"If I didn't tell you that I was going to Tianming Continent, would you let your guard down?"

Yi Yue Haotian replied with a smile. He now suspected that Huang Jing had something to do with the previous sneak attack by the people from Yanyue Palace.

"Humph... How dare you play tricks on me?"

Huang Jing snorted coldly, her face full of anger.

"It's not a joke, is it? We are just taking advantage of the opponent's tactics and protecting ourselves."

Chu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, and his words revealed a sense of confidence.

"You are just a yellow-haired girl. Even if you have seen through my plan, what can you do? Don't you think that this is the only trick I have?"

Huang Jing looked at Chu Xi with admiration in her eyes. She had to admit that this yellow-haired girl was very smart and could play her around. It would be great if she was her own child.

What a pity...

"Oh? Then Prince Jing, feel free to use whatever tricks you have. I am waiting for you here..."

“Humph… How arrogant! Even if you have Yi Yue Haotian protecting you, I don’t believe you can still defeat tens of thousands of soldiers.”

Huang Jing caught a glimpse of Ye Qian coming with his troops, and the gloom in his heart disappeared, with the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously.

Ye Qian led her men to surround Chu Xi from behind. When she saw that Chu Xi was still alive, a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she quickly calmed down, picked up the sword in her hand, pointed at Chu Xi standing in the middle and said, "Your Highness Changsun, you have been surrounded by me. Why don't you surrender quickly?"

"Hey... General Ye is here... This is really unexpected. I didn't expect that General Ye and Prince Jing were in cahoots. Are you planning to kill me by colluding with me from the inside and outside?"

"Yes, that's exactly what I meant."

Ye Qian frowned as she looked at the situation in front of her and found that it was different from what she had expected, but she still chose to believe Prince Jing and replied to Chu Xi in a cold voice.

Chu Xi laughed when he heard this: "Then how will General Ye put me to death? With the three thousand soldiers behind you?"

As soon as these words came out, Huang Jing, who was trapped inside, immediately changed his expression and asked immediately: "What do you mean by three thousand soldiers? Isn't it twenty thousand soldiers and horses?"

Ye Qian, who was standing outside, finally realized something was wrong. His heart sank instantly. Were they falling into a trap?

Then who has been communicating with me during this period?

"Hehe...Prince Jing, this couldn't be the back-up plan you mentioned?" Chu Xi smiled and turned to look at her.

"Ye Qian, what's going on?"

Huang Jing wanted to rush out to question General Ye, but before she took two steps, a soldier beside her put a knife to her neck, making her unable to move.

"This……"

A trace of sadness flashed through Ye Qian's heart. She didn't even know how to start speaking. She just held the sword tightly in her hand.

"Ye Qian, please speak. Why aren't you speaking?"

Huang Jing shouted anxiously. She now urgently wanted to get a definite answer from Ye Qian.

Ye Qian's eyes turned red. After a long silence, he mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Majesty, we have fallen into a trap."

Hearing this, Huang Jing suddenly became quiet, his eyes darkened instantly, his face was full of dejection, and he kept muttering, "Impossible, this is impossible, this is not the ending I want."

Why? Why is this happening?

What went wrong?

Huang Jing was at a loss at this moment. Her plans over the past few decades seemed like a joke.

Chu Xi glanced at Prince Jing who seemed a little crazy, then turned back to look at General Ye at the bottom of the stairs.

"General Ye, I advise you to lay down your weapons and surrender. If you show a good attitude, I may be able to give you a lighter sentence."

Ye Qian didn't say anything, but she held the sword even harder. She glared at Chu Xi fiercely, as if she wanted to cut her into pieces.

Seeing that she remained silent, Chu Xi immediately guessed her thoughts and continued to persuade her, "General Ye, are you planning to fight to the death? Don't you think more about the future of your brothers and sisters behind you?"

"It's still uncertain whether you live or die. I don't believe that the three thousand elite soldiers under my command can't capture you guys."

Ye Qian didn't want to admit defeat so quickly. Based on the current situation, she felt that she still had a chance of winning.

"Heh... General Ye is quite confident. Did you find that it was too smooth to enter the city? It can be said that there was no obstacle all the way?"

Chu Xi crossed his arms across his chest, looking calm and composed, not worried about the current situation at all.

Ye Qian listened to Chu Xi's words and recalled the scene just now. It was indeed very smooth. Because she received a secret letter from Prince Jing, the letter said that she had arranged everything and only needed to send 3,000 elite soldiers to suppress the situation.

That was why she did not become suspicious when she entered the city, because she knew that apart from the imperial guards personally commanded by His Majesty, most of the guards in the palace were Prince Jing's men.

"What do you mean?" Ye Qian was a little flustered at the moment.

"Is it possible that we deliberately let you lead your troops into the city?"

"you……"

Ye Qianxin was suddenly startled. If she had been more careful just now, this situation would not have happened. At this moment, she became very upset.

Huang Jing, who was held in the hall, took advantage of the guards' carelessness and suddenly broke free, using her martial arts to run towards Chu Xi. Before anyone could react, she had already arrived in front of Chu Xi and raised her hand to strangle her throat.

"Don't move, or I will kill her." Huang Jing pulled Chu Xi and threatened everyone.

"Huang Jing, what do you want to do? Let Xier go." Huang Lan said anxiously, fearing that Huang Jing would really kill his grandson.

"What I want is very simple. I just want you to write an imperial edict and pass the throne to me."

"You can ask me to write it, but you should release Xi'er first."

"No, if I let her go now, I will be dead. Please ask my sister to draft an imperial decree."

"Prince Jing, it's already this time, and you are still so stubborn." Yi Yue Haotian, who was protecting Huang Lan, couldn't help but scold him.

"Hmph... No one can stop me today. The throne belongs to me, otherwise I will die together with you." Huang Jing's face became distorted, and her eyes flashed with extreme madness.

"Ha ha……"

Chu Xi, who was being strangled by Huang Jing, suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at, little girl? Believe it or not, I will send you to see the King of Hell right now."

Huang Jing was furious when she saw Chu Xi totally ignored her, and she tightened her grip around her throat.

Chu Xi was choked so hard that she couldn't breathe and her face turned red. Suddenly, Huang Jing's hand was stung by something and she immediately let go of her hand because of the pain.

Chu Xi took the opportunity to turn around, took out his pistol, and shot Huang Jing.

Before Huang Jing could see clearly what it was, her shoulder felt bruised.

"Your Highness..." Ye Qian saw that Huang Jing was injured and raised his foot to rush forward.

"General Ye, I advise you not to move. My weapon has no eyes." Chu Xi pointed the gun at Ye Qian at the steps and warned in a cold voice.
