Chapter 943
Sengoku curled his lip and said nothing, as he was indeed quite idle at the moment.
"Alright, stop joking around. Let's hurry over and find that guy Sun Yixiao. I really don't know what he's thinking, actually getting into an argument with Saski," Sun He urged.
Sengoku shrugged his shoulders and also began walking toward the interior of Desa City.
Inside Desa City.
Sun Yixiao sat on a chair, supervising his subordinates as they helped the commoners rebuild their homes.
He appeared carefree, but a trace of sorrow flickered between his brows.
"Grand Commander Sun, it really has been a long time!" Sun He, Sengoku, and the others walked in.
Sun Yixiao turned his head to look over and smiled: "So it's Marshal Sengoku and Staff Officer Sun. What brings you two here?"
Sengoku sat down with a chuckle on a wooden stool: "Don't call me Marshal anymore. I've already resigned; I'm just an ordinary Imperial Guard now!"
Sun He spoke directly: "You two are really something. One is in a state of retirement, and the other is still arguing with the current Grand Marshal. I have to admit, your boldness really makes me look at you with new eyes!"
"Ahem!"
Sengoku rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "Well, the fact that I could come here with you this time is already an exception. After all, I'm retired, and I dare not meddle in the struggles of you people."
"Tch!"
Sun He rolled his eyes.
"Staff Officer Sun, I am very grateful that you were able to come and take Tang Mingge into custody. I, Sun Yixiao, will keep this kindness in my heart forever. If there is anything you need from me in the future, please feel free to command me. I will surely go through fire and water without hesitation!" Sun Yixiao said, cupping his hands.
"Hmm, rest assured. We will certainly uphold the law impartially; we will not wrong a good person, nor will we indulge a bad one!"
Sun He said sternly: "But do you really not intend to take the heads of Wang Lufei and Luo? This is a task given to you by the Imperial Court!"
Upon hearing the words "Imperial Court," Sun Yixiao's pupils constricted instantly, and deep within his eyes flashed an extremely intense sense of disgust!
"Wang Lufei and Luo are heroes who saved this city. If we, the Imperial Guard, take the heroes away, it will cause a huge loss for the public. This matter must absolutely not be done, otherwise, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."
Sun Yixiao said in a deep voice.
Hearing such firm words from Sun Yixiao, Sun He and Sengoku looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
Sun Yixiao's personality is really so similar to Shangguan Kuzan's!
But a person with this kind of personality has the hardest time getting by in the Imperial Court.
"Grand Commander Sun, you must think this through. Even if these two have done things that benefit the commoners, they are still fugitives wanted by the Imperial Court.
Once you let them leave, they will be able to remain at large, and there will be more victims by then!"
Sun He advised.
Sun Yixiao still shook his head: "I have already made the decision to let them go by using dice. You don't need to persuade me anymore. If we capture them, it will only cause more commoners to be harmed. I will absolutely not agree to it!"
"What? Such a big matter, and you just used dice to make a decision? Grand Commander Sun, you aren't joking with us, are you?"
Sun He slapped the table and said angrily.
Although Sengoku didn't want to say anything, he couldn't help but frown.
With these two big shots unhappy, this little adjutant Li Jian suddenly felt the pressure mounting.
Sun Yixiao sighed and then said: "Since you don't agree, why don't we play another round! As long as the dice in my hand roll a number other than 1, I will go and kill Wang Lufei and Luo."
"How about it?"
Sun He and Sengoku looked at each other, then looked at Sun Yixiao's serious expression, and finally nodded: "Fine!"
Sun He picked up the dice cup in front of Sun Yixiao, shaking it with ease, a faint smile curling at the corner of his mouth, as if victory were already in his grasp. Bang!
423 Targeting ranking list formed!
Sun He slammed the dice cup onto the table and looked at Sun Yixiao with a grin: "Grand Commander Sun, you've lost this time for sure!"
When Sun He lifted the dice cup, it revealed the die inside.
It was exactly six.
"Six! Grand Commander Sun, you have nothing more to say this time, right?"
