Niu Youde? The group of commanders in the hall instantly became silent, and the hall instantly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. They were all stunned by the sudden appearance of this name. There were probably not many people in this world who had such a name.
The key was that they hadn't heard of this person's name for many years. Those who knew this person all knew that this person was really famous in the past. He really used a barbaric way to climb to the position of the Nether Domain Chief. When this Niu Youde's early deeds were mentioned, the commanders present all had a deep impression of him.
When he was the Great Commander in Tianjie, he killed the heads of the nobles and servants of the imperial court.
When he offended someone and was sent to purgatory, he didn't die. Instead, he single-handedly killed millions of troops three times and mocked them as cowards!
When he robbed an actor, he offended someone and was sent to the Imperial Guards to be punished. In the end, he managed to subdue his subordinates. Then, he led the Imperial Guards to besiege Tianjie, scaring the merchants in Tianjie. Under the threat and intimidation, the matter was only settled when the merchants in Tianjie generously donated money to eliminate the disaster. At that time, there was a joke that Niu Youde's name could stop children from crying in Tianjie. The commotion could be said to be known by the whole world.
What was even more amazing was that Niu Youde beat up Heavenly King Ying's granddaughter, the Heavenly Concubine who was the most favored by the Heaven Emperor, and hung her on the flagpole to humiliate her.
But even so, he still climbed to the position of the Commander of the Black Dragon Division of the Imperial Guards with merit. In the Imperial Guards, merit was the most solid capital.
Not long after his promotion, he caused trouble again. When the Heaven Emperor married the Heavenly Concubine, this guy actually scolded Heavenly King Ying on the spot for selling his daughter for glory. It caused a sensation for a while, and he was banished to the Desolate Ancient Land of Death to be punished for a thousand years, but he didn't die. When he came back alive, he snatched a widow from a certain Domain Chief. He was extremely daring. Not only did he capture the Domain Chief and execute him, but he also led half of the Tiger Flag to defeat millions of elites and killed hundreds of thousands of people. That really made him famous. It was said that the four Heavenly Kings all invited him to be their son-in-law. Later, the Kou Heavenly King took the widow as his adopted daughter. But that battle caused the Black Dragon Division to be disbanded, and Niu Youde himself was demoted to a small soldier to guard Yutian. However, he did not learn his lesson. He caused trouble in Yutian and killed many of the nobles' children, and even Heavenly King Ying's grandson.
After being tossed around and sent to the Ghost City, he deftly climbed back to his original rank from being a small soldier, and forcibly changed the Zongzhen Manor and Ksitigarbha Temple that had been fixed for countless years in the Ghost City. After that, he made a bet in the royal court, causing the Ghost City to have a grand occasion where mountain gods and land gods from all over the world came to invest. It caused a sensation all over the world, and he forcefully expanded the Zongzhen Manor to the level of the Presidential Manor. Because of that, he climbed to the position of Lieutenant General!
To the people present, some of the details might not be clear, but they had heard the general idea. Niu Youde was repeatedly involved in the battles between the nobles in the imperial court. If it was an ordinary person, he would have died many times. But this guy was actually alive and well. He was really strong. He was really worthy of the surname Niu.
How could one not get his feet wet if he often walked by the river? If he walked too much at night, there would be a day when he would run into ghosts. Just when everyone thought that this guy would definitely not stop and that he would fail sooner or later, he suddenly became quiet. The world was so big, but gradually, there was no news of him. He became completely low-key. They only knew that Quiet Spring, who had always been free to come and go, had been charged by that guy!
After thinking about it for a while, the past of Niu Youde appeared in their minds. They all muttered to themselves, "This Niu Youde must have been in hiding for at least ten thousand years. Why did he suddenly appear here?"
Everyone quickly glanced at the Lord Niu Youde's reaction and discovered that the Lord Niu Youde's face was tense. Many people subconsciously looked at each other.
There was no wall in this world that didn't have a crack. Especially in a situation where many people had speculated, there were some things that were not considered secrets. Everyone here had heard that the demotion of the Son of Heaven had something to do with Imperial Concubine Zither. It was just that no one knew what role Imperial Concubine Zither played in this matter.
This was not the key point. The key point was that Niu Youde was a general of the Heavenly Valley Palace. He was under the direct command of the Heavenly Empress and was the only general under the Heavenly Empress. If the rumors were true, then Imperial Concubine Zither really did have something to do with the demotion of the Son of Heaven. The number one general under the Heavenly Empress had come looking for him. Why did it feel like something was wrong!
More importantly, the one who came looking for him was not someone else, but that Niu Youde from the past!
Was there anything that this madman did not dare to do? He even scolded Heavenly King Ying. He dared to cause trouble at the Heavenly Emperor's wedding ceremony and even killed the grandson of Heavenly King Ying. A mere Lord Niu Youde was nothing in his eyes. It was not like he had never killed a Lord Niu Youde before.
What made everyone's scalp tingle was that this person had the rank of a Lord Niu Youde in his hands, the 'Number One Army under the Heavens'. They were the elites of the 100,000 elites. Any random soldier in his hands was equivalent to the strength of a commander here. He had dozens of Infinite Realm experts under his command. There was probably no other Lord Niu Youde in the entire world who had such treatment.
