When Wei Mingcheng led the army inside the city to help the army, the 50,000 strong Cang Lang City army had left with defeat. They gradually disappeared at the end of the horizon.
Wei Mingcheng came before Su Hong, got off his horse and knelt with one hand cupped. "General, thank you for coming to our aid. I am Wei Mingcheng, deputy general of Jian An City. ”
Su Hong came down, spread out his hands to help Wei Mingcheng up. "I'm just an ordinary person, I can't accept the general's praise."
"General, that might be presumptuous, but can I ask what your relationship with Lord Wuding is?" Although Wei Mingcheng roughly guessed the answer, he still wanted to confirm his guess.
"Su Mu is my father."
Wei Mingcheng nodded.
Otherwise, no one else could command the black armored cavalry in this world and for a strong army to serve him willingly.
"Brother, this is Zhao Qian's head, take it home to pay homage to father and mother, so that they can rest in peace." Su Zimo came over, handing the head on his waist to Su Hong.
Su Hong took King Yan's head and looked at Su Zimo, all sorts of feelings appearing in his heart.
Patience for 16 years, planning for 16 years, he did not expect that in the end, his younger brother who had to bear the burden of revenge for the blood feud of the Su family.
Su Zimo did not mention the fight in the capital at all.
However, judging from his tired appearance and the bloodstains on his body, Su Hong knew that he must have gone through a very violent battle in the capital. He just got back alive.
"Did the king really die?"
Wei Mingcheng looked at King Yan's head and let out a soft mutter. His eyes suddenly shone and he looked towards Su Hong, speaking in a serious voice. "General Su, since King Yan is dead, we are all willing to help you become a king in Jian An City. We can attack the capital, and clear the name of Lord Wuding! ”
Although King Yan had covered up the tragedy 16 years ago, in the hearts of the soldiers, they did not believe that Su Mu would rebel.
Given Su Mu's influence and status back then, if he wanted to rebel and ascend the throne, he had plenty of other opportunities to do so.
Uncle Zheng and the others gasped at his words.
If Su Hong wanted to ascend the throne, this was the best chance. King Yan is dead and the State of Yan is in chaos. Su Hong was able to utilize this battle to establish a good reputation in Jian An City.
After he ascended the throne, Su Hong was able to reveal his identity. Given the influence of Lord Wuding back then, there would definitely be someone among the 16 city lords in Yan Country who would actually submit to his authority. It is possible to unify the Yan State!
At the thought of this, Uncle Zheng whispered, "Young Master, this is a rare opportunity."
Liu Yu and the others looked at Su Hong with anticipation, waiting for his answer.
Su Zimo did not comment. No matter what her brother decided, she would support him unconditionally.
Su Hong smiled after being silent for a moment, shaking his head. “I thank you all for your support and love. I don't have that ambition. Sorry to disappoint you all. ”
Uncle Zheng and the others looked disappointed.
"General Su .." Wei Mingcheng wanted to persuade him, but Su Hong waved his hand to stop him.
Su Hong said, “When there is a war, those who suffer are the innocent people in Yan Country. At that time, many people would become poor and homeless, and be separated from their families or orphaned. As Zimo said, if I sacrifice the lives of innocent people to satisfy my own ambitions, how will I be different from Luo Tianwu? ”
Su Hong stopped before cupping his fist towards Wei Mingcheng, “General Wei, I must return to Ping Yang City to worship my father and mother. Say our farewell here."
With that, Su Hong mounted the horse and led the 5,000 black armored cavalry back to Ping Yang City.
Wei Mingcheng and the other soldiers stood there for a long time staring at Su Hong's back as he left.
…
Ping Yang City, the backyard of the Su family residence.
Su Hong, Su Zimo and Su Xiaoning knelt before the grave. King Yan's head was placed in front.
Su Xiaoning was crying.
Su Hong was crying too.
For many years, Su Zimo had never seen her brother cry.
Even when he failed to kill King Yan, Su Hong was only discouraged, but he never cried.
Su Zimo did not cry. After taking the time to worship his parents, he got up calmly and left the Su family residence, returning to the cultivation field immediately.
There was a glint of disappointment in Su Zimo's eyes upon entering the cultivation field.
It was empty in the farm. Die Yue does not exist.
Su Zimo stood at the same spot for a long time before taking a deep breath. He seems to have made a decision. He returned to the backyard of the Su family residence, glanced at Song Qi, and turned to walk out.
Song Qi noticed him and quickly chased after.
"Second Young Master, is there something you want to tell me?" Song Qi asked softly.
After a short silence, Su Zimo took out a golden badge and handed it to Song Qi, saying, "This is the Sky Treasure Gold Badge."
Song Qi was shocked.
To him, the Sky Treasure Gold Badge was something unattainable!
Many Qi Refinement Fighters would not be able to possess the Sky Bronze Bronze Badge until the day they died, despite the Sky Treasure Gold Badge being two levels higher.
"Second Young Master, what does this mean?" Song Qi hurriedly asked.
Su Zimo said in a gloomy voice, “After my older brother finished with my parents worship, take everyone in the Su family to Cang Lang City and hide in the Sky Treasure Pavilion for a while. Don't come out now! As for the 5,000 black armored cavalry, split them into small groups and disperse them for now. Don't stay together."
Song Qi had never seen Su Zimo so gloomy and solemn, speaking in a deep and solemn tone.
Song Qi was agitated as he asked. "Second Young Master, did something happen? Does the Su family have some stronger enemies? "
"I killed several Qi Refinement Warriors and offended the clans in the capital. The clan will find their way here in no time. "
Su Zimo did not choose to hide the truth.
The reason why he was able to escape from the capital was because there was no Foundation Forming Foundation from the Joyful Clan.
Now that the Joyful Clan had suffered great losses, it was impossible for them to take things lying down. Perhaps, some Foundation Establishment Cultivators had departed for Ping Yang City and were already on their way!
Song Qi realized the seriousness of the situation.
If a human offended a cultivation clan, one would die a light death or involve the entire family!
"Second Young Master, where are you going? Wouldn't it be better for you to be with all of us to the Sky Treasure Pavilion and hide there for a while? ” Song Qi asked.
Su Zimo remained silent.
Song Qi's heart sank. He suddenly thought of a possibility and exclaimed in shock. "A-are you going to stop the Foundation Establishment Foundation from the cultivation clan?"
Su Zimo said softly, "If I don't die, the cultivation clan will never give up. The Su Family could not possibly hide in the Treasure Pavilion for their entire lives. Once the Su family appeared, they would be hunted down and no one would be able to escape. "
"In addition, seven days have passed since the death of King Yan. Given the walking speed of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they might have already reached. If no one stops them, they will chase after us even before the Su family reaches the Sky Treasure Pavilion in Cang Lang City. ”
"But, Second Young Master …"
"Son's sister, don't frown. I may not be dead. I might even exterminate the clan. ” Su Zimo smiled, put on a strong face.
Song Qi sighed, not saying anything more.
Song Qi knew very well that Su Zimo had made the right decision. But this was actually using his own life to protect everyone in the Su family!
To stop the Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it was tantamount to looking dead.
Su Zimo had no hope of survival.
Su Zimo took out a storage bag from her clothes. This was taken from the one-handed Qi Refinement Warrior. He handed it to Song Qi, patted him on the shoulder, saying in a low voice. "I will leave .. the Su family to you."
With that, Su Zimo turned to leave.
It's starting to snow.
This is the first snow in early winter.
