Peace Order-Chapter 1487 - 139: King (End of Volume)
The Wolf King’s head was not sent back in the degrading manner of a wooden box.
When Li Guanyi and Chen Wenmian arrived there, they saw the Wolf King’s head placed on a wooden body. Even on this wooden body, it wore the robe of a Regent King, with a set of battle armor beneath it, and the wooden hands crossed over the chest.
Wolf King Chen Fubi’s eyes were still wide open in anger, as if even in death, he was still fighting.
Chen Wenmian’s mental state was almost shattered in an instant. This person, already renowned across the land, a Divine General who, at the age of twenty, had charged through thousands of troops, suddenly stumbled and knelt before the coffin, pressing his hands against it, gritting his teeth.
Tears welled up in Chen Wenmian’s eyes and fell in large, silent droplets as his hands trembled. Despite such a torrent of emotions, his lips quivered and he couldn’t even let out a low cry.
Li Guanyi looked at the head of the Wolf King, holding the second gift from Chen Dingye.
It was the alliance letter that the Great Khan of the Turkic had given to the Chen Country.
Even when Chen Dingye reached his end, overbearing and reckless, having lost everything, not only did he refuse to ally with the Turkic grasslands and attack the Central Plains internally and externally, but he also gave the Turkic alliance letter to Li Guanyi and Jiang Wanxiang.
In such a crisis, it instead exhibited an indescribable audacity.
Li Guanyi looked at the words beneath the letter, written by Chen Dingye himself, shedding the genteel airs from five years ago, now possessing a chilling sharpness like a dragon baring its fangs.
"Your parents were killed by me, your future was severed by me, your Fate Grid was taken by me."
Chen Dingye’s vision could already see the fate of the Chen Country and his own end, so he acknowledged what he had done, and then he said—
"Come, let us kill each other!"
"Great head, Li Guanyi."
"I await your arrival!"
Li Guanyi lowered his eyes, a naked intent to kill towards Chen Dingye beneath them. The letter in his hand shattered, and Li Guanyi softly said: "To repay kindness with kindness, and vengeance with vengeance, is only natural."
"There is no need to rush, Chen Dingye, your head."
"I will personally take it to comfort the spirits of my parents in heaven."
Meanwhile, Ying Country also sent an envoy with a secret letter to Jiangnan. The words on the letter expressed Ying Country’s hope to ally with Li Guanyi while recuperating, to jointly destroy the Chen Country.
Originally, in the eyes of the world, Ying Country, having suffered several Great Defeats, should be wary and guarded against that young Qilin. At this point, it should ally and unite with the Chen Country to jointly resist Jiangnan.
Yet Jiang Wanxiang made a different choice, choosing to first ally with the Qilin of Jiangnan, intending to first eliminate the affluent Chen Country occupying Jiangnan.
After dividing the world in two, the dragon and the tiger would compete, and only then openly seize the world.
The aged monarch, admonished by Jiang Gao, regained his vigor and grandeur, and even in his old age, felt the youthful boldness and discontent, planning to jointly attack and destroy the Chen Country with Jiangnan’s forces—
[After first vanquishing the Chen Country, the two of us shall divide the world]!
[Then, we shall wield our weapons and compete for the world]!
"Such audacity reaches the skies..."
Even someone like Breaking Army and Wen Lingjun had to sigh softly, the world’s grand trend was surging, like rowing against the tide, the further they went, the more roaring waves and obstacles they encountered.
Now, the world faced the Turkic grassland’s predatory gaze. The Khan’s covetousness towards the Central Plains was no longer concealed at all.
Perhaps because the three forces in the Central Plains, after battling for more than two years, were now in a state of national fatigue and weariness, the aged Second Divine General, the Khan, felt that the last opportunity before his death had arrived.
The heavy cavalry, Iron Futu, honed their claws and fangs under the leadership of the Second Divine General, coldly watching the people and lives of the Central Plains against the vast background of the grasslands. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
After long battles and struggles, the Central Plains needed to recuperate and rest.
Their internal conflicts and hatred were knotted together like a thousand knots, unable to be unraveled. The body of the Wolf King was protected by special means, a Martial Arts Legend’s body that did not decay or deteriorate after death, and after Chen Dingye returned the Wolf King’s head.
Chen Wenmian rejoined the Wolf King’s body and buried it in Jiangnan.
This was the place where Chen Fubi and Li Wanli lived the happiest days of their youth. Chen Wenmian paid his respects to his father, holding the double-edged blade and vowing to personally take revenge on Jiang Su.
After Chen Wenmian departed, Li Guanyi came here alone, carrying a jug of wine, to honor the Wolf King. Even the greatest of heroes in life, after death, are buried in the earth, their life’s glory and grandeur returned to nothingness.
Li Guanyi sat cross-legged, pouring the fierce liquor of Jiangnan over the Wolf King’s grave, saying: "Uncle, we succeeded in repelling Jiang Su and gained new territory. We originally planned to recuperate, but alas, alas."
"The Great Khan of the Turkic grassland does not intend to give the Central Plains this time and opportunity. His hostility towards us is severe, he is the true enemy. The Central Plains’ three houses have chosen to temporarily put down their weapons, but the grassland does not intend to let us catch our breath."
"Jiang Wanxiang is likely planning to hand over Ying Country’s Qi Fortune to Jiang Su."
"Chen Dingye, I don’t know what he intends to do."
"This man has a vile nature, but who knows how many ruthless schemes are brewing in his mind. If one is careless and underestimates him, one might end up bitten hard by him, not dying but severely injured."
