Chapter 401

Thousand Mountain City was one of the most important cities in the Chu Kingdom.

The terrain there was steep. Every time there was a war, the casualty rate was very high.

In the past, there were even Origin Realm level battles here.

"Alright, I wonder what identity I will be going with?"

Chen Yu agreed to this mission.

Currently, Origin Realm experts only appeared occasionally in the Three Kingdoms Battlefield. There was no need to worry.

Moreover, even if an Origin Realm expert appeared, Chen Yu wouldn't be afraid.

"Deputy commander!"

Bone Devil Palace Master said.

Elder Mao took a deep breath. This position was rather high, just below the commander.

When Mei Changqing joined the war, he slowly rose up from a small team leader.

After all, this was an army war, not a one-on-one fight. Without experience and rich experience, it was hard to be qualified for a high position.

At the same time, as the deputy commander, if Chen Yu didn't fulfill his duties or caused Thousand Mountain City to suffer heavy losses, he would be punished.

In addition, the deputy commander had to be restricted by the commander.

If Elder Mao remembered correctly, the commander of Thousand Mountain City was a protector of Bone Devil Palace.

In summary, Chen Yu's position not only had to bear a lot of responsibilities, but he also had to be restricted by the commander and listen to the commander's orders.

"Seems like Palace Lord Fu thinks highly of me. You let me take the deputy commander position the moment I arrived."

Chen Yu smiled.

Bone Devil Palace Master's expression stiffened. Even a fool could see that he was purposely making things difficult for Chen Yu. Yet, Chen Yu said this.

"Keke, you better perform well!"

Palace Lord Fu faked a smile.

Subsequently, Chen Yu and Elder Mao left.

"Yu, why did you agree so easily?"

Elder Mao was a little worried.

Bone Devil Palace Master obviously wanted to deal with Chen Yu, but Chen Yu didn't say anything and jumped into the pit they dug.

"It's fine. With my strength, master doesn't have to worry."

Chen Yu was very confident.

In addition, Chen Yu wanted to participate in the war to repel the enemies and protect his Sect, friends, and parents in the Chu Kingdom.

Next, the master and disciple bid farewell.

Thousand Mountain City wasn't too far from here. Chen Yu arrived in less than a day if he traveled by himself.

What entered his eyes was a stretch of precipitous mountains and rivers.

As for Thousand Mountain City, it was built on a large mountain range. Beside it was a wide river that flowed with water.

Chen Yu's body was as light as a swallow. He leaped over the mountains and forests and arrived at the rear gate of Thousand Mountain City.

"Who is it?"

Several guards immediately stepped forward.

Chen Yu took out a black token from the [Mist-spitting Pearl], on which there were silver stripes outlining the word "Tong".

"Vice-commander!"

The guards' expressions changed drastically, and they immediately half-knelt on the ground.

They had also heard that Thousand Mountain City would have a deputy commander in the future, but they had never imagined that it would be such a young deputy commander.

"Vice Commander, please!"

A guard led the way for Chen Yu.

Thousand Mountain City Conference Hall.

At this moment, there were close to ten people gathered in the main hall. All of them were in the Qi Transformation Realm, but the atmosphere was unusually heavy.

"Commander Wei, in a while, they'll come and clamor again!"

An old man let out a sigh.

"Those damned fellows, if not for their spiritual pets, they wouldn't be a match for us!"

Another bronze-skinned man was very angry and cursed.

"Everyone, calm down, there will be a way!"

Directly above, a square-faced man with a deep gaze and a calm expression was on his face.

This person was the commander here, as well as the guardian of the Bone Demon Palace.

At this moment, Chen Yu appeared at the entrance of the hall, led by a guard.

"What's going on? Why are the two of you here? "

The bronze-skinned man's expression darkened when he saw a guard and a young man appear at the entrance of the hall, and he immediately shouted.

Evidently, he was venting his anger on the two of them.

"Captain … please forgive me, this is the new deputy commander!"

The guard immediately knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes in the hall focused on Chen Yu.

They had all heard that a deputy commander would be coming from Thousand Mountain City.

Originally, they thought that the higher-ups finally took Thousand Mountain City seriously and sent powerhouses to support them.

However, it was actually such a young man who came here.

What kind of joke was this?

"Eh? That's not right, this person seems to be Chen Yu? "

A Bone Devil Palace elder suddenly recalled something.

Protector Wei, the square-faced man, had a flash of light in his deep eyes.

"Chen Yu?"

The others sized up Chen Yu even more carefully, finally confirming that it was really Chen Yu.

They had been guarding Thousand Mountain City all this time and had only heard the news of Chen Yu's return. They had never seen Chen Yu in person at all. At most, they had seen Chen Yu's wanted portrait in the past.

After learning of Chen Yu's identity, they began to take Chen Yu seriously.

There were few present who did not know of Chen Yu's deeds. Even Mei Changqing, the former Bone Demon Palace prodigy, had suffered a loss at Chen Yu's hands.

"I heard that this child participated in the Three Nations' Supreme Conference some time ago, and he even took advantage during the conference."

"That shouldn't be possible. He's a junior. It's good enough that he wasn't suppressed by the other powerhouses. How could he have taken advantage?"

"I'm not sure either, but I know that the moon spirit ore vein has already begun to be nurtured near the Yunyue Gate."

The powerhouses conversed through voice transmissions, their doubts increasing.

