They also recognized the identities of these corpses at a glance - it was obvious that almost all of them were members of the Shadow Guard.

"Most of them are Zhang Han's men." Gai Nie was the first to speak.

Wei Zhuang followed up and said, "It seems that the Shadow Guards suffered heavy casualties."

Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "This is a power struggle within the empire. The Shadow Guard and Luo Wang are killing each other."

"Ha!" Wei Zhuang smiled contemptuously, "The Shadow Guard and Luo Wang are never our own."

Xiaoyaozi declined to comment on Wei Zhuang's statement.

To him, Luo Wang and the Shadow Guard are not the same group, but to outsiders, they are both part of the empire.

This is cannibalism.

Xiaoyaozi's eyes turned to Xiaomeng, "The reason why Junior Sister Xiaomeng is here is for Zhang Han's safety, right?"

Xiao Meng walked through the many corpses and replied casually, "You meddle in too many other things."

Xiaoyaozi was already calm about this level of retaliation, and calmly followed up and continued, "Gui Gu and the two arrived in time, I think Zhang Han escaped."

Xiaomeng ignored these words.

Of course she knew clearly whether Zhang Han was safe or not, otherwise when Wei Zhuang found her, why was she heading away from Zuimeng Tower?

………………

On top of the mountains.

Facing Tian Yan's mention of the war in the North, Wang Li calmly pondered for a while and then said calmly:

"You can go, I'll just pretend that the rudeness just now didn't happen."

"Others, I have made it very clear. The three armies serve their lives and there is no reason to return empty-handed."

"There is no turning back when I shoot my bow. I am bound to win this battle!"

There are hundreds of thousands of heads in the farmer’s house, not even one can be missing!

Seeing Wang Li who had no intention of talking anymore and turned around to leave, Tian Yan once again tried to persuade him:

"There is a worse ending than leaving empty-handed."

"What did you say?" Wang Li turned his head and asked coldly.

"Loss of troops and generals, ending in a disastrous defeat." Tian Yan replied with a smile, "I think the general would also like to maintain a beautiful record of achievements."

"Hmph!" Wang Li turned around and asked with half a sneer and half a mocking look, "You mean... you want to lead those peasants with their mud-legged hands to fight against the imperial army?"

"Why not?" Tian Yan approached Wang Li holding his sword and responded with a smile, "The general can come up with a reason for the confrontation, or we can help Zhang Han make one up and let him report it to Ying Zheng."

"Bold!" When Wang Li heard Ying Zheng's name, he was immediately furious, "How dare you call the emperor by his first name!"

Tian Yanhun nonchalantly fiddled with his fingers and responded, "You should know that I dare to call him by his name...I dare to fight against anyone and kill anyone!"

"Come here, take her down!" Wang Li didn't talk nonsense to her. As soon as he waved his hand, soldiers came over and surrounded Tian Yan.

Originally, he wanted to deal with the fake Tian Yan, but he couldn't do it because he couldn't directly expose the other party's fake trap.

Now this woman was committing great disrespect by calling the emperor by his first name, which gave him a reason to take action, so naturally he couldn't let it go.

Tian Yan looked at the dozen or so soldiers surrounding him, smiled scornfully, and asked, "General, doesn't he understand what kind of person the Luowang Tianzi Killer is?"

"Your soldiers are just ants to me."

After the words fell, Tian Yan's palms turned and danced, and the engraved sword in his palm was unsheathed. The cold light flashed away, and a slender, long, and deeply touching sword mark appeared on the armor of the surrounding soldiers.

This is Tian Yan showing off his strength to intimidate Wang Li.

These ordinary soldiers under your command are no match at all!

Wang Li's brows jumped when he saw this, but he didn't give in. He sneered and asked, "Then do you want to count how many of my general's people are present?"

Gathered here are some of Wang Li's direct personal guards, about a thousand people, most of whom are the most elite crossbowmen.

This number is enough to kill almost any martial artist.

Tian Yan glanced at the large army that was ready to move, and the smile on his face did not change, and he responded, "The name of the armor-piercing soldier in hundreds of battles is like thunder, but...

...General, you only have one person, right?"

"Guess, you die first or I die first?"

With the protection of thousands of strong crossbow guards, it would be difficult to capture the thief and the king, but who made Tian Yan come so close to Wang Li?

At this distance, a top expert would definitely be sure to take Wang Li to death with him.

Wang Li's expression froze.

He was sure of escaping from Tian Yan's hands, but...he couldn't do that.

If Wang Li had just used his normal state to face Tian Yan, whose strength was suspected to be comparable to that of the Luowang Tianzi killer, he would indeed be backed up by the opponent.

But in front of so many soldiers under his command, it was impossible for Wang Li to surrender directly because he was greedy for life and fearful of death.

But if you fight the other party to the end, something could easily happen...

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Li made a decision.

If you fight, you will definitely fight. If you just bow your head and give in, he won't have to mess around anymore.

But he couldn't let his soldiers swarm him. He had to fight alone. If he lost, he would have room for explanation. In addition, Tian Yan still had the reputation of being a trap, so he could be regarded as his "colleague".

Therefore, concessions are not unacceptable.

Having made the decision, Wang Li immediately took action:

"General, I would like to see how capable you are!"

Wang Li didn't use any weapons and punched Tian Yan head on.

Tian Yan was not afraid at all when he saw him making a move. He also did not draw his sword. He stretched out a hand to face Wang Li, made an arc to avoid the opponent's fist, and pinched his elbow from the side.

A pinch and a pull removed Wang Li's strength.

At the same time, the distance between the two of them got closer. Tian Yan did not hesitate to raise his leg and hit Wang Li with a knee.

Seeing this, Wang Li hurriedly moved his other hand across his lower abdomen, using the strength of his armor to forcefully catch the knee.

Under the reaction force, the two of them each took a few steps back.
