When Liu Yuan saw Xiang Yun and the rest of his men laughing so hard after hearing his threat, he was shocked for a moment. Then, he went completely mad!"What are all of you laughing for!" Liu Yuan screamed out!
However, in the face of his angry roar, Xiang Yun, Old Liang, and the rest of the guards all looked at him as if they were looking at a fool. That kind of att.i.tude and silent mockery simply made Liu Yuan even crazier than if he had been insulted!
"d.a.m.n it, a bunch of barbarians from the northwest, a bunch of unenlightened lunatics! I"ll kill all of you today so that you won"t be able to laugh anymore!"
"General Cheng, Wu Jiangjun, lead the guards and arrest all these barbarians. If anyone dares to resist, kill them on the spot. Also, that little maid in the carriage must get them all for me without leaving a single trace. I"ll get that woman right in front of that kid today!"At this moment, Liu Yuan could be said to have gotten angry from embarra.s.sment. He finally decided not to beat around the bush anymore and revealed a ferocious and savage expression!
The two deputy Generals received Liu Yuan"s order, but did not immediately act. Instead, they had expressions of embarra.s.sment on their faces.
"Young Master, before leaving, the county governor told us not to go against the forces of the northwest!"
Before the deputy general finished his sentence, Liu Yuan had already scolded him loudly: "Shut up, you two cowards. These country b.u.mpkins are considered some force in the Northwest, and now they are over a thousand miles away from the Southern Abyss Country. Since father is not here, I order you to do as I say.
The two deputy Generals immediately began sweating profusely. Of course, they did not pity Xiang Yun"s group. It was just that the latter"s many years of experience in the Southern Abyss Country had indistinctly told them that these people were not as simple as they seemed.
Especially that young man. He dared to insult Liu Yuan so brazenly after knowing his ident.i.ty. His ident.i.ty might not be as simple as they had guessed.
Therefore, the two of them disapproved of fighting in order to avoid getting into trouble. However, with Liu Yuan"s character, if he were to go against his orders this time, it was likely that he would not be able to return to the Southern Yuan County. The two of them could only brace themselves and issue orders to the guards of the convoy!
"Capture all of them. Pay attention, don"t hurt the woman in the carriage!"
"Yes sir!"
The soldiers immediately accepted the order as they unsheathed their swords and sabers, aggressively charging towards Xiang Yun"s group. In an instant, over a hundred people had swarmed forth, while Xiang Yun"s group, along with the grooms and servants, numbered less than twenty. The disparity in numbers was so great that one did not even need to look to know who would win.When Liu Yuan, who was standing on his palanquin, saw this scene, a joyful smile finally appeared on his twisted and furious face. He looked at Xiang Yun once more, wanting to see the terrified expression on his face.
However, the reality disappointed him once again. Even when he was surrounded by hundreds of soldiers, the youth standing on the small horse carriage didn"t even twitch his eyelids.Even the Lin Wan"er who was beside him, the seemingly weak young girl, didn"t have the slightest reaction. Instead, she calmly took some warm water from the carriage, unstoppered it and gave it to Xiang Yun with both hands. The latter took a sip from the water bottle before turning around and leading Lin Wan"er into the carriage.
Before entering the carriage, Xiang Yun turned around to look at Liu Yuan, a cold smile that made Liu Yuan"s heart tremble at the corner of his mouth.
As Xiang Yun and Lin Wan"er entered the carriage, he gently pulled open the curtains. Not long later, the curtains shook again, and Old Liang, with a look of panic on his face, climbed into the carriage, staring at Xiang Yun and Lin Wan"er as he spoke.
"Heh heh, Crown Prince, Lady Wan-Er, I"m sorry. I am too timid and afraid of blood. Come in and hide." As Old Liang spoke, he raised the wine gourd in his hand and gulped down a few mouthfuls of wine.
Just like this, Xiang Yun and Lin Wan"er chatted and laughed softly inside the carriage, Old Liang drinking wine with his head raised. The inside of the carriage was tranquil and peaceful, but the outside of the carriage rang out with a deafening explosion that was accompanied by countless tragic wails.
