Hua!
Hearing Xue Shenqi’s words, the audience burst into an uproar. The supreme commander had been replaced so easily?
In the big clan team, Chu Qing, Ye Kai, Sun Baisheng, and Yang Kun were all pale.
Although they had a feeling that Xue Shenqi would abdicate his position to someone else, they didn’t expect it to happen at this moment…
“d.a.m.n it!”
Chu Qing immediately cursed, “Xue Shenqi has taken sides! He’s on Han Fei’s side!”
Ye Kai’s eyes were cold. “Xue Shenqi sacrificed a lot to let Han Fei succeed in his position. At least, in the eyes of others, he resigned before the war. This is a disgraceful thing. Those who don’t know him might think that he can’t bear the responsibility and is afraid of fighting.”
Sun Baisheng took a deep breath. “It’s taboo to change the commander before the war, but Xue Shenqi did it. How dare he?”
Chu Qing snorted. “So, Xue Shenqi chooses a good time. I find that Han Fei’s name often rang in the carnival shops. In the Refining Hall, books written by Han Fei are sold for free. Fei-Yan-Mu Furnaces are demonstrated on the street… Xue Shenqi, he had long planned to make Han Fei famous on the Scattered Stars Island. Today, Han Fei slaughtered a Venerable under the public eye and immediately became the center of attention. Is there a better chance for him to do so than now?”
The people from the big clans all had ugly expressions.
In fact, if it were someone else, they wouldn’t have cared.
However, this person happened to be Han Fei. He was from the Thug Academy, and his father was Han Guanshu, and the two both had a great grudge against the big clans.
Once Han Fei became the supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island, once the people on the Scattered Stars Island were united under his rule, he would be very powerful. His personal power, to a certain extent, was even above that of the big clans.
How many people could a big clan control? How many people could the supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island control? The difference was obvious.
In addition to the number of people and the economic conditions, due to the special location, the Scattered Stars Island was closely related to the Thousand Star City and the 36 towns.
Xue Shenqi had always turned a blind eye to the resource supply of the Scattered Stars Island.
In fact, most of the resources that flowed to the Thousand Star City were taken by the big clans.
But how could Han Fei let the big clans get so many resources after he became the supreme commander?
Chu Qing shouted in a low voice, “Inform the clans that this is a big problem now. If Han Fei succeeds as the supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island, there will be too much trouble.”
…
Unlike Chu Qing and the others, the front-line soldiers had different thoughts.
In the eyes of these people, the enemy was right there. Whoever killed the most enemies would win their allegiance. Whoever was powerful enough would win their allegiance. Whoever made the greatest contribution would win their allegiance.
Xue Shenqi’s status was unshakeable. He had controlled the Scattered Stars Island and stood on this vast sea for many years, and his achievements were remarkable.
Han Fei, the greatest contribution he made was to invent the Fei-Yan-Mu Furnace.
Now which refiner didn’t know Han Fei’s name? Even those who went to the Refining Hall to forge Semi-Divine weapons all knew Han Fei’s name.
Also, there was no telling if it was intentional or not, but in the past few years, the news about Han Fei had never stopped spreading. They always heard someone mentioning him inadvertently…
In the past two days, the news that Han Fei had returned and killed a Venerable had been spreading like wildfire and almost everyone knew it.
Today, Han Fei killed a Venerable again!
Besides, he appeared in the Sea of Pearls and killed Blue Feather, the commander of the Sea Clan. He butchered Dao-seeking powerhouses as easily as killing fish and could almost kill one every step he made.
It could be said that Han Fei’s sudden descent greatly boosted morale.
Of course, this might not be enough.
As the supreme commander, it seemed too easy for Han Fei to reach this position. Compared to the previous commanders, Han Fei didn’t seem to have any honorable deeds. There was only hearsay about him everywhere.
But Xue Shenqi had announced his decision, and these people had all witnessed how powerful Han Fei was.
In the end, the scene of Han Fei healing everyone with his Holy Light Chain was even more shocking than Han Fei killing a Venerable.
After all, killing a Venerable was too far away for ordinary people.
At most, they could only see Blue Feather being sent flying, see cracks in the sky, and rain of blood.
In any case, at least the people present had accepted the decision. After all, Han Fei could fight! In just ten days, he had killed two Venerables. This was something they had never heard before.
On the ground.
Jiuyin Ling looked calm and didn’t feel anything special about it. She even felt that it was a matter of course.
He Xiaoyu murmured, “The supreme commander?”
Xue Shenqi said, “Speak something to the people. When we return to the Scattered Stars Island, prepare to take my jobs over. You need to meet some important people on the Scattered Stars Island.”
Han Fei stepped into the sky and stood in front of everybody.
He seemed to feel that he was too small. Golden light overflowed from his body, the shadow of invincibility condensed, and a golden giant more than 20 meters tall stood in the air.
