Zhou Chongyue was stunned in an instant!

This boy… turned out to be someone from the Xuanyuan Family!

Then it was no longer strange that he had lost to him.

No, it was still strange.

First, this kid was far too young, appearing to be only twelve or thirteen years old, and second, he had never heard that the Xuanyuan Family had produced such a formidable young warrior.

There was a reason for this.

He had previously been stationed in the State of Zhao, and it was only this year that he entered the Black Wind Cavalry.

Although he was a direct descendant of the Xuanyuan Family, Xuanyuan Qi had not given him any special treatment, and he had started out as the lowest-ranking cavalry soldier.

He had been assigned under Li Shen’s command and had always obeyed Li Shen’s deployments, charging into battle time after time, and this was the very first time he had received command authority to lead troops on a long expedition to assist Cangzhou.

Therefore, it was not strange that Zhou Chongyue had never heard of him.

In fact, not to mention Zhou Chongyue, even Guo Mang and the others were completely stunned.

Xuanyuan Qi had treated his own child with such excessive and unforgiving harshness that it bordered on cruelty, and in order to prevent anyone from secretly showing him favoritism, he had not even permitted the boy to use his real name, so even within the military camp he was still addressed as Jing Kong.

Today, solely to intimidate this group of insolent fools, he had revealed his true identity.

The effect was indeed excellent.

Zhou Chongyue froze, and the remaining five thousand rebel soldiers also stood in shock, and for a moment, not a single one of them dared to charge forward.

Zhou Chongyue, who had dared to raise troops in rebellion, possessed a certain tenacious mindset after all, and he quickly forced himself to recover from his astonishment.

He stared intensely at the young boy who had subdued him with a red-tasseled spear, and after gritting his teeth, he said, “You are lying! I have never once heard that the Xuanyuan Family had such a person! Do you think that by pretending to be someone of the Xuanyuan Family, you can scare me?!”

His words were spoken with firm and powerful emphasis, filled with force and vigor, and he was saying them not only to reassure himself but also to rekindle the morale of his own side.

Sure enough, after hearing his words, the rebel soldiers gradually began to look at the silver-armored youth on horseback with doubt.

Zhou Chongyue seized the advantage and continued pressingly, letting out a cold snort as he said, “The Xuanyuan Family was annihilated many years ago, and only the Supreme Commander Xuanyuan Qi and his legitimate son Xuanyuan Zheng survived! So where did you come from, you wild brat?”

In truth, he had heard vague rumors that a child of the Xuanyuan Family’s main branch had survived, but that child rarely appeared in public, and there were all sorts of rumors circulating about him, especially when the stories spread to Cangzhou, where they gradually turned into claims that the child’s existence was nothing more than a baseless rumor.

At a moment like this, attempting to defend oneself, regardless of whether the claim was true or false, would inevitably place one in a disadvantageous position.

Guo Mang looked worriedly at the silver-armored youth on horseback, fearing that he would fall for Zhou Chongyue’s provocation.

Yet unexpectedly, the youth refused to be manipulated by Zhou Chongyue at all. He stared coldly at his defeated opponent and said with unrestrained arrogance and dominance, “I will give you two choices. One, surrender. Two, die. If you do not answer before I count to three, I will assume you have chosen the second path.”

“One.”

“Two.”

Just as he was about to speak the number three, Zhou Chongyue suddenly scooped up a handful of snow from the ground and hurled it fiercely at Xuanyuan Xi!

And at that very same moment, a hidden expert positioned behind Xuanyuan Xi leaped into the air, gripping a curved blade tightly in both hands, and without a word attempted to ambush Xuanyuan Xi from behind!

“Watch out!” Guo Mang, who was directly facing Xuanyuan Xi, saw the ambush behind Xuanyuan Xi with utmost clarity, yet he was too far away and injured, leaving him no time to intervene.

Xuanyuan Xi’s lips curved slightly. “Heh, insignificant tricks.”

