The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 770 - 356: Meeting at the City Walls (Nine Updates)
This statement, not only made Ye Qichi’s chest slightly catch.
It also elicited an evident reaction from Bai Mowan.
With effort, she propped herself up on her arms and lifted her head.
"Getting interested now?" Xiao Jinsen naturally noticed Bai Mowan’s movement and said coldly, "Don’t rush, you will see them in a moment."
Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan also tried hard to maintain their composure, without any outward reaction.
"Moreover, there will be a good show today! Not only can we see if Xiao Jinxing will really abandon power for love, but also witness..." Xiao Jinsen intentionally left his sentence unfinished.
His eyes brimming with malice and excitement.
Ye Qichi could entirely imagine the bad blood simmering in Xiao Jinsen’s belly!
"Take them away!" Xiao Jinsen suddenly ordered.
Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan, each restrained by two personal soldiers, followed behind Xiao Jinsen.
The two of them were brought together, onto the city walls of Muge City.
Above, the skulls of special forces were still hanging.
Ye Qichi felt a slight sourness in her nose.
Grieving amidst her restraint.
Xiao Jinsen seemed to glance at Ye Qichi and remained completely indifferent.
Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan stood at the highest point of the city wall.
Overlooking from a height.
And then they saw, the mighty forces of the Daxuan Kingdom.
Banners stretching for miles, an irresistible force!
Leading the troops at the forefront was Xiao Jinxing.
Clad in armor made of iron leaves, his waist bound by a belt with a golden beast face, a green fluff collar hanging down from above, diagonal leather boots below, and a helmet that glittered like frost and sunlight on his head.
A tall stature, with handsome cheeks.
His vigor was bursting forth, an aura majestic and proud, radiating an imposing air!
It had been three days.
Xiao Jinxing seemed to have not changed much.
As if the hostage situation involving Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan had not affected him in the slightest.
In his resolute gaze, there was only the conquest of Muge City.
He did not even glance at Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan once.
He did not see them standing at the highest point of the city wall, vulnerable and at the mercy of others.
In the end, Bai Mowan’s eyes reddened.
The grievances of many days, upon seeing Xiao Jinxing at this moment, instantly collapsed.
She thought she had lost the face to confront Xiao Jinxing again, yet at the sight of him, her yearning and reluctance filled her heart.
She truly had.
A tremendous obsession.
She really wanted to remedy the regrets of her past life.
But in this reborn life.
Xiao Jinxing had become, ever more distant from her.
Are some emotions truly only missed once they are gone?!
Even if given another chance, can things never return to their origin?!
As for Bai Mowan’s complex emotions, brimming with feelings.
Ye Qichi, on the other hand, was surprisingly calm.
After all, Xiao Jinxing did not come for her, and whether she saw him or not didn’t have much impact on her.
She was merely observing how many troops Xiao Jinsen had actually brought for the siege.
If all the forces were used to attack the city, once they entered Muge City, without the support of reinforcement troops, Xiao Jinsen would trap all of the Bai Family’s forces that entered, and ultimately, like catching turtles in a jar, even without using Bai Mowan as a threat, Xiao Jinxing would be defeated by Xiao Jinsen.
Even though Xiao Jinxing did indeed win in the original text.
But now, the plot has become too confusing.
There have been too many changes in the plot, at least in the original text, there was no scene where Xiao Jinsen and Mu Junze joined forces.
Ye Qichi remained calm.
Looking at the Bai Family’s army, an endless stretch of troops.
It was truly hard to estimate just how many men and horses there were.
All she could see was that Xiao Jinxing was followed by all the generals of the Bai Family, all present.
And at this moment, the army led by Xiao Jinxing had already arrived at the city and had made all the preparations for a forceful siege.
Crossbow, Arrow Tower, catapult, scaling ladders, battering rams... All ready to unleash, just waiting for the command.
Ye Qichi felt a slight tightness in her chest.
Xiao Jinxing wouldn’t really be so provoked by Xiao Jinsen and Mu Junze that he would attack the city in the most brutal and crude manner, right?! That would really be falling for Xiao Jinsen’s trick.
And indeed, Xiao Jinsen is extremely cunning.
Capturing Bai Mowan, on one hand, he indeed also wanted to make Xiao Jinxing give up the world without sacrificing a single soldier, to win a great victory. On the other hand, it was to cover up his real military tactics with Bai Mowan, making Xiao Jinxing mistakenly believe that his bargaining chip was only on Bai Mowan, but Xiao Jinsen’s biggest trump card was his military arrangements!
After all.
Who could really guarantee.
That Xiao Jinxing would actually give up the whole world for one woman.
Only Ye Qichi would believe it!
And once Xiao Jinxing fails to see through Xiao Jinsen, the army he leads to attack the city will be doomed!
But at this moment, even if Ye Qichi tells Xiao Jinxing now.
It’s all too late.
By the time Xiao Jinxing led his troops here, the outcome had already been determined.
If Xiao Jinxing sees through the ruse, without being influenced by Bai Mowan, he can win.
If he hasn’t seen through it, influenced or not, it would be a total collapse.
"Long time no see! My dear younger brother!" Xiao Jinsen suddenly spoke.
He stood with his hands behind his back at the highest point of the city wall, standing next to Bai Mowan and Ye Qichi, looking down at the imposing Xiao Jinxing with an evil face.
Xiao Jinxing was, of course, staring directly at Xiao Jinsen.
Without revealing any expression, his stern face did not betray any of his emotions.
"Are you satisfied with the gift I gave you?" Xiao Jinsen asked.
A smug and crafty smile made him seem incredibly arrogant and presumptuous.
A fierce fire finally ignited uncontrollably in Xiao Jinxing’s eyes.
"The white cloth I sent you last night, and the skulls of these brave warriors waiting for you now, are all carefully prepared by me, do you like them?!" Xiao Jinsen deliberately provoked Xiao Jinxing.
Releasing all the repression and anger that had accumulated over time because of Xiao Jinxing.
He had long awaited this day.
He had long awaited this day of facing Xiao Jinxing head-on!
He wanted to personally defeat Xiao Jinxing and trample him underfoot, never to rise again.
Xiao Jinxing’s steely voice asked him word by word, "Fighting for an enemy nation, do you not feel shame? Killing our country’s soldiers, do you not feel guilty? Humiliating our country’s generals, are you not embarrassed? I am deeply ashamed to have a brother like you, and Daxuan Kingdom is disgraced to have a prince like you!"
Xiao Jinsen’s face turned iron blue from Xiao Jinxing’s sarcasm.
His fists clenched, veins popping.
In front of both armies, Xiao Jinxing did not leave any face for either side.
Suppressing great anger, he said through gritted teeth, "Xiao Jinxing, I was forced into this dilemma, wasn’t it you who caused it?! Now what right do you have to stand on a high moral ground and accuse me of my crimes! If it wasn’t for you taking away everything that belonged to me, time after time, would I end up like this? Would I be standing here, killing my own people!"
"Great benevolence and righteousness?" Xiao Jinxing scoffed.
His smile was filled with a cruel intent.
Today would be the day to truly resolve the years of grievances between the two brothers.
