Brother-in-law, this was what a brother-in-law called his wife's little brother. Wan Lanxin and Yang Wu both called each other brother and sister. He said this to tell Yang Wu and the people around him that Wan Lanxin would be his woman.
Wu Yigang was the first to react and smiled, "Then congratulations Great Commander, we'll recognize you as our little brother-in-law."
"Not bad, little brother-in-law is quite spirited." Huo Dongshui said in a somewhat effeminate voice.
You Zha Xi and Liu Liling both smiled and agreed. No one dared to argue with Fen Yaoyang.
"Sister Lanxin, is this true?" Yang Wu asked with a face of disbelief. He didn't know why, but his heart faintly ached.
Wan Lanxin didn't reply to Yang Wu's words. Instead, she turned around to look at Fen Yaoyang and said, "Great Commander, please don't make a fuss. Thank you."
Her words clearly hit back at Fen Yaoyang. She didn't have any feelings for him at all.
Fen Yaoyang raised his eyebrows and said, "Lanxin, you really have the heart to reject me?"
It had to be said that Fen Yaoyang's every move was quite charming. It was a pity that Wan Lanxin's heart already belonged to someone else. He was too handsome and couldn't move her heart.
She said with certainty, "We're just friends and comrades. That's all!"
"Wan Lanxin, that's enough. Who do you think you are? For the Great Commander to like you is your good fortune. You actually dare to not put the Great Commander in your eyes. You're too hateful!" Liu Liling took the opportunity to scold Wan Lanxin.
Right now, Liu Liling's heart was blooming with joy. Wan Lanxin had rejected Fen Yaoyang in this situation. Wan Lanxin would definitely be abandoned. Then she still had a chance.
Wan Lanxin completely ignored Liu Liyan. She turned around and said to Yang Wu, "Little brother Wu, let's talk somewhere else."
"Lan Xin, don't be angry. I only said that it's possible. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Fen Yaoyang said with a light smile. He paused for a moment before continuing, "This little brother was able to jump from a prison slave soldier to a vice commander, so he must have some outstanding qualities. If you have any difficulties in the army in the future, you can come and find me, Fen Yaoyang. As long as it's not a big matter, everyone will give me some face. I won't hold you two up any longer. Let's go."
Fen Yaoyang's words made the final decision. The people around him swallowed their words. It could be seen that his personal charm was really strong.
This made Wan Lanxin feel a little guilty. During this period of time, Fen Yaoyang had taken care of her quite a bit. However, after she found out that he had an ulterior motive for getting close to her, she reduced her contact with him.
Yang Wu also did not think that Fen Yaoyang would be able to let go of things. If it was someone else, they would have already spoken ill of him or even started a fight. This was different from the people he had always met. He thought to himself, "This person is not easy to deal with."
Just now, he had used his strongest perception to sense that Fen Yaoyang had a trace of killing intent towards him. This killing intent seemed to be faintly discernible, but he could clearly feel it. This was definitely not fake, but the other party was still talking and laughing as he walked past. He was truly a difficult person to deal with.
… …
After Fen Yaoyang and his group walked away, You Zha Xi could not help but say, "Chief Commander, you gave them too much face. If it were up to me, you should have hung that guy up and beaten him. I believe that Wan Lanxin would not be so arrogant."
"Yes, Chief Commander, you are too good to people. I don't think she appreciates your kindness." Liu Liling fanned the flames.
"Enough, you don't have to say anymore. I know that you don't like Wan Lanxin, but she really suits my taste. However, I will not let a woman affect my state of mind. The battle for the position of Young Commander in a month is my top priority. You guys should also work hard. Don't be eliminated by other dark horses." Fen Yaoyang waved his hand and said. Then he said, "However, this Yang Wu is a bit interesting. I have heard a little about him. When you have time, Dongshui, go and find out more about him. If possible, bring him to see me."
"Yes, Chief Commander!" Huo Dongshui said respectfully.
… …
Yang Wu and Wan Lanxin found a quiet place to talk.
"Congratulations, Brother Wu!" Wan Lanxin looked at Yang Wu and congratulated him seriously.
Her congratulations were not only for Yang Wu's promotion to Deputy Commander, but also for him finally getting rid of his identity as a prison slave. This was the most important reason for her congratulations.
Originally, Yang Wu had offended a noble family, which was a branch of the royal family. Basically, it was a dead end. If he had not been strong enough and persevered unyieldingly, he would have been dead long ago. He would not be where he was today.
Therefore, the reason why Yang Wu was able to achieve what he had today was not just because of luck, but also because of his actual combat strength.
Yang Wu smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Sister Lanxin. If it were not for your help, I would not have been able to get rid of my current identity so quickly."
"Don't give me that. If I could help you, perhaps I would be even happier. Unfortunately, the help I can give you is limited." Wan Lanxin scolded jokingly. She was happy for Yang Wu from the bottom of her heart.
"No matter what, you are the person I am most grateful to." Yang Wu said very seriously.
"Is that all?" Wan Lanxin asked in return.
"Haha, as long as Sister Lanxin is willing, my life will be yours!" Yang Wu patted his chest and said very seriously.
When he was very young, he had liked Wan Lanxin, this big sister. However, he pitied the "little slug" more.
