

Withdrawing her gaze casually, Mu Qingge said to them, ”You follow too.”

Then, with a swift movement, she left the main tent.

Soon, behind her, Deputy General Xiong led the other deputies out of the main tent.

However, when they saw the scene before them, their eyes widened in disbelief, nearly biting their tongues off in shock.

In front of them, encircled by five hundred men in black clothes, nearly ten thousand people were bound in a special posture, sitting on the ground with their knees bent, with a white cloth stuffed in their mouths. Each was disheveled, with scattered hair. Their eyes were filled with a strong sense of unwillingness, yet helplessness.

It seemed they were feeling both wronged by their loss and stunned by this unseen combat method, leaving them speechless.

When those five hundred men saw Mo Yang coming out with the commanding flag, they instinctively straightened their backs, with fervent light in their eyes.

”How... how is this possible?” Deputy General Xiong was so shocked that his voice trembled.

”There’s nothing impossible,” Mu Qingge calmly said with her hands behind her back, ”From the start, your men underestimated mine. They assumed that the battle would at least wait until dawn, so they all went to rest early, expecting the morning. But my men took this battle very seriously right from the beginning. At the stroke of midnight, the agreed time had arrived. They split into groups, infiltrated the camp, and subdued the others in their sleep. What’s difficult about that?”

She was calm, as if everything before her was ordinary, expected.

But for Deputy General Xiong and the nearly ten thousand soldiers who heard her, they couldn’t help but feel bitterness in their hearts.

What’s difficult? It’s exceedingly difficult, isn’t it?

Yes, infiltrating isn’t hard, and subduing them while asleep isn’t hard either. The difficult part is ensuring that in the process of subduing these ten thousand people, not a single person is awakened. Or rather, doing so without causing a commotion that would lead to the plan’s failure.

”Mmm mmm mmm...”

In the circle of captives nearby, someone struggled, trying to rise.

Mu Qingge’s gaze swept over him, and immediately someone stepped forward to untie him and remove the white cloth from his mouth.

”I object! This is taking advantage of us, it’s completely unfair!” Once free, the man shouted indignantly.

His words seemed to resonate with many soldiers. Those unable to speak could only express their support through their eyes.

Not only the soldiers but also the deputy generals led by Deputy General Xiong fell silent, appearing to share a sense of dissatisfaction with the outcome of this contest.

”Object?” Mu Qingge’s lips curled into an extremely dangerous smile, her eyes like ice as she looked at him and said, ”You call this taking advantage, I call it using deception in warfare. You say it’s unfair, yet having five hundred against your nearly ten thousand is what you consider fair?!”

Her last two words were shouted fiercely, causing the entire army to tremble.

She raised her chin and proudly said, ”What fairness do you want? Is there fairness on the battlefield? If your adversary’s cultivation level is higher than yours, should you call a time-out in the contest, wait for him to pause while you cultivate to the same level, and then duel him? Or if his weapon is sharper than yours, should you demand righteously that he discard it and fight you barehanded? If so, what’s the point in battle? Why not set up an arena for your fair duels? You now talk to me about fairness, I see you as nothing but a group of sore losers!”

”We are not!” the soldier retorted.

”Then what are you?” Mu Qingge’s sharp gaze left him speechless on the spot.

Mu Qingge no longer looked at him but turned her attention to the silent deputy generals, her exquisitely beautiful features like blades. She said calmly, ”I believe, on the battlefield, you must use all means possible. There is no morality on the battlefield. The only question is how to use the resources at hand to achieve victory while preserving the lives of my soldiers. If I have a way to win without losing any troops, why abandon it for so-called fairness, which is a mere illusion? Or is it that if we lose, only then it would be fair and the expected result for you? If even you think so, then what are you if not sore losers? Deputy General Xiong, report to me the outcome of this contest.”

She looked toward Deputy General Xiong, the highest authority present.

Mortified, Deputy General Xiong nodded. It was undeniable that he was also resentful. However, that unwillingness in his heart was directly awakened by Mu Qingge’s sharp words.

On the battlefield, what is fair? Whoever wins is fair.

Shamefully, he lowered his head, clasped his fist, and admitted through gritted teeth, ”This time, the young lord won. We lost!” It was too difficult to utter the word ’lost,’ especially from the mouth of the Mu Family Army. However, they could not refute it.

Upon calming down, they realized the fearsome nature of Mu Qingge.

To be able to train ordinary soldiers to this level within three months, to move in and out of an army of ten thousand as though unencumbered, had already been chilling. And if experts were to accompany them, taking the heads of a few of them would be... as easy as flipping a hand?

Considering this, Deputy General Xiong and others felt a chill at the back of their necks, with a cold shiver running down their spines.

”Mo Yang.” After reprimanding nearly ten thousand to quail like quails, Mu Qingge directly called to Mo Yang, ”Come with me back to the Mu Mansion.” Then, she instructed the five hundred men, ”Return to the camp immediately, gather your equipment, and wait for my orders back at the main camp.”

The five hundred men responded in unison.

This military discipline once again left Deputy General Xiong and the others wide-eyed and speechless.

When he came to his senses, he noticed that the young lord was looking at him, and he quickly hid his astonishment and nodded slightly.

”Deputy General Xiong, I’m going back to find out where my grandfather went. You remain in the camp, reorganize the army, watch the surrounding situation, and await my commands,” Mu Qingge instructed in a deep voice.

”Yes.” Deputy General Xiong was already worried about Mu Xiong’s whereabouts. At this moment, hearing Mu Qingge’s words, he also sensed the unusualness in them. He did not oppose but followed Mu Qingge’s instructions.

After arranging everything, Mu Qingge left You He and Hua Yue in the Mu Family Army camp, took Mo Yang, changed out of the Night Clothes, and rode swiftly towards Luodu...
