My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield Chapter 135: I'm Testing You

Chapter 135: I'm Testing You

In the room, Wu Lie's wound had already been stitched up.
He lay weakly on the bed. Wu Kunhu took out a medicinal pill and gently crushed it, placing it on his wound.
"This is a Consonant Flesh Elixir bestowed by the emperor. It's the best for knife wounds. In less than a day, the wound will heal," Wu Kunhu mentioned indifferently.
Wu Lie acknowledged with a soft grunt.
Wu Kunhu sighed. Although he could be considered invincible, what good was this strength against his own son?
"You shouldn't have infiltrated the Moon Praying Sect," he coldly stated.
"If Su Wen can enter, why can't I?"
"Then why is there no blood worm in Su Wen's head?"
Er… Wu Lie really did not know about this. He did not know how to answer.
The room was very quiet. After a short while, Wu Kunhu then asked in confusion, "Why did you save Su Wen?"
He had clearly seen Wu Lie's final act of standing in front of Su Wen.
After a moment of silence, Wu Lie said honestly, "If he didn't want to take me with him, he might have already escaped. Didn't you say that it was only right for one to take the blow for their comrades?"
Wu Kunhu shook his head and sighed, but did not say anything else.
"Father! I've thought it through. You don't have to get involved in Yan Luoying and Su Wen's marriage anymore. I won't marry Yan Luoying!"
"Why?" Wu Kunhu's eyes were filled with surprise.
He knew very well how stubborn his son was.
Wu Lie laid on the bed and said softly, "Su Wen saved my life, how can I fight with him?"
"But you saved him too."
Wu Lie shook his head, before turning his head up to face Wu Kunhu, "Father, after experiencing life and death once, I suddenly feel that the so-called love isn't that important. When I knew that I was going to die, I didn't think of Yan Luoying. I just thought that if I practiced martial arts properly and broke through to the Earth Rank, perhaps it wouldn't be like this!
I've always thought of myself as a genius, but Su Wen is younger than me by a few years and is only one Grade below me. His combat strength is even above mine. I feel that I've wasted too much time!"
"Good! Good! Good!" Wu Kunhuehu was overjoyed. Wu Lie actually had such thoughts after going through this life and death tribulation. It was completely out of his expectations. It seemed like this was actually a blessing in disguise!
On the other side, the Moon Worship Sect's people had all been captured by the Martial Inspectorate!
Its main shrine had also been raided.
They had gotten three Earth Rank cultivation methods and 17 Star Rank cultivation methods, as well as over 300,000 taels of silver.
Hong Sanqian had earned himself a lot of money using his 'Multi-level Apprenticeship'.
All the surviving members of the Moon Worship Sect were also imprisoned.
A day later, Xue Wanjun issued an order. "Kill! Leave no one alive!"
He also gave his reason, "The order we received was to exterminate the Moon Worship Sect. This Hong Sanqian is also an 8th Grade Earth Rank expert. If there are any problems midway, the risk will be too high! Killing this person will be much safer. As for the others, their cultivation is low. What use is there in keeping them alive?"
Upon hearing this, Su Wen stepped forward and said, "Commander Xue, I think this matter needs to be discussed. I don't care about the others, but I think we can spare Hong Sanqian for now!"
"Why?" Xue Wanjun narrowed his eyes.
Su Wen said in a deep voice, "The Moon Worship Sect is involved in the rebellion in the Li Prefecture. No one knows what role Hong Sanqian played in this. If we deliver him back to the capital and hand him over to His Majesty, perhaps we can find out the truth!"
Xue Wanjun coldly berated, "Su Wen! Don't forget your identity! You're a member of the Martial Inspectorate, and this rebellion in the Li Prefecture isn't under the jurisdiction of the Martial Inspectorate. The order we received was to annihilate the Moon Worship Sect, and it's our duty to obey His Majesty's orders. As for the other reasons, it has nothing to do with us! Just do your duty!"
Su Wen narrowed his eyes and did not say anything else. Just like how the biceps could not outmuscle the thigh, a lower-ranked official had no way to rebut against a superior official.
Thus, he went to find Fu An instead.
"Commander Fu, I didn't expect you to come as well. Thank you for saving my life. May I know why you're here?" Su Wen asked with a smile.
Fu An shook his head and said, "It's not for official business.
"I wonder if the Vice Commander can follow me to do something? This is a token of my appreciation."
As Su Wen spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes.
Fu An looked at the bank notes and started thinking.
In any case, he had to follow Su Wen. Now that he was exposed, there was no need for him to hide anymore. There was nothing wrong with following him.
The emperor wanted Su Wen to go through a bloody battle, and he had indeed gone through it. It was best to not let anything happen to Su Wen now.
Since he would have money to obtain as well, why not?
"Okay!" He agreed.
Fu An followed Su Wen to the place where Moon Worship Sect members were imprisoned.
Su Wen entered and saw that Hong Sanqian's hands were locked by steel chains and even his lute bones had been pierced by steel hooks.
At this moment, he looked extremely miserable.
Su Wen walked up to him and smiled. "Sect Master!"
Hong Sanqian raised his head and stared at Su Wen. After a long while, he shook his head and said, "I didn't expect you to be that famous hedonistic son. With your cultivation level and battle prowess, you'll be a top-notch genius no matter where you are placed. Furthermore, I actually didn't see through your hidden cultivation level. Kid, you have some tricks up your sleeve."
Su Wen smiled. "There's no need to flatter me. I'm here to tell Sect Master that you'll definitely die."
Hong Sanqian's eyes flashed with despair.
He said with a bitter smile, "I didn't expect that the foundation that I, Hong Sanqian, had painstakingly built would be destroyed like this."
Su Wen shook his head. "You shouldn't have gotten involved in this rebellion!"
Hong Sanqian frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Su Wen deliberately said, "You are the scapegoats in this rebellion. Think about it carefully, why did His Majesty want to exterminate you? How did His Majesty know about you?"
In reality, Su Wen was just spouting nonsense on purpose. He did not know the source of the Zhou Emperor information, but he bet that Hong Sanqian did not know anything either.
People tended to let their imaginations run wild.
As expected, after Hong Sanqian thought for a moment, his expression changed!
"Are you saying that we were betrayed?"
Su Wen did not answer and instead asked in return, "What do you think?"
Hong Sanqian frowned and said, "That shouldn't be. That shouldn't be the case. If they sold me out, why would they tell me about the Martial Inspectorate's movements?"
Su Wen smiled. "But you were still found, right?"
By the side, Fu An could tell that something was amiss.
"Young Master Su, I have something on. I'll take my leave first." He did not want to get involved.
Su Wen glanced at him. "Brother Fu… you took my Su family's money. Aren't you afraid that I will report you?"
Fu An: "??? Report me? You paid me to report me?"
Su Wen said with a smile, "Brother Fu, you don't even understand this? I'm testing you! Your will isn't strong enough, so how can you protect His Majesty?"
Fu An: "…"
Good lord, how could you twist your behavior into such a noble thing!
He knew that if Emperor Zhou were to find out about this matter, it was unknown what would happen to Su Wen, but he would definitely be released from his duties.
Fu An smiled bitterly and did not mention leaving again.
Hong Sanqian looked at Su Wen and Fu An before gritting his teeth. "What do you want to know?"
"Tell me everything you know about the rebellion in Li Prefecture!" Su Wen said in a deep voice.
Actually, he had already guessed most of it, but he knew that just guessing was not enough.
If he had Hong Sanqian's confession and Fu An as a witness, even if Hong Sanqian died, he would have the confidence to bring this matter up in front of the Zhou Emperor.