From time to time, the curtain of the carriage would be blown away by the invisible air currents. Through the gaps, it was possible to see the broken weapons that were flying everywhere, the bodies of the soldiers, and even the wailing horses!
This chaotic noise only lasted for less than a minute before a deep and low voice came from outside the carriage."Reporting to the crown prince, we have already finished packing them up. We can continue on our way."
Hearing this, the elder in the palanquin hurriedly lifted the carriage"s curtain and sat back on the deck, acting as a loyal groom. Xiang Yun and Lin Wan"er also stepped out of the horse station and looked around them.Seeing the tragic scene around him, Xiang Yun could not help but twitch his face slightly despite having expected it.
"F * ck, so f * cking tragic!" Although these guards had not tried to kill those soldiers, they had also failed to avoid breaking their bones, causing blood to splash out for three feet. If it were not for the b.l.o.o.d.y methods and scenes of the young prince oppressing others in his memories, he might really have been unable to bear this b.l.o.o.d.y scene at this moment.
At the moment, the hundreds of soldiers who had been charging forth with great momentum a moment ago were no longer around the carriage. Instead, they were replaced by countless men who were lying on the ground, howling and rolling.At this moment, all of them had broken armor, broken bones, broken tendons, mangled flesh, and were lying on the ground in a heap. Blood was flowing all over the ground, and all of them had collapsed to the ground, moaning and groaning.
Those who didn"t know about such a tragic scene would think that the bandits had robbed this group of people and that they had gone through an intense and b.l.o.o.d.y battle.
On the other hand, Xiang Yun"s caravan, which originally stood around the horse carriage, was still standing around the horse carriage. Aside from the bloodstains on their robes, the dozen or so people were all unharmed!
There was another difference from before. Previously, these people looked to be in low spirits as they hurried forward, but now, these people were standing tall and straight like swords that had left their sheaths. The sword Qi was very oppressive.
"How could it be like this? How could it be like this!" In front of the carriage, on the palanquin carried by 12 people, Liu Yuan, who was originally standing in front of the palanquin while hugging each other, pointing at everything in high spirits, had already fallen to the ground. It was unknown when, but his face was already filled with fear and shock.
Even the two deputy Generals in front of him were staring with widened eyes, as if they had seen a ghost!How could they have imagined that a group of only a dozen people, who didn"t even need a slightly larger carriage, would have so many martial arts experts on their poor, poor caravan?
They had seen the soldiers that they trained charge forward and capture this group of people. The dozen unarmed men, who looked like normal men from the countryside but were standing by the side of the carriage with no expressions, suddenly exploded!
These people threw out a punch with a flip of their hands, which landed on the tall body of the Cyan Mane Horse. The latter"s disproportionate punch actually caused the soldiers and horses to fly backwards as if they had been shot by a cannonball!
The figures of the dozen or so men suddenly flashed through the ranks of the soldiers like ghosts, and soon after, miserable screams could be heard. Countless soldiers" bodies were like kites with broken strings, dancing in the air, and many of them even had blades that burst apart, emitting a clanging sound!
The whole process of the battle, or in other words, the one-sided crushing, lasted less than a minute. The hundred soldiers were unable to stand up again.As for the dozen or so unarmed men, they had unknowingly returned to the surroundings of the carriage. If it weren"t for the blood splattering all over their bodies, everyone would have thought that they had never left their original places!
Such a terrifying and strange scene instantly caused the entire scene to turn eerie and quiet. Liu Yuan, the two deputy generals and the rest of the soldiers in the convoy were like c.o.c.ks that had their necks gripped.
Anyone could tell that the caravan in front of them was not as simple as they had imagined. Otherwise, how could they have such powerful guards? Their soldiers were too weak to withstand a single blow.
Each and every one of them had reached the level of a martial pract.i.tioner from Yiyun to Sanyun. It could be said that their lineup was rather luxurious, as they had a hundred soldiers. Even if they met an army with thousands of ordinary soldiers, they would still be able to fight.
However, the opposing side only had a dozen or so people, yet they were able to completely destroy their own forces in less than a minute. Moreover, they were not injured at all.
