Chapter 451 I don’t want this kingdom!
Xiyan was startled and subconsciously tightened her palm to hold the pill. When she looked up at Helian Feng, he didn't say another word. He just let go of her hand, turned around, raised his sword, and faced Xiao Beicheng.
As the sword flashed, Xiao Beicheng's voice was heard amidst the sound of weapons clashing:
"Helian Feng, you're looking for death!"
The two men instantly entangled in a fight, swords flashed and murderous aura filled the air.
Helian Feng's swordsmanship is steady and heavy, while Xiao Beicheng's swordsmanship is sinister and treacherous, and each move hits the vital points directly.
Xiyan stood in place, looking at the two fighting figures, her fingertips feeling slightly cold.
She picked up the pill, took a look at it, and then put it in her mouth.
As for Helian Feng, at this moment, she suddenly believed that he would not harm her.
However, she had been poisoned by the Suoyuan Powder for several days, and it would take at least an hour for her to gradually recover her strength.
…
Suddenly, there was a deafening cry of killing coming from outside the city. The sound was mixed with the clang of swords and horses and the shouts of soldiers, exploding in the night sky like thunder, and even the ground of the imperial garden seemed to be shaking slightly.
Su Qinyao was already uneasy because of the fighting in front of her. When she heard the sound of killing, she was suddenly horrified and her face turned pale.
At this moment, a figure stumbled over. It was Mingying. He looked panicked, and his voice was trembling:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
This sentence was like a huge rock thrown into boiling water, and the originally chaotic battlefield suddenly calmed down.
Both Helian Feng's men and Xiao Beicheng's assassins stopped what they were doing and turned their gazes towards Mingying, their faces filled with astonishment and uneasiness.
Helian Feng had a cold face, suppressed the waves in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
Mingying wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said anxiously:
"Your Majesty, the 50,000 Xiao family soldiers inside the city have suddenly rebelled and are now fighting the soldiers defending the city. The Xiao family soldiers outside have also taken this opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the city. The city defenses are about to collapse. I'm afraid... I'm afraid that Yandu City is about to fall!"
Helian Feng's body shook violently, the sword in his hand trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
He never expected that the 50,000 Xiao family soldiers he had recruited would rebel at this time. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow.
Su Qinyao was also horrified. She staggered back a step and looked at Xiao Beicheng in horror:
"Didn't you say you gave them the bone-eating miasma poison? With that poison restraining them, how could they dare to rebel?"
Xiao Beicheng was startled at first, a trace of panic flashed across his face, his eyes moved rapidly, and then, his sharp eyes suddenly shot towards Xiyan, questioning:
"Was it Xiao Nanyan's plan? He must have used some means to incite those 50,000 troops to rebel, right?"
At this point, Xiyan no longer needed to hide it. She sneered:
"That's right. You were so treacherous that you actually poisoned the soldiers, so Fu Yunqing and the others took advantage of your trick. Chu Jin had already antidote the poison for the soldiers, but they just pretended it wasn't. Even Helian Feng's ascension to the throne was deliberately done by Xiao Nanyan to confuse you. The soldiers were kept in the city so that they could cooperate with the Xiao family army outside the city!"
"Chu Jin is such a despicable bastard! He's the one who ruined everything!" Xiao Beicheng was so angry that he stomped his feet.
He then turned to Helian Feng, a sinister look flashing in his eyes:
"Helian Feng, I advise you to stand on the same front with me now, capture this woman, and use her to threaten Xiao Nanyan to withdraw. Only in this way can we turn defeat into victory, otherwise, all that awaits us is annihilation!"
Su Qinyao didn't care about the old grudge with Xiao Beicheng at this moment. She looked at Helian Feng and urged him urgently:
"Feng'er, the situation is critical right now. This is the only way for us to save Yandu and our lives. Only by capturing this slave girl and forcing Xiao Nanyan to surrender can we have a glimmer of hope!"
Helian Feng stood in front of Xiyan, his back straight.
"I've said before that no one can touch her. Even if I die today, I will never use her as a bargaining chip."
Su Qinyao's face turned pale instantly, and her hand trembled as she pointed at him:
"Helian Feng! Are you crazy? It's already this time, and you're still protecting this troublemaker! She's Xiao Nanyan's person, our mortal enemy! For her, are you going to watch Yandu fall and the Helian family's empire destroyed?"
"If the kingdom must be exchanged for a woman, I don't want it!"
