The Phoenix Reborn Book II

Chapter 112 Betrayal

Huang Jieli's shout made Wang Xiangqi's run slow down, then the young man turned his head in confusion. “Hah?”

Before anyone was able to move, the sound of a split wind could be heard. It was followed by the sound of groans of pain and the pounding of the knees that met the ground.

“Seventh Prince!” shouted Huang Jieli who saw a dagger stabbing into Wang Xiangqi's shoulders. “Protect Seventh Prince!” he shouted out loud. “Bring him per— Argh!"

“Vice General!” shouted a soldier when he saw the figure of the deputy general fall to the ground due to an attack he received at the waist. “Baj*ngan!” furious the soldier towards Tubo's soldiers who launched an attack.

Seeing the Tubo warriors darting towards them, the Shi Kingdom army under Huang Jieli and Wang Xiangqi immediately advanced. It was done to deter the enemy from touching their leader.

Huang Jieli who fell to the grassy ground tried to stand up. A number of the soldiers who had arrived by his side wanted to help him, but they were worried that they would instead hurt the man.

“Autract! Just unplug it!” huang Jieli growled at one of her soldiers. Then, he glanced at the others, “Make sure the Seventh Prince is fine! Get him out of here!” Suddenly, he felt a foreign object on his side being forcefully removed. “Agh!”

Quickly, the soldier by Huang Jieli's side immediately tore off his clothes. Then, he used the torn cloth to engage the wound of the deputy general.

After the wound on his body ‘treated’ sober, Huang Jieli forced herself to stand up. However, he could only kneel on the ground due to such a piercing pain.

The moment Huang Jieli raised her gaze, she could see one by one her troops being dropped. It made the deputy general shout inwardly, ‘How can it be like this!? How can it be like this!?”

“Vice General! We have to go!” shouted the soldier who helped treat Huang Jieli. He tried to carry the deputy general, then began to run while the other soldiers confronted the soldiers of Tubo.

“How ... how about the Seventh Prince!?” huang Jieli asked in the midst of her escape.

“I'm sure he has been taken to a safe place!” answer the soldier with origin.

As a soldier under Huang Jieli, the soldier realized that his job was to make sure that the leader was safe. He was certain that the same thing was also happening on Wang Xiangqi's side!

“We have to—!” Never had the soldier finish his words, an arrow pierced through his body. However, with great effort to ignore his injuries, the soldier tried to keep going and carried Huang Jieli away from the battlefield.

Huang Jieli was only fixated on the spot, feeling her breathing choked. “Stop ...,” he said with a face of difficulty, his emotions becoming uncontrollable. “You ... you've fought.”

“No,” reply the soldier. His voice began to weaken, “Not ... enough ... far ...”

Although he wanted to help Huang Jieli to go further, but his strength had been absorbed to withstand the pain he felt. The soldier fell to the ground, making Huang Jieli fall with him.

With gasps and eyes staring at the deputy general, the soldier said, “Vice ... General ... run ...” He coughed, probably choking on the blood that began to rise into the throat. “You must .. hi. .. dup.”

While staring at the life light disappearing from his soldier's black bead, Huang Jieli clenched her hands while turning her eyes away. He tried hard to stand up, then began to run, leaving his fallen soldiers behind while facing his enemy's pursuit.

Hina ... Huang Jieli really felt contemptible. Which leader ran away when the soldiers under his power sacrificed their lives for him?!

As if answering Huang Jieli's request, a dagger stuck in the deputy general's leg, making him stop running and fall hard to the ground. Huang Jieli groaned loudly due to the pain that struck.

When he heard the approaching footsteps, Huang Jieli quickly turned to look at her attacker. Those ordinary blue eyes that looked calming now felt so terrifying. With a towering tall body, Huang Jieli could see the Tubo warrior approaching her.

To be honest, Huang Jieli wasn't sure if this was Wang Junsi's or not. However, after everything that happened, there were so many possibilities plastered before him regarding the person who was able to become the mastermind. Therefore, his last sentence was aimed at provoking the truth.

At the very least, before he lost his life, Huang Jieli wanted to know who had trapped him!

Hearing this, Tubo Rang simply looked at Huang Jieli coldly. “From the beginning, I never served Shi.” Kingdom He ignored the other question his target was asking, knowing Huang Jieli's desire to lure him. Without further ado, Tubo Rang quickly aimed the dagger in his hand at Huang Jieli.

Amidst the attack of Tubo Rang, Huang Jieli threw a handful of earth and sand at the man. This made the man from the Tubo Kingdom groan due to his disturbed vision.

Although in an unfortunate position, but Tubo Rang continues to swing his dagger. He acted so in case that Huang Jieli intended to take the opportunity to attack him.

Meanwhile, Huang Jieli quickly pulled out a dagger from her leg and started running with a limp. The dagger that injured his leg was removed, but he did not remove it. That thing was now the last guard that Huang Jieli had.

When his vision returned to normal, Tubo Rang growled low, “Lowness!”

Huang Jieli could hear the insults, but she cursed inwardly, ‘If I am lowly, you yourself what?! Baj*ngan!’

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Huang Jieli was forced to turn her head. Upon realizing Tubo Rang was only a few steps away from him, the vice general immediately turned around and threw the dagger in his hand tightly.

In such a close distance, Tubo Rang certainly could not dodge. However, the man briefly shifted his body slightly to let the dagger injure the non-fatal part of his arm.

Huang Jieli cussed in a low voice, and tried to keep running. However, Tubo Rang who only received minor injuries easily reached his feet, causing Huang Jieli to drift onto the ground painfully.

Successfully dropping Huang Jieli, Tubo Rang immediately held the body of the deputy general to the ground. Then, with one hand pressing down on Huang Jieli's head, Tubo Rang raised the dagger high in his hand.

From the sidelines of Tubo Rang's fingers on his face, Huang Jieli could see the dagger pointing towards his body. The man closed his eyes, tears came down his face, ‘Meiliang .. forgive me.’
