Left and Right Commanders
The burly man wore heavy armor, carried a spear on his back, and had a sword at his waist. The aura he gave off was extremely wild. He was like a mighty army that was ready to pounce at any moment.
Chu Xingyun stared at him for a long time, and then he took a step forward and arrived before the burly man.
The burly man's expression suddenly changed when he saw Chu Xingyun approach. Just when he was about to bow, he heard Chu Xingyun's voice clearly, "You shook your head slightly when I finished speaking earlier. Clearly, you didn't agree with my words, but you didn't stand out after I asked you about it. You even wanted to avoid it …"
Chu Xing Yun's perception was extremely sharp. He could see everything in the main hall, including everyone and everything. Of course, he was aware of every move of this tall and sturdy man.
"Based on your words and actions, you definitely have a different opinion about my question. Why don't you share it with everyone?" Chu Xingyun did not give off an oppressive aura, so he spoke very casually.
Surprise suddenly surged out from the burly man's eyes when he heard Chu Xingyun's words. But very soon, he shook his head with a bitter smile and said frankly, "Originally, I didn't want to say too much. Since pavilion master Luo Yun has noticed something, then please listen to me!"
As he spoke, a fiery aura actually surged out from the burly man, breaking the silence and causing everyone's hearts to tremble violently. They could not help but listen seriously.
"After the bloody battle ends, the eighteen ancient cities and dynasties will definitely suffer the greedy eyes of the Daluo Golden Sect and Heaven Hall. This battle is unavoidable, and no one can avoid it." The burly man stared at Chu Xingyun as he spoke tirelessly.
"In this constant state of fear, I often think that if you control the eighteen ancient cities and the eighteen empires and forcefully fend off the invasion of the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Firmament Hall, then this vast domain will completely merge into one. There will be no distinction between you and me, and everyone will be able to live in peace and contentment."
"But …"
All of a sudden, the burly man's tone changed abruptly. He raised his voice and said, "For thousands of years, the Ancient Star Sect and the Wanjian Pavilion have been in a disadvantageous position. They have only been willing to defend themselves. Now that the situation has changed, why can't we take the initiative to attack the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace and take all their resources for ourselves?"
"Even the high and mighty Jiuhan Temple is the same. Why can't we attack the Jiuhan Temple, step into the Endless Snow Domain, and cut through the ice with our swords and become the strongest overlord in the Northern Wilderness Region?"
Hiss — —
When the crowd heard the burly man's words, they all gasped. His words were so sharp. Not only did he want to attack the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace, but he also wanted to step into the Jiuhan Temple and fight for the position of the overlord of the Northern Wilderness.
Any one of these two ideas could make ordinary people tremble in fear. They did not even dare to think about it!
The burly man saw the shocked expressions on the crowd's faces, but his expression became even more fervent. He looked straight at Chu Xingyun and said proudly, without the restraint from before, "Those who follow the army are real men. They should wave their swords in anger and establish a hegemony that will last for tens of thousands of years. Even if they fail to win, even if they return with their bodies in battle, so what?"
"Instead of living a mediocre life, I'd rather go to the battlefield and kill my enemies. I'd rather shed my head and shed my blood. Even if I die on the battlefield in the end and my head is separated from my body, I will absolutely not regret it. I only hope that the people of the future can still remember my name and everything that I've done. Every time they talk about it, they can feel my iron will!"
As his voice fell, the burly man's aura reached its peak. He and Chu Xingyun looked at each other for a long time. Without warning, Chu Xingyun asked, "What's your name?"
"This general is Ye Ming." The burly man did not dare to hide anything. He raised his head and saw Chu Xingyun nodding at him. Then, he turned around and asked the general of the Subduing Star Guards, "And what's your name?"
"This general is Su Hanfeng." The general of the Subduing Star Guards immediately replied. Faintly, he glanced at the burly man and found that the latter was also full of doubts. He did not know what Chu Xingyun meant.
The other generals of the Subduing Star Guards were also puzzled. But before they could say anything, Chu Xingyun had already returned to his seat and said in a solemn tone, "From today onwards, Ye Ming will be the left general of the Subduing Star Guards and Su Hanfeng will be the right general. The former will be in charge of offense while the latter will be in charge of defense. You can deploy the 180,000 Subduing Star Guards at will and only answer to me."
Weng!
Such a sudden appointment shocked everyone. As the people involved, Ye Ming and Su Hanfeng were even more shocked. The two of them were the generals, one on the left and one on the right, and only answer to Chu Xingyun?
"The Eighteen Imperial Cities are currently in chaos and urgently need to be controlled. We must use force to suppress them. In this way, the position of the general is naturally indispensable. Whoever can answer my question will be appointed as the general." Chu Xingyun spoke out to answer everyone's doubts. His question was both a doubt and a test.
"Su Hanfeng's answer took the overall situation into consideration. He pondered deeply and was suitable for commanding the defensive fortifications. As for Ye Ming's answer, it contained sharpness and lofty aspirations. He only wanted to slaughter his way to the top. He was especially suitable for rushing through the battlefield. The two of you, one to attack and one to defend, is the most suitable." When Chu Xingyun spoke, he was extremely satisfied.
Originally, he only wanted to choose one person, but Ye Ming and Su Hanfeng's answers could be said to be perfect and sharp. If the 180,000 Star Suppressing Guards were handed over to the two of them, they would be able to display their advantage.
"Pavilion Master's means are really unpredictable. I, Ye Ming, will not disappoint Pavilion Master's expectations. Even if I have to be smashed to pieces, I will also establish a hegemony for Wanjian Pavilion!" After Ye Ming came back to his senses, he was trembling because of excitement. He knelt down heavily on both knees, making a muffled sound that was transmitted to everyone's ears.
"Su Hanfeng is also the same. I will not disappoint Pavilion Master's appreciation!" Su Hanfeng also knelt down, his face full of surprise and emotion. Every word came from his heart and there was no falsehood.
"Pavilion Master is righteous. Please accept my bow!" At this time, the remaining 16 Star Suppressing Guards knelt down one after another. Everyone's eyes were filled with passion. A powerful aura bloomed, as if it was going to smash the roof and rush to the top of the sky.
They had seen Chu Xingyun's unfathomable means.
They had also seen Chu Xingyun's ambition and strategizing.
Since the establishment of the Ancient Star Sect, there were very few people who had these two qualities. Moreover, in this chaotic world, only those who were truly wise could achieve something.
