Zhuge Qi took the Jade Slips and overturned all of their previous plans. This time … they were really going to surrender.
With their dignity, ideals, and beliefs, they were going to surrender together!
However, this was not the end. This was definitely not the end. This was just the beginning. Sooner or later, they would get back everything they had lost.
Zhuge Qi comforted himself.
In fact, the entire process took less than a day. When the order to surrender was issued, the entire Stone City was in an uproar.
The threshold of the Ancestral Hall was almost broken. Soldiers swarmed into the Hunter's Tavern. Today, the wine was free, just like when they won a battle.
However, this time, they did not win. They were going to surrender!
The only reason that could convince them was that they were not surrendering to the Great Five Alliance. They were surrendering to the White Tiger Legion.
In fact, in the military order, this was not a surrender. They were being incorporated into the White Tiger Legion!
However, they were like defeated roosters. They lowered their heads and were covered in wounds. Their pride was gone. Their dignity was gone. Their beliefs and ideals were all gone.
Everyone knew that from now on, Stone City would no longer exist, because their beliefs were already dead. They could only be like before, muddle-headed. Day after day, day after day, day after day.
On the day that Lu Ran arrived at Stone City, he found that it was unusually calm.
The army of three hundred thousand stood in neat rows. It was so calm that he could hear their heavy breathing.
There was no chaos. No one resisted because military orders were obeyed. This was a quality that they had formed when they joined Stone City's army.
However, Lu Ran felt that this army was like an old man who had reached the end of the road.
Lu Ran did not understand why Stone City would suddenly surrender. He did not understand why Lu Xiufu had ordered him to contact the Great Five Alliance to discuss Stone City's surrender.
The legion made concessions. All the strongholds on the mountain were withdrawn. This ensured the safety of Stone City's three hundred thousand soldiers.
Similarly, Stone City belonged to the Great Five Alliance.
This huge concession allowed Stone City's army to be fully incorporated into the White Tiger Legion. The Great Five Alliance did not bargain with the legion.
Shi Cheng's surrender was great news for the Great Five Alliance. After confronting Shi Cheng for so long, they knew that Shi Cheng wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
However, they were afraid that one day, Stone City would suddenly start a war with them. They had already experienced Stone City's fighting strength.
Although the old freaks from outside the mountains didn't really care, they knew that this army was the best in the entire human race.
Compared to them, his side was really a motley crew!
However, the Great Five Alliance made a request, especially the experts from the Western Alliance. They strongly requested that Stone City hand over Lee Chao-young!
This was also the unanimous request of the Five Alliances. If they did not hand over Lee Chao-young, they would not accept the army's conditions.
No matter how hard Lu Ran tried, the Great Five Alliance refused to budge.
It could be said that other than Ye Tianze, the person that the Great Five Alliance wanted to kill the most was Lee Chao-young. Now that Ye Tianze was dead, Lee Chao-young definitely couldn't leave unscathed.
They hated and feared Lee Chao-young.
It could even be said that they feared her more than they hated her. How could they get rid of their fear? One day, they would trample her under their feet and destroy her dignity ten thousand times!
If she went to the legion, they would only be more afraid.
Shi Cheng did not hand over Lee Chao-young. It was Lee Chao-young who came out herself. No one knew what she was doing these two days.
Her only request was to stand on the city wall and watch the army leave. She watched as the people she once protected left the city wall.
When she appeared on the city wall, the army that was slowly walking past the city wall suddenly stopped.
The Great Five Alliance's army that was guarding them at the side retreated in fear. They thought that they had fallen into a trap and that the people of Shi Cheng were faking their surrender.
However, they soon realized that was not the case.
The army that was still lifeless suddenly seemed to come back to life. They all looked at the city wall and realized that there was a woman standing on the city wall.
The wind ruffled her long hair and brushed her frail body. She smiled as she watched them leave. It was as if she was telling them, "You can leave. I won't leave. I want to stay here. Someone has to stay here."
Tang Tianjun clenched his fist and suddenly shouted, "Fire Division, turn around! Unsheathe your swords! As long as the purple flame is not extinguished, the fighting spirit will not die! "
"Bang!"
Tens of thousands of swords were unsheathed. They shone with a cold light, but they were as neat as a sword being unsheathed. The murderous aura intimidated the enemy, causing the surrounding soldiers to tremble in fear.
"As long as the purple flame is not extinguished, the fighting spirit will not die!" Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Fire Division held their swords in front of them. They faced the city wall and knelt on one knee.
Their roar resounded through heaven and earth, as if they wanted to shatter the stars in the sky.
"Thunder Division, unsheathe your swords!"
Gao Caiyun turned around and said, "Those who cross the line will be struck by lightning!"
"Bang!"
Another sound, neat and tidy. Tens of thousands of swords were unsheathed.
"Those who cross the line will be struck by lightning!" Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Thunder Division roared in unison.
"Water Division, unsheathe your swords."
Shanhai Fu was already sobbing. In the past, she was most afraid of Lee Chao-young. But this time, she was not afraid, "Duckweed in the water, a green leaf, rushing for thousands of miles, just for the sea!"
"Wind Division, unsheathe your swords!"
Feng Wu Hui turned around and looked at the city wall, "Wind rise! Clouds move! "
"Mountain Division, unsheathe your swords …"
"Wood Division, unsheathe your swords …"
"Metal Division, unsheathe your swords …"
The soldiers of the seven divisions saluted the woman on the city wall at the same time.
When they turned around and left, there was no one to block the darkness for them.
Lu Ran stared blankly at the scene in front of him. He realized that the people of Stone City did not hate Lee Chao-young at all. They were not afraid of her.
This was the highest honor of the seven divisions. For these soldiers to kneel on one knee and unsheathe their swords, it was all because this woman had gained their recognition and respect!
Lee Chao-young stood on the city wall and stared blankly at the scene. Suddenly, she turned around and closed her eyes. She tried her best to control her emotions. But tears still flowed from her eyelids and rolled down her face.
At this moment, she was truly willing.
But she did not want them to see her cry. Goshawks never shed tears. Goshawks are always cold and emotionless. Goshawks …
She was Stone City's goshawk, not Ye Tianze's goshawk.
A sword appeared in her hand. Ever since she became the general manager of Stone City, she did not need to kill people herself.
With one order, many people's heads would fall to the ground.
She wiped her tears and turned around. She glanced at the people of the Great Five Alliance. Her face was full of ridicule.
It was as if she was saying, do you hate me? Yes, I know you hate me. But my life has always been in my own hands.
If I want to die, I will end it myself. You? You are nothing! Even if I die, I will not let you get what you want. I will make you hate me forever!
She held the sword and slashed at her own neck. She had long been prepared.
She had demonstrated countless times how to cut off her own head with her own hands. Because she knew that this day would come sooner or later.
And when this day came, she would not let those who hated her vent their hatred. This was her dignity, her pride.
