Chapter 194: Questioning

~7 min read 1,353 words

Once Qi Lin stepped back, Ye Cang came before Ge Xiaolun, looking at him with an expressionless face.

And as Ge Xiaolun looked into Ye Cang's emotionless eyes, a wave of fear unexpectedly surged in his heart.

How could there not be even the slightest shred of emotion in a human's eyes?

Not to mention any positive emotions.

In Ye Cang's eyes, there were not even those negative emotions.

For a moment, Ge Xiaolun was stunned.

But just at this moment, Ye Cang spoke.

"Ge Xiaolun, you wanted to kill me on the eve of battle; do you know what kind of crime this is!"

After hearing this, Ge Xiaolun sneered.

"Crime?"

"What crime does I, Ge Xiaolun, have!"

"I, Ge Xiaolun, have no crime! That so-called charge is something you forced upon me; this is your idea, your dictatorship!"

After hearing this, Ye Cang didn't even glance at Ge Xiaolun and continued, "I could have had Qi Lin cut off your head directly to end this farce."

"But I thought, if I let you die without knowing why, then I really would be in the wrong!"

"So Ge Xiaolun, listen well!"

"You broke into the army on the eve of the great war and spoke such words; sentencing you for disrupting military morale is not the least bit excessive!"

"You also launched an attack on me; I am the Chief Engineer but also the Commander-in-Chief of this war. Launching an attack on a Commander-in-Chief, calling you a traitor is also not the least bit excessive!"

"These two crimes, whichever one is brought out, are enough to sentence you to death!"

"Furthermore, you have dragged the Xiongbing Lian into the abyss; not one of these people will survive!"

Having finished speaking, a Power Sword appeared in Ye Cang's hand.

A layer of faint Blue Light Energy Shield immediately appeared on the Power Sword.

"Ge Xiaolun, say your final last words!" Ye Cang said coldly.

Looking at the expressionless Ye Cang, Ge Xiaolun opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but that he didn't know what to say.

Ye Cang was determined to kill him; it seemed that whatever he said was useless...

The more he said, the more it would only expose his own ugly appearance.

It was just so frustrating!

His own Galaxy Power hadn't been used yet; if he were given the chance to use the Galaxy Power, he would definitely have no problem!

Thinking of this, Ge Xiaolun turned his head to look at the group of soldiers behind him.

It was all his fault for not having the ability to stop Ye Cang; these soldiers would likely all sacrifice themselves for this meaningless war in a moment...

Ye Cang... Ye Cang...

Just as Ge Xiaolun was about to accept his fate, Du Qiangwei actually spoke.

"Ye Cang, you are winning unfairly!" Du Qiangwei said.

"If you have the ability, make a move yourself; having your subordinates make a move, what kind of ability is that!"

"You should make a move yourself and defeat Xiao Lun!"

Ye Cang, holding the Power Sword, was completely dumbfounded after hearing this.

This woman Du Qiangwei, is there something wrong with her brain?

How could she say these words with such righteous indignation?

An ordinary person couldn't say this!

This is a life-or-death war! It's not playing house.

And Du Qiangwei, looking at the stunned Ye Cang, said again, "Ye Cang, let Xiao Lun fight you fair and square!"

"I believe the winner will definitely be Xiao Lun!"

"Ye Cang, do you dare!"

"I don't dare." Ye Cang answered decisively. "This is war, not child's play, you idiot!"

Having finished speaking, Ye Cang held the sword with both hands, preparing to execute the two of them right then and there.

But just as the sword was about to fall, Ye Cang's heart skipped a beat.

He suddenly remembered one thing.

That was the Void Engine and Anti-Void Power on Ge Xiaolun.

It is said that that thing can overturn basic physical laws and the law of conservation of energy.

Regarding this point, Ye Cang was very interested.

Overturning basic physical laws—he had never heard of such a thing.

If basic physical laws could be overturned, then his Quantum Control might as well retire.

Besides the point of overturning laws, there was one more thing.

That was the Void.

He knew nothing about the Void; Ge Xiaolun might be able to make up for some of his lack of knowledge in this area.

What?

Isn't Kaisha by his side? Couldn't he just ask Kaisha then?

Kaisha... she couldn't be trusted.

That's how it was.

Ye Cang felt that it was more practical to rely on himself for some things.

But the problem now is, he had already said he would kill Ge Xiaolun, so stopping suddenly now won't do.

He needs a way out.

However, if there is no way out, it doesn't matter; there is still Hua Ye later, and besides, he still has the special bait to capture Hua Ye.

Hmm... killing Ge Xiaolun is not a big problem.

After making the decision.

Ye Cang no longer hesitated, and the Power Sword in his hand slashed down without hesitation, heading straight for Ge Xiaolun's head.

If this sword strikes, death is certain.

Ge Xiaolun also closed his eyes, looking resigned to his fate.

Just at this final moment, a shout suddenly reached Ye Cang's ears.

"Chief Engineer! You, you stop!"

At this moment, the Power Sword was only a few millimeters away from Ge Xiaolun's head.

Ge Xiaolun could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within the Power Sword.

If this sword goes down, he, this Galaxy Power, probably won't be able to withstand it!

Come to think of it, why did that voice just now sound so familiar?

Before Ge Xiaolun could think much, Ye Cang's voice had already sounded.

"Liu Chuang."

"What are you doing?"

When Ge Xiaolun heard Liu Chuang's name, he immediately turned his head to look.

And the sight of Liu Chuang now made Ge Xiaolun's eyes widen.

He saw that Liu Chuang was wearing the same exoskeleton armor as those soldiers, but the aura about him was completely different from before.

The previous Liu Chuang, although he had undergone training, always had a rogue-like air about him; this rogue-like air was deep in his bones and could not be erased no matter what.

But what about now?

That rogue-like air had actually disappeared, replaced by the unique aura belonging to a soldier.

For a moment, Ge Xiaolun was left staring in a daze.

Liu Chuang's change is really huge... he is simply like a different person.

Why has he changed so much? Is it because he joined Ye Cang's team?

Before Ge Xiaolun could think much, Liu Chuang had already hurried to the front of Ye Cang, completely ignoring the melancholic-looking Qing Long.

Qing Long only had one thought at this moment.

His guard's career is over.

Liu Chuang arrived in front of Ye Cang and first saluted.

Then he said: "I'm sorry, Chief Engineer! I shouldn't have violated orders!"

"But, Ge Xiaolun is my brother, I cannot watch you kill him!"

"Chief Engineer, I beg you to spare Xiao Lun and give him a chance!"

When he said this, Liu Chuang was already streaming with tears.

After hearing this, Ye Cang shook his head.

"Liu Chuang, a country has its laws, and a family has its rules!"

"Ge Xiaolun committed treason and shook the morale of the army; these two charges, whether in ancient times or modern times, mean certain death!"

"Why should I spare him? Liu Chuang! If I spare him today, then there will be a second person, a third person, and even more people who will trample on the rules!"

"By then, the rules will become mere decorations, and anyone will be able to trample on them."

"You tell me, when that time comes, can this army still be called an army!"

These questions from Ye Cang left Liu Chuang speechless.
