"This insignia cannot be fake!" Fei Mo said urgently. Was it too late to surrender now?
"Who said it cannot be fake?" Wei Wuji sneered. "The commander of the Crimson Feather Cavalry has betrayed us. Yun Qi is hunting for him everywhere, but his whereabouts have been unknown. I didn't expect him to be hiding in Wuyue Kingdom."
"The commander of the Crimson Feather Cavalry?" Fei Mo thought carefully. "Zhan Tianque?"
"Yes."
Fei Mo frowned. If possible, he didn't want to deal with the Crimson Feather Cavalry, because the Crimson Feather Cavalry was extremely ruthless to their enemies. Being an enemy of the Crimson Feather Cavalry was truly unfortunate!
"How can we confirm if it's the Crimson Feather Cavalry?" Fei Mo was afraid of the Crimson Feather Cavalry, but he also didn't want to suffer in silence.
"It's very simple," Murong Sheng Rui said leisurely. "Let's fight a battle and find out."
"Fight a battle!" Fei Mo's eyes widened. Was he joking? If it really was the Crimson Feather Cavalry, and he went to fight, wouldn't it be a one-way trip?
"It's just a probe. General, you can send someone to investigate Moxi City. If it is indeed the Crimson Feather Cavalry, we will return Wulanna. If it is not, then we will lead our army to attack Moxi City, recapture Moxi City in one fell swoop, and teach Wuyue Kingdom a lesson. It's a win-win situation, isn't it?"
Fei Mo thought carefully. It seemed feasible. He would lead his troops there. If they found it was the Crimson Feather Cavalry, they would retreat. If it wasn't, they would fight a battle, letting the people of Wuyue Kingdom know that Beirong was not to be bullied. Moreover, they had massacred the people of Moxi City, and this humiliation could never be tolerated!
"Guards, immediately go to Moxi City to investigate and see what the situation is like there."
The spies in Mokecheng hid in the distance, looking at the city tower of Moxi City. Several Beirong generals were hanging on the city tower. Under the scorching sun, they were motionless, and it was impossible to tell if they were dead or alive!
"This is too much!" The Beirong spies were furious. A scholar could be killed but not humiliated. How could they let the people of Wuyue Kingdom insult their warriors like this!
"The General ordered us to come and investigate the situation," another person analyzed calmly. "The flags on the city tower are Wuyue Kingdom's flags, and the guards are also wearing Wuyue Kingdom's attire. It's not the Crimson Feather Cavalry."
"How could such a powerful army as the Crimson Feather Cavalry defect to Wuyue Kingdom?" another person spat out the sand in his mouth. "Moreover, the Crimson Feather Cavalry was only a small vanguard of two thousand men back then, and they almost destroyed Wuyue Kingdom. It must be their disguise."
Several people nodded in agreement. If the other party was not the Crimson Feather Cavalry, they would definitely make them pay! The group immediately returned to report.
Pei Jun was carving wood while looking out. "As the art of war says, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles. Beirong is so scared of us that they don't even dare to attack directly!"
Zhan Tianque immediately knocked him on the head. "This is called substituting the beam with a rotten timber!"
Pei Jun tucked the wood carving into his embrace. "General Zhan, will Princess Wulanna be alright if we do this?"
Zhan Tianque looked in the direction of Mokecheng. "I don't know why, but I always feel a faint sense of unease. Wulanna's patrol route is highly confidential and subject to constant changes. How did they capture Wulanna?" Su Dan Novel Network
"Speaking of this matter, your subordinate has indeed heard some news," Pei Jun hesitated. "Wulanna was not captured by Beirong, but by people from the Central Plains."
"People from the Central Plains?" Zhan Tianque was a little surprised. Yun Qi, Yusheng, and Lanyue were all within the passes. They were called people from the Central Plains by Xiyu and Beirong. If the person who captured Wulanna was from the Central Plains, which country would it be? Was it Yusheng, or Yun Qi, or perhaps Lanyue people?
"Did they say what the person who captured Wulanna looked like?"
"A very young man, wearing a Rakshasa mask on his face... just like the mask the Master used to wear."
Zhan Tianque frowned. No wonder Yunzhong City had no reaction. So they were waiting here!
"I'm going to see the Master. Keep a close eye on the movements of Mokecheng. Do not be careless!" Zhan Tianque's expression was solemn. "If my guess is correct, the one who captured Wulanna is likely Murong Sheng Rui!"
In Mokecheng, in Murong Sheng Rui's courtyard.
Wulanna's internal energy was sealed, so she could walk freely in the courtyard, but she could not step outside the courtyard, otherwise the guards outside the courtyard would not hesitate to injure her.
Wulanna rubbed her sore backside and limped to sit at a stone table in the courtyard. Her eyes glared fiercely at the entrance, waiting. When her Master arrived, she would chop all of them up and feed them to the dogs!
Just then, Murong Sheng Rui walked in from outside, his steps light and his mood seemingly good.
Wulanna instinctively flinched. She always felt that this man was very dangerous, a threat emanating from his very bones, reminding her that this seemingly approachable man was not easy to get along with.
"Wulanna, she has arrived," Murong Sheng Rui sat down opposite Wulanna. "She came faster than I expected."
Wulanna stared at Murong Sheng Rui defensively. "She has arrived, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid?" Murong Sheng Rui smiled. "I'm only afraid she wouldn't come."
Pervert! Wulanna cursed in her heart!
Murong Sheng Rui leaned closer to Wulanna. "I was thinking, if she didn't come any sooner, I would chop you into pieces and send them to Yunzhong City. Then she would definitely come. I didn't expect her to come so quickly."
Wulanna felt a shiver down her spine and instinctively moved away from Murong Sheng Rui. "You... do you have a grudge with her?"
"No, no, no, I don't have a grudge with her," Murong Sheng Rui said with a smile. "But she has a grudge with me, after all, I killed her entire family."
Wulanna was very confused. Xiao Man was a noble lady from Yusheng. Although her mother was gone, her father was a famous great general of Yusheng. This man said he killed her entire family. He was lying!
Murong Sheng Rui clearly saw the disbelief flash in Wulanna's eyes, his smile grew more intense, and his voice became low and seductive. "You know her identity."
"What?" Wulanna looked at Murong Sheng Rui in surprise. The leap in this question seemed too big!
Murong Sheng Rui grabbed Wulanna's hand and looked at her fair and beautiful fingers, praising, "Your hands are so beautiful."
Saying that, he suddenly exerted force and directly broke one of Wulanna's fingers. Wulanna screamed in pain but could not break free from Murong Sheng Rui's grip.
"What are you doing?"
Murong Sheng Rui's smile was exceptionally bright. "You know her identity, right?"
Large drops of sweat beaded on Wulanna's forehead. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she shook her head frantically. "I don't know, I really don't know... Ah!"
Another finger was brutally broken. Wulanna wished she could faint, but she couldn't. Moreover, even if she fainted, this demon in front of her would never let her go!
