The crown prince is dead?
Li Guangyuan could not believe his ears. After being stunned for a moment, he grabbed onto the soldier's clothes and growled: "What did you just say? Who... Who died? "
"The crown prince is dead! General! The crown prince is dead! "
The soldier roared at the top of his lungs.
This roar shocked all the soldiers present!
Everyone stared blankly at the soldier, their faces filled with shock …
The two countries were at war, and the crown prince of one country had died! What kind of shock was this? If word of this got out, what kind of panic would it cause?
Logically speaking, if the crown prince was captured by the enemy, he should be treated as a hostage. However, the Jiang Country had let the crown prince die. What was going on? What did this mean? This probably meant that the Jiang Country no longer needed the crown prince as a hostage, right?
The soldiers panicked. They looked at each other in dismay, and their eyes began to fill with confusion. The successive defeats and grievous news had completely destroyed their self-confidence.
They even began to doubt whether they could defeat the Jiang Country. Now that the city had been occupied, the Jiang Country was like a tiger, slowly gnawing at the land of the Han Country. However, the Han Country did not do anything, and instead expelled the fleeing citizens of the Han Country.
"You must be lying to me! How could the crown prince die for no reason? "
Li Guangyuan naturally did not believe it, he pushed the soldier away and roared in a low voice: "Don't believe me, this is just a rumor, Jiang Guo must have deliberately asked him to spread this rumor, intending to disturb the morale of the army!"
"General, how could this subordinate dare to do this? Everything this subordinate has said is true. The people of Jiang have already sent people to bring the crown prince's body back. I believe that the crown prince's body will be sent back soon … "
"Drag him down and behead him!" "Kill him!"
Li Guangyuan did not believe it at all. Hearing the soldier's voice, it was more like an enraged lion, suddenly roaring.
A few Spirit Emperor s immediately stepped forward, raised their swords and were about to slash.
But at this moment, the soldiers exhaled again.
"What's that?"
"There... General! Look over there! "
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a group of people walking over from the snowstorm.
These people were all wearing gray armor, which was especially conspicuous in the wind and snow. At a glance, there were about thirty of them, and in the middle of the group was a huge wooden coffin. They carried the coffin over quickly, and stopped about a hundred meters away from the group, then unloaded the coffin.
"It's the people of Jiang Country!"
A soldier roared, and the crowd immediately burst into an uproar. They immediately surrounded the twenty-odd people.
These people of Jiang Country were naturally frightened. They hurriedly retreated and shouted, "Stop, don't fight, we are only here to send someone off!"
"Give it away? Who are you giving it to? "
"Take them down first!!"
The soldiers of the Frigid State shouted, their faces filled with anger.
Seeing that the situation was critical, the soldiers did not hesitate and immediately lifted the lid of the coffin.
Clang.
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on the coffin.
There was a cold corpse lying inside. It was the crown prince, Jiu Li.
His soul had long since dissipated, and there was a large hole in his chest. One could see his frozen internal organs, and upon closer inspection, one could see that all the blood vessels and Qi Meridian in his body had been shattered, as though they had suffered a violent impact from the profound strength.
Li Guangyuan pushed the soldiers away and rushed to the side of the coffin. When he saw the person inside, he was immediately stunned.
Not only him, but the other soldiers were also stunned.
When the soldiers of the Jiang Country saw this, how could they not seize this opportunity? Everyone simultaneously fled in the direction of Jiang Country.
"Capture them!"
Li Guangyuan reacted and immediately roared.
The experts of the Spirit Emperor immediately took action. With a flash, more than twenty soldiers of the Jiang Country were captured.
The soldiers of the Jiang Country were obviously frightened, all of them were trembling as they looked at Li Guangyuan who was walking over in fear.
"How did the crown prince die?"
Li Guangyuan walked over, grabbed a soldier of the Jiang Country, and roared angrily.
"He …" He committed suicide … "
"Impossible!"
"Your crown prince …" Yes. He did indeed commit suicide. He … He was afraid that we would use him as a hostage to threaten your Han State … So … So he committed suicide … We were ordered by the marshal to specially … "We specially returned his corpse to you …"
The soldier was so scared that he stuttered as he spoke.
However, the more Li Guangyuan listened, the angrier he became, the more irritable he became.
"Kill!" Kill them all! "Kill them all!"
He growled. At this moment, he had already lost his rationality as a general.
"Wait!"
At this moment, a low voice came out.
Li Guangyuan looked towards the direction of the voice, only to see Su Yun walking over.
"What are you doing? What? Could it be that you still want to interfere?
"Li Guangyuan clenched his fists and said.
"When the two armies fight, don't you know the rules? They are only here to return the crown prince's corpse. Even if you kill them, it will be useless! Furthermore, there is a lot of information in their mouths. Isn't it a pity to kill them? "
Su Yun said indifferently.
