The Three Great Elders Ask for an Audience
After Zhou Huai, Wang Kai, and Guo Zhi discussed among themselves.
He hurriedly rushed towards the Yellow Sky Guards' camp.
"It's Elder Zhou, Elder Wang, and Elder Guo! The three of them are here!"
"Wang Rufeng and Zhou Yucai are Elder Zhou and Elder Wang's clansmen. The three of them must have come to stop Marquis Shenjian from using torture!"
"If the three of the ten great elders were to clash head-on with Marquis Shenjian, who would be at a disadvantage?"
"Although Marquis Shenjian's rise is shocking, the three elders are deeply rooted in the Heaven Court. They also have powerful clans. How could Marquis Shenjian win?"
"No matter what, there's going to be a good show to watch this time!"
When the three elders arrived at the Yellow Sky Guards' camp, the warriors who were waiting for news outside the camp began to discuss.
However, Zhou Huai and his two companions did not charge into the Yellow Sky Guards Army's main camp aggressively as the crowd expected.
They actually stopped outside the camp and asked someone to go in and report their arrival.
"What's going on? The ten great elders should be able to enter the Yellow Sky Guards' camp at any time. Why did they send someone in to report? "
"It can't be. Are the three elders really afraid of Luo Zheng?"
"How is that possible? There must be something else that no one knows."
Seeing this, many people found it hard to believe.
"Marquis, Elder Zhou, Elder Wang, and Elder Guo request an audience with the Marquis!"
At this moment, Luo Zheng also received the report from the soldiers and revealed a thoughtful expression. "The three old men really came. However, they didn't rush into the camp directly. Instead, they sent someone in to report. What's going on? Are they going to give in? "
"Let them come in!"
Luo Zheng thought for a moment, then a cold smile appeared on his face as he casually waved his hand.
In any case, no matter what the three elders' motives were, he had firmly grasped the truth in his hands. He was not afraid of any tricks they might play.
He didn't really care about the ten great elders of the Yellow Heaven Court.
The reason why these ten people could become the Ten Great Elders was not because of how strong their cultivation was, but because of the powerful forces behind them.
For example, the strength of these ten great elders was uneven. Some were at the middle stage of the Sky Profound Realm, some were at the early stage of the Sky Profound Realm, and some were even at the Earth Profound Realm.
At this point, three generals had already been beaten eight hundred times and were on the verge of death.
This was also because Luo Zheng didn't want to kill these people.
If it weren't for Luo Zheng secretly instructing the black yak not to kill these people, with the black yak's strength, even if these people had three or four lives, they would have died without a doubt.
"Master Marquis Shenjian, what's going on? Did something happen in the Imperial Guard?"
The moment the three elders entered the camp, their gazes swept over the overturned tent and the mess on the ground. All of them pretended to reveal a surprised expression as they asked.
"Hahaha, how come the three elders have the time to come to my Imperial Guard?"
Luo Zheng didn't respond to the three's words and only laughed heartily as he exchanged pleasantries with the three elders.
Hearing this, the three smiled wryly. They knew that Luo Zheng was difficult to deal with. If he didn't respond to the three's words, they wouldn't be able to talk about what happened afterwards.
However, they didn't dare to beat around the bush with Luo Zheng. They saw the two generals who had been beaten until their heads and buttocks were bleeding and their bones were shattered.
The three couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts as they secretly exclaimed at Luo Zheng's ruthlessness.
The third general who was being punished was Zhou Yucai of the Zhou family.
Zhou Yucai had only been beaten a few dozen times and was already badly mutilated. He had fainted.
This way, they could no longer feign ignorance. Zhou Huai could only brace himself and say, "Marquis, to be honest, we three old men have specially come to plead for mercy for the generals!"
"Plead for mercy? It seems that the three elders know what happened in my Imperial Guard camp? These seven generals were disrespectful to military discipline and looked down on this marquis. They didn't know their place and even attacked this marquis in a place as important as the main tent. "
Luo Zheng had a smile on his face as he said, "If the three elders are pleading for mercy for them, I'm afraid this marquis will be in a difficult position!"
"Marquis, this Zhou Yucai is one of the more outstanding talents of my Zhou family. Can you temporarily stop the punishment and listen to a few words from this old man?"
Seeing the black yak strike again and again viciously, Zhou Huai's expression turned ugly. He hurriedly said, "This general has indeed made a mistake, but since it's their first offense and the Marquis is in charge of the Imperial Guard, why don't you give them a chance?"
"Speaking of chances, this marquis didn't just give them one chance. I gave them two!"
Luo Zheng smiled faintly and signaled for the black yak to stop. "Elder Zhou is right. This Marquis is indeed in need of people, but I want people who can use people. I don't want people who have no respect for military discipline and don't know the difference between superior and inferior!"
"Two times, what does the Marquis mean by this?"
Wang Kai asked as the three elders furrowed their brows.
At this time, they all felt that something was wrong.
Today's matter wouldn't be resolved so easily even if they admitted defeat.