At that moment, Guardian Wei's deep voice sounded. "Although Chen Yu is young, since the higher-ups made him a deputy commander, it means that he has some ability."

"Come, Chen Yu, come in and take a seat. We were discussing the matter of facing the enemy."

Guardian Wei revealed a smile.

Chen Yu did not stand on ceremony. He walked in and sat beside Guardian Wei.

"Matter of facing the enemy? Tell me about it! "

Chen Yu said casually.

Many people felt disdain for Chen Yu when they saw him sitting in this position the moment he arrived. Moreover, he looked like he knew everything.

In the hall, everyone was silent. No one answered Chen Yu's question.

The bronze-skinned man snickered in his heart. "Hehe, you're acting all high and mighty the moment you arrived. Although you're a deputy commander, you're still too inexperienced!"

This group of higher-ups wanted to give Chen Yu a show of strength.

Although Chen Yu held a high position, everyone's qualifications and experience far surpassed Chen Yu's.

The bronze-skinned man could imagine that Chen Yu would be embarrassed, angry, and at a loss for what to do. He would then leave in a huff or report the matter to the higher-ups.

However, he was thinking too much.

"Are all of you mute?"

Chen Yu's deep and cold voice suddenly sounded.

In the hall, many powerhouses suddenly felt a dangerous aura, and they felt inexplicably uneasy.

The bronze-skinned man was shocked. At this moment, Chen Yu gave him such a feeling.

At this moment.

A hurried and loud voice came from outside, "Report, the enemy has arrived at the city!"

"Let's go!"

Protector Wei shouted in a low voice.

Immediately, everyone got up and left.

Chen Yu also followed the crowd and came to the city wall.

Thousand Mountain City was located at the top of a mountain range, and on another highland of this mountain range, there was a dense black shadow.

In front of the enemy, there was a giant elephant the size of a pavilion. On the back of the giant elephant was a golden round seat with a long dark green snake circling around it. On the golden round seat lay a young man.

Behind the elephant, there was a huge beast carriage. There were two copper pillars on the carriage, and many captives were tied to each of the pillars.

"Everyone from Thousand Mountain City, who will you send to play with this young master today?"

The young man on the golden round seat suddenly sat up and looked at Thousand Mountain City with a smile.

"Let's follow the rules. If no one accepts the challenge, I'll kill five captives!"

The young man showed a cruel smile.

"What's going on?"

Chen Yu's face darkened and he asked.

"That young man is the grandson of the leader of the Barbarian Tu Tribe, Man Rong. Although he looks like a spoiled brat, he is a beast taming genius and likes to fight beasts with others …"

This time, Protector Wei took the initiative to explain.

It turned out that among the enemies of Thousand Mountain City, the Barbarian Tu Tribe made up the majority.

The Barbarian Tu tribe was one of the top tribes among the nine great tribes of Snow Mountain. The founder of the tribe was a famous grandmaster beast tamer, so the tribe focused on taming beasts. There were many powerful demonic beasts and ancient beasts in the tribe.

A few days ago, a grandson of the leader of the Barbarian Tu Tribe came to this battlefield.

On that day, the two sides fought, and Thousand Mountain City suffered a crushing defeat, and many people of the Chu State were captured by the other side.

The next day, Man Rong threatened the beast tamers of Thousand Mountain City with the captives, and the result was very miserable.

The only two beast tamers in Thousand Mountain City had been defeated by Man Rong.

"If no one accepts the challenge, they will not attack, but they will kill five captives. If someone accepts the challenge, they will fight three battles at most!"

Protector Wei explained in detail.

If no one accepted the challenge, they would kill five people. If someone accepted the challenge and lost all three battles, they would only kill three people, which was a little less, but they would lose face completely.

"Deputy Commander, the main camp sent you here to deal with Barbarian Tu, right?"

The bronze-skinned man said loudly.

"Hmm?"

Man Rong, who was on the giant elephant, happened to hear this. He smiled and said, "Oh? You seem to have found a powerful person? Tell him to come out. "

The eyes of everyone on the two bronze pillars flickered as they looked at the people of Thousand Mountain City.

"Brother Chen …"

One of the young men was shocked to see Chen Yu.

Chen Yu shifted his gaze to the source of the voice, and after taking a closer look, his complexion suddenly changed.

However, Nangong Li's hair was messy and his body was covered in injuries. If he didn't look closely, Chen Yu wouldn't be able to recognize him.

After taking a closer look, Chen Yu saw another familiar face. It was Fang Haofei. Chen Yu and Fang Haofei had gone on a mission together at the Yan Clan Fortress in the past.

Chen Yu discovered that the people tied to the pillars were either the elites of the younger generation or cultivators with decent strength.

This was the reason why Thousand Mountain City was in a difficult position.

"Chen Yu, you've just arrived, but you're already the Deputy Commander. If you don't do something, you won't be able to convince the others."

Protector Wei seemed to be in a difficult position.

The rest of the upper echelons also looked at Chen Yu with anticipation.

"Deputy Commander, show us what you've got."

"The higher-ups must have sent you here to deal with Man Rong."

The crowd seemed to be working together to flatter Chen Yu.

"Hurry up, tell your Deputy Commander to come out. I don't have the time to wait for him."

Man Rong, who was sitting on the golden throne, shouted once more.

At this moment, Chen Yu walked out.
