"..."
"But now, you all should be able to hear it."
"...!"
Upon hearing these words, a look of shock imdiately appeared on Xiao Yuansui’s face, even more so than when he just witnessed the brutal fighting and saw Lu Yong getting slain with a single strike!
And at this mont, the surrounding people also seed to begin panicking.
They looked at each other, as if an uneasy emotion was silently spreading, but no one dared to speak, fearing that once they did, it would beco a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Only Yu Wenye was able to speak at this mont.
He slowly said, "In my plan, recalling all your n to the city is the final step!"
At this mont, it was as if an earth-shattering sound erupted above everyone’s heads.
And as that sound settled in Xiao Yuansui’s heart, it was as if his heart had completely sunk.
Including everything about him.
The cold wind swept through, carrying away the faint, inaudible cries of battle, as if it also took the last bit of warmth and strength from his body. He staggered, nearly falling, but fortunately, the people behind him rushed up to support him, exclaiming, "Boss!"
"Brother Xiao, be careful!"
Xiao Yuansui did not speak; he simply took a deep breath, then slowly lifted his head, looking at that cold face, and said in a deep voice, "This, is also your calculation?"
Yu Wenye said, "The first ti I attacked Xingluo Granary, I discovered that you had deployed many people along the path into the mountains."
"..."
"These people don’t need to fight directly; just by doing two things, they can ensure the stability of Xingluo Granary—first, activate the devices. Those Thunder Stones and rolling logs are enough to make your defense on the mountain path impenetrable; second, send ssages into the city, preparing the people inside for battle."
"..."
"I couldn’t defeat these people."
"..."
"So, I could only find a way to make you withdraw them yourself."
Xiao Yuansui’s voice already carried a hint of a bitter smile as he said, "Indeed, it’s impossible for to withdraw those people myself, but soone has stirred up internal conflict within our ranks in the city, and when the people of Wanggang Village ca for accountability, I had to remove those people to appease them and keep the brothers united. But by doing so, instead, it provided you an opportunity."
Speaking of this, he looked up at him again.
He wasn’t just looking at Yu Wenye, but also at Shang Ruyi behind him. In those bright eyes of hers, instead of anger, there was a hint of admiration.
He said, "During these tis, although the virtuous couple did not et, they cooperated seamlessly."
"..."
"The two of you, truly a couple made in heaven!"
As soon as he said this, Shang Ruyi imdiately heard a thump in her chest.
And not just the sound in her chest; it was as if she could hear an unusual stirring in the heart of the person standing in front of her.
However, Yu Wenye did not turn back.
He said without changing his expression, "The reason you couldn’t find my n was indeed because they went to Wanggang Village and have always stayed near Wanggang Village; it was only when Hu Jinfeng brought his n that they moved and then followed behind that group all the way."
"..."
"So, when they entered the city, my n could also enter the city."
While the two of them were talking, at every checkpoint of Xingluo Warehouse City, those usually heavily guarded places, where not even a fly could pass through, were already in chaos. Although Xiao Yuansui’s n were brave, once the court’s troops entered the mountains, with their superior numbers, they were simply overwhelming. Very soon, every road and every checkpoint was taken, and those who swore not to surrender were already lying in pieces in the white snow.
Blood flowed slowly down the mountain paths.
The entire Warehouse City beca a crimson canvas.
Even without seeing it with his own eyes, Xiao Yuansui could almost perceive this scene unfolding before him. He lifted his head, sighed despairingly towards the gloomy sky.
Yu Wenye said, "Now, you have two choices before you."
Xiao Yuansui looked at him, "Speak."
Yu Wenye said, "First, surrender, and stop any futile resistance."
Upon hearing this, those around imdiately showed anger, gripping their swords and ready to charge forward again, but Xiao Yuansui spread his arms to stop them. He stared coldly at Yu Wenye, "And?"
Yu Wenye said, "Second, fight with here."
The people opposite seed eager to move again, but before they could act, he added, "However, the outco is—even if you manage to defeat and my n here, my remaining troops will soon co over and wipe you out."
"..."
"You can beco a dead hero."
Xiao Yuansui’s gaze flickered, and those around who heard these words felt a little uneasy in their hearts.
Indeed, even if they do kill Yu Wenye in front of them, Yu Wenye’s army of ten thousand has already entered Warehouse City. The people here have no chance of escaping alive.
After saying these words, Yu Wenye looked at them coldly, seemingly waiting for them to think it over.
And he also sensed that Shang Ruyi, who had been standing behind him all along, stepped forward one step, then another, and slowly ca to step ahead of him.
He frowned slightly, wanting to say sothing, when suddenly, Xiao Yuansui burst into laughter.
Yu Wenye imdiately lifted his head, focusing his gaze on him.
Only to see Xiao Yuansui slowly nod, "Yu Wenye is indeed Yu Wenye. Despite all these days and nights of guarding against you, I still couldn’t prevent it. Today, you’ve blocked all my escape routes."
Yu Wenye said, "Then what is your answer?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Ruyi stepped forward again.
Yu Wenye was startled, just about to say sothing, when he heard Xiao Yuansui suddenly look at him, the corner of his mouth curving slightly upwards, "But I may not be without a way out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold flash like lightning shot out from behind him!
