Facing the other party's gaze, Ye Li was naturally not afraid at all, and didn't even blink.
When Zhou Wentian saw Ye Li's appearance, he felt inexplicably dissatisfied.
As the leader of the Zhenxi Army, his official position was half a level higher than that of Bian Yingxiong, and he was also the eldest prince's trusted confidant. Most people would tremble in fear when they saw him.
Even though Bian Yingxiong was from the opposing camp, he had to be respectful to him at least. He would not be like Ye Li, who had no respect for him at all.
“Boy, I think you still don’t understand, I am the witness of your evaluation of this defensive battle.
Your Jinzhou City Guards only fought a small-scale defensive battle that was unnecessary. The reason why you lost so many men was obviously due to improper command.
It is hard to tell whether your battle was a merit or a fault, and you even dare to say that you didn't get the soul seal. Then I will definitely report to the court and say that Bian Yingxiong is derelict in his duty.
As for you, I suspect that you have embezzled the Soul Seal and deceived everyone in Jinzhou City. You must hand over the Soul Seal, otherwise I don't mind using some means to make you surrender."
As Zhou Wentian spoke, he casually fabricated charges against Bian Yingxiong and Ye Li, with an extremely smug and mocking look in his eyes.
Hearing his words, Ye Li felt a surge of anger in his heart. He did embezzle the soul seal, but the defenders of Jinzhou City had indeed gone through an extremely difficult and arduous battle to defend Jinzhou City.
The painful expressions on the faces of the soldiers who died beside him in Jinzhou City had not yet disappeared from his sight, and someone dared to wipe out their achievements. How could Ye Li not be angry
"You despicable and shameless bastard, which of those soldiers did not devote their lives to the city of Jinzhou
How you high-ranking officials fight is up to you, but if you deprive the defenders of Jinzhou City of their merits, and those soldiers who sacrificed their lives don't even have enough compensation, what will happen to their wives and daughters?"
Ye Li said to Zhou Wentian while gritting his teeth.
When Zhou Wentian heard Ye Li insulting him, his eyebrows stood up instantly. He stretched out his hand and slapped the table hard, then he stood up suddenly.
"You little bastard, how do you talk to your Grandpa Zhou? Do you know who I am
I am the commander of the Zhenxi Army, and I am so many levels higher than you, a commoner. How dare you insult me
You think you are such a big shot. Believe it or not, I will report this to the imperial court immediately, label you as an imperial spy, and hunt you down thousands of miles away!!!"
Zhou Wentian's face was trembling, saliva was flying from his mouth, and anger was boiling in his eyes.
Hearing the noise, Bian Yingxiong pushed open the door and rushed in. It seemed that he did not go far and had been waiting outside the house.
"What's going on? General Zhou, why are you so angry? Please calm down. Ye Li is a child after all, and he doesn't know how to control his words."
Bian Yingxiong hurried forward, trying to smooth things over.
However, Ye Li did not give him this chance at all. He just sneered, his aura rising, and he pressed towards Zhou Wentian fiercely.
In Zhou Wentian's eyes, Ye Li seemed to have instantly transformed into a mountain of swords made of gold and iron, which was not only thousands of feet high, but also extremely sharp.
Ye Li, who obtained the two lines of gold and earth soul seals, had a bit of gold and earth temperament added to his aura, as if mountains and blades were condensed in his soul.
Under the pressure of his powerful aura, Bian Yingxiong could not help but retreat three steps before he could stand firm, while Zhou Wentian was so frightened that his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
Ye Li stretched out his right hand, grabbed Zhou Wentian by the collar, and pulled him up from the ground.
“You may indeed be powerful and have people hunting me down all over the world, but so what? Killing you is as easy as crushing an ant.
You are probably used to being in a high position and think that everyone has to give you face and no one dares to disobey you.
Well, I’m here to tell you today, don’t think that you can do anything to me just because you have power. I can kill you or wipe out your entire family at any time.
The one who dared to stroke the tiger's beard was not me but you. You actually had the guts to threaten to kill me in person. What can you do to me if I crush you to death now
At worst, I can escape to the Yuan Dynasty and still live well there.
Do you think your eldest prince will start a war and attack the Yuan Dynasty for you?"
Ye Li's face was full of murderous intent as he spoke. Although he was not very old, he had killed many people. The murderous aura he had accumulated was very shocking. Combined with the oppressive force brought by his strength, it was simply not something Zhou Wentian could bear.
Zhou Wentian was still trying to struggle in his mind, but his body was shaking uncontrollably in Ye Li's hands. His legs were as soft as noodles and he almost couldn't hold back the urge to pee in his bladder.
"You...you..."
Zhou Wentian struggled for a long time with a red face and only squeezed out two words from his mouth. He really didn't dare to provoke Ye Li anymore.
It was not until this moment that he truly believed that Ye Li was indeed at the Divine Phase stage and was infinitely stronger than him.
"What are you talking about? I'm telling you, listen to me carefully.
I never touched the two soul seals, they dissipated on their own on the battlefield, so this matter has nothing to do with me.
In addition, the defenders of Jinzhou City faced the enemy's Yinling Army, repelled the enemy twice, and finally disrupted the enemy's siege plan. This is definitely an extraordinary achievement.
If you dare to interfere and secretly reduce the achievements of everyone, so that those soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country and made great contributions cannot even get sufficient compensation, then I will definitely come to you in person.
Remember this, you can't stop me from killing you.
Even if you find a Shinto master to protect you, I wonder how long he can protect you.
I am still young, I am confident that I can advance to the Shinto stage within ten years, I want to see if the person you found can protect you for ten years!!!"
The threat launched by Ye Li based on his own strength is definitely much more powerful than the threat launched by the other party based on his own identity. For the first time in his life, Zhou Wentian felt fear from the bottom of his heart.
Considering Ye Li's age, he does have unlimited possibilities. Zhou Wentian knows that everything Ye Li said just now can indeed come true.
Ye Li could indeed leave the Tang Kingdom and go to any country.
With his cultivation level at the Divine Phase Stage, he would be able to secure a high position whether he went to the Great Yuan Kingdom or the White Lotus Kingdom.
With Ye Li's potential, one day he might become a talisman saint, transcending the country.
Zhou Wentian is just a commander of the Zhenxi Army. By then, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty might tie him up personally and hand him over to Ye Li for punishment in exchange for his forgiveness.
After all, this world has always respected strength. People with strong strength are born to be superior. The so-called official positions and identities are simply unnecessary embellishments.
