Zhao Mingli clenched his teeth, clearly unconvinced, but in the end he still nodded.
But he quickly revealed a smile, but when Ye Tianze looked at him, he immediately put away his smile.
"Why don't you just kill him!" Tang Tianjun said, "If this kind of person stays in Tian Nan City, wouldn't it be a big disaster?"
"Although he is a big disaster, if he can think for Tian Nan City, then he will be a big disaster for others."
Ye Tianze said, "Moreover, people like Zhao Mingli can't be killed. If you kill this Zhao Mingli, the next Zhao Mingli will hide and make you even more miserable. So, you have to keep him and let people like him play their role. Gather thousands of Zhao Mingli together and stand in the light. At least this is better than letting them stand in the dark."
"I don't understand." Tang Tianjun shook his head.
"You will understand sooner or later. Now … go and accept the honor that belongs to you." Ye Tianze rode his donkey and took the lead, quickly disappearing into Tian Nan City.
At first, Tang Tianjun didn't understand what Ye Tianze's last sentence meant, but when he entered the city, he suddenly understood.
Because, the woman who he once tried to curry favor with, but disdained him and even stared at him with disgust, was now looking at him with an extremely strange gaze.
This made Tang Tianjun feel uncomfortable all over. He always wanted to avoid her gaze, but when he thought about it, he was a dignified man. He didn't steal or rob, so why should he avoid her gaze?
So, he raised his head, stuck out his chest, and slowly walked past her. From beginning to end, he didn't look at her. He admitted that he was still a little afraid to look at her.
Although he didn't know what that gaze meant, Tang Tianjun still felt a little bit of accomplishment. At least he knew that it wasn't hate.
Ever since the battle on the city wall, Gong Yaping had completely changed her opinion of Tang Tianjun. She felt extremely vexed over her previous behavior.
When Tang Tianjun led her people out of the city to chase after the demons without hesitation, Gong Yaping didn't know what the others were thinking, but she did break out in a cold sweat for Tang Tianjun. She was worried about her from the beginning to the end.
She had once wondered why she, a descendant of a titled family, would worry about such a man. What right did he have to make her worry?
She was very conflicted. She did not understand why she had become like this.
Countless times, she thought that these people would never come back. She suppressed the worry in her heart.
Suddenly, someone shouted from the top of the city wall, "Look, they're back! Our army is back!"
Gong Yaping didn't expect that she would run to the top of the city wall to take a look. She looked from afar and counted the heads, hoping to see that familiar face.
She felt empty when she couldn't see him. However, when she saw that familiar face in the crowd, standing at the front, she was overjoyed. Then, she realized that her face was wet.
She touched her face and realized that she was crying. She was crying for a barbarian whom she had once despised and found disgusting.
At that moment, she seemed to have an answer. She watched as Tang Tianjun walked past her. She saw Tang Tianjun avoid her gaze and walk past her with his head held high.
Was he taking revenge? Yes, she had hurt him so much. Of course, he had a reason to take revenge. If she were in his shoes, she would do the same.
However, she felt very uncomfortable. This uncomfortable feeling was because she suddenly realized that it wasn't that other people didn't deserve him, but that she didn't deserve him.
And she could only watch helplessly as the person she loved slipped away from her side. He was the hero of South Sky City, the hero of South Sky City, and even the hero of the entire Southern Territory, the hero of humanity.
And she … the pearl of the Gong family, was worthless now. She was just … a prisoner of Tian Nan City. Nothing more …
Other than Tang Tianjun, many people felt the same way. They weren't used to meeting those strange gazes. They could only pretend to be calm and walk past with their heads held high.
They … still had a mission. They still had to reclaim Tian Nan City.
Disappointed people had their own missions. Gong Yaping was quickly ordered to leave the city and clean up the battlefield.
These disciples of the sects and clans had never done such a hard job in their lives. But in Tian Nan City, they had suffered all the hardships they had in their lives.
When they saw the battlefield, they were all stunned. Many of them couldn't help but vomit.
Corpses, corpses that covered the mountains and plains. Blood, a river of blood!
Suddenly, Gong Yaping and her companions thought of the Rosefinch Army that had entered the city. They thought of Tang Tianjun and those soldiers.
What kind of tragic scene had they just experienced here? And they had actually returned alive. This was something they couldn't imagine.
The number of Yao that had fallen far exceeded the number of Humans that had fallen. And these were the insufferably arrogant Yao. They used to look up to, they used to fear, they used to dream of monsters at night when they were young!
But they had all fallen. They had all fallen on this human land. The ones who had killed them were those men from before.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get to work. Do you think you're still in the sects and clans? Let me tell you, you're all prisoners now. If anyone dares to slack off, I'll whip them to death. If anyone dares to run, I'll break their legs! "
An Immortal Realm expert coldly swept his gaze over the crowd. In his eyes, this group of prisoners was simply a group of vermin that wasted resources.
He also didn't know why the City Lord was keeping these people here.
