Chapter 2132: Chapter 2117: Luck Isn’t So Good

"Ye Zhen, do you know what you’re doing?"

The man wearing a golden helm with purple feathers stepped out of the silver light and scolded Ye Zhen before his trusted aides could follow, "Dingbian Fort is also an important defensive force in our Northern War Zone, a friendly army and one of our supply bases.

Lord of Dingbian Fort, Shan Zhengchun, also holds a military position in our Northern War Zone. You attack a friendly army and plan to seize a friendly city, what exactly are you trying to do?"

The person stepping out from the silver light was Governor Ni Feng of the Northern War Zone.

The Human Demon Battlefield appoints one Grand Governor and two Deputy Governors, overseeing five battle zones—East, West, South, North, and Central—each managed by a Governor.

The person before Ye Zhen was none other than his superior, Governor Ni Feng of the Northern War Zone.

The battlefield of human demons has a mixed array of forces, but the Governors of the major battle zones were all handpicked and appointed by Princess Ji Yuan.

Ye Zhen’s expression slightly changed. Ye Zhen initially thought that Lord Shan Zhengchun of Dingbian Fort might openly break ties with him, but unexpectedly, he used a Void Traction Talisman to summon Governor Ni Feng and Military Judge Shao Han from the Northern War Zone.

It seems they plan to intimidate him with force!

Before Ye Zhen could respond, Shao Han, the Commander Level Military Judge of the Northern War Zone, pointed at the corpses in the distance and sneered, "Marshal Ye, using private execution to kill thousands of friendly troops, this is undoubtedly a capital crime in military law!"

In almost an instant, Governor Ni Feng’s five hundred trusted aides and Shao Han’s five hundred Military Law Guards had already formed up in front of Ye Zhen, ready to accuse him.

"Friendly army?"

"Such friendly army?" Ye Zhen laughed heartily and threw a Jade Scroll directly to Governor Ni Feng of the Northern War Zone.

"This is their confession, Governor will see!" Ye Zhen said.

Ni Feng glanced at the Jade Scroll, his expression turned unpleasant as he handed it to Shan Zhengchun, who didn’t even bother to look, "Marshal Ye, your Heavenly Patrol Department’s methods are adept at extracting confessions and fabricating charges, a mere trifle."

"Governor, the heir of Dingbian Fortress Lord, Shan Wei, rebelled and killed over 400 soldiers from the North Sea Heavenly Wave Army. I request to punish the Shan Clan to uphold military discipline and boost military prestige!" Ye Zhen shouted sharply.

Ni Feng’s demeanor suddenly grew extremely gloomy, "Ye Zhen, cease your nonsense!"

"Release Shan Wei and have the army withdraw from Flying Sky Fort, awaiting my investigation!"

"Releasing Shan Wei is impossible!"

Ye Zhen sneered, as the previously crafted Soul Refining Ghost Banner suddenly flew out, the pitiful cries of Shan Wei’s Innate Divine Soul echoed immediately.

Upon seeing this, Shan Zhengchun’s mouth twitched violently, "Wei’er, my Wei’er!"

Shan Zhengchun’s Late Dao Realm aura surged like furious waves, his bloodshot eyes fixed fiercely on Ye Zhen.

This time, without Ye Zhen’s action, Liuu Feng waved the Command Banner, and twenty Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows were immediately aimed at Shan Zhengchun.

Especially these twenty Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows, equipped with specially crafted crossbow bolts made by the layers of refinement by the Priest of the Ancestral Shrine of Great Zhou, emitted a chilling aura, causing Shan Zhengchun great discomfort.

Although the twenty Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows couldn’t kill Shan Zhengchun, they could certainly injure him.

Yet, Shan Zhengchun showed no intention of retreating, his murderous intent and anger towards his grandson Shan Wei’s relentless screaming Innate Divine Soul burned evermore fiercely, like blazing flames.

Governor Ni Feng, who was unitedly suppressing Ye Zhen, hurriedly blocked Shan Zhengchun, shouting at Ye Zhen fiercely, "I’m here, what are you up to? Withdraw the Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows! Lord Shan, we can talk this over slowly!"

"My grandson has been killed!" Shan Zhengchun spat at Ni Feng’s face.

Ye Zhen showed no sign of retreat, "A Late Dao Realm wants to kill me, I must prepare." With a wave of his hand, Ye Zhen released another fifty Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows from his sleeve, swiftly mounted by soldiers from behind.

"You all!" Ni Feng stamped his foot in frustration.

