Chapter 21: The Commander of the Armed Forces

  A loud roar dispersed the splitting headache, also dispersing that obsession. A burst of energy suddenly shot out from his body, with a mysterious aura emerging in waves, undergoing a qualitative change compared to before.

  "Take up your arms!"

  Wu Jia's master was stunned, slowly uttering three words. Everyone looked at him with a different gaze, and unexpectedly, he broke through at this time. That brick-like Xuanbing actually managed to break through and reach the level of Zhangbing Master?

  Mystical soldiers all need corresponding kung fu methods; without kung fu methods, how can they break through?

  In front of the Wu family's gate, on the main road of Yao Guang City, Du Gu's group suddenly stopped for a moment. The silver-robed man and Dugu Jiu Xian lightly turned their heads to glance at the Wu family, with some astonishment on their faces. The silver-robed man said: "Actually broke through, interesting."

  "Those who have not reached the level of a spiritual warrior are just ants. Even if they are spiritual warriors, without foundation, they are still just ants!"

  "Indeed, Tian Ge said that, right Jiu Xian, what exactly happened between you and this interesting kid back then?" The silver-robed man asked with great interest, the golden-robed man also perked up his ears, and the people behind them gazed intently.

  "There's nothing much, just that he handed me a few love letters. He was an ambitious guy trying to climb up the ranks. At the time, I thought it was interesting that even an outer disciple like him would send me love letters, so I remembered him and gave him some hope. Later on, he disappeared, and I didn't pay much attention to it. I didn't expect to see him again today, nor did I expect him to have such a story."

  "So that's how it is, you're quite evil too. This is fundamentally impossible, even if his strength can surpass our core or direct lineage, but he's just a thug after all. Unless his father, that scoundrel, is also part of the core or he can achieve some unparalleled feat, but by then, Jiuxian, you'll probably be married off already." The silver-robed man shook his head and said.

  "Yes, so I thought he was naive, didn't expect him to still be so naive now."

  "Really? Haha!" The man in silver robes turned his head back, took a look at the method of the Wu family, and burst out laughing: "I really want to know who that scoundrel father of his is. He should be at least someone with some power."

  "Hmm, right, should our Dugu family change some rules... never mind, I didn't say that!"

  "It's just an ant, what's there to discuss? Let's go, we don't need to stay in Yao Guang City either. We'll head straight to Bei Dou City. This auction is my first trial by fire, I won't tolerate any mistakes. I must get that item." The man in the golden robe said calmly.

  Everyone responded in unison and followed suit, and the plan to stay in Yao Guang City was also cancelled.

  ——

  Night fell, although it had been several hours since the departure of the Dugu family, but the Wu family still looked depressed. Soon after the people from the Dugu family left, Wu Jia's master Lei Lifeng took action and directly dealt with the two masters and their followers. Many wavering people also followed suit, expressing loyalty or other empty words, but people were still in a state of panic.

  What happened in the martial arts arena spread far and wide, and many people thought that Wu Yue had gone mad. However, some people saw through Wu Yue's intentions after calming down and were surprised to find that he also knew how to use strategy.

  Place it in death ground and then live...

  There are still many places that don't make sense, if he hadn't gone to scold people before, Dugu Jiu Xian wouldn't have let him die, and even gave him the opportunity to return to the Dugu family. Why did he scold people, why did he spray randomly without reason? Is it really a silly boy who has no plan at all, or is he doing this to make Dugu Jiu Xian remember him?

  No one would have thought that the soul of Wuyue had changed, at that time there were not only external battlefields but also internal ones.

  In the courtyard where Wu Qianshuo was, Wu Ya was sitting in front of a sumptuous dinner eating with gusto. The improvement of his strength also promoted his appetite. Wu Qianshuo was watching him from the side, and at this moment, she still had lingering fears about everything that happened in the morning. If that woman didn't have any sympathy, then Wu Ya would be dead for sure. At that time, how could she herself still live on?

  It's all in the past now, she's happy now, at least her son has completely cut off his path back to the Dugu family because of those words before, from now on he will become an ordinary person, a plain and unremarkable person without any glory.

