Chapter 1448

"Kill!"

Xia Yu's Iron Pagodas broke through the Tuoba cavalry's blockade and rushed straight toward the Tuoba Great Hall.

"Clang!"

Tuoba Leiting, the Tuoba clan's guardian deity, had emerged from seclusion.

"Where is Your Majesty?"

Watching the cavalry amidst the slaughter, Tuoba Leiting roared loudly.

"Here."

Xia Yu leaped forward at the head of the charge and knelt on one knee before Tuoba Leiting.

"Why does Your Majesty do this?"

Looking at Tuoba Lie kneeling before him, Tuoba Leiting frowned and asked; he felt the situation was not simple.

"Please forgive me for hiding the truth from the elders; in fact, I am not Your Majesty's direct subordinate. I am Tuoba Lie, son of the leader of the Eastern Yi tribe."

"What?"

Tuoba Leiting stared with wide eyes at Tuoba Lie; how could such a change have occurred? Wasn't it said that the entire royal family had been wiped out?

"Your Majesty, at this point, why are you still pretending to be confused?"

Seeing that Tuoba Leiting still refused to believe it, Tuoba Lie grew angry.

"Who are you? Why should I believe you?"

Tuoba Leiting looked at Tuoba Lie and said in a deep voice.

"I am Xia Yu, Crown Prince of the Great Qin. I have come this time to reclaim what belongs to me."

Having spoken, Xia Yu directly revealed his tally.

"Crown Prince of the Great Qin? Impossible. You are clearly just the son of a mere tribal leader."

Tuoba Leiting shook his head and said; Xia Yu's appearance completely overturned his views. If the other party were indeed the Crown Prince of the Great Qin, it would not be difficult to explain why his strength was so high, enabling him to defeat Tuoba Lie.

But where was this? The very edge of the Great Wilderness. Here, apart from his Tuoba clan, the combined forces of all other tribes did not even reach a million, making it impossible to attack the State of Yan.

"Your Majesty, I might as well tell you: we occupied the territory of the Great Wei a month ago. Now the world is divided into three. The leaders of all tribes in the Northern Great Wilderness have agreed to submit to our Great Qin. Our Great Qin's military might is at its peak. If Your Majesty remains stubborn, then this Jiangshan of the Great Jin will belong to our Great Qin."

Seeing Tuoba Leiting's unwilling expression, Xia Yu said indifferently.

These words struck Tuoba Leiting's heart like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. He never imagined that in this short month, the Jiangshan he had painstakingly built over twenty years would be snatched away by foreign enemies.

"You are talking nonsense."

"Hehe... If you don't believe it, you can send scouts out to inquire."

Xia Yu smiled as he spoke; he knew that from this moment on, the situation in the Great Jin had changed completely.

"You all, go down! I have some private matters to discuss with the Crown Prince."

Waving his hand, Tuoba Leiting drove everyone out of the great tent.

"Speak. What exactly do you want?"

"What I want, you know in your heart. Hand over my wife, and I will spare your Tuoba clan from death."

Xia Yu said coldly.

"Hahahaha~!"

Hearing these words, Tuoba Leiting burst into laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"What is Your Majesty laughing at?"

"Laughing at your stupidity, laughing at your arrogance. Xia Yu, you should understand your current situation. What do you have to fight me with? Just your martial arts?"

Tuoba Leiting mocked, believing Xia Yu was nothing but a brute.

"You are right. I rely on the sword in my hand and the armor on my body. As for weapons, you need not try; this sword alone can sever your neck."

Xia Yu pointed to the heavy great axe stuck in the ground. He had obtained this thing from Li Si, specifically for beheading generals of Tuoba Leiting's caliber.

"You..."

Tuoba Leiting was so angered he could not speak, but he had to admit that what Xia Yu said was the truth; he indeed had no way to refute it.

"I admit you are right; the current Tuoba clan no longer enjoys its past glory. But do you really think we have no backup plans?"
