Chapter 670

Dorne, Lei De Mountains, Tower of Joy.

Under the scorching sun, a hot, gusty wind blew past.

When everyone drew their swords, Zhang Cheng looked at Arthur Dayne and said, "It seems the negotiations have failed!"

"Make your move, Rosai. We also want to know just how strong your swordsmanship really is!"

Stepping forward, the sturdy "Iron Bull" Gerold Hightower spoke up.

Hearing his words, Zhang Cheng gripped the Dragon-Slayer in his hand and charged forward, his strength continuously erupting.

"Boom!"

Under the violent slash, Iron Bull Hightower was sent flying directly, crashing heavily into a pile of stones.

Seeing this scene, Arthur Dayne also hurriedly drew his dual swords and stepped forward.

Under the fierce fighting between the two sides, Whent, who was on the side, also hurriedly helped.

Fighting three against one, Zhang Cheng dodged with leisurely steps and said, "I can give you one last chance. Put down your weapons; the war is already over, and Rhaegar is dead!"

"We swore our loyalty to the Iron Throne, not to Baratheon!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Arthur Dayne roared angrily.

"Then you can go die together with the Mad King Aerys!"

Rotating the Dragon-Slayer in his hand, Zhang Cheng backhanded a strike onto Whent's shoulder.

"Ah!"

Under the shrill scream, Whent's shoulder was severed.

But just at the moment Gerold Hightower was distracted, Zhang Cheng quickly drew the dagger from his waist and pierced it directly through his throat.

Looking at Zhang Cheng in disbelief, Arthur Dayne seemed not to have expected that Zhang Cheng would use such methods.

But before he could be shocked, the two longswords in his hands were severed, because the strength of the Dragon-Slayer was not something ordinary swords could compare to.

Just as Arthur Dayne hadn't yet drawn Dawn, Zhang Cheng had already arrived before him.

However, looking at Arthur Dayne, Zhang Cheng hesitated, because he actually had a marriage alliance with House Dayne.

"Why don't you strike? You should have killed me!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Arthur Dayne couldn't help but become serious.

"Puchi!"

As his longsword pierced Arthur Dayne's thigh, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said, "Is that enough, Eddard?"

"Enough!"

Seeing that Zhang Cheng had already executed Whent and Gerold Hightower, Eddard couldn't help but raise his hand to stop him.

Because he also understood the relationship between House Dayne of Starfall and House Ce Lin Gen.

The two sides were about to marry into each other; if Zhang Cheng killed Arthur now, it would be lucky if they didn't tear each other apart!

"You lost even when it was three against one; what else is there to say!"

Looking at Arthur Dayne with annoyance, Zhang Cheng truly looked down on this brother-in-law of his.

Because didn't he know what would happen to Ashara Dayne once he died?

As the clear heir, after Arthur died, where would the future of House Dayne be!

Drawing the Dragon-Slayer, Zhang Cheng stepped forward and backhanded a sword through Whent's chest.

He couldn't kill Arthur Dayne, but Whent wasn't his brother-in-law!

Zhao Zhen: Look, look, the nemesis of brothers-in-law!

Cheng Jie: Backstabbing brothers-in-law, he's a professional!

Squatting down, Zhang Cheng helped Arthur Dayne bandage his wound, the magic swirling in his palm controlling the speed of the blood flow.

Otherwise, by the time he finished bandaging, Arthur Dayne's leg would be ruined.

As for why Zhang Cheng did this, it was all for Eddard to see!

After all, if he didn't use ruthless methods, whether Arthur Dayne could even walk out of Dorne was a question!

Didn't you see that the people Eddard brought were all squire knights?

In the Middle Ages, squire knights meant personal guards; they were selected reserve nobles, which meant they were loyal to the death!

Walking into the Tower of Joy, Eddard's world collapsed, because Lyanna was actually holding a boy.

This looked just like Rhaegar's son.

But the problem was, as an older brother, Eddard had just overthrown the rule of House Targaryen; wasn't this like sweeping for mines and finding one right on top of his own head?

