long chen and the others had only just returned to the eighth legion’s camp when ye lingfeng came charging over with his people.
“long chen, shen chengfeng, hand over our spoils or i will annihilate the eighth legion today!”
ye lingfeng’s roar resounded throughout heaven and earth. his voice was full of hatred and resentment. through this one battle, they had lost so much, but had only gotten less than a tenth of the spoils.
tens of thousands of experts from the third legion were now standing in the eighth legion’s camp. they were so angry it looked like they might spontaneously combust at any moment.
“aiya, aren’t you that commander ye? why did you come over here so ferociously?” long chen walked out, looking at him like a kindly elder. the act almost made him laugh, but he managed to keep up his appearance.
“why?! hand over our things!” roared ye lingfeng.
long chen looked at him disdainfully. “commander ye, this time you’re wrong. we came rushing over to the third legion from such a great distance to help you, but instead of being grateful, you come here looking like you want to kill people? it truly makes a person’s heart cold.”
some of the people beside ye lingfeng felt these words to be so familiar, but the eighth legion’s people all knew that this was how ye lingfeng had treated them before when taking their spoils.
“bullsh*t! this was your scheme! hand over the spoils right now!” demanded ye lingfeng, also noticing that imitation.
“your spoils? did they have your name on them?”
“you!”
“what you? have you forgotten how arrogant and domineering you were when you took our spoils? let me tell you, the demonic beasts that we killed have our arrows in them. that’s the proof. whoever killed the prey gets it. didn’t you say that last time? it’s your own crap, returned to you untouched, right?” sneered long chen.
ye lingfeng had taken the eighth legion’s spoils in a similar way, infuriating the warriors. now the wheel had turned, and spitting back ye lingfeng’s words right at him was a cathartic release for shen chengfeng and the others.
“that’s completely different. you were the ones who drew the demonic beasts over to our side maliciously. hmph, as long as this is reported to the heaven executioner, just a few searches through some souls will show the truth. did you really think your scheme was seamless?” shouted ye lingfeng.
shen chengfeng’s expression changed slightly when the heaven executioner was mentioned. the heaven executioner was someone who handled big things in the divine families. if this matter ended up growing any bigger, it would be troublesome.
“the truth? isn’t it already very clear? our actions were all open and aboveboard. if you want to say something, then say it,” urged long chen.
“amazing, ye lingfeng looked like his dad had just died. i suddenly realized how blessed we are.”
“fuck, we finally got to vent. i feel like my next bottleneck has even weakened. the feeling of revenge is about to burst out of my chest.”
“senior apprentice-brother long chen actually conned ye lingfeng to this point.”
the eighth legion’s warriors were so excited that it couldn’t be described with words. they were still floating in the clouds.
the resentment that had been accumulating for years was finally released. that feeling wasn’t something an outsider could understand.
“brother long, i really admire you. this scheming is something i’ll never be able to learn,” praised shen chengfeng.
long chen shook his head. “this little trick is practically shameful. if it was taken out in the secular world’s empires, people would laugh at you for trying such things. but it’s enough for ye lingfeng. a higher level scheme might not even work on that idiot.”
“long chen, aren’t you saying that we’re also idiots?” shen chengfeng bitterly smiled.
“you were born in the cultivation world and live off of martial power, so you don’t need schemes. but i was born in the secular world in a noble family that was about to be crushed. i grew experienced with these schemes from a young age. in the secular world, individual power doesn’t vary much. when two people are equally powerful, then schemes can show their usefulness. but in your world, it’s a joke, because as long as you can crush your opponents with power, no scheme will make up for it. tell me, if i was in the xiantian realm and possessed unparalleled intelligence, do you think i could beat you?”
“no, that would be impossible.”
“exactly. just remember that fish and bears have different skills, and you can’t have both. if you waste your time scheming, your cultivation speed will definitely be slowed. for me, playing these kinds of games is just for some occasional fun. don’t fall for it,” warned long chen.
shen chengfeng’s heart shook, and he hastily said, “i understand.”
“good. has everything been counted up yet?”
“we have enough to reclaim our first defensive line. just half our points should be enough for that. we also have enough to reward the warriors and equip them better.” shen chengfeng’s eyes shone with excitement.
“why would taking back your territory require points?” asked long chen.
“hm? i don’t understand. if we don’t use the points for various besieging apparatus, how are we supposed to take back our camp?”
“isn’t there still ye lingfeng and the others?”
“what?”
