There were talks circulating amongst the troop, Phoenix Nirvana, which referred to Ye Huaiyang.

With dark clouds weighing down heavily and the city under siege, the major political changes in Chu Country were imminent. Hence, the rumors were even more rampant, saying that Chu Jinglan was originally the worlds real descended dragon while his legal wife was naturally the phoenix whose death could be resurrected and returned unscathed even after jumping off Zhuolutai.

No one had thought that Ye Huaiyang had actually arranged a retreat route and set Chu Sanghuai up. Furthermore, no one knew that Chu Jinglan deliberately rushed to use the conceit of auspiciousness as a substitute to spread the rumors to protect Ye Huaiyang from being demonized and harrassed by others.

But this was only a matter of trifles like the sesame seeds. The most significant is that the allied forces of both Northern Land and Guanzhong will begin to attack the city in a couple of days.

The imperial army was mostly killed and wounded in the battle of Bailing Pass while most of those who survived had surrendered, leaving merely 50,000 people fleeing back to Wangdu. Although they were still putting up desperate struggles, they were no longer enough to be feared. Afraid of being affected by the war, the people in Wangdu hid in their homes all day long and dared not go out. Some court officials were still persuading Chu Sanghuai to go south to Luo City while others evidently had already supported Chu Jinglan. It was completely a chaotic mess from top to bottom and everywhere was not peaceful.

Under the joint planning of Chu Jinglan, Chu Zhenghe, Ye Huaili and others, the allied forces finally prepared for a sneak attack tonight.

Dusk was falling upon the vast world and the frosty snow remnant had yet to melt away as it glittered dazzlingly under the dimly discernible candlelight. It was close to midnight now. Ye Huaiyang, who should have fallen asleep, was standing in the center of the brightly lit commanders tent and was still straightening out Chu Jinglans armor.

I heard Wang Jun had switched to the highly fatal poisoned arrows a few days ago. You must be careful.

I know.

He has always been closely brief that Ye Huaiyang has long been used to. But at this moment, her heart kept on palpitating like it was about to bounce out of her throat. She couldnt help pressing her hand over her chest then thought aloud after a moment of consideration, Not knowing if Lu Heng there has the antidote? Ill go ask him and if there is, give two pills for Elder Brother to take along too.

After saying that, she put down the hands that were fastening the buttons to turn around and about to go out when Chu Jinglan quickly pulled her back into his arms then spoke with a little helpless mirth, You know its highly fatal, so how can there be an antidote?

Then, then cant also endure it futilely ah

Her tongue even began to get knotted and she was obviously worrying to the extreme. Seeing this, Chu Jinglan gathered her in his arms and reassured her patiently, Your Husband and Elder Brother are not fools, naturally we wont simply charge towards the poisoned arrows. Everything has been deployed, so just relax and go to bed. We will be back when the day breaks.

He urged Ye Huaiyang to sit down on the side of the bed as he coaxed her. The one in the belly started moving again. Knowing the child was bothering her when Chu Jinglan saw her frowning, his movement became all the more agile as he quickly took off her coat then covered her with the quilt.

Okay, close your eyes.

It was not surprising that he was so nervous. Ye Huaiyangs pregnancy was already unstable and letting her sleeplessly toss and turn with worries, he could not feel at ease too. So he turned around to sit down when the hard armor lightly scraped against the edge of the bed.

Probing out from the quilt, Ye Huaiyang stared at him for a long time with the pair of lustrous eyes and smiled suddenly, Its me who are over worrying, you and Elder Brother are both seasoned fighters, whats this little battle? You go ahead, the baby and I will sleep now.

Kissing her forehead, Chu Jinglans eyes were profoundly bright as if on the verge of daybreak.

Wait for my triumphant return.

Ye Huaiyang deliberately stuck her belly out and pretended to say, Wishing King Father victory in one go!

Smiling with seemingly fragmented stars in his eyes that were bright and dazzling, Chu Jinglan was seen stroking her belly tenderly before turning around to blow out the candlelight. He then picked up the long sword and left. She looked at the dark shadow walking past the tent before falling asleep with ease.

The color of the sky was getting darker like ink spilled on the rice paper, so dense that the original color could not be seen. Under this natural barrier, the army set out silently.

Large number of troops patrolled back and forth around the towering city wall of Wangdu, seemingly in strict orderly formation but the people inside had long been discouraged. So when the allied forces carried out a sneak attack, many people thought it was a feint. They only realized something was not right after a deafening explosion sounded and they hurriedly tightened their belts before rushing towards the city gate with the swords.

A seasoned soldier who was used to being lazy complained while moving sluggishly, Why dont you come and fight openly during the day? Its the middle of the night, this really disturbs peoples dreams!

Before his words faltered, he was nudged unexpectedly. Rubbing the back of his head, he grimaced and was just about to look back to see which bastard had attacked him when the battalion commanders panicked roar exploded in his ears.

The allied forces have arrived!

Though there were shouts, the patrolling soldiers could not pin down which city gates the allied troops were attacking from. Various noises filled the ears but not a shadow was seen. King Tao then made a quick decision to send more soldiers to the eastern gate but the drumming of retreating gongs sounded from the west exploding his brain as he seemingly found himself under fire from all quarters.

When dense fire arrows eventually lit up half of the city wall, he finally found Chu Zhenghes trail in the west but it didnt take long for another soldier to report that big ramming carts had turned up in the east and were forcibly attacking the city gate. Amidst the chaos, a large troop led by Chu Jinglan and Ye Huaili appeared at the northern main gate.

