"I never imagined a dignified fate cultivator could curse someone out so viciously. General He was such a fierce man, yet he didn't dare let out so much as a fart."
"As if he would dare. The commander-in-chief was Chief Minister Zhao's true disciple. Back then, He Bao merely trailed behind Chief Minister Zhao, waving flags and cheering him on. Give him ten times the courage, and he still wouldn't dare stroke the tiger's whiskers."
"What was going on with General Feng?"
"He was the deputy commander. He was supposed to settle things, but instead he let the blaze spread. If you were the commander-in-chief, would you be happy?"

He joined forces with General Gao Tiankuo, blasted the devil god's avatar to death, and burned ten thousand devils. You didn't see it-cloud after cloud of ashes flew through the air like a sandstorm. What a spectacle..."
