Skinny Du"s stunned expression made An Zeng stunned as well. However, at this time, there was no time for hesitation.

An Zhe picked up the horse and started to run, and Du unconsciously ran with An Zeng.

Fortunately, the army of the Infantry Division had yet to react, and the two experts of the Embroidery Palace were still searching the courtyard.

An Zeng and Du skinnied far away, not daring to stop for even a second.

""How did you get here?"" he asked as he ran.

Skinny Dean replied: ""You probably won"t believe me if I say that he has become a living person, right?""

I... f * cking don"t know.

You told me to wait there, and then someone tapped me on the shoulder behind me and said h.e.l.lo.

And then I got something in my hand and I looked at it and it was a f.u.c.king living person. ""

Luckily, there were no pursuers. An Zeng and Duro saw an abandoned house not far away. It must be an old house that had already been moved away or was no longer there.

The two of them jumped in one after the other and then disappeared into the room.

The room was dusty and dry.

The smell of the door was unpleasant, but they didn"t have time to worry about it.

To them, running this distance was nothing, but the thin man was gasping for breath because he was too nervous.

""What the h.e.l.l is going on?""

Anjou asked.

""I really don"t know. I told you just now that someone patted me on the shoulder and said h.e.l.lo.""

And then I got a guy in my hands, and he"s a f.u.c.king horse.

At the time I was still thinking, could it be that Ma Ziwei knew we were going to catch him, so he ran out to find me?

He slapped me on the back and said h.e.l.lo and then thrust himself into my hands? ""

""That"s a reasonable answer.""

Du sat on the chair and breathed heavily. ""What else? Did I conjure it up?""

The only possibility left in An Zhe"s mind was Chen Shaobai.

Just as he was thinking, the door creaked open from the outside.

Skinny Du subconsciously jumped to his feet. The Sovereign of the Seas" trident was summoned, and was about to attack.

An Zaiyue grabbed Poseidon"s trident, then pointed to the umbrella in the man"s hand.

Black, yaksha pattern on it.

""What the h.e.l.l are you doing?""

the man asked.

The person who came in and put down the black umbrella was, as expected, Chen Shaobai.

He laughed in a way that was as hateful as it could be. An Zhe really wanted to punch him in the jaw.

""You left the umbrella at the door for me?""

Anjou asked.

Chen Shaobai nodded his head: ""Other than me, do you think there is anyone else who would treat you with such respect?""

I feel like I"m your protector, as long as you want me to.

But you have no respect for me, and even if I am a lamp, you must make a wish for me.

""Your att.i.tude makes me a little disappointed.""

""You gave me two umbrellas so that we could enter the Infantry Division.""

""Then you stole the horse out of the Infantry Division. Since you can f * cking steal people out, why are you giving me an umbrella back?""

Chen Shaobai: ""If you say that then you have no conscience at all. I am kind enough to help you, just like a saint from the ancient times.""

What kind of spirit was this, in a hurry?

""Putting aside the large spiritual level, the more realistic ones … At the very least, you should thank me with clasped hands.""

""Your head.""

Chen Shaobai: ""Can you be more decent?""

""Answer me, quickly.""

""Who is this guy? Why does he look so familiar?""

Chen Shaobai smiled at Du: ""You think I look familiar because I"m handsome and a man"s pa.s.s.""

""That makes sense...""

Chen Shaobai said, ""The reason I gave you two umbrellas and then stole the horse out of the Infantry Division is because I … found it very fun. Hahahaha … Hmm, that"s right. It was that simple.""

An Zhan sighed, ""If you don"t suspect that I can"t beat you, do you believe that you can beat me last year?""

Chen Shaobai said, ""Stop bulls.h.i.tting, alright? As the only savior of the military, why don"t you quickly interrogate the prisoner? You still have the mood to flirtatiously chat with me here … Pah, chat.""

""You are the only hope w.a.n.g KaiTai and the others have. Aren"t you afraid that you will fail to live up to their trust in you?""

""I"m more curious about why you"ve been helping me all this time.""

Chen Shaobai: ""Do you believe me if I say that I want to be friends?""

""I had a few handfuls of friendship with you before.""

Chen Shaobai: ""What about love?""

""Scram!""

Chen Shaobai looked at Du: ""He doesn"t believe it, do you believe it?""

Skinny Du hesitated for a moment, looked at An Zeng and then looked at Chen Shaobai. ""I … don"t believe it, right?""

Chen Shaobai: ""The tone of your question is well-used, which fully shows the dilemma in your heart … Alright, then I will speak the truth.""

The reason I"ve been helping you all this time is because you"ve unwittingly been helping me with something big.

What is the most secure relationship between people?

Please don"t tell me anything about friendship or love, that"s bulls.h.i.t.

The surest relationship between people is to exploit each other in valuable times. ""

He looked at An Zhan and earnestly said, ""Although you don"t know what happened, you can still think of it this way.""

I"m helping you now, just in return for what you"ve been helping me with.

If so, are you feeling better?

All in all, I don"t owe you anything, and you don"t owe me anything.

""I haven"t used you subjectively, so what you"re saying about this relationship is nonsense.""

Chen Shaobai: ""Then just take it as me bulls.h.i.tting. Anyway, you really did get help.""

In other words, I just didn"t want to thank you, so I gave you back what I owed you. ""

After saying that, Chen Shaobai turned around and walked out. ""Furthermore, it is extremely gratifying to just watch you do whatever you need to do as a savior, and I can just casually help you.""

