Qin Yu and Xiao Hei feel relaxed so they do not fight as desperately as before. The 2 brothers, one man and one eagle, travel through the clouds and mist, heading straight for the princely mansion in Yan City. However, at this moment, 2 terrifying figures have come to the town of Xiyang.
With his black robe fluttering, Xiang Yang stands in midair. His eyes overlook the entire town of Xiyang as if they can pierce through space. On one side, Wu De's cyan robe flutters in the wind.
Xiang Yang basically does not hide his power. With Xiang Yang as the center, his enormous aura spreads out completely, covering the entire town of Xiyang. Almost everyone in the town of Xiyang can feel that oppressive feeling. In Qin De's residence in the town of Xiyang,
Creak — —
Qin De pushes open the door of his room and goes straight into the courtyard. He raises his head to look at the sky, a faint calm smile on the corners of his mouth.
"Oh? Xiang Yang has finally come. " Qin De says in a low voice. At the same time, Xu Yuan also walks out of his room. He also feels that terrifying oppressive feeling. As soon as he raises his head, he sees the 2 people standing in midair.
"Your Highness, they are …" Xu Yuan is shocked.
Qin De turns to look at Xu Yuan and says: "Xu Yuan, do you still remember the brocade pouch I gave you at that time? In a moment, you'll go back and open it. Follow the steps I laid down in the brocade pouch. "
"Little brat of the Qin clan, quickly come to see me!"
A thunderous voice shakes the entire town of Xiyang. The terrifying power contained in that voice makes all the soldiers in the town of Xiyang turn pale. Some of the weaker ones even pass out directly.
"Remember, go back and open the brocade pouch!" Qin De says solemnly to Xu Yuan. Xu Yuan is also an extremely intelligent person. Seeing Qin De's expression, he can also guess something. But he still says with a nod: "Don't worry, Your Highness. I definitely won't let you down!"
A faint smile appears on Qin De's face. Afterwards, a flying sword appears under his feet.
Standing on the flying sword, Qin De soars into the sky.
Qin De flies on the flying sword. In a short while, he sees Xiang Yang standing in midair. Xiang Yang's black hair is wantonly fluttering in the wind. His black robe is also fluttering. However, his ice-cold eyes, which seem to be able to see through people's hearts, are the most frightening.
"Xiang Yang is indeed the most outstanding disciple of the Xiang clan."
Qin De, on the contrary, has a feeling of admiration for Xiang Yang in his heart. Back then, the Conqueror of Western Chu was extremely overbearing. When he fought for hegemony, he offended many forces. Later on, the Hegemon King of Western Chu died and the Xiang clan became the target of public criticism. Fortunately, the young Xiang Yang appeared out of nowhere and befriended those far away and attacked those near. In the end, they split the world with the other two forces.
Later on, Xiang Yang managed the Chu Dynasty for several decades, making it the most powerful of the three dynasties. Xiang Yang was not only good at governing a country, but it was also rumored that his talent in martial arts was not inferior to his father, Xiang Yu. In the end, he still managed to step into the realm of Jin Dan even though he was distracted from governing the country.
Xiang Yu was powerful and domineering, but he was not benevolent enough. And this Xiang Yang was almost perfect. He was benevolent, ruthless, honorable, and murderous in the dark. All kinds of methods were at his fingertips. He was definitely a natural emperor.
"Qin De greets senior Xiang Yang." Qin De slightly folds his hands smilingly and says in a manner that is neither humble nor overbearing.
Xiang Yang takes a look at Qin De. Just by seeing that Qin De is not nervous in the slightest when meeting him, he can see the gap between him and his grandson Xiang Guang. But no matter what, Xiang Yang is a member of the Xiang clan. A faint smile appears on the corners of Xiang Yang's mouth.
