Things happened too quickly, and the strength of a level five Celestial Master was too high. By the time everyone reacted, the Grand General was already lying on the ground.
Lu An bent the Grand General's arm, and it was obvious that it was broken at this angle. Lu An stepped directly on the Grand General's head, and at the same time, he exerted force with his hand, as if he wanted to pull the Grand General's arm off.
Everyone who saw this scene was shocked!
A level five Celestial Master! The Grand General was a level five Celestial Master, how could this happen?!
Not only was the mayor shocked by this scene, but Xu Zhu and the Chu couple were also shocked. The three of them were the closest, and they could feel the despair emanating from Lu An's body. This kind of emotion made them not dare to resist, and they could only stand there and tremble, waiting to be slaughtered.
They did not even dare to look at that pair of red eyes.
Everyone in the hall held their breaths and did not dare to speak. Only the Grand General, who was lying on the ground, kept howling in pain. The Grand General desperately wanted to stand up, but his head was firmly stepped on, and there was no room for him to get up.
At this moment, Lu An suddenly turned to look at Xu Zhu and asked, "With my status, can I kill him?"
Xu Zhu was stunned and quickly said, "You are the mayor, which is equivalent to a king. Of course you can kill a general, but … we are at war now, and I am afraid that killing a general at this time will cause chaos in the army."
Lu An nodded, looked at the Grand General on the ground, and said, "He can be spared from death, but he can't escape punishment. From now on, he will be stripped of all positions in the army and locked in prison until he is needed to work for the country! "
However, after Lu An finished speaking, no one in the hall dared to move. Lu An turned to look at the mayor and said coldly, "What, does the mayor have a problem with this?"
The mayor was scared out of his wits, and he quickly said, "No, no! Your subordinate does not dare! Men, quickly put him in prison! "
As soon as he said that, the guards immediately pushed the Grand General out. The Grand General's arm was completely deformed, and even though these guards were ordinary people, the Grand General did not dare to struggle.
Lu An's strength just now was enough to tell him that killing him was as easy as flipping his hand.
Seeing the Grand General being taken away, Lu An's red eyes gradually disappeared, and the oppressive aura in the room gradually dissipated. Everyone couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Only then did they realize that their clothes were already drenched.
"The position of Grand General is vacant. Liu Huairen will temporarily take over until someone else is sent over." Lu An looked at the crowd and announced. He then looked at Liu Huairen and said, "You can make the decision now."
Liu Huairen was stunned. He didn't expect Lu An to be the Vice City Lord of Purple Lake City. He knelt down and kowtowed to Lu An before standing up and speaking loudly, "Pass down my orders. Gather 100,000 soldiers in Guangyu City and head to the number two garrison in the northeast!"
"Yes, sir!" The soldier beside him immediately replied. He turned around and ran to pass on the order.
After relaying the message, Liu Huairen immediately turned to the City Lord and asked, "Where is the Military Advisor?"
"Military Advisor?" The City Lord was stunned. He hurriedly said, "I'll find him for you right now!"
After being frightened, the City Lord acted quickly. In just a short while, the Military Advisor was dragged into the room. However, the Military Advisor's clothes were disheveled. He reeked of alcohol and women's fragrance. His face was stained with rouge. Liu Huairen and the rest immediately frowned.
Liu Huairen, Nie Han, and the Chu couple clenched their fists tightly and glared at him. They were training hard at the frontlines, ready to sacrifice their lives for the country at any time. Yet, these people were here indulging in debauchery. It was already morning and they still hadn't woken up. They were the scum of the country!
"Wake him up with water!" Liu Huairen was unable to restrain his anger.
Immediately, someone brought over two buckets of water. The water in winter was cold. They poured it on the Military Advisor. The Military Advisor immediately shivered. He hugged his body and woke up!
"I'm the newly appointed Grand General!" Liu Huairen shouted angrily. "As the Military Advisor, you have such conduct. You should be executed according to military law! But I'll give you a chance. Tell me everything about the army. If there's anything missing, your head will be separated from your body immediately! "
The Military Advisor was stunned when he heard this. He quickly looked at the people on both sides and realized that the City Lord was also there. He couldn't even react to the situation. He had seen Liu Huairen before. How could he suddenly become a Grand General?
However, the truth was in front of him. Whether he believed it or not, he had to lower his head. He quickly kowtowed and said, "I'll speak. I'll tell you everything!"
Following that, the Military Advisor quickly explained the current situation of the garrison in Guang Yu City as well as the daily training. In fact, the army here was still training every day. However, although the people below had good morals, the people above all had problems with their style. The Military Advisor talked about everything in detail. He was afraid that there was something he didn't say.
Most of the Military Advisor's words were already known to everyone. Soon, the people around them became impatient. Just as Liu Huairen was about to say something, the Military Advisor suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh right, half a month ago, someone from above gave us an order for the Grand General to personally investigate something!"
Investigate something?
Everyone in the room was stunned. Even the City Lord was the same. They had never heard of this before.
"What's the matter?" Liu Huairen immediately asked.
The Military Advisor looked around and said hesitantly, "This matter is very confidential. Only the Grand General and I know about it. There are … too many people here."
Liu Huairen was stunned. The City Lord beside him suddenly stood up and berated loudly, "This is my territory. If I ask you to speak, then speak. Can't I listen?"
"Shut up!" Liu Huairen suddenly berated loudly, causing the City Lord to shut up!
Liu Huairen's expression was solemn as he said, "A secret is a secret. Other than people with a higher position than me, no one can listen to it. Other than City Lord Lu, everyone else get out! "
Everyone in the room was stunned when they heard this, including Nie Han and the Chu couple. However, the three of them were the first to stand up and walk out without hesitation.
Seeing this, the others also hurriedly walked out. Soon, the door was closed. Only Liu Huairen, the Military Advisor, and Lu An were left in the room.
"Speak. What's the matter!" Liu Huairen said loudly.
"It's like this!" The Military Advisor glanced at the two of them, stood up, and whispered in front of them, "Half a month ago, there was a secret order from above. It said that some sects were involved in this war. Once the sects joined, things would become very complicated. It was said that the sects' movements were on our side. Therefore, the people above sent the Grand General to investigate which sect it was. "
"How did he investigate?" Liu Huairen frowned and asked.
"He left Shang Qi's border and infiltrated the enemy's camp. It was said that some of the sects were on the northeast battlefront." The Military Advisor quickly said.
"Did he go?" Liu Huairen asked in a deep voice.
"He didn't go." The Military Advisor immediately said, "The Grand General didn't go at all. When the people above asked about the results of the investigation, the Grand General made it up. He either said that the investigation was ongoing or that there were no results.
Hearing this, Liu Huairen's face immediately became gloomy. This was no small matter. Although he was not a Heavenly Master, he knew how big the impact of a sect's involvement was. They had to find out which sect it was and then cooperate with the enemy sects to deal with it. Otherwise, the war would be even more difficult.
"Someone has to investigate!" Liu Huairen said in a deep voice, "But this person has to be trustworthy. Moreover, this person has to be strong enough to break into the enemy's camp and come out unscathed."
At this point, Liu Huairen looked up at the door and shouted, "Invite Nie Han in!"
Immediately, Nie Han, who had been waiting at the door, walked in. Liu Huairen quickly told Nie Han about this matter. Nie Han's body shook, and he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and prepare. We'll leave in the afternoon!"
