The fruit could be finished in a few bites, but the one on top was slowly nibbling on it like a lady.
Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi kept glancing up at her from time to time. They felt disgusted, but they also knew she was doing it on purpose. They didn't know what other tricks she had up her sleeves, so they could only brace themselves and wait.
After a while, Nie Wuxiao only had a complete fruit core left in his hand. The blade pierced through it, and he casually tossed it up. Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi's sneaky glances followed the falling fruit core and landed on the long table. The blade that had pierced through the core was stuck straight into the long table.
Nie Wuxiao took out a piece of cloth from somewhere and wiped his mouth, then his hands, and casually threw it on the table. At this moment, his gaze fell on the two below, as if he had just noticed their arrival. He asked in surprise, "Who's next?"
This was the first time Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi had a telepathic connection. They cursed in their hearts, but had no choice but to shout again, "Niu Youde and Zhan Ruyi greet the Commander!"
Nie Wuxiao flicked his fingers, and the four-section general beside him went down to hand in their transfer orders. After verifying their identities, he brought the transfer orders up for Nie Wuxiao to examine.
Miao Yi turned to look at Zhan Ruyi in surprise. Only now did he realize that this bitch Zhan Ruyi was also here for the Left Supervisory Officer's appointment.
Zhan Ruyi tilted his head to look at him, and revealed a cold smile, as if saying, 'It's too late to know now.'
Now even an idiot would know why this woman was here. Miao Yi cursed her mother in his heart. 'This woman must be crazy. She didn't want to be the Grand Commander of Sky Street, and didn't want to work for the rich benefits. She just had to come here to oppose him. This bitch just threw away a lucrative position that others couldn't even imagine. She realized that the children of rich and powerful families really couldn't be hurt.
Little did she know, just as Yang Qing had said, she was a proud and arrogant girl. She had suffered under Miao Yi's hands many times, and Zhan Ruyi was determined to get back at him. She sneakily rejected it because she was proud and arrogant. She wanted to win it back in front of everyone. This was why she didn't hesitate to come to the Left Supervisory Officer.
To most people, this was indeed crazy. But to her, the reason was that simple.
It wasn't easy to get into the Left Supervisory Guard. This place wasn't a place that just anyone could enter. At first, her family didn't agree to it either. After all, the Left Supervisory Guard was the Celestial Emperor's personal guard. Not to mention the Zhan Clan, even Heavenly King Ying did not have much influence on the Left Supervisory Guard. There was no one here who could take care of her, Zhan Ruyi.
But she couldn't stand this child's willfulness! The Zhan family knew that if they did not bring Zhan Ruyi back, they would never be able to rest. Thus, they could only use their connections to smooth things over and prepare to transfer her out after her wish was fulfilled. After all, the Left Inspector-General was not a place for someone with Zhan Ruyi's background to stay for long.
The strange thing was that the Zhan Family, who originally thought that they would have to go through a lot of trouble, realized that it was surprisingly smooth. The Left Military Inspectorate Commander, Defeating Armies, personally approved it.
He received the documents from the four generals and verified them. Nie Wuxiao put his feet down from the long table and stood up. He tossed the jade archive in his hand onto the table and onto the rag he had just wiped his hands with. He walked around the long table and down the stairs. It was only now that the two people below realized that he had a pair of cold, sharp triangular eyes.
Nie Wuxiao walked up to Zhan Ruyi and stared at her calmly, "Zhan Ruyi … Heavenly King Ying is your maternal grandfather?"
Zhan Ruyi pursed her lips. She was actually quite disgusted with people mentioning this in front of her. It made her seem like she was a useless person who had to rely on her maternal grandfather for everything. She especially disliked it when people mentioned this in front of Niu Youde. But she had no choice but to reply. She nodded and said, "Yes!"
What happened next was shocking. Nie Wuxiao stared at her from head to toe. Then, he raised a finger towards Zhan Ruyi's fair chin.
Zhan Ruyi quickly tilted her head and took a step back to avoid it. She angrily said, "Commander, please conduct yourself with dignity!"
Without any dignity, a Seventh Grade Rainbow Lotus suddenly appeared on Nie Wuxiao's forehead. His hand moved faster and grabbed Zhan Ruyi's chin. His powerful cultivation forced Zhan Ruyi to find it hard to resist. He pulled Zhan Ruyi's face towards him and said coldly, "I don't care who your maternal grandfather is. Here, Heavenly King Ying's words do not count. I do. If you are unhappy, get out of my sight immediately!" He pushed her away.
Zhan Ruyi staggered a few steps back before she could steady herself. Her chest heaved rapidly as she bit her lips. She was angry, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Miao Yi was secretly delighted.
Nie Wuxiao placed his hands behind his back and said, "Tell me, why are you here? This isn't a place where anyone can come and play as they please. It's not your Ying Family's playground! "
Zhan Ruyi suddenly shouted, "I want to see what's so great about the Left Supervisory Officer. I want to know if you are truly the best of the best!"
"Oh!" Nie Wuxiao smiled and said, "Your courage is commendable. But this place really isn't suitable for nobles like you. It's not too late to back out now. Otherwise, once you officially take office, you won't be able to do as you please!"
His heart was also filled with rage. Suddenly, a pair of adulterous couple had appeared out of nowhere and pushed away two of his trusted subordinates. Furthermore, he had also found out that this Zhan Ruyi was most likely chasing after that Niu Youde for a personal grudge. What did he take his Black Dragon Division for? Of all places to go, he just had to come here!
Zhan Ruyi said confidently, "I'm not retreating!"
