~5 min read 953 words

Batuer shook his head, his face full of horror.

"The sky has fallen?!"

"Go to hell!"

"With the Eternal Heaven above, how could the sky fall?!"

Helian Cha walked over, snatched the secret letter from Batuer's hand, and scanned it with eyes like lightning.

After a long while.

He also froze, muttering to himself.

"Damn the Eternal Heaven!"

"This is more than just the sky falling! It's... the sky collapsing and the earth cracking!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

The group of Xiongnu minor kings and the generals under Helian Cha also became restless.

How did the Eternal Heaven's mother get involved in this?

Helian Cha suddenly looked up, his eyes bursting with immense ecstasy, lingering fear, and a sense of the absurdity of having survived a disaster.

He looked around at everyone, his voice filled with hysterical excitement. "A heaven-sized event has happened in Changancheng of Da Qian!"

"The Living Yama and the Empress of Da Qian have broken off relations, shocking the world. Confirmed... without a doubt!"

Boom!

As soon as this was said, all the Xiongnu generals were shocked, their faces full of disbelief.

Then, it exploded like a sonic boom.

"Great Chanyu, is this true or false?"

"I heard that the most comfortable distance between people is negative three inches. The Empress of Da Qian and the Living Yama were clearly like that. How could they fall out so suddenly?"

"Great Chanyu, be careful of a trap! This Yan Emperor is not a good person either. Maybe he's hiding a big pit for us to jump into first!"

For a time, the Xiongnu generals were first shocked, then filled with deep suspicion, their voices ringing out.

Helian Cha, however, was very calm, the smile at the corners of his mouth widening bit by bit.

"You all worry too much!"

"Does this Chanyu look like a fool? How could I not distinguish truth from falsehood?"

Immediately after, Helian Cha briefly explained Chen Ping's deduction.

When he finished speaking.

The faces of the Xiongnu generals were filled with excitement.

"So that's it!"

"The Living Yama of Da Qian has resigned. This is a heaven-sent blessing for our tribe!"

"In that case, although our Xiongnu lost the fertile land of Hexi, we also caused the Empress of Da Qian and the Living Yama to break off relations. This wave... is not a loss!"

"I originally thought this move by the Great Chanyu was a standard move, or even a mediocre one. I didn't expect it to be a brilliant move!"

Upon hearing this, Helian Cha couldn't help but laugh. He looked at the Xiongnu Left Guli King who spoke of standard, mediocre, and brilliant moves and said, "Full of rhymes, are you going to take the imperial examination in Da Qian?"

"However, in this matter, this Chanyu... indeed deserves great credit!"

"Who would have thought that I only wanted to take revenge on the Living Yama and show sincerity to Great Yan by sending four great gifts, and it actually had this brilliant effect, invisibly driving a wedge between the Living Yama of Da Qian and the Empress!"

Helian Cha laughed, his mood unprecedentedly cheerful, muttering to himself.

The Xiongnu Left Guli King said, "The Great Chanyu is wise and martial. It seemed like you didn't expect it, but in reality, it was the blessing of the Eternal Heaven. The Great Chanyu is on a deeper level!"

"The Great Chanyu is truly a god-like man. This move... is not a loss!"

Everyone flattered him.

"Father Khan, what should we do now?" Batuer asked.

Helian Cha looked through the void, toward the direction of Changancheng, and said with a smile.

"The Yan Emperor said that this fire is not burning fiercely enough, so... it needs to burn even brighter!"

"Pass the order!"

"Gather the troops!"

"This winter is too cold. If we don't go south to plunder, many cattle and sheep will freeze to death, and many tribesmen will freeze to death! But remember, besides plundering, spread the word arrogantly—"

"Without the Living Yama, the Empress of Da Qian is nothing, the officials of Da Qian are nothing. If you're not convinced, come and fight!"

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.

"Yes!"

The Xiongnu Left and Right Luli Kings both cupped their fists and walked away, full of excitement.

The Xiongnu people have always admired strength. In their eyes, it is not Da Qian that is strong, but the Living Yama!

If the Living Yama of Da Qian does not appear, even if all the generals of Da Qian come out, so what?

This century has witnessed too much.

Soon.

When the news of the rift between the Living Yama and the Empress of Da Qian spread, the entire Xiongnu tribe cheered and was invigorated.

Some Xiongnu tribesmen were even moved to tears with excitement.

Then came the soaring fighting spirit and boiling murderous intent.

Plundering in the bitter winter was their way of survival, which had been stagnant for a long time this year due to Gao Yang's might.

At this moment, there were no more scruples!

Batuer said with some concern, "Father Khan, will such provocation backfire?"

Helian Cha shook his head.

"If they hadn't broken off relations, these words would be harmless. But once they have, this is a heart-piercing blade! Wu Zhao's heart... will naturally hurt even more!"

"The Living Yama... is best off dying in this storm!"

"Even if we take a step back and it really backfires, it doesn't matter. If the two of them don't reconcile, our tribe is fine. If they do reconcile, whether our tribe provokes them or not, they will have to fight us!"

"Might as well... add some chaos!"
