Chapter 256: Lord Yan Chun’s sycophantic attitude, Six-Fingered Black Man is shattered!
The Six-Fingered Black Man was stunned by Lord Yan Chun’s words and couldn’t come to his senses for a long time.
He brought so many soldiers not to rescue the Mohists but to help Qin eliminate them?
Fei Yan and Moon Goddess were also taken aback.
The two sisters exchanged glances, each seeing the other’s shock.
Li Mo smiled faintly, appearing much calmer.
Yan Dan, as a hostage, had escaped Qin without permission.
The Emperor of Qin was furious, having already sent a letter to Yan demanding an explanation from the Emperor of Yan.
Lord Yan Chun, being the Emperor of Yan’s brother with real power, couldn’t be unaware of this matter.
What was Qin’s strength now?
They annihilated Han in three days, and now they’re beating Zhao back step by step.
Among the nations, perhaps only Chu can compete with Qin.
As for Yan, it is barely stronger than Han.
Otherwise, why send a crown prince as a hostage?
The hostage running away without reason is a very serious matter.
Normally, hostages are notified in advance if war is imminent to keep them safe.
Now that your hostage in Qin has run away, what does that mean?
Are you planning to fight Qin?
The Emperor of Qin was furious, and the Emperor of Yan was trembling in fear.
Yan is very close to Zhao.
If this matter isn’t handled well and doesn’t satisfy Qin, they might attack Yan right after Zhao!
Or perhaps they won’t even wait until they’re finished with Zhao.
Most of Zhao’s territory is already lost.
The main Qin army has penetrated deep into Zhao.
Qin could spare a part of its forces to easily crush Yan!
Even a casual strike would be too much for Yan to bear!
As Lord Yan Chun thought.
I’m domineering, but I’m not stupid.
Who doesn’t know the National Advisor’s status in Qin?
Qin’s emperor is already unhappy with Yan, and provoking their National Advisor now would be sheer lunacy!
“Come, come, you guys, seize this Six-Fingered whatever.”
Lord Yan Chun gestured to the generals behind him, signaling them to catch the man.
On the way here, they were worried about what to do if the Mohist didn’t open the gates.
Unexpectedly, the Six-Fingered Black Man offered himself up!
The Six-Fingered Black Man’s face turned deadly pale!
How could he have expected things to develop to this point?
He panicked and hurriedly shouted, “Wait! I still have one more thing to report to Lord Yan Chun!”
Lord Yan Chun raised an eyebrow. “Let’s hear it.”
The Six-Fingered Black Man glared at Fei Yan and said in a deep voice, “Lord Yan Chun, you probably don’t know this, right? Although Dan left Xianyang, he did not return to the State of Yan.”
Lord Yan Chun showed a suspicious expression, “He didn’t return to Yan? He’s not in your Mohist Sect Mechanical City?”
Although Yan had already learned that Yan Dan had fled from Qin, they didn’t know where he had gone. The Qin pursuers didn’t catch up to him either. Lord Yan Chun thought that the most likely possibility was that he had hidden in the Mohist Sect Mechanical City.
This time, he came precisely to capture Yan Dan and deliver him to Qin. Only in this way could they show their compliance. Yan Dan fled on his own; it had nothing to do with the State of Yan.
But according to the Six-Fingered Black Man, Yan Dan did not come to the Mohist Sect Mechanical City? “Not only is he not there, but Dan… he can never come back.”
The Six-Fingered Black Man highly valued Yan Dan and even had the idea of passing on the position of Mohist Sect Leader to him in the future. “What… what do you mean by that?” Lord Yan Chun took a deep breath and asked.
The Six-Fingered Black Man looked coldly at Fei Yan and said word by word, “Because Dan was already killed by this Yin Yang School’s Dongjun!”
“What?” Lord Yan Chun’s eyes widened in shock! He turned to look at Fei Yan and sternly asked, “Is this true?”
