Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Qin Tianxuan’s Report

At that moment, Patriarch Chen’s legs were trembling, and he had wet himself.

The Second Aunt had long since hidden in the back.

Since the crowd had already been dispersed, it didn’t cause much of a commotion.

Prince came over. "Sir, how should we handle Chen Fengzhi?"

Qin Tianxuan’s anger had yet to subside. "Bring her to the truck. I need to inquire about the situation at the front. Everything else can wait."

With a flick of his sleeve, he boarded the truck. It had now become a temporary command post.

Chen Fengzhi groggily came to and scrambled to her feet. Before Prince could say a word, she hurried over on her own accord.

The Second Aunt came out of the house, trembling as she grabbed Patriarch Chen. "What are we going to do about our daughter? Weiwei’s husband is a high-ranking official, even more powerful than Young Master Sun! Now that... that Young Master Sun has been dealt with, will our daughter be next?"

Trembling, Patriarch Chen suddenly rushed to the main table and dropped to his knees before Han Qian Jun with a THUD. "Brother Han, I’ve wronged you in the past. I looked down on you. I was wrong. I’m a despicable person. I only beg you, Brother Han, for the sake of your relationship with her aunt, to please put in a good word for my daughter."

Patriarch Chen was utterly terrified.

Han Qian Jun quickly helped him up and sighed. "To be honest, I only just learned of Tianxuan’s identity myself. I used to think he was just a wealthy man. I never imagined..."

At this, Han Qian Jun grew emotional as well.

What man in all of Da Xia didn’t idolize the Night Emperor?

That vicious battle a year ago had already made the Night Emperor a Guardian God in their eyes.

He truly never imagined that the Night Emperor himself would become his son-in-law.

Now, Han Qian Jun was trembling too.

Jiang Wan Jun steadied the wobbling Second Aunt. "Tianxuan is acting according to the rules of the Battle Department. The nation comes first; personal feelings must be set aside. Lao Han and I will try to put in a word later, but we have no control over the final decision!"

Han Qian Jun’s voice trembled. "I’m feeling a little faint. I need a drink."

The Chen Family didn’t dare to slight him now. The sons, who had just returned from the hospital after receiving IV drips, had learned the truth. They were so terrified they pretended to be invisible, sending their wives out to hastily apologize and make amends.

In an instant, the entire Chen Family was hovering around Han Qian Jun and his wife. Some poured them drinks, others offered them cigarettes.

This only made Han Qian Jun feel even fainter.

Meanwhile, over by the large truck, Chen Fengzhi stood at the base, holding a rigid posture of attention.

She answered every one of Qin Tianxuan’s questions.

Chen Fengzhi was, in fact, very well-informed about the situation in the war zone up ahead.

After getting answers to several key questions, Qin Tianxuan had Prince open a digital map and leaned over to study it intently.

"The Celestial Demons are about to launch an all-out offensive on the western front! They’ll use small units to harass the temporary defenses on the eastern front as a feint!"

Qin Tianxuan’s words startled Prince. "But isn’t the eastern front the one with weaker defenses? The Celestial Demons have been throwing everything they have at it. Why do you say the western front is in danger of falling?"

The corner of Qin Tianxuan’s eye twitched. "Because the Celestial Demons’ strategic objective has shifted. It’s no longer about breaking through our lines—it’s about annihilating the entire Northern Domain Battle Department!"

Ah!

Both Prince and Chen Fengzhi shuddered.

Qin Tianxuan leaped down from the truck, his hands clasped behind his back. He paced back and forth, fuming.

"That so-called Celestial King, with his utter incompetence, has given the Celestial Demons an opportunity to wipe out my Battle Department!"

"The Celestial Demons weren’t this ambitious at first. They just wanted to break our lines, get their revenge, and then push through to pillage before retreating!"

"But now, after a few skirmishes, the Celestial Demons have figured it out. They know their opponent, this Qin Celestial King, is a worthless piece of trash who can’t take a punch. So now their ambitions have grown. They want to completely wipe out the elite forces of the Northern Domain Battle Department!"

At this, Qin Tianxuan slammed his palm against the truck. "Write down what I just said as an urgent report and send it up through the Six Halls and the Ninth Army. I can only hope that Qin Celestial King isn’t so incompetent that he can’t make adjustments after reading my report. At the very least, he needs to save the men of my Battle Department!"

Prince wiped the sweat from his brow, a heavy weight settling over him.

He quickly uploaded the Night Emperor’s report through a secure channel.

When he turned back, his brow was deeply furrowed.

Qin Tianxuan began issuing a rapid-fire series of commands. "You are to rendezvous with Wutian, lead the Six Halls and the Ninth Army, and head directly to the Northern Domain’s second line of defense to prepare. I can’t return, so I’m counting on you. Wutian will temporarily assume my command. I don’t need you guarding me here in Su City!"

Prince looked uneasy, as if he wanted to say something.

Qin Tianxuan glared at him. "This is an order!"

Those four words were enough.

Prince got in the vehicle and left with his men. The subordinates who had been stationed in Su City to protect Qin Tianxuan also departed immediately, heading straight to rendezvous with Battle Pavilion Wutian and continuing on to the war zone.

Qin Tianxuan watched Prince depart, feeling a little more at ease.

He turned his head and saw Chen Fengzhi still standing there rigidly.

He raised a hand slightly. "Come here."

Mortified, Chen Fengzhi approached with her head bowed.

Qin Tianxuan glanced at her. "Today is your mother’s birthday, so I won’t punish you publicly. Unlike Sun Shaolong, your mistake was unintentional. However, you are not yet qualified to be a Captain!"

Chen Fengzhi trembled. "Yes, sir. I am not qualified."

"You need more training. When you return to the Northern Domain, report to the Intelligence Hall. You will be my direct, exclusive contact. I need someone at the front reporting directly to me!"

What?!

Chen Fengzhi was incredulous. "You’re willing to have me join the Intelligence Hall? Then... then I’ll be one of your people from now on!"

Qin Tianxuan waved his hand dismissively. "You may go. I need to think."

Chen Fengzhi returned on wobbly legs, a dazed smile on her face.

Seeing that she was unharmed, Patriarch Chen and the Second Aunt felt a wave of relief. When they asked for details, they learned she had actually been promoted!

Oh my god!

It was truly a blessing in disguise.

Patriarch Chen and the Second Aunt nearly fell to their knees before Han Qian Jun and his wife again. They were convinced that Weiwei must have put in a good word for them, saving their face.

Seeing his lifelong rival—the very Patriarch Chen who had always looked down on him—acting this way, Han Qian Jun couldn’t bring himself to laugh.

His mind was still in turmoil.

Qin Tianxuan’s true identity was just too terrifying.

Just then, Qin Tianxuan walked in from outside, his expression as calm as ever. Seeing Uncle Han staring into space, he approached with a smile. "Uncle Han, shall we get back to dinner?"

Han Qian Jun trembled, about to kowtow.

This startled Qin Tianxuan. "Uncle Han, what are you doing?"

"Ah, please don’t call me that! I’m truly not worthy. You can just call me Lao Han!" Han Qian Jun was still trembling.

Even Jiang Wan Jun didn’t dare to look up now.
