Mo Chen slowly turned into a small inn, chose a room, placed Gu Liyan on the bed, and then slipped out without a second thought.
As night fell, Shangguan Honghuo's army had already reached the gates of Shuyi Kingdom.
Duan Zhengxiu stood on the city wall, looking at the handsome man sitting on horseback and frowning slightly. This man was none other than Shangguan Honghuo—the king of the Warrior Kingdom!
While Duan Zhengxiu was sizing up Shangguan Honghuo, Shangguan Honghuo was also sizing up Duan Zhengxiu.
"The ruler of Shuyi Kingdom is indeed extraordinary!" Shangguan Honghuo said with a smile to Duan Zhengxiu on the city wall.
Duan Zhengxiu's expression was cold. "King of the Warrior Kingdom, what is the meaning of your bringing your army into my royal city?"
Shangguan Honghuo smiled slightly, "King Duan, there's no need to worry. This time, I brought the entire army of the Warrior Kingdom. I originally intended to attack the Mighty Dragon Kingdom, but seeing that the Mighty Dragon Kingdom was entangled by the Dragon's Resentment, I gave up that idea and changed my route to the Kingdom of Shuyi—to surrender!"
Upon learning that the Kingdom of Samurai had come to surrender, Duan Zhengxiu's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed. Without a word, he waved his hand and opened the city gates wide, inviting Shangguan Honghuo into the main hall and hosting a banquet to warmly entertain him.
Shangguan Honghuo had some doubts about Duan Zhengxiu letting him into the city without any suspicion. However, after entering the city, he found that the whole city had already become a "battlefield". All the shops and people had moved away, and countless troops were waiting to surround the city with swords drawn.
Duan Zhengxiu came down from the city wall and greeted him with a smile, saying, "Shangguan Honghuo, you are indeed different from Qingge of Weilong Kingdom. You have foresight and wisdom. I can tell you with certainty that this is the best choice you have ever made in your life!"
Shangguan Honghuo didn't say anything, he just smiled.
Di Moyue, standing to the side, was already frightened by the soldiers filling the city. She knew that Shuyi Kingdom was recruiting soldiers today, but she did not expect that they had already prepared everything for war!
Fortunately, Shangguan Honghuo came to surrender this time. If he had come to attack the city, the country would likely have been destroyed!
"Brother Shangguan, let's go into the hall!" Duan Zhengxiu smiled insincerely.
Shangguan Honghuo glanced at Di Moyue and said, "This is my guard. May he come into the palace with me?"
"Of course! I still have great respect for Di Moyue, the number one city guard general of the Warrior Kingdom!" Duan Zhengxiu said with a forced smile. He knew that Di Moyue was the culprit who killed Duan Tianqi.
The Kingdom of Shuyi is filled with beautiful women who are also skilled in singing and dancing. Di Moyue was already dazzled by the beauties in front of her.
"If General Di likes her, I will bestow this dancer upon you!" Duan Zhengxiu said with a smile.
Di Moyue looked at Shangguan Honghu with an embarrassed expression. "This, how can I accept this?"
Duan Zhengxiu smiled and looked at Shangguan Honghuo, "Introducing a beautiful woman to General Di, Brother Shangguan shouldn't object, right?"
"Hehe, of course!" Shangguan Hong chuckled and took a sip of wine. His expression suddenly changed. The wine in the cup was the Red Dust Wine!
