An ominous feeling swamped him suddenly. He ran to the adjoining room and asked, “Did you find anything?”
His men responded, “Commander Golden Cicada, we have killed the occupants of this room.”
“Oh, that's a relief.” Golden Cicada heaved a sigh of relief.
Right then, his subordinate shone the torchlight into the room. The sight nearly caused Golden Cicada to faint in
anger.
There was no one on the bed. His men had merely destroyed the bed by chopping into it repeatedly.
The soldier was shocked. “Eh? Where is the enemy? Did we kill them?”
“Idiots! Fools!” Golden Cicada roared.
He then scurried to the other rooms to check on them.
All rooms were empty.
He finally realized that they had fallen into a trap.
Golden Cicada hissed, “Run! Run now!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Northern Faction members got all flustered and fled the scene hastily.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Countless blades soared through the night sky, swiftly piercing the flesh of the Northern Faction members One by
one, they collapsed to the ground.
The entire Northern Faction was already overwhelmed by fear, so they became even more disoriented and
hurriedly ran into the rooms to prevent themselves from getting impaled.
The sound of footsteps echoed through the air, causing the members of the Northern Faction to look out of the
windows in alarm. Their despair grew as they realized the Southern Faction's members had surrounded them.
Furthermore, the core of the Southern Faction was comprised of archers with a plentiful supply of arrows. If any of
the opposing armies attempted to flee, the archers would fire arrows to prevent their escape.
They were completely stuck and couldn't find any way out.
The previous commander of the Southern Faction, Draco, declared icily, “Golden Cicada, don't you think it's impolite
of you to come here in the dead of night with your men all armed with weapons?”
Golden Cicada clenched his jaw. “Draco, just get straight to the point.”
Draco snickered icily. “All right, then. Let's get straight to the point. Golden Cicada, you ambushed the Southern
Faction late at night. This is a violation of our agreement. According to our agreement, you should be surrendering
to us and bow to our feet. Otherwise, the Chieftain would take action against you. I wouldn't even need to take
action!”
Golden Cicada burst out in laughter. “We violated the agreement? You were the one who violated it first! You wiped
out my Centuria, and I almost perished in the process. I had to lead my men here to get revenge for them! I had no
other choice. How else could I respond after you slaughtered my Centuria? How can I face my dead comrades if I
don't avenge them?”
Draco snapped, “Nonsense! We've never sent anyone to attack you. Do you have evidence to prove that the
Southern Faction wiped out your Centuria?”
Golden Cicada indignantly exclaimed, “What more evidence do you need? I am living proof of what you have done!
I saw you murdering my men with my own eyes. Isn't that sufficient evidence?”

the opposing armies attempted to flee, the archers would fire arrows to prevent their escape.
Draco snorted. “Okay then. I have a question for you. How capable is your Centuria?”
Golden Cicada responded proudly, “I trained them all, so they are extremely capable!”
It was undeniably the truth, and even if he were to lie, no one would believe his words.
Draco continued, “Then may I know who from Southern Faction wiped out your Centuria?”
Golden Cicada pondered over it and told him, “It was Phoenix who led her men to wipe out my Centuria.”
“From my understanding, Phoenix's Centuria is not as strong as yours,” Draco remarked, raising his eyebrows.
“Moreover, it appears that no one from Phoenix's Centuria has been killed or injured recently. It seems highly
improbable that they could have managed to wipe out your Centuria without suffering any losses. That's simply
unbelievable.”
Hearing that, everyone turned to look at Golden Cicada in amazement.
Draco's words make sense. Is there something amiss about this?
Golden Cicada quickly corrected himself. “It wasn't just Phoenix, but the entire Southern Faction that came to
destroy my Centuria. It happened so quickly that I couldn't make out the situation clearly. Amidst the chaos, I could
only see Phoenix and mistakenly believed that she was the one leading the attack against us. But now upon
reflection, it was the Southern Faction as a whole that launched the assault.”
