A year later, in a canyon, at a mining site.
“Yun'er, I estimate that in three days, the Time Fallen Divine Iron here will be completely mined,” General Baifeng said with a smile as he approached Tan Yun.
“Yun'er, I estimate that in three days, the Time Fallen Divine Iron here will be completely mined out,” General Baifeng said with a smile as he approached Tan Yun.
“Hmm, once it’s mined out, we can leave sooner,” Tan Yun replied with a smile.
“Yun'er, is the Time Fallen Divine Iron we’ve mined enough for you?” General Baifeng asked.
“Not quite enough,” Tan Yun said, “Once we have enough Time Fallen Divine Iron, I will trouble Uncle to help me continue looking for Spatial Gold Flowing Sand.”
Just as Tan Yun and the general were conversing, an excited old voice echoed from the sky, “Feng'er, Yun'er, it's great that you’re both okay! I was so worried!”
In the next moment, a blue beam of light descended from the sky and transformed into Bai Cheng Divine King before Tan Yun and General Baifeng.
“Father, you don’t need to worry, I’m fine,” General Baifeng said as he looked towards Tan Yun, “If it weren't for Yun'er coming in time, I might have faced great danger.”
“Hmm, that's good to hear,” Bai Cheng Divine King said with a smile as he looked at Tan Yun, “Yun'er, you’re one of us, so there's no need for me to thank you excessively; that would be too formal, wouldn’t it?”
“You're right, sir,” Tan Yun smiled.
At this moment, Bai Cheng Divine King's smile faded as he turned to General Baifeng, “Your brothers, when they learned of your danger back then, actually used the military rules of the Skyward Military City as an excuse not to help. I am truly disappointed in them!”
“Father, everyone has their own ambitions, there’s no need to be angry,” General Baifeng replied, “I’m fine, aren’t I?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Cheng Divine King seemed to remember something and fell into deep thought.
“What’s wrong, Father?” General Baifeng asked.
“Feng'er, I know among your brothers, although your strength is weaker, you are more strategic than them,” Bai Cheng Divine King said, “I also know you have always wanted to be the young commander of the Skyward Military City.”
“Today, I have decided that when we return to the Skyward Military City, I will appoint you as the young commander!”
Hearing this, General Baifeng was extremely excited!
He knew that the position of young commander in the Skyward Military City was truly one that stood above countless others!
Except for Bai Cheng Divine King, everyone else had to obey the commands of the young commander.
“Thank you, Father,” General Baifeng bowed deeply, “I will definitely not disappoint you!”
“Good child, I believe in you, but you must promise me one thing,” Bai Cheng Divine King said.
“Father, please speak,” General Baifeng responded.
Bai Cheng Divine King took a deep breath and said, “Your brothers know that Yun'er has always regarded you as an uncle, so they dare not act against you lightly.”
“However, I am clear that in the face of power in the Skyward Military City, your brothers will cast aside brotherly feelings.”
“I suspect that sooner or later, they will take action against you, and I will arrange strong protectors around you. You must promise me that if they really take action against you, you should consider your brotherly bond and not take their lives.”
Hearing this, General Baifeng nodded, “Father, don’t worry, I understand what to do.”
“Hmm, very good.” Bai Cheng Divine King smiled in satisfaction.
At this moment, General Baifeng transmitted a message to Tan Yun, “Yun'er, thank you. If you hadn’t chosen to be under Uncle’s command when you ascended to celestial god, I wouldn’t have benefited from your rise, and the position of young commander would certainly have no connection to me.”
As General Baifeng said, if Tan Yun had not joined the Baijia Army and become a divine soldier under General Baifeng, he would not have risen to become the Battle God in Skyward Military City, later gaining the favor of Celestial Master Lingxia, becoming a named disciple, and ultimately becoming a direct disciple. He might not have gained his father’s favor.
