　　Puff！
　　Master Changmei’s nose was broken by Ye Qiu’s punch, and blood spurted out instantly.
　　“Fuck, you little bastard, why did you hit me？” Changmei Zhenren angrily cursed.
　　Ye Qiu said, “The next time you pretend to be Ye Wushuang again, I will twist your head off.”
　　“You dare…”
Changmei Zhenren looked up and saw Ye Qiu’s fierce expression. He shrank his neck in fear and said depressed.
　　“To save you guys, I cut off the eyebrows I’ve kept for decades. Not only do you not appreciate it, but you also hit me. My heart hurts so much, wuwuwu…”
　　Ye Wudi angrily shouted, “Stop crying！ If you cry again, I’ll chop you off with a knife.”
Immediately, Changmei Zhenren closed his mouth and looked.
　　“This place is not suitable to stay for a long time. Let’s go back！”
　　As soon as Ye Qiu’s voice fell, suddenly the sky shook.
　　Rumble！
　　Dozens of fighter jets appeared in the sky.
　　Then, more than a hundred trucks appeared on the ground, like a long dragon, speeding towards here.
　　The leading one was a military jeep.
Soon, the convoy came to everyone’s front.
The jeep stopped and Tang Fei jumped out of the car and quickly came to the front of Xiao Jiu and the others.
　　Saluted.
　　“Champion Marquis, is your injury serious？” Tang Fei asked when he saw that there was a lot of blood on Xiao Jiu’s body.
　　Xiao Jiu smiled freely： “It’s just a minor injury. Thank you for your concern.”
　　Tang Fei nodded slightly and said, “Old Tang gave the order that since you all have returned, I should take you to see him immediately. But Champion Marquis, you are injured now…”
　　Xiao Jiu smiled freely and said, “This little injury doesn’t affect me going to see Old Tang.”
　　Tang Fei was worried about Xiao Jiu’s injury and said, “Champion Marquis, how about sending you to the hospital for a check-up first and then going to see Old Tang？”
　　Xiao Jiu waved his hand and said, “No need. Let’s go to see Old Tang first！”
　　The group of people prepared to leave here.
　　At this time, Qinglong proposed to take his leave and said, “Champion Marquis, since you are safe now, then Qilin and I will go back first.”
　　Xiao Jiu knew that Qinglong and Qilin were worried about the safety of Cao Yuan and didn’t try to keep them. He said, “Thank you for today’s matter. Go back and tell Cao Yuan that the life he owed me has been paid back.”
　　When I have time to return to the capital, I will go to drink with him.
　　I will arrange a special plane to send you back！
　　Xiao Jiu beckoned a soldier, gave a few instructions, and soon, an armed helicopter flew over and carried Qinglong and Qilin away.
　　Subsequently, Ye Qiu and the others took a car and returned to the headquarters of the Northern Border Military Region.
　　Passing through layers of inspections.
　　Everyone came to the meeting room on the ninth floor.
　　Entering the door, they saw that Old Tang was sitting alone in the middle of the conference table, wearing a gray Zhongshan suit, with an awe-inspiring presence even without anger.
　　“Hello, Chief！”
　　Ye Qiu, Xiao Jiu, Ye Wudi, and Tang Fei saluted Old Tang in unison.
At this moment, the Long-browed True Man also puts away his cynical attitude and saluted Old Tang: Boundless Heavenly Venerable, the Long-browed True Man, the abbot of Longhu Mountain, greets Old Tang.
　　“The True Man doesn’t need to be polite. Please sit down.” Old Tang said in a gentle tone.
　　The Long-browed True Man found a seat near the side and sat down.
　　Immediately after, Old Tang’s gaze fell on Xiao Jiu’s body and said lightly：
　　“Champion Marquis, do you know your crime？”
　　Although Old Tang’s tone was as calm as a lake, it contained a monstrous coercion.
　　This kind of coercion was different from the coercion on a super expert. It was the unique imperial momentum of the person in power.
　　Like Mount Tai pressing down.
