NovelEnglishJust like that, this kind of Emperor deserved to be killed by outsiders. If the Emperor wanted to cede his territory and seek peace, it depended on whether he agreed to it or not.
The other soldiers had a tacit understanding of the situation and followed Xie Xuanchen back. It’s strange to say that their trip was done to dissolve the situation in the capital, but now they returned without success and were actually travelling faster than their prior mission.

His distinct features were so impressive that Xu Silang, who was guarding the city, recognized him at a glance. The 4th son of Senior General Xu then personally opened the city gate and welcomed Xie Xuanchen into the city.
Xie Xuanchen learned from Xu Silang that the imperial envoy and two Beirong envoys had entered the city, without saying anything else, he rushed directly to the Xu Residence. When he cin, he didn’t even get off his horse as he rushed to the backyard and killed one of the Beirong men directly.
The imperial envoy was so frightened by the sudden turn of events that his legs weakened. Xie Xuanchen, riding on the horse, smiled slightly when he heard the imperial envoy’s words. When he smiled, he showed off his charm, but that charm suddenly turned into murderous intent. Xie Xuanchen pointed his sword at the imperial envoy and said condescendingly, “Since the General is out of the palace, I won’t accept the order. In fact, if I refuse to hand over the territories, what can you do?”
When Mu Mingtang heard Xie Xuanchen’s voice, she couldn’t bear it anymore as she opened the door and ran out. Even though there were so many people in the room, they didn’t stop her. When Xie Xuanchen saw Mu Mingtang running out, he immediately gave up his murderous intent, jumped off his horse and hugged Mu Mingtang tightly, “I’m back.”
Mu Mingtang did not expect that the reunion would cso quickly, let alone that their meeting would be under such circumstances. She hugged Xie Xuanchen, as if all her emotions had found an outlet, “Were you injured at all?”
“No,” Xie Xuanchen put Mu Mingtang down and gently smoothed the scattered hair on her temples, “I’m not lying to you this time; I really didn’t.”

He covered his legs and wailed, shouting in broken Mandarin “Your Emperor of the Ye Dynasty has ceded Zhongshan City to our Great Beirong and now this is our territory!”
Xie Xuanchen sneered. He let go of Mu Mingtang and whispered to her, “Close your eyes.”
Mu Mingtang subconsciously covered her eyes. Then, she heard Xie Xuanchen draw out his long sword with a clang and slowly walked towards the Beirong man, “It has never been your decision as to who these territories belong to and I don’t care about this imperial edict. Hence, I refuse to accept it.”
After saying that, he pierced the opponent’s throat with a pop. Xie Xuanchen pulled out the sword, with the blood of Beirong people still dripping on it, and pointed it straight at the imperial envoy, “For the sake that you are from our Ye Dynasty, I will spare your life. Go back and tell Xie Rui(3) that such a coward is not worthy of being the Emperor of Ye.”
(Y/N: The Emperor’s given name.)
After saying that, his eyes changed and he said with murderous intent, “Get out.”
