When the sky was bright, Xue Congying and a group of about 30,000 people entered the city of Shiha and were about to reach the city gate.

At this time, a man on horseback came from a distance. Xue Congying stopped beside him and quickly got off the horse: "Master!"

"Well, tell me." Xue Congying snorted and let him speak. This man was Xue Congying's personal bodyguard, who had just gone to the front to inquire about the situation.

"Master, I don't know what's going on. The gate of Shiha City is tightly closed. No one is waiting to greet us at the gate, and no news has come out of the city.

"stop"

Xue Congying waved his hand to stop the team, and then asked, "Have you contacted Xue Boxin?"

"Master, our people sent a signal, but there was no response from the city."

"Where are our people?"

“No movement!”

"Master, is there any trouble in the city?" A man in a black robe next to him said coldly.

"Wizard Yi, that's definitely not the case. When I and the commander left last night, everything was fine. General Xue has tens of thousands of people under his command."

"Hmph! Impossible? Then tell me what the situation is? Why can't we contact Xue Boxin?" the black-robed man said again.

"Father, Master Yi, in my opinion, it might be Xue Boxin who is causing trouble. He might be afraid that once we enter Shiha City, he will have nothing to do with it," said Xue Jianhua, the fourth son of Xue Congying.

"I don't think he would do that, nor would he dare to do that." His third son Xue Jianqi disagreed.

"It's hard to say, we have to be on guard."

"Now is not the time to talk about trivial things. We should quickly send people in to check out the situation in the city." Xue Congying's second son had a clear mind, and he said this without any emotion in his eyes.

"Jianchuan is right. Jianhua, take some people into the city to investigate."

"Yes, father." Xue Jianhua led his men and turned to leave. Among Xue Congying's sons, his fourth son has always been very smart and quick-witted. Xue Congying trained him to be a master at gathering intelligence.

Xue Congying ordered the troops to wait here for orders. The long team of tens of thousands of people stopped here, waiting for news.

Two quarters of an hour passed, and at this time Xue Jianhua came back with his men.

The first thing he said when he came to Xue Congying was, "Father, something happened in Shiha City. Let me tell you, Xue Boxin has a selfish motive."

When Xue Congying heard this, a trace of annoyance flashed across his sinister eyes, and a burst of cold light shot out. Could it be that Xue Boxin had captured Su Huoling's men and occupied Shiha City, and wanted to eat alone? That shouldn't be the case! At this time, he shouldn't do this. What would happen then?

Before Xue Congying could say anything, his third son Xue Jianqi asked, "What do you mean, fourth brother? Did you see Boxin? Or did you hear something from someone?"

"I can't get through the city gate, so how can I possibly see Xue Boxin? If I see him, I'll definitely beat him up."

"Stop talking nonsense and continue." Xue Congying said with a cold face.

Xue Jianhua finally realized that it was his father who spoke, and he was afraid. He quickly said, "Let's go find the secret passage, but for some reason, all the secret passages are blocked." He still muttered in a low voice: Who else could it be if not him? He is the only one who knows our secret passage.

Everyone was speechless after hearing this.

At this time, the black-robed chess wizard let out a deep and terrifying laugh, which made people shudder. "This may not be the work of General Xue. It is possible that he really has an accident."

Xue Congying frowned deeply. From last night till now, he didn't believe that anything would happen to Xue Boxin. He had tens of thousands of soldiers under his command.

But he believed the wizard's words very much. His eyes became extremely fierce at this moment. He looked at his sons and his men and said, "We can only act according to the second plan now. Wizard Yi, what do you think?"

"Well, let's go with the second set."

"Prepare for action. Jianchuan, Jianqi, and Jianhua, listen up. The three of you quickly lead the soldiers to the city gate. We will be right behind you. We will see the wizard in a moment."

"Yes." Each of the three sons led a team of men and headed towards the south gate of Shiha City not far away.

General Su, Junior General Ouyang, Deputy General Yang and several others were standing on the city wall, observing the distance with telescopes.

At this time, Ouyang Yunhan saw a group of people through the telescope. "General Su, Deputy General Yang, did you see that group of people?"

"Yes, there are a lot of people." said Deputy General Yang.

General Su held up a telescope and said, "We don't recognize these people. Their clothes don't look like ours. They are probably not General Peng's men." He thought for a moment and said to a soldier leader who had surrendered to the city, "Do you recognize the man on the horse?"

The troops came a little closer, and the little leader who was in charge of the city said, "General, the man on the horse in the front is called Xue Jianchuan. He is Xue Shuai... no... no no..., he is Xue Congying's second son. The two people next to him are also Xue Congying's sons, but I don't know how many sons they are. Xue Congying has many sons."

"Oh, what? The old guy didn't come."

At this time, Deputy General Yang saw that there were many people riding tall horses following the team, who looked like leaders, so he pointed to the distance and said to General Su and the others: "General, the man at the back looks a bit like Prime Minister Xue."

General Su and his men also saw the little leader who surrendered to the city, pointing excitedly at the person who was getting closer and closer and saying, "General, General, that person is Xue...Xue Congying."

"OK,"

……

Soon, Xue Congying's sons, Xue Jianchuan and others, had brought their troops to the gate of Shiha City.

They stopped their horses and looked at the closed city gate.

One of Xue Jianchuan's deputies shouted to the soldiers standing on the city wall, "Where is your young general Xue? Why don't you open the city gate and let him come to see his uncles?"

A soldier from the Divine Artifact Battalion on the city wall looked at the crowd below and the person who was speaking arrogantly, "Who are you? I don't know any General Xue."

"How dare you talk like that? Call Xue Boxin over."

"Oh, the boy Xue Boxin you are talking about has been escorted to Kyoto by our general."

"Hahaha, what are you talking about in your sleep? He was even escorted to Kyoto. Hurry and call him out."

"Who are you? Are you in the same group as Xue Boxin? Are you a rebel? I advise you to surrender quickly."

"You are just a few people, and you still want us to surrender. Listen carefully, we are General Xue's men. If you don't want to die, open the city gate and let us in. We won't make things difficult for you. If you open the city gate, don't blame us for being rude."

"Humph! Xue Shuai, who is Xue Shuai? How can a small fry call himself a general? How arrogant he is."
