An Yu's expression suddenly changed, his eyes narrowed, and a look of shock flashed across his eyes.
When the twenty captains heard the bad news, they also showed expressions of disbelief and exclaimed.
"How is this possible? Hasn't Qi Ling reached the second level of the Martial God Realm?"
"Is that mysterious strong man also a god of war?"
"Where did the mysterious strong man appear? How many people are there in total?"
"What does the mysterious strong man look like? Which force does he belong to?"
Everyone found it incredible and started questioning the messenger guard.
The two guards who sent the message were stunned for a moment, shook their heads at the same time, and said: "According to the reports from the defenders of Changle City, the mysterious strong man and Captain Qi Ling were fighting outside the city at that time.
The aftermath of the battle between the two sides was so terrifying that no one within a radius of 500 miles could come close.
Except for Captain Qi Ling, no one knows how many mysterious powerful people there are, whether they are male or female, and what forces they come from."
This answer made An Yu and many captains stunned for a moment, and their expressions became quite strange.
Everyone frowned and started talking among themselves.
"To this day, you don't even know who your opponent is? Isn't this ridiculous?"
"The guards of Qingyuan City were killed, and Captain Qi Ling was also killed. As a result, you don't even know whether the enemy is male or female?"
"Isn't it said that there are few powerful people in the Shenwu Continent? There are only three Martial Gods?"
"If the mysterious powerful man acts alone, he must be one of the three great gods of war."
"What should we do now? Since the mysterious strong man can kill Qi Ling, he can definitely kill other captains as well!"
"One or two captains may not be that person's opponent. We must work together to kill him!"
The twenty captains each expressed their opinions, speculating on the identity of the mysterious powerful man and discussing countermeasures.
An Yu's face became increasingly ugly. After frowning and thinking for a moment, he said in a majestic tone: "It seems that some people don't want us to successfully take Tianzhu Mountain.
But this is a shame to our family and a huge threat.
For the current plan, we can only temporarily give up attacking Tianzhu Mountain and deal with the mysterious strong man first!
If not, this person will move from city to city and may cause us even greater casualties."
Hearing his words, the nine captains all nodded in agreement.
However, seven captains shook their heads in denial.
The other four people remained neutral and remained silent.
"What kind of mysterious and powerful man? He's just a god of war. How could he scare you like this?"
"How can we terminate our attack plan just because of a mysterious strong man?"
"Even if the mysterious powerhouse is very strong, we don't need to mobilize our troops like this, right?"
"In my opinion, if we send a few captains to surround that person, we can kill him.
The remaining captains should continue to attack Tianzhu Mountain."
Several captains who had a negative attitude opened their mouths to propose suggestions to An Yu.
An Yu was a little unhappy, looked at them with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, since the captains are so confident, I will give you a chance to make meritorious deeds.
The seven of you join forces, pilot the battleship, and bring all the manpower to encircle and suppress that mysterious strong man!
As long as you can successfully complete the mission, I will definitely take credit for you and let General Fulong reward you generously."
Hearing what he said, the seven captains frowned and had different opinions.
"Vice General An Yu, what do you mean? Are you deliberately testing us?"
"Hehehe... Vice General An, is this a way to provoke the general?"
"It seems that Vice General An looks down on us!"
"In that case, let's take this mission and kill that bullshit strong man so that Deputy General An can take a good look!"
"Vice General An, please remember what you just said, put out the celebration wine and wait for our triumphant return!"
"Let's talk ugly in the front, you can send us to encircle and suppress the mysterious strong man.
But you can’t lead people to attack Tianzhu Mountain and take all the credit, you have to wait for us to come back!”
The seven captains were dissatisfied with An Yu, so they accepted the task forcefully.
Moreover, in order to prevent An Yu from cheating, they asked An Yu and the remaining captains to wait in Jie Tian City.
An Yu was irritated by the attitude of several captains, and sneered with a dark face: "Okay, I will prepare the celebration wine and wait for your return at the City Lord's Mansion.
Of course, you must fight quickly and don't affect our clan's attack plan.
I will give you five days at most!"
The seven captains held their heads high and showed confident sneers.
"Don't worry, I'm sure to eat Vice General An's celebration banquet!"
"Five days? That's enough!"
"If we complete the mission ahead of schedule, will Deputy General An give us some extra rewards?"
An Yu just pretended not to hear the last sentence and said expressionlessly: "Without further delay, you should set off as soon as possible."
The seven captains said no more, bowed to Anyu and the other captains, turned around and stepped into the sky.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
In the blink of an eye, they flew into their respective battleships.
Then, seven warships sailed out of the fleet, flew south at lightning speed, and soon disappeared into the sky.
An Yu and the thirteen captains turned around and returned to the meeting hall.
The atmosphere was a bit dull, and many captains were secretly talking among themselves.
One of the captains with a beard wanted to curry favor with An Yu, so he asked: "General An, those seven guys are clearly dissatisfied with you, why are you still helping them?"
"Help them? Why do you say that?" An Yu raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion.
The bearded captain frowned and said: "You sent them to encircle and suppress the mysterious strong man, and after they completed their mission, you still asked for credit for them... isn't this helping them?"
An Yu's lips curved into a sneer, and he said in a playful tone: "I know more about the world of the Five Elements than you do.
Do you think this task is so easy to accomplish?
They don't know the heights of the world, but they still want to have a celebratory drink?
Hahaha...don't be like a lost dog when the time comes, escaping back in despair."
The bearded captain became more and more confused and asked: "If the powerful warriors in this world are really that powerful, why do you still send them to encircle and suppress them?
Once they fail and are killed by the mysterious strong man, won’t we lose our troops and generals, which will harm our plans for future hegemony?”
An Yu sneered disapprovingly and said: "So what? Even if those captains were killed, they were sacrificed in the line of duty, and they were blamed for their inferior skills.
I have made great achievements and became the deputy general, which has long aroused the jealousy and dissatisfaction of many captains.
They have always been smooth sailing, very confident and unruly.
If they don't get some setbacks and lessons, how can they obey my orders honestly?"
The bearded captain suddenly understood, with a look of admiration on his face, and said with a smile: "That's it!
Is General An using this move to use the hands of a mysterious and powerful person to help you scare the monkeys and frighten other captains?"