"Qin De!" Xiang Yang looks carefully at Qin De then says smilingly: "You're really something. No wonder you were able to occupy more than half of the Chu Dynasty's territory in such a short time. I, Xiang Yang, also admire you very much. But … I, Xiang Yang, am a member of the Xiang clan. You're a smart person so you should be able to guess why I've come here, right? "
Qin De glances at Xiang Yang and Wu De. When he sees Wu De, his eyes flash with fierceness.
"Wu De." He immediately remembers the scene where his son, Qin Yu, and Wu Xing died together. Wu De looks at him with a hint of killing intent in his eyes. He has never forgotten his younger martial brother's death.
Xiang Yang's voice becomes serious: "Qin De, could it be you didn't hear what I asked?"
Qin De looks at Xiang Yang and says: "Senior Xiang Yang, I really don't know what you've come here with such great fanfare for." He pretends to know nothing.
Xiang Yang slightly frowns. The cold light in his eyes immediately rises: "Oh, Qin De, you're so smart. You've also guessed it? Then I'll make it clear. Now I want your Qin clan's army to retreat. This way, the 3 Eastern region counties will still belong to your Qin clan. Your Qin clan will still be my Xiang clan's vassal. The Xiang clan won't even care about the affairs of the 3 Eastern region counties. It can be regarded as a 'state within a state'. What do you think? "
"Retreat? A state within a state? "Qin De suddenly bursts into loud laughter.
His laughter contains endless ridicule. Hearing Qin De's laughter, Xiang Yang's expression does not change. He calmly waits for Qin De's reply. Qin De's expression suddenly freezes. He says to Xiang Yang: "Senior Xiang Yang, I respect you as a wise monarch of the Chu kingdom, but now you're actually dreaming. Now that my Qin clan has occupied 10 of the 12 counties of the Chu kingdom, do you think I'll retreat? Is that even possible? "
Xiang Yang's body rises with coldness: "Qin De, could it be you can't see the situation clearly?"
"Situation? What situation?" Qin De looks at Xiang Yang without backing down. The 2 of them look at each other but Qin De is not the slightest bit afraid. "Moreover, you're only a Xiuzhenist. Do you think you can compare with 2 million troops?"
Instead, Qin De's aura rises.
Xiang Yang suddenly bursts out laughing, saying: "Good, good Qin De. I just want to tell you that I've already reached the Yuanying stage. Even though it's only the early Yuanying stage, I believe you should understand what this means. Think about it carefully. "
"Think about what?" Qin De says without hesitation.
Xiang Yang's expression changes slightly. Even though his self-cultivation is very good, he is still angry. This Qin De is playing dumb with him.
"Even though you've reached the early Jin Dan stage, I can still kill you in a single blow. And that Fengyuzi or whatever, I can also kill him easily. I can even kill the generals and commanders of your Qin clan one by one. Do you understand what I mean? "Xiang Yang says one sentence after another.
Qin De, however, still has a faint calm smile on his face.
"Senior Xiang Yang, Fengyuzi and I are both Jin Dan stage Xiuzhenists so you can easily find us with your holy sense. But do you know the other generals of my Qin clan? Even if they're right in front of you, you still won't be able to tell whether they're my Qin clan's generals or not. "Qin De stares at Xiang Yang and says.
When a Xiuzhenist uses his holy sense to search for someone, he at least knows that person's aura. Otherwise, how can he be sure whether he's their general or not?
"In the army, the commander-in-chief's tent is the same as the other soldiers' tents. You simply won't be able to find out who's the general. How can you kill my Qin clan's generals?" Qin De stares at Xiang Yang and says word by word.
"Also, now 600,000 troops from the 2 Northern region counties have already attacked Zhen Yang County. Of your Xiang clan's 200,000 troops, 100,000 have already surrendered. The other 100,000 are just struggling at death's door. The Black Water army and the Mu clan's 600,000 troops have almost occupied the entire Shang Que County. "Qin De tells him the news he has just received.
Xiang Yang's face changes color.
