Chapter 453

As the host, Tong Jiyao naturally couldn't leave rudely before the guests were properly settled. He patiently watched as Great General Yu put on a show. When one of the guest rooms was turned into a mess by Yu Junting's servants and maids, a Tong family disciple ran in breathlessly, "Third brother, something bad has happened …"

This' not good 'seemed to be a signal. Two pretty little handmaidens were passing by Tong Jiyao with silk and satin in their hands. As soon as they heard this, they suddenly threw the silk and satin in their hands towards that person, and bent down to entangle Tong Jiyao.

"Crack!"

Tong Jiyao was caught off guard. His legs were immediately broken by the two servant girls who were close to him. Tong Jiyao screamed and fell to the ground. The two little servant girls curled up and moved closer to him. Tong Jiyao smelled a delicate fragrance and felt the back of his head go limp. Then, his head was forcefully twisted to the back of his head. At a very close distance, he saw the soft and tender breasts of the little servant girls. The delicate fragrance became even stronger …

The Tong Family descendant who came to report the news hurriedly tore off the silk on his body. He saw his third brother's eyes wide open, dead on the ground in a strange position. He was stunned for a moment. He saw that General Yu's servants and maids were like a group of fierce tigers, slaughtering the Tong Family members who were completely unprepared. Then, he saw his head fly higher and higher, looking down from above, taking in the tragic scene of the massacre in the small courtyard.

Tong Yun drank the wedding wine in the mountains. He planned to wait for his family to send a letter and wait for General Yu to leave before returning. He also hesitated whether Yu Junting would win or lose. When she returned from White Earth, should he receive her or not? What kind of attitude and standpoint should he treat her? Just as he was pondering, a letter came from home.

Ge Shangdu had fallen!

Tong Yun was shocked and angry. He immediately borrowed five hundred soldiers from the mountain chieftain who had just become his nephew's son-in-law and hurried back to Ge Shangdu.

Of course, five hundred people were not enough for Yu Junting to kill, but Tong Yun had no other choice. Once he lost his foundation, he would be a toothless tiger. At that time, he would be at the mercy of others. He would negotiate first. If that failed, he would flee. With the protection of five hundred people, fleeing would not be a problem. Yu Junting had three thousand soldiers. They had to defend the city and did not dare to pursue. At that time, he would go to the local officials under the Tong family's jurisdiction to think of a countermeasure.

Tong Yun hurried back to Geshang Ferry. The flag on top of the city wall had already been changed to a "Yu" character. Even the boats that were anchored at the ferry dock had changed their "Yu" characters. Tong Yun ordered his troops and sent people to negotiate with Yu Junting. However, he only received two choices from Yu Junting.

One, be completely destroyed.

Two: This official reports that Crouching Bull Ridge can emulate the Yang clan of Shiqian and preserve their wealth.

Tong Yun was very conflicted when he heard that. On one hand, he fantasized about gathering the various local officials under the Tong family to form an army to take back Ge Shangdu and capture that little bitch Yu Junting alive. On the other hand, he was worried that he would lose his only chance at survival. That merciless, temperamental demoness would ruin the Tong family's future.

However, Tong Yun did not struggle for long because the five hundred mountain soldiers he had brought with him started a mutiny that night.

The five hundred soldiers were filled with fighting spirit. They clustered around two people and arrived before him. One of them was short and stout, dark and plump; it was none other than the mountain chieftain to whom his beautiful niece had just married.

The other person wore a black robe. He was half-bald and had a large hooked nose. His eyes were squinted as if he was blinded. He could not even see the road clearly, so he needed someone to support him.

Only when the sun rose did Tong Yun realize that his eyesight was bad. He could not see anything in the day. In the end, it was exactly this half-blind old man who had come to his nephew's stronghold. With a few words, his seemingly loyal son-in-law had defected.

Tong Yun was actually not stupid. Ye Xiaotian was currently in power. The imperial court trusted him, and Chieftain Wang An was biased towards him. He also had another identity: the Venerable of the Gu God cult, a servant of god.

