In the dark night, everyone hid in a pitch-black col and trembled.

This is what youve done!

Yan Huaijing went to use the toilet, but Xiao Zhenting smashed him to the ground.

Yan Huaijing spat out a b.l.o.o.d.y tooth and looked coldly at Xiao Zhenting. You actually dare to attack the Crown Prince. Do you want to die?

Die? If I, Xiao Zhenting, wanted my life, I wouldnt have come here! Xiao Zhenting grabbed Yan Huaijings lapel and pulled him up from the ground. He slammed him against the stone wall. Did you see everything on the battlefield? Didnt you see it? You were hiding in the tent, eating, drinking, and living well. You dont know what kind of chaos the outside is!

Yan Huaijing was shocked by Xiao Zhentings killing intent and anger.

Although Xiao Zhenting was not too regulated, he was not as unreasonable as Yan Jiuchao. However, Xiao Zhenting was really going all out now.

Yan Huaijing composed himself and said with a burning gaze, Xiao Zhenting, you dont have the ability and suffered a defeat. Could it be that you want to blame me?

Xiao Zhenting was so angry that he laughed. Was he afraid of losing? Did he care about the fake reputation? He was not afraid of death, and even the soldiers of the Great Zhou were not afraid of death, but some people died unjustly!

Xiao Zhenting said coldly, Do you know what kind of monsters youve provoked for the Great Zhou?

Yan Huaijing felt guilty.

Xiao Zhenting was originally just venting his anger, but when he saw Yan

Huaijings gaze, he suddenly frowned. You know, right? Yan Huaijing avoided his sharp gaze. Let go of me first.

Grand Marshal. Shadow Thirteen walked over.

Xiao Zhenting let go of Yan Huaijing coldly.

Yan Huaijing tugged at his collar that was a little tightened and said, You wont believe me if I say that I didnt know in advance. I really dont know. I just once asked them how a ten thousand-strong army can stabilize the situation in the capital. There are thirty thousand imperial guards in the capital and ten thousand troops stationed within a hundred miles. They said that theres no need to worry about this. Those mercenaries are very powerful. Moreover, if they really fight, they dont have to worry about the casualties of the mercenaries. I asked them, could it be that they wont be injured? That person said, yes, they wont be injured.

Yan Huaijing recalled the cloaked mans expression at that time. It was a little unfathomable, but Yan Huaijing did not think too much about it. The limitations of his understanding determined the limitations of his prediction. In his opinion, the cloaked mans so-called not being injured must be because their martial arts were too strong and they would not be injured. How could he have expected that they would not be injured literally? Its a puppet technique, Shadow Thirteen said.

What do you mean? Yan Huaijing asked.

Shadow Thirteen couldnt be bothered with him. He looked at Xiao Zhenting and said, Puppet technique is a type of sorcery that can control peoples actions and will. The reason why those armies of the Sacred Clan arent afraid of death should be because they were hit by this puppet technique. However, if they can even control the dead, Im afraid it wont be as simple as a puppet technique. There might be a Gu technique too.

Shadow Thirteen had never seen such an evil puppet technique and Gu technique. Grandma and Zhou Jin also knew puppet techniques. Zhou Jin had never used it, but Grandma had used it before, but it was only used on living people. Shadow Thirteen had seen Ah Wei use the Gu technique, but Ah Wei would not cause trouble on dead people.

Xiao Zhenting frowned and said, At this rate, wont the other party add as many people as we die? Then this war really couldnt be finished! Xiao

Zhenting thought for a while. Since theres a nunnet techniaue. do they have a

puppet master?

Shadow Thirteen nodded. I think so.

Xiao Zhenting made a decision. Thirteen, make the preparations. Tonight, well infiltrate Yu City and kill the puppet master of the Sacred Clan!

Okay. Shadow Thirteen did not hesitate.

Wait, Xiao Zhenting suddenly said. Its better if you dont go. You stay. Isnt there a person called Jun Changan beside him? Tell him to go with me! He didnt even address him as Crown Prince.

Yan Huaijing gasped.

Thats not good, Shadow Thirteen said. Jun Changans martial arts arent as good as mine.

Hmph. Xiao Zhenting turned around, casually grabbed a set of armor that was scattered on the ground, and threw it into Yan Huaijings arms. If the enemy attacks in the middle of the night, let the Crown Prince lead his troops to attack, if he dares not to rush to the front, kill him!

Xiao Zhenting! Yan Huaijing clenched his fists.

Yan Huaijing was definitely not a cowardly person. However, he did not think that charging into battle was something the Crown Prince should do. The

Crown Prince was more useful. Anyone could charge into battle, but once the Crown Prince was gone, the Great Zhous morale would be completely destroyed..