  Moreover, he also understood the subtleties in Dugu's words and was considerate of this mother who had no idea how long he had forgotten her.

  Although Wu Ya ate a lot, he was thinking about things in his heart just like Wu Qianxue. After reaching the rank of Master Swordsmen previously, he fell asleep as the mental exhaustion from that obsessive struggle was too great. However, it's all better now and the obsession has finally disappeared.

  Those final words were meant to sever all hope of attachment.

  "Don't worry, I'll definitely take care of your mother for you. If my abilities permit it, I'll also fulfill my promise and return to the Dugu family to pull out that scoundrel." Wu Cui said quietly, with this stage, with the "Xuanbing Dictionary" and "Magic Dictionary", Wu Cui actually had that crazy idea in his mind, which others thought was absurd.

  Moreover, the six days and six nights of long kneeling in his memory, the reason for his mother to pay with her whole body's vital energy, the cold rules and the glory in brainwashing, although it was an obsession given to him by his memory, he felt the same way.

  The persistence finally made a reluctant sound and dispersed.

  In Wu Yao's view, obsession is actually a lingering resentment that has not been dispersed. Dispersing it would be its final resting place. He had no guilt in his heart and thought that as long as he treated Wu Qian Xue well from now on, everything would be fine.

  Because of the dispersal of his obsession, his body seemed to have suddenly discharged something, and with a sense of relief, just like finally urinating after holding it in for half a day, his mind and body felt refreshed. In that instant, his vital energy was naturally stirred up, and then without any warning signs, it broke through.

  Commander of the army, Commander-in-Chief, Generalissimo, Divine General, Imperial General, Earthly General, Heavenly General, Holy General, Divine General!

  This is the division of levels for the Xuanbing warriors on this vast and mysterious continent. Each level is divided into nine segments, and although the lowest level, "Zhāng Bīng Shī" (Palming Sword Master), seems like just an entry-level, it's also the highest level that most people on this continent can reach. It's extremely difficult to break through to higher levels above this one.

  "Mother, I'm preparing to return to Beidou City tomorrow and would like to take you with me. Are you willing to go together?" Wu Yue asked somewhat vaguely while eating his meal.

  "Take me with you to Beidou City?"

  "Hmm, if Mother wants to stay at the Wu's house, I won't insist either. When the time comes, I'll just come back and visit you."

  "No, let's go together. There's nothing good to stay for in this Wu family." Wu Qianxue shook her head, she was an extremely strong-willed and proud woman, otherwise she wouldn't have risked everything to enter the Dugu family back then.

  It's been too bitter all these years, the man she likes is unwilling to meet her, and in her son's eyes, there are only two words: "Dugu".

  "Okay, then let's go together tomorrow." Wu Yao nodded and suddenly said another sentence that made Wu Qianxue extremely sensitive: "By the way, Mother, what does that scoundrel look like?"

  "Xiao Ya, what are you going to do, your memories?"

  "My memories have mostly recovered, but don't worry, I won't go back to being the person I was before. The me from before was a despicable thing, a killer of thousands. I've thought about it a lot and I understand now that there's no way for me to think about the honor of the Dugu family anymore. Before, I cursed people just to cut off my own path." Wu Yue explained: "But those words before weren't a joke either. That scoundrel treated us mother and son like that, how can I swallow this anger? I want to become stronger, I want to seek justice."

  "Xiao Ya, let's just forget about this matter, shall we?"

  "Don't worry, Mother. I won't be impulsive. If my strength is not enough, I wouldn't dare to crack eggs against rocks. Even if he stands in front of me, I won't draw my sword. But at least I'll make it a goal, one day I'll make that scoundrel kneel before you and beg for your forgiveness."

  Wu Ya's words were sharp as a knife, and Wu Qianxue suddenly burst into tears.

  "Xiao Ya has really grown up!"

  She let out a soft sigh, and then slowly described the characteristics of that scoundrel. From her eyes, it was still possible to see the lingering affection and attachment, but she didn't mention the story of how she and the scoundrel were together back then.

  Wu Ya didn't ask, she just silently remembered.
