Those who were surrounded were already in a state of panic, and these words immediately destroyed some people's hopes. The most nervous were none other than Han Chunfeng and the others. They all stared at the twitching Xu Huihuang, hoping that he would have some backbone.
One of the Advisors cupped his fists at Xu Huihuang and said, "Manor Head, this is an internal matter of Raincloud Manor. It's not appropriate for our Pure Dream Manor to get involved!"
Another Advisor chimed in, "Manor Head, Manor Head Miao said that we've been trying to sow discord behind the scenes. If we hand them over, we can prove our Pure Dream Manor's innocence!"
The Advisor who suggested deploying troops at Raincloud Manor's borders to intimidate Miao Yi also cupped his fists and said, "Manor Head, we don't even know the ins and outs of this matter. Is there really a need for this? This muddy water? "
A group of deacons followed suit and suggested that irrelevant people should be sent out.
Xu Huihuang knew what his subordinates were trying to do. They were trying to give him a way out, but the key was … how were they going to send him out? The enemy had sent over two hundred cultivators at once, but how many men did the Pure Dream Manor have? Everyone was squeezed together. How were they going to deliver it? Can you send someone out just by talking?
Hearing that this group of people insisted on sending them out, how could Han Chunfeng just sit and wait for death? As expected, he threatened them both openly and covertly. He cupped his fists and said, "Manor Head Xu, please give us a way out. Otherwise, we would rather die than submit!"
Unexpectedly, one of the servants from Mulberry Cloud Manor stepped forward and said, "Brother Han, since your Manor Head is here, you should return. Don't drag us down with you."
They didn't want to suffer the same fate as Han Chunfeng. As soon as Miao Yi's forces retreated, they would immediately leave Pure Dream Manor and head for Suppressing Tenth Hall to hide. They realized that it wasn't safe to stay in Pure Dream Manor either. If Miao Yi could bring his men here, then there was a high chance that their own Manor Head, Sikong Wuwei, would come here as well.
When he said this, Han Chunfeng and the others were shocked. He had only brought a few dozen people with him, and most of the people here were from Mulberry Cloud Manor. If these people were to stand on Xu Huihuang's side, they would not have the courage to fight to the death. What do you mean? Do you want to burn the bridge after crossing it? "
Tong Cheng suddenly brandished his spear and shouted, "Brothers, listen up! Let's cooperate with Manor Head Xu and chase these people out! "
The two groups of people from Mulberry Cloud Manor understood Advisor Tong's intentions. They immediately brandished their weapons and pointed them at Han Chunfeng and the others from Raincloud Manor. Meanwhile, Raincloud Manor's forces also raised their weapons in response. Both sides shouted at each other, but no one dared to make a move!
Xu Huihuang shot a glance at Tong Cheng, who was shouting loudly. He wasn't an idiot. Since he had already decided to hand these people over to Miao Yi, why would he have to risk his life and get involved in this fight? Previously, they were worried about the number of people on their side. Now that they had split up … he immediately said, "I'll go and discuss this with Manor Head Miao."
She secretly transmitted her voice over to her two handmaidens, and they rode out together. When they arrived before Miao Yi, she cupped her fists and said in a low voice, "Manor Head Miao, I have no intention of getting involved in the matters between you two. However, as you can see, it's not that I don't want to hand him over to you. It's just that they have the advantage in numbers and refuse to leave. As long as you let my men out, you can do whatever you want with the rest of them. It's none of my business. "
Miao Yi was a little speechless. What are you doing with your own troops? However, when he thought about how all the cultivators here behaved like this, he felt that it was understandable. He nodded at Mu Tailai.
Mu Tailai waved his hand and opened up a path for them.
Standing next to Miao Yi, Xu Huihuang immediately shouted, "Men of Pure Dream Manor, heed my command. All of you, come out!"
Miao Yi looked at him speechlessly. 'How can someone like this become a Manor Head? He's probably never fought in a battle before. Does he think everyone else is an idiot? 'Brother, you're saying this because you don't want your men to leave alive, aren't you?'
The men of Pure Dream Manor were naturally overjoyed. 'There's nothing for us to do anymore. Go do whatever you want. We'll leave first. Once this is over, we'll live our lives as usual. One by one, the cultivators pulled their handmaidens up onto their mounts. They were about to leave this troublesome place.
Tong Cheng and Han Chunfeng were shocked when they saw this. 'That damned Xu Huihuang wants to leave us behind!' The two of them shouted in unison, "You're not allowed to leave!"
Their subordinates weren't idiots either. As soon as they saw the signal from the two men, they immediately intercepted the men of Pure Dream Manor who were about to leave and surrounded them instead. The men of Pure Dream Manor who were about to leave were shocked.
The two sides who had been at each other's throats earlier had instantly joined forces. They were able to form a tacit agreement without any discussion. Their courage and reaction speed were a far cry from when they were ordered to attack Tranquil Sun Manor and run away. Miao Yi didn't know what to say. 'If they had the courage to fight, why did they have to run away and cause such a ruckus? Would it be more honorable to die here? What a bunch of idiots!'
Seeing this, Xu Huihuang was immediately enraged. He pointed down and bellowed, "What are you traitors trying to do? How dare you surround the men of my Pure Dream Manor? Get out of my way! "
Down below, Han Chunfeng shouted, "Manor Head Xu, if we're leaving, we'll leave together. Otherwise, none of us will leave!"
"How dare you threaten me! I think you must be tired of living! "Xu Huihuang pointed down angrily. Now that he was out of danger, he was confident in his words!
On the other hand, his subordinates looked at him in panic. 'Manor Head, please don't do anything rash!'
