Upon hearing this, Xu Tangran almost burst out laughing. The Senior Commander was really impolite. He had just discovered the adulterous affair between those two last night, and today, he was already ordering him around. Currently, Black Tiger Flag had a full-time mission, which was to guard this star field. Without permission, they were not allowed to leave. Under normal circumstances, even if they asked for permission, the higher-ups might not agree. However, Qu Yahong and Mu Yulian had a special relationship with Vice President Bo, and Vice President Bo was the direct superior of Black Tiger Flag, so it was best to let these two speak for him.
"Yes!" Qu and Mu answered in unison.
Yang Qing was somewhat flabbergasted as he glanced at them. He realized that the two Deputy Commanders had agreed too readily. The higher-ups might not necessarily agree to such a matter. Shouldn't they discuss it a little more?
For the time being, he did not know what had happened to Qu and Mu, but he could sense that something was wrong from their unusual behavior.
After the meeting, Yang Qing went to look for Miao Yi and raised his suspicions. Miao Yi didn't hide this matter from him and roughly told him what Xu Tangran had done. Yang Qing was speechless …
Should I drag the troops out to get used to each other? Where should he go to break in? Now was the time to carry out a fixed mission, so why was he running around?
When Bo Yeu received the report from the Black Tiger Flag, he immediately vetoed it and told Qu and Mu not to get involved in this matter. However, the two of them pestered him separately, saying that they wouldn't delay the official business, and that they would only take a small portion of the people for a stroll. They also said that the two of them had just officially accepted the mission in front of everyone, and they had made a promise. If they couldn't complete it, how could they bear it?
Unable to withstand their coaxing and pestering, Bo Yue had no choice but to find Nie Wuxiao to report. Although he was in charge of the Black Tiger Flag, he still had to inform Nie Wuxiao about the mobilization of troops. Usually, when he explained the situation clearly, Nie Wuxiao wouldn't interfere unless it was a big matter. If Nie Wuxiao didn't agree, Bo Yue couldn't do anything about it.
The two of them walked down the stone steps from the top of the mountain. Nie Wuxiao frowned and said, "We're on a mission now. What are you running around for instead of guarding there?"
Bo Yeu laughed. "In the end, it's because Niu Youde has just taken over the Black Tiger Flag. Niu Youde doesn't know what will happen after forcefully reorganizing it, so he wants to drag him out for a walk."
Nie Wuxiao pondered for a while. "You're in charge of the Black Tiger Flag. What do you mean?"
Boyo said, "This subordinate believes that as long as it doesn't delay the current mission, it's not a bad thing to break in a little. After all, Niu Youde has never stayed in the Left Supervisory Guard. It's better to have an idea of what's going on. Otherwise, if something unexpected were to happen, how would the guards at Tianjie be able to handle it? "
Nie Wuxiao listened and nodded slightly. He felt that what Zhang Xuan said made sense, but he still added something. "Firstly, I can't delay the mission at hand. Secondly, I can't run too far away."
"Yes!" Bo Yue agreed and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Finally, he could give the two little beauties an explanation.
Once the matter was settled, Miao Yi praised the two Vice Great Commanders for a while, saying that they would definitely be heavily injured after the battle. At the same time, he ordered for twenty thousand troops from the Ten Eagle Banners to regroup with them.
Qu and Mu didn't expect to receive any generous rewards. There was one thing that they understood. The Senior Commander must have known of his relationship with Bo Yue. Otherwise, he would not have sent him to deal with Bo Yue.
How did he know? Qu and Mu looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with hatred and hostility, as if they wanted to kill each other.
"Yes!" The two of them accepted the order and went to carry out the decree.
After the two of them left, Miao Yi summoned Xu Tangran and instructed, "Contact our acquaintances at Tianjie on Tianyuan Planet. Spread some rumors. Say that I will be leading the Black Tiger Banner's army to bathe Tianjie in blood!"
As soon as he said this, the people at the side were shocked. Yang Qing quickly cupped his fists and stopped him. "Milord, you mustn't …"
Miao Yi raised his hand and stopped him from continuing. "I already said it's just a rumor. I have my own plans. Just do as I say. "
Xu Tangran glanced left and right, and could only obey the order.
Yang Qing furrowed his brows and shot a glance at Fei Hong, who was standing beside Miao Yi. He didn't know why Miao Yi would make such a decision in front of Fei Hong and say such words.
Soon, that afternoon, the two transferred troops arrived at Tianyuan Planet. Together with the troops from the central army, they gathered over thirty thousand troops and departed from Planet Six-Fingered in a grandiose manner.
Just as quickly, the rumor of bathing Tianjie in blood spread like wildfire. Like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, the rumor quickly spread throughout the entire Tianjie.
If it were anyone else, the merchants of Tianjie would never believe that someone would dare to do such a thing. However, when it came to Commander Niu, there was no need to worry about whether they believed it or not. He had already bathed Tianjie in blood twice. It wouldn't be strange for him to do it a third time.
The main concern now was whether the rumor was true or false, and whether Niu Youde had really mobilized his army and was heading here.
"Again?"
Heavenly Incense Tower. A waiter rushed in from outside to inform Mother Xu of the news. Mother Xu gasped when she heard the news.
'Hall of Heroes, Huangfu Jun?' Y frowned when he heard the news. He paced back and forth in his room and muttered to himself, "There's no smoke without fire. That guy can't be serious, right?"
