"Commander Little Jun, after passing through this wasteland, we will reach the eastern valley where bandits frequently move. Everyone has been tired from the journey these past two days. I wonder if we can rest a bit?" Xuan Sheng looked at the map in his hands as he spoke, his eyes filled with unconcealable fatigue.

"Since you don't even care about your life, why should I care if you're tired? Just tell me, you must hurry to the East Valley before sunset today." Han Xiao indifferently looked at Xuan Sheng and said.

"But right now, all the soldiers are very tired. If they were to meet bandits in the East Valley in this state, they would have absolutely no way to fight back." Xuan Sheng frowned as he spoke.

"Xuan Sheng, don't forget that you are only my vice general. You have no right to question my words. If I tell you to hurry, then you must hurry on ahead. If you want me to hear you refuse, then you will be punished by military law." Han Xiao coldly said, he did not give Xuan Sheng any room to discuss.

Hearing Han Xiao say this, a trace of displeasure flashed across Xuan Sheng's eyes, but he immediately suppressed it and said: "This subordinate obeys." With that, he turned around and walked towards the soldier, no longer being as respectful as before.

Because Han Xiao had requested for the soldiers to speed up their pace, many people had a grudge against Han Xiao, especially Murong Qiao and the others who were already hostile towards Han Xiao, because Han Xiao's order was even more so. If it wasn't for Xuan Sheng's warning from the middle, they would have rushed over a long time ago, but even with the increasing number of complaints in the group, the attitude of the soldiers towards Han Xiao became worse and worse.

When the afterglow of the setting sun shone down, Han Xiao's group finally reached the eastern valley. Looking at the mountain that seemed to have suddenly appeared in front of them, Han Xiao lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "Rest here for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to continue our journey."

"We're only resting for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. What do you take us for?" Hearing Han Xiao's words, Murong Chao stood up unhappily and said.

"It's just that the time it takes to make a cup of tea is too short and the sky is about to turn dark. It's too dangerous to travel again." Zhao Han shouted.

"That's right, that's right. We haven't rested for the past two days. We don't have the strength to continue on our journey." Bai Feng said.

"Let's not hurry anymore. We need to rest." The few people beside Murong Ye shouted, because these few people were against him. The other soldiers also stopped talking and looked at Han Xiao and Murong Qiao as if they were watching a good show.

"You've only traveled for two days and you're already so tired. You dare to say that you're part of the Xiao family's army? If you say so, I would lose face for you. Since you think it's too short, then get up and don't rest." Han Xiao coldly said.

"You brat, what do you know? How dare you speak to us like that? Let me tell you, Grandpa didn't have you when I was fighting on the battlefield." Hearing Han Xiao's words, Murong Qiao stood up and pointed at Han Xiao as he shouted.

"Is that so? "I think you're just one of those deserters who only know how to hide in the sand and watch others escape." Han Xiao said indifferently, looking at Murong Qiao with eyes full of disdain.

You, what do you know? Since you were born in the royal family, you have been doted on by the emperor, so you naturally wouldn't know how we soldiers lead our lives. People like you aren't worthy to be the commander of our small army. As he said this, he turned around and was about to leave, but just as he took two steps, he saw a blue figure flash in front of him and a palm was aimed at him.

A sharp wind blew through his palm, causing his face to ache.

His two legs separated into a horse stance. Murong Zhao's palm struck Han Xiao's palm, and with a "Kacha" sound, Murong Ye's palm directly hit Han Xiao's palm, and shattered into pieces. The broken bones directly passed through his palm, revealing fresh red blood flowing out of his palm, instantly calming the surroundings down.

"Ah, ah, Han Xiao, you little thing!" Feeling the sharp pain from his broken neck, Murong Qiu screamed in pain, but before he could finish his sentence, he was seized by Han Xiao's throat. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no sound came out.

Gradually, Murong Qiao felt his breathing become more and more difficult, this was the first time that the threat of death was so close to him, just when he thought he would die like this, the hand on his neck loosened, and he was thrown away.

"Bam." A sound of Murong Fu flying five meters away crashed into the rock wall behind him. Immediately, Murong Qiao heard a crisp sound from his spine. He wanted to stand up, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get up and lay down.

"Murong Qiao." Zhao Han hurriedly ran over to help Murong Qiao stand up, and when he turned around, he saw that Murong Qiao's back had already been dyed red with blood.

"Han Xiao, you're too much. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have a high cultivation. We already have three hundred people." Bai Feng coldly looked at Han Xiao as he spoke.