His long spear moved like a dragon, and with a twist above his head, he thrust it coldly backward without even turning around, piercing straight through the attacker’s heart!

As for the snow Zhou Chongyue had flung at him, it had not even traveled halfway before it was blown away entirely by the fierce exhale of the warhorse beneath the youth!

Zhou Chongyue’s entire body trembled: What the hell! What horse can blow away snow?!

“Three.” Xuanyuan Xi finished counting, and he looked calmly at the utterly dumbfounded Zhou Chongyue. “It seems you have chosen the second path.”

No… I… I… I didn’t even have time to speak——

The shimmering cold spear descended, and the rebel commander’s head rolled heavily to the feet of an archer.

The archer collapsed in terror!

Everyone shuddered uncontrollably!

“Revenge for General Zhou——”

Someone in the crowd shouted this half-completed sentence, but before it could finish, the sound of attack horns suddenly echoed not far away, and countless horses charged forward in a roaring tide. One cavalryman rode at the very front, and on his shoulder he carried a battle flag emblazoned with a soaring eagle, snapping fiercely in the wind and snow.

That was the command banner of the Xuanyuan Family!

The iron cavalry of the Xuanyuan Family had truly arrived!

The young boy who had slain Zhou Chongyue had not lied!

He really was a member of the Xuanyuan Family!

With their leader dead and the court’s reinforcements having arrived, the rebels’ morale shattered completely, and their fighting spirit collapsed. No one could remember who was the first to flee, but in any case, before the iron cavalry of the Xuanyuan Family could even finish trampling across the mountaintop, every single rebel had already scattered in utter ruin.

Guo Mang finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Thank heavens, the Black Wind Cavalry had arrived at just the right moment.

He was just about to personally witness the heroic bearing of the Black Wind Cavalry, but unexpectedly, he caught sight of a familiar face.

That fellow carrying the command banner. Yes, you! It really was you!

Was that not Erdan?

Erdan was a deputy general under Guo Mang’s command, his surname was Zhang and his given name Huan, while Erdan was his childhood nickname.

Guo Mang rubbed his eyes, thinking he must have seen incorrectly, but before he could confirm anything, all the cavalrymen who had been shouting as they charged were already galloping right up in front of him.

At that moment, he was utterly dumbfounded.

How could this possibly be the Xuanyuan Family’s Black Wind Cavalry? They were clearly just the leftover soldiers he had left behind in the camp!

He turned his head and stared blankly at Xuanyuan Xi. “M-my Lord, what… what is going on here?”

He did not know Xuanyuan Xi’s official rank, but judging by the imposing and awe-inspiring manner he carried himself, he must have been above him.

Xuanyuan Xi casually wiped the blood from his red-tasseled spear with a handkerchief, and said in a calm and breezy tone, “Oh, I borrowed your men.”

“And your own men?” Guo Mang asked.

“Just myself.” Xuanyuan Xi replied.

Guo Mang staggered and nearly fell over. “W-what do you mean just yourself? Did the court… send only you alone to reinforce us?”

“That’s not quite it. They sent quite a few, but they were all blocked by the heavy snow.” Only he and Little Eleven had managed to break through.

Guo Mang swallowed hard and mustered his courage to ask, “May I ask how many soldiers the court sent as reinforcements?”

Xuanyuan Xi said, “Two hundred.”

Guo Mang’s eyes widened. “O-only two hundred? That… that cannot be enough! They should have sent at least ten or twenty thousand!”

Xuanyuan Xi sheathed his now perfectly clean red-tasseled spear, gave him a strange look, and asked, “Why would transporting grain require ten or twenty thousand soldiers?”

Guo Mang was struck by yet another wave of shock. “You… so you… you were only escorting grain?”

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, ”Scared?”

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, ”The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?”

Shi Dai replied, ”Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, ”Donʼt abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, ”Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah.”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasnʼt finished his lines yet though…