Although she and Miao Yi had a falling out, she could still control herself when they lived close by. Moreover, Miao Yi was still in Tianjie. However, once they were separated, the longing became a little torturous. She kept thinking about how Miao Yi had offended Granny Lü and gotten kicked out of Tianjie over his refusal to make Feihong his legal wife. Every time she thought about it, the softest part of her heart would be touched. Even the look in her eyes became gentle. After some thought, she finally took out the Star Bell and prepared to use the rumor as an excuse to contact Miao Yi.
However, after repeated attempts, Miao Yi actually ignored her message. As a result, she was once again heartbroken.
"Men!" Huangfu Jun. Y opened the window and shouted. He ordered his men to immediately pay attention to the movements of the Black Tiger Flag to see if Miao Yi would really lead his army here.
When the rumor came, Murong Xinghua was guarding the city palace. Previously, Fu Qing used the matter of the shop to test her, which prompted her to quickly make a decision. She took the initiative to express that she wanted to leave Tianjie and asked Fu Qing to make arrangements for her.
With the sudden spread of the rumor, Fu Qing and Murong Xinghua were both shocked and had no choice but to temporarily stop their conversation.
Fu Qing took out the Star Bell and contacted Miao Yi, 'Ol' Five, I heard you want to bring your army here to bathe in blood. '
Miao Yi: 'Second Brother, I know what I'm doing. You don't have to worry too much. I won't make things difficult for you.'
Fu Qing: 'So you really want to do this?'
Miao Yi: 'I haven't thought it through yet. Let's go and take a look first.'
After the communication ended, Murong Xinghua probed, "Great Commander, what does Great Commander Niu mean by this?"
Fu Qing smiled bitterly, "He said he hasn't thought it through yet."
Murong Xinghua was speechless.
Fa Yin and Yu Nujiao had already retreated from the Celestial Avenue. When Yun Zhiqiu and Ji Meili heard the news, they immediately contacted Miao Yi and asked him if it was true. Miao Yi told them not to believe the rumors and to focus on their own businesses.
Many people contacted Miao Yi. Even Spiritual Master Yu Xu from the Morality Goods Store contacted Miao Yi. However, Miao Yi didn't believe a single word.
It wouldn't have mattered if it was just a rumor. However, someone soon discovered that the Black Tiger Flag Army was marching towards Heaven's Origin Planet. When the news reached Tianjie, it matched the rumor and caused a huge uproar.
The normal merchants were fine. They had nothing to worry about since they didn't have any grudges with Miao Yi. What they were worried about were the merchants from the noble families who humiliated Miao Yi when they saw him off. Miao Yi had already said that he would come back to take care of them. When they heard that Miao Yi was really heading towards them with his army, they were frightened out of their wits.
The first thing many merchants did was to contact their masters and ask for instructions on what to do next. Their masters reprimanded them. 'He hasn't even arrived yet, and they're already so scared. What's there to be afraid of? The Left Commandant wouldn't dare to do such a thing.'
To the shopkeepers, this was easy talk. 'You don't have to be afraid if you don't have to suffer a knife, but I'm going to lose my head here!'
A group of people found Fu Qing and begged him to stop the army. As the Great Commander of Tianjie, Fu Qing was responsible for defending the city and naturally gave his word.
However, it was useless. The news they received was that Miao Yi was still leading the Black Tiger Flag Army towards them. He had no intention of turning around or turning back.
Hence, some people didn't care anymore and decided to temporarily hide. With the reason of avoiding losses, they packed up the goods in their shops. Once the shops were closed, everyone left and waited for this matter to be resolved. As the shopkeepers, they naturally had the right to decide whether to close or open their shops for a short period of time.
With this shop taking the lead, the other shops belonging to the influential families in Tianjie followed suit and set off a wave of shop closures. All of them closed their shops and ran away. The shops belonging to the influential families monopolized the daily transactions of cultivators. One could imagine the impact this would have on Tianyuan Planet's Tianjie.
The small shops were overjoyed. They immediately took the opportunity to sell the items that they normally wouldn't sell.
'Inside the Guardian Palace?' On the watchtower, which was also the highest point in the city, Fu Qing leaned on the railing and looked at the chaotic Tianjie. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said to Qing Feng, "I already assured them that everything would be fine, but they still ran away."
Qing Feng said, "Fifth Lord has accumulated a lot of power here."
The news of the Black Tiger Flag Army marching towards Tianyuan Planet's Tianjie not only caused a huge uproar in Tianjie, but also shocked all the influential families in the imperial court. The Left Commandant's troops wanted to bathe Tianjie in blood? What kind of joke was this?
Previously, there were already many influential families who thought highly of Miao Yi for taking down the Black Tiger Flag Army. Now, Miao Yi was doing this again. They had just praised him, and now he wanted to slap them in the face. It was as if he was going against the influential families in the Heavenly Court.
Inside a small private room in the Heavenly Morning Star Lord's manor, Pang Guan looked out the window with his hands behind his back. He shook his head and sighed, "Is this guy smart or stupid? He keeps doing this. Is there an end to this?"
The old servant Chen Huaijiu said, "I'm afraid all the influential families in the imperial court can't wait for him to do something like this. They're all waiting to watch the show. I'm afraid some of them are already thinking about how to write a memorial to impeach the Left Commandant."
Just as the two of them said, the entire imperial court fell silent after the shock. Not a single one of them reported the impeachment. Behind the calm usually came the arrival of a storm.
However, the Celestial Emperor wasn't blind or deaf. How could he not know that such a huge incident had happened? This Niu Youde actually wanted to drag his personal guards into a huge mess. How could he let this slide? He immediately ordered the Left Commandant, Sima Wentian, and the Left Commandant, Pojun, to come to the Celestial Hall.
