Chapter 65: The Cold Family's Order

  Feng Tianming led Leng Xiao to a renovated hall on the third floor, and after seeing Leng Xiao send Liu Hao away to guard the entrance, Feng Tianming knelt down on one knee and said: "The commander of the Third Legion of the Heavenly Army, Feng Tianming, has seen the young master."

  "Feng big brother, please get up." Leng Xiao Yao stretched out his hands to help Feng Tian Ming up, and a look of puzzlement appeared on his face as he asked: "Feng big brother, how did you know I'm from the Leng family?"

  Feng Tianming heard his young master's question and was taken aback for a moment, with a suspicious look on his face, he asked back: "Does the young master not know?"

  Leng Xiao Yao's face revealed a silly smile, and he stretched out his hand to scratch the back of his head, saying: "I came in a hurry, Grandfather only told me that there are our own people here, but I haven't had time to ask about the rest. Please forgive me, Big Brother, for not being clear, and I'll trouble you to enlighten me."

  Upon hearing his young master's words, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face, and with a hint of humility, he said: "Young Master is too modest, I dare not accept your praise. It's just that I've been waiting here for a relatively long time, so I'm more familiar with things. If Young Master wants to know something, please ask, and as long as I know it, I will definitely respond."

  "Wait a minute... Brother Feng, why do you keep calling me Young Master? I'm not even the master of the house yet. This title seems unsuitable for me!" Leng Xiao Yao interrupted Feng Tian Ming's words, and he noticed that since Feng Tian Ming appeared, he had always been addressed as Young Master. What did this mean?

  "Impossible!" Feng Tianming heard this sentence from Leng Xuan's mouth, his face showed a look of surprise and stared at Leng Xuan, at this moment his mind began to get confused.

  "Brother Feng, why is it impossible?" Leng Xiao's face showed a curious expression.

  "Little master, if the head of the house didn't hand over the position to you, how could he possibly give the Cold Family's heirloom to you?" Feng Tianming asked with a surprised expression.

  "What's this 'Leng Family Order'?" Leng Xiao Yao heard Feng Tian Ming's words, his face even more surprised, when did Grandfather ever give him a Leng Family Order?

  "Feng Tianming raised his hand and asked, 'Young Master, don't you know that this metal card is the Cold Family Token?'"

  "Is this the Leng Family Token?" Leng Xiao Yao stared at the metal card in Feng Tian Ming's hand, his eyes wide with shock. He thought and thought, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out why it wasn't a money card, and how did it turn into a Leng Family Token?

  "Isn't that right, Young Master? Didn't you feel that this bank card is different from the others?" Feng Tianming's brain was relatively quick-witted, and from these few sentences, he more or less grasped Leng Xianyao's thoughts, so he began to explain one by one.

  "Heh heh, young master, take a step back and you'll understand soon." Feng Tianming placed the golden card on the ground, drew out the sword he was carrying with him, and raised it high against the golden card on the ground.

  A powerful aura formed around Ming Tian's body, and Liu Hao, who was guarding outside the third floor, felt this aura and quickly flashed to the middle of the third floor, only to be dismissed by Leng Xian Yao with a sentence "I'm fine".

  "The difference between a great swordsman and a swordsman is indeed too big." Leng Xiao felt the aura on Feng Tianming's body, compared it in his heart, and found that at least seven or eight high-level swordsmen could not be defeated by a primary great swordsman. If it was a life-and-death battle, perhaps with the cost of being heavily injured, he could kill seven or eight high-level swordsmen. Of course, the premise is that these seven or eight high-level swordsmen must work together, otherwise, the primary great swordsman does not need to pay any price to kill seven or eight high-level swordsmen.

  "Clang!" Just as Feng Tianming's long sword was about to chop down on the metal card, a burst of golden light shot out from the metal card, directly knocking Feng Tianming's sword away.

  "Dang dang dang" Feng Tianming seemed to have expected this reaction, so he continuously retreated three or four steps to dissipate the force, sheathing his long sword and saying to Leng Xiao: "Young Master, you see?"

  "Huh?" Leng Xiang's face showed a hint of surprise, and he crouched down to pick up the metal card that was still intact on the ground. His face lit up with interest as he examined the metal card. Although this space warrior's skills were lacking, at least his aura wasn't fake. Earlier, when Feng Tianming struck, if it had been an ordinary metal, even a thick metal tabletop would have been split in two by that one sword strike. This metal card in his hand seemed to have a self-protection function. It looked like he needed to study it carefully when he had the time.

  Young master.

  "Oh!" The sudden shout from Feng Tianming brought back Ling Xiao's wandering mind, and a slightly embarrassed smile appeared on his face. He then smiled and said: "Feng Big Brother, tell me about the situation with the Heavenly Army, and also about the specific situation of the Gaiya Mountain Range."

  "Alright, young master, please take a seat." Feng Tianming made another inviting gesture.

  "Ah," said the man sitting comfortably in the first chair, seeing Feng Tianming still standing respectfully in front of him. He stretched out his hand and made a inviting gesture: "Feng, big brother, don't stand, please sit."

  "There is a place for the young master to sit, and those below dare not." Feng Tianming responded with a humble but unyielding tone.

  Leng Xiao Yao heard Feng Tian Ming say this, and a hint of displeasure appeared on his face. "Feng big brother, since you're calling me young master, I'll have you sit down. Why are you being so polite, like a woman? Sit!"

  Feng Tianming's face changed slightly upon hearing Leng Xiao Yao's provocative words, then he bowed and said: "Thank you, young master."

