There was no time to dwell on where Ji Jiangshen had taken all the people out from. Luo Ling gritted his teeth and ordered without even thinking, "Pass on my order, the entire army retreat!"

He was on guard against everything, but he still fell into the trap!

When the soldiers heard Luo Ling's order, they were all stunned, their faces filled with confusion. They had come all the way from the southwest to Lizhou City, and finally entered the palace. Why were they suddenly retreating now?

Luo Ling mounted his horse and was about to ride when a deputy general looked at the group of people still kneeling at the palace gate and asked Luo Ling, "Your Highness, what should we do with these people?"

Luo Ling said without even glancing at him: "Kill!"

The voice was cold to the core, without any obvious murderous intent, but so cold that it made people tremble all over.

After hearing Luo Ling's emotionless command, the group of people kneeling on the ground turned pale in an instant and even forgot to cry.

The deputy general hesitated. It was not that he did not obey orders, but there were babies, children, and old people in that group of people... He couldn't bring himself to do it.

Not to mention the deputy general, even the soldiers couldn't bring themselves to do it. From the southwest to the city of Lizhou, their Luo army had never killed a child or woman.

Seeing that Luo Jun didn't move and was looking at him hesitantly, Luo Ling couldn't help but be startled. She stretched out her hand and rubbed her temples. What happened to him just now? Was he so angry that he lost his mind?

Glancing at the group of people kneeling on the ground, Luo Ling took a deep breath and said, "The elderly, women, and children stay."

After saying this, Luo Ling rode his horse out of the palace.

The whip hit the horse's butt with a crisp sound, and with this crisp sound, more than a hundred lives were lost. After killing the man kneeling in the crowd, Luo Jun followed Luo Ling, leaving behind a group of women, old people and children who were scared pale and crying heartbreakingly.

It's too late after all.

When Luo Ling led the army to the city gate, there was a group of people standing outside the gate, estimated to be about three hundred people, both men and women, all over twenty years old and under forty years old. Their expressions and postures did not seem like they were here to fight, but rather as if they were waiting for something.

Behind them was a team of cavalry, the once feared Lizhou cavalry. It seemed that the cavalry had no intention of taking action, but sat quietly on their horses, waiting for something, just like the people in different clothes standing in front.

The entire Lizhou City has been surrounded by the Royal Ming Guards, and the Luo army has been trapped in the city.

Luo Ling sat on horseback, gazing at the figure in the distance. Honestly, he admired Ji Jiangshen quite a bit. For the woman he loved, he rebelled against all odds. And what about him? Ling Ran had suffered such humiliation, yet he could only take Ling Ran and his family to move to the southwest. Every time he saw his father sighing, his heart ached. Seeing Ling Ran, like a frightened bird, his heart ached.

He swore that he would come back, that he would make Xiao Yun regret it, and that he would live in the imperial city in glory.

Unfortunately, not long after, Xiao Yun was angered to death by Xiao Moyan, and his father passed away soon after. After giving birth to Luo Bai, Ling Ran also left him.

Thinking of this, Luo Ling suddenly felt a little distressed. What had he been doing all these years? He was clearly not a person who cared about power and material gain, yet he had left his and Ling Ran's only daughter in Lizhou City. So many years had passed since then, and now thinking about it... he didn't even know what his daughter looked like now.

I am unworthy of being a son, unworthy of being a father, unworthy of being a husband...
