Ishbara Khagan’s eyes twitched, and as he spoke, he unconsciously backed away. His tone had also become extremely meek, so meek that even Irbis s.h.i.+yun couldn’t help but glance at his father in surprise.
In his mind, his father had always been a domineering figure whose word was law, and this impression had carved itself even more deeply into his mind after he saw the true face of his father not so long ago.
He had never seen his father so meek and timid.
And back in the tent, his father had clearly made it known that he wanted to join the alliance against the Great Tang. But now that the man he wanted to deal with had appeared, his father…
Irbis s.h.i.+yun could not continue thinking about it. He only felt an unbearable sadness.
“Heh, Ishbara, at this stage, there’s no need to keep acting in front of this king.”
w.a.n.g Chong smiled as he continued to walk down from the air.
He was in no rush to make his move. Everything was under his control.
He had come personally, which meant that the moment he appeared, all of the Western Turks were under his control. Nothing would be able to go beyond his expectations.
No matter what Ishbara Khagan was scheming, it would be to no avail.
“This king gave you a chance. Because of Barshad, this king did not strike immediately. Alas, in the end, you still made the incorrect choice!”
w.a.n.g Chong coldly chuckled and glanced at Ishbara Khagan. Suddenly, his body disappeared.
“Not good!”
He had been trying to use words to hold down w.a.n.g Chong to buy as much time for Supreme Divine and Meteor Divine as he could, but w.a.n.g Chong was unpredictable. Though he wore an unhurried smile, he struck without hesitation.
With no time to think, Ishbara Khagan unleashed the Stellar Energy in his dantian and tried to flee as quickly as he could. At the same time, he threw out a palm behind him. Destructive energy howled out like ten thousand wolves while a sandstorm swept over the world.
To deal with all of this, w.a.n.g Chong only needed a simple attack.
“It’s useless!”
w.a.n.g Chong’s cold voice rang out, and Ishbara Khagan could only get a few hundred feet before the sky suddenly darkened and a greenish-black energy descended from the sky like a ma.s.sive net.
Kaboom! Ishbara Khagan miserably screamed as he was slapped out of the sky by that energy, cras.h.i.+ng through the snow and into the ground.
The force of the impact was so great that Mount Sanmi trembled several times.
A panicked voice came from the distance. “King of Foreign Lands, spare my father’s life!”
This cry at the final moment saved Ishbara Khagan’s life.
w.a.n.g Chong had been planning to shatter Ishbara Khagan’s heart and end his life, but at the final moment, he withdrew his energy.
“w.a.n.g Chong, you dare!” Irbis s.h.i.+yun furiously roared, his eyes red.
“Wunu s.h.i.+bi, kill him!”
Irbis s.h.i.+yun’s voice rang out, his body br.i.m.m.i.n.g with rage.
Buzz!
A cold pair of eyes instantly locked onto Irbis s.h.i.+yun and Wunu s.h.i.+bi. Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s hand had been going for his weapon, but when he felt w.a.n.g Chong’s gaze, he was overcome by fear, all of his resolve vanis.h.i.+ng.
“King of Foreign Lands, I am willing to surrender!”
Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s face went pale as he raised up the saber in his hand.
“Great General, you…!”
Irbis s.h.i.+yun froze, his body going cold.
In his mind, the Solar Great General had always been a staunch member of the anti-Tang faction, and he had even been influenced by this att.i.tude to become extremely anti-Tang and execute this operation.
Never had he imagined that when he was still persisting, Wunu s.h.i.+bi would be the first to surrender, not even showing a hint of hesitation.
“Your Highness, the situation is stronger than the man. Our moment has pa.s.sed. We cannot oppose w.a.n.g Chong!” Wunu s.h.i.+bi awkwardly explained to Irbis s.h.i.+yun.
But though he was embarra.s.sed, his reaction remained swift.
“Everyone, listen up! Put down your weapons!
“King of Foreign Lands, this one did not know that you would be gracing us with your presence. If this one knew that Your Highness would be paying a visit to the Western Turks, this conflict today would never have happened!” Wunu s.h.i.+bi sincerely said. As he spoke, he threw his saber to the side.
w.a.n.g Chong was simply too powerful!
Ishbara Khagan was far stronger than Wunu s.h.i.+bi, but w.a.n.g Chong had easily suppressed him, not even giving him a chance to resist. Even if he put up a desperate struggle, he would not be able to escape w.a.n.g Chong’s palm.
Death was all that awaited him!
Most importantly, Wunu s.h.i.+bi was truly afraid.