Beside him, Miao Yi's eyes flickered. He didn't expect such a strange thing to happen either. As expected, strange people were born in strange places. He turned to Xu Huihuang and said, "Manor Head Xu, now you know that I'm not lying. You should believe that these people are all traitors, right?"
"As expected, they are all reckless traitors!" Xu Huihuang nodded angrily. However, he thought to himself, 'If you hadn't sent your troops to surround us, how could this have happened?'
Miao Yi asked, confused, "Has Manor Head Xu informed Suppressing Tenth Hall about this matter?"
"No!" Xu Huihuang immediately denied it. When he saw Miao Yi staring at him with raised brows, he felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly added, "I wanted to inform you, but your men suddenly arrived. I didn't have the time to do so. Take a look if you don't believe me!" He immediately took out the unfinished jade archive and showed it to Miao Yi.
Miao Yi accepted it and looked at it, then relaxed. He crushed it in his hand as if he were crushing his own belongings. He asked, "I intend to forcefully attack and rescue your subordinates. What do you think, Manor Head Xu?"
Xu Huihuang looked to his left and right, thinking, 'Do I even have a choice? You can do whatever you want, but I'm afraid my subordinates are going to suffer … 'Then, he thought,' At least I'll be fine. Even if I lose my old subordinates, I'll still have new ones. I won't lose anything! ' He gritted his teeth and nodded. "Very well!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Manor Head Xu to write a report to the Hall Master and report the situation here," Miao Yi said.
Xu Huihuang was suspicious. 'Are you serious? Aren't you afraid that I'll report you?' He then said meaningfully, "The situation is complicated! How should I write it? "
"It's quite complicated!" Miao Yi admitted. As for how complicated it was, it was fine as long as everyone was aware of it. There was no need to point it out. Miao Yi then said, "Just say that Tranquil Sun Manor has ulterior motives and incited a rebellion in Thousand Lake Manor, Raincloud Manor, and Mulberry Cloud Manor. Some of the rebels then escaped here and surrounded your men. Thus, Manor Head Xu sent me here to clean up the mess!"
'Rebellion? Even if I were to report this, someone would have to believe me! ' To Suppressing Tenth Hall, a rebellion was already a legend! Xu Huihuang laughed dryly. "Very well! Once I've dealt with the current situation, I'll immediately report it! "
"There's no harm in writing it now! That way, I can give my subordinates an explanation! "
"But I don't have the spirit eagle with me right now. I can't report it."
"Manor Head Xu, you worry too much. When I was at Traversing Moon Palace, I was also someone who often went to war. How could I not keep in touch with them? I have the spirit eagle with me, and I'm willing to report it on Manor Head Xu's behalf!"
"Haha, very well!" Xu Huihuang immediately wrote down the report. However, Miao Yi soon got hold of it and checked it first. After confirming that there were no mistakes, Miao Yi passed it on to his subordinates and sent it to Suppressing Tenth Hall!
At the same time, Miao Yi also wrote down two separate reports and sent them to Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei. He told them to report the same thing and push all the blame onto that damned Chang Zijiu. As for whether the higher-ups would believe him or not, that was up to them. There was no harm in having a few more excuses.
Miao Yi turned around and whispered a few more words to Xu Huihuang. Xu Huihuang nodded, then turned to his subordinates and shouted, "Troops of Pure Dream Manor, heed my command! Hold them off for half a minute. You only need to hold them off for half a minute! I've already asked Manor Head Miao's Raincloud Manor troops to rescue you all. All you need to do is hold them off for half a minute. Then, together with Raincloud Manor's troops, we'll be able to annihilate these rebels in half a minute! "
As soon as Miao Yi said this, the troops of Pure Dream Manor immediately panicked. 'Are we really going to fight?
Attack from both sides? ' The 'rebels' were even more terrified!
With a wave of his hand, Miao Yi shouted, "Charge!"
The troops from all four sides immediately tightened their encirclement once more. The troops of Pure Dream Manor were also in the middle of the encirclement, ready to fight to the death. The 'rebels' who were trapped in the middle were instantly thrown off balance. The real battle was about to begin, and they were under unprecedented pressure. They were completely panicking!
They didn't want to fight at all. If they had the courage, they wouldn't have fled in the face of battle!
The troops who were attacking were just as nervous as the rest.
"I surrender! I surrender! "One of the 'rebels' couldn't bear the pressure and shouted out first.
"We surrender! We surrender … "Cries of surrender immediately rang out one after another. One by one, the rebels dismounted their mounts and threw down their weapons.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Han Chunfeng, Tong Cheng, and the rest of the Advisors also threw down their weapons and slowly dismounted.
In the blink of an eye, all of the 'rebels' from the two Manors, as well as the fleeing enemies of Tranquil Sun Manor, dismounted and surrendered!
Xu Huihuang was stunned. 'It's settled just like that?' The troops of Pure Dream Manor immediately cheered in joy and shouted, "Manor Head is wise!"
"Tie them all up!" Miao Yi changed his order.
Not long after, all two hundred of them were brought to the plaza outside of Pure Dream Manor's conference hall. The bound ones were forced to kneel on the ground, and no one knew what kind of punishment awaited them!
Chen Fei stepped forward and reported, "Manor Head! They have all been detained! "
Miao Yi was chatting happily with Xu Huihuang on the steps leading to the conference hall. When they heard the report, the two of them walked down together.
Xu Huihuang had regained his Manor Head aura. After a short conversation, he realized that Miao Yi wasn't a difficult person to talk to. He accompanied Miao Yi to Han Chunfeng, who pointed at him and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed myself, Brother Xu. One of our three Advisors has actually become a rebel!"
"Sigh!" Xu Huihuang looked at Han Chunfeng and sighed, as if he was feeling sorry for Miao Yi. He then asked, "Brother Miao, how do you plan to deal with these people?"