Han Fei said in a clear and resounding voice, “Everyone, I’m Han Fei. I don’t think you know me very well, because I haven’t been fighting here long. However, at the critical moment for the survival of mankind, although I’m not around, I’ve been thinking of ways to kill sea demons and protect our human race.”
Han Fei smiled and shouted, “I think you are no longer newcomers. You should know the way of dealing with enemies on Scattered Stars Island. It’s really exhausting to just defend. Today, I, Han Fei, as the supreme commander, may not be able to eliminate the sea demons, but at least, I will lead you to fight our way out. From today on, let’s fight together…”
Towards the end, Han Fei’s voice rumbled like thunder, making everyone below excited.
As Explorers and Law Enforcers, they naturally knew the situation and the appointment of the Central City.
Xue Shenqi must have made such a big decision considering the future of the entire island.
They had no choice but to obey.
Immediately, twelve explorers walked out of the void.
Their leader shouted, “Nice to meet you, Marshal Han. We’re willing to die with you.”
Hundreds of law enforcers echoed, “Greetings, Marshal Han. We’re willing to die with you.”
Then, the crowd roared, “Greetings, Marshal Han. We’re willing to die with you.”
Han Fei raised his head slightly, glanced at the sky diagonally, and shouted, “The Scattered Stars Island already has Marshal Han, so I dare not use this t.i.tle. I’ll use the word ‘Han’ (The Han of w.a.n.g Han)… Okay, today’s battle is over. Clean up the battlefield and return to the island.”
…
Someone would lead the army.
About a hundred seconds later, tens of thousands of kilometers away, on a fis.h.i.+ng boat on the sea.
When Han Fei came, he saw that Old Han had made tea and had been waiting for a long time. Xue Shenqi took a seat casually and finished a cup of tea.
Han Guanshu smiled. “Don’t drink like a fish.”
Xue Shenqi remained expressionless. “Now that Han Fei has a.s.sumed the position, he will face many challenges. But if he is incompetent for this position, I’ll take it back.”
Han Fei landed on the boat too. He glanced at the four cups hanging on the rocks in the air and smiled casually. “Of course. My goal is not Scattered Stars Island. When the chaos is over, the Scattered Stars Island will still be yours.”
Xue Shenqi said, “If the chaos can be easily pacified, why have we waited so long?”
Han Fei looked at Han Guanshu and asked, “Why is there an extra cup?”
Han Guanshu tilted his head and looked at the void. “Ning Jing, long time no see. Come down for a drink!”
“Ah, is it really you? You seem to be much stronger than last time.”
As they talked, they saw a beautiful figure walking thousands of kilometers with each step. She stood on the deck and chuckled, sitting opposite Han Fei.
Xue Shenqi was a little stunned to see Ning Jing. F*ck, how can there be such a beautiful woman in this world?
However, Xue Shenqi was much calmer than Han Fei was.
When Han Fei first came to the Water-Wood World, he was stunned by every single woman he saw; and he felt that every man he saw was as handsome as Zhang Xuanyu.
Han Guanshu pushed a cup of tea to Ning Jing and said, “Did Han Fei cause any trouble for you on this trip.”
Ning Jing was a lively girl in the first place, especially when she knew two people here. She immediately said, “More than trouble! He almost caused a ruckus in our world. He provoked kings’ wars several times. I’ve never seen anyone more capable of causing trouble than him!”
“Kings’ war?”
Xue Shenqi’s eyes glittered.
Ning Jing mentioned kings’ wars, which meant that there were indeed kings where Han Fei went.
In this case, Han Guanshu wasn’t lying. The other side of the channel shouldn’t be easily stepped on.
Ning Jing pursed her lips. “Did I just say kings’ war? Forget it. It’s not a big deal. However, war is really frequent in your world. Are there only human beings in this world? It must be very tiring for you human race to defend against the sea race alone!”
Han Guanshu took a sip of tea and said, “Different worlds have different lives. Although you’re here, what I want to say is that before I take action, don’t do anything.”
Ning Jing said impatiently, “I know, I know. The queen told me a long time ago.”
“The queen?”
Xue Shenqi thought to himself, The king over there is actually a woman?
However, Xue Shenqi didn’t ask further but looked straight at Han Guanshu.
Han Guanshu seemed to know Xue Shenqi’s meaning. He smiled and said, “Your eyes are on the Scattered Stars Island, but Han Fei’s goal is not here. Scattered Stars Island is just a trial for him.”
Pa! Pa!
Han Fei patted the table. “Hey, hey! Old Han, let’s talk nicely. Don’t treat me like a machine. Trial? I don’t need you to give me trials!”
Han Guanshu’s lips curled. “I haven’t schemed against you for a long time. Because from the day you came to the Scattered Stars, everything is developing on its own course. I just occasionally meddled with one or two things during this process. I’ve never regarded you as a chess piece. From beginning to end, you are the decisive power in this game.”
Xue Shenqi said, “The momentum is like a bell, and the spirit is sharp enough to slaughter an azure dragon. What momentum!”