He already knew that Zhen Yang County's 200,000 troops would definitely be unable to resist the enemy's 600,000 troops, but he did not expect 100,000 troops to surrender. But thinking about it, this is also normal. Anyone who is not an idiot will be able to see that the Xiang clan is already on its last legs. It will not be difficult for it to lure the enemy into surrendering by offering them money and power.
"My Qin clan has 600,000 troops each in Shang Que County in the south and Zhen Yang County in the north. There are even some troops from your Xiang clan that have surrendered. On top of that, there are nearly 400,000 troops in Lei Xue County. Besieged from 3 sides, your Xiang clan only has Ba Chu County. As long as my Qin clan gives the order, we'll definitely be able to attack your Ba Chu County directly within a day regardless of everything else. "Qin De says confidently.
Besieged from 3 sides, the Xiang clan only has 1 county left so it has to defend all 3 sides. After the battles in Zhen Yang County, Shang Que County and Lei Xue County, the Xiang clan only has 500,000 to 600,000 troops left. Moreover, if it has to defend all 3 sides, how can such a small number of troops be able to resist?
There is basically no need for Qin De to say anything more. Xiang Yang naturally understands the situation.
Even though he is a Xiuzhenist, if a battle breaks out between 2 million troops, even if he is formidable, how can he possibly stop them? He can kill several people with one flying sword. It will take Xiang Yang a very long time to kill just 100,000 troops.
"Qin De, even now you still don't understand what I mean." Xiang Yang says smilingly.
"Oh, I'd like to hear the details." Qin De says with an indifferent smile.
Xiang Yang says: "You're the East Vanquishing Prince, the head of the Qin clan. If I kill you, I believe the Qin clan will definitely fall into chaos."
Qin De says smilingly: "Let me tell you something. I've already made preparations. Once I die, the Qin clan will have a new head. At the same time, the Qin clan's army will attack from 3 sides at all costs and flatten the Xiang clan!"
Xiang Yang's eyes flash with coldness.
Besieged from 3 sides. If 2 million troops really start fighting, no matter how strong Xiang Yang is, he will not be able to stop countless soldiers from killing each other. Even though the soldiers will not be able to kill Xiang Yang, Xiang Yang will not be able to stop so many soldiers either.
After all, there are too many people.
The destruction of the Xiang clan is the last thing Xiang Yang wants to see.
"But … if I can live, I also want to live. Therefore, I can order my troops not to attack Ba Chu County. You must also not harm a single member of the Qin clan. What do you think? If you attack, the armies in Lei Xue County, Shang Que County and Zhen Yang County will directly rush into Ba Chu County from 3 sides! "Qin De says smilingly.
Xiang Yang stares at him for a long time then says slowly with a nod: "Fine. Remember what you said. You must not attack Ba Chu County. Otherwise, I'll destroy your entire Qin clan by myself!"
Xiang Yang's black robe flutters in the wind. His body immediately pierces through the air and flies away. Wu De gives him a look then also flies away on his sword.
Qin De watches Xiang Yang leave. He frowns deeply: "Things have become a bit complicated. I didn't expect this Xiang Yang to have reached the early stage of Yuanying. Originally I thought this genius of the Xiang clan would be at most at the late stage of Jin Dan. If that was the case, I would still have a way to deal with him. But in the early stage of Yuanying … even if my Qin clan obtains the world, if Xiang Yang wants to kill, he can also kill my entire clan. "
In midair, Qin De thinks for a long time but fails to come up with a solution. Xiang Yang has reached the early stage of Yuanying so Qin De's plan cannot be carried out successfully.
*****
Qin Yu and Xiao Hei are travelling back and forth in the clouds. At the moment, Qin Yu's mood is somewhat agitated.
"Father and the others probably still think I'm dead." When Qin Yu thinks of this, he wants to see his father even more. Suddenly, Qin Yu sees the outline of Yan Capital below. He immediately says to Xiao Hei: "Xiao Hei, we've reached the princely mansion. Hurry up!"
