Chapter 5454 Raising troops to investigate crimes

"It seems that Senior Lu Ji has just settled down, but he is about to throw himself into the battle again."

Zhang Yifeng looked at Wan Renxue's furious expression and turned to Lu Ji and said.

"It doesn't matter. Such a traitor with wolfish ambitions who betrays his country should be executed!"

Lu Ji said in a deep voice, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

What he hated most in his life were these traitors who sold out the interests of their country for their own selfish desires.

Especially for those who betray their master and rebel for their own power, Lu Ji would not be able to kill him eight hundred times!

"It seems that I was too soft-hearted and let such a shameless person go!"

Lu Ji shouted coldly, and couldn't help but think of what happened that year.

"Oh? Could it be that there is some hidden secret behind the battle between Senior Lu Ji and Bai Mu?"

Zhang Yifeng raised a doubtful expression. He naturally knew that Bai Mu had fought with the fledgling Lu Ji.

Lu Ji also became famous after this battle, and there is indeed some connection between the two.

However, Zhang Yifeng had only heard about the result of the battle between Lu Ji and Bai Mu, and did not know the process.

But judging from Lu Ji’s expression now, there might be some hidden secrets behind that battle.

"Mr. Zhang, you don't know that when I was just starting out, I faced the new elder of the Snow Clan, Bai Mu. I couldn't help but feel a little excited."

"So from the beginning, I planned to use all my strength to show my respect for it."

"I didn't expect that Bai Mu was just a weakling. Facing my repeated attacks, he was no match for me."

"Finally, he lured me into a canyon. I thought he was going to fight me to death."

"But when he saw that there was no one around, he actually knelt down and begged me for mercy, asking me to spare his life."

"My character was not as good as it is now, but seeing him begging for mercy like this, I couldn't help but feel sympathy for him."

Lu Ji shook his head and told the truth about the battle.

"what?"

Zhang Yifeng's pupils narrowed and he looked at Lu Ji in disbelief.

Not only him, but even Wan Renxue and Qin Wu on the hospital bed could not help but exclaim in surprise after learning the truth.

After all, Bai Mu had often boasted about his battle with Lu Ji in the Snow Country, and often swore by the scar on his chest that he would kill Lu Ji sooner or later.

"Then, what about the so-called fatal wound on Bai Mu's chest?"

Qin Wu thought for a while and asked in a deep voice.

"Fatal injury? I don't know about this. At the beginning, I just beat him up and he couldn't hold on."

Lu Ji frowned when he heard this. He had a clear memory of the battle that made him famous.

After all, it was a battle fought with all-out efforts, but it ended with that result.

He even became famous because of it, which made Lu Ji feel even more aggrieved.

Because of this, he remembered this frustrating memory very clearly.

"It seems that in order to cover up the fact that he surrendered without a fight, Bai Mu faked a fatal wound on his chest."

"And with his acting skills, he successfully fooled the elders and people of the Snow Country into believing that his injuries were caused by a fatal battle."

After listening to the entire content, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but curl up a scornful smile at the corner of his mouth and said in a calm voice.

He had already seen that Bai Mu faked injuries on his body just because he didn't want to be looked down upon by other members of the Snow Clan.

He even deliberately showed his anger about his injuries and Lu Ji.

However, Zhang Yifeng estimated that his anger was real. After all, Lu Ji was the only one who knew the truth of the past.

Moreover, Bai Mu was also the real deal, he knelt down and surrendered to Lu Ji.

This humiliating memory will surely follow Bai Mu throughout his life.

"This guy is really shameless!"

Qin Wu gritted his teeth and shouted while lying on the hospital bed, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Before taking action, I think it is necessary to express my apologies to you, the Great Elder."

"I'm very sorry for hurting you so much without knowing the situation clearly."

Lu Ji walked up to Qin Wu, bowed deeply to him, and said apologetically.

"It doesn't matter. In fact, I already knew that this would be a life-or-death situation."

"But even for this glimmer of hope, I am willing to give it a try."

"After all, the current result is the best result I have ever gotten after risking my life."

Qin Wu shook his head upon hearing this and said in a deep voice.

"Oh? Did the Great Elder know in advance that it would be dangerous to go to the border alone?"

Zhang Yifeng raised his eyebrows and heard the key information from Qin Wu's words.

"That's right. In fact, there have always been secret agents planted by my side by Bai Mu's side."

"His every move has never escaped my eyes."

Now that the situation is clear, Qin Wu naturally has no need to pretend anymore.

"Right now, Bai Mu probably doesn't know what happened on the border. He's probably still in the castle, sitting in my seat, fantasizing about the days when he'll become king."

"This is the time when Bai Mu's defense is the weakest. Mr. Zhang, go ahead and deal with him first."

Qin Wu pursed his lips, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

Wan Renxue noticed that the Great Elder was in a strange mood.

He immediately took a step forward, nodded to Zhang Yifeng and Lu Ji and said, "You two, please follow me."

After saying that, Wan Renxue led the two of them out of the room, leaving Qin Wu alone on the hospital bed to calm down.

"Elder Ma, please stay here to protect the Great Elder. The rest of the Snow Clan warriors, follow us back to the castle."

After Wan Renxue walked out of the room, he had an imperial look on his face and gave orders to the Snow Clan members outside the door.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

Elder Ma and the other four elders responded respectfully and then stood outside the door.

The rest of the Snow Clan warriors followed Wan Renxue silently and walked out.

"Xuanyuan, you and Dali should stay here as well, just in case something unexpected happens."

"Fellow Daoist Yue Fang, thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Yifeng also spoke solemnly to the three people around him, and then left with Wan Renxue and others.

Arriving on the deck of the battleship, Lu Ji looked around and shouted, "All troops, get ready. We have temporarily joined the Snow Country and become its border defense force."

"The future ruler of the Snow Country, Princess Wanrenxue, will lead us to the center of the Snow Country to eliminate the rebels."

"Now, if anyone is dissatisfied with this situation, they can leave on their own."

"I, Lu Ji, am definitely not the kind of person who would force others to do anything!"

Lu Ji looked around, exuding the majestic aura that only belonged to a great general.

"Follow the general to the death!"

"It is our duty to wipe out the Snow Country rebels!"

No one on the surrounding warships showed any intention of resistance after hearing Lu Ji's words. They all half-knelt on the ground and responded loudly.

"Okay, then follow me and fight together to wipe out this evil man who is causing harm to the country and the people!"

Lu Ji drew his sword and gave an order, and the army marched towards the castle in the center of the Snow Country.