He had come here originally to catch Ye Zhen off guard, hoping to use this opportunity to deal with Ye Zhen.

Unexpectedly, it turned into this situation, leaving him feeling caught between two sides like a mouse in a trap.

Neither Ye Zhen nor Shan Zhengchun paid him any heed, further increasing his frustration. Yet, as the Governor of the Northern War Zone, he couldn’t just ignore this.

If these two were to fight on the spot, especially related to Ye Zhen, it could become an earth-shattering event heard by the heavens.

Ni Feng wasn’t sure whether others would face consequences, but he knew for sure that he would.

In a moment of regret for coming here, Ni Feng had no choice but to try and mediate.

However, neither Ye Zhen nor Shan Zhengchun was willing to retreat even a step, leaving Governor Ni Feng of the Northern War Zone extremely frustrated.

"Ye Zhen, isn’t it just this little matter? What are you doing?"

"Governor Ni, gather your five hundred trusted aides and let me kill them, then leave as if nothing happened, and Ye Zhen will listen to you on this matter!" Ye Zhen’s words made the five hundred trusted aides behind Ni Feng shiver, and Ni Feng was left speechless.

"Lord Shan, you too take a step back, and we can sit down...."

"He killed my grandson, my direct bloodline, my precious few! He killed my grandson, I will never let him go!" Shan Zhengchun’s eyes were blood-red, wanting to devour Ye Zhen on the spot, showing no regard for Ni Feng.

Helpless, Governor Ni Feng looked towards Shao Han, Commander Level Military Judge of the Northern War Zone.

As Shao Han was a close confidant, he naturally understood Governor Ni Feng’s intentions and hurriedly stepped forward to assist.

"Marshal Ye, aside from other matters, you incited a private army to attack a friendly fortress and slaughtered thousands of militia and civilians. Wherever placed, these actions are capital crimes!" Shao Han barked.

"I came to find my two missing guards and discovered that Shan Wei killed them..."

"Marshal Ye, evidence, everything needs evidence! Now, all those who should be killed were killed by you, and those alive are your soldiers. Who can prove that what you say is true?"

Military Judge Shao Han interrupted Ye Zhen, full of skepticism, "And, everyone knows Marshal Ye is from the Heavenly Patrol Department, infamous for fabricating evidence!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen suddenly lost interest in retorting, as what kind of argument could be made against a judge who came with a biased standpoint.

Ye Zhen’s gaze at Military Judge Shao Han turned chillingly cold.

Yet Shao Han continued to speak unconsciously, "Thus, Marshal Ye, your evidence is unreliable, but your unauthorized killing of friendly forces is a proven fact.

I suggest Marshal Ye release Shan Wei’s Innate Divine Soul first, then sit down for us to talk..."

Suddenly, Military Judge Shao Han’s words halted, as Ye Zhen’s cold and murderous look made him feel as if he had a thorn in his back.

"Keep talking, why stop?"

Ye Zhen’s emotionless voice resonated, "I’ve seen many military judges! Who was the previous one?"

"Oh, right, Commander Level Military Judge Huyan Ku from the Eastern War Zone. He was also considerate towards Ye Zhen and advised me like Lord Shao.

Just that, Lord Huyan’s luck seemed unfortunate.

It seems he was slain by a Demon Clan Dao Realm infiltrator upon leaving, with his Divine Soul completely annihilated, untimely deceased, truly... a pity!"

These words seemed like Ye Zhen was lamenting.

However, to Military Judge Shao Han, they were threats.

Ye Zhen was indeed intimidating him blatantly!

Huyan Ku’s death had caused a significant stir within the military law system, leading them unanimously to suspect that the Demon Clan Dao Realm had something to do with Ye Zhen.

On hearing Ye Zhen’s threat, Shao Han immediately had a chilling sensation, as if targeted by a certain Demon Clan Dao Realm.

Fear crippled Military Judge Shao Han.

Instantaneously, he withdrew, refusing to engage further; he couldn’t handle this matter and dared not meddle anymore.

Even Shan Zhengchun seemed quite surprised!

This guy even fears the military judge?

Governor Ni Feng was at a loss!

Could this situation remain deadlocked like this?

Unchecked, the deadlock would be perilous.

Just as Governor Shao Feng was at a loss, suddenly, in the sky, thousands of Spirit Lights flickered.

Those thousands of Spirit Lights, resembling a meteor shower, surged towards Shao Han and Ye Zhen rapidly!