He walked to the door. ""Enjoy the thrill of my own strength, and perhaps that"s one of the fundamental reasons why everyone wants to be strong.""

He threw the black oil-paper umbrella into the sky and it instantly grew bigger. Then he covered the entire old house within it, ""Just stay in this old house peacefully, what should I do?""

An Xuan said, ""I don"t want to owe you so much for nothing.""

Chen Shaobai smiled and said, ""Idiot … As I said earlier, I am repaying the favor I owe you.""

So you can enjoy all this in peace. Think of it as a pie falling from the sky.

""It"s not the kind of stuffing made from leek or egg sh.e.l.l. It"s made from shrimp!""

After saying that, Chen Shaobai flashed onto the wall: ""Oh yeah, do you remember what I told you a long time ago?""

You will see me again at the Ascension Ceremony. As for how you see me, that is hard to say.

Maybe I"m standing right in front of you and you don"t even recognize me. ""

""However, it"s best if you don"t partic.i.p.ate in the Autumn Festival.""

""With your stubborn temper, you can"t do anything that goes with the flow.""

Before An He could say anything, Chen Shaobai had already disappeared.

Skinny Du curiously asked, ""Who exactly is this G.o.dly guy? He looks a bit familiar.""

But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn"t remember where he had met such a person. ""

""Chen Shaobai.""

Anjou replied.

Skinny Du was stunned for a moment. ""Chen Shaobai?""

""This name sounds familiar … f.u.c.k, you"re talking about that Chen Shaobai from the Great Illusory World?""

""Yes, that"s him.""

Skinny Du looked outside in fear. ""This guy can"t really be in love with you …""

Ann rolled her eyes at Dean and crouched down to pinch the unconscious horse on the nape of its neck.

A groan escaped Ma Zi"s throat, and he slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw that the person in front of him was arguing, he was so scared that he crawled backwards. ""An Zhan … What are you trying to do?""

""Of course Sir Ma knows what I want to do.""

Ma Zi trembled slightly and said, ""You should also know what you"re doing. You"re kidnapping an official of the imperial court, what do you mean by that?""

""On account of you and me being old acquaintances, I … I can forgive you, but you will immediately send me back to the military.""

""Under normal circ.u.mstances, what should the good man do to someone like you?""

Sentimental persuasion?

Let you know that what you did was wrong, and wait for you to repent and tell the truth, and save the innocent at the most critical moment? ""

""No, no, no …""

""I don"t have that much time. Now, can you tell me what exactly happened?""

Before Ma Ziwei could say anything, An Zizheng exerted force on his arm and broke one of Ma Zimo"s arms with a kacha sound.

Ma Zi cried out in pain and then started to yell like he was crazy, ""Men!""

""Help!""

""This place has already been sealed off by magical equipment, so no one can hear you call out.""

He sat down cross-legged in front of Ma Zi Wei and grabbed Ma Zi Wei"s right hand. ""I"ll repeat to you now, I don"t have time to chat with you.""

With a crack, he broke Ma Ziwei"s thumb: ""Speak, or not?""

Ma Zi"s forehead was covered in sweat and his body trembled uncontrollably. ""I … I don"t know what you are talking about.""

""All I know is that you have kidnapped an officer of the military and are using lynching to force a confession.""

An Zeng smiled and said, ""That"s right, what you said is completely true.""

With a cracking sound, An Zhe broke Ma Zi"s index finger. ""Actually, this method is quite boring. Luckily, he has a total of twenty branches. I heard that breaking his toe is more painful than breaking his finger.""

Ka, his middle finger was also broken.

Ka, the ring finger was broken.

Ka, his pinky was broken.

Then he let go of Ma Ziwei"s right hand and picked up Ma Ziwei"s left. ""Shall we continue now?""

""I"ll tell you!""

Ma Zi"s face contorted from the slight pain, beads of sweat rolling down from his forehead.

As the a.s.sistant minister of the Ministry of War, how could he possibly withstand such pain?

Furthermore, An Chou didn"t give him the chance to say anything before he broke his five fingers. An Chou just wanted to break his five fingers.

Ma Zi held onto his right hand, which had five broken fingers. His body trembled as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

""This matter … was actually done to topple Chen Zaiyan.""

Ma Zi grinned slightly and said, ""The evidence and witnesses that the general Su Zong brought back from Youguo are actually all false.""

The army of Great Yan advanced at high speed in the frontline and had already entered the inner regions of Quiet Country.

You Guosheng suffered from the enemy and sent people to ask for help from the Da Xi, hoping that the people from the Da Xi Kingdom would come to mediate the war.

However, the journey from You Country to Da Xi was a long one. By the time the Holy Emperor sent someone to intervene, You Country would have probably been wiped out. ""

""So Quiet Nation started to think of other ways, but our frontline commander, Fang Zheng, could not get any closer. No matter what they did, it would be useless.

In the end, Ethereal Opening thought, since I can"t do anything to Fang"s confidant, then I"ll just make a mess of things behind Great Yan.

Therefore, they gave Su Zong countless gold and silver treasures, as well as a few beautiful women from Nether Realm. They asked Su Zong to get rid of the general"s confidant.

""But how could Su Zong dare to make a move on a bosom friend of his? He can only take a step back in order to get rid of the Military Department"s Minister Chen Zaiyan.

When he returned to the capital, he was in harmony with the empress dowager.

The empress dowager couldn"t wait to release Chen Zaiyan and let her forces control the soldiers … ""

An Zhan drew in a deep breath. ""This sort of thing, it"s really disgusting enough.""
