Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and on the third day, a military officer finally summoned Ling Feng and others from the new soldier camp to the commander tent to meet the Southern Army Commander, Yuan Tiangang.

Judging from the sound of war horns in these few days, the demons of the Southern Border Demon Domain indeed frequently attacked the fortress, no wonder Grand Governor Yuan was so busy.

At the moment, more than half of the Southern Army's officers had gathered in the commander tent, while the other half were still engaging the Demon Clan at the front line.

"Grand Governor, the situation is not optimistic. Apart from the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor, another two Demon Emperors among the Eight Great Demon Emperors of Sky Demon City have also joined the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor's ranks, increasing the pressure on us in the Southern Army."

A general with thick eyebrows and a fierce scar on his cheek angrily pounded the table, his right arm wrapped in bandages, clearly just retreated from the battlefield.

"Ah, I really miss the days of the nine great Demon Emperors. With Qiongqi Demon Emperor's restraint, we haven't had any battles above Third Level size at the border for over twenty years!"

Beside the thick eyebrow general stood a one-eyed general with an eye patch, lightly sighing. This eye was shot blind just a few days ago.

"Such a pity that Qiongqi Demon Emperor suddenly died violently, alas, a peak Demon Emperor dying just like that, I bet eight out of ten times it was done by the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor!"

"Alright then, regardless of what happens within the Demon Clan, the first thing our army has to face is the fierce offensive of the Three Great Demon Emperors!"

Yuan Tiangang's eyes were fixed on the map in front of him, his expression grave, "The Silver Wolf Demon Emperor wants to swallow up our Cang Yun City and Iron Wolf City and connect his territory to the Sky Demon Forest. This way, the area around Sky Demon Forest will no longer be open for the Human Clan to touch."

"They have such a big appetite! The resource-rich Sky Demon Forest has always been a vital strategic resource collection point for our Southern Army, what makes them think they can just take it!"

The Scarface general hissed angrily.

"Therefore, this battle must be fought fiercely, not yielding an inch!"

A flash of determination appeared in Yuan Tiangang's eyes, "These demons seem fierce, but in reality, they also fear that the Heavenly Saint Empire in the south might launch an attack on them! If this situation drags on, surely the Heavenly Saint Empire understands the mutual dependency of lips and teeth!"

"True, the Empire's elite Black Armored Cavalry Army has also been gradually deployed, unless the Three Great Peak Demon Emperors strike simultaneously, they can forget about breaking our fortress!"

Beside Yuan Tiangang was a middle-aged scholar in a white robe, holding a feather fan, evidently the think tank of the Southern Army.

Just at that moment, a communication soldier rushed into the tent and loudly reported, "Reporting to the Grand Governor, General Wei Yuan Ling Feng and his entourage are already waiting outside the camp."

"Hmm." Yuan Tiangang took a deep breath, eyes slightly squinted, and said softly, "Invite them in."

The generals inside the tent immediately began discussing.

"General Wei Yuan? I've never heard of this person before?" The Scarface general retorted scornfully.

"I have some impression, apparently he defeated the Eleventh Prince of the Tianyang Empire, which got him promoted to general by the Emperor."

"We risk our lives licking the blade edge to earn battle achievements, ten years or eight years might still not be enough to become a general, yet this kid just defeated a mere prince to get the rank of general?"

The one-eyed general snorted in displeasure, "Damn, he's really lucky!"

"Lee Qing! Damn right, I'm really upset about this, what's so special about this kid, is he three-headed and six-armed, being made a general without fighting a battle once? Even the Emperor can't believe becoming a general is child's play!"

The Scarface general also started cursing foully.

"Watch your mouth!"

Yuan Tiangang slammed the table, "Wang Meng, even the Emperor isn't someone you should be criticizing!"

The Scarface general's expression changed immediately, quickly explaining, "Grand Governor, that's not what I meant, I'm just angry!"

"Enough, seal your lips tightly, all of you!"

Yuan Tiangang gave Wang Meng a fierce glare, slowly saying, "Hanging him around for a few days wasn't pointless, I've already investigated this kid thoroughly."

"This kid has done a few impressive things in the Northwest Army and has some skills. But it seems he's affiliated with the Ninth Prince, which is not something to overlook."

The look on everyone in the tent changed.

Being affiliated with the Ninth Prince, this identity is indeed quite intriguing.

Yuan Tiangang squinted his eyes, a glint flickering within them; no one knew what was on his mind.

Unlike the Northwest Army Commander, within the Empire's Five Major Imperial Military Regions, the Northwest Army Commander is known as the "Fierce Tiger," being the most courageous and commanding amongst the five commanders.

Yuan Tiangang, however, is known as the "Silver Fox."

As the name suggests, he is the most cunning and deep-minded among the five commanders.

Indeed, it is for this reason that he can firmly defend the Empire's Southern Border without natural geographical advantages.

Half a year ago, the Ninth Prince was sent to supervise the army, yet until this day, he is still excluded from the power core, showing even just a hint of the old fox's finesse.

The tent flap opened, and Ling Feng, Lee Bufan, and others entered the commander tent one after another.

"Haha..."

Before they could stand firmly, Yuan Tiangang from the main seat laughed heartily, "General Ling, Young Master Lee, I've long heard of your prominent names, come, take your seats, take your seats!"

Yuan Tiangang walked over to Ling Feng, grasping him with one hand and Lee Bufan with the other, personally leading them to the empty seats aside.

However, those seats were at the bottom right.

Empire customs hold the left as a prestigious position, and the bottom right, its implication, is clear.

This clearly signifies exclusion from the center of power.

Ling Feng shrugged. He had previously experienced the military's conduct style in the Northwest Army.

For these blade-edge-licking bloodthirsty men, they only respect strength!

His youthful face and excessively elevated military rank naturally left these generals unsatisfied.

Still, the conduct of the Southern Army Commander made Ling Feng view him a bit less favorably.

This man ultimately doesn't match the broad-mindedness and magnanimity of Northwest Army Commander Han Li.

"Sorry, General Ling, the governor has been tied up with military affairs recently, not able to make time." Yuan Tiangang smiled broadly, "Unexpectedly, General Ling is willing to seek us out in the Southern Army; the governor is truly delighted!"

"Hmph!" Ling Feng squinted and chuckled, his face remaining unchanged, quietly saying, "The governor thinks too highly of me."

"General Ling need not be humble, at such a young age achieving general rank, you are truly the first in the Empire."

Yuan Tiangang patted Ling Feng's shoulder and laughed loudly, "Come, drink up, let's drink!"