Sun Yixiao stood up: "A bet is a bet! Men, assemble!"
In a moment's time, a full four thousand elite soldiers gathered here, waiting for Sun Yixiao's orders.
"You are all elites I have drawn from various units. Today, we will avenge our fallen brothers and tear those two villains, Wang Lufei and Luo, into ten thousand pieces!!!"
Sun Yixiao shouted with his arms raised, then turned and walked toward the center of the town!
The remaining soldiers also roared one after another, following closely behind Sun Yixiao!
Meanwhile, at the City Lord's Manor.
Under the service of the maids, Rebei put on a set of luxurious attire.
She was already beautiful and moving, and with this gorgeous clothing, she looked as pretty as a fairy.
"Miss Rebei, you are so beautiful!"
The maids praised her one after another.
Upon hearing this, a blush appeared on Rebei's pretty face, and she said shyly: "Not at all, wearing such complicated clothes is really troublesome."
The maids burst into laughter upon hearing this.
After laughing, one maid asked: "Miss Rebei, today is the day you show your face to the commoners; you can't keep wearing your armor, right? That would be too plain, and this outfit of yours is quite good-looking!"
"Uh... is that so!" Rebei's pretty face turned even redder.
She had noticed it herself.
When wearing armor, she was indeed very mighty and imposing, like a female war god.
However, after putting on this outfit, her femininity seemed even more intense.
Especially this outfit, which was designed to be very sexy at the chest, waist, and hips.
It made people's imaginations run wild!
Rebei thought of a saying: A woman adorns herself for the one who appreciates her.
If Mr. Wang Lufei saw her like this, he would probably be captivated, right?
"Oh my, Miss Rebei, why are you still daydreaming!" The maid beside her couldn't help but laugh: "Hurry and let us comb your hair; don't miss the auspicious time!"
"Also, Miss Rebei, this is a letter sent to you by a one-legged guy, saying you must open it personally!"
Another maid ran up quickly and handed Rebei a letter.
"A one-legged guy?"
Rebei blinked her eyes and opened the letter in confusion.
This letter was written to Rebei by Lu Jushi.
【Dear daughter Rebei, open this personally: When you open this letter, I fear you will be facing the commoners as the heir to the City Lord.
I hope that this time facing the commoners, you can display the demeanor and charm of a City Lord's heir!
Remember, you represent not just yourself, but the honor of the entire family!
I am a sinner; if the commoners knew you were my daughter, I fear the prestige you have just established would vanish in an instant!
Therefore, from now on, I am no longer your father, and we should not meet again in the future, because I am already a thorough sinner!
I hope that no matter what position you reach, you can maintain your original intention and seek welfare for the commoners!】
After finishing the letter, Rebei's tears could not stop flowing.
She covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably!
Her own father had nearly died in battle to protect this city, but now, even though he could enjoy a better life, he still chose to stay away from the world, and even dared not contact her.
"The meat is here!"
In the house where Wang Lufei and the others were hiding in the suburbs of Desa City.
Zhuge Lanqi and Luo Bin Ke brought over roasted wild boar meat, filling the table, the aroma wafting everywhere!
"Wow! So much meat!"
Wang Lufei, who had just woken up, saw so much meat, his eyes shining and drool flowing.
He couldn't wait to reach out and take a piece of pork, put it in his mouth, and chew, his eyes squinting into crescent moons, feeling extremely happy.
"Zhuge Lanqi, did you bring any wine?" Liu Suolong licked his lips.
"Of course I did. I specially prepared some 'Burning Knife' for you; this kind of strong liquor should suit you well!"
Zhuge Lanqi brought over a wine jar and opened it, and immediately a pungent wine aroma drifted out.
"Thank you so much. During these days of healing, I haven't had a proper drink for a long time~" Liu Suolong rubbed his palms excitedly, then picked up the wine pot and poured it into his mouth.
A bottle of 'Burning Knife' went down his throat, and it immediately made his whole body tremble from the heat.
That hearty and refreshing feeling was simply fantastic!
