Chapter 255: I’m not here to protect you, I’m here to help the National Advisor beat you!
At that moment, an ordinary disciple suddenly ran in from outside.
“Greetings… greetings to the Master, and the elders.”
The disciple seemed to have run too fast and was out of breath, but his face was full of excitement.
Before Six-Fingered Black Man could ask, the disciple pointed outside the Mechanical City and said, “Master, the Yan troops are here!”
The Mohist Sect had deep and intricate connections with the Yan royal family.
Otherwise, Yan Dan wouldn’t have taken Six-Fingered Black Man as his master.
Even an ordinary Mohist disciple, upon seeing the Yan troops arrive, would know that they were saved!
Outside Mechanical City, Li Mo and the Qin army had already noticed the aggressive approach of the Yan army.
Thousands of Qin cavalry quickly regrouped and soon entered a state of readiness.
The two armies quickly gathered, leaving a strip of ground several meters wide in between.
Li Mo, dressed in a splendid robe, looked dashing and seemed out of place amidst the soldiers.
Flanked by the extraordinary Fei Yan and Moon Goddess, he stood out even more.
Thus, when Lord Yan Chun stepped out of his carriage, he immediately recognized who was in charge on the Qin side.
Lord Yan Chun had brought thousands of soldiers and was accompanied by several comely maids.
He was a man who valued grandeur and would never shortchange himself, no matter where he went.
Even before stepping out, several servants hurriedly laid out a red carpet on the ground.
The maids by his side assisted him every step of the way.
Upon getting off the carriage, Lord Yan Chun was instantly captivated by Fei Yan and Moon Goddess beside Li Mo.
He found them breathtaking.
He had thought that the Snow Maiden of the Yan State’s Feixue Pavilion was the epitome of beauty, but he was wrong.
Fei Yan and Moon Goddess did not win in terms of looks.
But rather their unique demeanor.
Even someone like Lord Yan Chun had never seen anyone with their otherworldly aura.
One was as dazzling as the sun, the other as serene as the moon.
This Qin’s National Advisor certainly enjoyed his blessings!
Compared to Fei Yan and Moon Goddess, the maids beside him were like fireflies in the light of the sun, like grains of sand in the ocean.
It truly highlighted the disparity between them.
Where did this National Advisor find such celestial beings?
“Husband, what should we do?”
Fei Yan’s face was serious.
It was unclear why Yan’s troops were here.
With their arrival, it would be harder to move against Mechanical City.
Fei Yan was not someone without her own ideas.
But now that Li Mo was here, it was natural to ask him first before doing anything.
Li Mo curled his lips slightly and smiled, “No worries, leave it to me.”
He was determined to take Mechanical City, even if Lord Yan Chun arrived, it wouldn’t be saved, he said!
“Are you the National Advisor of Qin?”
Lord Yan Chun immediately withdrew his gaze from Fei Yan and Moon Goddess.
With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and asked.
“Yes, I am.”
Inside Mechanical City.
After hearing the disciple’s report, Dao Zhi reacted the fastest. Leaning on a crutch, he hopped to the disciple’s side and eagerly asked.
“Really? How many troops?”
“A massive force, at least seven to eight thousand!”
Everyone felt a wave of relief upon hearing this.
“Great, we are finally saved!”
“With seven to eight thousand troops, the National Advisor of Qin wouldn’t dare to make any reckless moves.”
“Exactly, we’re in Yan. If he clashed with the Yan army, he wouldn’t be able to leave here.”
Seven or eight thousand people may not necessarily be a match for the Qin Empire, but it’s important to know that this is on Yan Empire’s territory.
If it really came to a fight, Yan Empire’s army could support at any time!
Six-Fingered Black Man nodded and asked, “Who’s leading them?”
Without hesitation, the Mo disciple replied, “It’s the Yan Emperor’s brother, Lord Yan Chun.”
Hearing this, Six-Fingered Black Man heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
Lord Yan Chun was the current Yan Emperor’s real brother, Uncle of Crown Prince Dan.
Known for being arrogant and domineering, it was said that anyone who offended him was never able to live peacefully.
If it were someone else, Six-Fingered Black Man wouldn’t feel so at ease.
But Lord Yan Chun was different with his domineering character.
He’s always been used to being tyrannical, without concern for whether you’re the Qin Empire’s National Advisor or not.
At this moment, Lord Yan Chun’s annoying personality was actually beneficial for the Mohist Sect’s situation.
“Let’s go, come with me to take a look.”
Six-Fingered Black Man adjusted his inner breath and temporarily suppressed his injury.
With the Yan Empire’s army as backing, he felt much more confident.
The group from the Mohist Sect excitedly arrived at the lookout hole by the main gate.
Six-Fingered Black Man looked out through the lookout hole and sure enough, saw both sides in a tense standoff.
He exhaled slowly, and his complexion seemed to improve.
“Finally, they’re here! Open the gate, I’ll go meet Lord Yan Chun.”
Lord Yan Chun had come because he found out about the Qin Empire troops’ unauthorized entry.
He planned to take advantage of this opportunity to inform him about Crown Prince Dan’s situation.
