Chapter 314: Dissolve
Ge Xiaolun did not dare to say a word more after being scolded by Ye Cang; he stood there with his head bowed, looking like a primary school student who had made a mistake.
After Ye Cang finished saying these things, he looked at Lianfeng again.
"Lianfeng, this was your order, right!"
"Concealing military intelligence, you're really something! Tell me, what were you thinking!"
"When you were concealing the military intelligence, did you use your brain at all, or were you just thinking about how to cover this matter up?!"
Lianfeng was not like Ge Xiaolun, who did not dare to say a word.
Immediately, she said: "Ye Cang, I am the Commander-in-Chief of the Black Troop, and you are the Chief Engineer; our statuses are not much different."
"What right do you have to talk to me like this! How was I only thinking about concealing it!"
"I was also trying to find a way to solve it! And isn't your Firmament very powerful? How come it can't even block a single Triangle Body Civilization now!"
Lianfeng's words made Ye Cang widen his eyes instantly, a flash of surprise appearing in his gaze.
His anger was feigned, but his surprise was not.
He was truly startled.
How could Lianfeng say such righteous words?
Ye Cang did not want to say anything more to Lianfeng.
He turned around and walked outside.
As he walked, he said: "Save these words of yours for the military tribunal and tell them to the judge."
"I have no authority to deal with you; I am only the Chief Engineer. I am taking you to see that person now and let that person make the decision."
While speaking, Ye Cang had already walked outside.
Chixiao had already been waiting there for a long time.
Ge Xiaolun let out an "oh" and hurriedly followed.
Lianfeng, however, felt a shock in her heart; she had originally thought that Ye Cang would handle this matter, but she had not expected it to actually alarm that person.
This was her first time seeing that person.
To tell the truth, General Du Kaao did not even have the qualifications to see that person; Huang Lao was responsible for all coordination and reporting.
But today...
Before Lianfeng could think any further, Ye Cang's voice came over again.
"Hurry up, don't waste time!"
After hearing this, Lianfeng stopped overthinking, hurriedly came outside and boarded Chixiao, and at the same time, Sun Wukong followed as well.
A few minutes later, Chixiao landed.
Ye Cang brought Lianfeng, Ge Xiaolun, and Sun Wukong to the elder's office.
Arriving at the elder's office, Ye Cang knocked on the door lightly.
"Who is it?" The elder's voice came from inside the office.
"It's me, Ye Cang," Ye Cang said.
As the words fell, the office door opened immediately, and the elder appeared before everyone.
When the elder saw Ye Cang, he was overjoyed.
"Xiao Cang, you haven't come to see me for a long time. How do you have the time to think of this old man today?"
"Tell me, are you here to ask me to approve funds? Or to check on the development of the outer provinces?"
Lianfeng looked at the familiar way the elder and Ye Cang interacted, and her heart skipped a beat.
It was over now.
Ye Cang might say all sorts of bad things about her in a moment.
He would probably try every possible way to put her to death!
No, she had to...
After Ye Cang heard the elder's words, he sighed.
"Sigh, it's not that," Ye Cang said. "Let's go inside and talk."
The elder nodded and returned to the office to sit down.
Ye Cang walked in first, and at the same time said to the few people behind him: "All of you come in, and the last one in close the door."
Subsequently, everyone walked into the office.
"Ge Xiaolun, you tell it yourself, what exactly happened! What occurred specifically," Ye Cang said without looking back.
"Lest you say I'm exaggerating or have ill intentions when I tell it, this time you say it yourselves!"
The tone of Ye Cang's voice made the elder frown slightly.
Such an angry tone was very rare!
Counting them up, this seemed to be the first time Ye Cang had spoken in such an angry tone.
The elder understood that the Black Troop must have caused trouble.
And a massive disaster at that, otherwise Ye Cang would not be like this.
"What happened, tell us, Ge Xiaolun!"
The elder's tone at this moment was clearly no different from before, yet the moment he spoke, the temperature in the entire office immediately dropped by several degrees.
Except for Ye Cang, everyone felt a tremendous pressure.
This pressure made it difficult for them to breathe for a moment.
Ge Xiaolun adjusted himself, and only then was he able to speak.
Very quickly.
Ge Xiaolun finished recounting everything.
To everyone's surprise, the old man did not get angry after hearing this; he merely looked at Lianfeng and Ge Xiaolun with an expressionless face.
The old man first said to Lianfeng: "As a commander, making a judgment error and failing to report what you knew—the former is excusable, but for the latter, I would be justified in having you executed by firing squad!"
"The situation has reached such a serious point, yet you still want to be stubborn!"
Lianfeng did not speak after hearing this, but instead lowered her head.
Ye Cang could talk back a couple of times himself, but she was not quite capable of that.
His aura was too oppressive; she did not dare to.
After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Ge Xiaolun.
"Ge Xiaolun, although your mistake was unintentional, you have indeed dragged Earth into a new war. Execution is not necessary, but..."
Having said this, the old man took a deep breath.
"I won't say any more unnecessary words. Lianfeng, Ge Xiaolun, from this moment on, Xiong Bing Lian is hereby disbanded and its establishment deleted; the remaining personnel of Xiong Bing Lian are to be integrated into the Four Great Legions."
"Lianfeng, you have been busy for so long; even if there is no merit, there is at least hard work. From now on, just retire in Beizhixing and live the life of an ordinary person."
"As for you, Ge Xiaolun... you are temporarily suspended to go home and reflect for two years; we will discuss other matters after two years."
Sun Wukong, who was following along on the side, quietly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the old man's decision.
His purpose in coming along was that he was afraid Ge Xiaolun and Lianfeng would be fed lead.
Fortunately, the two of them did not have to eat that.
Ye Cang had no objections to the old man's handling of the matter.
Who knows if Lianfeng would resurrect even if she died?
Controlling her directly was the best choice.
And Ge Xiaolun, a Third Generation God Body.
Currently, the only people on Earth who could kill him, besides himself, were the five legion commanders.
But killing him outright would not do either, as Ge Xiaolun's background was there after all.
He was truly of impeccable pedigree.
His Ge family had served in the military for generations, protecting their home and defending their country.
His father was even a veteran... considering all these factors, suspending Ge Xiaolun for two years first was the way to go.
Upon hearing the old man's decision, Lianfeng's mentality completely exploded.
She, a Nuo Star genetic Engineer and Commander-in-Chief of Xiong Bing Lian, had now just become an ordinary commoner?!
She could not accept it; she truly could not accept it!
Moreover...
Lianfeng immediately raised a protest.
"I am not convinced! Why is Ye Cang not held responsible!"
"His Firmament did not block the Triangle Body at all!"
But the old man's next sentence left Lianfeng speechless.
"If you are not convinced, that is fine."
"If you can resolve the matter of the Triangle Body, I, this old man, will treat it as if this incident never happened!"
"My word is gold; I keep my promises!"
