Chapter 238 - What Is There to Show off
“General Qi… General Qi and the others are back! ” A shout broke the silence of the camp.
Instantly, no matter if they were practicing or patrolling, all of them rushed over. And when they saw Huo Tian and the three hundred odd people who were missing, their eyes filled with tears.
Yesterday, when they were so tired from training all day, they finally realized that Yin Xu had disappeared. If it were not for the fact that there were more than 300 people missing, they would have thought that Yin Xu had escaped.
Fortunately, Yin Xu had left some servants to do the thinking, and when the ten thousand soldiers realized that they had been deliberately forgotten, their desolate mood became as cold as the cold weather.
They were depressed but helpless and could only wait patiently in the camp.
Many of them were still discussing privately, suspecting that the Seventh Young Master would not be able to return. This trip would have a slim chance of survival, who knew that before nightfall the next day, he would already be back and would even bring back their comrades.
There were also factions in the Capital Camp. They had always been on the same side as General Qi, and they also firmly believed that he wouldn't be bribed by the Duke of Qin.
“Good kids, so it's you guys. Where's General Chen?” Qixin realised that this was his brother's soldier and wanted to mock him. As a high-ranking officer, how could he hide inside the camp?
The youngster stammered for a long time before he finally whispered, “The general didn't come.”
“What?” Why didn't he come? Do you not dare to come, or do you think that this general has betrayed the general and does not wish to see this general anymore? ” Qixin's eyes were as big as cows, just missing two horns on his forehead.
“No, no …” General, please do not misunderstand. It is not that General Chen did not want to come, but the Emperor was worried that there would be two tigers in the same mountain.
Yin Xu coughed dryly, he raised his head and looked up to the sky, pondering if he should tell Yue Yang that he emphasized that he should not let anyone interfere with his decision.
“Haha, that's great. Luckily, he didn't lead the team. Otherwise, with his mind full of military strategies, it would have been strange for him to win.”
In fact, from Qixin's point of view, no matter who was in charge of the army, they would not be able to do what Yin Xu was doing. To be able to capture the Duke of Qin and the Second Prince alive in such a short period of time, and even rescue the besieged them, even if the Marshal Huo himself took action, it would at most be like this.
Qixin cast his fiery gaze on Yin Xu, staring at him as if he was about to burn a hole in his body.
“What are you looking at me for?” Yin Xu swept his gaze across him from head to toe, his gaze resting on his crotch, “Even if you fall for this young master, it's useless. This young master doesn't like a barbarian cow like you.
“…” Qixin's swarthy skin had changed colors unprecedented in history. His chest rose and fell unsteadily, and a drop of cold sweat rolled down from his temples.
“Even though those words are shocking, don't be so sad. Look at you, why are you blushing?” Have you never been rejected before? “
“No …” How could he have taken a fancy to a man? A young man who hadn't grown up yet?
“I knew it. Looking at your age and appearance, you must have encountered quite a few these kinds of things. It's good that you're used to it.”
“No …” What's wrong with his age? He had just passed by and was in his prime! So what if he looked like this? How many men in the army could be stronger than him?
“So wake up, it's impossible for me to fall for you, moreover, I will not agree to Teng Yu's request.” After Yin Xu finished speaking, he slightly raised his chin, showing off a little.
Qixin was not sure if he was showing off his intelligence, or just showing off how he could gain the Third Prince's favor. No matter which one, what was there to show off?
He especially wanted to shout at Yin Xu: “I have a wife and beautiful concubine, children and girls, who would like a brat like you?”
However, he didn't say these words out loud. He only chuckled coldly, “Brother Huo is truly charming.”
The corner of Yin Xu's mouth curled up, and just as he was about to reply, he heard someone shout, “Seventh Young Master, the Duke of Qin and the Second Prince are awake!”
“Bring him here.” Yin Xu pushed the crowd aside and opened up an empty space.
The Duke of Qin and the Second Prince were still a little unconscious, but they didn't need to wake up to know that they had been captured. When the two of them were pushed in front of Yin Xu, their faces were filled with bewilderment and shock.
“Hu!” “Heavens!” Second Prince clenched his teeth and called out Yin Xu's name, his entire body releasing the craziness of a trapped beast.
“Second Prince, how have you been?”