Not only did the Qin troops illegally cross the border, but the Yin-Yang School’s Dongjun, who was with the National Advisor, also killed the Yan Empire’s Crown Prince.
With these two accusations combined, the Qin National Advisor couldn’t talk his way out no matter what.
His own injury and the Mo disciple’s grievances could not go unavenged.
“Chief, your injury…”
Elder Ban showed a worried expression, uneasy about him going out.
After all, the situation outside was unclear.
If the Qin National Advisor or Dongjun acted recklessly in front of Lord Yan Chun, Six-Fingered Black Man in his current state would not be able to handle it.
Six-Fingered Black Man waved his hand: “No worries, with Lord Yan Chun there, Qin wouldn’t dare to act. Quickly prepare the boat.”
Seeing him determined, Elder Ban had no choice but to comply.
Soon, under the escort of two Mo disciples, Six-Fingered Black Man boarded a small boat and left the Mohist Mechanical City.
“How dare he come out?”
Outside Mohist Mechanical City, Fei Yan immediately noticed Six-Fingered Black Man standing at the bow of the boat with head held high.
After hiding for so long, now with the Yan army here, he’s become arrogant?
Fei Yan’s beautiful eyes narrowed as she considered whether to take action.
“Sister, it’s better not to act impulsively.”
Moon Goddess sensed her thoughts and transmitted a reminder.
Fei Yan glanced at Li Mo and slowly released her clenched jade fingers.
Forget it, better to follow the husband’s arrangement.
In no time, Six-Fingered Black Man’s boat docked at the shore.
“Mohist Chief, paying respects to Lord Yan Chun.”
Six-Fingered Black Man disembarked, his eyes coldly sweeping over Fei Yan.
The implication was clear.
You killed the Yan Prince, this cannot be hidden.
“Formalities aside, why doesn’t Mohist Chief look well?”
Lord Yan Chun, with a broad grin, patted his big belly.
Though he spoke politely, his demeanor was arrogant.
The title ‘Mohist Chief’ sounded impressive, but in the end, the Mohist Sect was just a gang of craftsmen.
To put it bluntly, they were just a bunch of carpenters.
Compared to his legitimate royal status, their ranks were worlds apart.
It was only because of his status as Master of Crown Prince Dan that Lord Yan Chun bothered with pleasantries.
Six-Fingered Black Man glanced at Fei Yan, his eyes flashing coldly.
“Replying to Lord Yan Chun, I am injured.”
Lord Yan Chun raised an eyebrow: “Injured? Chief, you’re a master of the Free and Unfettered realm. Who could injure you?”
Six-Fingered Black Man instantly showed a look of resentment, staring directly at Fei Yan.
“It was precisely this person beside the Qin Empire’s National Advisor, Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School!”
Hearing this, Lord Yan Chun’s mouth twitched, and he subconsciously looked at Fei Yan.
Damn, no wonder this woman is so beautiful, turns out she’s from the Yin-Yang School.
The other one must be the guardian deity, Moon Goddess.
The women of the Yin-Yang School were notorious far more for their ruthlessness than their beauty.
Although beauty is alluring, you need to be alive to enjoy it!
The members of the Yin-Yang School are ruthless murderers.
Their mysterious and unpredictable Yin-Yang techniques are impossible to guard against.
“Oh, oh!”
Lord Yan Chun nodded perfunctorily.
The Six-Fingered Black Man was taken aback but continued, “Fortunately, Lord Yan Chun arrived in time; otherwise, our Mohist Sect would have fallen to their deadly schemes.”
“These people have entered our land without permission and attacked our Mohist fortress. We request Lord Yan Chun to uphold justice for us.”
Lord Yan Chun scratched his big belly without saying a word.
Li Mo, on the other hand, said, “If I want to kill you, not even the Emperor of Yan can save you.”
The Six-Fingered Black Man burst into a rage.
“Arrogant! With Lord Yan Chun here, you still dare to speak so wildly?”
“Lord Yan Chun, Qin soldiers have entered our borders without reason; this is provoking the Yan kingdom.”
Li Mo turned to Lord Yan Chun and asked, “Lord Yan Chun, did you lead troops here to rescue the Mohist clan?”
“What else?”
This was said by the Six-Fingered Black Man.
He didn’t believe that with Lord Yan Chun and so many Yan soldiers present, Qin would dare to make a move.
But!
Lord Yan Chun stepped back and waved his hand continuously.
He explained fervently, “No, no, no, there’s a misunderstanding, National Advisor. I didn’t come to rescue them; I came to help you attack the Mohist!”
Boom!
The Six-Fingered Black Man felt as if struck by lightning.
“Attack the Mohists?”
How could this be?
Weren’t you supposed to rescue the Mohist?
Why are you now helping Qin to attack us?
Lord Yan Chun grinned and laughed twice.
Though I, Lord Yan Chun, am domineering, I’m not foolish!
The former mistakes of Han are right there for all to see.
Qin is just looking for an excuse to finish off Zhao and come for us.
Do you, a small Mohist Sect, want to involve our entire Yan kingdom?
