Chapter 371 - Insight Into Fire

"What does the general mean by this?" Xue Ba"s expression became sluggish for a moment as he stared at Xiang Jinglei with his eyes wide open.

Xiang Jinglei pointed at Xiang Yun and said, "Even if the entire world would betray Storm Nation, he wouldn"t, because even if he did rebel, the whole world would still have his surname!"

"He is my younger brother, the third son of the Duke"s Mansion, "Xiang Yun"!"

Xiang Yun scratched his head as he added, "There"s no need for the latter part."

"Boom!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire seventh floor"s long hall was struck by lightning. Xue Ba, Ou Chengwen and all the barbarians widened their eyes in shock, and their jaws almost fell to the ground!

At this moment, the crowd looked at Xiang Yun and Xiang Jinglei and only then did they realize that the two of them really did look somewhat similar. However, Xiang Yun"s skin was fair and his edges were relatively gentle, with a little more of the aristocratic family"s young master"s elegance and carefreeness, while Xiang Jinglei was awe-inspiring and valiant, his aura as sharp as a blade!

Looking at the two faces in front of him, Xue Ba suddenly shivered and felt his legs go soft as he felt dizzy!

"Xiang Yun!" Xiang Yun! The younger brother of Xiang Jinglei! side by side with w.a.n.g Xiang Ling"s son! " At this moment, Xue Ba"s mind was filled with these words, his heart was filled with horror!

Although Xue Ba had never seen this good-for-nothing son of trash who was renowned throughout the country, how could he not have heard of this name?

Back then, he had already guessed at Xiang Yun"s ident.i.ty. However, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not believe it. How could this young man in front of him, who had an extraordinary cultivation and skill, possibly have anything to do with that renowned trash?

However, everything that had happened in front of him was so real that he could not help but believe it.

"How is this possible!"

When he thought back to the time when he had personally attempted to heal Xiang Yun in the new camp, now that he had once again attempted to kill him and even attempted to frame Xiang Yun, he felt a chill in his heart!

The person he wanted to kill was actually that G.o.dlike man"s son. Even though there were rumors that Xiang Tian was already dead, the fear and panic that came from his soul was still engraved on Xue Ba"s heart, unable to be dispelled.

"Xue Ba, what else do you have to say for yourself!" Xiang Jinglei once again looked at Xue Ba and asked solemnly.

"This lowly general …" Xue Ba"s voice trembled as he looked at Xiang Jinglei. His expression immediately fluctuated.

"Heh heh." At this moment, Xiang Jinglei scoffed, "There"s no need to call me General anymore. You are a person with the will of an emperor in your heart. How would I dare make you kneel and kowtow?"

"Great General, I dare not!" Xue Ba still did not dare to admit this matter in front of Xiang Jinglei, denying it flatly.

However, the look of despise on Xiang Jinglei"s face grew deeper as he sneered: "Xue Ba, you said you don"t dare?"

"Last year at the 15th of the first month, in the Cold Mountain Pa.s.s, you were the black-clothed man on the roof of the Northern Forest Prefecture"s Ensign Residence. This year, it is the seventh and third day of the first month, and the person at the bottom of the dried-up well at the Cold Light County"s Ensign Residence is also you, right?"

"Hiss!"

In a split-second, Xue Ba felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured down his back in winter.

On the other hand, Xiang Jinglei continued to laugh: "Heh heh, of course. Also this year, in the early hours of the morning on the 16th of February, among the night patrols in the Secret Pavilion of Cold City, one of them was unconscious for an hour. You were also the one who was patrolling for him, right?"

"Seven secret military defensive maps were stolen within a short span of half a year. Commander Xue is really a capable member of the barbarian race!"

Listening to Xiang Lei recount the time and place of each incident, Xue Ba"s ears rang like thunder!

He could no longer say a single word.

He was in an extremely shocked state!

However, he himself acted in secret in order to ensure that no one would find out about all of this. How could Xiang Jinglei be so clear about all of this? It was as if he had seen everything with his own eyes.

Xiang Jinglei completely ignored Xue Ba"s stupefied and shocked gaze as he stretched out a hand towards Xue Ba.

"Commander Xue, there"s something that you should return to me, right?"

"What is it?" Xue Ba asked subconsciously.

"Hehe, I"ve already lent you my Tiger Tally to use as a reward!" But this is the right path, isn"t it? "

There was a mocking smile on Xiang Jinglei"s face. However, Xue Ba could clearly sense the shocking killing intent behind these words!

"How could you possibly know!" Xue Ba finally roared out loud on the verge of collapse. He felt that if he did not erupt now, he would completely collapse under Xiang Jinglei"s immense pressure.

Not only Xue Ba, but even Xiang Yun stared at his big brother in shock. The Gesun Trading Company"s President Ouyang was also extremely shocked. How did Xiang Jinglei know about this? If he knew, why did he have to be so unrestrained with Xue Ba?

"Hmph, if you don"t want others to know, then don"t do it. Stealing the secret map, spreading rumors in the north, colluding with the blind in Tiger City, all of your actions are in my eyes!" At this moment, Xiang Jinglei suddenly raised his voice. His voice was like a thunderclap that struck Xue Ba"s heart!

Being overwhelmed by this sharp aura, Xue Ba could not help but stagger a few steps back. However, he still looked at Xiang Jinglei in dissatisfaction.

"No, that"s not possible. Since you knew all this in advance, why did you watch me steal the map and give it to the barbarians? You even caused chaos in the northern territories. The entire tiger city has almost lost its control!"

"Humph!" Xiang Jinglei"s eyes were filled with ferocity, "If I hadn"t given up some things and put down some bait, how could I have lured out this big fish of yours? Now it"s my turn to pull the net!"

