Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
By the first night of the 12th lunar month, the pile of taels of silver in the front yard of the Residence of Dragon King was still not cleared yet The thick snow accumulated had frozen into a hard shell around the taels, and the Red Raven Flag drooped fro beside it
On this day, the Wildhorse gang launched a major attack
Over the past 10 days or so, both parties had suffered heavy losses The Wildhorse gang had around 50 casualties, Tianshan Sect lost around 30 men, and about 10 swordsmen from the Great Snowmountain were killed
There was little left for the Dragon King to use
The Tianshan Sect beca to unite most macheteht head to head with the enen with the founder’s strategy Moreover, ru’s machete skills also caused several Sect ” The blacks, had speciallyto explain the difficult situation in Tianshan Sect “We cannot continue like this We decided to withdraw ourthe machetemen It’s okay for me since my identity has been exposed, but the otherany He should be the one apologizing instead, as he had never told Tianshan Sect that the last few days of killings were just a ploy to lure out the enemy
Only fewer than 50 machetemen’s identities in Tianshan Sect had been exposed Most of thee in the east and did not station the in the west
Only Lin Xiaoshan and the few otherto live and die together with the the Dragon King”
Mr Hong was unable to change Lin Xiaoshan’s decision He sighed, wanting to say so, but he are that the current situation was beyond his control He could only leave Lin Xiaoshan with a short sword that he , “It’s not a precious saber, but it has never been used before Let it be stained with blood”
The Great Snowmountain camp sent another 40 swords more than this would raise objections fro force in the Residence of Dragon King was only about 50 people or so
Gu Shenwei then sum fu: the slaves were sent away; Fang Wenshi+ and Xu Xiaoyi took Jiang and the rest to stay in North City With the protection from the Special Emissary from the Central Plains, they would be relatively safe
Xu Xiaoyi trusted the Dragon King but Fang Wenshi+ was nervous and uneasy His fate was tied firether for better or for worse He asked, “You knohat to do, right, Dragon King?”
Gu Shenwei nodded Fang Wenshi+ was able to talk eloquently in iue for the interests of the Great Snowmountain, but he was not suited to be involved in close combat battles like these Gu Shenas very aware of this point and did not tell Fang Wenshi+ about his plan of luring the enemy
The last person he dealt as Xu Yanwei, “It’s either you go back to the Golden Roc Fort, or leave together with your brother No o, you are not allowed to enter the Residence of Dragon King ever again”
“You want to banish me? Why?” Xu Yanwei asked in surprise She felt that she did not deserve this treatment
“No reason why This isbut he finally made up his mind to sever all ties with the Golden Roc Fort
Seeing the Dragon King expressionless, Xu Yanwei felt nervous It was under this gaze, years ago, that she o back to the Golden Roc Fort That woo to North City either”
A killing intent flashed through Gu Shenwei’s eyes Xu Yanwei shrank involuntarily and hurriedly said, “I think I will go to Pleasure Alley instead You ive me a few thousand taels of silver I shall continue to collect intelligence for you there”
“Whatever, go take it froht that perhaps Xu Yanould still be useful in a way
Xu Yanwei cheerfully went to the front yard Knowing that she was not strong enough, she quickly chose two slaves who had been dismissed to pry away the snow and break apart the taels
Xu Xiaoyi followed his sister and urged her quietly, hoping to change herfully with their hearts and did not think that there were any risks in this final battle
But Gu Shenas not entirely sure
The Wildhorse gang was more powerful than what Gu Shenwei had initially esti them were about 20 to 30 experts in Joy Pavilion, and people in the Residence of Dragon King were definitely not theirdozens of lives, Gu Shenwei placed all his hopes of defeating the Wildhorse gang on New Moon Hall
Because of the betrayal of the black-, there was a possibility that Golden Roc Fort had discovered the existence of New Moon Hall This piece of neould naturally reach Wildhorse as well But Maid Lotus and her e; they were in possession of Wayless Book and had practiced it for three years, naturally, a group of experts that the world had not yet seen were cultivated
Not even Gu Shenwei had seen their skills
The greater hidden danger was Maid Lotus Gu Shenwei felt a pang of sorrow every time he saw her, but the chilliness in his Dantian reain
The New Moon Hall’s a over the Golden Roc Fort Deliberately planting their men within every force only er schereed to cooperate with New Moon Hall for theabout it over the next few days In the end, he concluded that it was better to keep Maid Lotus close rather than letting her hide in the shadows
The attack toward the Wildhorse gang was a test: If New Moon Hall illing to go all out, their cooperation could still continue for a period of time, or even until the fall of Golden Roc Fort
Tianshan Sect had ceased all activities and retreated fro did not accept it immediately Instead, they sent people to assassinate several hts on the Residence of Dragon King
