Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*≧∀≦*)

A while later, the silverfox-clad man and several of his trusted subordinates appeared next to the snowdrift where the person had stumbled.

His subordinates cleared the snow, revealing the intact body of Tian Lang.

He knelt beside another corpse, his head touching the ground, slightly turning his cheek to the right.

This action prevented him from fully exerting his weight on the other person, but it was still quite heavy.

Everyone was stunned.

Tian Lang was the top expert under His Lordship’s command. Didnʼt he escort Princess Ningʼan to escape?

How could he have died here?

And who was the person who died alongside him?

The silverfox-clad man furrowed his brow, his incredulous gaze fixed on Tian Langʼs dead body.

His subordinates understood why His Lordship showed such an expression. Tian Lang was a death warrior purchased by His Lordship at a high price from the nobility of the State of Yan. He was by no means comparable to ordinary death warriors.

Even the Dragon Shadow Guards of the State of Zhaoʼs imperial family couldnʼt last ten moves against Tian Lang. The person capable of killing Tian Lang was in the State of Yan. No one in the State of Zhao, State of Chen, or any other states could hurt him!

A frost settled on the handsome face of the silverfox-clad man. He coldly said to his subordinates, ”See who the other deceased person is.”

”Yes!”

One of his trusted subordinates crouched down and cleared the snow from the personʼs face.

It was a young and tender face, with a red birthmark on the left cheek.

The silverfox-clad man immediately recognized this birthmark.

”It’s him?”

He was astonished.

The silverfox-clad man had clashed with Gu Jiao before, on the icy river where she had injured him with the red-tasseled spear.

And before that, Gu Jiao had broken into the Prefectʼs Mansion in Lingguan City with another black-clad man, creating chaos and rescuing Old Marquis Dingʼan of the State of Zhao by using black gunpowder to break through.

“My Lord! Heʼs still breathing!” Exclaimed one of the trusted subordinates in utter shock.

He had initially intended to separate Tian Lang from this small corpse, but as soon as his hand touched Gu Jiaoʼs face, he sensed something amiss. He then checked the other partyʼs breath.

Though faint, the breath was undeniably present!

“My Lord, Yi Wang has regained consciousness. He wants me to find out what happened here.” A guard from Yi Wangʼs side came over and said.

The silverfox-clad man looked thoughtfully at the unconscious Gu Jiao and said, “Tian Lang is dead. Weʼve just caught the culprit.”

The silverfox-clad man returned to the carriage.

In addition to him, there was also an unconscious soldier in armor brought onto the carriage.

Yi Wang winced in pain, covering the wound on his shoulder, and asked, “Who is he?”

“The one who killed Tian Lang.” Replied the silverfox-clad man.

Inspecting Gu Jiaoʼs figure and her armor that had no distinctive markings, Yi Wang asked, “What? Him? A foot soldier?”

“He is from the State of Zhao.” The silverfox-clad man stated.

Having just faced a defeat, Yi Wangʼs expression darkened at the mention of the State of Zhao. He asked in a deep voice, “Is he from the Gu Family Army?”

The silverfox-clad man casually tossed Gu Jiao onto the carpet in the carriage and lightly kicked her feet away, “Look at the armor. Itʼs not theirs.”

The Gu Family Army wore silver armor. This ladʼs armor resembled that of the Tang Family Archers, but without the Tang Familyʼs emblem.

Yi Wang looked at Gu Jiao strangely, “Youʼre saying he killed Tian Lang? How is that possible? He looks so young!”

The silverfox-clad man smirked, “Uncle, do you remember the young man I mentioned who had connections with the State of Yan?”

“Are you saying that person is him?” Yi Wang furrowed his brow.

“My Lord! His belongings have been found!”

One of the trusted subordinates called out outside the carriage, presenting a heavy back basket and a red-tasseled spear.

The silverfox-clad man took them over.

As the curtain was momentarily lifted, the freezing wind and snow rushed in. Yi Wang shivered from the cold, his brow furrowing even tighter.

The silverfox-clad man closed the curtain and rummaged through the back basket.

Inside the basket were only a few dry rations and a shabby little medicine chest, leaving the silverfox-clad man somewhat disappointed.

He had hoped to find something valuable.

Carelessly, he placed the back basket near Gu Jiao and fondly caressed the red-tasseled spear in his hand. Addressing Yi Wang, he said, ”Uncle, this is the weapon of Xuanyuan Li, the renowned Godly General from the State of Yan.”

”So ugly?” Yi Wang winced at the large red flowers and pigtails on the red-tasseled spear, which stung his eyes.

The silverfox-clad man chuckled lightly, disregarding the ugliness of the weapon. ”I inquired with the State of Chen a few days ago. This red-tasseled spear of Xuanyuan Li was given by the Emperor of the State of Yan to the Emperor of the State of Chen as a birthday present. Later, during the conflict between the State of Chen and the State of Zhao, Marquis Xuanping of the State of Zhao seized it. When the two states negotiated for peace, the State of Chen sought to reclaim it, but Marquis Xuanping refused.”

Yi Wang contemplated for a moment, finding the explanation reasonable, ”Hmm, that person would do such a thing.”

That guy was a shameless one.

After a pause, Yi Wang asked, ”So, is he from the Xuanyuan Family or from Marquis Xuanpingʼs Estate?”

Shaking his head, the silverfox-clad man replied, ”I’m not sure for the time being. Not only did he acquire this spear but he also possesses black gunpowder. He must have strong ties to the State of Yan.”

”So heʼs from the Xuanyuan Family then.” Yi Wang concluded in his heart, then his expression changed drastically. ”Weʼve captured someone from the Xuanyuan Family! If they find out, theyʼll send a hundred thousand cavalry to crush us into minced meat!”

The silverfox-clad man said with a smile, ”Uncle, if he were truly important to the Xuanyuan Family, the State of Yan would have sent reinforcements long ago.”

Yi Wang pondered and agreed with the logic, but then he asked, ”Then… Why didnʼt you kill him? He killed Tian Lang. Arenʼt you going to seek revenge for Tian Lang??”

Caressing the red-tasseled spear in his hand, the silverfox-clad man replied, ”Tian Lang is already dead. Even if I seek revenge for him, Tian Lang wouldnʼt come back to life. But if this young man could kill Tian Lang, it means heʼs more formidable than Tian Lang. Uncle, if heʼs willing to submit to us, wouldnʼt we have a second Tian Lang?”

Yi Wang hesitated for a moment before asking, ”What if he refuses?”

The silverfox-clad man smirked confidently, ”Heʼs a soldier from the State of Zhao and saved Old Marquis Dingʼanʼs life. If we use him to threaten the Gu Family Army, Uncle, how do you think the Gu Family Army will react?”

Yi Wang stared at the young man lying on the ground, feeling a bit uncertain, ”I feel... itʼs better to kill him.”

The silverfox-clad man laughed, ”Uncle, donʼt worry. Frozen like this, he poses no threat.”
