With his cheeks flushi+ng red and his chest being pushed down upon, Shulitu had never felt so tired, and neither had he ever been so persistent in resisting

He refused to enter the tent, and stubbornly insisted on facing the unpredictable Court Attendants soldiers right in the open, together with several dozen officers The torches were blazing all around the about the fate of the hostages right in front of them

The Court Attendants Army were not as united in mind as a piece of iron board as many believed The other 10,000 men corps had returned and every corps had their own opinions that differed slightly fro king Shulitu and the wing guard Silver Condor should be killed or spared So them because Shulitu had protected those aristocratic military officers and Silver Condor was partly responsible for the fiasco with the counterfeit reht they shouldn't kill arding the young king - as the great grandson of the Khan and who hadn't reached adulthood yet - his blood shouldn't be spilled

Shulitu believed that his presence would offer some confidence as well as pressure to his advocates, so he refused to enter the tent Once the parties involved were no longer present, people werecruel decisions - this was one of the lessons he had learned in life

His grandfather had once held the intention of killing him, and it was only at the last ed his 's military counselor He always refused to observe the battlefield hi so was that this was the only way he could continue to make decisions that affected the lives of thousands of soldiers without hesitation

Shulitu had a sense of duty He turned his head to glance at the officers behind hiure so out”

Azheba and the others bowed to pay their respects - this was not a cowards' iiance but rather their respect for a member of the Khan's family, and this twelve-year-old kid was qualified to be an excellent member of it

Mo Lin looked at the crowd of soldiers hispering furtively to each other, believing that their denate was co to an end He bent at the waist and whispered to Shulitu, ”Stay close to me”

”But…” Shulitu wanted to believe that the Court Attendants soldiers would coht - those soldiers who had hoped to spare the young king were now turning away to avoid eye contact with him

”It won't be necessary,” he said He had rateful for Mo Lin's favorable intention ”I've always been prepared for death I'd rather die together with a group of the rassland than die from a cup of poisonous wine alone”

Mo Lin was surprised This kid, whose fate was to be a puppet, still carried a kind of noble dignity within him and didn't abandon his sanity He bent forward and whispered, ”Your Highness rehtly surprised, then he smiled

Azheba and several other officers walked in front of the young king They all sensed danger and they couldn't let a kid be the first one to face it

So to leave by yourself and leave the officers behind?”

”No,” Shulitu uttered one terse word

Rather than persuading him hypocritically, the officers whipped out their sabers siardless of however many sabers they had, they wouldn't be able to defend theainst a torrential rain of arrows They were just sy attitude

The groups of soldiers started backing away like the tide, then they drew their bows and nocked their arrows all at the saht at thisWenshi+

The look in the Court Attendants soldiers' eyesWenshi+ nervous It contained a unique apathy that was liable to change at any rimace, totally unpredictable and undetectable

That hy Fang Wenshi+ ad so htly and continued walking without looking at anyone; if soently push hih the crowd All the while, the soldiers ere touched by him would always jump aside like they had been burned by fire and then started whispering and pointing with their comrades

Han Fen had dressed herself in a standard soldier's unifor his manner and expressions at every twist and turn

The ih the crowds, and those bohich had just been raised were lowered, but none of the soldiers put their arroay

Gu Shenwei stood between the soldiers and the officers First, he nodded at Shulitu and the others, then he turned and faced the soldiers He was just about to speak when someone on the opposite side asked, ”Is it true that the Khan burned an arrow in your hand?”

”You should asked those who saith their own eyes”

The croent silent Then an arroas shot at the Dragon King The arroas not fast and lacked strength, so Gu Shenwei easily grabbed it with his hand That , ”Show us one more time”

Gu Shenwei held the arrow stick in both hands before snapping it in half gently ”Neither the Khan nor I are juggling entertainers”

That man ed Then another man yelled out, ”It's true I saith 's hand, yet he reon King's hands - they were indeed unharon King This is the Khan's command We must obey,” the next man said in a more respectful tone

”Don't believe the rumors so easily If the Khan issued a command from the Heavens, there should have been a vision, but I saw nothing”

”The fake body was a vision, and the officers' turning themselves in was also a vision”

The voice received a lot of responses and Gu Shenwei felt that the croas about to go out of control His influence was not powerful enough to manipulate the minds of tens of thousands of soldiers

He opened his ariant roc, yet a shrill cry suddenly came from behind him

Gu Shenwei turned in surprise, and saw that the officers were running towards the young king Shulitu in panic