　　Even Ye Qiu felt a little scared.
　　Xiao Jiu bent down and said： “Xiao Jiu knows his mistake.”
　　“Where is the mistake？” Old Tang asked again.
　　Xiao Jiu replied： “I shouldn’t have left the North Territory without permission and entered the territory of a neighboring country.”
　　Pa！
　　Old Tang suddenly slapped the table and became angry, scaring everyone.
　　“Xiao Jiu, as the commander of the North Territory, you abandoned your post without permission and entered the territory of a neighboring country. This is a capital crime！”
　　“However, considering that you were avenging your brothers and there was a reason for it, I will not blame you！”
　　“What makes me angry is that you don’t cherish your own life.”
　　“You are an important minister of the country and my right-hand man. At such a young age, if you lose your life in a neighboring country, how can I explain it to the soldiers and civilians in the North Border？”
　　“Xiao Jiu, do you remember what I said to you when I handed over the North Border to you back then？” Old Tang asked.
　　“Remember.” Xiao Jiu said： “The chief said to me at that time that the North Border can be chaotic, but Xiao Jiu cannot die.”
　　“Since you remember, why don’t you cherish your life？” Old Tang suddenly put away his anger and sighed： “Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu, you regarded my words as a passing breeze. It seems that I don’t have any weight in your heart！”
　　When Xiao Jiu heard this, his face changed with fright. He “plopped” down on his knees and hurriedly said： “Chief, you are discerning. Your position in my heart is supreme.”
　　“If it weren’t for you, maybe I would still just be a rough man who knows a little kung fu. Thanks to your discerning eye for heroes, I was able to become the Champion Marquis.”
　　“You handed over the North Border to me, which is a trust in me.”
　　“Everything I have is bestowed by you.”
　　“Your kindness, Xiao Jiu will never forget.”
　　“As for this matter, it was my fault. Please punish me, Chief.”
　　After Xiao Jiu finished speaking, he lowered his head.
　　Old Tang was silent, and the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became oppressive.
　　A full two minutes passed.
　　Elder Tang then stood up, walked in front of Xiao Jiu, and personally helped Xiao Jiu up.
　　Xiao Jiu was a bit flattered： “Chief…”
　　Elder Tang smiled kindly and said： “Xiao Jiu, you did a good job. This time you killed so many masters of the Brahman. Presumably it can deter the neighboring country. In a short time, they dare not act rashly.”
　　”Having a brave man like you is my blessing, the blessing of Huaguo, and even more the blessing of the people in the Northland！”
“Over the years, you have made great contributions to guarding the Northland. As for your unauthorized entering the territory of the neighboring country, although it is a capital crime, but the merits and demerits cancel each other out, so I will not pursue it!
　　Xiao Jiu said gratefully： “Thank you, Chief.”
　　Ye Qiu, who saw this scene beside him, sighed in his heart. Elder Tang was indeed the supreme ruler and played the imperial art of combining kindness and power to perfection.
　　Elder Tang said to Xiao Jiu again： “Remember, don’t do this again. Don’t be so impulsive in the future, otherwise I won’t spare you. By the way, how are your injuries？”
　　”It’s okay, just some skin injuries.” Xiao Jiu smiled.
　　”Go to the hospital and have a careful look later. Be sure not to leave any sequelae.” Elder Tang patted Xiao Jiu’s shoulder, then returned to his seat and looked at Ye Qiu and said：
　　”Ye Qiu, this time you were ordered in a critical moment to rescue the Xiao Jiu Battalion, which saved the Northland from a turmoil and made a great contribution. Therefore, after discussing with the Military God, I decided to give you a little reward.”
　　After Old Tang finished speaking, he took out a small box inlaid with gold and jade and pushed it in front of Ye Qiu.
　　”Open it and take a look.” Old Tang said.
　　Ye Qiu opened the box and saw a purple-gold medal inside. On the front of the medal, the words “Protect the Country” were engraved.
　　Ye Qiu’s heart trembled： “Chief, this is… the Protect the Country Medal？”
