Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 841 - 629: Bloody Battle!

"Sec... ond... Brother...?"

Yu Wencheng widened his eyes in disbelief while the familiar figure seemed to be imprinted into his eyes by the suddenly scorching sunlight.

Although he dared not hope, or rather, deep down did not wish for it, that man standing on the slope, whose mere imposing stature exuded an indomitable will and a disdainful arrogance, was indeed his second brother, the current King Qin of the Dasheng Dynasty—Yu Wenye!

Just as Yu Wencheng’s murmured whisper sounded, Yu Wenye slowly raised his arm in the sunlight.

Then, he suddenly swung it.

Despite being so far away that only a blurry motion was visible, that unattainable swing seemed to stir up a storm in front of everyone. All felt an invisible pressure descending upon them, followed by the sharp whistling from the sky, piercing their eardrums.

Instinctively, Yu Wencheng looked up, but before he could discern what the sudden shadow looming overhead was, someone exclaimed—

"Watch out!"

However, those two words were immediately suppressed by the shadow.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be countless arrows shot from the sky, their cold gleams filling the air, carrying with them a true storm that sent the hair and beards of people flying. The soldiers of Yuan An who were stationed around, ready to ambush them, were caught off guard, with hundreds of soldiers instantly shot, rolling and struggling in the stirred-up dust and smoke, accompanied by the rising blood mist, while those who remained unscathed were dumbstruck by the scene!

For a moment, the air was filled with screams and shouts.

"It’s the Second Prince!"

Another shout rang out, but this time, the voice was more excited than the surrounding screams—Song Shiyuan saw the figure ahead, yelling in ecstatic delight—though knowing that by now, Yu Wenquan had already declared himself Emperor in Changa An City, and Yu Wenye had surely been crowned king, the soldiers accustomed to his authority and prowess in battle, who felt secure simply by seeing his figure, instinctively cried out the words "Second Prince."

Upon hearing Song Shiyuan’s voice, the soldiers charging out from behind him, who were prepared for a martyr’s death, suddenly grew excited, shouting to the soldiers still prepared to rush out from the valley behind: "Second Prince is here!"

"Second Prince has come to save us, we’re saved!"

"That’s great! That’s great!"

Listening to these cheers, Yu Wencheng’s face slowly darkened. Having just narrowly escaped Ghost Gate and been reborn, the joy upon seeing Yu Wenye was instantly overshadowed by another emotion. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

These people, despite never daring to defy him and yet none truly respecting him.

Despite his daily beatings and punishments failing to gain their trust, his second brother merely appearing stirred them into a frenzy, as though he was their savior, their god.

Ignoring the wound at the base of his thumb already split open to the palm, Yu Wencheng tightly gripped the knife in his hand.

Amidst the soldiers’ cheers, another volley of arrows descended like rain, cries of pain echoed again—this time aimed at those archers placed by Yuan An on the high ground. Many of them had just been shot; the remainder had started to take precautions. Yet, the arrows were a deadly weapon against the soldiers charging from the valley, but when shot at themselves, they became a lethal threat.

After a whiz of arrows slicing through the air, screams erupted. Those dozen archers tried to retaliate, but barely had they notched arrows onto their bowstrings, they were struck before they could draw the bow, rolling down from the slope.

Thus, the entire archery team was rendered useless.

Consequently, the soldiers preparing to ambush at the valley entrance lost their backup and long-range retaliation capabilities completely while the enemy’s arrow array continually attacked at them. In terror, they scattered, finding no escape route, while countless gleaming arrows descended, leaving them shot and humiliated on the ground.

In this way, the valley entrance was cleared out for a moment.

Song Shiyuan, though overjoyed, hadn’t forgotten his instincts as a soldier. He immediately turned back, shouting to the soldiers still preparing to rush out of the valley: "Charge out!"
