Upon hearing that, Uncle Zheng and Liu Yu were stunned.
The two of them turned their heads and stared at Song Qi for a long time before slowly saying, "This … how is this possible?"
"Forgive me for being blunt. Although the two of you are from the Su family, I'm afraid that you don't know much about your family's second young master."
Song Qi said, "Second Young Master Su is not a Qi Refinement Warrior but he has the ability to kill Qi Refinement Warriors. I am a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior but I dare not say that I can win against Second Young Master Su."
Using the inferior-grade spirit stones that Su Zimo gave him, Song Qi had already broken through to Level 8 Qi Condensation in the past ten days.
"Are you a Qi Refinement Warrior?"
"Or a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior?"
"Second young master has the ability to kill Qi Refinement Warriors?"
"Even a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior does not dare to say that he can win against the second young master?"
A series of questions popped up, leaving Uncle Zheng and the other man in a daze. For a moment, they couldn't come to their senses.
They had always thought that Song Qi was just Su Zimo's good friend in the pugilistic world. They had been interacting with him for the past few days, but they did not know that Song Qi was a Qi Refinement Warrior.
Song Qi continued, "I came to the Su Family this time because Second Young Master Su asked me to protect everyone."
These words gave Uncle Zheng and the other man a fright.
Second young master actually had the ability to command a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior!
Uncle Zheng pondered for a while and realized that Song Qi would definitely not spout nonsense.
Suddenly, Uncle Zheng seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed drastically. He suddenly asked, "Can Second Young Master escape the capital after killing the King of Yan?"
Song Qi's eyes dimmed. He smiled bitterly and did not reply.
Uncle Zheng's expression was ugly as if he had aged a lot in an instant.
He had watched Su Zimo grow up, and his feelings for Su Zimo were more like that of a father looking at his own child.
In his heart, although the blood feud of the Su family was important, it was not as important as Su Zimo.
Uncle Zheng closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
Liu Yu said hatefully, "It's all Luo Tianwu's fault. If he didn't tell Second Young Master about what happened 16 years ago, Second Young Master wouldn't have died at all!"
Uncle Zheng frowned and shook his head. "Since the news of the King of Yan's death has not been sent back, the City Lord of Jian An City is not a fool. Will he believe Luo Tianwu's words? Luo Tianwu may not be able to take down Jian An City even if he leads 50,000 troops to attack. "
Liu Yu's eyes were filled with endless fury. He said coldly, "That Luo Tianwu is vicious and merciless. He did not choose to attack by force. Instead, he gathered the innocent villagers from dozens of villages near Jian An City and let them take the lead to attack Jian An City! As long as the villagers retreated, Luo Tianwu would give the order to kill them. These villagers were unarmed and had no way to retreat. They could only escape towards Jian An City. "
"What?!" Uncle Zheng was shocked.
This plan could be said to be extremely vicious.
More than ten thousand villagers were attacking Jian An City. This was a huge force that could not be ignored. As long as the City Lord of Jian An City dared to open the city gates, the villagers would swarm in. Following closely behind would be Luo Tianwu's fifty thousand strong army. Jian An City would definitely be conquered!
If the City Lord of Jian An City refused to open the city gates and chose to be indifferent, the soldiers on the city walls would watch helplessly as the people of the Country of Yan were massacred. There would be a huge panic in the city and it would have a great impact on the soldiers' emotions.
It was very likely that their relatives were among the villagers at the foot of the city.
This great battle had yet to begin but Luo Tianwu already had victory in his grasp!
However, behind the victory, the innocent people of the Country of Yan were sacrificed.
Although the Su family had been living in Ping Yang Town all these years, they had always regarded themselves as people from the Country of Yan. They were born and raised in the Country of Yan. They had an incomparable attachment to their homeland.
Uncle Zheng waved his hands and suddenly said softly, "You can tell the Eldest Young Master that the King of Yan is dead. However, you must not tell him that Luo Tianwu is driving the people of the Country of Yan to attack the city! Given the Eldest Young Master's character, I'm afraid … "
At this moment, the door of a room not far away suddenly opened.
Uncle Zheng and the other two turned back to look.
Su Hong held the door frame and stood at the door. His face was still pale and his body was still weak. However, his eyes gradually regained some vigor.
