After saying that, the soldier looked at Liu Sanniang and met her calm eyes. For some reason, he felt guilty. He couldn’t help but say, “Regardless of whether you’re a real psychic or not, 1 hope you can be lucky enough to survive this war.”
With that, the soldier turned around and left.
Someone caught up to him and stopped him. He asked angrily, “What’s going on? I’m already so old that I can’t even see properly. How can you let me be the vanguard? If 1 go, I’ll die.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Why should we go to the front line? It takes time for me to cast the spell. If 1 go to the front line, no one will protect me. How can 1 cast the spell?”
The soldier said coldly, “This is General’s order. If anyone is dissatisfied, go to General and tell him.”
No matter how dissatisfied these people were, the soldier was unmoved.
Many people had already started to walk towards Zhou Heng’s tent.
They squeezed in like a swarm of bees and shouted, “Elder Zhou, you can’t send me to be the vanguard. I can’t cast my spells…”
Zhou Hengsheng searched the crowd but could not find Liu Sanniang. He frowned.
Looking at these people who were afraid of death, Zhou Hengsheng felt disdainful. However, he did not want these people to die in the first place. Therefore, when these people proposed to be reassigned, Zhou Hengsheng agreed.
He looked at everyone with a fake smile and said, “Previously, 1 didn’t know that it was inconvenient for you to cast a spell in the front line. Now that I know, I can reassign you. I have no grudges with you, so I naturally won’t force you to a dead end. If there’s anything you are dissatisfied with, just tell me. I’ll reconsider the arrangements.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and left the tent in satisfaction.
After they left, Zhou Yunyi mocked coldly, “These people are cowards. They’re really more disgusting than worms.”
Zhou Hengsheng smiled. “There are a few people who didn’t come.”
Zhou Yunyi frowned. “Who didn’t come?”
Zhou Hengsheng flipped open the register book and said calmly, “Liu Sannaing, Chuyan, Hu Yu, and Liu Yuanyuan. There’s also a man called Qing Mu, who claims to be a master in spells, and a middle-aged woman called Bai Anya.”
Zhou Yunyi frowned. “Is Liu Yuanyuan a woman?”
One familiar name could be a coincidence, but the two familiar names were definitely not.
Zhou Hengsheng nodded. “It’s a woman.”
Zhou Yunyi’s expression was a little ugly. “Second Uncle, back then, the person who killed me was called Liu Sanniang. At that time, she was just a weak little girl. What did she look like now? When did she come? I actually don’t remember at all.”
Zhou Hengsheng frowned. “In the afternoon, she was the one who raised questions. Didn’t you recognize her?”
Zhou Yunyi was even more shocked. She shook her head. “I, I didn’t recognize her.”
Zhou Yunyi was a little panicked. She recalled the fear of being crushed by Liu Sanniang. Her former enemy was beside her, but she actually did not recognize her. Even if she was unwilling to admit it, it did not change the fact that Liu Sanniang was powerful.
Zhou Hengsheng thought of the day Zhou Yunyi returned to the sect with a broken soul and felt a little complicated. However, soon, he was no longer worried. His eyes darkened as he said, “Don’t worry. 1 arranged for her to join the vanguard team. She’s in the camp now. She won’t dare to do anything to you. It’s uncertain if she can come back alive.”
The vanguard team was equivalent to a suicide team.
Zhou Yunyi also thought of this. She nodded. “That snake followed her, and I have a blood feud with that snake. I’m afraid the blood feud won’t be resolved easily. Between her and me, one will die.”
Zhou Hengsheng’s expression turned cold. “What’s there to worry about? As vanguards, even if they can escape death, they will be seriously injured. At that time, it will be a piece of cake to get rid of them.”
Zhou Yunyi nodded.
Zhou Hengsheng smiled. “Don’t think too much. Go and rest well. We have to set up the array formation tomorrow. We have to win this battle. We’ve been suppressed by the Cloud Breaking Sect for thousands of years. I’m afraid the people of the Xia Dynasty have long forgotten that our Kongtong Sect is in the Xia Dynasty.”
“Now that the war has broken out, the Cloud Breaking Sect abandoned the Xia Dynasty. Who can save the people? Only our Kongtong Sect can.”
This battle concerned the revival of the sect. Therefore, no matter how many disciples died, they had to win.
Zhou Hengsheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Yunyi. “It took a lot of effort to save you. Remember that you will always owe Kongtong Sect. Without my instructions, don’t act rashly.”
Zhou Yunyi nodded. “Don’t worry, Second Uncle. I won’t forget.”
When she left the sect back then, she was already considered a sinner of the sect. After she died, she was lucky to have a mystic technique to save her life. Now, she could live again because of the Kongtong Sect. Otherwise, she would have died long ago.
Now that her life belonged to Kongtong Sect, if she wanted to live, she had to be obedient.
“You can leave.”
Zhou Hengsheng waved his hand. He originally wanted to wait for Liu Sanniang and the others to come and beg him. At that time, he would humiliate her.
He had never heard of a woman who didn’t belong to any sect. How dare she challenge him? Since she was stubborn and didn’t come to beg him, he would wait and watch her miserable ending.
As the night gradually darkened, the army camp became lively. It was time for dinner.
When Hu Yu saw the big pot of food being served, she lost her appetite. There were many beans mixed in the rice. All the dishes were mixed together. It was not appetizing and did not smell good. Hu Yu took a look and waved her hand. “I’m not hungry. I’m not eating.”
Liu Yuanyuan placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Hu Yu. “There’s a fierce battle tomorrow. If you don’t eat, you will starve.”
Hu Yu was the most afraid of starving. She gritted her teeth and said, “That detestable Elder Zhou is clearly doing it on purpose. He wants Venerable Liu to beg him..”
