However, in the eyes of someone like Ling Tiehan, there was obviously no such thing as erasing grudges. Once the favor was repaid, it was time to collect the debt. At this moment, Lei Tengfeng couldn't help but wonder if his father and he had made a mistake in asking Ling Tiehan to deal with Ye Li.
After bidding farewell to Ling Tiehan, Lei Tengfeng rushed back to the Xiling army without stopping. Lei Zhenting saw his defeated expression and couldn't help but sigh. Without waiting for Lei Tengfeng to speak, he asked, "Ling Tiehan failed?"
Lei Tengfeng nodded, "Father …"
"Ling Tiehan deliberately let Ye Li go?" Lei Zhenting asked with an ugly expression. Although he had considered this possibility when he went to find Ling Tiehan, Ling Tiehan had always been a man of his words and there really wasn't a more suitable candidate than him. He could only choose to believe in Ling Tiehan. Lei Tengfeng said with some uncertainty, "Ling Tiehan was also injured. It was the missing number one master of Da Chu State, Ling Tiehan, who blocked Ling Tiehan. The two fought fiercely for an entire night. By the time the victor was decided at dawn, Ye Li and the others had already entered the area controlled by the Prince Ding Mansion. " He didn't know whether Ling Tiehan had gone easy on them or not, but at least Ling Tiehan wasn't that enthusiastic about killing Ye Li.
"Mu Qingcang?" Lei Zhenting frowned, "Ridiculous. Ye Li had just destroyed the House of Marquis Muyang. Why would Mu Qingcang save her?"
Lei Tengfeng said, "I sent someone to investigate. The one who suddenly appeared to block Ling Tiehan's sword was indeed Mu Qingcang. After the two fought, Mu Qingcang was seriously injured and took away an old man from the Prince Ding Mansion. According to my subordinate's report, it was very likely the old Marquis Muyang, Mu Jingmin. Originally … Ling Tiehan almost killed Ye Li. "At this point, Lei Tengfeng also felt a little regretful. Although he admired Ye Li's ability and intelligence, they were still enemies. How could Lei Tengfeng not secretly grieving after losing an opportunity to get rid of such a powerful enemy?
Lei Zhenting shook his head, "God's will. As long as Mo Xiuyao really couldn't make it, so be it if Ye Li lived. What we should pay attention to now is the situation on the battlefield. " Lei Tengfeng nodded and put away the slight depression in his heart. He said in a low voice, "Father is right. Now Mo Xiuyao is seriously injured and can't come out. But looking at the Mohist army's performance these days, Mo Xiuyao is probably seriously injured. Otherwise, Feng Zhiyao wouldn't be in a hurry to get Princess Ding back. "These days, the Mohist army was no longer as elusive as before on the battlefield, making people tired of dealing with them. It was obvious that the commander had changed. Mo Xiuyao was seriously injured to the point where he couldn't even manage the military affairs. This was definitely good news for West-Hill.
"Mo Jingli's hundreds of thousands of reinforcements have also arrived in the north. I'm afraid they are preparing to counterattack. As long as we take down the Mohist army here as soon as possible, Lu Jinxian won't be able to come back as reinforcements. "Lei Tengfeng said.
At the mention of Mo Jingli, Lei Zhenting frowned slightly and said, "Let him do what he wants. This is the only use he has. But … Tengfeng, Mo Jingli is a narrow-minded person who seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. This time, he will definitely hold a grudge in his heart. If you encounter him on the battlefield, be careful of him. If necessary … think of a way to get rid of him! "
"Father?" Lei Tengfeng was startled. He looked at Lei Zhenting with a faint sense of uneasiness. Although his father usually taught him a lot of things, he didn't tell him how to deal with the ruler of a country. Lei Zhenting smiled faintly and said, "You are not young anymore. You should have taken charge long ago. When this battle is over, Zhennan Palace will be handed over to you. "
"Father?!" Lei Tengfeng was shocked. He looked at Lei Zhenting worriedly. Lei Zhenting smiled unconcernedly and waved his hand, saying, "Forget it. Let's not worry about these things for now. We must pay attention to the defense of Yuming Pass. After all, in the eyes of the Mohist army, we are the true enemy. If there really is a crisis, Lu Jinxian might give up on Mo Jingli's side and come back with reinforcements. " Even if they didn't want to admit it, the Mohist army's enmity towards the Chu Army was not as great as their enmity towards the Xi Ling Army. Even on the battlefield, the Mohist army and the Chu Army's clashes were not as intense as the Xiling Army's clashes. It wasn't that Lu Jinxian's army wasn't strong enough. It was that both sides still recognized that they were once a family. Therefore, if there really was a crisis at the Prince Ding Mansion, Lu Jinxian would most likely give up on everything except Yuming Pass and attack the Xiling Army instead.
Lei Tengfeng nodded and said, "I understand."
Lei Zhenting nodded with satisfaction and said, "Forget it. Go and do your work."
Lei Tengfeng thought for a while and asked, "Father, did you already know that Ling Tiehan couldn't kill Ye Li?" When he came back to report, although his father was a little unhappy, he wasn't very surprised or angry. Lei Zhenting shook his head and said, "It would be best if he could kill her. It doesn't matter if he couldn't."
Lei Tengfeng looked at Lei Zhenting in confusion and frowned. All these years, it was because Ling Tiehan owed his father a favor that he didn't do anything to the Lord of Zhennan's Mansion. Now that he had returned the favor, wouldn't the Lord of Zhennan's Mansion have one more enemy?
Lei Zhenting sighed and said, "Even if this didn't happen, I would still think of a way to make him repay that favor."
"Children are slow." Lei Tengfeng really didn't understand his father's thoughts.
"Silly child, Ling Tiehan owes me a favor, not you." In Ling Tiehan's heart, there was no such thing as erasing the grudge between the two sides, nor was there such a thing as extending the favor to the next generation. However, most of the people who had wronged Ling Tiehan in the past were still living under the protection of Zhennan Palace. Either he killed Ling Tiehan before he died, or he killed all these people before he died. Otherwise, Ling Tiehan would still find trouble with Lei Tengfeng in the future. However, neither of these options were very realistic.
Lei Tengfeng left in confusion. When he reached the door, he paused and suddenly understood his father's meaning. Lei Tengfeng frowned and gritted his teeth, but he didn't go back in. As expected, he wasn't strong enough. That was why his father was so worried about him …
