Enraged by Shame (Seeking Readership)

After a full meal, Ding Chen began to order Wang Yan, Qin Fei, and others to transport demon corpses from the Blood River Forest.

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that the group finished transporting over five hundred demon corpses.

Not only could demon meat serve as food for the soldiers, but it could also be fed to their mounts, making them vigorous and lively.

Even old horses would have their lifespans extended and become strong and powerful.

Chen Xian, however, did not go. He sat cross-legged at the entrance of Black Wind Valley.

Recently, his cultivation breakthrough had been too rapid, almost leading to qi deviation. This was due to the negative effects brought about by the system panel.

Therefore, blindly breaking through and advancing also had significant drawbacks.

He needed to calm his mind and comprehend the realm he had advanced to.

For the next period, even if he killed demons, Chen Xian had no intention of improving his martial arts.

At his current age and strength, being able to kill a Lesser Demon King would cause a sensation throughout Demon-Slaying Pass if it spread through the Ninth Battalion.

Chen Xian did not want to stand out too early.

Being envied by those with ulterior motives would be very disadvantageous to him.

Ninth Battalion.

Head Chef Army camp.

Pei Menglong found Liu Dingchun and got straight to the point: "Transfer Chen Xian from the Cooks' Camp to my battalion!"

Liu Dingchun frowned upon hearing this. "Brother Pei, you came here personally just for this matter?"

"That's right." Pei Menglong nodded.

He had come here specifically to take Chen Xian away.

Liu Dingchun didn't know who Chen Xian was, but since Pei Menglong came in person, he must have some outstanding qualities.

Otherwise, Pei Menglong, a Major General and a Soaring Realm expert, wouldn't personally run errands for a nobody.

Liu Dingchun wasn't foolish. He smiled and said, "Brother Pei, although the Cooks' Camp is under my command, matters of troop deployment still need to be approved by General Sun. Once I understand the situation, I'll get back to you, alright?"

Pei Menglong frowned. "I'll speak to General Sun myself. You give the order now."

Liu Dingchun looked troubled. "Brother Pei, this is a bit unreasonable. It's better if I understand the situation first and then report to General Sun before giving you a reply."

Pei Menglong glared. "You, a Major General of the Head Chef Army, can't make a decision about a mere cook? Believe it or not, I'll flip your tent!"

Liu Dingchun's face immediately turned pale. "Brother Pei, please calm your anger. I'm just curious, how could a mere cook catch your eye, Brother Pei? Does he have any special qualities?"

Pei Menglong's brow furrowed, and he stared at Liu Dingchun without speaking.

From Liu Dingchun's words and expression, it was clear he didn't know Chen Xian's true strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have assigned him to the Cooks' Camp as a Chief Medic.

With Chen Xian's strength, his military rank should at least be Captain.

"Give me a reply within a day."

"Brother Pei, that's too rushed. Three days."

"Fine!"

Pei Menglong left without further ado.

"Someone!"

A soldier from the Head Chef Army entered the tent and bowed. "General, you summoned me."

"Go call Liao Zipeng here!" Liu Dingchun waved his hand.

The Head Chef Army soldier bowed and retreated.

A moment later, Liao Zipeng was led to Liu Dingchun by the Head Chef Army soldier.

"Lieutenant Liao Zipeng of the Cooks' Camp, greetings, General Liu!" Liao Zipeng respectfully saluted.

Liu Dingchun waved the Head Chef Army soldier away and focused his gaze on Liao Zipeng. "Is there someone named Chen Xian in the Cooks' Camp?"

"Chen Xian?"

Liao Zipeng's eyes flickered slightly as he replied, "Reporting to the General, there is indeed someone named Chen Xian. He is quite close with Ding Chen, Wang Yan, and Qin Fei, but he's not particularly outstanding."

Not outstanding?

Liu Dingchun frowned. If he wasn't outstanding, why would Pei Menglong personally come to ask for him?

"Find me Chen Xian's basic information. I want to take a good look."

"Yes, General. Please wait a moment!"

Liao Zipeng turned and left. Shortly after, he returned with Chen Xian's military information and handed the booklet to Liu Dingchun.

