boom!
Above the sky, an explosion of energy transformed this place into a battlefield of carnage.
"Is this all the great general of Jin is capable of?"
Suddenly, a disdainful voice rang out, and a figure plummeted from the sky like a meteor, crashing heavily into the ground and creating countless cracks.
He seemed to want to stand up, but the injuries he was experiencing made his hands hang limply at his sides, and his face turned extremely pale.
General Xingjian descended from the sky, his sword touching Xu Zhian's neck. The icy touch made the latter swallow hard.
'You... are demon soldiers...'
His voice was low, but filled with deep resentment.
His robes were torn to shreds, and blood filled his chest, making him look extremely pitiful. Clearly, Andy Hui was now critically injured and on the verge of death.
He looked at General Xingjian with disbelief on his face. He never imagined that the other party could actually be resurrected and destroy his entire plan.
"Demon soldiers? We helped the Jin Kingdom resist the demon race, yet you launched a sneak attack. Who is the demon?"
"Goodbye."
The sword fell, blood splattered, and Andy Hui's eyes widened as if he wanted to say something, but before he could utter a word, he breathed his last.
With the passing of Andy Hui's life, the great general of the Jin Kingdom ended his military campaign here.
Countless Jin soldiers stared at the dead Xu Zhian, their minds seemingly blocked by something. They then dropped their weapons and remained motionless.
"It's over..."
Guan Jiao, Xun Mu, and the others also witnessed this scene and secretly gasped. In just a few minutes, Xu Zhian was dead, which terrified the four Hanlin scholars. They were originally from the Yanhuang Kingdom, but now that they had defected to the Jin Kingdom, they were considered heinous criminals. Now that their power was gone, if they were caught, they would be doomed.
"It seems that the relationship between Jin and Yanhuang is going to deteriorate further. I wonder how Jin will treat us when they find out about Xu Zhian's death."
Ye Ru watched as the situation gradually calmed down, with only the four Hanlin scholars still putting up a stubborn resistance. He couldn't help but sigh, and then slowly said.
After this incident, the Yanhuang Kingdom will surely be punished by the Jin Kingdom. We must think of a way to deal with it before then.
"retreat!"
As if he had thought of something, Xun Mu shouted and tried to retreat.
"We can't let them escape!"
With a fierce roar, the Star Ape King swung his golden cudgel, striking a scholar's head and shattering it.
"Zhang Dong, please spare us for the sake of our past as classmates."
With nowhere to run, Xun Mu turned around, knelt down suddenly in front of Zhang Dong, and begged for mercy.
"Yes, we are not going to surrender to the State of Jin, but to steal back the secrets of the State of Jin and present them to the Emperor of the State of Yanhuang."
Guan Jiao couldn't help but make excuses.
"You shameless scoundrels!"
Seeing that these people had even lost their scholarly integrity, Zhang Dong and the others were furious, but out of consideration for their classmates, he restrained his impulse to take action.
Although Zhang Dong was reluctant to do it, Xun Mu and the others' eyes flashed with killing intent, their inner energy surged instantly, and they wielded sharp brushes to blast at Zhang Dong.
This scene came so suddenly that many people didn't have time to react. But before Xun Mu could even touch Zhang Dong's body, his body stiffened and then collapsed powerlessly.
As Xun Mu's body fell, behind him, General Xingjian drew his longsword and looked at Zhang Dong, saying:
"Never be merciful to the enemy, or you will harm both yourself and others!"
Swallowing hard, Zhang Dong nodded and then said:
"Thank you for your guidance, General."
After killing Xun Mu, Guan Jiao and another Hanlin scholar also turned pale. They both knew the reputation of General Xingjian, who only had a long sword for his enemies.
"Kill all the surrendered Jin soldiers!"
With a cold voice, General Xingjian directly killed both Hanlin scholars, Guan Jiao and the other Hanlin scholar. At the same time, the Yanhuang soldiers also mercilessly slaughtered all the Jin soldiers present.
In an instant, blood flowed like a river. Even Ye Ru was still shaken by what he saw. The Star Sword General had acted so decisively.
This indirectly proves that General Xingjian and others still harbor resentment towards the Jin army.
After all, the Jin army bears 70% of the responsibility for their deaths.
After the Jin army was completely wiped out, the battle slowly came to an end.
Although the Jin army came with great force, it suffered the most fatal blow. Four Hanlin scholars, one general of Jin, and 30,000 elite soldiers all died here. It has to be said that this time, the Jin army suffered a terrible defeat for Ji Wei.
Afterwards, the Yanhuang Kingdom's army began to clean up the mess, and everyone who had come here felt relieved.
"I was in such a hurry just now that I was unable to pay my respects to the General. Please forgive me."
Ye Ru clasped his hands in a fist salute to General Xingjian and said.
"It's alright. Your skills are better than mine were back then. If I don't kill this person, the Yanhuang Kingdom will probably be in big trouble."
General Xingjian nodded, looking at Ye Ru's youthful face, and said with satisfaction.
“I know that if we let them go back, the people of Jin will definitely know that you have been resurrected. At that time, they will take this opportunity to raise an army to attack you. If we kill these people, it will probably take a long time for them to find out. By then, there will be no way to prove it. We only have two Hanlin scholars and three thousand soldiers here. In terms of both manpower and combat strength, they will not blame us. Am I right?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Ru seemed to suddenly understand and said.
"Smart, much smarter than Zhang Dong and the others."
General Xingjian glanced around, still seemingly angry about how Zhang Dong had almost been killed because of his momentary mercy.
Hearing this, Zhang Dong and the others showed no dissatisfaction, only a wry smile. In front of this elder of the Yanhuang Kingdom, even though they were too old, they dared not be the slightest bit presumptuous.
"General, they've all been buried. How much longer can we live?"
A captain clasped his hands in a fist salute, seemingly hesitant to speak, but then gritted his teeth and said.
"I'm afraid the maximum is only one day."
General Xingjian sighed, but showed no sadness. Instead, he pleaded with Ye Ru:
"There should be their descendants in the team you're leading. Could you stay here for a day and let them reunite?"
Seeing this, Ye Ru and the others exchanged glances, then nodded vigorously:
"Everything will be done according to the General's instructions."
They are merely juniors here, and the other party has given their lives for the Yanhuang Kingdom. Therefore, their request should not be refused, both morally and logically.
