1716 Kill Li Qianyuan Sooner or Later

Soon, a letter of appointment from the Imperial Court was sent to the Flying Celestials. The contents of the letter were not a secret, and it quickly spread throughout the Flying Celestials.

Chu Yunfan had been appointed as Baotai City’s lieutenant colonel.

“Baotai City? Isn’t that the city on the western border?” someone wondered aloud.

“It is. I heard that several captains have already died, and they were all veteran experts at the peak Abstract Interpretation Stage, and they all died for unknown reasons.”

“That’s right. The situation in Baotai City is too complicated. It faces the demon tribe in the west, the Hu tribe in the north, and the barbarian tribe in the south. Even I’ve heard of the border between the three tribes.”

“It seems that some people in the court aren’t too fond of Chu Yunfan’s arrogance.”

“It’s not surprising if he dies after a while.”

In a courtyard, Chu Yunfan was holding a letter of appointment from the Imperial Court. He was to be the lieutenant colonel of Baotai City. He thought about it for a moment. According to the military system of Grand Xia, garrison lieutenants colonel belonged to the local garrison of the second-line troops. A lieutenant colonel was usually in charge of a force of about 500 people. It was a normal appointment. The only thing unusual was the place he had been sent to guarding.

Baotai City, at the western border!

“Senior Chu, they’re clearly out to get us. Why would a newcomer be stationed at the border? They’re usually stationed at a county in the mainland,” You Chuyun said worriedly, “This must be Wang Yifan’s doing.”

“No, Wang Yifan isn’t capable of such a thing.” Chu Yunfan shook his head.

During this period, Chu Yunfan gained an understanding of the various systems of Grand Xia. In Grand Xia, the Ministry of War was in charge of military affairs. Above the Ministry of War, there was a direct superior, the Grand Marshal’s Office.

The grand marshal was one of the three dukes and was one of the top martial artists in Grand Xia. He was also one of the top experts in all of Grand Xia. His cultivation was unfathomable and he was ranked among the top in the world. However, the Grand Marshall’s Office usually made all sorts of strategic plans and would not interfere with personnel appointments. Personnel appointments were assessed by the Ministry of War. This ministry was one of the six ministries of the country, and it had a high position and power. It was a first-class official of the Imperial Court, and they could even compare to the sect leader of the Flying Celestials.

What ability did Wang Yifan have to interfere with an appointment from the Ministry of War? That was impossible. Although he was a true disciple of the Flying Celestials and had a high status, he was nothing in front of a behemoth like the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War would never give him the time of day.

Chu Yunfan thought of another person, Li Qianyuan. If he had offended someone who was powerful enough to influence the Ministry of War to a certain extent, it would be Li Qianyuan, Marquis Huntian.

All sorts of rumors quickly spread throughout the Flying Celestials. In particular, the news that Chu Yunfan had offended a big shot in the court spread throughout the Flying Celestials. Soon, more accurate news came. The person who targeted Chu Yunfan and changed the location of Chu Yunfan’s garrison was none other than Li Qianyuan, who was now at the height of his power.

After hearing this news, many people sucked in a breath of cold air. They didn’t understand how Chu Yunfan could provoke Li Qianyuan. Although Chu Yunfan had offended Wang Yifan, compared to Li Qianyuan, Wang Yifan was nothing. He was not even on the same level.

Offending one Li Qianyuan was more serious than offending ten or a hundred Wang Yifans. He was the first marquis of the younger generation, and his cultivation was unfathomable. In the eyes of many people, the gap between Chu Yunfan and Li Qianyuan should be like the gap between heaven and earth, the gap between a divine dragon in the sky and an ant on the ground.

Why would the divine dragon in the sky care about the clamor of the ants on the ground? But nevertheless, Li Qianyuan personally came forward to suppress Chu Yunfan. Li Qianyuan didn’t even intend to hide this from Chu Yunfan. He even intended to let others know. Everyone knew that Li Qianyuan was warning some people that Chu Yunfan was his enemy. Whoever dared to help Chu Yunfan would also become his enemy.

This blatant warning made many people’s backs turn cold. They didn’t understand how much Chu Yunfan had offended Li Qianyuan. A big shot like Li Qianyuan actually wanted to crush him.

“It really is Li Qianyuan.”

In the courtyard, Chu Yunfan sat on a stone bench and read the rumors that You Chuyun had collected. It was as he had guessed. It was Li Qianyuan.

Li Qianyuan did not bother to hide his meddling. He wanted to warn those who intended to help Chu Yunfan that they would be his enemy.

“It’s Marquis Huntian…” You Chuyun’s face turned pale.

He never thought that his boss would offend such a terrifying person. Compared to Li Qianyuan, Wang Yifan was nothing. No wonder Chu Yunfan didn’t even bat an eyelid in front of Wang Yifan. It was clear that Wang Yifan was nothing if he even dared to offend Li Qianyuan.

“Why? Are you afraid?” Chu Yunfan said as he glanced at You Chuyun.

“Senior Chu, even a three-year-old child has heard of Marquis Huntian. However, I believe that you have a way out of this,” You Chuyun answered.

Chu Yunfan nodded. It was good that You Chuyun did not lie to him.

“Li Qianyuan is nothing. He has targeted me several times. Sooner or later, I will kill him.” Chu Yunfan sneered. “He got lucky last time and didn’t get killed. Next time, it’ll be his death.”

You Chuyun was stunned as if he had heard some shocking secret. It turned out that Chu Yunfan had not only offended Li Qianyuan, he had even seriously injured Li Qianyuan. And according to Chu Yunfan’s tone, it seemed that he had the ability to kill Li Qianyuan at that time.

You Chuyun finally understood why a big shot like Li Qianyuan had personally come out to target Chu Yunfan. Once this secret was spread, it would probably immediately cause a huge uproar. He didn’t dare to guess the truth of this matter. He didn’t know how Chu Yunfan did it, but this explanation was the only way to explain the problem that many people couldn’t understand.

Chu Yunfan restrained his killing intent. Li Qianyuan had targeted him several times and had long been regarded as his mortal enemy. Sooner or later, the two sides would have a battle.
