Chapter 42: Death By Losing Yang Qi
"Wang Liu dares to disregard everyone’s opinions and arbitrarily change the military strategy decided by the generals?"
If they could find the ancient path and capture Raven's Mouth, taking all seven cities in a row, it would be a significant achievement. With such a merit, Qin Sang could be promoted directly to military commander, and no one would dare to question it.
Qin Sang knew that Wang Liu disliked him and definitely didn’t want him to earn any credit.
"It’s not entirely without reason." Deputy Commander Feng sighed. "A few days ago, a soldier captured a local herb gatherer in the mountains. The medicine gatherer claimed that there was a massive earthquake deep within Guling Mountain a few days ago, shaking the entire range and causing all the animals to flee. The tremors lasted for most of the day, and this became Wang Liu’s excuse. Wang Liu declared that even if there was an ancient path in Guling Mountain, it must have been buried under the rubble, making it useless and only delaying military operations."
"Was it an earthquake?" Qin Sang frowned, realizing that he had only just entered Guling Mountain and wasn’t aware of this event.
"No, not exactly..."
Deputy Commander Feng’s tone became somewhat peculiar. "The herb gatherer swore that he saw two immortals flying overhead, claiming that it was their battle that caused the earthquake in Guling Mountain."
"Did he really see immortals?"
Qin Sang’s eyes suddenly lit up.
