Chapter 1318: The Xiongnu's shock, the furious Batel

~7 min read 1,223 words

"What?"

Once these words were out, Batel stood up in shock.

His eyes carried horror, and his scalp felt as if it had exploded.

Is... is this what he thinks it is?

That Living Yama is this brutal?

The other Xiongnu generals were also stunned; they stood straight one after another, unable to believe it.

A wave of noisy sounds came out uncontrollably.

"The Great E'shi is already so old, and this Living Yama can actually bring himself to do it?"

"Damn it, he's a beast!"

"He truly is worthy of being Da Qian's number one Living Yama; this brat is truly ruthless!"

"I've long heard about these dog-day Qian people; some are complete perverts, especially liking those in their thirties or forties, but now it's clearly even more perverted. This is confirmed; the Da Qian Living Yama is exactly this kind of person."

"But this age is too old, isn't it?"

"I heard that Living Yama has never done a human thing; what kind of good person is called a Living Yama!"

"These words make sense. Poor Great E'shi... she was actually defiled by this brat."

"Stop talking, do you want to die? Didn't you see His Highness's face is as black as charcoal?"

"Wait, why is the Right Worthy King's face even uglier?"

"Hiss! I remember now, the Great E'shi seems to be the Right Worthy King's father's woman. In that case..."

At this time.

A sorrowful voice suddenly resounded through the tent.

"Second Mother!"

Xiongnu Right Worthy King Luandi Heyang shouted, suddenly clenching his fists.

"Damn Living Yama, I must slaughter you, eat your flesh, and drink your blood, otherwise this hatred will not be extinguished!"

Although on the grassland, because of the harsh environment, there is even a tradition of sons inheriting all of their father's women except their biological mother, their concept in this regard is extremely thin.

Just like Batel, who didn't care at all whether Gao Yang had touched Chu Qingluan; to him, that didn't count for anything at all.

This is caused by the environment and customs.

But Gao Yang's behavior was different; this was equivalent to directly slapping him in the face!

It's estimated that Gao Yang didn't expect that his few short sentences would actually severely wound the Xiongnu Right Worthy King...

Azali looked at the furious Luandi Heyang and Batel, whose teeth were almost broken, and his heart was in a battle between heaven and man.

That Living Yama had humiliated him so much; he should have exaggerated the facts a bit to stir up conflict.

In this way, once the decisive battle started, that Living Yama would be hunted down by the Xiongnu's thousands of horses.

But even if Azali hadn't read many books and didn't have much culture in his brain, he also knew clearly that Gao Yang had no good intentions. He had his own bottom line; this move had great danger for Batel.

On one side was personal enmity, on the other was the Xiongnu's great cause!

Azali gritted his teeth and said, "Right Worthy King, Your Highness, don't be angry yet. The Great E'shi is temporarily... temporarily... not in danger yet!"

Once these words were out.

Swish, swish, swish.

Numerous gazes looked over, and Batel suddenly felt a sigh of relief in his heart.

If Gao Yang had truly done this beastly thing, his reputation would certainly be ruined, but at the same time, he, Batel, would never be able to hold his head up again.

Wouldn't that Gao Yang have acted as his great-grandfather for once?

But before this breath was completely released, he heard Luandi Heyang's voice.

"Done is done, not done is not done. What does this 'temporarily not in danger' mean?"

Batel also frowned, realizing the point, "Azali, don't say half of what you mean. What does this 'temporarily not in danger' mean?"

Azali hurriedly replied, "Because that Living Yama has ideas, but hasn't put them into action yet!"

"The Living Yama let me return to pass a message to Your Highness!"

Batel's pupils shrank.

"Pass a message to me? What message?"

"That Da Qian Living Yama said that whoever knows the food on the plate, whoever is not ordinary, and because Your Highness said he was incompetent, he is extremely angry."

"Therefore, he challenges Your Highness to a battle: five days later, both sides will lead eight hundred troops each to engage in a decisive battle!"

"If Your Highness doesn't go, then he... will defile the Great E'shi in front of everyone here in the Xuanshui River Bend, letting all the Xiongnu see whether he is ordinary or not."

Once these words were out.

Bang!

Batel was so angry that he flipped the table over; the fine mutton and wine on the table scattered all over the ground.

He was filled with fury, and his angry voice echoed out.

"Da Qian deceives me too much!"

"This Living Yama deceives me too much!"

Heaven have mercy, when had he, Batel, ever mocked the Living Yama for being incompetent?

He hadn't said half a word.

"The Da Qian Empress deserves to die, and this Living Yama also deserves to die!"

Batel was furious.

His eyes carried endless rage, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Some generals were filled with confusion, so they asked the generals to their left and right in low voices.

A general on the side who knew explained in a low voice, "At the beginning, when His Highness and the Great Chanyu invaded Da Qian, His Highness had released a small soldier from Da Qian to pass a message. His Highness hadn't said anything, but the Da Qian Empress said in public that His Highness mocked the Living Yama for being incompetent and wanted to fiercely poke the Chu Princess to let her feel the taste of a woman."

"Then that Living Yama offered a plan to mix poison into the grain and sell Five-Stone Powder to us..."

Following these words, everyone had a look of sudden realization.

Some time ago, this matter caused a huge uproar, and a huge disturbance was set off across the entire grassland. Regarding the food they ate, they were even more cautious.

They would rather buy grain from within Da Qian at a high price than dare to be the slightest bit careless.

So the root was here!

But as it happened, Batel hadn't said anything.

A dignified Empress actually playing at framing and entrapment!

A burly Xiongnu general spoke up, "Your Highness, since there is a misunderstanding, why not clear it up!"

"We will clarify it, and this matter will be over!"

Once these words were out.

Batel's tiger eyes suddenly looked at this general.

He strode forward, grabbed him by the collar, and said coldly, "I didn't do it, why explain? Not to mention whether this Living Yama believes it or not, if you want me to bow to him, you might as well kill me!"

"Hmph!"

"He wants a decisive battle, then I will fight him. I want to personally twist his head off and kick it like a ball!"

"Otherwise, this hatred will not be extinguished!"

But just as these words were spoken, Wang Xin spoke up, "Your Highness, absolutely not!"

"This Living Yama is clearly using a provocation tactic to lure our army into attacking; we must not fall for it!"
