Nan Xunâs expression changed imperceptibly when he heard those words. He narrowed his eyes, thinking about something. Soon, he sneered and said, âYu Yunxi, youâre about to die, and yet, you still have the time to talk about other things with me. Looks like youâre quite afraid of deathâ¦â
The general next to Nan Xun also said mockingly, âYu Yunxi, werenât you very arrogant in the past? Why are you in such a sorry state now?â
Just as the other party laughed, an arrow suddenly shot out toward him. He was very fast and dodged it in an instant. Otherwise, the arrow would have pierced his throat.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nan Xun could sense that something was amiss at this moment. He surveyed his surroundings warily.
It was also at this moment that arrows rained down from above.
Those who did not react in time were pierced by the arrows.
âYu Yunxi!â Nan Xun roared. In the next moment, he felt his body weakening. When he looked around, he discovered that the people he brought with him had all fallen.
âWait a minute⦠It was very foggy earlier when we came up the mountain⦠I thought it was strange earlier⦠Now that I think about itâ¦
âYu Yunxi, you actually poisoned me again?!â Nan Xun asked indignantly. âThatâs right. Itâs just as you said, my forte isnât martial arts, but poison. Youâve been tricked by the same move many times. It seems like youâre not very smart,â Yu Yunxi said mockingly.
Nan Xun gnashed his teeth in anger. He could only stew in his anger since he could not use his internal energy for now. At this time, a huge net fell from the sky.
âThis, thisâ¦
Even Liu Xiaolan was shocked by the sudden turn of events. Everything went very smoothly, but this was not part of their initial plan. He asked curiously, âThis net, the archers⦠Theyâre not part of the plan. Why donât I know about them?â
Yu Yunxi was not in a hurry to answer Liu Xiaolan. She looked at Nan Xun coldly as she said to the guard behind her, âBring the black iron chain over.â
The guard brought over the black iron chain that had been carefully forged. Under everyoneâs watchful eyes, they tied Nan Xun up.
Nan Xun glared at Yu Yunxi with eyes shining with hatred as he was being tied up.
Yu Yunxi bent down slightly and asked with a faint smile on her face, âAre you also curious about why the plan you heard is different?â
Nan Xun was indeed furious, but the unwillingness in his eyes also told Yu Yunxi that he really wanted to hear the answer.
At this moment, Feng Yili, who was standing behind Yu Yunxi, said coldly,
âThatâs because the plan you heard was fake.â
Upon hearing this, Yu Yunxi turned to look at Feng Yili in surprise. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, only Shen Si and the people involved knew about this matter. Unexpectedly, Feng Yili guessed it.
âWhat?â Nan Xunâs expression changed. He stared at Yu Yunxi as though he wanted to kill her.
âTake him away,â Yu Yunxi said to the guards.
âYes, County Princess.â
Then, Yu Yunxi looked at Zhong Kun, one of the generals next to Nan Xun. She said with a smile, âGeneral Zhong, right? I remember you.â
In the next moment, her gaze turned cold. No one saw how she did it, but in just a moment, she stabbed her dagger into Zhong Kunâs shoulder.
The pain caused Zhong Kunâs face to contort, but he did not have any strength to resist. He wanted to curse at Yu Yunxi, but she was quicker and directly dislocated his jaw.
Then, Yu Yunxi randomly said to a soldier from Nanyue, âGo back and tell your people that if they donât want anything to happen to your Crown Prince and General Zhong, retreat ten miles immediately.â
âYes!â
The soldier trembled in fear and hurried down the mountain.
âTake the others away.â
âYes, County Princess!â
Looking at how decisive and ruthless Yu Yunxi was, Feng Yiliâs eyes flashed with some unknown emotions. As it turned out, there was another side to his Princess Consort.
Liu Xiaolan, who felt quite redundant, cleared his throat at this moment and asked, âThen what should we do now?â
âWeâre going back to the city. Thereâs a big show waiting for us in the city after all,â Yu Yunxi said frostily.
In Xinan.
âGeneral. â
A guard hurried over to Han Naâs side.
Seeing that no one was around, Han Na lowered his voice and asked, âHow is
âYoung Marquis Luo is guarding the city gate. I canât even go out and inquire about the situation on the battlefield, â the guard said gloomily with a frown on his face.
âThat Luo Xiuran is really a hindrance,â Han Na said through gritted teeth as his eyes shone with killing intent.
âHowever, Young Marquis Luoâs expression didnât look too good. I also vaguely heard that the County Princess is injured. I donât think sheâd be able to hold on for much longer,â the guard said in a low voice.
Han Naâs eyes lit up upon hearing this, and his mood improved. He said,
âAlright, pass down my order. Our people can move now.â
âGeneral, should we really take action now? If we lose, then weâ¦â the guard said hesitantly.
If they failed this time, their identities would be exposed, and they would be in great danger.
âDonât worry. After the Crown Prince received news from us, heâd definitely destroy Yu Yunxiâs traps and capture her. Our main mission in the city is to deal with that old geezer, Shen Si. With our people working inside and outside, Xinan will definitely be ours!â Han Na said coldly with a scoff. Then, he glanced at the guard and asked, âDid you drug that old geezerâs tea?â
Han Nan nodded in satisfaction. The only person he was worried about now was Luo Xiuran, who stayed in the city. However, as long as he had Shen Si in his hands, Luo Xiuran would not be able to do much.
âGo,â Han Na said lightly.
âYes, General!â
The guard quickly left to mobilize their men.
After watching the guard leave, Han Na raised his head and took a deep breath, closing his eyes. He was looking forward to victory. As long as they were successful, he would become the Imperial Preceptor of Nanyue..
