After all, Ye Long was of the younger generation. His strength was much weaker than Li Shu's.
Moreover.
Li Shu was a general of the Military Palace and had been fighting for his life on the battlefield.
This was also the reason why he was so ruthless.
Knowing that the matter had been exposed, he directly attacked Ye Long and killed him.
Then, he could push all the blame to Ye Long.
Anyway, he had just arrived at the Military Palace and was the Deputy Commander. He had no supporters.
On the other hand, he was deeply rooted in the Military Palace and many generals were secretly supporting him. As long as there was a way out, he could perfectly resolve this crisis.
Of course, the most important thing was.
The dead told no tales.
"Humph, if I had seen your true face earlier, I would not have colluded with you."
Li Shu said coldly.
Even Fang Chen was taken aback by his actions.
He did not expect that his ally would betray him.
He glanced at the generals and saw the subtle changes on their faces.
The consequences of forming an alliance with Li Shu were so miserable that they had to consider for themselves and weigh the pros and cons.
In short, their hearts were shaken.
The Deputy Commander's eyes flashed and he said coldly, "Li Shu, you're really good at this."
"I don't understand what you're talking about."
Li Shu shook his head and showed an innocent look.
"Your Heilan Battle Group was framed and you want to investigate the truth. I can understand your feelings, so I'm willing to cooperate with your investigation."
"Deputy Commander Ye Long is the executor. There must be someone behind him.
No matter what, we have to find this person. Our Military Palace will not allow such a despicable person to sow discord. "
Li Shu said with righteous indignation. Ordinary ignorant people were already on his side.
Unfortunately, Fang Chen and the Heilan Battle Group were already prepared.
"Li Shu, you still don't admit it?"
The Deputy Commander was aggressive.
"Is this interesting?"
He pointed at the corpses on the ground and sneered, "Vice Commander Ye Long is newly transferred. What ability does he have to mobilize other battle groups? What ability does he have to kill our battle groups?"
"What?
You don't believe me? "
Li Shu frowned and was very unhappy.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Marquis."
"Haha."
Fang Chen chuckled and took out another item from his bosom.
It was a wooden stick the size of a thumb. However, when it appeared, everyone's expressions changed greatly.
They stared at the wooden stick in Fang Chen's hand, dumbfounded.
"Now, what do you have to say?"
Thunderstruck Wood.
In the huge military palace, only General Li Shu had it.
He had shown it to the public before.
In his previous life, Fang Chen had also obtained Thunderstruck Wood and used it.
Therefore, he knew the Thunderstruck Wood like the back of his hand.
"This was discovered at the place where it originated."
Everyone looked at Li Shu with a strange expression.
The latter still forced himself to remain calm.
"What can a piece of Thunderstruck Wood prove?"
Li Shu waved his hand and said disdainfully, "Although I'm the only one in the Military Palace who has the Thunder-struck Wood, how many people in the vast territory of the Carefree Mansion have the Thunder-struck Wood?
Maybe Vice Commander Ye Long colluded with outsiders to kill the people in the military palace? "
In any case, Xiao Chen refused to admit it, pushing all the blame to Ye Long.
Li Shu did not believe that they would dare to convict him.
Moreover, he was a senior general in the Military Palace. Only Duke Xiaoyao was qualified to touch him.
"Still quibbling?"
Before the Vice Commander could speak, the other members of the Heilan Battle Group were already furious.
"How dare you frame our Heilan Battle Group. If you don't give us an explanation today, don't even think about going."
As soon as he finished speaking, a few members of the Heilan Battle Group attacked.
Terrifying auras were released from their bodies. With a stomp of their feet, they floated in the air. Behind them, shadows of black butterflies appeared.
Roar!
Angry roars were heard. Several people joined forces to besiege Li Shu.
"Presumptuous."
Li Shu was furious and counterattacked.
He entered the battle circle and kept attacking with both hands, blocking attacks from all directions.
The Vice Commander looked at Fang Chen, asking with his eyes.
The latter signaled him to calm down.
As expected.
The battle stopped abruptly after more than ten moves.
Because.
Li Shu, who was in the middle of the battle, was forced to retreat by the joint forces of several people. His clothes were torn and something fell out.
Clang.
A charred wooden stick fell to the ground.
"This is … Thunder-struck wood."
Someone recognized the charred wooden stick.
As for Fang Chen, he reacted quickly and put it away in an instant.
"Give it back to me."
Li Shu said angrily.
Under everyone's gaze, Fang Chen picked up the Thunder-struck wood and pieced it together with the Thunder-struck wood he had obtained before.
What was shocking was that after the two pieces of Thunder-struck wood were pieced together, there were no traces of them being pieced together.
What did this mean?
"It's really you."
The Vice Commander's eyes were sharp as he said coldly.
The Thunder-struck wood that the Commander obtained from the scene was completely cut from the piece of Thunder-struck wood on Li Shu's body. The traces were exactly the same.
Irrefutable evidence.
"What else do you want to say?"
The Vice Commander took a step forward with an imposing manner.
The other generals were extremely surprised.
Some generals who were close to Li Shu shook their heads when they saw this situation. They quietly retreated, fearing that they would be implicated by Li Shu.
Li Shu's face was ferocious. He stared at Fang Chen fiercely, wishing he could tear him into pieces.
"Damn bastard."
Li Shu flew into a rage out of humiliation and wanted to kill Fang Chen.
Unfortunately.
The Black Orchid Battle Group was already prepared. Thousands of people formed a battle formation and trapped Li Shu.
"Li Shu killed his compatriots in the Military Palace. This is a heinous crime. I have decided to execute him on the spot."
Seeing that someone was about to make a move, Fang Chen added, "If anyone dares to plead for mercy, they will be regarded as accomplices."
As soon as these words came out, everyone quieted down.
They knew.
After today, the Military Palace would be completely in the hands of the Commander.
"Kill."
Li Shu's eyes were red. He could not care so much anymore. As long as the green hills are there, there will be firewood.
As long as he could escape from here and save his life, there would be plenty of opportunities for revenge in the future.
"You're dead."
But.
Although the Black Orchid Battle Group was a group of troublemakers, their combat strength was also very strong.
Especially their thousand-man battle formation. Once formed, even a Sage would find it difficult to escape.
In the blink of an eye, Li Shu was covered with wounds.
"Die."
The Vice Commander personally suppressed Li Shu.
He smashed Li Shu's head with a palm.
A hero of a generation fell just like that.
He would never have dreamed that he would die in the hands of the Black Orchid Battle Group that he had always regarded as a troublemaker and wanted to get rid of.
With Li Shu's death, the framing incident had come to an end.
After this incident, Fang Chen had the absolute right to speak in the Military Palace.
And the Black Orchid Battle Group also chose to stand on his side.
"It's finally settled."
Fang Chen shook his head.
He did not want these trivial matters to waste his time.
