Chapter 323

~6 min read 1,184 words

Yan Fei, already dressed, knelt respectfully before Ying Su!

Kowtowing to Ying Su, she said:

"I, Fei Yan, daughter of Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School, pledge to serve the Emperor!"

"Hmm!"

Ying Su nodded, then spoke: "Go, return to the Yin-Yang School, and prepare for its destruction on my behalf!"

"After I destroy the Yin-Yang School, I will restore your freedom!"

"Th-thank... thank you, Your Majesty!"

In the blink of an eye, Yan Fei departed!

And Ying Su turned to look at Snow Woman: "Look, Fei Yan has, through her own efforts, nearly regained her freedom. What about you? When will you be free?"

"I truly worry for you!"

As he spoke, he sighed, then suddenly pulled her into his arms!

He had planned to play with Yan Fei, but that didn't happen!

So he merely used her mouth as a tool.

But that wasn't satisfying enough!

No matter how satisfying the mouth, it's not Bai Hu!

Playing with Bai Hu is truly satisfying!

Playing with Bai Hu is thrilling!

And Snow Woman began to cry!

Crying with heart-wrenching anguish, tears streaming like pear blossoms in the rain!

This time, inexplicably, she actually embraced Ying Su!

Then, she began to weep!

Wailing in loud, unrestrained grief!

In the blink of an eye, three days passed!

On this very day, Ying Su's great army broke camp!

The great army marched in grand procession, every face wearing a smile of satisfaction and joy!

These three days, they had been utterly ecstatic!

Three days of unparalleled bliss!

However... after their ecstasy, they did not forget to thank Ying Su!

Ying Su truly treated them, his soldiers, exceedingly well!

Yet at the same time, their fighting spirit soared.

Once they reached the Great Snow Mountain, they would fiercely slaughter the Xiongnu soldiers.

Helping the Emperor accomplish the great feat of destroying the Xiongnu!

And it was also on this very day!

Li Yuanba's horse had recovered.

This horse had regained its former vitality!

Ten thousand li by day, eight thousand by night!

And the moment Wanli Yanyunzhao recovered, Li Yuanba mounted Wanli Yanyunzhao and rode straight south!

Back to the Qin State, back to Xianyang City!

And on the return journey, he would have to pass through Yan Sect Pass!

This place is the first line of defense for the Great Qin against the Xiongnu!

Likewise, this is the only route back to the Qin State!

Wanli Yanyunzhao moved with incredible speed!

It galloped across the grasslands like a black lightning bolt!

In less than two hours, he was already standing beneath the city gate of Yan Sect Pass!

145. Is the city gate of Yan Sect Pass thicker than that of Xianyanggong? Li Yuanba laughed!

Inside Yan Sect Pass!

During this period, Meng Wu and General Meng Tian had almost daily dispatched scouts to investigate the battle situation between Ying Su and the Xiongnu!

Almost every day, scouts traveled thousands of li from the front lines to deliver battle reports to Meng Wu!

"Report! The marshland outside Hulun Grassland is now completely frozen solid; Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu's advantage in the marshes is gone. Han Xin's army could launch an attack at any moment!"

"Report! Han Xin's great army has completely surrounded Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu, shrinking the encirclement by twenty li each day!"

"Report! Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu led one hundred thousand men attempting to escape the marshland on the twentieth day, but was blocked by Li Cunxiao alone, who killed eighty thousand of Chanyu Modu's men by himself!"

"Report! Ying Su issued an edict informing all masters of the Central Plains that anyone who escapes before the battle begins will be pardoned! Chinese do not kill Chinese; Qin people do not kill Qin people! Over two thousand masters from the Central Plains have all fled!"

"Report! The battle has begun! Han Xin attacked Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu; the surrendered masters of the Central Plains assaulted Chanyu Modu's military camp. In this battle, Chanyu Modu suffered a crushing defeat: over ten thousand fled, twenty thousand were scattered, and the remaining three hundred and ten thousand were all killed!"

At this moment, gazing at these battle reports in their hands, Meng Wu and General Meng Tian were filled with dread and trembling fear!

There were too many things that shocked them!

They had originally thought Li Yuanba alone was a god-like existence, but... Li Cunxiao killed eighty thousand men by himself!

Such a feat is simply terrifying!

They were also shocked by Han Xin's military tactics: using only one hundred thousand men to surround nearly four hundred thousand of Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu's forces!

Moreover, even with the two fierce generals Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao, he showed not the slightest urgency, instead employing a siege of annihilation that seemed like fighting yet wasn't!

Furthermore, Ying Su's political maneuvering, such skillful sowing of discord, how could an ordinary person possibly withstand it!

"Young Master Prince Fusu is absolutely no match for this boy!"

General Meng Tian spoke up!

Tell Meng Wu nodded: "Indeed!"

"It is not just Young Master Prince Fusu who cannot fight him; even the Emperor's other sons would equally be no match for him!"

"This man is ruthless, using others' blades to kill, mastering all sorts of schemes; Young Master Prince Fusu is naturally kind and benevolent—how could he be his match?"

"Then... what about us?"

General Meng Tian grew even more worried!

Because... after this battle, the decisive battle would soon begin.

After the decisive battle, it would be the day Facing Ying Su's great army returned; at that time, what should be done?

As he worried, Tell Meng Wu's brows also tightened!

However, before he could devise a countermeasure, suddenly, a soldier outside reported: "General, Li Yuanba has arrived and is calling at the city gate!"

"What?"

The moment the words left his mouth, General Meng Tian's head buzzed with a faint sound!

Tell Meng Wu also felt dizzy and faint!

At some point, even Prince Prince Fusu had run over, saying in extreme terror: "Li... Li Yuanba?"

"That demon has come?"

"Does he intend to kill people?"

Prince Prince Fusu was terrified, his whole body trembling and shaking!

Tell Meng Wu also sucked in cold air again and again!

"This... this came truly fast!"

"The battle report said he only finished fighting the Xiongnu great army at Hulun Grassland three days ago!"

"But today... today he has arrived!"

As he spoke, he swallowed hard!

General Meng Tian said: "He possesses the Ten-Thousand-Mile Cloud-Illuminating Steed; this horse travels ten thousand li by day and eight thousand by night; even a thousand li would take less than two hours, and three or four thousand li would take only two hours!"

As he swallowed, at this very moment, both of them turned to look at Tell Meng Wu, asking what should be done!

"What should be done!"

Tell Meng Wu's scalp prickled; at this very moment, he also did not know what to do!

"Have the soldiers on the city wall shoot him dead!"

Prince Prince Fusu shouted.
