Hearing what Cang Qingtian said, Xiahou Qi remembered what Fengyue said to him and couldn't help but frown.

"Whose surname is the princess of Yelan Kingdom?"

"Brother Xiahou already has the answer to this question, doesn't he? That woman claims to be Brother Xiahou's princess. She has fascinated my incompetent prince brother so much that she doesn't want to listen to anyone. Come to occupy the border town, I have no choice but to come with them." Cang Qingtian sighed and said helplessly.

If Cang Qingtian said this, it is true.

Xiao Ruyan actually survived and became the princess of Yelan Kingdom, helping Yelan Kingdom to seize the city of Wansheng Kingdom. What on earth was she thinking?

"Then do you have any news about Shen Changyi? Has he been killed?" Xia Houqi asked another question that he was very concerned about.

Hearing this, Cang Qingtian was slightly startled, and then said:

"General Shen is not dead, just..."

Cang Qingtian didn't know how to explain Shen Changyi's current situation to Xia Houqi.

"Just tell me. I just want to know how he is doing now."

Seeing Cang Qingtian's hesitation, Xia Houqi roughly guessed that even if Shen Changyi didn't die, his end would not be too good.

"General Shen, his martial arts skills were abolished and one of his legs was broken. He is now imprisoned in the dark room of the city tower." Cang Qingtian told Xia Houqi the truth.

When he heard Cang Qingtian say that Shen Changyi's martial arts was abolished, the expression on Xia Houqi's face did not change. But when he heard that he had broken a leg, his pupils dilated slightly, showing a surprised look.

Shen Changyi is such a proud person. If his martial arts skills are abolished, he will be frustrated for a long time, then having a leg broken will simply make his life worse than death.

"Who did it?" Xia Houqi's face darkened and he asked.

"It's the Crown Princess." Cang Qingtian raised his head and looked into Xia Houqi's eyes, trying to see what his expression was.

Sure enough, when he said the name of the real murderer, the look of self-blame on Xia Houqi's face became even worse, and he was a little shocked.

It's Xiao Ruyan again!

If she hates him, even if she comes for him, why should she target the innocent people in the border town and Shen Changyi? What had they done wrong to deserve to be treated like this by her!

"What's going on with the tigers in the city over there? Are the people in the city safe?" Xia Houqi asked.

"The tiger was also brought by the Crown Princess. I don't know what means she used to make the wild beasts listen to her and be driven by her. She ordered the tiger to guard the border of the city wall. Anyone who tried to invade the border town has already died. As for the people. I'm sorry, I couldn't stop the prince's brother from slaughtering the city."

When Xia Houqi heard the word 'massacre', his steps staggered, and his eyes were full of anger.

"Cang Qingtian! How would you feel if this king also went to your Yelan Kingdom to burn, kill, loot and massacre the city? The two sides are fighting, and if they don't kill the servants, won't you even spare the common people? What harm can they do to you? What threat?" Xia Houqi grabbed Cang Qingtian's collar and asked.

"So I surrender to you because I want to prevent the situation from getting worse. The Yelan Kingdom is sorry for the Wansheng Kingdom for the massacre of the city. Now we should find a way to stop them. As far as I know, there should be people hiding in the city. Yue If it is resolved early, their lives will be safe."

Cang Qingtian was unable to refute a word, so he could only try to persuade Xia Houqi to calm down and think more about the people who were still alive.

Xia Houqi took a deep breath and then said:

"I have brought ten thousand troops this time. If it is like what you said, I will launch a battle immediately after dawn. This matter cannot be reconciled and there is no room for negotiation!" Xia Houqi said angrily said. "Brother Xiahou Qiong, calm down! If we start a war, you won't get any benefits! It will only make the losses more severe!"

When Cang Qingtian heard Xia Houqi said that the war would begin at dawn, he immediately panicked and quickly stopped his impulse. He could understand his anger and determination to retake the border town, but starting a war was the last resort.

"If we don't start a war, what do you think we should do? Do you want me to watch those people die miserably?" Xia Houqi sneered, his face full of ridicule.

"In this way, you go into the city with me now. When you see the situation in the city during the day, you will understand. If you still want to start a war the next day, I will not stop you." Cang Qingtian said with a calm face.

After hearing this, Xia Houqi decided to give Cang Qingtian another chance. If he couldn't give himself a reasonable reason, war would be inevitable.

After seeing Xia Houqi calm down a little, Cang Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was still a chance to recover.

The two of them stayed in the City God's Temple until it got light, and then sneaked into the border city.

As soon as he climbed up the city wall, Xia Houqi saw the tiger in Fengyue's mouth, and his expression changed slightly.

Several tigers gathered together and were eating human corpses. Seeing this, Xia Houqi's face turned dark.

"Brother Xiahou, don't be excited. Follow me into the city first."

Seeing that his face was getting more and more ugly, Cang Qingtian quickly comforted him. Xia Houqi followed Cang Qingtian into the city with a cold face and said nothing.

When they entered the main city, soldiers from the Yelan Kingdom came out and walked around, looking for ordinary people who were hiding.

"How many soldiers from Yelan Kingdom are in the city?" Xiahou Qi asked coldly.

"There are only five thousand in the city, but they are different from ordinary soldiers. They can't feel pain. If they actually fight on the battlefield, it will be very disadvantageous for you."

"What does it mean to not feel pain?" As long as we are human, how can we not feel pain?

What's more, so many people still don't feel pain.

"This was also caused by the Crown Princess. She gave these soldiers some medicine that caused their pain to be much duller than that of ordinary people. If you don't believe it, take a closer look." Cang Qingtian lowered his voice and said to Xia Houqi.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi also began to carefully observe the differences between these soldiers.

One of the soldiers found a hiding man from the straw. The man struggled hard, then took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed the arm that grabbed him.

There was no change in the expression on the stabbed soldier's face. He then knocked the man unconscious and threw him onto the cart behind him, where he was pushed away by specialized personnel.

"Where will these people be taken?" Xia Houqi asked.

"Don't worry, after the first massacre of the city, many people stood up to oppose it, so now the prince brother will not kill anyone anymore, but will only lock them up to threaten you at the critical moment. Once you attack the city, the prince brother will I will immediately order these captured people to be killed, so this is the main reason why I oppose your attack on the city." Cang Qingtian sighed helplessly.
