Chapter 1964: Imprisonment (Seeking Subscriptions)_1

One of the soldiers spoke respectfully, "Report, officer, these two were spies sent by other forces. They attempted to flee after being discovered and were eventually caught by the officer in charge of the Blood God Camp!"

"As for why they face execution by cannon, it is the Commander's orders!"

Blood One furrowed his brows slightly after hearing this...

"So, they're traitors, eh? Then execution by cannon doesn't seem too much!"

Immediately, Sima Jinchi and Aruheng interrupted, "Officer, don't listen to that nonsense—he's lying! We've been wronged!"

"Yes, officer, we just wanted to visit an acquaintance in the Blood God Army, but we were mistaken for traitors and arrested!"

Blood One pursed his lips, "Looking for an acquaintance? Are you sure you're not joking with me? Otherwise, the consequences will be even worse than being executed by cannon!"

The two were stunned for a moment, realizing they weren't lying. They continued, "Absolutely not, officer. The person we're looking for is Tang Wulin. I lost to him in a mecha competition, so I wanted to challenge him personally!"

"Exactly, exactly. I'm a disciple of the Sect Master of the Body Sect, and this Tang Wulin is my junior. I came to visit him this time. If you don't believe it, officer, you can check!"

Blood One nodded, "Alright, then I'll trust you this time."

Then, he turned to the rest of the soldiers and ordered, "Hold your fire for now. I'll discuss this with your army commander. If it turns out to be false, it won't be too late to execute them by cannon!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers barely suppressed a grin and replied with all seriousness, "Yes, officer!"

They had figured it out; their army commander and this Blood One were simply putting on a double act!

It was clear they wanted to intimidate the two captives!

Watching Blood One leave, Sima Jinchi gasped for air, "Whew... Although we haven't shaken off suspicion, we've managed to save our lives!"

Aruheng said with a wry smile, "Sima Younger Brother, you really got me good this time. Not only had I never been to the Blood God Army, but you also said it would be fine if we got caught!"

"Just one sentence from us and we were about to be executed by cannon!"

Feeling guilty, Sima Jinchi sincerely said, "Brother Ru Heng, if we can still make it out alive, I'll definitely make it up to you!"

Of course, given another chance, he'd never choose to come to such a godforsaken place again!

...

Meanwhile, Blood One had arrived at Zhang Huanyun's resting room and started with a smile, "Commander Zhang, isn't this a bit too harsh on the two youngsters?"

Zhang Huanyun rolled her eyes, "Blood One, don't you talk. You were the one who acted most convincingly!!"

When it came to damage control, he was no match for the person before him!

Blood One, noncommittally, "I was trying to demonstrate our Blood God Army's sense of discipline, understand?"

Zhang Huanyun could only scoff with a disinterested "heh heh"...

Blood One's expression suddenly turned serious, "Alright, have the identities of those two lads been verified?"

Zhang Huanyun stopped joking and explained, "Yeah, there's no problem. The cunning one is from the Southern Legion, named Sima Jinchi. As for the slow-witted one, he is the eldest disciple of the Sect Master of the Body Sect, Aruheng!"

"According to them, they came to the Blood God Army solely for that young fellow, Tang Wulin!"

Blood One chuckled, "Even someone from the Southern Legion has come all the way here for Tang Wulin, that kid must be quite charming!"

Zhang Huanyun crossed her arms, enviously speaking, "Yes indeed, and all thanks to the great effort you took to recruit him into the Blood God Camp."

Blood One didn't respond, changing the topic, "So, what do you plan to do with these two?"

Zhang Huanyun rolled her eyes, speaking irritably, "Obviously, they'll be locked up for a few days and then released. What else, actually execute them by cannon? I don't want the hassle, even if you don't mind it!"

Really, killing Aruheng might bring the entirety of the Body Sect down on her head!

Blood One didn't argue, "Alright, let them learn their lesson then!"

...

On the other side, Blood God Camp!

Having returned, Blood Two glanced at Tang Wulin, who was conversing with Blood Seven, and spoke up, "Tang Wulin, your senior brother barged into the Blood God Army and has been captured and locked up. Go check on him in a few days!"

Blood Seven's eyes lit up, "Senior brother? I didn't expect that you, Little Wulin, had a senior brother who came all this way to see you. That's true brotherhood!"

However, Tang Wulin, the person in question, had a face full of confusion...

He questioned, "Blood Two, could you have made a mistake? How come I don't know when I got a senior brother!"

Although he had taken many as masters, upon reflection, he didn't have any so-called 'senior brothers'!

Blood Two was also stunned for a moment, then said with surprise, "Really not your senior brother? Then I'll go and have Zhang Huanyun execute that kid right now!"

Acting on instinct, Tang Wulin interjected, "Wait a minute, Blood Two, did you hear about this 'senior brother's' identity?"

Chin in hand, Blood Two pondered, "Seems he's the Sect Master of the Body Sect's eldest disciple, something Ru Heng..."

Tang Wulin subconsciously blurted out three words, "Aruheng!"

Blood Two nodded, "Right, that's the name, I think!"

Tang Wulin pursed his lips, "If it's him, then he could possibly be considered my senior brother!"

If Mu Ye treated him as a disciple, then Mu Ye's eldest disciple, Aruheng, was indeed his senior brother!

It seemed the visitor had not come by mistake!

Unable to help himself, Blood Two smacked his lips, "Is that so? Your brotherly logic is really messy. Oh, almost forgot, there's another person who came looking for you, goes by the name Sima Jinchi, I believe!"

At that moment, Tang Wulin's mouth twitched...

He inwardly complained, "Come on! Aruheng is one thing, but what's the deal with Sima Jinchi?"

The Southern Legion and the Blood God Army were not close at all!

This guy sure had a lot of free time!

Blood Eight, who had been silently listening, suddenly spoke up, "Sima Jinchi, isn't he the guy who lost to Tang Wulin in the mecha match?"

Tang Wulin expressed his surprise, "Blood Eight, how did you know? Were you also present at that match?"

Blood Eight's expression remained unchanged, "That's right, as you're a new member of the Blood God Camp, of course I would take an interest!"

Blood Seven patted Tang Wulin's shoulder, "Don't be surprised, Blood Eight's just like that, cool on the outside but warm on the inside. Looking out for a newcomer like you is only normal!"

Blood Eight's face darkened as she reprimanded, "Blood Seven, I've told you not to call me 'old eight', call me Blood Eight!"

But Blood Seven merely waved his hand, dismissively saying, "Oh, 'old eight', Blood Eight, what's the difference? Just like with Blood Six, I could call her 'old six' too!"

Blood Six, upon hearing this, was also displeased...

She immediately raised her palm, and said menacingly, "You're 'old six', your whole family is 'old six'! Say it again and I'll hit you, I swear!"

Blood Seven covered his mouth and coughed, "Just kidding, just kidding, don't take it seriously!"

He could joke with Blood Eight, because she might be able to beat him!

But he couldn't joke with Blood Six, because she definitely could beat him!