"Did we win?" Lan Yuheng ran into the secret realm almost immediately.
Lan Yuheng was still a little scared when he saw Qin Weiyang. Fortunately, Qin Weiyang was hugging the Tree of Life and sleeping soundly.
The moment Qin Weiyang returned to the secret realm, she hugged the Tree of Life and refused to let go, as if it was her family.
"Of course we won," Ye Tianze said.
"The Rosefinch Army is preparing the flying shuttle. They said there's going to be a battle. What's going on?" Lan Yuheng asked.
"Subduing Zhu Que City." Ye Tianze smiled.
"Subduing … subduing … Zhu Que … Zhu Que City?" Lan Yuheng widened his eyes in disbelief. "Are you guys crazy? Subduing Zhu Que City with just these few people? What if the demons …"
Ye Tianze immediately explained the entire process to him. Lan Yuheng was dumbfounded. "An army of a million … actually … actually … turned into ashes just like that. Boss, you … you say … what kind of monster are you? Is there someone hiding in your head?"
"There's someone hiding in your head," Ye Tianze said unhappily. "Subduing Zhu Que City, aren't you happy?"
"Happy? I'm afraid … the entire human race will be in an uproar. What was lost … was recovered in less than a year. Defeating an army of a million demons is … a huge achievement. I don't think anyone in the Southern Territory will believe it."
Lan Yuheng said excitedly, "If you didn't say it, I definitely wouldn't believe it!"
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Ye Tianze said.
"What's the big deal?" Lan Yuheng said, "Boss, you annihilated an army of a million demons. What's the big deal? Moreover, you subdued Zhu Que City. What's the big deal? You know that the Human Emperor Palace in the Southern Land made a hundred-year plan to subdue Zhu Que City! "
"A hundred years. They're preparing to use a hundred years to subdue Zhu Que City!" Lan Yuheng said, "You're actually telling me what's the big deal?"
"Oh." Ye Tianze's expression was a little cold.
Because he didn't do all this for glory, nor did he want others to admire him.
He did all this to repay the debt from his previous life. If there was really someone who made him look forward to this, that person must be one of his old brothers. It must be Zhu Que. It must be …
The man who protected him in Shitai Commandery, Tuoba Yun!
However, Tuoba Yun was dead. He couldn't save Tuoba Yun even if he risked his life. However, his old brothers were no longer around. He had failed to live up to their expectations.
The only person … who was still worthy of his expectations was Zhu Que.
"You freak! No, no, no, I have to send this news back immediately. I can't even imagine how His Majesty the Human Sovereign will reward you. With such a great contribution, His Majesty the Human Sovereign will give you a title, right?" Lan Yuheng left excitedly.
"We haven't subdued Zhu Que City yet," Ye Tianze shouted.
"That's something that will happen sooner or later. The million-strong demon army has been destroyed. What will the demons use to defend Zhu Que City? I reckon the demons still don't know."
Lan Yuheng jogged out. "I have to ask for rewards for all of you, for the entire Rosefinch Army, and for all my brothers in Tian Nan City. I have to get ahead of that bad guy Zhao Mingli. Otherwise, he will definitely steal the credit. Our brothers can't not have this credit!"
After Zhao Mingli returned to Tian Nan City, he went to his own residence. As the Army Supervisor, he naturally had his own residence.
"Little brat, you think you can kill me just because you said so? How can I not have a share in such a great achievement? I have the final say with the Human Emperor. "
Zhao Mingli scribbled furiously and quickly finished writing a memorial. He was best at this kind of thing, and in this memorial, he replaced Ye Tianze.
He became the commander of the entire war. Although the Rosefinch Army, Tian Nan City, and Ye Tianze weren't neglected, he was the key strategist.
Without him, there wouldn't have been this victory.
"Immediately report to the Imperial Dragon City. Send it to the Human Emperor as soon as possible." Zhao Mingli called someone over.
Only when he saw that person leave did he let out a sigh of relief. In the human race, no power could compare to the Zhao family when it came to the speed of information transmission.
When the water became a boat, he wanted to see what Ye Tianze could do to him!
As he walked to the door, he suddenly saw the soldiers who were about to set out to conquer Vermilion Bird City. Zhao Mingli was stunned.
In his mind, he suddenly thought of the scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. He thought of the people who fell in front of him one by one, and the soldiers who came back with him covered in cuts and bruises.
His heart was suddenly touched. He began to pace in the room, his heart becoming more and more uneasy.
"Damn it, why is it like this? Why am I like this? Was I affected by that brat? No, Zhao Mingli, you are a member of the Zhao family. You are a member of the Zhao family. He won't dare to do anything to you! "Zhao Mingli said to himself.
Suddenly, he calmed down and sat back down. He wrote a new memorial and called another person over, saying, "This memorial, report to the Human Emperor as soon as possible!"
"How soon?"
"Three days, within three days, you must send it to the Imperial Dragon City!" Zhao Mingli roared.
