Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 152 Pervasive
"Your Highness! Twenty or thirty powerful individuals have infiltrated, and their target is most likely Your Highness!"

As soon as the sound was heard, a powerful person on the beam reported it. It was not a secret message and everyone present could hear it.

"what?!"

"What? This happened?"

"Humph! Are you really underestimating that there is no one in our army?"

Everyone was shocked, and many people spoke out with different thoughts. Even Sun Shihan, who was usually steady and taciturn, had a slightly changed expression and could not help but shout angrily.

Assassinating enemy leaders and high-ranking officials is nothing new. Instead, it is a common tactic that is highly profitable and can solve the problem once and for all.

Capture the thief first and capture the king!
However, assassinations during large armies, when two armies are engaged in battle, are extremely rare. This can easily lead to assassins like the strong and powerful being trapped in the army. Do they really think the army is just for show?!

This battle was special. Most of the Shangliang army's attendants and powerful men ran away, which made the high-ranking officials such as the King of Shangliang dare not show up. It was better to stay safe in the battle formation!

The Sui army's move clearly showed contempt and bullying of the Liang army. Did they think they had no powerful men?

It’s not like all the strong and powerful men in Shangliang Army have run away, so is it so easy to assassinate them?
Jiang Yuanchao smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's probably because there are no strong men on the front line. The Sui army really thinks our army has no powerful people..."

"..."

Everyone, including Shen Faxing, Yin Qian and others, were speechless.

In the last battle in the south of the city, many strong men were killed, and even the personal guards of King Shangliang were crippled and almost destroyed.

It would be better not to send any powerful people to help in this battle. If more people die in the battle, we will be completely gone...

Those strong ones don’t dare and don’t want to fight, and we can’t force them to fight or assign them, as it will easily backfire!

"Humph!"

Shen Faxing snorted with a gloomy expression, then strode out of the hall first.

Being in the hinterland, surrounded by a large army and with all the generals and attendants there, Shen Faxing naturally has the confidence to protect himself, otherwise he would be unworthy of being a king!

The vast courtyard was densely packed with people...

The majority of them are the hundreds of surviving Tianmen guards, and the rest are elite or strong men such as the generals' personal guards and bodyguards. There are also many strong men and elite archers who appear on the surrounding roofs, trees, etc., ready to go!
At the gate of the courtyard, there were twenty or thirty people surrounded by many soldiers and strong men. They were resisting bloody battles with great momentum, and it was obvious that their cultivation was not low!

"The Demon Sect? How dare the Demon Sect collude with the remnants of the Sui Dynasty to assassinate this king?!"

As soon as Shen Faxing observed them, he recognized several of them and shouted in surprise, shock, anger and resentment.

Although Shen Faxing came from the aristocratic Shen family of Wu Commandery and was renowned for his integrity, he had collaborated directly or indirectly with the Demon Sect since his uprising, but at least he hadn't deliberately targeted them. Sometimes, he even turned a blind eye, believing himself to be friendly. Who would have thought that the Demon Sect would now assassinate him?!

As he spoke, everyone in the hall followed him out, and most of them came out...

"Heavenly Magic Field!"

As soon as Shen Faxing finished speaking, Yin Wan'er signaled to the Demon Sect members, and a surge of momentum erupted. Invisible ripples and auras that were difficult to see with the naked eye suddenly swept across...

"Why don't you do it?!!!"

With a cold and sharp shout, the soldiers and strong men who were densely surrounding the Demon Sect were blown away and pushed back as if they were hit by a strong gust of wind!

What we are waiting for is the appearance of King Shangliang!
"Hey..."

Yin Wan'er rushed out like a ghost, stepping on the heads of the densely packed soldiers. The silk in her hand shot out like a snake, directly towards Shen Faxing at the hall entrance. The tip of the silk was a razor-sharp blade. Xi Muyu, Mu Guxuan, Li Jiuyin, and others followed closely behind, carrying the iron-blooded military might of a mountain and a sea. They soared several meters high, slashing over the soldiers' heads like a falcon, and swooped down directly at Shen Faxing and the others!
"Heavenly Heart Storm!"