Fei Yan frowned slightly. Well, this Six-Fingered Black Man, still sowing discord at this point?
The Six-Fingered Black Man sneered. Lord Yan Chun might not dare to offend the National Advisor of Qin, but that didn’t mean he was truly afraid of the Yin Yang School. Yan Dan was the Crown Prince of Yan and Lord Yan Chun’s nephew.
You killed him; how could the State of Yan let this go unnoticed? Even with the National Advisor of Qin backing you, you are still in the wrong!
The Moon Goddess’s beautiful eyes roamed between Fei Yan and Lord Yan Chun. Unconcerned, she wore an expression that suggested she was about to watch a good show. She also wanted to see how Lord Yan Chun would handle this matter.
Fei Yan was about to speak when someone grasped her hand. “My wife killed him; does Lord Yan Chun have any objections?”
Li Mo stepped forward and spoke calmly. The Six-Fingered Black Man’s heart skipped a beat. Wife?
This Yin Yang School’s Dongjun is actually his wife? How have there been no rumors about such a big matter in the martial world?
Lord Yan Chun took a deep breath, looked at Li Mo, and slowly said, “I just want to ask this Lady Dongjun one question.” The Six-Fingered Black Man was overjoyed. Looking at Lord Yan Chun’s demeanor, it seemed like he was seeking an explanation!
As long as the two sides started a conflict, Lord Yan Chun would surely side with the Mohist Sect! … If I wasn’t confident, how could I have come out so easily? This National Advisor of Qin is truly arrogant. He killed my nephew and still dares to spout such wild words! Lord Yan Chun turned his gaze to Fei Yan.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Combined, there were more than ten thousand people from both sides. At this moment, however, it became dead silent.
The only sound was the rushing river water splashing against the shore. The tension in the air grew palpable. Zhang Han slowly raised his arm. As soon as Lord Yan Chun’s negotiations with the National Advisor broke down, he planned to issue the order to attack. Yan soldiers gripped their weapons tightly. Although they had the numerical advantage, facing the elite Qin forces, the outcome was still uncertain.
The Six-Fingered Black Man clenched his fists tightly. Finally, revenge for Yan Dan, revenge for his fellow Mohist Sect disciples, and his own injuries could be settled! The Moon Goddess’s cold eyes shifted toward Li Mo, and she quietly moved to stand next to him. If a fight broke out, she would protect him at all costs. It wasn’t about whether he needed protection, but about taking the opportunity to show her stance!
Fei Yan coldly stared at the Six-Fingered Black Man, her dark, beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent. The Six-Fingered Black Man met her gaze icily. Given the current situation, let’s see how you talk your way out of this!
Finally, in this heavy atmosphere, Lord Yan Chun spoke. His serious expression suddenly turned fawning: “Lady Dongjun… are you hurt?”
Fei Yan: w(o)w
Moon Goddess: ?
Six-Fingered Black Man: ???
Everyone was left stunned by Lord Yan Chun’s question!
Fei Yan glanced at Li Mo and then muttered in confusion: “No… there shouldn’t be.”
Ignoring their shocked expressions, Lord Yan Chun’s face was full of laughter.
He seemed to let out a big sigh of relief.
“That’s good. Lady Dongjun’s divine power is unparalleled. How could that puny boy Dan be a match for Lady Dongjun?”
The shocked Six-Fingered Black Man finally snapped back.
Excitedly, he said: “Lord Yan Chun, she killed your nephew, the Crown Prince of Yan State!”
Lord Yan Chun glanced at him, and his previously cheerful face immediately turned dark.
He shouted coldly: “What Crown Prince of Yan State? Dan, as a hostage, dared to leave Xianyang without permission, attempting to incite conflict between Yan and Qin.”
“The Emperor of Yan has already ordered the abolition of Dan’s crown prince status.”
With that, he casually waved his hand: “A deposed crown prince is just dead, so what?”