Wan Lanxin patted Yang Wu's shoulder lightly and said, "From now on, your life is mine. Nothing can happen to it without my permission."
Yang Wu's heart warmed. He smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Lanxin." After a pause, he said, "Those people seem to be extraordinary. You have to be careful in the future if you offended them because of me. I think the leader has bad intentions towards you."
"They are indeed extraordinary. They are all candidates for the position of major general. Among them, Fen Yaoyang is a future major general. He is the youngest son of the current marshal. No one can shake his position, but they won't dare to do anything to me," Wan Lanxin replied.
"He has such a strong background. The son of the marshal!" Yang Wu exclaimed.
A marshal who controlled an army like this was higher than his father's position as a count. It was no wonder that the other party had already confirmed the position of major general.
"Yes, Commander Fen's charisma is very strong. Many people are willing to follow him. His combat strength is also quite strong, so it's best if we don't offend him," Wan Lanxin said.
Yang Wu touched the bridge of his nose and muttered to himself, "How can we not offend him like this?"
After that, Yang Wu asked about Little Man.
Wan Lanxin had a backer to protect her. This backer was one of the eight lieutenant generals, so it wasn't difficult for her to have Little Man as a servant girl by her side. She also truthfully told Yang Wu about Little Man's recent situation.
Because Little Man was becoming more and more beautiful, she dressed Little Man in a more low-key way. Also, Little Man usually lived in seclusion and basically stayed in the camp. She didn't cause any trouble in the army.
However, Wan Lanxin still discovered that Little Man was different from the rest. Her strength was increasing, and she had already broken through to the realm of a mid-level warrior. However, the strength she displayed was even stronger than that of a top-level warrior.
This was the result of Little Man not having a better environment to cultivate in. If Little Man was allowed to cultivate outside, she would improve even faster.
Thus, Wan Lanxin planned to have Little Man disguise herself as a man and cultivate with her.
In addition, Xu Xiaoqiang knew about Little Man's situation. He seemed to have taken a fancy to Little Man and no longer set Wan Lanxin as his target. From time to time, he would come to find Little Man. Fortunately, he didn't do anything out of line.
After Yang Wu heard that Little Man was fine, he was relieved. Thus, he told Wan Lanxin that he was going to the challenge stage to find the rod monster. Wan Lanxin didn't stop him. She also wanted to see how much Yang Wu's strength had improved.
In this way, Yang Wu and Wan Lanxin walked side by side. Wherever they went, they immediately attracted the attention of many soldiers. The soldiers kept glancing at them. When they walked past, the soldiers began to discuss in low voices.
"Wasn't that Yang Wu and our army's second golden flower, Wan Lanxin? They're walking together openly?"
"What's wrong with that? One is a golden boy and the other is a jade girl. They look very compatible!"
"Don't you want to live anymore? Don't you know that Commander Fen already sees Wan Lanxin as his own? How could he allow others to snatch his woman? Yang Wu really doesn't know what's good for him."
"Yang Wu has been promoted to Deputy Commander. He can be considered young and promising. Wan Lanxin walking together with him might not be in any situation. Don't think too much."
"They seem to be walking in the direction of the challenge stage. Could it be that they want to go to the challenge stage? Let's follow them and take a look. "
…
The challenge stage was located in the center of the Barbarian Suppression Army. There was a large open space that had been cleared out. There were 18 challenge stages that were raised from the ground. Each challenge stage was made of extremely hard Crimson Adamantine Stone. There were also some restrictive spells that made it difficult for anyone who wasn't a King to destroy the stage.
At this moment, there were many soldiers surrounding the challenge stages to watch the battles. From time to time, there would be an uproar of surprise. It was very lively.
Out of the eighteen challenge platforms, not all of them had challenges. Currently, there were only three challenge platforms that had challenges. The most lively challenge platform was the ninth platform. That platform had the most spectators and the cheers were the loudest as well.
The ninth challenge stage was the stage where the rod monster Hong Wuduan was. He was already a Deputy Commander and his battle prowess had just reached the peak of the General Realm. He was also one of the top experts in the army. However, he was fighting on the battle technique stage instead of using his battle prowess to suppress others.
The rod monster was a very vicious person. He had a pair of snake-like triangular eyes, an aquiline nose, and a string of skulls around his neck. The front of his head was shaved, leaving only the hair on the back of his head and a long petal. He wore a snakeskin armor and held a three-section rod in his hand. His entire body emitted a demonic aura. No wonder he was called a rod monster.
Right now, he was exchanging blows with a soldier. That soldier was a Centurion who had reached the Intermediate General Realm. He had already mastered the Twelve Windchasing Swords to the point of perfection. The two of them were only exchanging blows with their battle techniques. It was very exciting.
The Stick Goblin wielded his three-section staff very quickly, and every strike of the staff carried a great deal of destructive power. He chased after the centurion, and the centurion's Meteor Sword met the attack with great speed. The two of them clashed again and again, creating bursts of intense sparks.
"The Twelve Windchasing Swords is not perfect yet. It's not enough. Get down!" The staff monster cried out in alarm and found a flaw in the opponent's defense. The three sections of the staff turned into a triangular shape and twisted the long sword out of the centurion's hand in an instant. Furthermore, the staff monster even placed it on the centurion's body to strangle him.
