Chương 64: You want me to join the revolutionary army?

Besides their normal use, Imperial Arms usually have "secret techniques" or other hidden tricks up their sleeves.

In order to use the "secret techniques" of Imperial Arms, in addition to the user needing to have a very high level of proficiency in using the Imperial Arms, they also need to endure certain side effects.

The imperial assassins hadn't expected that their comrade, who had burned his soul and risked his life, would have no effect on this man with his "secret technique."

His companion had been turned into an ice sculpture by the fire of the dead, and eventually vanished into ice shards in the air. So why was the person in front of him completely unharmed?

You must know that's the most powerful undead fire of the super dangerous species, the undead dragon Spitz!

Seeing the Imperial assassin, who had been pierced through the chest by a long sword and was barely breathing, Yang Cheng's eye suddenly flashed with blue light.

Then, the azure flames immediately spread from his arm to the entire blade of the "Undead Knight".

As he felt a bone-chilling cold freeze his blood at an alarming speed, the imperial assassin murmured as his body was completely covered in ice, "Who... are you...?"

"As for me, I'm just a retired imperial general who happened to be passing by... oh no, I should say a knight who just happened to be passing by..."

As Yang Cheng finished speaking, the imperial assassin in front of him had already turned into an ice sculpture. It was unknown whether he had heard what Yang Cheng said in the end.

When he pulled out the knife, the other person's body shattered completely, turning into a pile of broken ice.

Picking up the mask-shaped Imperial Arms "Balzac" that had fallen from the broken ice, and then looking at the dark blue longsword "Undead Knight" in his hand, Yang Cheng ultimately felt that the longsword was cooler.

Of course, the key point is that this long sword Imperial Arms can actually transform into a set of armor that can be worn.

You know, transforming is every man's romance. After all, strength is secondary; being handsome is the most important thing.

Seeing that Yang Cheng had single-handedly killed all the Imperial personnel who were chasing her, Najenda, who witnessed all of this from a short distance away, completely fainted on the spot when her mind relaxed.

When Najendan awoke again, it was already evening.

In the simple wooden hut, Yang Cheng roasted a dangerous creature he had hunted by the campfire.

Just as Najenda was about to get up, her injuries suddenly triggered a sharp pain, causing the valiant imperial general to wince in agony.

"It's best not to move around too much. I'm not good at treating injuries. Your injuries are too severe. I only did some simple bandaging and hemostasis."

As for your right eye and right arm, it's a great pity we couldn't save them; in fact, without timely amputation, you might not have survived.

Najendan's injuries were extremely serious; her right eye and right arm were almost completely ruined.

Moreover, despite losing too much blood and being pursued, she was still able to run so far. Yang Cheng even thought that the female general of the empire had truly abnormal physical abilities.

"It's alright. I'm already incredibly lucky to have survived this time."

"But I never expected to run into you here, and even be saved by you, Yang Cheng."

Najenda was also an Imperial General and a close friend of Esdeath.

Therefore, as Esdeath's subordinate, Najenda naturally knew Yang Cheng.

As for why Najenda, as an Imperial general, was hunted down by Imperial assassins, it was because she decided to betray the Empire and join the Revolutionary Army.

Since the young emperor ascended the throne and the power of the empire fell entirely into the hands of the ministers, the entire empire has been in a state of misery.

Najenda, who cared deeply for the people of the Empire and possessed a strong sense of justice, naturally could not tolerate such a thing happening.

She knew that overthrowing the minister's rule was not something she could do alone, and she had witnessed the fate of those officials who opposed him.

Therefore, in order to overthrow the empire and also to bring about the demise of the ministers and their entourage, Najenda could only think of relying on external forces, namely the revolutionary army.

In fact, the person who caused her to lose her right eye and right arm, and even seriously injured and killed her, was her former colleague and friend Esdeath.

Najenda even suspected that her escape from Esdeath was a result of Esdeath deliberately giving her a break.

When Najenda fled to the northern border and encountered Yang Cheng, she initially thought that Yang Cheng was sent by Esdeath to hunt her down.

After all, Esdeath's rather wicked personality meant that she had often let her enemies go, only to hunt them down later, causing them to completely break down mentally.

"I have been out of the Imperial Army for some time now, and have been living on this border for a month or two."

"You've left Esdeath's army? In that case, perhaps...?"

Before Najenda could finish speaking, Yang Cheng interrupted her, saying, "Let me join the Revolutionary Army with you?"

"Forget it, I have no plans to join the revolutionary army for now. If you weren't the one being chased today, I wouldn't even bother with you."

Whether the people of the empire are suffering or not, Yang Cheng will only feel sympathy, but he will not meddle in their affairs.

After all, he was originally a member of the Baruts tribe from the northern border. What the empire did was none of his business.

Najendan looked disappointed upon hearing Yang Cheng's refusal.

After all, Najenda had seen the strength Yang Cheng had previously displayed.

Previously, she believed that Esdeath relied more on the "Three Beast Warriors," so she always thought that Yang Cheng was just an ordinary imperial general.

But now it seems that things are clearly not like that.

To kill two of the Empire's "Elite Seven" in a one-against-two battle, while the opponents' carelessness played a part, undoubtedly demonstrates that his strength ranks among the top of the Empire's generals.

Perhaps he's not as strong as that monster Esdeath, but the strength Yang Cheng displayed before should have far surpassed his own.

Although she didn't know why Yang Cheng left Esdeath, Najenda saw it as an opportunity.

Although she decided to join the Revolutionary Army, Najenda didn't know much about the people in the high command.

Are they truly only interested in saving the people of the empire from revolution, or are they simply trying to overthrow the empire to satisfy their own ambitions?

As a former general of the empire, even if she joined the revolutionary army, there were very few people she could trust.

But Yang Cheng is different. Although they didn't have much interaction before, they had at least met.

Yang Cheng withdrew from the Imperial Army, which shows that he had long disapproved of Esdeath and her group's actions.

Furthermore, Yang Cheng had saved her this time, which made Najenda believe that Yang Cheng was at least someone she could trust.