How could this not shock Liu Yuan and the rest? The two deputy Generals beside him had just barely reached the level of the Six Cloud Martial Disciple. Originally, Liu Yuan felt that he had someone he could rely on and that he could do whatever he wanted, but the dozen or so fellows in front of him were all not weaker than the two deputy Generals.
Xiang Yun looked at Liu Yuan, who had been scared out of his wits, and said with a smile, "This young master Liu, I was born not to like this kind of fighting scene, so I"m really sorry for being late."
As Xiang Yun said this, he cupped his hands in an apologetic gesture towards Liu Yuan. He then said to Liu Yuan, "Mister Liu, you just said that you not only want to kill me, but also take away my maids and even destroy my family. Have you changed your mind?"
"I …" Liu Yuan finally snapped out of his daze after hearing Xiang Yun"s words. He looked at the youth in front of him with a bewildered and doubtful expression, his heart hesitant."Young master, I"m afraid that this person"s ident.i.ty is not to be underestimated. His guards are all top experts, we are definitely not a match for them!" Seeing that their young master actually dared to hesitate, the two deputy Generals immediately tried to persuade him in a low voice, fearing that this proud and arrogant young master would say something stupid.
Hearing this, Liu Yuan clenched his fists and stared deeply at Xiang Yun. It was as if he wanted to engrave this person"s appearance into his heart. He would find a chance in the future to take revenge on him!In the end, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Although his heart was filled with unwillingness, he still nodded his head with great difficulty in the face of such a situation, indicating that he had already changed his mind and would no longer cause trouble for Xiang Yun and the rest.
"Hmm, that"s good!" Xiang Yun did not know when he had picked up a folding fan with a jade pendant in his hand. With a shake of his folding fan, Xiang Yun faked a few movements in the snowy weather. His face immediately twitched slightly as he thought to himself, "It"s so d.a.m.n cold!"
Xiang Yun then put away his folding fan without any change in his expression. Smiling, he said to Liu Yuan, "Since Mister Liu has changed his mind, that would be great. This way, we could all shed less blood, right?"
The two deputy Generals on the opposite side immediately sighed in relief when they heard this. A large rock suddenly fell from their hearts. As long as the latter did not pursue the matter any further, this matter could be considered to have pa.s.sed away safely.However, just as their hearts were about to hit the ground, Xiang Yun"s words caused them to tremble with fear.
Xiang Yun had a warm smile on his face as he said, "Since you"ve already finished your business with Mister Liu, it should be my turn now." Xiang Yun originally did not want to cause trouble at all. Although his thoughts had already fused together, he was still the leader of this group of people from his previous life. Otherwise, with the style of the previous crown prince, he would not need to wait for you, Liu Yuan, to ride on my head and p.o.o.p here for a while.
Back then, in order to save the school beauties, he had dared to fight against three criminals by himself. In the end, that sort of fearless viciousness had scared all three of them away. It could be seen that Xiang Yun was also a point that they had given to him. Not only did this Liu Yuan want to kill her, he also wanted to plot against Lin Wan"er. Xiang Yun"s good temper had been completely worn out by him.
"Boom!"
When Xiang Yun said this, it was like thunder striking the ground. Whether it was Liu Yuan, the two deputy Generals, or the soldiers, they all felt gooseb.u.mps all over their backs as they felt a sense of fear and unease.
One of them hurriedly spurred his horse forward, clasping his hands as he said to Xiang Yun, "This young master, my young master is young and ignorant, and accidentally provoked young master. I hope young master is magnanimous and can forgive my young master this time, this little one will be forever grateful!""Heh heh." The corners of Xiang Yun"s lips curved upwards in a smile, "Who told you I"m an adult? This young master is only 18 years old this year, and hasn"t reached adulthood yet. I"m not an adult yet, so I don"t have much."
"Uh, this …" How could that deputy general have known that Xiang Yun would answer him like this? He was immediately struck dumb on the spot.
Immediately, Xiang Yun gently raised the closed folding fan in his hand and casually pointed to the palanquin opposite him. His expression had already changed drastically as he involuntarily retreated, unable to control himself.
"Go, take off all of this Young Master Liu"s teeth and teach him a lesson to prevent him from saying that I am an unkind person and did not teach him these things even after meeting him."
