Chapter 83 Northern Liao King
Half a day hurried by.
Ye Ling brought Ye Jiu and two others to the Gusu courtyard, where they took a private room and ordered a table full of dishes!
Ye Ling sat alone at the table, while Ye Jiu and the other two stood behind him like three guards fully dedicated to their duty, expressionless!
A series of delicately presented dishes were quickly brought to the table, and just as Ye Ling was about to eat, he heard noise coming from outside the private room!
"Is Ye Ling in this room?"
A rough voice came through, and Ye Ling silently put down his chopsticks.
"Tell him to be quiet, don't disturb my meal."
Ye Ling said indifferently.
Ye Jiu pulled open the door to the private room only to see three people standing outside.
The man in the lead was tall and burly, none other than the commander of the Southern Border Army's Fourth Corps, Commander Wang!
Behind him were two young men who looked like his followers.
"Shut up! My lord is dining; everyone needs to be quiet!"
Ye Jiu's indifferent gaze swept over the trio of Commander Wang as he spoke tonelessly.
Upon hearing this, Commander Wang's expression immediately changed, and he said coldly, "He, Ye Ling, is just a man of the secular world; does he really take himself so seriously?"
"I am the commander of the Southern Border Army's Fourth Corps; does he dare to make me wait here while he eats?"
"It would be wise of him to roll out here immediately, and I might still grant him a quick death!"
Seeing Commander Wang's arrogant manner, the brows of Ye Jiu and the others slightly furrowed, a glint of murderous intent flashing in their eyes.
"Don't start a fight just yet; seeing blood would spoil the appetite."
Ye Ling spoke up softly, and only then did Ye Jiu and the others restrain their killing intent.
Hearing Ye Ling's voice, Commander Wang pushed Ye Jiu away from the doorway and strode into the room.
Pulling out a chair, Commander Wang sat down with a thud.
He looked at Ye Ling brazenly, then at the table full of delicious food, and sneered, "You sure have an appetite, killing so many of the Zhao family and crippling Zhao Yuansi; you still manage to eat?"
The commanding officer's expression froze, and he reached out to slowly pick up the token in front of him. The process was extremely slow, and even the commanding officer's hand was trembling slightly.
This palm-sized token seemed to carry the weight of ten thousand jun, making it extremely difficult for the commanding officer, with the strength of a Great Grandmaster, to pick it up.
Finally, the commanding officer, suppressing the shock in his heart, picked up the token.
On one side of the token was a five-clawed golden dragon, roaring up towards the sky.
On the other side, there were only three characters, written in a flourish: Northern Liao King!
"Clang!"
The moment he saw the three characters of Northern Liao King, the commanding officer's hands trembled, and the token fell back onto the table.
His expression terrified, he asked Ye Ling with a quivering voice, "You... you are the Northern Liao King!? How is this possible... how could it be..."
The commanding officer's voice trembled, and his entire being seemed to have gone mad.
As the leader of the fourth legion of the Southern Border's army, he had naturally seen the identity token belonging to the Southern Border King.
His instincts told him that the token symbolizing the identity of the Northern Liao King before him was genuine.
In the vast Dragon Realm, no fool would dare to impersonate one of the four War Zone Kings.
Among the four great War Zone Kings, the Northern Liao King, both in terms of strength and the army under his command, far surpassed the other three War Zone Kings.
To dare to impersonate the Northern Liao King—if the Northern Liao army were to find out, no matter who the perpetrator was, they would certainly die under the iron hooves of the Northern Liao army.
Suddenly, the commanding officer's body trembled violently; his expression filled with terror as he turned to look at Ye Jiu and the others.
Ye Jiu and his companions each revealed a disdainful smile and then each released a trace of their own aura!
The auras of three Grandmasters at their peak bore down like Mount Tai, instantly flattening the commanding officer to the ground.
He was merely at the early stage of Grandmaster, facing three at the peak of Grandmaster; it was like an ant facing a dragon, completely powerless to resist!
Feeling the three terrifying auras enveloping him, the commanding officer was now utterly convinced that Ye Ling was the Northern Liao King.
Only the legendary Northern Liao King could have three peak Grandmasters willing to serve him!
"The, the lord, it's my fault for not recognizing you, for offending you..."
"Please show mercy, my lord, and spare my life..."
The commanding officer knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.
