Shao Lin pretended to shake his head. “Of course. It’s a long way to Xiongnu and the terrain is harsh. Even if they’re not afraid of carrying too much weight and bringing more food, it will go bad in a few days. Xiongnu is not like Great Xia. It’s difficult to replenish rice and water. Soon, they will know the price of being impulsive.”
The Crown Prince sighed. “It’s a pity that I’m trapped here by these stubborn martial artists. Even though I understand the situation and have the heart to turn the tide, I can’t escape and can’t use it. Just thinking about it makes my heart ache and I blame myself.”
He rolled his eyes. “If not for the Third Prince’s orders, how would those martial artists dare to offend their superiors? Moreover, the Third Prince’s trip will definitely cause Great Xia to suffer heavy losses. Should we report him in?”
The Crown Prince glanced at him and said mockingly, “Will the exhausted Great Xia army still be alive when they encounter the prepared Xiongnu?”
He had already told Second Prince Xiongnu in the letter that the Great Xia army could not be killed completely, but there was no need to show mercy to Rong Yan’s life.

The arrows flew towards Rong Yan like a rain curtain. After many times, anyone would realize that something was wrong.
“Master, the other party seems to be coming for you!”
Rong Yan slashed off the arrow and looked around. He snorted. “Let’s see if they have the ability.”
He flew up from his horse. Wherever the Azure Frost Sword went, only the remains of broken arrows were left. The soldiers of Great Xia were imposing, but the Xiongnu people were furious. “What kind of monster is he! He can’t even be shot to death!”
The second prince, who was missing a right ear, looked greedily at the Azure Frost Sword. “What monster? He clearly has a divine weapon in hand. Pass down the order. Kill him and bring that treasure sword to me.”
Rong Yan looked back and gave the order to kill the enemy but not go too deep. He abandoned the guards and led the tail that was chasing after him to the archers’ ambush, revealing himself openly. This stumped the archers who had a clear target.
It was easy to accidentally injure their own people. If they didn’t shoot, they would miss a rare opportunity. Later, when those Great Xia soldiers protected Rong Yan again, they wouldn’t be able to kill the commander-in-chief of Great Xia!
Just as they were hesitating, they heard a bugle call. The archers gritted their teeth and continued to fire their arrows. The Xiongnu soldiers, who were trying to find an opportunity to slash Rong Yan, did not expect this development. They were instinctively stunned for a moment, and soon, someone fell for it. Rong Yan seized the opportunity and reaped more than 10 lives.
The sword that Xiaoxiao gave him was very sharp, saving him a lot of effort. Killing people was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables. It also made him gradually become a killing god in the eyes of the Xiongnu people.
“Damn it, he did it on purpose!” He deliberately made them use Xiongnu’s arrows to kill Xiongnu’s soldiers!
The braver he was, the more determined the second prince was to get rid of him.
Many years ago, Great Xia had a fierce general, Xiao Ran. This person, as a woman, beat up the Southern Barbarians until they didn’t dare to let out a fart. If Third Prince Rong Yan grew up, he would definitely become a huge problem for Xiongnu in the future! The Second Prince gritted his teeth. He didn’t want to follow in the footsteps of the Southern Barbarians!
He wanted to kill Rong Yan at all costs.
At the same time, he raised his hand to signal the archer to stop. He rolled up his sleeves and put a short arrow with a green gleam on its tip into the crossbow on his arm. Then, he mounted his horse and went into battle himself.
He did not plan to fight Rong Yan one-on-one. Instead, he got the archers to cover him and his personal guards to block Rong Yan’s vision. He took advantage of Rong Yan’s unpreparedness and darted to his blind spot before decisively pressing the trigger.
The sound of air being torn apart was almost inaudible on the battlefield. Not to mention Rong Yan, even the second prince, who was shooting arrows, could not hear it. He had successfully plotted against countless people with this move, and he was also full of confidence today.
When the Third Prince of Great Xia was poisoned by the arrow, he would take away the sword and use it to cut off Rong Yan’s head and send it to the border city for public display!
This sneak attack was indeed tricky and Rong Yan really did not notice it at first, but he had an advantage that others could not compare to—Xiaoxiao!
How could Xiaoxiao be at ease with him facing such a dangerous moment alone? Hence, Xiaoxiao’s spatial control was already prepared the moment the green gleam appeared.
The second prince had never doubted his accuracy. Hence, he was the most surprised when the short arrow landed on the shoulder of a Xiongnu soldier.
He could see through everything in a hundred steps. How could he drop the ball at such a time when everything was ready?
As soon as the Xiongnu soldier bled, he foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, twitching. This way, it was difficult for Rong Yan not to notice it. He swept his gaze around and found the second prince of Xiongnu, who had raised his arm again.
There was still a distance between the two of them, so it was impossible for them to talk directly. Hence, Rong Yan gave him two heads and a disdainful gaze that could be seen from dozens of meters away.
The second prince gritted his teeth when he saw that he could clearly kill more, but each strike only killed two people.
“Could it be that he deliberately killed the two people to show off because our prince’s ranking is second?”
The second prince’s chest tightened. “You’re so smart.” Do you want me to thank you for explaining to me?
What was even more infuriating happened. Those Xiongnu arrows suddenly seemed to have made a mistake and flew towards the second prince. Although he had ordered the archers to kill Rong Yan at all costs, he did not expect them to disregard his life.
Could it be that his Eldest Brother and Third Brother’s men wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him?
At this thought, he could no longer stay here in peace. “Retreat!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the second prince turned around and was shocked to discover that Rong Yan had already crossed half the distance. He seemed to have seen through his thoughts. “How can you come and go as you please where the soldiers of Great Xia are?”
At this moment, he was covered in blood and his face was covered in red. With the momentum of a killing god, anyone who blocked him would be killed by his sword.
Even though the second prince was still greedy for this sword, he was terrified at this moment. “Quick, stop him!”
Dozens of Xiongnu guards suddenly appeared in front of Rong Yan. They were all fully armed, and their weapons and armor were different from ordinary soldiers. It was obvious that they were the Second Prince’s personal guards. These people were especially fierce. Their scimitars were broken, and they simply snatched the weapons of others before continuing to fight.
Even though Rong Yan had grown up under Xiao Ran’s training since he was young and had never slacked off. At this moment, with the Azure Frost Sword that Xiaoxiao had given him, he could not help but show signs of fatigue under the continuous concentrated attacks. Seeing this, the second prince, who was staring at him, casually pulled a Xiongnu soldier over as a shield and rushed over.
The Xiongnu soldier did not want to die and instinctively struggled. Unexpectedly, the second prince took advantage of the fact that no one saw him and stabbed the Xiongnu soldier in the back, cutting off his thoughts of resisting.
The second prince was born with great strength, so it was not difficult for him to lift a dead body with one hand. It was also very easy for him to block the arrows. On the other hand, Rong Yan was gradually losing his strength..