His territory was in the Myriad Mountains. Although it had basically broken free from the Gu God cult's control, the Gu God cult still had at least half of its influence over the tribe. When the Winter Elder had come to surrender, half of his subordinates had wavered. Now that he was faced with the might of the Crouching Bull Ridge, he had to make plans for himself.

As a captive, all Tong Yun could do was agree to Yu Junting's request. She publicly announced that Ge Shangdu would completely submit to the Crouching Bull Ridge and ordered all the local officials under the Tong family's banner to give up resistance and surrender to great general Yu.

Yu Junting immediately took over the Tong family's territory. Tong Yun had never thought that she had even forged an official seal already. Clearly, she had come prepared. As soon as Tong Yun gave the order, she sent people to the various territories under the Tong family's jurisdiction to confiscate the official seals originally appointed by the Tong family and issue official seals forged by the Crouching Bull Ridge.

This was not just a matter of form. It carried a strong psychological hint to the local officials that their authority and status would not be affected at all, but the prerequisite was that they had to be loyal and submit to the Crouching Bull Ridge. As for the Tong family, that was in the past.

Tong Yun originally thought he would receive the same treatment as Shi Qian and the Yang family. His right to command troops would be stripped away, but he would still be in control of the local government and finances. He was both surprised and furious when he heard this news. Tong Yun immediately went to confront Yu Junting.

Yu Junting had already taken over Ge Shangdu, and she had even taken over his territory. She had treated his chieftain's estate as her own general's estate. In a quiet and elegant study, there were half-moon-shaped windows with silken curtains. Sunlight seeped in through the window lattices covered in Korean paper, reflecting the plum vases, vases, and jade bonsai on the bright, purplish-red desk. Tong Yun's heart bled when he saw this. This had originally been his beloved study!

The valiant female general who had taken off her Radiant Armor was in a completely different state right now. She wore embroidered robes and a plain, lake-silk bikini jacket. Her skirt was well-tailored, and the bikini jacket stuck to the curves of her waist, gently hanging past her knees. Her figure was delicate and her appearance elegant, like a Plainheart Orchid that had been carefully nurtured in a greenhouse, ready to bloom.

The current Yu Junting's bearing had been nurtured by the love between a man and a woman, as well as the love between a mother and her daughter. She was completely different from the past. When Tong Yun saw this beauty, it was as if he had seen a snake or a scorpion. He suppressed his anger and cupped his hands towards Yu Junting. He said, "Chieftain Yu, when you asked me to surrender, you made it clear that my Tong family can be compared to the Yang family of Shiqian …"

Before he could finish, Yu Junting stretched out her arms and slowly put down her purple writing brush. She stood up from behind the desk, picked up a stack of notes, and threw them in front of him. Tong Yun was stunned and cut himself off. He said in surprise, "This is …"

Yu Junting did not speak, only raising her chin slightly. Tong Yun hesitantly picked it up and casually flipped open a book. His face immediately changed color. Before he could react, a cold voice had already sounded in his ear, "Take him down!"

Advisor Wen Ao led two warriors in leather armor and appeared behind him with a smile on their faces. They wrapped around his shoulders and arms and tied him up tightly. Tong Yun looked at Yu Junting in horror and said in a trembling voice, "You … what are you doing?"

Yu Junting still did not bother to answer. She just slowly turned her delicate body around and Tong Yun was forcibly dragged out by the two strong men.

The little demoness would not completely follow Ye Xiaotian's arrangements.

Summon and accept surrender? She had never forgotten how the Tongren Zhang family had first surrendered and then rebelled. It was unknown how the situation would change in the future, and the Tong family would not be willing to give up their country just like that. The Tong family's foundation had not been damaged. What would happen if they took advantage of the chaos to create trouble?

The most thorough construction was built on the most thorough destruction. Now that they had found a secret letter between Tong Yun and the Yang family of Bozhou in the Tong residence, with irrefutable evidence in hand, if they did not kill him, when would they? For a time, Ge Shangdu's blood flowed like a river.
