Chen Yang did not hide anything from Tao Xu, and told him from beginning to end about the plot against him by Tao Tuo.
After hearing this, Tao Xu stood there dumbfounded for a long time. His eyes were red with anger, and he said angrily: "I thought Tao You was in danger, so I didn't show up for a long time. It turns out that this bastard was behind my back."
What a trick! What on earth is he thinking? Isn’t he going to save the young lady and the young master?”
The more Tao Xu thought about it, the angrier he became. He immediately walked towards the central tent and said through gritted teeth, "I must report this matter to the general and ask him to punish Tao Tao severely!"
When he heard the word heavy punishment, Chen Yang knew that in Tao Xu's view, executing Tao Tuo would not be an easy task.
Otherwise, why use the word "heavy punishment"?
However, Chen Yang had already decided to take revenge himself.
"Chen Yang, come with me to find the general."
Tao Xu walked a few steps and turned back to Chen Yang.
He is the chief deacon of the City on the Clouds and does not have a close relationship with the Yun Group, so he does not plan to tell Tao Zhaoran about this first, but directly goes to the general who commands the entire Zhengyuan Army.
But after all, Chen Yang now belongs to Tao Zhaoran. He said to Tao Xu: "I am a subordinate of Captain Tao Zhaoran. At this time, I should first report the situation to him."
"Okay, then I'll look for the general, and you look for Captain Zhao Ran." Tao Xu said thoughtfully, "However, Captain Zhao Ran may want to protect Tao Tuo, so be careful."
"We can only do the best we can."
"That's all."
Tao Xu walked quickly towards the big tent, while Chen Yang turned around and walked towards Tao Zhaoran's tent.
Hu Peng was worried that something might happen, so he kept following Chen Yang.
Before entering Tao Zhaoran's tent, he met Tao Tuo at the door.
Tao You looked dusty, as if he had gone through a tough battle in the valley at the edge of the stream.
When he saw Chen Yang, he was immediately stunned.
Because in his opinion, Chen Yang must have died in the battle.
But now, Chen Yang was standing in front of him alive.
Tao Yu glanced at Hu Peng, who was standing behind Chen Yang, and thought that Hu Peng must have found Chen Yang in time and then retreated, allowing Chen Yang to save his life.
However, Tao You told Hu Peng before that Chen Yang acted on his own initiative, but this lie was self-defeating.
For a moment, Tao Tuo felt guilty, but he was not too worried.
In his opinion, Chen Yang and Hu Peng could not do anything to him.
After retracting his thoughts, Tao Yu took the initiative and asked: "Chen Yang, you finally came back alive. I was worried that you would..."
"No need to be pretentious."
Chen Yang directly interrupted Tao Yuan's words and walked straight into Tao Zhaoran's tent.
Tao Tao narrowed his eyes, sneered disdainfully, and entered the camp. Before Chen Yang could speak, he said loudly: "This subordinate failed to complete the task, please ask the captain to punish him."
He called Tao Zhaoran captain, which made it clear that he was playing the emotional card. Even if Chen Yang revealed the truth later, Tao Zhaoran would protect him.
In addition to Tao Zhaoran, there were several other people in the camp.
At this moment, their eyes were all fixed on Tao Yu, Chen Yang, and Hu Peng, and they were puzzled by this combination.
"I will report on the rescue later."
Tao Zhaoran looked stern, his eyes moved away from Tao Yu, fell on Hu Peng, and asked: "Why are you here?"
Facing the captain of the fifth team, Hu Peng did not dare to show off. He raised his hands and saluted, saying: "Captain Zhao Ran, I was ordered by Captain Dong Can to assist Chen Yang."
"Assist!?" Tao Zhaoran frowned slightly, glanced at Chen Yang, and said: "He is a first-level holy master, you are here to assist him?"
Hu Peng was about to explain, but was interrupted by Tao Zhaoran, waving his hand and saying: "Put your affairs aside for now. Tao You, come forward and report the situation of this operation."
Tao You immediately stepped forward, with a look of remorse on his face, and said: "Captain Qi, I am on this trip..."
"Colonel Zhaoran, I have something I want to say first." Chen Yang said.
Seeing this, Tao Zhaoran looked at Chen Yang with a displeased look on his face and said coldly: "Don't you know that it's rude to interrupt someone else?"
Chen Yang stood up proudly and said: "This man almost killed me, how could I care whether I was polite to him or not?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone could not tell that there was something hidden, and there was a commotion in the camp.
Tao Zhaoran's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "From what you say, it seems that something special happened during this mission?"
Before Chen Yang could speak, Tao Yu said angrily: "Chen Yang, don't rant, I asked you to retreat. It was you who led the team forward, and then you were in danger."
Chen Yang glanced at Tao Yu and sneered: "It seems that you have taken care of the team members who are on this mission so that they will not expose the truth. Otherwise, how could you dare to tell such a lie."
Tao Tuo said righteously: "I can sit up straight and sit up straight, so you don't have to spit on others."
"Shut up, everyone."
This time the entire grand strategy failed, Tao Zhaoran was already very angry. Now seeing his two subordinates arguing in the camp, he became even more angry. He glared at Tao You and said, "Tell me first, what's going on?"
?”
Tao Yu hurriedly said respectfully: "Captain, we were in danger in the valley at the edge of the stream, and Tao Xu, who was in the northwest, was also in trouble.
After that, I found that the opponent had a large number of guards lurking in it, and they had a dense formation.
If we continue to go deeper, we will surely be in danger.
So I ordered a retreat, but Chen Yang insisted on going deep and took Tao Yu and several other reckless people with him.
As for what happened to them, I don’t know.”
After listening, Tao Zhaoran looked at Chen Yang and said coldly: "You tell me."
Chen Yang told what happened, but did not explain the dangers he encountered in the camp. He only said that he escaped by luck and found that Tao Xiaotong and Tao Sui were not in Xiyuan Valley.
Hearing this, Tao Zhaoran did not pay attention to the conflict between Chen Yang and Tao Yu, but said: "Master, if the young lady is not here, then she must report to the head of the family, and our plan will change."
"Don't worry, Colonel Tao Xu has already gone to find the general."
Chen Yang knew in his heart that Tao Zhaoran was deliberately changing the subject, and his heart became colder. He said, "What we have to do now is to make Colonel Tao Tuo pay the due responsibility and price for what he has done."
Seeing Chen Yang's somewhat aggressive attitude, Tao Zhaoran was even more displeased and said, "How can you two prove the authenticity of what you say?"
Tao You immediately said: "The entire team can testify for me."
Chen Yang said: "If the eight cultivators from other forces who follow me are not timid, I am afraid they will be killed by you. Will they speak for you?"
"Those eight people?" Tao Yu said with a look of surprise on his face, "They didn't return. Didn't they die in the battle?"
Chen Yang was shocked and said in horror: "Kill them!"
"Don't slander me!" Tao Yu said angrily.
Hu Peng looked ugly and said in a deep voice: "When I went to chase Chen Yang, I saw those eight people. They had retreated, but how could they die in battle? Tao Tuo, what on earth did you do?"