"What!"

At this moment, Ouyang Chengwen and Xue Ba simultaneously turned pale with fright. They had a bad premonition, and Ou Chengwen instantly took out a golden talisman. Clouds gathered in his hand, and a beam of light shot into the talisman.

However, the talisman only flashed with a translucent l.u.s.ter, and then it dimmed, and the talisman turned into a pile of black ash!

"This …"

Seeing this, Xiang Jinglei couldn"t help but reveal a mocking smile, "Lord Dima, you don"t have to waste your efforts. All of your strongholds in Tiger City, as well as the spies you"ve planted in the north, I"ve already taken them all down. Now, you"re the only ones left!"

"You!" Upon hearing the way Xiang Jinglei had addressed him and the reaction of the talisman paper, the concealed Lord Dima"s expression finally changed drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief!

He had been operating in the Tiger City for many years and his methods were extremely secretive so it was hard for the people around him to know about it. Other people even had no way of knowing, so how could he be completely removed in one night?

Xue Ba also said with a trembling voice: "Could it be that my brother is the same!"

"Hehe, Commander Xue, are you worried about County Governor Xue?" Xiang Jinglei shook his head gently and said, "If there are no surprises, County Governor Xue"s head will have already landed on the ground. The entire Xue family has partic.i.p.ated in the conspiracy. Other than the elderly, women, and children, the rest are already in trouble!"

"Plop!" The great formation in Xue Ba"s heart weakened and he finally sat on the ground. His face no longer had the slightest trace of blood!

At this moment, even Xiang Yun was shocked as he looked at the majestic back view. He had originally thought that this fellow was completely clueless of everything, but the latter was as clear as the sun and everything was within his control!

"Xiang Jinglei, you"re so vicious!" Xue Ba murmured word by word.

"Humph, compared to you two brothers betraying your country and not caring about the lives of your people and only thinking of seizing the world for yourself, "heartless" is truly a shame for this marshal!"

Xue Ba was stunned, but dejectedly, he did not say anything. The atmosphere instantly became icy cold and silent to the extreme.

"Pa Pa Pa!"

At this moment, Dima suddenly clapped. "Good, good, good! "As expected of Xiang Tian"s son. Regardless of his scheming or martial arts, he is still a dragon among men. I admire him, I admire him!"

The corners of his mouth lifted into a smile, but his dark green eyes were clearly filled with malice. He stared fixedly at Xiang Jinglei, gritting his teeth as a sentence popped out from his mouth.

"Xiang Jinglei, have you ever thought about whether you can walk out of here alive after appearing here today?"

Just as Dima finished speaking, the rings on his hands were suddenly taken off at the same time and thrown high into the sky.

Dima was chanting an incantation as both of his hands rapidly formed hand seals. A rather large surge of spiritual will instantly controlled the four rings and sent them flying toward the ceiling. They then shot out in all four directions, north, east and west!

In the next moment, all four sides of the Gesun Trading Company"s building exploded. Four streaks of different colored light shot up into the sky from the cracks in the ground, enveloping the ring that was shooting through the air.

At random, the four rings simultaneously emitted a brilliant light. From within, countless inscriptions flew out, sweeping towards the ceiling of the Gesun Trading Company.

The inscriptions in the air seemed to be solid. After connecting together, with the center of the roof as the center, golden chains of inscriptions poured down from all directions, enveloping the entire Gesun Trading Company within them!

An immense pressure from the restriction landed on everyone"s body!

"Hahaha, the Soul-Sealing Array has been completed. Xiang Yun, Xiang Yun, you two brothers can no longer escape even if you have wings!"

Xiang Yun"s expression changed once more. He had never thought that there would be a great formation within the Gesun Trading Company, and each time it grew stronger.

It was not hard to tell from the way Dima had activated the array. The latter was likely a master of array formations with considerable attainments. Xiang Yun could feel the great pressure of this array and feared that even his elder brother might not be able to break it!

However, Xiang Jinglei"s face didn"t reveal any fluctuations in response. He only indifferently looked at Dima and said, "You think that just by trapping me here, you"ll be able to kill me?"

Dima laughed coldly, "Haha, General Xiang, I know you"re a genius, but as far as I know, you"ve only just stepped into the Profound Cloud Realm not too long ago. You should still be a Cloud Realm warrior at the early Profound Cloud Realm, right?"

Xiang Jinglei declined to comment. Dima instead patted the collapsed Xue Badao, "Commander Xue, what are you still standing there for? Your relatives all died at the hands of General Xiang. Don"t you want to personally avenge them?"

Xue Ba"s gaze trembled when he heard this. He glanced at Xiang Jinglei and immediately raised his head to look at Dima.

A cruel smile appeared on Dima"s face. "Killing a Cloud Warrior at the early Profound Cloud Realm should not be a problem for an expert at the peak of the Mysterious Cloud Realm, right?"

"This …" Upon hearing that he was going to kill Xiang Jinglei, Xue Ba immediately hesitated.

Seeing this, Dima ridiculed, "What, Commander Xue, you still want to settle this matter peacefully? Your entire Xue Clan has been uprooted by him, Storm Nation no longer has a place for you, could it be that you wish that he would let you go? "

Now that I have trapped them in a great formation, as long as I kill them both, not only can you fool them, you might even be able to become a new great general in the Cold Wind City. It will be beneficial for your grand plan.

Upon hearing these words, Xue Ba, who originally had a dispirited expression, was slightly startled. His gaze immediately changed as the fierceness and greed gradually surfaced in his eyes. He slowly turned his head to look at Xiang Jinglei!
