During the chaos, Song Gui acted like he was drunk and quietly approached the teleportation formation.
Using this chance where no one was looking, he swiftly took out the formation breaking talisman and pasted it onto the teleportation formation. A white light flashed and disappeared; the formation instantly stopped working.
As the teleportation formation was a prohibited area, no one noticed this anomaly.
Right after Song Gui sneaked away from the teleportation formation, a furious roar sounded out; the fury within the voice could burn one into ashes, ”A**holes, what do you think you are doing?”
Raising their heads, it was actually Yuan Ping and his Personal Guards.
Who knows why, but Yuan Ping felt uneasy during this entire night. He felt that something was off, so he brought the Personal Guards into the city to patrol.
Who would have thought that when he came to the most important teleportation formation, he would see the soldiers eating chicken and drinking wine, playing as if they were having the time of their lives. Obviously, he would be furious.
”Who's your officer? Tell him to see me.”
Yuan Ping's face was dark; his eyes were cold like that of a venomous snake.
When the soldiers heard his words, they felt a shiver run down their spines, and they did not dare to speak.
”It's me!”
Song Gui had smoothly completed the mission, so his mood was extremely good. However, he acted like he was terrified on the surface, stumbling to the front of Yuan Ping and bowing.
”Bastard!”
Seeing Song Gui's flushed red face, Yuan Ping was filled with anger and kicked out.
'Wu!'
This kick was not soft; Song Wu grabbed his stomach, shriveling up in pain.
When the surrounding soldiers saw this scene, they were furious.
No matter what, Song Gui was their officer, so how could he be humiliated like that?
Within alliances there was never a master-servant relationship. Strictly speaking, Yuan Ping had no power over them.
Seeing that, with a 'Shua!' the Personal Guards behind Yuan Ping orderly pulled out their weapons. When the soldiers saw that, they were all the more furious and some bold ones even took out their weapons.
The atmosphere on the streets instantly froze, and it looked like a conflict was about to occur.
Despite that, Yuan Ping was expressionless.
”No one move!”
Song Gui tried to get up, preventing his men from doing anything foolish.
”Colonel!” The soldiers were aggrieved.
Song Gui waved his hand, once again bowing to Yuan Ping, ”I've failed my job; I'm willing to be punished!”
When Yuan Ping saw his actions, he paid attention to this person for the first time.
This person was not simple!
”What's your name and which territory do you belong to?” Yuan Ping asked.
”I'm Song Gui from Huadong County.”
”Are you interested in joining my camp?” Yuan Ping asked unexpectedly. Due to his desire for talents, he was actually poaching in public.
When the surrounding soldiers heard his words, they all exchanged glances.
”Thank you mister, but the Huadong County Lord has treated me well. I'm indebted to him, so I will not leave him.”
Yuan Ping liked him more and more, ”Loyal, not bad.”
”But!”
Yuan Ping's face changed quickly, his expression becoming exceedingly solemn, ”You did not do your duty, so you have to be punished.”
”Men!”
”Present!”
”30 strokes of the whip immediately!” Yuan Ping did not give him any face.
”Yes, my Lord!”
”Execute the one who sent the chicken. I've already said that this place is a prohibited area and anyone who gets close will be killed.” Yuan Ping said.
Song Gui was being brought down. When he heard those words, his body froze, and his fist was clenched tight.
Gritting his teeth, he loosened his fist in the end.
'That was a brother that had fought alongside him!'
In olden times, whip punishment was extremely cruel. After 30 whips, Song Gui could not even stand, and he had to be helped to the infirmary to treat his wounds. At the same time, his regiment was also swapped with another one.
After that slight hiccup, the night regained its calmness once more.
Just as Yuan Ping was ready to leave, the regiment followed the procedure to check the teleportation formation.
This check scared them silly.
”Lord not good!”
”What happened?” Yuan Ping's heart shook.
”The teleportation formation is broken.”
”What?”
Yuan Ping charged toward the teleportation formation like he was crazy. Looking at the teleportation formation that was totally quiet, his face turned ashen white, ”It's the formation breaking talisman.”
”Damn it, it was Song Gui!” Yuan Ping's eyes were red with fury.
”Men!”
