Lin Yi sends Leng Yu back to You Country for safety and travels with the old man towards Yan Country. The old man revels in the sensation of flight while wearing a wingsuit. They head towards Yansai City, the edge of Yan Country, where the Yan army is rumored to be gathering due to the turmoil in Zhao Country. Lin Yi observes the impressive scale of Yansai City, noting the Yan Country's strength and potential population pressure driving their ambition to invade You Country. Upon arriving, Lin Yi confirms the presence of a large Yan army, around 50,000 troops, within the city.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now? Should we just take him down directly?"

While Lin Yi was observing the city walls, Lu Zheng, standing beside him, suddenly spoke with an expression of immense excitement on his face.

It was as if he was even happier than if he himself were the one charging in to capture the Junior General of this city.

Or perhaps it was a look of Schadenfreude.

As if he wanted others to experience what he had gone through.

Since he himself had already experienced it, it would be quite a pity if the others didn’t get to go through the same. For the old man, this would be a major downside. He was genuinely curious to see what the expressions of the opposing generals would be like when Lin Yi captured them.

After all, when Lin Yi brought back his entire family, the feeling in his heart was quite terrible. It was something he truly wished to share with others.

As the ancient saying goes, "Happiness is better when shared." How could such a good thing be enjoyed by him alone?

However, Lin Yi paid no heed to him as he continued his observation.

He needed to understand the entire geographical environment here before making any plans, after all. He could not entirely replicate the methods he used against Lu Zheng before.

Who knew what this guy’s position in the army was?

Who knew if the opponent had the same status in the army as Lu Zheng?

Or if this Grand General was merely a puppet in the army, then capturing him wouldn’t help, since who knew the level of control King Yan had over his army?

After a thorough observation, Lin Yi descended to the ground with the old man, grinned, and said,

"Now let’s disguise ourselves in enemy soldiers’ clothes and sneak inside to see what’s going on."

Hearing this, the old man became excited. Previously, Lin Yi had infiltrated his army in such a manner; now, it seemed Lin Yi intended to take him along. But obviously, he didn’t want just any soldier’s clothes; he wanted an officer’s uniform.

"Your Majesty, considering our demeanor, wearing just soldier outfits doesn’t suit us. At the very least, we should get Deputy General uniforms."

Lin Yi gave the old man a once-over, then looked at himself, and nodded in agreement.

"You’re right. Wait here then; I’ll fetch us some clothes."

"Alright, alright, you go ahead, I’ll just wait here, won’t go anywhere."

As he spoke, Lin Yi disappeared in a flash in front of Lu Zheng. After a quarter of an hour, Lin Yi returned with two sets of clothes.

Upon finding the old man, he tossed him a set of clothing and quickly changed himself. In a short while, Lin Yi was clad in Yan Country General’s attire.

Seeing Lin Yi in the full General outfit, the old man felt rather bitter and hesitantly said to Lin Yi,

"Your Majesty, didn’t you perhaps mix up the clothes?"

Lin Yi looked at the old man in confusion, then down at his own General armor, and asked with a puzzled expression,

"Did I mix it up? No, this is General armor I’m wearing, isn’t it?"

As he said this, he spread his arms to proudly showcase his General armor.

It must be said, Lin Yi already had a tall and handsome figure, and wearing the armor only made him appear more robust, like a dashing young general.

Wearing this armor out, who knows how many thousands of young girls he’d enchant?

Feeling quite confident in his appearance, Lin Yi was also particularly satisfied with the clothes he had procured.

But seeing Lin Yi’s beaming face, Lu Zheng was filled with bitterness.

His expression was as if he’d swallowed a fly and was feeling even worse.

After a while, he reluctantly pointed to the clothes in his arms and, after hesitating for a long time, finally couldn’t hold back and said in a grumbling tone,

"Yes, you’re wearing it right, you’ve got the General’s attire, but look at what I have, how come it’s a regular soldier’s uniform?

Not expecting to wear attire like yours, a General of Brave Cavalry, at the very least, we should have gotten a Deputy General’s outfit. If not that, even a Centurion’s would do."

Indeed, at this moment, the old man was wearing the most ordinary soldier’s uniform, not even a Centurion’s, let alone anything grander.

Heh, saying Centurion might even be an exaggeration now; the old man almost begged Lin Yi to at least get him a Sergeant’s uniform.

But on hearing this, Lin Yi looked at the old man with confusion:

"Yes, the one for you is a soldier’s uniform, what’s wrong with that?"

The old man almost cursed out loud; if it weren’t Lin Yi, he would’ve definitely started cursing!

The nerve! You got yourself a General of Brave Cavalry’s uniform while I ended up with soldier’s clothes.