She wasn't afraid at all. Since she could come here, she could leave whenever she wanted. How could a mere headquarters stop her? Unless the Left Supervisory Officer's troops couldn't travel freely in the Ying Family's territory in the future, the Ying Family would have plenty of ways to find trouble with them.
Nie Wuxiao stared at her for a while, then hooked his finger at Miao Yi and beckoned him over. He asked, "What about you? Why did you come here? "
'Dammit, I'm so famous. I don't believe you don't know about me!' Miao Yi thought to himself. But on the surface, he said calmly, "I'm different from Zhan Ruyi. I don't want to come here. If the Lord Commander thinks I'm not suitable and is willing to kick me out, I will leave immediately. I won't cause any trouble for the Black Dragon Division."
There was something fishy going on here. What was he afraid of? Trying to scare him with the same tactics he used to scare Zhan Ruyi? No way!
As soon as he said this, Nie Wuxiao's expression stiffened. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Indeed, he didn't want to accept Zhan Ruyi. Of course, he didn't want to accept Miao Yi either. However, Miao Yi's personality was different. The Lieutenant had personally greeted him. If he really kicked him out, he wouldn't be able to explain himself later.
Nie Wuxiao originally wanted to play around with Miao Yi and put him in his place. Who would've thought that he would end up punching cotton instead?
The four-segmented general standing next to the table was also speechless.
Zhan Ruyi abruptly turned around and stared at Miao Yi with widened eyes. He felt like he had been tricked by Miao Yi.
'If Miao Yi really left, then what's the point of her coming here? If she requested to be transferred out as soon as she arrived, it would be strange if the Left Supervisory Officer would let her go. Did he think the Left Supervisory Officer belonged to her family? That she could come and go as she pleased? For the sake of the Left Supervisory Officer's authority, he wouldn't let her go. He might even detain her for the rest of her life. When that happened, even her grandfather might not be able to get her out so easily. After all, this was the Celestial Emperor's Imperial Guard. It wasn't a place to be trifled with. Even her grandfather wouldn't be able to say anything about it!
Let's not talk about this first. If Miao Yi really ran away just like that, then she, Zhan Ruyi, would probably become a joke.
The hall fell into an eerie silence.
Miao Yi suddenly cupped his fists and broke the silence. He cupped his fists and pleaded, "This general's abilities are limited. I'm afraid that I'll disgrace the Black Dragon Division's reputation. I still wish to return to Heaven's Avenue. I hope that Chief Commander Nie will grant my wish. If you don't accept me, then send me back to East Flower Division's headquarters!"
Nie Wuxiao wasn't so useless that he couldn't even make a subordinate stay. If he didn't even have this little bit of ability, then his position as chief commander would probably be replaced soon. He calmly said, "I've heard of the reputation of entering and exiting an army of a million men. With such an achievement, it's fine for you to come to my Black Dragon Division."
With a flip of his hand, he took out an official token and invoked his transcendence seal to write down the appointment decree. He then tossed it to Miao Yi and said, "Go to the Black Tiger Division immediately and assume your post."
Zhan Ruyi's heart was bleeding as she bit her lip. This treatment, this disparity was too obvious. And that bastard's reputation of entering and exiting an army of a million men had been built on her shoulders. How hateful!
Miao Yi accepted the official token and looked at the contents. His title was Left Commandant, and he was in charge of the Suppressing Second Guard, Big Dipper Army, Black Dragon Division, and Black Tiger Division's Grand Commander. His rank was correct, and there was no sign of a demotion. However, he still cupped his fists and said, "Chief Commander, can you make an exception for me? This general has no other abilities other than serving as a herbivore. I might be able to make a small ruckus in Heaven's Avenue, but I can't command such a large army. I feel that I'm really not suited for this position."
Nie Wuxiao's face darkened. "What do you think this is? I've already issued the appointment decree. How can you come and go as you please? Do you want to experience the military laws of the Black Dragon Division? "
Miao Yi stared at him for a long time. In the end, he forced out a helpless expression and cupped his fists. "I accept your orders!"
As he said this, he turned around and waved the appointment decree at Zhan Ruyi, who was staring at him. He even raised an eyebrow and winked at Zhan Ruyi, as if to remind Zhan Ruyi of the disparity between them. 'You can't get what I don't want even if you beg for it!'
This small gesture was only for Zhan Ruyi to see. He returned to his original position, turned around, and lowered his eyes as if nothing had happened.
This was a blatant provocation! Zhan Ruyi almost vomited blood in anger.
Meanwhile, Nie Wuxiao had also finished writing the other appointment decree. He tossed it to Zhan Ruyi and said, "Go to the Blue Tiger Division immediately and assume your post!"
Zhan Ruyi received the decree and checked that there were no mistakes. He cupped his fists and said, "I accept your orders!"
Nie Wuxiao didn't say anything else. He turned around and went straight to the rear hall. Before he disappeared, he waved his hand. The four-segmented general next to the table walked over and reported his identity. He was the Black Dragon Division's Vice Commander, Bo Yue.
The Black Dragon Division's Tiger Division was divided into Sky, Purple, White, Gold, Blue, Earth, Black, Red, Green, and Blue. The first five divisions were under the jurisdiction of a Vice Commander called Xiang Baigong, while the latter five divisions were under Bo Yue's jurisdiction. In other words, Bo Yue was their superior. This was also the reason why he was here now.
Bo Yue's mood was the same as Nie Wuxiao's when he found out that two of the Great Commanders' positions were suddenly replaced by these two fellows. This was also the reason why he had appeared at the foot of the mountain and rudely confronted Zhan Ruyi. He hoped to scare Zhan Ruyi away.
Seeing that he was their direct superior, Miao Yi and Xiang Baigong hurriedly greeted him.
