Chapter 908 - 904: No Escape
The six tightly shut carved wooden doors of Luohong Tower remained motionless, even the faintest breeze failed to enter, leaving only the sound of nocturnal insects and the whisper of the wind through the open windows.
"Good! Good!" The Emperor was furious, his bloodshot eyes scouring for a handy weapon, "I will do it myself! I will personally execute this treacherous minister and traitor."
Bai Qingyan and the Eldest Princess coldly observed the Emperor, who was on the verge of insanity, their eyes equally aloof.
"Calm your anger, Your Majesty!" Gao Demao clung desperately to the Emperor’s legs, pleading, "Your Majesty, the great tide has turned! The great tide has turned! Who can be a match for the battle-hardened Princess of Zhen?"
The clouds covering the moon dispersed with the wind, revealing a bright moon that illuminated the clashing weapons, the deafening sounds of battle, and the blood flowing like rivers in Luohong City...
The hundred soldiers Bai Qingyan brought into Luohong City rushed towards the city gates as Bai Qingyan entered Luohong Tower, engaging Qin Shangzhi’s forces to breach the tightly shut gates of Luohong City.
And today... the army led by Bai Jinxiu and Lin Kangle, escorting Bai Qingyan to Luohong City, appeared legitimately beneath the city gates. The army did not light their torches; the night became the cover for the Zhou Kingdom’s mighty forces. The Jin soldiers atop the city walls could only hear the sound of military flags flapping in the wind but could not see how many Zhou soldiers were standing in the thick darkness.
Bai Jinxiu, clad in silver armor, stood at the forefront on horseback, her sharp gaze fixed intently on the brightly lit city tower.
Suddenly, chaos erupted on the city tower, the torches flickered, and the guards hurriedly ran down from the tower.
