The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

Chapter 569: An Old Enemy (2)

The few guards let out a sigh of relief on seeing Ji Fengyan. The Green Nightmare Army’s rudeness incensed them.

“What nonsense are you talking about? This is…”

Just as the men were about to say out Ji Fengyan’s name, she raised her hand to stop them. She then strolled leisurely before the Green Nightmare Army.

“What did you just say? Say it one more time.” Ji Fengyan grinned at that impertinent leader.

The Green Nightmare Army leader sized up Ji Fengyan and sneered. “What did I say? Please don’t misunderstand me, miss. I just felt that the army camp is an important area—we shouldn’t allow just anyone to come and go as they please. Or could it be that there are some lonely soldiers here who are up to some tricks?”

The leader’s words were vague but still hinted that Ji Fengyan’s presence was something out of the ordinary.

A base and sleazy presence meant solely to dispel the loneliness of certain soldiers in the camp…

Those words outraged the men standing by Ji Fengyan. Linghe and gang nearly charged forward in attack.

Lu Shaoqing’s face also darkened. He had long heard rumors of the Green Nightmare Army using their status to bully others. But he never expected their behavior to be so outrageous.

“You should think before speaking. This is the Moonset Valley and not the territory of your Green Nightmare Army. This is not somewhere you can do or say whatever you want.” Lu Shaoqing warned in a frosty tone.

The leader of the Green Nightmare Army looked at Lu Shaoqing’s uniform and military ranking, but didn’t tone down his manner. He just asked blandly, “Who are you?”

Lu Shaoqing inclined his head with a slight smile. “I am Lu Shaoqing, the military advisor of this army.”

“Oh… just a dumb military advisor. And I had thought you were a big deal.” The Green Nightmare Army leader sneered.

Everyone knew the awkward status of a military advisor. Highly valuable alongside a powerful general, they were a useless position among the common soldiers. As a result, the Green Nightmare Army completely disregarded Lu Shaoqing.

Having not been able to realize his potential for many years, Lu Shaoqing’s face soured at their mocking.

“Where’s your General? We rushed over from afar to answer your call for help—why hasn’t your General come out to greet us?” The Green Nightmare Army had no interest in talking to Lu Shaoqing.

Everyone knew the Moonset Valley was a dumping ground. Their new General was probably someone of little standing.

“You want to meet the General?” Ji Fengyan suddenly spoke up.

“Of course.” The Green Nightmare Army nodded.

Ji Fengyan smiled. “Very well. I will fulfill your wish.”

Before the Green Nightmare Army could understand what this random teenage girl was about, Ji Fengyan shouted, “Men, arrest them all!”

Ji Fengyan’s order had everyone stunned. Lu Shaoqing and his soldiers were also dumbstruck and remained moving.

Only Linghe and gang immediately charged toward the Green Nightmare Army at Ji Fengyan’s orders!

“What are you doing! Are you trying to rebel!” The Green Nightmare Army was in a panic as Linghe and the rest pounced at them, easily subduing their leader. The rest of the Green Nightmare Army dared not make any sudden moves.
