Chapter 177 The Strongest Among the Younger Generation
Chapter 177 The Strongest Among the Younger Generation
"Immediately summon those five lords to my Eastern Sea military headquarters to discuss matters!"
After Ye Ling agreed to help the Eastern Sea King annihilate Sky Wolf Island, the Eastern Sea King didn't even stop for food, and instead directly addressed his commanders.
The commanders of the Eastern Sea military also immediately took the order and then dispersed.
The Eastern Sea King looked at Ye Ling, smiled, and said, "I am quite impatient, Northern Liao King, I hope you don't mind."
"Haha, not at all," Ye Ling said with a shake of his head and a smile.
The upcoming discussions were, after all, about important matters concerning the Eastern Sea, and Su Rou, being a woman, was not suitable to attend.
After sending Su Rou back to her villa, Ye Ling, accompanied by Ye Jiu and others, went to the council hall.
When they entered the council hall, all the major commanders and the Eastern Sea King were already seated inside.
Upon seeing Ye Ling's arrival, the commanders all stood up to greet him.
After all, they had witnessed Ye Ling's capabilities and naturally could not ignore the presence of Ye Ling, the Northern Liao King.
The Eastern Sea King got up and said with a smile, "Come, come, sit here."
Ye Ling nodded slightly and took the seat to the right of the Eastern Sea King.
Ye Jiu and the others stood behind Ye Ling, each with a stern face, like guardians of the door.
Once Ye Ling was seated, the Eastern Sea King and the commanders also took their seats.
Looking at Ye Jiu and the others behind Ye Ling, a hint of envy flashed in the Eastern Sea King's eyes.
Seven Great Grandmasters, among them three had already reached the peak of Great Grandmaster, just one step away from becoming half-step War Kings.
With such powerful figures under his command, how could the Eastern Sea King not be envious?
Then looking at the commanders of the Eastern Sea military, among the six, only one had stepped into the realm of Great Grandmaster, while the rest were all Grandmasters.
Such strength, compared with Ye Jiu and his companions, was far inferior.
"Squeak!"
Just then, the sound of brakes came from outside the council hall.
Hearing these sounds, the Eastern Sea King's eyebrows raised slightly, and he said with a light chuckle, "It should be the five lords arriving."
Four of the lords greeted Ye Ling, while Ma Xianhong, as if he hadn't heard the Eastern Sea King at all, directly took a seat on the closest chair to him.
Seeing his conduct, the Eastern Sea King only frowned slightly, showing a trace of displeasure on his face.
Ma Xianhong glanced at Ye Ling and said indifferently, "The Northern Liao King is not staying in Northern Liao; what brings him to our Eastern Sea?"
"Could it be that the Northern Liao King can no longer stay in Northern Liao and wants to develop in the Eastern Sea?"
Ma Xianhong's voice was flat, but the disdain in his words was more than clear.
Hearing his words, the most hot-tempered Chen Dao immediately stepped forward, glaring coldly at Ma Xianhong, and said in a cold voice, "If you want to die, just say it directly, and I will send you on your way!"
"Daring to speak ill of the lord, you should be executed for your crime!"
Ye Jiu also spoke in a cold voice.
Facing the overwhelming aura of Chen Dao and the others, Ma Xianhong appeared as if he didn't notice, still wearing a look of indifference.
However, the two elders behind him each revealed a hint of murderous intent, as if they wouldn't hesitate to attack Chen Dao and the others at Ma Xianhong's command.
"I have not yet abdicated! Everyone, behave!"
The Eastern Sea King's eyebrows were lightly furrowed as he spoke in a cold voice.
At his words, Ma Xianhong waved his hand and said with a smile, "Today, I'll give face to the Eastern Sea King and not bother with them."
Ye Ling also spoke lightly, "Stand down."
Chen Dao and the others each gave Ma Xianhong a cold look before they returned to stand behind Ye Ling, resuming their positions.
Ever since Ye Ling was clapped in irons three years ago, many rumors constantly emerged.
These rumors led many to look down on the once awe-inspiring Northern Liao King, Ye Ling.
People thought that since the once exalted Northern Liao King was imprisoned, they could mock him at will, but no one considered that it was not solely the title of the Northern Liao King that allowed Ye Ling to firmly hold Northern Liao in his grasp.
It was rather more about Ye Ling's formidable strength.
In vast Northern Liao, there were absolutely no small number of strong individuals, yet none could match Ye Ling!
There was none before, none now, and there will be none in the future.
Ye Ling looked at Ma Xianhong with a faint trace of disdain in his eyes.
With such a nature, even if one's strength is immense, they are destined not to achieve anything great.
