Chapter 918: Chapter 46: Military God or War God? (Part 2)

In the room, Li Tianyu looked at Li Fei with a face full of astonishment.

When the Northern Territory conflict had just started, she followed a professor from Wu’an University to the north for training. (See Volume 3, Chapter 150 for details)

She never left after that, and later even voluntarily applied to join the Savage Killing Army.

But was ruthlessly rejected by Li Fei.

When Li Fei returned to Shaman City, he transferred Li Tianyu over as well.

Qin Zhen’s assessment of Li Tianyu was very accurate; the battlefield was the most suitable place for her.

Through battlefield training, Li Tianyu quickly broke through from Qi Change Middle Stage to Qi Transformation Peak, enabling her to start ‘Unity.’

Over the past two months, Li Fei took the effort every day to apply his self-created ‘Hundred-Day Breakthrough Method’ to Li Tianyu.

In terms of both personal aptitude and willpower, Li Tianyu met the requirements of the ‘Hundred-Day Breakthrough Method.’

After more than two months of cultivation, her ‘Unity’ completion rate had exceeded ninety percent.

“Within just over a month, you can complete ‘Unity’ and become a Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artist.”

Li Fei told Li Tianyu, “Currently, there are fewer than 20 Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artists in the Savage Killing Army. After your breakthrough, you won’t take long to be among the top in combat power, so there’s no need to worry about commanding respect.”

“But…”

“Sis, wasn’t your childhood dream to become a female general and make a name on the battlefield? Now that you have the opportunity, why are you frightened?”

Li Fei deliberately provoked her.

This tactic indeed worked, and Li Tianyu’s eyes focused, she raised her chin:

“Who said I’m scared? Fine, it’s decided!”

Li Fei smiled: “Then from today, you need to practice Military Dao Martial Arts.”

Since deciding not to pursue the Military Dao in the future, he wouldn’t always stay in the Northern Territory.

After he leaves, there must be someone trustworthy enough to take over the newly established Savage Killing Army in the North.

And the most suitable candidate he thought of was Li Tianyu.

Firstly, absolute trust can be placed.

Secondly, Li Tianyu’s aptitude and talent indeed suit the battlefield.

“Military Dao Martial Arts? Who will teach me?”

Li Tianyu asked.

Li Fei: “That’s simple; I will inform Principal Shi to arrange for a professor skilled in Military Dao Martial Arts to teach you in the Northern Territory specifically.”

Even without the connection of Shi Caiming, with his current status, reputation, and power, he could easily accomplish this matter.

“It’s just that it would be taxing for you to stay in the Northern Territory long-term.”

Li Fei said to Li Tianyu.

Li Tianyu waved her hand, indifferent:

“What of it, I have always liked the battlefield. Being able to stay here, and even having the chance to command a formidable force like the Savage Killing Army, is a dream come true for me!”

With that, she suddenly looked seriously at Li Fei:

“Xiao Fei, thank you!”

If not for Li Fei, she might never have had the chance to command such a powerful army like the Savage Killing Army in her lifetime.

“Then practice hard and aim to become a ‘Marshal Level’ Military Dao master in the future!”

Li Fei laughed.

“Alright, it’s a deal!”

Li Tianyu nodded seriously, her eyes full of determination.

…

Feng Province, Provincial City.

Lu Mansion.

“Family Head, this is the secret letter sent back by Qu Yan; it can now be confirmed that our informants in the palace have been controlled.”

In the study, the steward of the Lu Mansion reported to Lu Wenzheng, while presenting a secret letter with both hands.

Lu Wenzheng’s face was somewhat gloomy as he received the letter and opened it directly.

After reading it, his expression turned even more grim; he looked at the steward:

“Get Hongyi University on the phone and invite Principal Xu to the mansion for a talk.”

“Yes.”

The steward quickly retreated.

That afternoon, Xu Jing arrived at the Lu Mansion. Lu Wenzheng personally greeted him, then they entered the study alone.

“Over the past two months, the informants I’ve placed in the palace have been controlled.”

Lu Wenzheng went straight to the point.

Xu Jing was taken aback and looked at him: “Controlled? Controlled by whom?”

Lu Wenzheng sneered: “In the Imperial Palace, who else could simultaneously find out all my Lu family’s informants other than that person?”

“The Emperor?”

Xu Jing frowned, “Why?”

Lu Wenzheng didn’t give an immediate answer: “Apart from my Lu family, the informants of other families are also controlled. I learned of this because I deliberately hid someone, who has never been used over these many years.”

Xu Jing listened with increasing confusion: “Controlling all families’ informants, is it to conceal some significant news?”

Lu Wenzheng looked at him: “The person I hid doesn’t hold a high position in the palace, so they can’t gather deeply insider information. They only informed me that from July 15th, the palace has been under lockdown, outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense.”

“July 15th?”

Xu Jing recalled, “The day Qi Ming died?”

The achievements of the Savage Killing Army and Li Fei had spread across the world long ago; July 15th was the day the ‘Evil Demon’ Qi Ming was eliminated!

Lu Wenzheng nodded, speaking meaningfully:

“The Emperor hasn’t held a grand court assembly for over two months.”

Thanks to the Central Cabinet handling various state affairs, the timing for calling a grand court assembly wasn’t fixed. Even if it was never called, it wouldn’t have too much impact.

But the current Emperor is a diligent ruler, and in the past, would hold a grand court assembly at least once a month.

Not holding one for over two months consecutively is indeed very uncommon.

Xu Jing caught the implication in Lu Wenzheng’s words, his expression becoming serious as an invisible force enveloped the study:

“Are you suggesting the Emperor’s health is in trouble?”

Lu Wenzheng squinted his eyes: “I think it’s very possible. Killing a Peak Grade strong person from a distance, can it be done without consequence? Moreover, this was a Peak strong person who had refined the Curse Dao?”