King Tao ordered arrows to be released where the highly poisonous arrows instantly strayed heads-on. Then Chu Jinglans shout was merely heard and the allied forces soldiers immediately set up a shield wall to block the attack. Unwilling to give up, King Tao just wanted to shoot at the two of them and launched an intense continuous attack to attain the goal of disintegrating the allied forces, which yielded little effect. But just at this moment, news came from the west that Chu Zhenghe had breached the city gate.

It turned out that they came to draw an onslaught on purpose.

A blood-stained-faced deputy general ran over hurriedly to urge, Wangye, we cant hold the outside anymore. Lets retreat to the inner Imperial City!

Brushing him aside, King Tao shouted through clenched teeth, To snare the brigands, first catch their King. This King will reward ten thousand taels of gold to anyone who gets Chu Jinglans rebel head!

As soon as these words came out, soldiers who were rushing to the western gate to thwart Chu Zhenghes entry into the city turned and pointed their spearheads towards Chu Jinglan when the western gate was instantly swarmed with massive allied troops led by the brave and battle-wise, Chu Zhenghe all the way to the center of the kill. Bloodbath was everywhere with continuous distinct shrieks. Soon, the eastern gate cracked open under his bolstering where Meng Xuan barged straight into the city with powerful mechanisms which crushed countless imperial armies to pieces.

Taking into consideration the common people and the enemys full siege, the two men temporarily held back. While at the northern gate, Chu Jinglan and Ye Huaili who only had the shield soldiers under their leadership had no ability to attack, so the northern gate was tardily not breached yet.

Rain of arrows on the city wall did not stop and were all aimed at Chu Jinglan. The shield wall was gradually a little strained when a poisoned arrow suddenly flew over from an extremely tricky angle to plunge straight into Chu Jinglans heart. Ye Huailis expression changed drastically. Just when he was about to raise his sword to block, he saw Chu Jinglan raise his hand quickly to actually stop the arrow firmly in midair, then with the rapidity of lightning, he drew the bow back and aimed it precisely at King Tao!

Dark green light swept over the ice-cold city wall but the sound of the arrowhead grazing through the skin was too small for anyone to notice amidst the noises of the thousand troops close quarters fight. But the next moment, the loud thud of the chief commanders toppling over shocked everyone.

Physically paralyzed on the ground, King Tao convulsed and spat mouthfuls of blood like the water fountain. From the pulse on his wrist, the poison had already spread all over his body that even the Great Golden Immortal had difficulty saving him. The imperial armies that had been fighting the battle of trapped beasts finally fell in disarray at this moment and scattered. Chu Zhenghe and Meng Xuan got ahead, breaking through the northern gate to join Chu Jinglan and Ye Huailis team.

After a night of intense battle, Wangdus entire defense line was breached.

Fire beacons smoke signalling the hostilitys presence was still drifting in the air when grey dawn appeared in the east. Standing expressionlessly amid the ruined wall, Chu Jinglan was scanning the surrounding area when he suddenly raised his arm and shouted, All troops heed the order, attack the inner Imperial City!

No sooner said than done, a mass of dark dense allied forces swamped towards the inner Imperial City like tidewater. The palace gates were fragmentary demolished under waves after waves of impact while the remaining imperial armies were captured. The last line of defense leading to Hall of the Golden Chimes collapsed just like this without any more obstacles in between.

Chu Sanghuai was as good as lost.

Various palaces were already immersed in the early bloom of the morning sun and the scattering upturned eaves were all dyed with golden adornments. It was originally another vibrant day but it could not mask the lifeless atmosphere from inside out which was so quiet that it made people nervous.

Chu Jinglan sheathed his sword when his stern voice echoed through the entire front courtyard, All troops divided into two groups to block off every palace gate and corners of the inner courts for this King. No one is allowed to leave!

Yes!

The unison response of all the soldiers was so dynamically powerful that even the grey bricks under their feet shook. When Meng Xuan and Chu Zhenghe were about to lead and set off with the soldiers, Chu Jinglan stopped Chu Zhenghe with his extended arm and coldly spat out a few words, Dont let him die.

Chu Zhenghe understood and a cold smile hung on his face.

Dont worry. Wouldnt it benefitted him to die so soon?

After saying that, he rode his horse and galloped into the imperial residence. Even though he had fought in bloody battles for so long, his heroic spirit did not diminish in the slightest. Once his figure disappeared at the end, Chu Jinglan turned around and walked towards the outer palace when the bewildered Ye Huaili hurriedly stopped him.

Youre not going in?

Chu Jinglan shot him a glance and said, Guanzhong army will stay here to check and sort out the captured personnel but you come with me.

They had already fought till here and it was fine that he let Chu Sanghuai live. Yet he did not summon the ministers to prepare for enthronement but still wanted to go out. What does this mean?

Where to?

Without looking back, Chu Jinglan tossed the horsewhip which Ye Huaili just barely caught when he heard him say, I promised Yanger to go back with you at daybreak and its already late now. You move quickly.

En breaking through the northern gate was somewhat behind schedule than expected

Ye Huaili was thinking as such when a certain nerve in his mind inadvertently jerk which pulled him back to reality suddenly and the corners of his mouth immediately twitched a little just because he was eager to go back to see Yanger, he abandon the readily available throne and all the soldiers of the three forces here?

This is not the same as in the past. How many pairs of eyes are watching his every move; it is easily a matter of derision by doing so which may also cause trouble for Yanger. Wont do, its still better to cover it up.

Ye Huaili sighed and whipped his horse to catch up.