Liu Dingchun glanced at it. "Year 49 of Ningwu, joined the army in Fengyun County, Shiling Prefecture, Fengtian Province. He has an old father at home and a sister, Chen Rong. He joined the army three years ago. Before coming to Demon-Slaying Pass, he was at Body Refinement Entry-Level..."

"Indeed, he's not outstanding!"

Liu Dingchun raised his eyebrows and looked at Liao Zipeng. "What is Chen Xian's current strength?"

Liao Zipeng recalled and said, "Blood Moving Realm."

Was the Blood Moving Realm enough for Pei Menglong to personally come and ask for someone?

The front army's Demon Slayer Soldiers were all in the Blood Moving Realm.

Liu Dingchun pondered for a moment and said, "Where is Chen Xian?"

"Reporting to the General, he went with Captain Zhao Quanwu of the front army to the Blood River Forest last night to defend against the demons and has not yet returned," Liao Zipeng reported.

Liu Dingchun thought about it and confirmed it was true. He couldn't help but say, "If the Cooks' Camp returns, and Chen Xian is still alive, you personally test him."

"I... Yes, General!"

Liao Zipeng opened his mouth. He was in the Surging Origin Realm, testing someone in the Blood Moving Realm. Wasn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?

Facing Liu Dingchun's gaze, he didn't dare to say more and could only nod in agreement.

Black Wind Valley.

It was nearing noon, and no one had come to order Ding Chen and the others back to camp.

Ding Chen took the initiative to lead everyone back to the camp.

He also dragged back the corpses of the demons.

Upon reaching the entrance of the Ninth Battalion, the Demon Slayer Soldiers were all stunned.

These cook soldiers could actually survive!

They had heard that last night in the Blood River Forest, not only were there Demon Men, but even the Lesser Wolf King had appeared.

Zhao Quanwu had returned in a sorry state, and more than ten of his Demon Slayer Soldiers had died.

However, the cook soldiers led by Ding Chen were all alive and kicking.

Only a few were injured, and their injuries didn't seem serious.

They began to doubt whether these cook soldiers had even encountered the demon army.

Chen Xian and the others paid no mind to the gazes of the crowd and rode their horses into the camp, dragging the demon corpses.

They saw Chen Quanwu standing in front with the Demon Slayer Soldiers, hands on his hips, staring at them coldly.

Ding Chen, with a blank expression, dismounted and saluted Chen Quanwu.

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Quanwu's eyes. The Lesser Wolf King, unable to kill them last night, had charged towards Seven Mile Peak. He had thought Ding Chen and the others were killed by the Lesser Wolf King.

He hadn't expected all hundred of them to be unharmed, with only six or seven injured, and their injuries didn't seem severe.

"Ding Chen, you have such audacity!"

Chen Quanwu suddenly flew into a rage and whipped his leather whip towards Ding Chen.

Crack!

A person stepped forward and grabbed the incoming leather whip.

This scene caused Chen Quanwu and the others to freeze.

Ding Chen and the others also looked surprised and turned to see that the person who grabbed the whip was Chen Xian.

"Xianzi, let go quickly...!" Ding Chen's expression changed slightly.

Chen Quanwu was not weak, and more importantly, his military rank was much higher than Chen Xian's. Being so disrespectful to his superior would lead to punishment.

"You scoundrel!"

Chen Quanwu didn't expect anyone to dare grab his whip and immediately cursed at Chen Xian, trying to snatch the whip back.

As a result, he pulled hard but couldn't move it.

Chen Xian, with a blank expression, held the whip with his fist and arm unmoving.

Chen Quanwu was slightly stunned, then pulled hard again, still unable to move it. Seeing everyone staring at him in surprise, his old face instantly turned red.

"Let go!"

Chen Quanwu, enraged, pulled with all his might.

Chen Xian let go, and Chen Quanwu, unable to control himself, stumbled back three steps, crashing into the Demon Slayer Soldiers.

"Captain!"

"Everyone, step aside!"

Chen Quanwu, his face filled with fury, flung away the people supporting him and roared, swinging his whip towards Chen Xian.

With this whip, he had used his vital energy; it wasn't something anyone could just grab!

Crack!

Suddenly, just as Chen Quanwu raised his whip, his back of the neck was grabbed.

"Who the hell..."

Chen Quanwu turned to curse, and the next moment his expression froze: "Gener- General!"