He had only encouraged the First Prince to act because he had learned that w.a.n.g Chong had appeared in the frontline base in the northeast. Who could have expected that he could cross such a vast distance to appear in the Western Turkic Khaganate?
Unpredictable movements and unfathomable plans! This man truly instilled fear in the hearts of his enemies!
Wunu s.h.i.+bi had lost all resolve to fight.
Behind him, his generals didn’t dare to believe their ears.
“Put them down!” Wunu s.h.i.+bi repeated.
With a great clattering, the Western Turkic generals around the First Prince and Wunu s.h.i.+bi threw down their weapons and gave up on resistance.
“Hmph, interesting!”
w.a.n.g Chong coldly watched on and grinned.
He had to admit that Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s actions were truly surprising. He had even been ready to attack.
“Wunu s.h.i.+bi, you’ve truly made me take a second look at you! However, your domineering strength still presents a threat to both the Great Tang and the Western Turks.”
w.a.n.g Chong faintly smiled, and as he smiled, he struck.
Bang!
Before Wunu s.h.i.+bi could react, boundless Stellar Energy erupted from the earth, knocking away dirt and snow, and penetrated into his body.
This peak Subtle realm energy, half a step away from the Grotto Heaven realm, broke through Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s defenses and into his dantian, transforming into a sealing ring that locked away all his Stellar Energy!
“Youuuu!”
Shocked and angered, Wunu s.h.i.+bi tried to jump away, instinctively tried to resist, but he was too late.
Boom! A few seconds later, Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s energy plunged from the Great General level all the way to the level of an ordinary person.
Wunu s.h.i.+bi’s body went limp, and he dropped to the ground as if all the energy had been drained out of him.
His face went as white as a sheet of paper.
His energy being sealed was like a bird being deprived of its wings, a tiger shorn of its claws. He no longer presented any threat.
w.a.n.g Chong did not have so many concerns on his mind.
Swoos.h.!.+
He made a grabbing motion with his hand, upon which Wunu s.h.i.+bi flew through the air and landed at his feet.
“A wise man knows when to submit to fate. However, only the present you can allow one to truly relax.”
w.a.n.g Chong looked down at Wunu s.h.i.+bi and smiled.
As w.a.n.g Chong spoke to the pale-faced Wunu s.h.i.+bi, Ishbara Khagan’s weak voice came from nearby. “You madman, you won’t succeed! Even if you kill me, the Western Turks will never obey you! The Tang will never reign over the Turks!”
He clambered out of the snow, blood trickling from his lips, and he appeared extremely weak. Unlike Wunu s.h.i.+bi, his dantian had been shattered by w.a.n.g Chong, destroying his cultivation.
The current Ishbara Khagan was crippled!
w.a.n.g Chong stared straight ahead and calmly said, “There’s no need for you to worry about it. If the Western Turks won’t cooperate, I can just kill them all!”
This calm tone frightened Ishbara Khagan and all the Western Turkic generals, sending a chill running through their hearts.
Kill all the Western Turks?
What sort of madman could say such things?!
If it had been someone else, they truly would have treated these words as the ravings of a madman, not worth trusting, but w.a.n.g Chong…
When they thought about how millions of people had died at w.a.n.g Chong’s hands, they couldn’t bring themselves to laugh.
It was not for no reason that w.a.n.g Chong was feared by all the other countries and known as the ‘Butcher’.
“Of course, if the Western Turks are willing to cooperate and are open and sincere, not trying any tricks in secret, if Khagan is willing to abdicate all authority to Fourth Prince Barshad, then that will be another matter entirely!”
w.a.n.g Chong suddenly changed his tone, softly chuckling.
Ishbara Khagan, Wunu s.h.i.+bi, and the Western Turkic generals s.h.i.+vered.
Fourth Prince Barshad spoke at this time, his head lowered and his tone firm. “Your Highness, be at ease. Although the Western Turks are beyond your civilized borders, we are still trustworthy. From now, the Western Turks will be the Great Tang’s firmest ally!”
No one amongst the Western Turks understood w.a.n.g Chong more than him. He had joined the Great Tang and opposed Irbis s.h.i.+yun and Ishbara Khagan precisely because of w.a.n.g Chong.
In his view, opposing the Great Tang only meant death.
“Barshad, this king trusts that you will keep your promise.”
w.a.n.g Chong smiled.
“In addition, I leave Irbis s.h.i.+yun to you. With your abilities, I trust that you can handle him properly?”
“Your Highness, be at ease. Barshad knows what should be done.”
Barshad respectfully bowed.
