Chapter 196
When seeing the attire of these people, his pupils contracted violently.
He never expected that the Great Snow Dragon Riders he had waited for so long would appear at this time.
In Xiang Yu's heart, a feeling of panic arose for the first time.
He knew the terror of the Great Snow Dragon Riders.
This army had even wiped out a force as vast as the Daoist School.
Their hasty uprising was also for the purpose of confronting this army.
Yet he did not expect that the army he had waited for so long would appear at this time.
"Engage the enemy."
A roar startled the somewhat exhausted soldiers.
Xiang Yu understood that if this group of soldiers did not engage the enemy, they would only become ghosts under the blades of the Great Snow Dragon Riders.
And this group of Great Snow Dragon Riders would not let them go at all.
Sure enough, as he expected, the Great Snow Dragon Riders began a crazy slaughter as soon as they appeared.
Around Xiang Yu, there were also three Great Snow Dragon Rider soldiers surrounding him.
These three soldiers cooperated in an orderly manner.
Even Xiang Yu could not break free from the entanglement of the three for a moment.
A sense of agitation slowly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
After the soldiers beside him were slaughtered one by one,
the agitation in his eyes slowly faded, replaced by a sense of desolation.
If he hadn't participated in the events of five years ago,
perhaps they wouldn't have provoked such a terrifying existence today.
A trace of regret emerged in Xiang Yu's heart.
But it was too late for regrets now.
Watching the Snow Dragon Riders slowly surrounding him,
a hint of hatred appeared in his eyes.
He was a descendant of the Great Chu.
He possessed the backbone of the Chu State.
He absolutely could not die at the hands of this group.
"Aren't you all here just to kill me?"
"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed today."
After forcing back one of the Snow Dragon Rider soldiers, Xiang Yu rolled on the ground and picked up a long sword.
He placed the long sword directly against his own neck.
"Even if I die, I will not die at the hands of your lot."
"My Chu State has no hope of restoration, and you won't last long either."
Although Xiang Yu did not know who was behind these ghosts,
he cursed them, knowing they would not endure.
Then, he forcefully drew the blade across his neck.
When Xiang Liang rushed over, this was the scene he saw.
"No!"
A roar could not stop Xiang Yu's actions.
Until Xiang Yu's body slowly went limp and fell to the ground.
Xiang Liang caught his nephew's body.
"Why are you so foolish? Why are you so impulsive?"
Xiang Liang's eyes were filled with regret.
"Uncle, I am a man of Chu after all; I cannot die in their hands."
"I have no regrets."
Xiang Yu used his last breath to finish this sentence.
Then his entire body went limp, and he completely lost his breath.
Xiang Liang's whole body stiffened.
He had planned for so long, hiding and fleeing for so long.
Today, everything was over.
Whether it was the great cause of restoration or the desire for revenge.
Looking at the wound on Xiang Yu's neck, a sense of despair flashed in Xiang Liang's eyes.
"Wait for me, Uncle. We two will walk this path together."
After saying this, he picked up the long sword from Xiang Yu's hand, aimed it at his own chest, and thrust it in.
The long sword pierced through his chest.
A smile appeared on Xiang Liang's face.
The burden that had weighed on him for so long could finally be eased at this moment.
After confirming that both men were truly dead, the Snow Dragon Riders launched a frenzied slaughter of the remaining Chu remnants in Chenzhong.
It had only been the time it takes to drink a few cups of tea.
This group vanished without a trace once again.
By the time Wang Jian and the others reacted, the entire Taiyuan Commandery had fallen into silence.
It was as if it were a dead city.
"That was the ghostly Snow Dragon Riders, wasn't it?"
Someone beside Wang Jian whispered.
As if speaking any louder would provoke that group.
"Shut up, go in and check the situation."
Wang Jian cut the man off and ordered everyone to enter and investigate.
Soldiers quickly flooded into Taiyuan Commandery.
The streets and the city walls were covered in corpses.
Bodies lay everywhere, drenched in blood.
"Report to the Old General, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang are both dead."
"All the Chu remnants are dead."
The soldiers quickly took control of the situation in Taiyuan Commandery and reported the news to Wang Jian.
Wang Jian had not expected this group to slaughter all the Chu remnants in such a short time.
Fusu, who had been unwilling to leave his tent, also received the news.
"In the time it takes to drink a few cups of tea, they slaughtered all the Chu remnants."
"These Snow Dragon Riders are truly terrifying."
Fusu was somewhat shocked by the terror of this power.
"These ghosts appeared suddenly within the borders of Xianyang City."
"They even claim to be under Young Master Mo's command. Does the Young Master know nothing about this?"
Zhang Liang asked tentatively from the side.
Their Confucian school was equally curious about these ghosts.
But this force was far too mysterious.
Even if their Confucian school wanted to investigate, they could find nothing.
So Zhang Liang could only try to probe for information from Fusu.
"Father has never mentioned this person to me."
"The ghosts do not interfere in any affairs of the Great Qin. If they do intervene, it means this person is definitely involved in the events of five years ago."
Fusu did not know much about the ghosts either.
However, since these ghosts claimed to be his elder brother's subordinates, his impression of them was quite good.
"Now that the Chu remnants have been completely wiped out, Old General Wang will likely return to the capital next."
"Your plans will likely come to nothing."
Zhang Liang said.
"That is not necessarily true."
I fear those behind the scenes are the ones who should be anxious now.
Everyone knows the terror of the ghosts.
Now that the Chu remnants are completely destroyed, the ghosts' gaze will naturally turn toward those behind them.
Those hiding in the shadows, in order not to be exposed,
will likely be even more anxious than I am.
A smile slowly spread across Fusu's lips.
Old General Wang, just as Zhang Liang had thought, planned to return to Xianyang the next day.
This time, Fusu had no reason to refuse and could only follow the main army to Xianyang.
On the return journey, he was surrounded by the entire army, so naturally, no petty villains came to assassinate him.
It took only a few days.
They had already returned to Xianyang City.
On the night of their return, Fusu went to see Ying Zheng.
