Sincere Heart in Jianghu

C379 Battle Deviation 2

If one were to talk about losing, they would only lose in terms of their determination to win. Losing in terms of spirit, there was no need to criticize the abilities of the experts in the imperial court, and there was no need to prove their loyalty. However, in reality, they had lost.

The young master was calculating his next move. He seemed to have made up his mind. His expression was still indifferent and disdainful.

His last move was about to come out. He looked coldly at the ministers below him, "If no one is willing to try and become the overseer, then I will let Wu Kun take our royal decree!"

This time, no one objected. They had already seen the other party's powerful fighting strength, so no one was willing to risk their own lives as a joke. They were also not willing to be such a scaredy cat.

Time quietly flowed by, and the field became even quieter. After a while, the Emperor passed down an imperial decree appointing Wu Kun as the supervisor of the army, one day he would personally lead his own troops, and meet with Lu Liang at the front of the army camp.

Wu Kun's face did not show fear as he accepted the appointment. Could it be that he really was not afraid of death? Since the opponent was so strong, could he guarantee his safe arrival?

These people were disdainful in their hearts. They believed that he was just a new scapegoat. They believed that the result would be the same. Once they lost their lives, they would see if the emperor had anything else to say.

Until the very last moment, no one would know the true outcome, and even Yang Ming was unable to guess the hidden scheme behind Young Master Long. He knew clearly that Wu Kun and the rest were much weaker than the top ten inner sect experts, and still sent him on his journey.

Both sides, however, had already begun to make preparations for this battle. Loyalty and Brotherhood Sect had already lost a few of their brothers in the previous battle, and although the Ten Protectors and He Yue were fine, each of them still suffered from a certain degree of injury, and their fighting strength had also decreased by a certain degree, but the heroic spirit in their hearts did not weaken in the slightest.

Knowing that the imperial government was about to send someone out again, everyone was secretly in high spirits. No matter how many times they tried, even if they had to sacrifice their lives, they would not be able to fulfill their wishes.

In the eyes of many, Wu Kun and the rest's trip here was a calamity, what kind of medicine is the Emperor trying to sell? Or was he planning something behind the scenes?

Before Wu Kun left, the emperor summoned him to the palace. "These people from the martial arts world are against me. What are your plans for this trip?"

Wu Kun said in a clear voice, "Although they are powerful in their martial arts, their numbers are limited. I have thought of a way to split up and act, I will leave first to let them disguise me as I am sitting in the palanquin, and by the time they realise that I have already arrived at the camp, they will have no way of dealing with me."

"This method of yours isn't too bad. It's just that you'll make them laugh and embarrass me!"

Wu Kun immediately knelt down. "Your majesty, if you want to accomplish something and don't use this plan, it's hard to avoid falling into their trap.

"Naturally, some people know your identity. They have a lot of spies now, so you have to travel alone. If you let them find out, you would lose even more. Don't worry, this time, I will ensure your safety!"

He called Wu Kun over and whispered in his ear.

Wu Kun nodded his head from time to time, his face slowly revealing a relaxed expression. He never thought that the Emperor would set up an even bigger trap, and this time, it was time to truly see the results.

What kind of master was hiding behind all this? What other secrets did he have? How could Wu Kun make it so easy?

This time, there were only forty to fifty people who accompanied them. They were all brothers who were willing to live and die with Wu Kun the day before yesterday.

Compared to the previous few groups of people, they were much less frivolous and nervous. This kind of ease made people feel that it was unexpected, and also made Yang Ming and the others who were secretly monitoring them a little suspicious.

They didn't put up any defenses. Everyone was careless, which made people feel like they were cheating.

After walking for a few days, Yang Ming and the others still did not move easily, as they observed their changes. These people indeed did not seem to have anything special about them, but it seemed that they did not have any sort of trap.

No matter what the other party's intentions were, they could not let them continue onward. Yang Ming's mind was set, he would set up an ambush at a dangerous spot on the ground, and when they got close, he quickly surrounded them.

"Brother Wu Kun, come out!" Yang Ming said to the person in the palanquin.

Wu Kun slowly walked out, "Wu Kun greets Big brother Yang!"

"I've always felt that your trip was suspicious, but after thinking about it, since you and I are old friends, then the emperor knows about our friendship, if we send more people, it would more likely attract our killing intent. In order to avoid more casualties, he has made a reasonable decision, but he should also know, no matter how close our friendship is, he would not let you go to the camp there.

The other party also smiled, "Big brother Yang, do you know who are the people I am traveling with this time? It is a pity that there are many traitorous officials of the imperial court, and we do not have the chance to display our talents. Today, even if we die, they are willing to prove their loyalty and courage in front of the emperor, and we naturally cannot compare to your martial arts skills. However, if we truly fight today, every single one of us will put our lives on the line! "

"Alright, since I've said it like this, I won't take your lives. However, I won't let you go, nor will I let you return to the side of the Emperor. When we fight later on, I will naturally not harm your vital points!"

"Brother Yang, you must not show mercy, these brothers are not afraid of death, kill them if you want, now that we each have our own lords, we can put aside our brotherly feelings, if not, we can just humiliate Wu Kun and the rest of our brothers."

The more they spoke, the harder it was for Yang Ming to do anything, but after all, it was a very important matter. After hesitating for a bit, Yang Ming waved his hand at the people behind him, "Although we are enemies today, for the sake of the past, I alone will be enough.

His expression changed, "Brother Wu, I respect you as a hero, I will not take your life today. This matter is extremely important, and I will not let you go.
