âHey, Iâm talking to you! Demonic beasts are not allowed to enter the city! If you donât leave, Iâll show you no mercy!â the man at the city walls shouted again.
Buttface immediately became angry and started to curse, putting his paws on his hips, âBehave yourself! Are you blind? Iâm a holy beast! If you donât believe me, you can come down and Iâll trample you to death with one stomp!â
The young man at the city walls said sullenly, âHow dare you! Do you want to start a war with the Snow City?â
âShut the f*ck up! Donât waste my time! Who are you? Where is Situ Hai Tang?â Xu Que waved his hands as he asked.
The young manâs eyes became chilly immediately, then he snorted, âWho the hell are you? How dare you call my wifeâs name so casually?â
Xu Que and Buttface were dumbfounded again.
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, sheâs a beautiful girl with a good figure. Most importantly, sheâs a tomboy with a strong personality. Sheâs 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 guyâs 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?
âLittle brat, itâs over. Your old lover got married,â Buttface said, looking at Xu Que helplessly.
Buttfaceâs 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, âBehave yourself! How dare you discredit my wife! This is a felony! Soldiers, take the two of them down!â
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, âMy gosh! Is that General Zhuge? Look, General Zhuge is back!â
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.
âIs he the legendary God of Army General Zhuge? How could this be possible?â
âSh*t! The rumors are nonsense! General Zhuge looks like a scholar, totally different from the big devil weâve heard about!â
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.
âIt really is General Zhuge! Finally, you came back to see us!â
âGeneral Zhuge, Iâm Li, do you still remember me?â
âAnd me! General Zhuge! Iâm Lu Benwei!â
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.
âGeneral Shang, this is General Zhuge. And the dog beside him is his pet. We are in debt to them!â a Snow City soldier looked up and said to the young man at this moment.
The young manâs face was extremely dreadful and gloomy.
However, before the young man had time to speak, Buttface lost his temper.
âDamn! Li, youâre really bad at talking! I am a wolf, not a pet!â Buttface shouted.
âStop wasting words! Letâs go into the city first!â Xu Que patted Buttfaceâs 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 âThank you for your eggs, thank you for your bouquetsâŠâ
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 didnât 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, âLetâs get down to business first. Where is your General Situ? I havenât seen her for a few months, how could she have gotten married?â
The soldiers were stunned, and their smiles also froze slightly.
âWhat? Something happened during this time?â Seeing the expression of the soldiers, Xu Que couldnât help frowning.
The soldier whose family name was Li said with a rueful smile, âGeneral Zhuge, actually this issue is a bit complicated. The name of that General Shang is Shang Wu, and heâs the only son of the Sect Leader of the Scarlet Yang Sect. The Sect Leader and General Situâs 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.â
âMy God! This is so contrived!â Xu Que was instantly confused. He had thought the young man was the third person. It turned out that he was the third person!
âAlas! 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 didnât want to disobey the command of Her Royal Highness. Therefore, sheâs been working outside for a long time and seldom comes back,â Li said.
Hearing that, the fire in Xu Queâs eyes was rekindled. âThen theyâre still not married now, right?â
âOf course not! I suppose this marriage couldnât be realized because of General Situâs personality!â 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 wasnât interested in that General Shang, thereâs still a chance for me!

At this moment, Buttface came over and said seriously, âLittle brat, to be fair, you couldnât live up to Situ Hai Tang! However, that Shang Wu is even worse than you! You have to deal with this issue!â
âSh*t! How dare you say thatâs fair! Stop talking nonsense!â Xu Que said angrily, hitting the table.
âNo, you canât say that!â the soldiers nodded. What Buttface had said was extremely outrageous.
Although the soldiers also agreed General Shang couldnât 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 someoneâs wife!
The next moment, Xu Que continued to say, âButtface, youâre really too much this time! Youâre correct that Shang Wu canât live up to Situ Hai Tang, but you said I canât live up to her, which is bullsh*t! Just tell me honestly, am I good enough to live up to Situ Hai Tang?â
