The Legendary Man

Chapter 530 Exchanging Strikes

The young man was taken aback to see Wilbur here. “Lieutenant General Xanthos…” he greeted carefully. The young man recalled how he was cut short earlier as panic flashed across his gaze.

Wilbur chuckled gaily. “Why are you looking at me this way?” As his lips curled, the scar on his face turned more menacing. Anyone would shiver in fright at the sight.

“Are you feeling guilty as I caught you badmouthing me behind my back?” Wilbur burst out laughing. The young man paled instantly as cold sweat trickled down his face.

Behind him, someone placed a hand on his shoulder lightly. “What are you doing? Won’t you go back to work?”

Hearing the reminder, the young man lost his balance as though he had just been dragged out of the water. He leaned against the wall and panted heavily.

Wilbur glanced at Joshua and raised his right hand to give him a casual salute. “Commander, there’s no need for you to welcome me personally. I don’t deserve it. Your subordinate is quite interesting, huh? He can’t take a joke.”

The young man stood straight and tamped down his fear to force a smile after hearing Wilbur’s teasing words.

Joshua gave a perfunctory chuckle. “He’s young, but you’re the commander of Yaleview Army, in charge of six hundred thousand soldiers. Even I have to show respect for you, so obviously, he’s afraid of you.”

The smile on Wilbur’s lips froze when he heard Joshua’s words.

He quickly shook his head. “Commander, please don’t joke around. You were the one who appointed me. Even though I have military control, you can take it back anytime.”

“You’re right when you said it was a joke.” Joshua spun on his heels and entered the garden. “Besides, where else could I get such a capable commander if I were to fire you?”