"Little Jun, even if Murong Qiao's words were a bit ugly, but you can't do such a heavy blow, right?" He could already feel that the other people's discontent towards Han Xiao was about to erupt.

"Murong Fu was not willing to obey my orders from the beginning, rather than dragging his troops in the battle with the bandits, I might as well take care of him now." Han Xiao said indifferently.

"When I see you, the one who will be dragging the team down is you, not only is Murong Zhu not convinced by you, we are all unconvinced by you. If you have the ability, then go kill us all, go kill the bandits yourself, otherwise, kneel on the ground and kowtow and apologize to us." Zhao Han stood up and said.

"Exactly, what qualifications does a flower that's grown in a greenhouse have to lead us?"

"And he only knows how to make us travel without any wind."

As Zhao Han's voice fell, his dissatisfied voice sounded out in all directions, causing quite a few soldiers to complain with dissatisfaction. Even Xuan Sheng's gaze towards Han Xiao was filled with dissatisfaction.

Hearing their complaints, Han Xiao's mouth raised into a faint smile and said, "Do you think it will be difficult to kill all of you?"

"What?" When Xuan Sheng heard Han Xiao's words, a trace of unease flashed across his face. Just as he was about to step forward, he felt as if he couldn't lift his feet and looked down to see that the ground had suddenly become covered with a layer of ice.

The others also felt this and bent down to hit the ice with their weapons, but the place that had just been smashed was immediately frozen.

"This is the ice attribute's source energy. When is it?" Furthermore, freezing three hundred people at once would take a lot of energy. " Xuan Sheng looked at Han Xiao in disbelief.

"When I sent Murong Qiao flying, all you did was pay attention to Murong Qiao and didn't notice your own feet. As for the source energy, if I relied solely on my own source energy, I would have truly consumed myself, but did you not notice that my left hand was tightly clenched from the start." As Han Xiao said this, he slowly extended out his left hand. In the palm of his left hand, a sparkling and translucent Spirit Stone turned into powder in front of everyone's eyes.

Seeing Han Xiao's indifferent expression, a trace of fear appeared in Xuan Sheng's heart for some reason. He had always thought that he and Han Xiao were both in the middle stage of Awakening. Although on the surface, they were respectful on the surface, but in his heart, he had always been unconvinced of Han Xiao's strength.

"The reason you guys don't understand the hardships of you soldiers, and the heartlessness of the battlefield, is because I thought that my life before I turned seventeen was not as good as yours. If you don't believe me, you can ask anyone in the palace whether they had Seventh Prince Han Xiao from two years ago, and ask them if I had lived a life of luxury." Han Xiao said indifferently.

"Was there Seventh Prince Han Xiao two years ago? What does that mean?" Xuan Sheng asked.

Although the Xiao family's army had been stationed outside the imperial city, they did not know much about the matters within the imperial palace.

"The day I was born was the day my mother died, and at that time, I was sentenced to being a cripple so my royal father wanted to throw me away and feed me to the spirit beasts. It was Prime Minister Wei who stopped my father who saved me, but he was unable to let royal father recognize my identity. After being acknowledged by royal father, I directly went to the Obscure Academy. I have enjoyed a so-called luxurious and luxurious life for less than a month. " Han Xiao said indifferently, looking at the crowd, he continued, "I'm not saying these things to tell you how hard my life is, but to tell you not to think that just because you soldiers are fighting on the battlefield, the people in the palace are all doing well, without absolute strength, no matter where you are, you are destined to live in the lowest rung of the population. Just complaining is foolish behavior, and this is the reason why I attacked Murong Qiao."

"Foolish man, what do you understand after saying so much? We will die for our enemies, what do you understand?" Zhao Han bellowed.

"I've just said that complaining is the behavior of idiots. Since you guys aren't convinced with me, then as long as you guys surpass me and take my life, I will take away all your complaints. If you do that, not only will your lives be harmed, but the lives of others as well." Han Xiao said indifferently.

"Do you mean that we will believe you? "If it wasn't for your difficulty." Bai Feng said.

"If I hadn't done that, would you have burst out against me? The reason I did that was to force you to the dead end so that you could let your dissatisfaction burst out, and also to see if you really think that you're just going to die and not take yourself seriously. " Han Xiao said.

"You did it on purpose from the beginning?" Xuan Sheng suddenly realized.

"Right, rather than losing because of internal disunity during the battle with the bandits, it would be better to finish everything before then and face the enemy in our best state." Han Xiao said with a faint smile. The afterglow of the setting sun shone onto Han Xiao's body, causing him to appear mysterious and peaceful, making others unconsciously want to get closer to him.
