Chapter 235: Chapter 235

235 Something’s Coming

BaiYing’s gaze made FuLan gulp deeply, she could see the fire in those eyes, she held back BaiYing’s hand.

“Then big sister comes along” she shouted.

“Sister, what are you doing?”

Not long after, BaiYing had already changed his clothes and prepared to go out. It was then that ShinYa entered from the direction of the gate.

“Your Majesty” immediately lowered his head respectfully, BaiYing turned his head, just about to greet ShinYa when suddenly his head hurt unbelievably.

“Ah!”

He saw something through his inner eyes, his eyes turned red and something appeared in his head, his two servants had to hold BaiYing’s body as he suddenly staggered.

“Your Majesty”

“Your Majesty what happened?” ShinYa’s eyes widened at the sight of BaiYing’s pair of red eyes, which then slowly returned to normal.

.....

The youth panted, he held ShinYa’s arm tightly, looking at the young man with his big eyes.

“Hoh Master Shin, something’s coming”

BaiYing’s eyes were still wide open, ShinYa tried to look into those eyes to find out what the Viceroy had just seen, and he could also see something huge and terrifying crawling on the ground approaching SanPo city with high speed.

“This...”

He immediately let go of ShinYa’s grip, and hurriedly continued his way towards the exit of the pavilion.

“Come on, we have to prevent His Highness the Crown Prince from going out of the palace.”

Without thinking ShinYa followed him, FuLan didn’t want to be left behind, she chased after the young man.

“Ouch this kid, Ying’er wait!” she exclaimed.

The news of the NuMen attack outside the city gates reached everyone’s ears so that everyone would be alert and prepare themselves for what happened.

........

At the city gates of SanPo.

In a very short time the once very safe area of ??the city became a defensive arena, many barricades with pointed logs were placed at the very front, and the soldiers at the top of the fort wore golden armor complete with all weapons for battle.

The Crown Prince sat proudly on his white horse with BeiYau and the generals on his left and right, many YueYang troops had already gathered after the palace evacuated all the civilians to a far and safe place. Outside the city gate, hundreds, if not thousands of troops with black and slightly red armor lined up neatly behind the commander, the big flags fly fluttered by the wind, seen King MeYa sitting on his horse, and the state advisor, YiXing who was standing at the back, he would not join the battle, he would just stand at the very back to give an advised.

The night before at the temporary base they had set up outside SanPo city.

“Master Yi, are you sure help will come in time? YueYang’s strength is not a figment, they won’t let us go easily after this, this is like suicide” asked King MeYa who sat in the middle of the room after discussing with the commander of the troops who came very quickly, followed his instruction, the army commander was told to head up to YueYang three days after them, it because according to the young advisor visions who was well-known for his inner eyes, something big was about to happen in YueYang, and it did.

King MeYa trusts the young advisor who has worked with him since he was young more than his own son, the young man’s bright brain and responsiveness in strategy and politics are able to make thousands of strong NuMen troops follow his words.

YiXing lowered his head in front of King MeYa.

“King, help will come before noon, I’ll make sure of that”

King MeYa looked at his advisor’s face for a moment, he didn’t expect his cooperation with a small Clan near the NuMen border to get him so much help from them, though, he didn’t mind anything as long as he could defeat YueYang, at least kill the Crown Prince with his own hands.

“The Crown Prince is mine, no one is allowed to touch him, he must die by my hands, LoYi’s fate is very unfortunate, even after injuring him by cutting off his genitals and two hands and feet that person finished him by scraping his heart out, this is too much”

YiXing lowered his head.

“Ready King, I will make sure that the Crown Prince will die in Your hands”

YiXing’s eyes flashed, he kept something in his eyes more than the slight smirk that appeared on his lips without King MeYa seeing it.

And now, the advisor was standing at the back of the army waiting for his help that would come soon, he smirked, watching from afar the birds flying from the trees as something passed by them, for sure, today YueYang would be blown to pieces.

......