“How did you do it?” The Duke of Qin was even calmer than the Second Prince, he calmed down very quickly after the shock. It had to be said that the fact that he was able to secretly develop such a force all these years was not without reason.
Yin Xu shifted his gaze towards him, “Do you want to hear the process of your own failure?”
The word “failed” was too heavy and too quick for the Duke of Qin to accept. According to his plans, this was definitely not the case.
Even if he did not have the confidence to win against the emperor, he could at least lengthen his battle line and confront the imperial government for a few years.
If his luck was good, he might even be able to get half a mountain.
“Why should I? A loss is a loss. Even if you know where you lose, you still won't be able to turn it into a victory. You'll only be able to reflect on how weak you are. “
“Weak?” The Duke of Qin did not think so. He had escaped from the capital all the way to the Kun City. He had control of his own Kun City.
“You people always use your brains to scheme and scheme. However, as long as you are strong enough, you are nothing but a paper tiger when it comes to your enemies. Of course, if you could have sent troops to attack us at the first possible moment, things might not have turned out like this. “
The formation array of his three hundred guards was not agile. They could fight against a fixed wall, but they could not follow anyone on the battlefield. If they really had to face hundreds of people, then they could only escape.
Even if it was Yin Xu himself, he wouldn't be able to kill all of these tens of thousands of people, unless the Demon Lord appeared.
The Duke of Qin indeed did not put the ten thousand soldiers that Yin Xu was leading in his eyes. He only wanted to guard against Yin Xu alone, but he wanted to defend against the methods that he used to set up the array.
However, an array was not something that could be formed just because it was there. According to what he knew from the palace, Yin Xu's array could only be used against a small number of people, he did not believe that it would be able to trap an army.
Moreover, at that time he was overjoyed at the huge amount of funds brought over by the Xiao Family. He only thought that they had just arrived and would definitely have to rest for a few days before being able to fight, so he naturally wasn't prepared for it.
And facing an expert like Yin Xu, would being on guard be useful? The Duke of Qin expressed his doubts.
This youth was too strange, appearing at a strange time. His experiences were strange, and his transformation was even stranger.
It was as if a piece of trash who was originally reborn with immortal roots had been reborn with flesh and blood. It was like a piece of trash who had been reborn with immortal roots.
When you think that the ability he is displaying right now is his strongest skill, he will give you a new surprise the next moment.
It was impossible for the Duke of Qin not to investigate such a strange person thoroughly. The results of his investigation, aside from proving that he was even stranger, didn't have any evidence to back it up.
Therefore, he got people to follow Huo Qi's previous appearance and found a perfect replica. He also found some powerful human evidence, so he wasn't afraid of distorting this fact.
Unfortunately, his plan failed before it could be put into effect.
“Huo Tian, this king wants to talk to you alone.” Even if the Duke of Qin was defeated, he was still defeated in a way that was extremely charismatic.
“However, it's getting late, we'll talk about it after we eat. The Duke and Second Prince must have eaten their fill last night, so they shouldn't be hungry, so don't waste any more food.”
This Huo Tian was far more interesting than he had imagined, no wonder he had even lost to Teng Yu.
On the other hand, the Second Prince did not have a good temper anymore, he scolded Yin Xu: “Who do you think you are? If you want to kill or cut, that is up to the Royal Father.
Yin Xu frowned, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked Second Prince in the stomach, sending him flying for more than 10 metres.
Looking at the man who fell to the ground in pain, Yin Xu laughed coldly: “You're wrong, this young master has the final say on whether or not you want to kill me. Try it if you don't believe me!”
Before he left, he had asked the Emperor what he thought of these two as his prisoners, the kind who controlled life and death.
And the reason why these two were still alive was because they were still useful.
The mission of capturing these two alive could be considered as accomplished, but to complete it perfectly, they had to eliminate all their loyal followers together. In addition, they also needed to see the blood of the more than ten thousand people he brought.
Otherwise, wouldn't his trip have been a waste?
Yin Xu had just learnt how to read people, so he needed the help of these people's practices.
Furthermore, they had to be convinced from the bottom of their hearts and willingly join the Third Prince.
Even if Yin Xu thought highly of them, he understood how great of a temptation it was to have them place their lives on Teng Yu.
