But among these thousand people, there were many spies he had planted elsewhere...

Now, everyone closely related to him.

Or rather, all those who rebelled with him were gathered here...

"Brother, why do you think the higher-ups ordered us to gather?"

Zhang Dan moved closer to Zhang Qihu and asked in a low voice.

"How would I know..."

Zhang Qihu's expression was also rather unpleasant.

It is said that pet dogs are very intelligent and can sense changes in their owner's emotions.

As Shi Qianshou's biggest lackey, he knew Shi Qianshou extremely well.

Seeing Shi Qianshou's tense and anxious appearance, Zhang Qihu was also filled with fear and unease.

In this tense and oppressive atmosphere, Shi Qianshou and the others finally learned the reason for summoning the guards from various western districts.

"Shi Qianshou! How dare you!"

Amidst the vast army, the Southern Cross-Island Highway stood tall in the sky, roaring angrily.

As soon as Nan Heng spoke, everyone from the Western Guard turned to look at Shi Qianshou.

This is exactly what it means to be condemned by everyone.

An immense pressure descended like the sky falling, causing Shi Qianshou to stagger backward in fear.

If it weren't for his super-level mage cultivation protecting him, he probably would have collapsed to the ground on the spot.

"May I ask, Commander of the Southern Army, what crime have I committed?"

Shi Qianshou spoke in a trembling voice, clearly indicating that he would not shed tears until he saw the coffin.

What crime did you commit?

The Southern Cross-Island Highway commander laughed in fury and waved lightly.

A gentle breeze swept by.

A man dressed as a military sorcerer was brought to Nan Heng's side.

"You should know this person, right?"

'Lin Feili!'

As the mastermind behind the destruction of the post station, how could Shi Qianshou not recognize Lin Feili, the one who escaped from the net back then?

"The Southern Army leader was none other than Shi Qianshou, who coveted the Earth's Essence and betrayed Wei Fang, leading his men to destroy the post station!"

"Thousands of comrades at the post station died tragically, their bodies left to rot in the wilderness..."

"We beg the Southern Army leader to uphold justice for us!"

With red eyes and tears streaming down his face, Lin Feili recounted the tragedy that had occurred several years ago to everyone in the Southern Cross-Island Highway and the Western Guard.

With the amplification of the Southern Cross-Island Highway, Lin Feili's words reached the ears of everyone present.

The tens of thousands of guards' gazes, which were initially critical, gradually turned into anger and hostility.

The military might originally intended to deal with demons is now being directed at the traitor whom Wei Fang hates most.

The overwhelming military might was like a mountain, bending Shi Qianshou's already crooked back even more.

If even the super-level Shi Qianshou is like this, let alone the earthen chickens and clay dogs behind him.

Zhang Qihu, Zhang Dan, and other lackeys who acted as henchmen for the tiger were already paralyzed with fear by this pressure and sat down on the ground.

While Lin Feili was recounting the events, Nan Heng also used light magic to project evidence such as the Earth Core in front of the entire army.

Now, we have both witnesses and physical evidence!

Nanyoung didn't waste any more words, and his anger, which he had been holding back for many days, exploded instantly!

"I hereby sentence you to death!"

The word "crime" had barely left his lips when a sound wave, so powerful it seemed to tear space itself apart, instantly struck him.

Sound-based magic, Super Tier 3!

The Sound of Annihilation - The Symphony of Extinction!

The terrifying sound waves struck thousands of rebels.

Whether they were beginner, intermediate, or advanced mages, they all instantly turned into streaks of blood mist.

Shi Qianshou, who was given special attention, watched as his magical artifact was torn to shreds.

Skin, flesh, bones, and other structures crumbled and collapsed before my eyes...

When the sound of annihilation subsided, the thousands of rebels also vanished without a trace, their souls scattered and their bodies left no trace.

"Salute to our fallen comrades at the post station!"

The scene was initially silent.

Then, tens of thousands of Western Guards stood in neat rows, joining the Southern Cross-Island Highway patrol in saluting the post station.

"Salute!"

The shouts, spoken in unison, resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

A black sheep is indeed hateful.

Fortunately, the vast majority of the troops remain steadfast in their beliefs, and their military spirit endures!

Chapter 17 Nan Jue and the Hidden Dragon in the Abyss

"Thank you, Commander Nan, for seeking justice for our brothers..."

Overwhelmed with grief and avenged, Lin Feili wept uncontrollably, a stark contrast to his tough exterior.

"...Yes, thank you for your hard work. Go and get some rest."

After a moment of silence, Nan Heng patted Lin Feili on the shoulder and comforted him in a deep voice.

