Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 226 - 50: The Hidden Blade Unsheathed After Years! T

So, he was not only General Yue’s youngest son but also his only son.

"Dead?"

Although Lei Zheng didn’t explicitly ntion the fate of General Yue’s youngest son, from his expression, Ye Liuyun could almost guess the answer.

"Yes!"

Lei Zheng didn’t deny it, instead, he nodded.

"General Yue invited the Imperial Physician from the palace, but the response given was that the Junior General advanced too rapidly, harming his foundation, resulting in a hidden illness within, leading to his sudden death."

As Yue Xiu’s forr deputy, Lei Zheng had witnessed many things firsthand.

When talking about this, a mocking smile hung on his lips.

"The Junior General neither took any pills nor practiced any demon skills, his advancents were step by step, how could he have hard his foundation?"

",,,"

So, the death of General Yue’s youngest son was not an accident, huh?

This made Ye Liuyun’s mind beco more active.

"Was it the old emperor’s doing?"

"!"

These words made Lei Zheng, who was speaking about the matter with anger in his eyes, suddenly freeze.

He looked at Ye Liuyun in astonishnt, seemingly puzzled as to how the latter could guess it.

"Isn’t it simple? How many in the entire Great Qian could make the Imperial Physician say such things? Isn’t it common knowledge that a tree that stands out in the forest gets destroyed by the wind? The old emperor could tolerate having a General of Border Defense, but he probably couldn’t tolerate that this General of Border Defense has successors!"

Even though I’ve never t him.

Just by hearing Lei Zheng’s description, Ye Liuyun could imagine the talent and splendor of General Yue’s youngest son.

I was able to break through so quickly.

Purely by stacking so many talent entries.

Ye Liuyun estimated that General Yue’s son must have had at least one or two gold-quality talent entries, and they were more of the growth type.

"Your analysis is correct!"

Lei Zheng still found it unbelievable.

Sothing they hadn’t figured out back then, Ye Liuyun figured out just by listening to my description?

It’s absurd.

It feels like all those military strategies I read were for nothing.

"Do you want to guess how the General handled this issue?"

"He probably told you all to stay still, hidden and dormant, right?"

",,,"

Stop guessing, for heaven’s sake.

He wanted to stump Ye Liuyun a bit, but this guess hit the mark.

It’s sowhat frustrating, isn’t it?

"How did you guess that? The General has four hundred thousand troops, and he himself is a Grandmaster, though not a Grandmaster at the highest level, but if he forms a military array, he could even kill a Grandmaster at the highest level!"

Yue Xiu, General Yue’s cultivation is at Grandmaster’s perfect level!

Though not a Grandmaster at the highest level.

But because this life’s cultivation was honed knife by knife on the battlefield, it’s completely different from the secluded cultivation of a martial artist from the Jianghu.

At the sa realm, a general’s combat power would be higher.

Moreover, the cultivation technique Yue Xiu practiced could condense militant force, greatly amplifying his power in a short ti.

Yue Xiu once used this move to fiercely slay a martial artist at the mid-stage of Grandmaster.

This battle established the prestige of the General of Border Defense.

So, when those around Yue Xiu realized that the Junior General’s death might be related to the old emperor, the collective anger was palpable, almost wishing to charge into the Imperial City with blades drawn.

But Yue Xiu stopped them.

Without giving any explanation, he simply ordered the generals to go ho, forbidding anyone to act without his command.

After several years passed, everyone thought General Yue had grown indifferent to the matter.

"Why do you think you’re a subordinate, while others are generals?"

"???"

No, when I asked you to analyze, it wasn’t to put down.

Were it not for being in the court, Lei Zheng would have cursed.

"If General Yue truly acted back then, whether the old emperor would die is unknown, but all of you would certainly die. A true general doesn’t act out of montary impulse."

Even if the old emperor hadn’t secluded himself back then, he was still a Grandmaster at the highest level.

Plus, there was also Pri Minister Fu Zhengqing.

Though unsure of Fu Zhengqing’s true loyalty to the old emperor, if Yue Xiu did storm the Imperial City, Fu Zhengqing would definitely intervene.

Two Grandmasters at the highest level.

Forget four hundred thousand troops.

Even if another four hundred thousand ca, it would be aningless.

In front of Grandmasters at the highest level, numbers have no significance.

"But,,"

Lei Zheng wanted to refute, but for a mont, he found it difficult.

"So, we’re not avenging the Junior General? Ever since he died, the General hasn’t drawn his sword. We’re worried that the General might have a psychological shadow from this, unwilling to act anymore."

Lei Zheng and his n were all brought out from the battlefield by Yue Xiu, one by one.

They held a special sentint for Yue Xiu.

It’s fair to say the generals of the Great Qian Dynasty might not heed the emperor’s orders, but they would surely obey Yue Xiu’s.

Precisely because of his high prestige, it might have seed as if his accomplishnts overshadowed his master, causing him to be targeted.

"Who knows?"

For Lei Zheng’s resentful question, Ye Liuyun just slightly curled his lips.

Not avenging?

Probably not the case.

Ye Liuyun’s gaze pierced through the crowd, focusing on Yue Xiu, the head of the generals. The aning of the previous talent entry was now clear.

"Target: Yue Xiu.

Cultivation: Grandmaster’s perfect level.

Talent entries: Military Prowess (Gold), Accumulate Power (Purple), Martial Valor (Purple), Tactical Mastery (Blue),"

"Military Prowess (Gold): Greatly enhances strength through the condensation of militant force."
