”Coe responded
Danian entered the roo Tiange, he bowed, ”A letter was shot in fro Lord”
Xiang Tiange took the carved arrow from Danian's hands and reenerals saw the black characters on the white paper but were unable to clearly see the contents of the letter
Xiang Tiange finished reading the letter very quickly and casually placed it at the side of his table
”Young Lord?” one of the generals inquired
”Lou Zigui's handwritten letter,” Xiang Tiange lowered his voice, ”He said that Xie Wenyuan has caused chaos in the dynasty, creating disaster and har innocent people And asked whether I would be at peace if I saved hienerals looked at each other in dismay
”Supreme Commander also asked me why I initially chose to join the rebel forces to revolt” Xiang Tiange continued, ”He also asked who killed h, Xie Wenyuan may be the one responsible He ui wants you to leave with the troops?” the experienced general questioned
Xiang Tiange raised his eyes to look at Danian Danian hurriedly lowered his head

”Young Lord!” Danian exclaio ahead and report the truth to e stood up and spoke
Danian's face reddened and he took a step back He forced hi Lord, Great Lord definitely has his reasons for doing things this way”

”At least we are on the sae patted Danian's shoulders and walked out of the rooround What should he do?!
Outside the city, Lou Zigui, Xu Feiyu and a few other generals had gathered together and sat on the ground
Looking at the Xiang City nearby, Xu Feiyu lowered his voice, ”Supree will leave?”
”The defense at the city gate tower is veryat the city tower of Xiang City ”If Xiang Tiange really wanted to fight this battle, the defense of the city toould not be this chaotic”
It was only then that Xu Feiyu carefully scanned his eyes across the city tower There were soldiers standing at the crenel of the gates holding swords and axes but no archers Hoould they hold the ithout archers? ”Could the archers be hiding fro to lure us for battle?”
Lou Zigui also observed the Xiang city gates ”I haven't seen a single general froht, ill prepare for ambush Based on the reaction of the city toill know Xiang Tiange's decision”
Xu Feiyu didn't understand how Lou Zigui could sit around casually while saying such words Lou Zigui's eyes continued to stare at the tower, observing its changes General Xu's heart trembled while he nodded his head, ”I understand”
