Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming

Chapter 1068: Hidden Traitors (Part 2)


The father and son discovered someone acting suspiciously and kept an eye on them quietly, without alerting others, so as not to startle the snake.

During this process, not only were there people with anomalies in the army, but there were also irregularities within their small group.

That was the Ye Family Army; there were spies within the Ye Family Army.

When the Great General realized his concubine's son had issues, he did not care if he might kill the wrong person; for dangerous individuals, familial ties were of no importance.

The Young General..., tsk tsk, someone's gaze, he was aware of, but for the family's harmony, he refrained from fighting.

Being the father's son, the family's resources favored him, so he couldn't gain benefits and then play the victim.

He did not provoke others but also couldn't allow himself to be bullied.

For such harm, eliminating one to save a group, he would have no mercy.

Without him taking action, the father personally took matters into his own hands, poisoning the opponent silently, making them sick and die quickly.

The doctor couldn't detect any toxins.

When the Great General went to the army, besides bringing along the Young General and the concubine's son, there were dwellings in the outer part of the city, where the concubines lived, and the concubine's son's concubine was also in the mansion.

As for the Great General's legitimate wife, for certain reasons, she was not present there.

Some people guarded against them, making some family members stay in the Capital City, right under certain people's noses.

"Young master, young master, how did you die? Were you killed by someone?"

In the Great General's mansion, the concubine who lost her son cried sorrowfully upon hearing about his death.

In the General's Mansion, the concubine suspected the legitimate son might have caused her son's death.

How could a healthy person suddenly die?

She arranged for someone to invite the General, wanting to know how he died.

The General had more than one concubine; although their statuses were not high, they were sent by various people.

The crying concubine was desperate for revenge; she was sent by the Emperor, among others.

Those who could bear sons either had high status or strong means, while those who had daughters were also formidable.

As for those who had neither sons nor daughters, it wasn't that they couldn't get pregnant; it was due to certain reasons that their pregnancies were aborted.

This crying concubine certainly couldn't summon the General; the General might return once a month or every few days, and he didn't always stay in one concubine's room when he returned.

Lately, the General had been staying in the barracks, and every time, he would stay in another legitimate son's room after receiving news.

The information from the barracks was unknown to outsiders, and even the General's Mansion people were not aware.

Of course, those who knew were the ones passing on information from within the barracks.

These people were the Emperor's or officials' spies, the information they obtained from the barracks would be passed on.

When the Great General met certain commanders, he noticed some pity in their eyes.

The son beside him, although not a legitimate son, was a hard-trained concubine's son who died under suspicious circumstances; people felt it was a pity.

They felt sorry for the Great General.

As soldiers and those defending the Frontier City, they might die in small skirmishes, and death was commonplace.

It was just that the Great General's son attracted more attention.

The Great General did not show any sadness on his face, making him seem cold and unemotional, even with his son dead, he felt no sorrow.

Although an investigation was made into how the son died, nothing was found.

The Great General ignored the probing glances from others, and it was impossible to detect if there were spies among them.

In those units that had experienced countless battles and lived through life and death, even among them, there were traitors!

As for his own son being a traitor, he understood the situation clearly.

Wasn't it just the Emperor sending someone to monitor him, who bore him sons and daughters, teaching people to stay beside him, in fact, he took the risk having them close by.

The Young General, over time, trained a group of subordinates, preventing them from cultivating, but enhancing their capabilities in a short time, improving their movement technique and combat power, and horsemanship, though it cost him painstaking efforts.

One day, while the father and son were training, in the dark of night, someone moved discreetly and dangerously, after the patrolling personnel passed by, brought some people under the guise of patrolling to the Young General's residence.

These people carried alcohol, kerosene, though being in the army residence was too conspicuous, they didn't carry much.

They thought with just these items the house could be set on fire, intending to burn the Great General and Young General inside.

In the barracks, many soldiers lived in large tents or earthen houses!

Certain rank generals or the Young General had slightly better living quarters.

Although not luxurious, there was at least a room with a living room, and their food was naturally served.

They didn't need to cook in the dormitory; there was a Cook Army for service at their status.

Besides the Cook Army, didn't a privileged Young General have soldiers to serve?

The Young General also had another identity, that being the Great General's son, a young master!

This group came to burn the house down; the Young General had already detected the scent of the things they hid.

Within the formation, the father and son, after the Great General reached the first level of Qi Refining, his Divine Sense could reach a hundred meters.

Discovering someone intended to burn them alive, the Great General frowned slightly, but knowing his son was prepared to kill these people, he didn't intervene.

Unexpectedly, they unearthed another traitor.

The Great General felt heartache, why were these people so ruthless and without conscience?

No matter if they would be killed by his son or not, these people deserved to die once they tried to kill them with such methods.

The Young General used a spell, looping those people into a circle, then cast the Fireball Technique, letting those holding flammable materials intend to blow up their house or set them on fire.

This time, the very flammable items they carried became their doom.

The circle bound them together, and within the flames, the flammable materials on their bodies exploded.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The sound of explosions did not travel outside; it had already blown them into pieces.

However, the flammable items they brought burst into the large flames formed by the Young General's Fireball Technique, burning them alive.

The flammable items exploded, sending flames skyward in the night.

Such an incident in the army caused panic among those patrolling; last time, they sounded the alarm clock by beating the gong.

In the dark night, it made those resting soldiers run out.

Seeing the scene among the circle, in the blaze, such a great fire didn't spread to other houses or tents.

In panic, they witnessed this spectacle, although some tried to get buckets to fetch water to put out the fire.

Water was scarce in their place.

So many soldiers, many only bathed once a month.

Bathing in dried-up rivers with only a little water.

The well water was for drinking; who would waste it on bathing?

Let alone on putting out fires.

After such a big incident, the Great General and Young General, who were cultivating, came out.

The Young General waved a hand before coming out, and suddenly heavy rain fell from the sky, concentrated on one spot.

Dripping onto the fiery circle, they easily extinguished the flames.

"It's pouring rain!"

"Thank heaven, the fire is out!"

"Thank heavens, it wiped out the villains and extinguished the fire!"

The Young General's spell not only annihilated the villains but also let the credit go to heaven.

He found it bittersweet that his merit was given away.

After the Great General and Young General came out, the fire was out, and they assigned some people to patrol.

Those resting went back to rest, while those on duty continued their watch.

Of course, precautions were taken against others creating diversions, committing an act here, then doing something elsewhere.

Just as some people were eradicated, Jiang Tang's trace Divine Soul felt merit approaching.

The action of the Young General erased some villains and even the merit belonged to him.

The Young General eliminated some enemies hidden in shadows, feeling quite pleased.

He thought of humming while cultivating.