By noon the battle between YueYang and NuMen was unavoidable, Commander Gao brought many of his men to paralyze the NueMan troops who barged into the gate, weapons clashed violently, spears and swords hit each other, blood spilled out of nothing.

“Attack!”

Commander Gao shouted to dispel the reckless NuMen troops and attack without care.

King MeYa who was sitting on his horse in the back row looked at his advisor, YiXing who is nowhere to be seen, it’s about time, the help he mentioned should have come and helped them, but, where is that person?

The fighting continued all day until the sun started to darken, casualties had already fallen from both sides, the Crown Prince did not expect that they would fight today, but apparently, the NuMen troops did not give them time to negotiate, they attacked blindly.

General LInMo approached lowering his head in front of the Crown Prince who was discussing with BeiYau and the others.

“Report Your Majesty, Commander Gao managed to repel the enemy at the eastern part of the gate, but a large number of them have already entered the city, they don’t stop”

“Of course, they are very reckless, what King meYa thought by thinking of being able to fight us, they will be destroyed very quickly, General Lin, send an envoy to King MeYa and say that we need some time to talk”

BeiYau approached the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty, is this a good idea? King MeYa has gone dark, he has attacked with the risk of losing though, I don’t think this time he will listen to anyone’s words”

The Crown Prince thought right, he could have repulsed the NuMen troops easily now, especially King MeYa, but he remembered what BaiYing’s word last night.

“Your Majesty, please, do whatever it takes to prevent many innocent victims from falling, however, the soldiers have families waiting anxiously at home, don’t let them be like Ying’er who had to lose everything because of sheer ambition.”

LuoXiang took a deep breath.

“Well anyway, we have to reduce the casualties more from both sides, if it can be avoided we will take another route”

BeiYau lowered his head.

“Ready Your Majesty, I understand”

........

Dragon Hall.

The emperor was busy gathering officials to discuss the latest situation in SanPo city since the morning the hall had been busy with many voices of officials who might agree and disagree, but the increasingly unsafe condition of the city made all the senior officials think hard without arguing.

BaiYing and ShinYa stopped in front of the hall door, making the Emperor who was frowning in raising his hand, stop all discussion.

Before long, the Emperor had already received BaiYing himself in the Dragon Hall while all the officials had returned to their respective posts.

“Your Majesty, let me go out and help Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

The Emperor stroked his chin thoughtfully.

“It’s not going to happen Ying’er, Xiang’er brought a very strong army, General LinMo and Commander Gao are YueYang’s strongest defense, they can definitely withstand even defeat those NuMen troops easily, you don’t have to worry too much about it, before tomorrow afternoon they must have returned to the palace triumphantly.”

BaiYing lowered his head.

“Servant, still have a bad feeling Your Majesty, servant, saw the arrival of a beast to the city, and, soon will destroy the city of SanPo, and, who could defeat that creature might not just be with ordinary strength, only servant and master Shin might have how to defeat him”

BaiYing’s words made the Emperor think.

“Hemh, this is another matter, how can beasts come together with NuMen’s attack, this is very well planned”

ShinYa lowered his head before speaking in front of the Emperor.

“Your Majesty, forgive me for interrupting, but from the start, this may have been the plan of King NuMen’s entourage, with the troops arriving in the city very quickly it was also the original plan, since leaving King MeYa must have ordered his troops to go follow”

The emperor nodded.

“That’s what we thought, but, this is very strange, if the NuMen King was to deliberately attack YueYang, he shouldn’t have to sacrifice his own son too?

BaiYing frowned, deep in thought.

“Em, during the incident, I saw someone else in the room with Prince LoYi, for some reason I felt strange when Prince LoYi said he didn’t know who I really was because his advisor said he knew us very well, wait, what, maybe it’s because of his advisor?”

BaiYing looked at ShinYa.

“What does Your Majesty mean?” he asked.

“Sir Shin, when I was half-conscious that person was in the room with the Prince, but when the Crown Prince arrived, he was nowhere to be seen”

“He probably fled out of fear” continued the Emperor.

“Could be, but, for some reason, he is very suspicious”
