"Hahaha..." The people behind the Crown Prince all burst out laughing despite themselves.
"What are you saying, Elder Qin? The grudge between the Immortal-Gathering Palace and Young Master Tang can indeed be settled separately. Let the Imperial Family and the Left Chancellor's Residence settle their own grudge, too." Laughter rang out, and Zi Xian, dressed in splendid robes, walked over alongside Yu Qingyun.
Qin Shi's pupils abruptly contracted, and his heart gave an involuntary jolt. His face instantly darkened as he said gravely, "City Lord Zi, Sect Master Yu, do you intend to make enemies of our Immortal-Gathering Palace?"
"You guessed right." Zi Xian did not deny it.
A flash of panic crossed Qin Shi's face. His own forces were powerful, and with the elite troops of the Left Chancellor's Residence, even if the Imperial Family attacked head-on, fighting their way out through a bloody path would have been no problem.
But now, with Purple Bamboo City and Rakshasa Gate joining the Imperial Family, the enemy had six times as many experts as they did. Faced with such a disparity in strength, Qin Shi did not have even a ten-percent chance of breaking out.
"Old man, do you see the situation clearly now? I don't care what palace you're from-we'll beat you back into the womb today! Brothers, kill!" Du Shu roared from the crowd, and the Imperial Army immediately advanced.
"Stop! I have something to say!" the Left Chancellor roared.
"Don't give him a chance to make excuses! Kill!" Du Shu's voice rang out again, and the Imperial Army's armored cavalry instantly engulfed the Left Chancellor's Residence.
The Left Chancellor: "..."
Zi Xian: "..."
The Crown Prince: "..."
Kun He: "..."
The generals were collectively speechless. The Left Chancellor could not have escaped even if he had sprouted wings,
