Master Head of the Dragon Soul novel Chapter 657

Ever since Chu Feng resigned, all three military regions and eight royal clans, including Crown Prince Hua, fought to gain control of Xi Ye.

In five years, the border command center was split into multiple factions, which gave invaders the chance to slip through.

The invaders looted and pillaged as they pleased while the military was busy with infighting. That was the main reason why Xi Xia was so brazen.

A war at the western border was on the horizon.

"It's time to clean up the mess at Xi Ye," Chu Tianxiong said after a moment of deliberation. "We need to send someone who is assertive and charismatic to take the lead."

Weng Bo smiled. "Do you need to look any farther than your family, Lord Chu? Who else is more qualified than Master Feng to take control of Xi Ye?"

Chu Tianxiong said nothing. He took the cup of herbal tea and finished it.

The next morning, Chu Feng read about the western border invasion in the morning news and on the Internet.

"After several invasion attempts at the western border, Donghua forces were engaged with Xi Xia invaders in a firefight that resulted in 17 deaths and 36 injuries. In response to the invasion, the Department of Defense has issued a statement condemning the invaders…"

On the Internet, patriotic citizens were up in arms.

"What's the point of condemning? Are we just going to sit back and let them invade us? And I thought Xi Ye soldiers were the most skilled in the country. Looks like they're nothing but cowards!"

"Hey, don't you know? The Xi Ye now is the total opposite of five years ago. After the Dragon Lord resigned, everyone wanted to be the leader. It's a total mess there."

"Well, if the Dragon Lord is still around, the Xi Xia monkeys wouldn't dare be so brazen! This is ridiculous!"
