Wudang: Legends Of Qi Earth 214 District Of Night Ii : An Unwelcome Welcome

The morgana came to a stop in front of the wooden gates to what was obviously an army camp, Alex and the others went down, while Louis remained on the airs.h.i.+p. There was a distance of ten meters between them and the gates, and the flags above the gates seemed to flap in the throes of a nonexistent wind.

"Halt! Who goes there? Identify yourself!" a rather strict voice sounded out from beyond the gate, Alex blinked his eyes and looked up, and it was just in time to notice a couple dozen bows and guns being pointed in their directions. Normally guns shouldn't be a staple in a soldier's a.r.s.enal of weapon, but the way these particular guns were forged, Alex doubted they were anything but simple.

"I'm Alexander Zhang Xiao Feng with the right of conquest and command, I'm here to take over…open the gates!" Alex yelled out to them.

However, it seemed his announcement had shocked the guards a bit, obviously none of them were expecting him, but that was understandable, even Alex knew that if he was in their shoes he would be caught off guard. He was kept silent until there a man leaped over the gate and landed in front of them in what Alex a.s.sumed to be a show of power.

His cultivation base was right at the peak of the earth gate, so he was probably one of the ten generals. Though honestly if Alex had to admit it, this guy was not dressed for the part. All he had on was a silk bathrobe and a bedroom slipper with purple frills on it. And he smelled weird, like desire and pa.s.sion. Alex narrowed his eyes, even though he may still be a virgin he wasn't exactly clueless about the relations between a man and a woman, but never the less Alex didn't feel like calling him out.

The general just walked forwards and s.n.a.t.c.hed the rights out of his hands, he read through the both of them briefly before he threw them right back into Alex's face. Khan growled and Yun Fao's sabre was already making ringing noises as it slowly slid out of its scabbard, Victoria moved forward to speak, but Alex held his hand out with an amused smile on his face as he looked at the general that towered over him.

"I don't understand what the Emperor is thinking sending a snot nosed brat barely grown from sucking his mother's milk here. Listen boy! I don't know who you are, or the significant amount of a.s.s your family had to kiss to get the emperor to award this to you, but this camp is one of the imperial army, you would accord yourself properly and make sure not to get in our way! You can call me General Lu Jin, a member of the main branch of the Imperial Lu Family, so please contain yourself or the report I'll deliver to the emperor would not be one you would like."

Alex thought this was stupid, was this some sort of novel where there would always be scapegoats that the main character had to make an example of. Even then how could this guy be so arrogant and so uncouth, he was supposed to be a general of the Imperial army for G.o.d sakes, but instead he was no different from a common thug and made sure to impose his superiority on Alex the moment he saw him.

Alex would handle this, but he wanted to see just how far this act of insubordination ran, plus this idiot did not seem to recognize the princess which was understandable seeing as she was dressed quite simply and had no adornment that would have signified her as the princess of the empire, she even had her hair tied up in a braid.

If he had to make an a.s.sumption, it seemed these guys have not really been up with the current happenings on earth for the past few years. But never the less it still didn't give him the right to be so lax with his duties and so disrespectful to someone who's supposed to be his superior. And if he's acting like this, Alex knew there would probably be others with the same character, and honestly after a betrayal had cost him the lives of family members, he would rather not leave any stone unturned.

"I understand what you've said General Jin, please well try to stay out of your way as much as possible, but please if you can call an a.s.sembly I have an official decree from the emperor for the army camp, so if you could get everyone gathered that would be nice." Alex said to him with a demure smile.

"If it's a decree from the emperor then it would be best if you hand it to me, after all we share the same bloodline and it would only be proper if I was the one who read the decree, wouldn't you say boy?" General Jin said as he moved closer, increasing the stature of his body in an attempt to look intimidating,

"I'm sorry I can't do that, carrying anything less than the orders of the would be treason, and unless you really have no regard for the emperor and have treasonous intent, then you would not stand in the way of me carrying out my duty to my empire. Now please I implore you not to overstep your bounds, you might be stronger but I'm here to be your superior, I'll stay out of your way, but don't a.s.sume you can push me around." Alex said to Jin as he squared up to the six foot six tall buffed out general.

"Hah! You must feel so good about yourself boy! Who the f.u.c.k do you think you're talking too! Do you…."

"In the name of the crown and my authority as the ninth princess of the empire of heaven! Get your filthy hands off my Fiancé!" Alex wanted to smack his face in annoyance, he would have been able to handle the humiliation for a little while longer till he rooted out all of the generals that seemed to not be taking their duties seriously. But she already exposed herself, and now they'll compose themselves and it would be hard to pick the snakes out from the others. But since the cat was already out of the bag, then….

"Since it seems I can't play with you any longer, it seemed you're the perfect scapegoat to be used in making an example out of everyone here, so tell me which of your limbs you're more attached to, because I'm about to relive you of it!" Alex said to him with a very sinister grin on his face.
