I am a master of both medicine and martial arts; after my release from prison, I will dominate the w

"Bang—!"

The door was kicked open.

Qin Jiangdu led his men straight into the command room. When he saw Wei Daosheng, he paused for a moment.

"My lord, you're here too."

"Yeah, I'm here too. You're here?" Wei Daosheng said a meaningless question without any expression.

Qin Jiangdu immediately suppressed the emotions he had been building up.

"My son was given a critical mission, but his troops mutinied, and his fate is now unknown. I want to hear Xiao Zhanshen's explanation."

Xiao Yuening displayed a maturity beyond her years, her beautiful eyes half-closed, staring blankly at Qin Jiangdu.

"Minister Qin, you've come all this way, bringing the military inspection team in. What exactly did I do wrong?"

Qin Jiangdu snorted coldly and sneered, "As the commander of the East China Sea Military Region, doesn't your troop mutiny violate military regulations?"

Xiao Yuening nodded slightly: "The mutiny in the troops, from the bottom up, is something no one can escape. It is my responsibility, Xiao Yuening, to bear, and I will not shirk it."

Qin Jiangdu suddenly sighed, "Alas! Qin Yan is my only son, how can I, as his father, not be anxious? How about this, you come with me to the underground fortress and see what those mutineers are demanding. If we can fulfill their demands, we'll do our best to do so."

Before Xiao Yuening could speak, Qin Jiangdu looked at Chu Yang.

"Hey? I heard that President Su and his family were also exceptionally sent to the fortress. Why don't you come and take a look too?"

Chu Yang picked up Xiao Yuening's coffee cup, gulped it down in one go, and then wiped his mouth.

"I'll go with you. War God Xiao still needs to stay at the central command camp."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiangdu immediately looked at Xiao Yuening: "This matter is of great importance; he cannot replace the East China Sea military commander."

Xiao Yuening handed his tiger tally directly to Chu Yang.

"Anyone who disobeys orders will be killed without exception!"

Chu Yang clasped his hands in a solemn gesture and said, "Yes!"

"No! Who...who is he to entrust such an important military tally to him?"

Chu Yang's lips curled into a sneer. "Don't play dumb. Someone already told you who I am, didn't they? Should I take out my token?"

"No need!"

Qin Jiangdu answered very quickly.

Not only did he know that Chu Yang was the Dragon Shadow Inspector, but Chu Song also told him everything that happened at the Baoyuan Auction House that morning.

"I know that all the elite troops have been sent out. But I don't want War God Xiao to send a bunch of rabble. Isn't the Divine Might Battalion still idle? Why not just send Chen Gang with his men?"

Xiao Yuening frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then nodded: "No problem!"

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Qin Jiangdu's face.

As he was leaving, Xiao Yuening coughed twice and called out to Chu Yang in an icy tone, "You come in here!"

Chu Yang was taken aback, but still followed Xiao Yuening to his lounge.

"What's wrong?"

"This time, I plan to play dirty tricks on Qin Jiangdu..."

After hearing Xiao Yuening's plan, Chu Yang gave him a thumbs up: "Truly a military genius! I'll be going now!"

"etc!"

Xiao Yuening called out, his eyes began to wander, he swallowed hard, as if he had made a great decision, and his body stiffened as he pressed against Chu Yang's chest.

"I'm sorry about your wife and that vixen! But I really didn't mean it."

The contrast between the tough, hardened female warrior and her soft words was quite unexpected for Chu Yang.

"I didn't blame you, and I'm actually grateful that you offered to take care of both families for me."

As he spoke, he could feel Xiao Yuening's heart beating rapidly.

Xiao Yuening bit her red lips, closed her eyes, and steeled her resolve.

"If you help me resolve things over there, I'll agree to your request from last night."

Her voice grew softer and softer.

Chu Yang was completely stunned. "My request?"

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and his heart began to pound violently.

"No way? We can play musical instruments now?"

Xiao Yuening blushed and pushed Chu Yang away.

"Chu Yang! You...you're shameless! Why did you say that? Get out of here!"

Chu Yang swallowed hard, his heart pounding at the thought that this proud female war god would actually do that...

Although she felt guilty, Chu Yang felt he had found the key to understanding the proud and arrogant female war god.

Last time, feeling guilty, I took the initiative to kiss him; this time, I did it even more...

Suppressing his excitement, Chu Yang gave a few instructions and hurriedly left.

At the foot of Yulong Mountain, in a military-controlled area, a four-meter-high wall stands tall, and the gate is tightly closed.

The underground fortress is located inside the walls.

After glancing at the military tally, Chen Gang, the battalion commander of the Shenwei Battalion, gave a lazily salute.

"What do you want me to do for you next?"

Chu Yang ignored Chen Gang's attitude and asked, "How many mutinous soldiers are inside the walls? What are our chances of winning if we attack?"

Chen Gang scoffed dismissively: "There aren't many people inside, and they're mostly old, weak, and disabled soldiers. We're just afraid of a frontal attack; they might hurt the hostages. I heard you're quite capable, and your wife is still inside."

Chu Yang hummed in agreement.

Chen Gang continued, "If I were you, I would have rushed in long ago."

Qin Jiangdu frowned and said, "Chen Gang, how can you talk like that?"

Chen Gang's attitude immediately became respectful: "Minister Qin, I'm doing this for his own good. Just now, the people inside threatened to kill a few unimportant people who got in through nepotism first."

Qin Jiangdu nodded in agreement and said, "Mr. Chu, if you ask me, you shouldn't go. It's too dangerous inside."

Chu Yang nodded very seriously: "That's right! Old Qin, you shouldn't go either. If your son dies, you can just have another one."

Qin Jiangdu and Chen Gang exchanged a glance, their faces full of confusion.

Chu Yang continued, "In a bit, let Chen Gang lead his men to start the fight. I want to see which bastards are causing trouble inside."

Qin Jiangdu hurriedly waved his hand: "Those inside are all political figures from Donghai. If something happens, Donghai's politics and economy will face paralysis. I'll go over there right away and see if I can communicate with them."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Gang and said, "You stay with Mr. Chu."

Watching Qin Jiangdu leave, Chu Yang picked up his phone.

"Hey! War God Xiao, I've arrived. I'd like to give you a brief report."

As he spoke, he walked toward the nearby woods, glancing back every now and then to see if anyone was following him.

Chen Gang's heart sank, and he quickly and quietly followed.

As soon as he entered the woods, he saw several almost imperceptible silver lights approaching.

He felt as if his whole body had been injected with a muscle-stabilizing agent, and he was unable to move.

"What...what do you want to do?"

Chu Yang patted Chen Gang's face and sneered, "You've embezzled a lot of military funds over the years. Your wife has also used your influence to amass a fortune and bully many people. Last month, your mother took a fancy to a gold shop, and you directly led people to rob it."

Chen Gang shouted angrily, "Bullshit! You're making baseless accusations!"

Chu Yang smiled and made a video call.

In the video, the walls of the dark cell are covered with mold.

In the dim light, Gu Ao held a blood-stained leather whip in his hand.

"Don't worry, he's still breathing."

Chu Yang said "Oh," and added, "Whether he lives or dies doesn't matter. Why don't you go and check on Lord Chen's family?"

Gu Ao responded and pointed the screen at the two iron frames behind him.

On the iron frame, Chen Gang's mother and wife had disheveled hair, their clothes were so badly lashed by whips that they could no longer cover their bodies, and were covered in blood.

"Son, you'd better do what they say, or I'll be beaten to death."

"Honey, I can't take it anymore... Waaah..."