Qin Yu rushes down towards the princely mansion like a beam of light. Xiao Hei also follows Qin Yu.
"Big Brother, I wonder what your father's expression will be like when he sees you." Xiao Hei sends a voice transmission to Qin Yu. Qin Yu can't help but smile. With Qin Yu's speed, he arrives in the sky above the princely mansion.
He uses his spiritual awareness to scan the entire princely mansion.
"Eh? Big Brother, Second Brother and Father are not here. "Qin Yu flies directly into one of the princely mansion.
The chief steward of the princely mansion, Chief Steward Li, is taking a leisurely stroll in the princely mansion. The good news from the frontline makes Chief Steward Li very relaxed. Ever since Ge Min's death, the original Deputy Chief Steward Li was promoted to Chief Steward and has much more power.
Suddenly, an afterimage appears in front of Chief Steward Li. Then, the figure becomes clearer.
"Ah!"
Chief Steward Li can't help but scream. He is the chief steward of the princely mansion. How can ordinary things make him so surprised? But the person in front of him now is the supposedly dead Third Prince Qin Yu.
"Third Prince?" Chief Steward Li's face is full of disbelief.
When he was in high school, he grieved for the death of the Third Prince for a long time. Now, a living person actually appeared in front of him. Qin Yu's smile makes Chief Steward Li believe that this is the Third Prince of the princely mansion, Qin Yu.
"Uncle Li, you are now a chief steward. Oh, that's right, where's Royal Father? "Qin Yu asked with a smile.
Chief Steward Li's expression changes. He stares at Qin Yu and says: "Speak, who are you? Don't think that I don't know that Xiantian masters can change their appearance and bones. His Highness personally saw the death of the Third Prince. You actually lied to me? "
"Uncle Li, you don't even recognize me. Do you still remember the last time you sent eight external masters to let me choose my master? Last time, I chose master Zhao Yunxing. "Qin Yu says helplessly.
Although Chief Steward Li wants to believe that the person in front of him is Qin Yu, Qin Yu's death was personally witnessed by his Highness. A dead person cannot come back to life. This is a law.
"Quite a few people know that I sent eight external masters to the Third Prince to choose from. It can't prove your identity." Chief Steward Li's expression is solemn. However, he doesn't call for the bodyguards. Instead, he expects Qin Yu to tell him some secrets.
Qin Yu shakes his head with a smile and says helplessly: "All right. Do you still remember when I was 5 years old, Grandpa Lian was accompanying me and I peed on your face and mouth when I peed? Do you still remember?"
Chief Steward Li is immediately speechless.
Only he and Lian Yan know about that. He has never told anyone about this scandal. Later, when Qin Yu went to Misty Villa, he also didn't tell anyone about it. As for Lian Yan, he wasn't that bored. However, this thing unexpectedly came out of Qin Yu's mouth.
"Also, when I left the princely mansion for Misty Villa, you gave me a wooden horse that you personally carved. Also, when I was 10 years old, when I came to the princely mansion, you … "Qin Yu says smilingly. Chief Steward Li's eyes can't help moistening.
"Third Prince!"
Chief Steward Li hugs Qin Yu tightly. His tears flow down uncontrollably. Chief Steward Li has watched Qin Yu grow up. In the past, when he was the deputy chief steward of the princely mansion, he has a very deep relationship with Qin Yu. Now Qin Yu has said so many things that only he knows about Qin Yu. Moreover, Qin Yu's smile and Qin Yu's manner are all exactly the same as the Third Prince in his mind.
"That's enough, Uncle Li." Qin Yu can also sense his Uncle Li's excitement. "Uncle Li, where's my father? Why aren't big brother and second brother in the mansion? "
Chief Steward Li lets go of Qin Yu and says smilingly at once: "His Highness? A few months ago, His Highness started a war against the Xiang clan! "
"He started a war against the Xiang clan?" Qin Yu is startled.
