Speaking of which, he was very curious about my Spirit Swallowing Mountains and Rivers. Even the leader of the Five Venoms Sect didn't have the ability to set up such an exquisite and invulnerable absolute space.
To some extent, it was a formation, but it was supported by human power.
Protector Ning couldn't understand why I, who was only at the late stage of Transforming Strength, had the power of a vast ocean. It was even more powerful than his True Qi, which was unique to an Earth True Immortal.
In the past hundred years, there hadn't been an example of an Earth True Immortal losing to a Transforming Strength warrior. In the martial arts world, there was a widespread saying — — All below the True Immortal level are ants.
If today's matter were to spread out, it would undoubtedly become the biggest stain in his life and a laughingstock. Protector Ning was a bit hesitant. He had thought of burning his essence blood to save his face, but the risk of doing so was too great.
According to his judgment, I still had half of my combat power left. Moreover, I hadn't summoned my divine weapon, the Golden Snake Sword. In other words, even if he burned his blood, he didn't have much chance of winning.
So, after a short moment of hesitation, he didn't act rashly. He just looked at me unwillingly.
"What do you think? Do you still have the final say here?"
I asked indifferently. Protector Ning didn't say a word in the face of my questioning. He couldn't help but blush.
On the contrary, the soldiers were gloating. This feeling was really gratifying. It must be known that when Protector Ning first came to the barracks, he was arrogant and denied them. He said that it would be better to just send a few warriors. In fact, these soldiers had already done their best to protect the territory of Huaxia day and night, but their ability was limited.
They didn't care about such a self-centered guy. However, Protector Ning had an important position and role. Even the people in charge had to be humble to him, let alone them.
I coldly said, "The Five Poison Sect didn't send you here to indulge in debauchery or to live a carefree life, but to assist these warriors in protecting our country. You, on the other hand, haven't been here for a week. It's no wonder that they found an opportunity to sneak in. Just because of your lust, those patrolmen were completely annihilated and the new missile vehicle was severely damaged. Yet, you still acted as if it didn't matter to you. The moment you came back, you tried to push the blame onto others and scolded them. I really don't know where you got your face from!!!"
Even though my voice wasn't loud, it revealed an indescribable sense of majesty. Even Protector Ning couldn't help but shiver.
"Well said!"
No one knew who it was, but he had spoken out the thoughts of many warriors. They nodded subconsciously.
But when Protector Ning looked around, those people quickly shrunk their heads.
I pondered for a moment and made a decision. Then, I turned to ask Staff Officer Liu, "Those patrolling soldiers haven't been buried yet, right?"
"No." He shook his head.
"Alright, Protector Ning. If you go and apologize to them and send them off, I can let you go." I didn't beat around the bush.
"Apologize?
Brat, aren't you making things difficult for me?!
I am a dignified earth True Immortal expert. Why should I apologize to a group of dead people? "Protector Ning glared at me. He was a little angry.
"Oh, it's fine if you don't want to apologize. Then, you can just go with them," I replied casually, but my eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Protector Ning's expression instantly darkened. This was an undisguised threat. If I had said these words a moment ago, he would have thought that I was boasting shamelessly. But now that I had displayed my unfathomable methods, Protector Ning didn't doubt my words.
"How dare you!
Don't you know that I am the first Protector of the Five Venoms Cult? The Cult Leader's one and only last disciple? His daughter, Murong Xue, and I are childhood friends. If anything happens to me, don't think that you'll have a good life! "
"Haha, there's no use threatening me. Let me tell you clearly, I also have the power of the five venoms. Let's not talk about whether I can defeat your Cult Leader. As long as I am willing to join the Five Venoms Cult, it shouldn't be a problem for me to replace your position, right?"
The corner of my mouth curled into a playful smile. I raised my hand, and a dark green cyclone gathered in my palm.
"Ah …" Protector Ning was stunned at first, then his face darkened. He had to admit that what I said was reasonable.
In the martial arts world, the strong had always been respected. His innate talent and power of understanding could be said to be a monster that hadn't appeared in a hundred years. However, there would always be someone better than him. The brat in front of him was not only immune to the five venoms that he was so proud of, but he had also easily defeated him.
Although mentioning the Cult Leader could have a certain deterrent effect, to be honest, even if the Cult Leader was present, he would probably be desperate for talent. Just like what the brat had said, he could completely replace his position.
Although Protector Ning wanted his face, he also understood that his life and his face were more important. Therefore, after a short moment of hesitation, he made a compromise.
However, the apology that I was referring to was the way of kneeling down and not just brushing him off. I had specially emphasized it. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only bite the bullet and agree. Since he had already lost his face, kneeling down wouldn't make a difference.
In order to prevent Protector Ning from playing tricks, I had personally followed him to supervise. Under my supervision, he 'gave a big bow' to the patrolling soldiers who had sacrificed their lives. Moreover, I had discussed it with Advisor Liu and decided to pay out of my own pocket. The family of each soldier would be given a pension of two million. Since it was only a few million, it was just a drop in the bucket for me. However, it would be able to fundamentally improve the lives of their families.
Advisor Liu shed tears of gratitude. Actually, he had considered the matter of the pension, but he didn't dare to discuss it with the higher-ups. The key point was that he was also short of money. Without a doubt, I had solved his urgent problem.
After doing all this, Advisor Liu made a 'presumptuous request'. He wanted to find out who the spy of Protector Ning was. I readily agreed. Soon, Advisor Liu gathered the people in charge together.
As expected, they all refused to admit it. Moreover, I couldn't see any clues from their expressions. I simply took Protector Ning's phone. Although it had a fingerprint lock, under my request, Protector Ning naturally cooperated and unlocked it.