  "Young master, currently our Tianjun Army has ten teams, each with 500,000 troops. The number of troops that can be deployed to the front lines is 5 million, and if we add the logistics personnel, the total number can reach around 6 million. Although our Tianjun Army ranks last among the four major armies, no one dares to provoke us." Feng Tianming said this with a proud expression on his face.

  "Oh! Why is that?" A look of interest appeared on Leng Xiao's face, after all, he had also learned some information about the four major legions of the Ga Mountain Range from Liu Hao's mouth. According to reason, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, how could the four major legions possibly get along well?

  Feng Tianming smiled with a hint of confidence on his face, "How dare those ragtag troops provoke our Tianjun Troop? Do they know that nearly half of the men in Tianjun Troop followed Master to fight battles for over a decade? Those bandits who have never been on a battlefield can't compare to us!"

  "Oh! Why haven't I heard about this before? Are they willing to abandon their identities and become bandits in the Alashan Mountains?" Cold Xiao asked, expressing his doubts. If more than half of them were old soldiers, that would be 2.5 million people! How could Tianlong Country lose 2.5 million people without anyone knowing about it?

  "Haha!" Feng Tianming's face revealed a hint of desolation as he smiled and said: "These brothers are all volunteers, we didn't gather so many people at once from the beginning. We came in batches, and to outsiders, our old master naturally declared that we had already died in battle. The Heavenly Dragon Kingdom has wars every year, and it's unknown how many people die each time, so they wouldn't care about a few thousand people disappearing each time. Let's just say, most of us are either orphans or slaves, if our old master hadn't taken us in back then, we would have long been thrown to who-knows-where. In comparison, what we're doing now is nothing."

  "Young master, is there something important that brings you here this time?" Feng Tianming suddenly changed the subject and asked Leng Xiao Yao what he was seeking on this visit. He didn't believe that the young master of the Leng family would be bored enough to come alone to this chaotic area for fun.

  "Well, there is something going on, and also I asked Grandpa to let me come out and temper myself a bit, so I chose the Gaxia Mountains."

  "Is the young master going into the mountains immediately now? Or should I send a message to let the general come?"

  Leng Xiao Yao sank into thought for a moment before saying, "Feng Da Ge, there's no need to trouble General to come over. I'll go visit him instead. However, I have something that I'd like to ask you to help me investigate."

  "Master, please give your orders, I will definitely do my best to carry them out."

  "I want to ask Big Brother Feng to send someone to help me find a group of dozens of people who escaped from Humen, and as soon as there is any news about them, please notify me immediately."

  "Humen?" Feng Tianming heard what Leng Xiao said and was momentarily stunned, a look of surprise on his face as he asked back: "Young Master, isn't the Tiger Gate being guarded by General Shi of the Ferocious Tiger Brigade? Could it be that they're deserters? That's impossible!"

  "The Měng Hǔ Tuán is no more." Lěng Xiāo Yóu's face revealed a hint of desolation as he said this.

  "Has the Māo Hǔ Tuán been destroyed?" Fèng Tiān Míng's face showed a look of shock, and in the next moment, Fèng Tiān Míng's tone was urgent: "Young Master, what exactly happened? How could the Māo Hǔ Tuán be gone?"

  Cool and calm, he talked about how he joined the army and then the Beastman Nation's surprise attack on the Mokou Unit, naturally leaving out his own achievements.

  "Bang!" The tea table beside Feng Tianming was shattered by his palm. Feng Tianming's face turned red with anger and he roared: "Damn it, what is Liu Yan eating? He actually dares to insult the Manton Tiger Team like this, and treat General Leng Yuan like that! Does he not know that without General Leng Yuan, there would be no Manton Tiger Team back then, and now there would be no Liu family empire?! Screw it, Young Master, let's go into the mountains immediately. I'll ask the general to send troops and destroy Tianlong Kingdom. For grandma's sake!"

  Leng Xiao Yao heard Feng Tian Ming's words, which were considered a great blasphemy, and was taken aback for a moment. He immediately recalled what Feng Tian Ming had said earlier - among these people, either they were orphans or slaves, so naturally they didn't have any sense of national honor. To them, in their hearts, there was only the kindness of Cold Marshal when he first took them in, and that's all they would remember, not national honor.

  Leng Xiao saw the furious expression on Feng Tianming's face and comforted him by waving his hand: "Feng big brother, don't worry, the top priority now is to find those remaining brothers from the Měng Hǔ Tuán."

  Feng Tianming was pulled back from his anger by the young master's words, and the anger on his face quickly turned into a calm expression. "What the young master said is absolutely right," he said. "I will arrange for people to search immediately. As long as the brothers of the Hu Tiger Team are in the Gai Mountain Range, I will definitely be able to find them. Young Master, please wait for a moment, and I will go instruct the men to start searching. Then, I will accompany you into the mountains."

  "En." Leng Xiao Yao nodded slightly afterwards.

  "That subordinate will send someone over right away, I'll take my leave first." After bowing to the Heavenly King, he exited from the third floor.

  Leng Xiao saw Ming Li leaving after bidding farewell, and only then did he call out towards the door: "Liu Hao."

  As soon as Leng Xiao Yao's voice fell, Liu Hao's figure appeared in front of him, saying indifferently: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

  "Go to the reception building and bring Wang and his friends here. We are going into the mountains immediately."

  "Enter the mountain?" Liu Hao's eyes lit up and he immediately responded: "Yes, young master."

  A cold and desolate sight met his eyes as he saw a vast empty hall, and in his heart, he secretly said: "Brothers of the Fierce Tiger Squad, you must hold on, I'm here."
