The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 778 - 364: Slaughtering a City for Ye Qichi (Second Update)
The world suddenly fell silent again.
Gone was the sound of armies clashing beneath the city walls.
Gone was the sound of bodies falling and colliding with the ground.
There was only.
The sound of a heart, bit by bit, shattering.
Bit by bit, the pain unbearable.
Xiao Jinxing was protected and pulled back from the city wall by Xiao Wu and other personal soldiers.
Bai Mowan was now covered in blood.
Stabbed by Xiao Jinsen too many times.
Enduring the pain in her body, she stood up from the ground.
Her white clothes were now a vivid red.
Step by step, she struggled toward Xiao Jinxing.
She knew his sorrow.
Even though she had no feelings for Ye Qichi, even with jealousy and hatred, Ye Qichi’s sacrifice still touched her soul at this moment. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
She never really thought that Ye Qichi would willingly give up his life.
Would truly.
Save her.
With great difficulty, she reached Xiao Jinxing’s side, looking at his tear-streaked face.
Ever since she had known him, from her childhood to now, she had never seen him cry.
No matter what kind of hurt he suffered, he would only endure it.
Endure it with all his might.
Without crying or fussing.
Not even a whimper would escape him.
But now, because of Ye Qichi’s death, tears kept sliding down from his eyes.
And he himself was utterly unfeeling.
His gaze was hollow.
As if he couldn’t see anything before him.
In his eyes there was only the sight of Ye Qichi falling from the city wall, his last agonized and desperate smile.
"Jinxing," Bai Mowan was frightened by his appearance at this moment.
She called out to him tentatively.
Really, fearing that a louder voice would disturb him.
Fearing that he might do something reckless.
The voice of Bai Mowan.
Did not elicit any reaction from Xiao Jinxing.
As if he hadn’t heard at all.
"Jinxing..." Bai Mowan called him again.
Using her blood-covered hand to reach for him, trying to offer him support and comfort.
But the moment she touched Xiao Jinxing’s hand.
Xiao Jinxing suddenly raised his arm.
With a forceful move.
He pushed Bai Mowan away.
The strength was even somewhat great.
Bai Mowan’s already weak body was pushed by Xiao Jinxing and she harshly fell to the ground.
More blood flowed from her body.
She cried out loud.
It was really, unbearably painful.
Y Xiao Jinxing, however, did not even glance at her.
The emptiness in his eyes.
It’s hard to know if it’s hatred, hurt, or pain!
Song Yanqing was finally escorted onto the city wall amid the cruel battlefield.
Today, together with Yuan Wenkang, he led an army of over three hundred thousand for reinforcements and encirclement; the battle is still raging, with Yuan Wenkang commanding on the field, but given the current situation, Beimu’s army definitely had no chance for a resurgence. So, he let his trusted aides escort him to the Prince.
He came to see if the Prince managed to save the Princess and Bai Mowan.
He saw the Prince.
Saw the Prince, his heart ashen as though dead.
He then glanced at Bai Mowan.
Seeing Bai Mowan lying on the ground, bloodied.
Yet the Prince seemed not to give her a single glance.
So.
Where is the Princess?!
Song Yanqing searched carefully to the left and right for a long time.
The Princess really wasn’t there anymore.
The King of Chu was gone as well.
Was it a kidnapping, or... did they really meet with disaster?
Song Yanqing’s heart suddenly ached.
If the Princess really died...
Really died...
He didn’t know how he would bear it.
His eyes turned to Xiao Wu.
Song Yanqing now didn’t even dare to ask the Prince.
The Prince at this moment.
Despite still appearing tall and valiant.
Seemed so fragile, as if he would collapse at a touch.
Xiao Wu roughly wiped away his tears.
He too saw Song Yanqing’s gaze.
He pointed outside the city wall.
He was already choking up so much that he couldn’t even speak.
Song Yanqing understood in a flash.
The Princess must have fallen from the city tower.
He turned around abruptly and rushed downwards.
He remembered the Princess’s body was different from ordinary people’s.
Last time, she was clearly severely injured, but in just one night, not even a scar could be found.
Perhaps...
Perhaps the Princess did not die.
Even though the city walls were so high.
Even though ordinary people would be smashed to pieces if they fell from such a height.
He always felt that there were many miracles in this world.
That a miracle would exist for the Princess.
Song Yanqing quickly arrived at the base of the city wall.
There were corpses everywhere below the city wall.
And the smell of blood was everywhere.
Could it be that when the Princess fell,
Just by chance,
She fell onto a cushion of human flesh?
Song Yanqing’s steps were fast and somewhat disordered.
Finally, he reached the place of the fall.
And then he saw, before his eyes, a shocking scene.
How could this be...
How could it have turned into this!
Song Yanqing’s eyes instantly reddened.
He stood there as if petrified, motionless.
For how long, he wasn’t sure.
A line of people seemed to appear by his side.
Song Yanqing turned his gaze and then saw Xiao Jinxing.
Saw him coming to his side.
Just like him, looking at the scene before them; the two charred bodies had been so badly shattered that the corpses were incomplete and the sight was extremely tragic.
Battles raged on at this moment.
Indeed, there were piles of fire ignited by rockets everywhere.
And so, they were burned by the fire.
Song Yanqing even dared not turn his head to look back at the Prince.
He didn’t know how the Prince would feel upon seeing such a scene.
He was even thinking that the Prince had stood on the city wall for so long, motionless, because he was giving himself one last hope.
Hope.
That Ye Qichi was not dead.
Hoping her unique body could offer her a sliver of life.
But now.
All hope was shattered.
Burnt to this state, even a body of unusual structure, couldn’t possibly come back to life.
The Prince really lost the Princess...
This time, completely and utterly.
"Didn’t she say she was a fox spirit?" Song Yanqing suddenly heard Xiao Jinxing’s voice in his ear.
A voice cold and full of despair.
Song Yanqing’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
"Aren’t demons not supposed to die?" Xiao Jinxing said to the two corpses.
After he finished speaking.
He waited for a long time.
As if waiting for her to answer him.
"Ye Qichi, you really are a liar," Xiao Jinxing’s voice sounded choked up.
He clearly cursed her, but he himself was in extreme grief.
"And I am utterly unforgivable!"
Xiao Jinxing suddenly turned around.
And left.
He just walked towards the cruel battlefield behind him.
The mad clamor of fighting pierced the night air, one after another.
It was destined to be.
A cruel night.
It was also destined to be a sorrowful ending.
...
The two armies battled.
They fought for three days and nights.
The Bai Family army led by Xiao Jinxing slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Beimu Country’s warriors.
The Beimu army raised the white flag, choosing to surrender.
At that time.
The whole Muge City, both inside and out, was already covered in corpses.
The blood painted the city, the heavens and the earth in a shade of red.
At that time.
Xiao Jinxing slaughtered an entire city.
Within Muge City, there was not a single survivor.
Whether they were soldiers of Beimu’s army or innocent civilians!
From that point on.
Muge City, now solely inhabited by the dead, became the accompaniment to Ye Qichi’s burial, became Ye Qichi’s mausoleum.
