Second Level, the artifact spirit awakens!
After hearing this, Yuan Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Old Servant still has two excellent strategies."
"Speak quickly, I'm all ears." Miao Jincheng appeared impatient.
Yuan Zheng said, "My lord, back then, Tan Yun showed great disrespect to your adoptive father. You could have him send someone to eliminate him."
“Just think about it, even if Tan Yun had a hundred lives, it wouldn't be enough to get him killed!”
After hearing this, Miao Jincheng looked at Yuan Zheng with approving eyes and said, “Good, very good! Your four strategies are all feasible.”
“However, we must not alert the City Lord before the very end. After all, we were wrong first. It was we who instigated the conflict with Tan Yun. When the time comes and Tan Yun is killed by the City Lord, we may not be able to escape either!”
“Also, this matter should not be known to my adoptive father for now. If I can’t resolve such a small issue, my adoptive father would surely be disappointed in me!”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zheng nodded and said, “You still think things through comprehensively, my lord.”
Miao Jincheng sneered, “Tan Yun, oh Tan Yun, you must not have expected that I would uncover your background so quickly!”
“I tell you, I have many ways to take your life!”
After hearing this, Yuan Zheng inquired, “My lord, do you mean to use the excuse of a serious illness to summon the young master back to deal with Tan Yun?”
“Mm.” Miao Jincheng took a deep breath and said, “Only in this way can we swiftly eliminate Tan Yun!”
“Steward, you must head to the inner city military camp immediately and inform the young master about my serious illness. I believe the immortal generals will agree out of respect for my adoptive father!”
……
Twenty days later, in the inner city of Xuan Yuan Immortal City.
Inside a majestic military tent, a general dressed in black armor stood upright like a spear, exuding a formidable presence.
From the middle-aged general's armor, it could be seen that he was a Major General!
And indeed, this person's name was Duan Tiande, the Major General in charge of ten thousand immortal soldiers, along with ten thousand hundred-man immortal elders!
Among the ten thousand immortal elders he commanded was Miao Jincheng's only son: Miao Wei!
At this moment, inside the military tent, a middle-aged fat man resembling Miao Jincheng and clad in armor was Miao Wei.
Duan Tiande looked at Miao Wei and said, “Since your father is seriously ill and bedridden, this Major General agrees to your trip home for a visit.”
“Thank you, Major General!” Miao Wei expressed his gratitude with a gleaming gaze.
“Hmm!” Duan Tiande's expression was serious as he added, “You should hurry back home. We’ll be going into battle in two months. Once you return from your visit, come back with me to the battlefield!”
“I will follow your orders, and I take my leave!” Miao Wei finished speaking and stepped out of the military tent, leaving with Yuan Zheng, the steward of Miao Manor.
Inside the military tent, Duan Tiande looked approvingly at Miao Wei’s departing figure and muttered to himself, “This child is brave in battle and is a rare find among immortal generals.”
“Many think that I, this Major General, am complimenting you because of my position as the vice president of the alchemical refinement guild, but that’s not the case! I truly appreciate a soldier like Miao Wei!”
After leaving the military camp, Yuan Zheng looked at Miao Wei, who was anxious and said via thought transmission, “Young master, don’t worry. My lord is fine.”
“Hmm?” Miao Wei was puzzled and transmitted, “If my father is fine, why did you say he is seriously ill?”
Thus, Yuan Zheng recounted the events between Tan Yun and Miao Jincheng to Miao Wei.
Upon hearing this, Miao Wei clenched his teeth and said, “What a Tan Yun! Does he think he can bully the Miao Manor because we are powerless?”
“Rest assured, I’ll go back right now and make him return the Immortal Stones he extorted from the Miao Manor, then I’ll eliminate him!”
