Chapter 1772 The Crown (2)

Upon hearing Zhu Ning’s words, Yun Lintian hurriedly approached the table and examined the map. From the looks of it, there was a meager chance that Zhao Long’s troops would encounter an enemy. It was clear that Yun Yi had planned an escape route for Zhao Long and the elite soldiers.

Yun Yi looked at Zhu Ning and bowed his head respectfully. “Please forgive me for my selfishness.”

Zhu Ning hurriedly helped Yun Yi up and said. “What are you saying? I am nothing but an old man with one foot in the grave. Death means nothing to me. On the contrary, General, I feel sorry for you. You are still young.”

Yun Yi took a deep breath and spoke solemnly. “I want to pave the way for the Second Prince. The Yun Dynasty may fall, but His Highness must survive.”

Zhu Ning nodded solemnly. “Yes. As long as His Highness can survive this catastrophe, the Yun Dynasty will surely regain its glory.”

Yun Lintian looked at the two loyal servants and wondered what kind of person the so-called second prince was to have captured their hearts and souls like this.

Yun Yi and Zhu Ning continued their discussion and finalized the plan.

Yun Lintian listened to them eagerly. Although he had never learned about the famous Sun Tzu’s “Art of War,” he could understand one or two things they discussed.

“Hmm?” Suddenly, Yun Lintian noticed something and walked out of the tent.

Yun Lintian immediately noticed an ordinary-looking soldier standing beside the tent in a blind spot, attempting to eavesdrop on the conversation.

Without a doubt, this person must be a spy.

Yun Lintian frowned and stepped forward, attempting to grab the man, but his hand went through him. He forgot that he was nothing more than a ghost here.

Yun Lintian’s heart was filled with anxiety. Even though he had no idea who was behind this spy, it was not good to let him eavesdrop like this.

He tried to shout and make a fuss, but it was futile. Yun Lintian couldn’t interfere with anything here. This made him upset.

After listening to everything, the spy quickly walked away and found a secluded spot to send a message.

Yun Lintian quickly followed and saw the spy sending a pigeon with a letter away.

“This is bad.” Yun Lintian muttered to himself. Unfortunately, he was unable to do anything.

Seeing the spy returning to the camp, Yun Lintian sighed and followed him.

At this moment, Yun Yi and Zhu Ning had already begun organizing the troop.

Half an hour later, everyone was ready and left the camp under Yun Yi’s leadership.

Yun Lintian quietly followed the army while observing the surroundings. He had confirmed one thing. There was no practitioner here. Everyone was an ordinary mortal.

The troop traveled for half a day and arrived at a mountain pass. Technically, it was extremely unwise to go through the passage because it was too easy to set up traps on both sides.

However, Yun Lintian knew that Yun Yi had no choice. It was his best option if he wanted to break through the enemy’s blockade as quickly as possible.

Yun Yi secretly sent people to climb the mountains. To everyone’s surprise, there was no trap here. No one could be seen in the mountains.

“Strange…” Zhu Ning stroked his beard while looking at the mountains on both sides.

Yun Yi frowned deeply. He couldn’t understand why the enemy had let go of such an excellent opportunity to weaken his forces.

Yun Lintian touched his chin and pondered. If he were the enemy, he would undoubtedly attack Yun Yi in this location. The geological advantage here was too good to pass up.

Suddenly, the expressions of Yun Lintian and Yun Yi changed dramatically. .š¯’ˇ

“Oh no, Zhao Long!” Yun Yi and Yun Lintian exclaimed in unison.

“Everyone, follow me!” Yun Yi roared and kicked his horse, galloping towards the Black River.

Zhu Ning immediately realized the problem. Without a doubt, the enemy must have known about Zhao Long’s troops and chosen to attack them instead.

“Yah!” Zhu Ning kicked the horse and chased after Yun Yi.

Yun Lintian quickly ran alongside the army at the fastest speed.

An hour later, Yun Lintian finally arrived at the Black River. The first thing he saw was blood… a river of blood formed on the ground.

Yun Lintian passed through the soldiers and arrived at the front. His face immediately turned pale when he saw the scene.

At this moment, several severed heads were hanging on spears. All of them were obviously the elite soldiers Yun Lintian had seen previouslyā€¦ The most important thing was that Zhao Long was among them.

“Zhao Long!” Yun Yi jumped off the horse and rushed to Zhao Long’s head.

“Arghhhh! It’s me who hurt you!” Yun Yi hugged Zhao Long’s head and screamed in sorrow. Two streams of tears fell down his cheeks. He blamed himself for everything.

The tragic scene greatly disturbed everyone’s morale. Whether it was Zhu Ning or the soldiers behind him, their faces turned ghastly pale at this moment.

Yun Lintian clenched his fists in anger as he gazed at the heart-wrenching scene. This thing wouldn’t have happened if he could talk to Yun Yi.

He turned around and searched for the spy among the troops. Unfortunately, this person must have escaped by now.

“What a pleasant cry you have.”

All of a sudden, a cheerful voice resounded from behind, causing everyone to assume their battle stances.

Yun Yi raised his head and saw a middle-aged man in a general’s cloak looking at him from a distance.

“Chu Qiang!” Yun Yi roared furiously. His eyes filled with a murderous intent.

“It’s been a while, Yun Yi. How is it? Do you like this gift?” Chu Qiang laughed. “Seriously, this Zhao Long gave me a headache. He managed to kill one hundred people before dying.”

Yun Yi pulled his cloak out and wrapped it around Zhao Long’s head before walking back to his horse. He handed Zhao Long’s head to Zhu Ning and jumped back onto his horse.

Clang!

Yun Yi grabbed his long, silver spear and pointed it at Chu Qiang. “Attack!”

As his voice fell, Yun Yi kicked the horse and rushed fearlessly towards Chu Qiang’s troop, followed by Zhu Ning and the rest.

Chu Qiang curled his lips. “Idiot.”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In that instant, numerous arrows filled the sky, falling towards Yun Yi’s troopsā€¦