This person was called the Netherworld Lord Niu Youde! If he really came looking for trouble because of the Son of Heaven, that madman dared to kill a million elites with half a tiger flag. He had 100,000 elites of the elites in his hands. If he really wanted to use force, who would be able to stop him! He could probably flatten the entire Domain of Geng!
"Logically, this madman would not do anything rash. Attacking the Domain of Geng for no reason, would he be able to bear this crime?"
"Logically? Other people could act logically, but can this madman act logically? Do you think he can't digest the accusation? "
"..."
"The Heavenly Empress must be crazy. Why did she summon this madman?"
The commanders present began to secretly communicate with each other. Usually, even when Miao Yi was in the limelight, they would only listen to him or talk about it. The world was so big, and they never thought that Miao Yi could be related to them in any way. They never thought that he could threaten them, so they never thought of him as a threat.
Now, when Miao Yi really came knocking on their door, they recalled what Lord Niu had done in the past. They truly felt an imminent threat, and their scalps went numb.
At this moment, the group of people suddenly had a feeling that they could smell blood. A ferocious tiger had come out of the mountains!
Among the commanders present, there was a beautiful woman who was very quiet. She did not participate in the secret communication of the crowd. She thought she would never cross paths with Miao Yi again in this life. She did not expect to meet him here.
Who was she? Her name was Yan Su. She used to be a colleague of Miao Yi in the Dong Hua County Headquarters. At that time, she and Miao Yi were both commanders of Sky Avenue. She and a group of people once humiliated Miao Yi. Later, they participated in the assessment together in Purgatory, and Miao Yi chased them away in panic. After the assessment, they returned to the Dong Hua County Headquarters and were forced by Miao Yi to pay an apology. They were even slapped by Miao Yi.
At that time, she was still the wife of a Lieutenant and had a lucrative position in Sky Avenue. Later, when the Marquis of Heavenly Origin fell from power, her husband was also taken advantage of and died a violent death. The lucrative position that she had relied on her connections to maintain naturally came and went quickly, and she lost her position as the Great Commander of Sky Avenue. The person who killed her husband was her husband's rival in love. He had pursued her before, but she had chosen someone with better conditions. After killing her husband, that person still wanted to vent his anger on her. In order to save her life, she had secretly begged that person to spare her. At that point, what else could she, a woman, use to beg for help? The price she had to pay was to let that person get what he wanted. However, that person already had a legal wife, so it was impossible for him to marry her again. He had no interest in marrying her either. He only treated her as his exclusive property to make up for the regret in his heart all those years ago. The two of them had always maintained a secret relationship.
It could be said that effort was rewarded. As she worked hard to please him, that person quite enjoyed it and did not mistreat her. He used his connections to help her get to her current position as the Head Commander. That person was also a Lieutenant now, and could be considered a colleague of Wang Zhuo.
In order to help her stabilize their relationship, that person had already secretly informed her that he would be coming today to congratulate Wang Zhuo on his promotion.
At first, Yan Su thought that Miao Yi was here for her. However, when she thought about it, she found it amusing. Would Niu Youde still care about her now? Besides, Niu Youde had already vented his anger on her back then. He had to compensate her and even get beaten up.
"Commander Yan, weren't you colleagues with Niu Youde back then?"
Someone suddenly transmitted his voice to her.
Yan Su replied somewhat ruefully, "You can say that."
Back then, the details of what had happened in the East Flower Head Commander Manor were not clear to those who were too far away. After she was transferred here, she knew about her disgraceful side, so she never mentioned her past with Niu Youde to anyone.
The person asked again, "How is your relationship with Niu Youde?"
Yan Su replied, "Not really a relationship. We just nodded at each other."
"Is Niu Youde really as arrogant as the rumors say?"
"Perhaps!"
A little shocked, Wang Zhuo's eyes flickered. After pondering for a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Which Niu Youde?"
Even though the person had already reported it clearly, the Lord Lieutenant seemed to not believe him. Hence, he reported again with a clear voice, "It's the Netherworld's Lieutenant, Niu Youde."
Wang Zhuo's expression changed again. He asked gravely, "Where is he?"
The person replied, "He's waiting outside the mountain gates."
Wang Zhuo asked, "How many people came?"
The person replied, "Only two attendants."
"Are you sure that only two people came?" Wang Zhuo didn't dare to believe it and asked, "Did you search them?"
"..." The person was a little speechless. He was the Netherworld's Lieutenant, and you are also a Lieutenant. Both of you are visiting at the same level. What reason do you have to search them? Isn't that a humiliation? If you don't say anything, who would dare to do so? After being stunned for a while, he shook his head and said, "No! Lord, do we need to search them? "
The commanders present all looked at Wang Zhuo with a strange expression. They found that the Lord Lieutenant was a little confused. They couldn't help but murmur secretly. There were some things that the Lord Lieutenant should know in his heart. It seemed that Concubine Qin really had something to do with the demotion of the Emperor. Otherwise, the Lord Lieutenant wouldn't be so confused.
As soon as Wang Zhuo said it, he also realized that he was confused. He waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to search.
The person asked, "Lord, do you want to come in or..."
