Chapter 522 - Am I Good Enough to Live Up to Her?
“Hey, I’m talking to you! Demonic beasts are not allowed to enter the city! If you don’t leave, I’ll show you no mercy!” the man at the city walls shouted again.
Buttface immediately became angry and started to curse, putting his paws on his hips, “Behave yourself! Are you blind? I’m a holy beast! If you don’t believe me, you can come down and I’ll trample you to death with one stomp!”
The young man at the city walls said sullenly, “How dare you! Do you want to start a war with the Snow City?”
“Shut the f*ck up! Don’t waste my time! Who are you? Where is Situ Hai Tang?” Xu Que waved his hands as he asked.
The young man’s eyes became chilly immediately, then he snorted, “Who the hell are you? How dare you call my wife’s name so casually?”
Wife?
Xu Que and Buttface were dumbfounded again.
What’s going on?
We just left for a short period. How could Situ Hai Tang be married?
Sh*t! This is totally unacceptable!
Although Situ Hai Tang is a tomboy, she’s a beautiful girl with a good figure. Most importantly, she’s a tomboy with a strong personality. She’s a girl I used to flirt with, how could she be taken away so carelessly?
Xu Que furrowed his eyebrows, and his face was darkened immediately.
Anyway, the young man was too arrogant. If these words had been spoken in a nicer way, Xu Que would have sighed with regret at most, not gotten angry.
However, this young guy’s impudent words really annoyed Xu Que. If Situ Hai Tang had married a man like him, Xu Que would definitely be unhappy. How could he have been defeated by a man like that?
“Little brat, it’s over. Your old lover got married,” Buttface said, looking at Xu Que helplessly.
Buttface’s hoarse but loud voice was heard by everyone near the city walls.
The soldiers changed their expressions. The young man was even angrier and shouted, “Behave yourself! How dare you discredit my wife! This is a felony! Soldiers, take the two of them down!”
“Yes, sir!”
Immediately, a group of soldiers rushed over from the city walls and surrounded Xu Que and Buttface!
Many cultivators passing by the area stepped back immediately and prepared to watch the fun.
The common people and cultivators in the city were also attracted by what was happening in this area.
A lot of people looked out at them, and someone recognized Xu Que immediately, shouting in surprise, “My gosh! Is that General Zhuge? Look, General Zhuge is back!”
His words astonished many people. These people gushed out of the city.
The soldiers who were surrounding Xu Que and Buttface were shouldered aside by the crowds immediately.
The young man at the city walls and his soldiers were shocked.
“Is he the legendary God of Army General Zhuge? How could this be possible?”
“Sh*t! The rumors are nonsense! General Zhuge looks like a scholar, totally different from the big devil we’ve heard about!”
“Exactly!”
Many soldiers on the city wall started to discuss this in a low voice.
Just at this moment, another group of excited soldiers came out of the city.
“General Zhuge!”
“It really is General Zhuge! Finally, you came back to see us!”
“General Zhuge, I’m Li, do you still remember me?”
“And me! General Zhuge! I’m Lu Benwei!”
These overexcited soldiers came up to Xu Que.
Looking at these familiar faces, Xu Que smiled. Apparently, these were the Snow City soldiers who had used to fight side by side with him.
“General Shang, this is General Zhuge. And the dog beside him is his pet. We are in debt to them!” a Snow City soldier looked up and said to the young man at this moment.
The young man’s face was extremely dreadful and gloomy.
However, before the young man had time to speak, Buttface lost his temper.
“Damn! Li, you’re really bad at talking! I am a wolf, not a pet!” Buttface shouted.
“Stop wasting words! Let’s go into the city first!” Xu Que patted Buttface’s head and stopped him from making trouble.
Then they went into the Snow City with the soldiers.
On the way, many common people and Snow City soldiers came to show their reverence. Little girls presented bouquets to Xu Que, and some old people gave eggs to Xu Que as gifts. The scene was so heart-warming that Xu Que almost wanted to say “Thank you for your eggs, thank you for your bouquets...”
However, the young man at the city walls became more and more jealous.
After being appointed as the Garrison General of the Snow City, he had never enjoyed such reverence from the residents of the city. When he learned this gentle and handsome young man was the legendary General Zhuge, he could do nothing and didn’t dare to challenge Xu Que anymore.
Finally, Xu Que walked into the Snow City along with several of his soldier acquaintances, then they went into a hotel and sat down.
The soldiers wanted to drink tea and exchange conventional greetings with Xu Que. However, Xu Que was quite impatient and said directly, “Let’s get down to business first. Where is your General Situ? I haven’t seen her for a few months, how could she have gotten married?”
The soldiers were stunned, and their smiles also froze slightly.
“What? Something happened during this time?” Seeing the expression of the soldiers, Xu Que couldn’t help frowning.
The soldier whose family name was Li said with a rueful smile, “General Zhuge, actually this issue is a bit complicated. The name of that General Shang is Shang Wu, and he’s the only son of the Sect Leader of the Scarlet Yang Sect. The Sect Leader and General Situ’s father used to be fellow apprentices of the same master. Before General Situ was born, she was betrothed to General Shang through a prenatal betrothal.”
“My God! This is so contrived!” Xu Que was instantly confused. He had thought the young man was the third person. It turned out that he was the third person! U.p..dated b.y . com
“Alas! You and General Situ defended the Snow City and took back the Water Nation successfully. Therefore, General Situ was awarded by Her Royal Highness the Water Empress according to her contribution. She was promoted officially as the City Governor. Someone was assigned to take over the position of Garrison General. That General Shang managed to get this position by using his connections. However, General Situ has an aversion to this betrothal, but she also didn’t want to disobey the command of Her Royal Highness. Therefore, she’s been working outside for a long time and seldom comes back,” Li said.
Hearing that, the fire in Xu Que’s eyes was rekindled. “Then they’re still not married now, right?”
“Of course not! I suppose this marriage couldn’t be realized because of General Situ’s personality!” Li said while shaking his head.
Xu Que smiled immediately. The third person is not guilty! The third person can also pursue love! Since Situ Hai Tang wasn’t interested in that General Shang, there’s still a chance for me!
At this moment, Buttface came over and said seriously, “Little brat, to be fair, you couldn’t live up to Situ Hai Tang! However, that Shang Wu is even worse than you! You have to deal with this issue!”
“Sh*t! How dare you say that’s fair! Stop talking nonsense!” Xu Que said angrily, hitting the table.
“No, you can’t say that!” the soldiers nodded. What Buttface had said was extremely outrageous.
Although the soldiers also agreed General Shang couldn’t live up to Situ Hai Tang, at least they had a betrothal. If General Zhuge intervened in this issue, it was no different from stealing someone’s wife!
The next moment, Xu Que continued to say, “Buttface, you’re really too much this time! You’re correct that Shang Wu can’t live up to Situ Hai Tang, but you said I can’t live up to her, which is bullsh*t! Just tell me honestly, am I good enough to live up to Situ Hai Tang?”