Looking at Eddard before her, Lyanna clearly knew she wouldn't live much longer and immediately begged her brother to spare this child.

And facing his sister's request, how could Eddard refuse!

Caressing Lyanna's face, Eddard finally decided to spare the child.

However, when he came out holding the child, a hint of solemnity appeared on Zhang Cheng's face, because if he killed Jon Snow here, would it prove that this world had completely collapsed?

But just as Zhang Cheng intended to test it, he vaguely felt a gaze watching him. Turning his head, Zhang Cheng looked at a raven and immediately revealed a smile.

And when the Three-Eyed Raven, who had traveled through the river of time, saw Zhang Cheng's smile, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, because he discovered he was being stared at!

"Rosai!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng reveal a smile at a raven, Eddard couldn't help but speak up.

"I know what you want to say, but I don't know anything!"

Hearing Eddard's words, Zhang Cheng hurriedly explained.

"Thank you, Rosai!"

Thanking Zhang Cheng, Eddard couldn't help but feel relieved at this moment.

Because Zhang Cheng was indeed the "upright" knight he had imagined!

However, Eddard didn't know that if it weren't for the Three-Eyed Raven, Zhang Cheng would have already made his move!

After all, compared to the Mountain, the "chaotic neutral" Zhang Mouren was truly devoid of any "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust"!

After leaving the Tower of Joy, Zhang Cheng sent Arthur Dayne back to Starfall.

Before the city gate, looking at the guards who came to welcome them, Zhang Cheng said, "Forget what you saw at the Tower of Joy, otherwise everyone will be in trouble!"

But after hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Arthur Dayne said seriously, "I will absolutely not let Ashara marry a bastard like you!"

"Thank you for the compliment! But I have no interest in a marriage alliance with House Dayne either. Keep your sister for the New Year, you idiot!"

!

Looking at Arthur Dayne with disdain, Zhang Cheng turned around, mounted his horse, and left.

And just after Zhang Cheng left, Ashara, who had run out wearing a dress, said, "Big brother, where is Rosai? Didn't he send you back?"

But looking at his sister's excited appearance, Arthur Dayne said, "He has already left, and that bastard is not worth you marrying into!"

"Why? But Uncle Andrew clearly likes me very much!"

Looking at Arthur Dayne, Ashara hurriedly explained.

"That Andrew is just a steward and cannot make decisions!"

Scolding Ashara, Arthur Dayne became serious.

"But the family has already agreed!"

Looking at Arthur Dayne, Ashara then said, "By the way, will Lyanna come? Big brother!"

"Lyanna is already dead!"

Speaking silently, Arthur Dayne slowly covered his face, because he had also lost his prince and lost his responsibility.

After returning to King's Landing, everything seemed to become quiet.

Under the negotiations of all parties, House Tyrell also mixed into the "victorious" side!

Seeing Zhang Cheng appear, Redwyne happily raised his wine glass and stepped forward, saying, "Hey, Rosai, how about a drink!"

Looking at Redwyne, who was once a prisoner, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but cover his face.

Because their various methods reminded him of "Italy"!

Clearly standing on the enemy's side, how did they manage to mix into the victors' camp?

However, Zhang Cheng did not act rudely; instead, he stepped forward with a face full of smiles and said, "I'm very happy to see you again, Paxter!"

Embracing the other party, Zhang Cheng said, "Do you need to buy a galleon? Sixty thousand gold dragons each; I guarantee your fleet will become even more powerful!"

"But I've inquired, one of your galleons only costs five thousand gold dragons..."

Looking at Zhang Cheng with suspicion, Redwyne became confused.

"Oh, you're talking about the old model. Our new galleons don't just have crossbows, they even have cannons! They're the kind of things that can blast a dragon down with one explosion! Believe me, you'll be very satisfied!"

Patting Redwyne on the shoulder, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile.

Because there were no cannons at all; give him two tiger-crouching cannons, and Redwyne would probably dare to attack Braavos!

Braavos: What the hell...