"Yes, I'll take my leave..."

Watching Lin Feili's departing figure, Nan Heng couldn't help but sigh softly.

He was, after all, the leader of the Western Guard, and many of his innermost thoughts could not be spoken aloud.

Although the traitors, including Shi Qianshou, were tried this time, it was ultimately impossible to bring back the fallen soldiers.

Given the tragedy that occurred in his jurisdiction, he, as the military commander, also bears responsibility for lax leadership.

Now, it's just a case of locking the barn door after the horse has bolted...

Moreover, this opportunity to mend the fence after the sheep are lost was given to us by Lin Fan.

"Dad, who exactly is this Lin Fan?"

Listening to Nanyoko's inner thoughts, a girl who resembled Nanyoko and had a rather androgynous beauty asked.

Just as the girl called Nan Heng, she was Nan Heng's beloved daughter, Nan Jue.

In a familiar role, he is one of the members of the National Government Team in the original timeline of the full-time mage story.

As mentioned earlier, which member of the Nationalist Party team doesn't have a forbidden spell or a top-ranking mage as a backer?

Oh, Lu Yilin didn't have it, so he died.

As for Nan Jue, being able to join the National Team representing the defense, just like Ai Jiangtu, she is certainly no pushover either.

Since returning from the Southern Cross-Island Highway, I have been investigating evidence of Shi Qianshou and others' crimes.

Logically speaking, it would be very difficult to investigate something that has been buried for nearly ten years.

But his own father seemed to have a cheat code, finding Lin Feili, who was good at wilderness survival, on the very first day.

The next day, under Lin Feili's guidance, they found the buried Earth Core.

After collecting all the evidence on the third day, he directly summoned tens of thousands of soldiers from the Western Guard.

And on the fourth day, which is today, Shi Qianshou and others were tried.

So much was accomplished in just four days...

'Although Dad is usually quite clever, this doesn't seem like something he would do...'

Nan Jue, the slow-witted little girl, was perfectly aware of her father's extraordinary abilities.

Moreover, whenever crucial evidence is found, Nan Yoko would always mutter the name 'Lin Fan' under his breath.

Now that the matter is settled, Nan Jue could no longer contain herself and asked Nan Heng for the truth.

Nan Heng was slightly taken aback when he heard his daughter's question.

Reflecting on everything that has happened these past few days, a thought suddenly came to mind.

"Xiao Jue, do you want an extraordinary opportunity?"

"Ah I?"

……

"Ah I?"

Lin Fan then showed the same expression as Nan Jue yesterday.

"Make Nan Jue my subordinate? Commander Nan, are you kidding me?"

Although Lin Fan looked surprised.

But looking at Lin Fan's expression, which was exactly the same as his daughter's not long ago, Nan Heng found Lin Fan more and more pleasing to the eye.

However, the necessary air of authority still needs to be maintained.

"Young friend Lin Fan, is my daughter not worthy to be your subordinate?"

"Ah, this..."

Upon hearing Nan Heng's words, Lin Fan was somewhat at a loss for words.

He had anticipated that the important matter Bao Laotou had mentioned earlier was to meet with the Southern Army leader and others again.

But unexpectedly, Nan Heng wanted Nan Jue to work under him.

Looking at the handsome young woman behind Nan Heng, who was calm yet curious, Lin Fan felt somewhat helpless.

'What on earth is going on...'

"Besides, you really made me lose face in front of Lao Hua and the others back then..."

Seeing that the Southern Cross-Island Highway was connected to the original meeting room, the scandals of the Western Guard were about to be revealed.

Lin Fan also broke his silence.

"There's no need for the Southern Army Commander to say anything more; I agree."

Anyway, he actually benefited from having Nan Jue as his subordinate.

After all, this also means that the Southern Cross-Island Highway has officially expressed its full support for Lin Fan.

"Okay, if it's convenient, I hope you can give Nan Jue some guidance."

Nan Heng nodded slightly and asked softly.

Nan Heng made this decision after careful consideration, making Lin Fan take Nan Jue as his subordinate.

As a father, one should plan for the long term of one's children.

After obtaining the stone hammer in the matter of Shi Qianshou, thousands of bad apples were exposed.

Lin Fan's extraordinary talent was once again proven.

Even when it comes to internal rectification, there is not a single flaw in their capabilities.

Today, Lin Fan has also gained the support of Shao Zheng, Hua Zhanhong, Ai Guoqiang, Dean Xiao, Old Man Bao...

He also has the support of the Southern Cross-Island Highway.

The military forces consist of three divisions: the Southern, Northern, and Western Guards; the civil administration is led by Speaker Shao Zheng.
