Chapter 252: Chapter 253: King Wu Descends

Everyone turned their heads to look.

They saw a burly man in purple armor approaching. His body was as formidable as a mountain, and he exuded the peak aura of a marquis—this was none other than He Shan, one of the eight great generals of the military department!

"General He Shan!"

"Greetings, General He Shan!"

Every person on the scene bowed, even General Wang, another general, bowed, his face ingratiating.

"Damn, he actually came..." Li Hu’s eyes showed apprehension.

The eight great generals of the military department!

His status was far superior to that of ordinary generals!

Not only in strength but also because he possessed military authority!

And as one of the eight great generals of the military department, He Shan controlled twenty thousand elite troops, clearly setting him apart from ordinary generals by a long margin!

"Father!" Upon seeing his father, He Shao looked like he had seen his savior and immediately began sobbing, "Father, you finally came, you must take revenge for me!"

"Sobbing and wailing, what is the meaning of this?"

He Shan scolded him, and upon seeing He Shao’s severed leg, said in shock, "My son, your leg?"

He Shao pointed at Ye Wudao, his face contorted with hatred, "It was him, this scourge of the North King. I asked him to polish my shoes, and he dared to cripple my foot with a knife!"

Boom!

He Shan burst into a towering rage, and slapped General Wang across the face, the slap resonating thunderously, "You trash, how could you fail to protect my son?"

Being struck by He Shan in public, General Wang didn’t dare resent him and spoke in a subdued tone, "General He, it was my fault. I was about to kill Ye Wudao to vent anger for He Shao, but Li Hu intervened!"

"Hmph, Li Hu and his band of doomed dogs, they’ll soon be done for!" He Shan sneered, casting his gaze onto Ye Wudao.

"Little beast, you are the son of the North King?" He Shan looked at him mockingly.

"No, it’s your grandfather I!" Ye Wudao spoke up.

"So arrogant, just like that North King! Tell me, how do you wish to die?" He Shan, like an enraged lion, interrogated his prey.

"Haha, this kid is as good as dead!"

"He angered He Shao and has infuriated He Shan, a major holder of military authority!

"He totally deserves it!" Many elders of the military department scoffed and sneered.

"General He, calm your anger. This mess is my doing, and I am willing to trade my life for young Ye’s life!" Li Hu stepped forward, willing to trade life for life.

"You think you’re worthy?" He Shan mocked, "I think you, dogs of the North King, don’t even deserve to stay in the military department. It would be best if you all scrammed!"

"General He, if you are determined to kill young Ye, then, I’m sorry—we don’t agree!" Li Hu proclaimed, his eyes filled with a deep fighting spirit.

"To kill young Ye, you’ll have to step over our corpses first!" Jin Gang stood up; all the former subordinates of the North King united in front of Ye Wudao, showing a fearless attitude.

Seeing this, He Shan burst into anger, "Good, good, you really have all turned traitor!"

"Dirty to the core, unable to distinguish right from wrong, reversing black and white, and only knowing how to flatter at the military department. Staying there is disgusting; what does it matter if we turn traitor?" Li Hu sneered.

"Exactly, what we regret the most is, that we didn’t follow the North King to set up our own faction, but stayed in the military department, feeling guilty for a lifetime!" Jin Gang expressed his annoyance.

"Uncle Li, Uncle Jin Gang, you?" Ye Wudao was shocked. Uttering these words meant they could never return to how things were before.

"Young Ye, if we leave, we leave together; if we die, we die together!" Li Hu and the others chorused.

"Alright!" Ye Wudao nodded heavily, his eyes moved.

"Hehe, it looks like you’ve harbored thoughts of rebellion for a long time. Then you all might as well die!" He Shan roared like an infuriated lion.

"I’d like to see who dares?" Just then, a familiar voice rang out.

Who?

All those present turned their heads.

They saw an old man in a tattered Taoist robe approaching, holding a smoking pipe, with a carefree demeanor.

"Old ghost!" Ye Wudao’s pupils shrank, surprised to see the Divine Doctor appearing here.

"Divine Doctor, sir!" Li Hu, Jin Gang, and the others excitedly greeted him.

"Uncle Li, you know the Divine Doctor?" Ye Wudao asked in shock.

"Hehe, more than just know! Back in the day, every time the North King was injured in a great battle, it was the Divine Doctor who treated the North King! Following behind the North King, we benefited a bit too!" Li Hu laughed.

What?

Ye Wudao was taken aback, looking surprised and asked, "Old ghost, you knew my father?"

"Hehe, more than just knew, we couldn’t be more familiar! Otherwise, why do you think I’ve been helping you out so much for no reason?" the Divine Doctor said.

"Thank you!" Ye Wudao saluted with his fists.

"Divine Doctor, sir, what brings you to the military department?" He Shan’s gaze was serious.

The Divine Doctor was a formidable figure, one of the four great Divine Doctors in Dragon Country, holding a distinguished status and extensive connections—far more troublesome than Ye Wudao and the old subordinates of the North King combined a hundredfold, a thousandfold!

"It’s not your place to order me around! What are you, even!" the Divine Doctor exhaled a puff of thick smoke, mocking slowly.

"You, you, you!" He Shan was exasperated.

Even though he was one of the eight great generals of the military department, and a pinnacle marquis!

But the Divine Doctor was rumored to be at the level of a king!

Given ten times the courage,

He wouldn’t dare to make a move against the Divine Doctor!

"Divine Doctor, with you here, surely no one can stop me from retrieving the North King Blade now, right?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Barely..." the Divine Doctor said.

"Why?" Ye Wudao asked puzzled.

Just then, a commanding voice came; "The Martial King has arrived!"

The Divine Doctor gave a wry smile, "Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives..."
