Chapter 1425: Chapter 638: Sudden Upheaval (Part 3)

"What are you doing! Have you gone mad! That is the order of General Commander! Are you going to disobey General Commander’s orders!" Although being held hostage, Nian Jiachen instead yelled angrily with a fierce look.

"Hmph!"

Before Qiu Xiaoping could say anything, Xu Qingqi was the first to jump in.

"Father’s actions are too embarrassing! Why should we bow down to the Foolish Underworld? Did all our brothers die for nothing? I, Xu Qingqi, am the first to refuse!"

"Shut up! Our Rebel Army aims for righteousness and the future! Great matters are not restricted by minor details! Compared to the grand plans of the future, the present humiliation is nothing!" Nian Jiachen continued to shout loudly, but Fang Yu was completely out of the situation.

Fang Yu scratched his head, unable to help interrupting.

"Wait a minute, everyone... I don’t quite understand the situation? What exactly are you doing?"

The four ministers exchanged glances upon hearing this.

Eventually, it was Qiu Xiaoping who slowly spoke.

"Young Master Diao, by General Commander’s orders, at this moment, we four should take you down and escort you to... Foolish Underworld!"

Escort to... Foolish Underworld?!

Fang Yu quickly realized some things.

"Your Rebel Army made peace with the Foolish Underworld? They are people of the Ten Major Families, and yet your Rebel Army dares to cooperate with them?"

Nian Jiachen sneered coldly.

"This isn’t something we can decide; General Commander’s orders surpass everything! I believe in General Commander’s judgment; since he did this, there must be a reason!"

Fang Yu looked at him coldly.

"A dignified Rebel Army, just sends a minister to Foolish Underworld because of a few words. I see the Rebel Army is no different from Foolish Underworld. Foolish Underworld is the dog of the Ten Major Families, and you... are merely General Commander’s dogs! If you’re dogs, be good dogs, stop talking about righteousness; it’s disgusting to hear!"

"What do you mean! What the hell do you mean!"

Nian Jiachen immediately became furious but was suddenly subdued with a knee strike from Qiu Xiaoping, who had noticed earlier, forcing him to kneel down and restricting his actions.

But Nian Jiachen’s mouth did not intend to stop.

"You’re just an outsider from the outer city, what do you know about our Rebel Army! If one of you dies, do you know how many lives can be saved? This isn’t a reconciliation between the Rebel Army and Foolish Underworld, it’s cooperation! As long as you die, the Rebel Army will cooperate with Foolish Underworld for the first time! This power will be enough to overthrow the Ten Major Families! Change everything in Thunder City!!"

Nian Jiachen’s roar, Fang Yu couldn’t hear.

He only asked one question.

"So, I should die? For your so-called everything."

"Of course, you should die! If it were me, I would be willing to die for the Rebel Army..."

"That’s you, damn it!" Fang Yu suddenly shouted with rage, instantly overpowering Nian Jiachen’s voice.

"If you want to die, it’s your death; if you want to die for your Rebel Army’s reasons, it’s your business. Why drag me into it! I’m done! I’m leaving Thunder City! Whoever dares to stop me, I’ll kill them, damn it!"

Fang Yu roared with a ferocious face, and that menacing look momentarily stunned even Qiu Xiaoping and the others.

"Each one of you... each one of you! None of you are humans, you want to be beasts, huh! Fine, then I won’t be human either! Let’s see who can kill whom!!"

Already extremely irritated, Fang Yu gripped his scalp, his fingertips sinking slightly into his head.

Veins of black appeared on Fang Yu’s face, a reaction of imminent demonization.

The terrifying and insane aura rose from Fang Yu’s body, sweeping the entire scene! Instantly changing the expressions of the previously infighting four, and all showing vigilance towards Fang Yu.

"Young Master Diao..."

"Brother Diao! Don’t be impulsive!"

Despite all being ministers, Fang Yu’s exhibited pressure at that moment was so terrifying that even Xu Qingqi, the strongest among them, felt immense pressure.

Very strong! Even I might...

"Everyone, stop!"

Who?!

Xu Qingqi sharply looked toward the source of the voice, but in the next instant, his expression changed drastically, and he restrained his aura.

And at that moment...

That person who spoke had already stepped from outside the door into the hall as if teleporting.

This person came suddenly, silently, even Fang Yu hadn’t noticed the slightest, and his vigilance immediately surged.

Ignoring the tense atmosphere, disregarding Fang Yu’s overwhelming demeanor, the person merely glanced around the room, slowly speaking.

"Plan terminated, two messages arrived temporarily."

"First, the forces from the Capital moving south suddenly changed direction and are heading straight for Thunder City! Whether they are friend or foe, what their intentions are, is yet unknown. As the army approaches, the force is strong enough to destroy everything the Rebel Army possesses. The time left for our preparations is running out, and we must gather all our available forces now, ready to face any situation brought by the approaching army."

"Second... General Commander relayed a message, the Master of Foolish Earth Mansion has just died within An Mansion."

As the words fell, everyone was shocked!

The scene instantly plunged into silence, even Fang Yu showed some bewilderment and a dazed look.

The Capital, the southbound army, turning toward Thunder City?

And the Master of Foolish Earth Mansion, dead?

What... is the situation?

Fang Yu stared dumbfoundedly at the person in front of him, unable to digest these two significant pieces of news.

[Wang Zhijun: 12000/12000.]

...

On the winding and long official road, a man slowly opened his eyes from a pile of bodies on a carriage.

"How long have I slept?"

Though it was a man’s body, it emitted a woman’s delicate and pleasant voice.

"About ten days, have you absorbed the memory?"

"Do you even need to ask?"

The man crawled over the pile of bodies, reached out and wrapped his hands around the coachman’s neck, gently exhaling.

"Isn’t this exactly what you were looking for from me?"

"... Don’t mess it up, Heart-devouring Demon. Remember, your current name is Diao Ruonian. A slave who is about to offer his heart to the royal family."

The man toyed with the coachman’s hair like a girl, laughed playfully: "Rest assured, I know what I’m doing."

She gazed at the winding road, a hint of longing in her eyes.

"Ah, the Capital... I’ve lived so long, yet I’ve never been to the humans’ Capital. I wonder... if the humans there taste... sweeter? Hahahaha!"

Responding to him was a long silence.
