Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God

"Disrespectful in your old age and slick with your words!"

Ye Ling sneered disdainfully.

The old man's face immediately showed a hint of viciousness after being spoken to like that by Ye Ling.

He suddenly shouted, "Where is my Southern Border army?!"

No sooner had his voice faded than the sound of measured footsteps suddenly came from outside the council hall.

The Southern Border army was assembling in the city.

Although this city was the main base of the Southern Border army, there were only about ten thousand soldiers stationed within the city.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After all, the Southern Border had been unstable for years, requiring a large number of troops to be stationed at various locations to prevent uprisings!

"We are here!"

Shortly after, a stern voice came from outside the council hall.

Upon hearing this, the Southern Border King's face turned even uglier, for he knew to whom the voice belonged.

It was his other protector, Wu Shiyu.

What he had never expected was that even his most trusted protector would betray him at this time!

"Elders, what are you trying to do?!"

"Don't tell me you're planning a rebellion!"

Even if the Southern Border King was naive, by now he had clearly discerned the situation before him.

The three elders of the countryside had joined forces with the three pseudo-kings and had even secretly taken control of the Southern Border army—they were pushing him, the Southern Border King, to abdicate!

Upon hearing this, one of the elders glanced at the Southern Border King, his brows filled with disdain.

He laughed coldly and said, "Southern Border King, don't you have any self-awareness about your ability to hold onto the throne?"

"If it weren't for your incompetence, how could our vast Southern Border have fallen into its current state!"

"Pseudo-kings rise up everywhere, the long-dormant witch sects have reemerged and started stirring up trouble, and even Wo Country covets our Southern Border!"

The elder spoke with indignation, as if the current state of the Southern Border was all due to the negligence and incompetence of the Southern Border King!

The Southern Border King's body trembled violently, and his eyes quickly turned blood red.

He stared fixedly at the elder, roaring in anger, "You say I'm incompetent, and I admit it!"

"But if you claim that the Southern Border is in its current state because of me, I won't accept that!"

"Had it not been for me personally leading the troops to attack the witch sects three years ago, how would I have been poisoned with the Ice Spirit Gu? And if Li Zhiyuan hadn't tried to harm me with bewitching incense and poisonous herbs, how would I have fallen into a coma for three years!"

Seeing his furious state, the three countryside elders all showed a hint of disdain in their eyes.

One of them said coldly, "Southern Border King, you were never meant to be a capable ruler, nor are you fit to continue commanding the Southern Border as its king!"

"Today, we will join forces to petition the Imperial Capital, requesting the Emperor to issue an order to replace you, an unqualified Southern Border King!"

"If you have any pride left, I hope you won't make any futile resistance! Against the army of the Southern Border, he, the Northern Liao King, alone cannot save you!"

With these words, the confrontation had escalated to a full-blown rift!

The Southern Border King's face turned exceedingly sour; he was only too aware of the combat strength of the Southern Border army.

Yet Ye Ling had only brought one subordinate along, and even if both Ye Ling and his subordinate were at the pinnacle of the Great Grandmaster level, even if they were War Kings, what could that do?

The tens of thousands of Southern Border soldiers outside the council hall could easily execute a War King on the spot!

Ye Ling slowly rose to his feet and said to the Southern Border King, "Southern Border King, do you carry the royal order on you?"

Hearing this, the Southern Border King's expression froze in shock.

The royal order that Ye Ling mentioned was the symbol of the identity of the kings of the four major war zones in the Dragon Nation!

Each royal order represented supreme authority beyond that of the war zones.

The Southern Border King immediately nodded, then his face showed confusion, and he asked, "Ever since I became the Southern Border King, the royal order has never left my side!"

"But at such a dangerous juncture, Northern Liao King, why do you bring up the royal order?"

Ye Ling glanced at him with a smile and said solemnly, "You are the Southern Border King, and this royal order is the symbol of your identity!"

"Now take the royal order and command the tens of thousands of Southern Border soldiers outside the council hall to leave immediately!"

At these words, the Southern Border King's face changed.

The Southern Border Army was probably already controlled by the three elders of Tianyuan; even if he was the Southern Border King and held the royal order, what could he do?

How could the tens of thousands of Southern Border soldiers outside the council hall obey his command just because of a royal order?

"Northern Liao King, you may not know this, but within the Southern Border Army, the three elders of Tianyuan hold more prestige than I, the Southern Border King…"

"So, even though I am the Southern Border King and hold the royal order, I probably cannot command the tens of thousands of Southern Border soldiers outside the council hall…"

The Southern Border King said somewhat awkwardly.

It had to be said that being the king of the Southern Border to such an extent, he was indeed the first in history!

Chen Dao, standing by his side, looked at the Southern Border King with an expression full of speechlessness.

At this moment, Chen Dao seemed to understand why the people of the Southern Border were so desperate to harm the Southern Border King and exhaust all means to replace him!

Following such a war zone king, their future seemed bleak!

Compared with the Southern Border King, Ye Ling was simply a born ruler. Whether it was his own strength or the loyal Northern Liao Army, both ensured that no one could possibly shake Ye Ling's position in Northern Liao!

Hearing the Southern Border King's words, Ye Ling also revealed a hint of disappointment.

Then he sighed softly and said slowly, "You must remember that here in the Southern Border, you are the Southern Border King!"

"In this vast Southern Border, no matter their strength or status, everyone must submit to you!"

Even as Ye Ling spoke to this point, the Southern Border King's face was still ugly.

Looking at his appearance, Ye Ling silently sighed in his heart—this man was beyond saving!

If the Southern Border continued to be ruled by him, it would probably soon fall into complete chaos, and even Wo Country, which had always been coveting the Dragon Nation, would eventually trample the Southern Border!

"No matter what, you are still the Southern Border King now."

"You must immediately take the royal order and command the Southern Border forces to withdraw from here!"

"If anyone does not obey the command and does not wish to leave, then do not blame me for being merciless, and I will have all those who dare to rebel killed without mercy!"

As his voice fell, an immense killing aura surged from Ye Ling to the skies!

The terrifying aura of killing intent, accompanied by an oppressively powerful presence, instantly enveloped the entire council hall!

Everyone in the council hall showed a look of terror under the shroud of Ye Ling's aura and killing intent.

Looking at that proud and upright figure, everyone in their hearts silently thought that this, perhaps, was the demeanor a real war zone king should possess!

Ye Ling's momentum was too strong, so strong that no one present, regardless of their strength, could harbor any thought of resisting!

Looking at Ye Ling at that moment, the Southern Border King's mouth hung slightly open, his eyes filled with shock at the sight of Ye Ling, and also a hint of loss!
