Book of Disaster

Boom!

It was as if a thunderclap had exploded. General Xuanwu's burly body trembled violently, and the air flow in the entire prison became turbulent and chaotic.

It was obvious that Bai Qi's words had an effect on him.

"If no one protects you with all their strength, if these people sacrifice you without hesitation, then after killing me, have you thought about the consequences? Have you thought about how to deal with the wrath of our Bai family, the Imperial Concubine, the Canglong Army Commander, the Xinwu, the Confucian School, and even His Majesty?"

"Do you think that with your status and strength, you can withstand such a blow?"

Bai Qi spoke fluently and without any panic.

"So I've said it before, the one who needs to worry is not me, but you. I'm here to give you a chance. General Xuanwu, you've taken on such a hot potato and you don't even realize you've been chosen as a discarded pawn. What a pity... Now, have you thought it through?"

There was deathly silence in the entire prison.

General Xuanwu was breathing rapidly. He no longer had his previous arrogance and domineering attitude, let alone his previous composure and composure.

He is just a teenager. With his experience and knowledge, how could he be persuaded by just a few words? But nothing Bai Qi said was nonsense; they were all well-known facts.

It is precisely because of this that General Xuanwu could not take it lightly and could not help but seriously think about every word Bai Qi said.

——Because this is really closely related to his life.

"Ugh."

After a long pause and a sigh, General Xuanwu finally spoke. That resolute face no longer had any trace of arrogance.

"I have heard of your great name for a long time. At that time, I was a little skeptical. Now it seems... your reputation is well-deserved."

"But this is a serious matter. If I kill the young master, I will offend the new Wu. If I don't kill the young master, I will offend the old Wu. No matter what, my current situation will not be very good."

"Before I answer you, I want to know, if I am really stupid and determined to use you as a token of my loyalty, how will you respond? How will you cope with it?"

General Xuanwu stared at Bai Qidao with an extremely serious expression, and even the torches on the wall jumped.

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

Those who can reach the level of top military generals are indeed not ordinary people, and they cannot be easily persuaded to change their positions with just a few words from others.

However, once such a person is convinced, he can really be used.

"It doesn't matter even if the general doesn't agree. I never put my hope on one person. If you think about it, he should be here soon."

Bai Qi smiled and spoke quickly.

"What do you mean?"

General Xuanwu Huo's face changed.

"Haha, although you are the highest commander in the recruit camp, it is only in the capital. You must have forgotten that there are higher commanders above you in the Yuan Dynasty's recruitment of new soldiers, right?"

Bai Qi said.

"Report!"

Almost at the moment when Bai Qi finished speaking, a hurried sound of footsteps came over, and in a moment, a messenger immediately appeared in the prison:

"I just received news that General Nangong will be arriving soon. Please come and greet him as soon as possible."

"what?!"

General Xuanwu's expression suddenly changed when he heard this.

This is... too fast!

……

A moment later, in another hall.

When General Xuanwu saw the big shot the messenger mentioned, he was shocked.

In front of him was a young man who looked to be about 26 or 27 years old. He was tall and straight, wearing a dark red battle robe with silver edges, on which was embroidered a golden dragon hovering in the clouds, with its claws spread out, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, as if it could take off at any time. The cloak he wore was made of the scales of the mythical beast Xuanwu, and each scale was shining with a steady light, like the brightest star in the night sky, indicating his extraordinary status and power.

He wore a long sword at his waist that looked simple but contained the power of heaven and earth. A dazzling gem was carved on the hilt, emitting subtle fluctuations. Even before the sword was unsheathed, one could feel an unfathomable danger.

His facial features were distinct, like a finely carved jade, and his brows revealed an innate majesty, as if he was a god walking out of an ancient scroll.

Especially those deep and determined eyes, when they glance over, they seem to be able to see through all the vanity and see through people's hearts.

When his eyes met General Xuanwu's, General Xuanwu felt an involuntary sense of oppression, and his momentum involuntarily weakened.

General Nangong!

General Xuanwu never expected that it was this person who came to save Bai Qi.

"I didn't know you were coming, my Lord. I failed to greet you. I hope you will forgive me, General."

General Xuanwu was shocked and saluted quickly. The moment he bowed his head, the information of General Nangong quickly appeared in his mind.

The recruitment of new soldiers is divided into countless areas, the capital is just one of them, and General Xuanwu is the person in charge of the capital. But above him, there are several officers in charge of the entire recruitment of new soldiers. Nangong Xu from the Nangong family is one of them.

Although he is young, this favored child of the Nangong family is recognized as being very powerful.

According to rumors, he had already reached the level of Martial Saint.

As the chief officer, General Xuanwu has the power of life and death in the recruit camp. Even the imperial court has no right to interfere, but the Nangong Xu in front of him definitely has the right to interfere.

Even the moment he appeared, General Xuanwu's power was automatically taken over.

"Where's Bai Qi? Hand him over immediately. This matter is no longer under your jurisdiction."

Nangong Xu did not exchange pleasantries with General Xuanwu. He went straight to the point and stated his purpose.

"!!!"

General Xuanwu was shaken violently.

"My lord, Bai Qi committed a serious crime. As a new soldier, he actually led a group of people to fight in the camp and even beat up the royal family members. Prince Xiao Jing is still in a coma due to his serious injuries..."

"I understand, leave it to me."

However, Nangong Xu waved his hand, interrupted him directly, and said without any doubt.

"this--"

General Xuanwu still wanted to struggle, but Nangong Xu no longer gave him a chance.

"Why, do you have any objections? Or do you think that I, the chief of the emperor's personal guards and the chief officer of recruiting new soldiers, can't even make the decision on the matter of a small recruit and have no right to interfere? Are you dissatisfied with me or with His Majesty?"

Nangong Xu's expression turned cold, and he glanced at General Xuanwu indifferently.

And just as his eyes opened and closed, there was a click, and a huge pressure condensed into substance, immediately bursting out from the body of the young general and sweeping across the entire hall.

Even with General Xuanwu's strength, he immediately felt his shoulders sink, as if an invisible mountain had suddenly pressed down on his back.

And just as he hesitated, the heavy pressure quickly doubled, the entire hall suddenly sank, and the ground under General Xuanwu's feet cracked, and several red floor tiles were immediately shattered into powder.

During the whole process, Nangong Xu didn't even take any action. He just glanced at him. In such a short moment, General Xuanwu already felt shortness of breath.

There are also differences between military generals.

"Yes."

General Xuanwu struggled for a long time, and finally bowed in response.