"Bring me my armor," Su Hong said softly but there was no room for doubt in his tone.
"Eldest Young Master, you …" Liu Yu's eyes were filled with tears and he choked on his words.
The man before him had endured for 16 years for the sake of the Su family's blood feud. When he found out that there was no hope of revenge, he was almost defeated and bedridden, dispirited and listless.
However, when he heard that the people of the Country of Yan were in trouble, he still stood up without hesitation!
Although his body was weak and his injuries had yet to recover, he did not hesitate at all.
That was because he was the son of Su Mu, the Duke of Wuding of the Country of Yan. He was the descendant of the Su family and the Eldest Young Master of the Su family!
"Eldest Young Master, you are unwell. How can you have the strength to fight? Tell us and the 5,000 black armored cavalry will help you fight this battle!" Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said.
Uncle Zheng looked anxious and said, "Second Young Master is most likely dead. Nothing must happen to you, Eldest Young Master. Otherwise, the Su family will have no more descendants!"
There was a flash of deep sorrow in Su Hong's eyes.
He had carefully concealed the feud of the Su family as he did not want to implicate his younger brother. However, he did not expect that he would still end up in such a state.
"You don't understand."
Su Hong suppressed the sorrow in his heart and shook his head. "If Zimo really killed the King of Yan, all the more I should go and stop Luo Tianwu. This is because if the King of Yan dies and Jian An City falls, Zimo will definitely become a sinner of the Country of Yan. He will be cursed for eternity. How can I, Su Hong, bear that? "
"But …" Uncle Zheng and Liu Yu wanted to persuade him again but Su Hong interrupted them.
"Father once swore that he would protect the people of the Country of Yan for the rest of his life. He would let the people have a place to settle down and avoid the suffering of war. Now that the people of the Country of Yan are in trouble, I, Su Hong, will not hide here even if I have to die on the battlefield! "
Su Hong took a deep breath and his eyes shone with a bright light. He said in a deep voice, "Those who invade the borders of the Country of Yan must be killed! Those who kill the people of the Country of Yan must be killed! "
At this moment, Uncle Zheng seemed to see Su Mu's figure in Su Hong.
In a trance, he seemed to have returned to more than 20 years ago when he followed Su Mu on the battlefield and advanced courageously!
The familiar words, the familiar scene, the same boldness, the same sharpness and fearlessness!
Su Hong raised his voice. "Where are the black armored cavalry?"
Unknowingly, 5,000 black armored cavalry had already gathered outside. Everyone's eyes were burning like fire and they exuded endless fighting spirit.
In an instant, Uncle Zheng's tears streamed down his face. He knelt on one knee and said loudly, "Zheng Zhe is willing to follow the general to kill the enemies and protect the Country of Yan and our people! “
All 5,000 black armored cavalry dismounted from their horses and knelt on one knee. Their movements were as orderly as one as they shouted, "We are willing to follow the general to kill the enemies and protect the Country of Yan and our people!"
Su Hong clenched his fists and said loudly, "Prepare the horses. Follow me to battle and restore the glory of the black armored cavalry!"
When Song Qi saw this scene, he was suddenly filled with endless admiration for the man in front of him.
As a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior, he could look down on all mortals. But at this moment, at this moment, Song Qi was impressed by a mortal.
He experienced the passion that he had never had before.
He experienced the hatred for his country that he had never had before.
He experienced the feelings of loving his people and the land under his feet.
At this moment, Su Hong's body trembled and he suddenly turned around with his back facing everyone. He stretched out his palm and covered his mouth for a moment. Then, he put down his palm without a trace. His expression was normal.
Song Qi could see clearly that the pool of fresh blood in Su Hong's palm was glaring!
Although Su Hong's body was weak, he was fine and would not cough up blood.
Song Qi was very clear that such a situation would only occur when a person's heart was in extreme pain and had nowhere to vent it.
When the news of Su Zimo's death came, although Su Hong did not express anything, he chose to hide such grief deeply.
If Song Qi was previously hired by Su Zimo to protect the Su Family, Su Zimo would be the one hiring Song Qi.
But at this moment, Song Qi wanted to protect this person in front of him from the bottom of his heart!
Such a person should not die.
