Chapter 96 Disrespectful People
How proud a man was Chen Dao.
In all the land, no one could make him lower his proud head, except for Ye Ling.
The ever-arrogant Chen Dao, now being provoked by Shi Buyun, how could he possibly endure it.
A terrifying murderous aura burst forth from Chen Dao, like a wild storm, instantly sweeping in all directions.
"Stand down!"
But before Chen Dao could make a move against Shi Buyun, Ye Ling's voice entered Chen Dao's ears.
Despite being full of anger and murderous intent, Chen Dao dared not disobey Ye Ling's order.
Without any hesitation, Chen Dao coldly swept Shi Buyun with a glance, then obediently stood by Ye Ling's side.
"Hmph! This is the Southern Border, did you think this was your Northern Liao?"
Shi Buyun glanced at Chen Dao, saying with a lingering fear in his heart.
When Chen Dao's murderous intent erupted earlier, it made him feel as if he fell into an ice cellar.
Secretly amazed by the strength of Northern Liao, but as Ye Ling suddenly spoke to have Chen Dao stand down, Shi Buyun thought Ye Ling was worried that making enemies in the Southern Border would lead to uncontrollable consequences.
Even Ye Ling, as the Northern Liao King, had to bow his head to him, a military strategist, in the Southern Border, didn't he?
"Subordinates are subordinates, after all, they can't compare to their master when it comes to vision!"
Shi Buyun once again spoke coldly.
Ye Ling, however, did not pay him any mind, as if he hadn't heard his provocative words at all.
"Shi Buyun, you are the military strategist of the Southern Border army, so you must be very familiar with the rules of our Dragon Kingdom!"
"Let me ask you, within the rules of the Dragon Kingdom, how should one be punished for showing disrespect to the kings of the four great battle zones?"
Ye Ling's indifferent voice slowly rose.
The smile on Shi Buyun's face stiffened and froze right there on his face.
His gaze fell on Ye Ling, flickering uncertainly.
"According to the rules of our Dragon Kingdom, those who dare to offend the kings of the four great battle zones, regardless of who they are or what background they have, shall be killed without mercy!"
At that moment, a cold yet domineering voice suddenly came from not far away!
As the voice faded, a middle-aged man appeared within everyone's view, dressed in a white training outfit and carrying a broadsword on his back.
This was why Shen Lingyun and Shi Buyun dared to be so reckless in front of Ye Ling, the once esteemed Northern Liao King.
"Considering that you two have shed blood and sweated for the Dragon Country in guarding the Southern Border, I can give you a chance!"
Seeing their attitude, Ye Ling snorted coldly and said.
Upon hearing this, Shi Buyun's brows furrowed, and with a disdainful look towards Ye Ling, he sneered, "Do I need you to give me a chance? Do you really think you are still the same Northern Liao King that once shook the Dragon Country three years ago?"
"Let's hear it. I actually want to see if the renowned Northern Liao King is truly as powerful as the rumors say!"
Shen Lingyun also sneered coldly, his eyes filled with a towering fighting intent as he watched Ye Ling.
Observing their utterly different reactions, Ye Ling scorned in his heart.
Yet his face remained impassive as he said indifferently, "Strength will speak for itself!"
"I'll stand right here. If you two, working together, can make me move a step, I'll admit defeat and immediately leave the Southern Border with my people!"
"From this day forth, I, Ye Ling, will not set foot in the Southern Border ever again!"
At these words, a glint of light shone in Shi Buyun's eyes!
Ever since the Southern Border King vanished, he, the military strategist, had always harbored the desire to claim the position of the Southern Border King.
However, whether it was the commanders of the various army regiments in the Southern Border Army or the powerful soldiers within it, not one supported him.
In the Southern Border, the Southern Border King was an existence supreme above ten thousand people.
All the generals holding real power who wouldn't want to sit on that throne, commanding the countless armies of the Southern Border.
Therefore, Shi Buyun had endured humiliation and secretly developed his forces.
After years of strategizing, the power he controlled had ostensibly become the strongest force within the Southern Border Army.
But Ye Ling's sudden personal arrival in the Southern Border Army was something Shi Buyun could not tolerate!
"I hope the Northern Liao King does not go back on his word then!"
Shi Buyun said impatiently.
Ye Ling glanced at him and said disdainfully, "Do I need to deceive a mere military strategist like you?"
"That's for the best!"
Shi Buyun replied coolly, unfazed.
Meanwhile, Shen Lingyun, with his hand on the broadsword at his back, spoke with an unpleasant expression, "The only way I attack is with this broadsword. If it wounds the Northern Liao King..."
