Peerless Taoist

The thousands of people from the Great Nether Army who had returned were all waiting here.    

"Di Xiao has been gone for so long, why hasn't he returned yet?" Luo Jian muttered to himself, feeling increasingly uneasy.    

At this moment, the melodious sound of a war drum rang out.    

"General Gathering Drum, who struck it?" Luo Jian was surprised.    

The General Gathering Drum could only be used by commanders.    

All soldiers who heard the General Gathering Drum must gather within the specified time, otherwise it would be considered a felony.    

Luo Jian immediately led his men to the place where the sound of the General Gathering Drum could be heard. The spacious training ground was filled with the soldiers of the Great Nether Army.    

There was a tall platform to the north of the open space. At this moment, Lu Jiang was steadily sitting on a chair under the General Gathering Drum.    

"That's the commander's chair. So what if he's a patrolling inspector? Is he worthy of sitting?" Luo Jian was furious in his heart.    

Even if Di Xiao became the acting commander, he had never sat on that chair before.    

The first seat under the General Gathering Drum had always belonged to Lu Yu alone.    

When Lu Jiang saw that everyone had arrived, he said with a gloomy expression, "The acting commander of the Great Nether Army has been seen through by me. He will be beheaded today. I have come today to warn you. Don't think that I don't know that you have an affair with the Ice Territory. I will remember that."    

What!?    

Hearing this news, all the soldiers were in an uproar.    

Di Xiao had led them through bloody battles at the border, and they had almost died several times.    

How could such a person privately pass through the ice region?    

Luo Jian shouted, "You are talking nonsense! When Commander Di Xiao led us to battle everywhere, why didn't I see your figure? What right do you have to question him?"    

"That's right. Your Lu Family will be pointing fingers at us from behind. What else can you do?"    

"Hehe, you don't usually give out merit points or rewards. You are a first-class expert when framing others."    

The crowd was furious, everyone was furious at Lu Jiang's decision.    

Lu Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "A bunch of idiots, they didn't even know that they were deceived by others."    

However, his words caused an even more intense reaction.    

"You said that the commander privately communicated with the Ice Region. Take out the evidence."    

"That's right, don't you inspectors need evidence to sentence them? Show us the evidence, and we'll be convinced. "    

Lu Jiang said confidently, "The Ice Region has retreated. As the commander, he did not give the order to chase them. Instead, he brought his troops back. Isn't this betrayal?"    

The surroundings instantly fell silent.    

All the soldiers looked at Lu Jiang, and a sense of sadness welled up in their hearts.    

They had been trapped for an entire month and had been defending and fighting.    

However, no one knew about their hard work, and no one would reward them.    

Not only were there far more people on the other side than them, there were also eight Exalts present. If they chased after them, wouldn't it be a dead end?    

Lu Jiang frowned. "What, is what I said wrong?"    

"What did you say!?"    

A black shadow suddenly rushed up to the platform. It was Luo Jian.    

Because of the Heaven Grade Cultivation Methods rewarded by Lu Yu, his strength rapidly increased, and he had already reached the Engravement Realm.    

Luo Jian stepped onto the platform and slapped Lu Jiang's face.    

"Did we give you face? Who do you think you are!?"    

"So what if you are a Lu Family? Your father only participated in the battle because of contribution points. Do you think your Lu Family can cover the sky with one hand in the Northern Region?!"    

"Betrayal after betrayal. I will tie you up and send you to the border. Let's see if you dare to chase after the rebel army of the Ice Region."
