Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny novel Chapter 519

Chapter 519: Chapter 519 But what have I done wrong? (Second update)

This question of responsibility silenced the entire study.

All of the Demon Dragon Legion Masters turned their gaze toward Xiao Sha, with several of them even scoffing coldly, their faces filled with schadenfreude.

Xiao Sha did not raise his head but spoke in an indifferent tone, “My lord, may I ask what crime I have committed?”

His retort caused many people to exclaim in surprise.

Because the Ye Qingjiang of the past wasn’t like this.

The Ye Qingjiang of old, due to his lowest cultivation level, coupled with the fact that the Commander-in-Chief, Ye Yufeng, disliked him greatly, was always the one ostracized, no matter what he did.

But regardless of how he was ostracized and bullied, that Ye Qingjiang never dared to utter a single word of complaint.

Yet now, to everyone’s amazement, he dared to confront the Commander-in-Chief to his face.

Ye Yufeng’s expression was as still as water.

“Ye Qingjiang, setting aside your failed campaign against the native Demon Race, just for your insubordination toward me, that alone is a capital offense!”

Xiao Sha raised his head, his expression as calm as ever.

“Oh? But why do you believe I have shown you insubordination, my lord? Remember, it was you who first asked me whether I knew my crime or not! Am I not even allowed to ask?”

Xiao Sha’s sharp counter-question made Ye Yufeng’s face turn from green to white.

He really didn’t expect the normally timid Ye Qingjiang to dare to talk back to him like this.

Fury boiling over, he violently slammed his hand on the table in front of him.

Crack.

The table, made of ironheart wood, crumbled into sawdust.

This display of might made the many Demon Dragon Legion Masters change color, all bowing in unison, not daring to speak.

Only Xiao Sha stood proudly, fearlessly meeting Ye Yufeng’s gaze.

In truth, Xiao Sha had grown impatient some time ago but had been forcefully holding back from acting out.

If Ye Yufeng dared to provoke him further, Xiao Sha wouldn’t mind giving him an unforgettable lesson.

Xue An stood quietly behind, not interfering with Xiao Sha’s actions.

He had infiltrated the main base to rescue the captured members of the Demon Race as well as Wei Ruyan.

If things really escalated, Xue An planned to simply kill off these people and be done with it.

Just as the atmosphere became exceedingly tense,

the always silent Mr. Immortal Crane suddenly said, “Commander-in-Chief, my lord, please quell your anger. The young lord is about to arrive soon; it is hardly seemly to execute a commander at such a time! Besides, Commander Ye didn’t intentionally suffer defeat, so I hope the Commander-in-Chief will forgive him this once!”

Mr. Immortal Crane’s sudden plea caused Ye Yufeng to be taken aback, “Mr. Immortal Crane…”

Mr. Immortal Crane gave a barely noticeable nod to Ye Yufeng.

Ye Yufeng always had great respect for Mr. Immortal Crane; seeing this gesture, he nodded, “Fine then, since Mr. Immortal Crane intercedes on your behalf, Ye Qingjiang, I’ll spare you this time! But should there be a next time, I will extract every drop of your bloodline! Understand?”

Xiao Sha felt a slight disappointment in his heart but still bowed respectfully, “This subordinate understands!”

Ye Yufeng snorted coldly and did not bother with Xiao Sha.

Then, Ye Yufeng broadly outlined the tasks for welcoming the young lord’s arrival.

Many commanders were assigned tasks, with the sole exception of Xiao Sha, who was neglected in the corner, as if forgotten.

Xiao Sha kept his head down; to others, he probably seemed to be suffering over this.

But they had no idea.

Right now, Xiao Sha was using Divine Sense to communicate with Xue An.

“Boss, how much longer do we have to play along? It’s so boring, and it’s suffocating!”

“Don’t rush, didn’t they say that what’s-his-name, the young lord, is arriving tomorrow? Let’s capture this fellow first and then talk!”

It was no wonder he was afraid; if Ye Qingjiang were truly associated with the young master, then he, the Commander-in-Chief, would have to obediently commit suicide. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

On his way back to his room, he kept thinking about the person at the meeting who had smiled at him.

Strange.

The smile and aura of that person felt somewhat familiar.

Where had he seen him before?

Meanwhile, Xue An and Xiao Sha, together with the group of demons, returned to Ye Qingjiang’s former quarters.

Upon seeing the decrepit state of these quarters, Xiao Sha was somewhat flabbergasted.

“This Ye Qingjiang is such a damned waste! Every other commander of the Demon Dragon we passed by had splendid residences, and it comes to his, and it’s such a wreck!” Xiao Sha grumbled dissatisfied.

Once inside the quarters, the scene was even more disheartening.

Everyone knew that Ye Qingjiang was not favored by the Commander-in-Chief, and there was no future in following him.

So anybody with some ability had found a way to leave.

Those who remained were mostly the old, weak, sick, or stubborn troublemakers.

This was the reason the former Ye Qingjiang could only command a group of lowly demons with unawakened intelligence to fight against the Lady of White Bones.

But because of this, the Lady of White Bones and other local demons of the Demon Race had barely had the chance to catch their breath.

Otherwise, had any other commander been in charge, the Lady of White Bones and her kind would have likely been wiped out long ago. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Seeing Xiao Sha enter, the demon soldiers resting in twos and threes against the walls looked up briefly before continuing with whatever they were doing.

Not even one stood up to greet him.

Xiao Sha was so exasperated that he was both laughing and crying.

Back in the Council Hall and seeing the cluttered environment, it was clear no one had cleaned up.

And after Xiao Sha and the others had been seated for quite a while, an elderly demon soldier shakily walked in, holding a broken teapot with half its spout missing, and poured a cup of tea for Xiao Sha.
