The airship landed in an open area at the Military Department airport.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Wang Teng, Zhou Xuanwu, and the others stepped down from the airship.
The three of them had almost been walking side by side, but when the Three Marshals came forward to greet them, Zhou Xuanwu and Xiao Nanfeng tacitly slowed by a step, allowing Wang Teng to walk ahead.
Wang Teng noticed their actions and could not help but be stunned.
Not only was he stunned, but the Three Marshals and the officers behind them were also momentarily taken aback, finding it somewhat unbelievable.
No way...?
Wang Teng might not have understood, but how could they not?
Zhou Xuanwu and Xiao Nanfeng were silently indicating that Wang Teng deserved the greatest credit for this operation!
One was a General, the other a Lieutenant General, yet they had actually lost to a young man who had only recently been promoted to Major General!
And they even looked thoroughly convinced by the result.
How could everyone not be shocked?
However, the Three Marshals quickly came back to their senses. They stepped forward, patted Wang Teng on the shoulder, and smiled approvingly. "Well done! You truly didn't disappoint us!"
"It was everyone's achievement. I couldn't have done it alone," Wang Teng said somewhat guiltily.
After all, he had plundered a vast amount of the Black Bandits' wealth and treasures. He really felt he had let down the praise of the three Marshals.
If they found out that he had pocketed the Black Bandits' most important possessions, they probably would not be treating him so pleasantly and looking so gratified. They might very well take the lead in beating him to death.
Yet in the eyes of the Three Marshals, his demeanor was precisely a sign of humility.