"What do you want to do?" Li Guangyuan said angrily.
Su Yun did not care about him, and directly grabbed the soldier and asked: "Let me ask you, was it your marshal who dealt with your crown prince's corpse?"
"This... I don't know about this, but Crown Prince Jianshe did indeed die in the marshal's barracks. He shattered all of his Qi Meridian, and even his soul was destroyed … When we discovered him, he was already dead.
"In that case, the crown prince's things are most likely in the hands of your marshal."
Su Yun rubbed his chin and started to think.
The man did not say anything.
But Li Guangyuan already knew what Su Yun was asking.
However, he did not stop him. Instead, he sneered: "Most likely, if you want to obtain the Dragon Abyss Bead, I think you should go find the people of Jiang!"
Su Yun glanced at him, and without saying a word, he immediately turned and flew into the sky.
Li Guangyuan did not stop him in the slightest, and allowed him to leave. After Su Yun left, he turned his head and said to the soldiers beside him: "Capture all of these Jiang people, in addition, the news of the crown prince's death is temporarily not allowed to be revealed, wait for me to report to His Majesty before making a decision!"
"Yes, General."
"Bring the crown prince's body back to the city."
Li Guangyuan said in a hoarse voice.
He believed that the mood of all the soldiers present would not be any more complicated or sour than his. The death of the crown prince seemed to be an indication of something. Not only did he not dare to believe it, he could not believe it either.
… ….
… ….
After leaving the valley, Su Yun did not go far, but lingered at the edge of the valley.
Although Su Yun did not like the dragon, his dedication was still admirable. However, how serious would the consequences of his death be? The entire Han State would definitely be shocked, and the king of the Han State would also fight to the death with the Jiang State. At that time, the Jiang Han world would truly be in chaos.
After wandering around for a while, Su Yun met a few rogue cultivators from Ice City. After asking about the route of the Jiang Country, he set off.
Right now, it was better to first investigate the whereabouts of the Dragon Abyss Pearl. Before the battle began, he had to lock onto the location, otherwise, once the battle broke out and the situation became chaotic, it would be difficult to retrieve the parts.
Stepping on the flying sword, Su Yun flew towards the Jiang Country.
However, compared to the two countries, Su Yun clearly preferred the climate of the Jiang Country. Although there were many rivers and seas here, the temperature was not as cold as the Han State.
After leaping over the ice city, over several tall mountains, and walking through two vast plains, Su Yun finally arrived at the border city of the Jiang Country: Yang City.
The city was located in a valley, surrounded by high mountains and lofty ridges, and these mountains were all covered with enchantments and formations. The entire city was like a fortress, difficult to break through. One must know that the influence of the terrain on the Spirit Cultivator war was already very small, only the strength of the enchantment and the power of the Array Seal could determine the outcome of a siege battle.
Only the vanguard troops of the Jiang Country were stationed in Bingcheng, while the majority of their troops were gathered in Yang City.
Before Su Yun even reached the city, he could already smell the terrifying profound strength that was overflowing from the city.
The soldiers did not train, they just sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated. From afar, one could see soldiers sitting cross-legged all over the mountains and plains, densely packed everywhere.
Su Yun rummaged through the space bag and found the Thousand Transformation Bone Face that he had not used for a long time. He transformed into a soldier of the Jiang Country, and then used the Imperial Battle Robe to conceal his Qi and change his cultivation.
The soldier standing guard only glanced at him, but did not say a word, much less stop him.
Su Yun continued on his way.
"Hey, which battalion are you from? Don't you know that it's time to cultivate? Hurry up and meditate for me! "
An officer saw Su Yun who was walking into the city, and was immediately angered, and shouted loudly.
"Sir, I am here to deliver the corpse of the Crown Prince of the Han State. I have to go back and report to the Marshal." Su Yun said. The person he had transformed into was one of the twenty soldiers of the Jiang Country.
Hearing that, the officer looked at Su Yun carefully, and exclaimed: "Yo, so it's you, brat. What? You're back? Ai, that's not right. Didn't you have more than twenty brothers who went with you? Why are you the only one back? "
"I'll tell you about this after I report to the Marshal."
Su Yun was too lazy to argue with this talkative officer. After saying that, he immediately ran into the city.
However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly realized that he didn't know the way at all, so he pulled the officer back.
"Damn it, what are you doing?"
"Sir, I'm a little nervous. Why don't you come with me to see the Marshal?"
"Look at your dishes!" "Forget it, follow me."
The officer snorted and quickly walked forward.
With the officer leading the way, Su Yun's journey was smooth and helpless, straight into the city. After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the two of them finally arrived at the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city.
As the officer approached the City Lord's Mansion, he immediately called out.
"Military report!" Urgent report! We have an urgent report to report to Lord Marshal! "
The guard at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion glanced at the two of them and said indifferently, "Wait."
With that, he entered the mansion.
