Chapter 1004: Dalun Ruozan, the Oriole Stalking Behind! (1/2)

”Hah!”

After some time, Duwu Sili suddenly chuckled sinisterly.

”Boy, you think too highly of yourself! Correct! The man you want truly is in my hands, but for what reason do you think I should hand him over? You only brought five thousand soldiers with you and want to take someone from me? Isn't that a little too simpleminded? Aren't you worried that I will join with the Tibetans and kill you and your Wushang Cavalry?”

With these last words, the already seething killing intent on Duwu Sili's body instantly swelled. This nearly tangible killing intent shrouded the air, causing the surrounding temperature to drop.

”Hahaha…”

Wang Chong was not only unafraid of Duwu Sili's words, he even laughed.

”If this were really the case, Dalun Ruozan, Huoshu Huicang, and Dusong Mangpoje would have already showed up, not waited this long. If my guess is correct, by hiding the fact that you were after the formation phenomena from them, you've already caused cracks to appear in your alliance. Otherwise, why would you lead your army to set up camp here alone!”

Buzz!

These words seemed to give Duwu Sili a sharp jab, and his entire body trembled. Although Wang Chong had only been speaking casually, his words had struck true. For his own gain, he had entered the battlefield alone while hiding his true goal: the formation phenomena. But afterward, he was exposed by Dalun Ruozan, and though the Tibetans had not directly accused him of anything, their relationship was clearly very awkward.

This was obvious purely from the fact that the two sides had set up their camps in separate areas.

”This brat… what a vicious gaze.”

Duwu Sili began to unwittingly clench his fists, his joints cracking as his desire to kill Wang Chong increased.

Wang Chong's gaze was far too sharp. Duwu Sili felt like he could hide nothing from him.

”Brat, you're too proud!” Duwu Sili harshly shot back. No matter what Wang Chong guessed, he would never admit to it. ”Regardless of what happened between me and the Tibetans, don't forget that it's that Great Minister of Ü-Tsang who wants to kill you the most. Heheh, if he knew that you only brought five thousand soldiers, what do you think he would do?”

Behind Wang Chong, Li Siye, Kong Zi-an, and Huang Botian all grimaced at these words. Although the Wushang Cavalry were one of the strongest forces in the world and feared no one, the combined might of four mighty individuals like Duwu Sili, Huoshu Huicang, Dusong Mangpoje, and Dalun Ruozan was something that even they would find hard to stop.

”Interesting. The art of war is the art of deception. Great General is correct. Dalun Ruozan truly might appear here. But how do you know that I only brought five thousand Wushang Cavalry?”

Wang Chong faintly smiled, his expression brimming with confidence.

Duwu Sili grimaced at these words, and his gaze unconsciously flitted past Wang Chong and peered into the darkness. He had believed that Wang Chong had only brought his five thousand soldiers, but if Gao Xianzhi and Cheng Qianli had also come, the situation was completely different.

He needed to rethink his plans.

But when he saw that callous ridicule in Wang Chong's eyes, Duwu Sili understood and flew into a rage.

”Bastard! Do you really think I can't do anything to you! You value your subordinates, right? Don't think that I won't just kill him and have you leave with nothing!”

”You dare!”

Wang Chong's expression instantly chilled, and thick killing intent exploded from his eyes. Not even in front of a supreme Great General like Duwu Sili did he try to hide his desire to kill.

Clangclangclang! The Wushang Cavalry behind Wang Chong began to pull out their swords and aim them at Duwu Sili.

”Haha, just a nameless soldier. I, Duwu Sili, have killed countless such people. There is no one in this world that I would not dare to kill!”

Duwu Sili roared in laughter. At his level of cultivation, there was truly nothing he did not dare to do. He was even willing to lose his chance at the formation phenomena if needed.

After all, he just needed to capture another person.

”Bastard!”

Li Siye, Kong Zi-an, Cheng Sanyuan, and Su Shixuan all hollered in rage, their eyes turning red. Wang Chong's eyes were also roiling with killing intent, as not even he had expected to hear these words from Duwu Sili. But Wang Chong quickly managed to calm down.

”Very good!”

Wang Chong looked at Duwu Sili and sneered.

”It seems like we no longer have any need to talk. Since you've made your decision, we'll do as you say! But in the future, you will never have another chance to get the formation phenomena. Oh, and I forgot to tell you that I left some soldiers back in Qixi's City of Steel. Starting from now, for every 'Chen Bin' you kill, I'll kill ten thousand herdsmen on your Turkic steppe. If you kill two, twenty thousand Turks will be buried with them! Li Siye, let's go!”