"Soul-Chasing Sword!"

"Cold Light Slash!"

As the Demon Sect erupted, Shen Faxing suddenly felt a surge of aura...

Civilian official Sun Shihan, general Liu Ziyi, and two personal guards suddenly took action...

Sun Shihan didn't move at all, but his clothes and hair moved without wind, and he looked like a madman. He used the famous divine cultivation method... Tianxin Storm, a group attack.

Liu Ziyi and his two powerful personal assistants attacked Shen Faxing together, with their swords shining brightly and their swords auras dazzling!
"How dare you..."

Shen Faxing was horrified. Just as his aura and momentum burst out, his protective aura, precious clothes, and inner armor were cut by a knife. Then... a sword pierced through his chest and went through his body!

"you……"

Shen Faxing turned his head with difficulty, but what he saw was his trusted general who pierced him with a sword... Liu Ziyi!

Liu Ziyi's face was filled with guilt. He shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Your Highness! I'm sorry! The Shangliang Army is doomed now. Why should we continue to resist? Don't blame me... We are originally from the Demon Sect and are just following orders!"

"Uncle Liu (Zi Yi, General Liu)?!!!"

Shen Lun, Jiang Yuanchao and many others were shocked and some of them were so angry that they attacked the four traitors.

However, Yin Wan'er and other powerful demon sect masters followed closely, and the four of them were already quite powerful, so they easily blocked it!
"Stop! Everyone stop!!!"

Shen Faxing was severely injured and restrained. Yin Wan'er's hand, like a snake of silk, twisted and swiftly wrapped around the dazed and heartbroken Shen Lun, pulling him in front of her to block the swarm of spears and sharp blades. She roared with all her might, the sound shaking the void and echoing throughout the City Lord's Mansion...

Yin Qian and Jiang Yuanchao trembled, then abruptly stopped, their expressions changing drastically...

The situation is set. They are scholars and military strategists, not good at fighting. Wouldn't it be courting death if they attack at close range?

I believe Prince Shangliang and the Young Master can understand, right?
"My men! I am Sikong (the self-proclaimed Prince of Shangliang) Sun Shihan... After our southern army's crushing defeat and surrender, Hailing City is now isolated, our army is isolated, surrounded by enemies on all sides, and there is no way out! Prince of Shangliang is stubborn and restless, desperate and mad, determined to fight to the death, and now he even wants to set the city on fire..."

Yin Wan'er glanced at Sun Shihan, who understood and quickly said in a heavy voice, "
"What have we done wrong? What have our people done wrong? We are the people of the Great Sui Dynasty. Now that the Sui army has arrived, they are tolerant and benevolent, willing to accept our surrender and forgive our past mistakes! Why should we fight to the death for those madmen, those madmen who want to burn the city?"

"..."

A number of high-ranking officials were killed, controlled or incapable of action. The soldiers and the powerful men nearby who were densely crowded in the vast courtyard looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do!
However, what Sun Shihan said was not a lie. Many people present knew the situation, including the incident of pouring oil and burning the city.

"Surrender! Struggling is useless! Don't let the Shen family and Prince Shangliang become extinct! Prince Jingwu is kind and virtuous. As long as you cooperate, I can plead for mercy, spare your life, and even lead you into the Holy Gate!"

Yin Wan'er looked at Shen Lun, who was in a daze and seemed to be in a dream, with a smile as beautiful as a flower. Her white and delicate hands grabbed his shoulders like golden hooks and iron claws, and she spoke slowly in a sweet and low voice like a dream!
"you……"

“Crack… click! Click…”

Shen Lun woke up as if from a dream, his face flushed, his eyes blazing with anger. He was about to curse, but a sharp pain suddenly came over him, and the bones in his shoulder cracked, forcing him to swallow back the words that were on the tip of his tongue...

"Ha! Ha... This palace is rarely kind, so I advise you, young master, to think carefully before you speak, and cherish your life!"

The voice was as intoxicating as a silver bell, and Yin Wan'er smiled gently and reminded him.
