"What's going on? So many people?"

Stepping outside, Xiuli's pupils constricted as he saw a dense crowd of people heading towards the city gate.

This made his heart skip a beat, and a hint of joy rose within him. He couldn't help but mutter, "What's going on? Could it be that there's a rebellion in Great Liang, and so many people are fleeing?"

If that's the case, then Great Liang will inevitably descend into chaos, which would be Frostwest's opportunity.

If a rebellion breaks out in Great Liang, Lin Yi will have no chance to attack Frostwest, and he might not even be able to protect his own country. That would be great.

"Rebel?"

Amu frowned slightly; there shouldn't be such a coincidence.

The two hesitated for a moment, then followed the crowd and soon reached their destination. Looking at the sea of people on the city wall, Xiuli frowned; this didn't seem like a rebellion.

Without further hesitation, he gave a few instructions to the translator accompanying him, who immediately went to gather information.

"My lord, this is the southwestern army of Great Liang returning in triumph. They have annihilated the entire Zhennan Dynasty, and now the Emperor of Great Liang is personally welcoming them and bestowing rewards upon Great Liang..." the translator explained after returning.

The army that annihilated Zhennan?

Upon hearing this, Xiuli's face froze. So that's how it is. He had been happy for nothing.

Come to think of it, it's been quite some time since the Great Liang destroyed Zhennan. Even if they needed to completely wipe out the entire Zhennan, they would have already done so.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I want to see what kind of army can make Zhennan so vulnerable!"

The army of Great Liang has always been known for its strength, and this army that annihilated Zhennan was the strongest among the strong. Therefore, he was very curious about what kind of army could be so terrifying.

It would be a real shame not to see it with your own eyes.

"Oh well!"

Amu sighed and didn't object; he had completely given up.

If we can negotiate with Great Liang, then let's negotiate. If we really can't reach an agreement, then let's just destroy them completely. Anyway, I've already done my best. I can only blame my emperor for being too reckless.

However, he still whispered a reminder: " Xiuli, this is the territory of Great Liang. You must keep a low profile and absolutely cannot give Great Liang any more excuses."

"Don't worry, I understand." Xiuli glanced at him and said coldly.

After greeting the officials of the Court of Diplomatic Reception Ceremonial, he and his group followed the flow of people.

After walking for quite some time, we finally arrived at the city gate.

He glanced ahead and his pupils contracted. A bright yellow dragon banner fluttered fiercely in the wind. Xiuli exclaimed hoarsely, " The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Banner!"

This is Lin Yi's flag, which means Lin Yi has come too!

Before coming, he did some cramming on the knowledge of the Great Liang. The Great Liang had several kinds of flags, including the Blue Pigeon flag representing peace, the blood-red flag representing slaughter, and the golden dragon flag representing the emperor.

Now that this golden dragon flag is here, there is no doubt that Lin Yi is also here.

Xiuli pushed his way forward and soon spotted the figure Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Banner. His gaze sharpened, and he exclaimed, "What? The Emperor of Great Liang is really that young?"

He was starting to have doubts about life. Although he had heard that the Emperor of Great Liang was young, he was still far too young.

Being young is one thing, but what's with that arrogant, domineering aura? It's far stronger than my brother's; it's an overwhelming, domineering presence.

Why!

Seeing him like this, Amu couldn't help but sigh.

When he first met Lin Yi, he was also filled with doubt about life, but there was nothing he could do. Lin Yi was such a prodigy, far more powerful than his own emperor.

At this moment, both of them couldn't help but compare Lin Yi and Ashina Tiandu, and the result left them somewhat frustrated.

The Emperor of Great Liang single-handedly subjugated the entire East, making him arguably the most powerful man in the East, unmatched by anyone.

Although their own emperor was also a rebel, he died before he could even begin his campaign, and his rebellion was suppressed before he could even unleash his power. That wasn't all; Frostwest was also invaded by two powerful forces, leaving them utterly overwhelmed and with a complete mess to clean up.

The difference between the two is like heaven and earth!

The two sighed, both seeing the offense directed at their emperor in their own eyes. But they had no other choice now but to hope that the emperor could resolve everything; otherwise, the Great Liang might swallow up Frostwest.

Ah, it's all fate!

While the two remained silent, the army of Great Liang, returning to the capital in triumph, finally arrived.

From afar, the overwhelming sound of horses' hooves could be heard, and the billowing dust swept in, carrying an indomitable aura of iron and blood, instantly turning the scene into a grim atmosphere.

Hiss!

Seeing this bloodthirsty aura, Xiuli couldn't help but gasp. Although these people had no blood on them, they exuded a chilling killing intent that sent shivers down one's spine.

Even without ever having faced them head-on, he could imagine how terrifying they were on the battlefield.

Especially the enemy's general in front of them, this man was truly terrifying.

The fact that the other party only glanced at him out of the corner of their eye made this seasoned veteran feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy. This was not only a matter of superior strength, but also an instinctive fear.

He couldn't help but ask the translator, "Who exactly is this person?"

The translator glanced at the purple-gold crown on the other person's head and the halberd in his hand, and whispered, "According to Shuangxi's information, among the generals of Daliang, only General Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, wields the halberd."

Xue Rengui's identity has not yet been revealed, but Lü Bu has already made a name for himself, becoming All Under Heaven since he destroyed the Jackal Kingdom.

Lü Fengxian!

Sure enough, upon hearing this name, Xiuli constricted, and he said with a wry smile, "What a Lü Fengxian! No wonder he could kill the troublemakers of the Jackal Kingdom without them being able to fight back. He really is a ruthless man."

There are probably very few people in the entire West who could defeat him head-on!

He knew perfectly well that although he was quite skilled, he didn't even have the courage to make a move against Lü Bu, which spoke volumes!

" Lü Bu really that strong?"

Amu frowned slightly. He also felt that this person was terrifying, but without truly experiencing the other party's strength, it was not appropriate to make too many comments.

On the contrary, it was the enemy's army that made him somewhat fearful.

He couldn't help but whisper, "This army is probably even more terrifying than Abaddon's Beast Legion. It's a good thing there are only ten thousand here; if they all came back, their sheer force would be overwhelming!"
