The Northern Chu can now recuperate and rest, observing from the sidelines.
When the two sides were deadlocked, Huo Xi launched the first attack, and several hundred people surrounded the Dongying Emperor and his entourage. The Dongying Emperor tightly gripped the Second Prince's neck.
Huo Xi took a deep breath, gambling on whether the Japanese Emperor would compromise at the crucial final moment.
Whoosh!
An arrow pierced the left side of the Japanese emperor's chest.
The Japanese emperor looked down at the arrows in disbelief.
Huo Xi was furious and looked at the archer: "Who gave you permission to shoot randomly?"
The archer trembled.
"emperor!"
"emperor!"
Dozens of guards shouted.
The Emperor of Dongying gripped the second prince's neck tightly, increasing the pressure in his hand, as if he would take the second prince away even if it meant his own death.
The second prince was being strangled and struggling desperately.
The two sides engaged in a chaotic battle.
"emperor!"
Japanese reinforcements arrived.

The dust kicked up, and the leader was none other than the Consort Xian's father and brother. He lashed his long whip across the horse's back, and at first glance, there seemed to be at least tens of thousands of people.
