Upon hearing the discussion among the four powerful ministers, including Feng Bo'e, Murong Fu's face had turned ashen.
Earlier, with the support of Qiao Feng and Xuan Ci, he was able to kill Lu Bing, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty's Embroidered Uniform Guard.
He had originally planned to use this incident to promote himself after the war, thereby enhancing his reputation and prestige.
Who would have thought that after this great battle, Wang Yang's incredible record would be so astonishing.
The martial arts masters of the Ming Dynasty who died at his hands were all top-notch super strongmen.
Individually speaking, Murong Fu would be no match for either of them.
But Wang Yang actually killed them all!
"Coo coo..."
After thinking for a moment, Murong Fu couldn't help but shudder.
Thinking back to Wang Yang's valiant achievements, I felt a chill run down my spine.
Before this, he had always looked down on Wang Yang and was constantly at odds with him.
He even thought about finding an opportunity to teach Wang Yang a lesson in front of others, and maybe he could even use Wang Yang to climb to the top.
But now, after learning of Wang Yang's true strength, Murong Fu realized how ignorant he had been.
With Wang Yang's strength, killing him would be an easy task.
"No wonder he became the leader of the martial arts alliance!"
"This guy... he's been hiding his true strength all along!"
"How did he do that? How can someone so young have such strength?"
Murong Fu sighed inwardly, thinking of Wang Yang and finding it utterly unbelievable.
"Whoosh!"
For a moment, he let out a long sigh, then turned his gaze toward where Wang Yang was.
At this moment, Wang Yang was surrounded by a group of people at the main table.
Looking at him, Murong Fu felt very unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
She thought it best not to provoke Wang Yang in the future.
If you can't beat them, you should at least be able to avoid them, right?
"Alliance Leader Wang, it is thanks to your foresight in anticipating that the martial arts masters of the Ming Dynasty would launch a general offensive that we were able to wait in comfort for the enemy to attack!"
"Come, I, Qiao Feng, toast you!"
At the main table, Qiao Feng held a large bowl of wine and looked at Wang Yang with a heroic air.
Wang Yang smiled slightly and said neither humbly nor arrogantly:
"Vice Leader Qiao is too kind. I am merely speculating based on the situation."
With that, the two men picked up their wine bowls and drank them down in one gulp.
Next, Huang Yaoshi, Zhou Botong, Ming Cult, Wudang, and other martial arts figures stepped forward to toast Wang Yang.
"Alliance Leader Wang is truly a celestial being!"
"Even the Iron-Blooded Marquis fell to the Alliance Leader. I admire you!"
"More than just Iron-Blooded Marquis"
"Zuo Lengchan, Yu Huatian, the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi, Yagyu Tajima-no-kami...aren't these all renowned masters of the Ming Dynasty?"
"Leader, I'll drink this bowl of wine to the last drop, in celebration of you!"
"To be able to fight alongside Alliance Leader Wang is the greatest honor of my life!"
"Alliance Leader Wang, I am willing to serve you faithfully!"
"..."
In an instant, a large number of martial arts figures from the Song Dynasty surrounded Wang Yang, constantly expressing their admiration for him.
Wang Yang remained calm and extremely humble.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiruo walked up to Wang Yang with a glass of wine in her hand.
"Leader Wang, this humble woman offers you a toast."
"Thank you for your efforts in leading us to defend Tahu City and defeat the Ming army!"
"To restore peace and tranquility to the people of the Great Song Dynasty."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yang smiled slightly and replied:
"Miss Zhou, you flatter me. This is all I should do!"
As he spoke, Wang Yang raised his glass and drank with Zhou Zhiruo.
"Cough cough..."
Little did anyone know that Zhou Zhiruo couldn't drink alcohol. She choked on her drink as soon as she took a sip, and her eyes welled up with tears.
This sight immediately caused the assembled heroes of the martial arts world to burst into laughter.
Zhao Min was happy to see this.
Although she was not from the Song Dynasty, she was happy to see so many masters from the Ming Dynasty perish here.
In this way, there's not much to worry about on the Yuan side.
Seeing Zhou Zhiruo toasting Wang Yang, she was not to be outdone and directly raised her wine glass to lean in.
"Leader, I'd like to offer you a toast as well."
Looking in front of and behind the mirror, Zhao Min said with a smile.
Wang Yang was taken aback and looked at Zhao Min curiously, asking, "Princess, why are you offering me a toast?"
As Wang Yang asked his question, all the martial arts practitioners present looked at Zhao Min.
They already knew Zhao Min's identity.
Although she was taken in as a maid by Wang Yang, the label of Princess of Dayuan always remained on her.
Despite being stared at by everyone, Zhao Min remained calm and smiled serenely:
"I respect your magnanimity and loyalty, Alliance Leader!"
"And your strength, Alliance Leader!"
"A person like you, Alliance Leader, would inspire awe in anyone, wouldn't they?"
Upon hearing Zhao Min's reply, the martial arts figures present nodded in agreement, having no objection to what she said.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yang smiled calmly and then drank a cup with Zhao Min.
Next, Zhao Min, claiming to be Wang Yang's maid, continued to serve by his side.
As she drank, she became somewhat intoxicated, and with bleary eyes, she looked at Wang Yang and said:
"Wang Yang!"
"From now on, all grudges between us are wiped clean."
"I... Minmin Temur, from now on I am willing to be your maid and serve you faithfully!"
"How about it?"
Seeing Zhao Min say such things with a dreamy expression, Wang Yang also laughed heartily:
"Ha ha!"
"Alright! I, the Alliance Leader, agree!"
Meanwhile, at a table not far away, Shangguan Haitang was drinking alone, looking sullen.
For others, tonight is a celebration.
But for her, it was extremely difficult.
It should be noted that she herself was the number one secret agent of the Ming Dynasty's Dragon Guard Manor.
He had infiltrated Tahu City to gather information, but unexpectedly, he was spotted by Wang Yang and captured on the spot.
That was bad enough, but Wang Yang even took her in as a maid.
Originally, Shangguan Haitang never thought that Wang Yang would have such great abilities.
But in the previous battle, she realized that she had greatly underestimated Wang Yang.
Whether in terms of strategy or strength, Wang Yang is ridiculously strong.
"He killed my godfather!"
"There are still so many martial arts masters in the Ming Dynasty."
"The Ming Dynasty suffered a complete defeat in this battle because of him!"
The more Shangguan Haitang thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.
Unfortunately, everything was already set in stone, and she alone was simply not enough to change anything.
...
On the other side, Murong Fu was also sullen.
In particular, seeing Wang Yang surrounded by everyone like stars around the moon filled him with extreme envy and jealousy.
"If this person doesn't exist, then shouldn't I be the one being surrounded by people?"
Murong Fu sighed inwardly, feeling extremely resentful at the thought of Wang Yang stealing his thunder.
However, this changed after learning of Wang Yang's true strength.
Murong Fu learned his lesson and dared not provoke Wang Yang again.
After all, the battle is now over, and the outcome is already decided.
If he continues to provoke Wang Yang as before, Wang Yang might actually take action against him.
