"Oh?"
When Lin Xiao heard this, he was rather curious and could not help but ask, "Do you know what level Zheng Yin's strength has reached?"
"Of course!"
The shadow nodded and revealed Zheng Yin's cultivation level.
"Level 7 Heaven Immortal?"
Lin Xiao was in disbelief. He did not expect Zheng Yin to be so powerful. Excluding the shadow, the most powerful person under him was only a Level 1 Earth Immortal.
The gap was not small at all!
Although he had a trump card, 'Designated Summon', which could activate Yang Jian in his godly state and increase his cultivation level, he was still limited by his cultivation level and could not restore Yang Jian to his peak state.
Therefore, he did not want to use this trump card unless he had no other choice.
"That's right!
He is a Level 7 Heaven Immortal! "
The shadow nodded and said with certainty, "Other than Commander Zheng, he has three other Vice Commanders who are also Heaven Immortal experts. They are the true core of the Southern Army of the Great Quan Dynasty."
Four Heaven Immortal experts!
No wonder Wang Batian did not attack Zheng Yin. Other than the fact that Zheng Yin was his son-in-law, he was also powerful enough to deter Wang Batian.
Otherwise, with Wang Batian's suspicious personality, he might not even trust his son-in-law!
Next, the shadow explained the situation of the Southern Army to Lin Xiao. The Six-winged Flying Dragon brought them to the sky above the Southern Army.
Looking down at the situation from mid-air, Shadow said to Lin Xiao, "Young Master, we're not far from the Southern Legion's encampment now. You can let the Six-winged Wyvern land. I'll bring you to see Legion Commander Zheng Yin in a while."
"Okay."
Lin Xiao nodded and asked worriedly, "But Zheng Yin has a high status in the Southern Army. I don't think we can meet him whenever we want to, right?"
"Young Master, you can rest assured!"
The shadow smiled and explained awkwardly, "To be honest, my surname is also Zheng. Zheng Yin is my father, so …"
Lin Xiao, "???"
The shadow was Zheng Yin's son?
Instead of being the heir of the Southern Army, he chose to be a shadow in the Prime Minister's residence. What was he thinking?
Seeing Lin Xiao's confusion, the shadow smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "My birth mother was of humble birth and couldn't marry Zheng Yin. In order to win over Zheng Yin, Wang Batian married his daughter to him and secretly killed my mother. Therefore, although I'm Zheng Yin's son, I'm also an existence that can't be seen in the light!"
"What?"
When Lin Xiao heard Shadow's words, he looked at Shadow sympathetically and said with righteous indignation, "Wang Batian is too hateful!
How can you treat human life like grass? What about Zheng Yin? Are you just going to watch your mother be executed? "
"It's a long story."
The shadow sighed and continued, "At that time, Zheng Yin was still working for Lin Xiaotian. At that time, he was young and impetuous. In addition, his cultivation and talent were good and his vision was relatively high. He fell in love with Miss Lin, who was your Eldest Aunt, Lin Yunying. However, Miss Lin finally chose to be with Fang Tianguang. Zheng Yin was frustrated and got drunk. Then he had sex with Miss Lin's maid, my mother, and then I was born."
At this point, the shadow took a deep breath and calmed herself down before continuing, "He had no feelings for my mother at all. He didn't even know that my mother had secretly given birth to me. He didn't even know that Wang Batian had attacked my mother. How could he stand up for my mother?"
"Well … Okay!"
Lin Xiao felt a little sorry for mentioning the shadow's sad story. He reached out and patted the shadow on the shoulder and continued, "Then you grew up with my Eldest Aunt?
When did Zheng Yin find out about your existence?
How did he treat you? "
"Yes, I grew up with Miss Lin. In order to ensure my safety, Miss Lin had been hiding my identity. It wasn't until Zheng Yin accidentally discovered it ten years ago that he knew of my existence."
The shadow's emotions calmed down a little before he continued, "Perhaps out of guilt for my mother, Zheng Yin treated me quite well."
"Well, I understand."
It seemed that Zheng Yin was still a person who valued friendship. With the shadow's relationship, he had more confidence in persuading Zheng Yin.
However, if Zheng Yin could feel guilty for a maid who had no feelings for him, he would probably have deep feelings for the princess who had accompanied him for decades.
It would not be easy to persuade him!
Just as Lin Xiao was thinking about this, the Six-winged Flying Dragon had landed on the ground. The shadow took him to the barracks of the Southern Legion.
"Who is it?
How dare you break into the barracks! "
Just as the shadow took Lin Xiao and was about to openly meet Zheng Yin from the barracks, a group of armored soldiers stopped them.
This made the shadow feel very awkward.
After all, just a second ago, he had vowed that he would definitely be able to see Zheng Yin. Now, he was stopped outside the barracks. He frowned and said, "Go and pass on the message. Tell them that Zheng Yun wants to see him!"
"Zheng Yun?"
The leading soldier looked at the shadow suspiciously.
Due to the shadow's awkward identity, no one in the barracks knew him. However, seeing that his surname was also Zheng and his solemn vow, the soldiers were worried that the shadow was a distant relative of Zheng Yin. Thus, they did not dare to offend him too much.
At this moment, a man in general's armor walked out. He looked the shadow up and down and said rudely, "You bastard, how dare you come!"
"Is this how you speak to your brother?!"
Being called a bastard, even a clay figurine would get angry. The shadow's eyes narrowed as a trace of anger shot out from them.
However, the young general was not afraid at all. Instead, he laughed exaggeratedly. "Hahahahaha … Brother?
Are you worthy?
You're just a lowly lowly person. How dare you call me brother?
What a joke! "
"You!"
Hearing the young general insult his mother, the shadow could no longer hold back. He slapped the young general's face and said angrily, "It doesn't matter if you don't acknowledge me, but you can't insult me and my mother!"
"You … How dare you hit me!"
The young general did not expect the shadow to hit him. He held his swollen cheek and shouted angrily, "Are you all dead?!
Hurry up and take this traitor down! "
"This …"
Hearing this, the other soldiers looked at each other.
After all, they had heard the conversation between the shadow and the young general. This young man was Commander Zheng's son. Even if he was an illegitimate child, they could not afford to offend him.
Besides, this young man's aura had probably reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Even if they wanted to offend him, they could not!
