"Since you can take the initiative to plead guilty, I won't do anything wrong for myself. People's livelihood in each base is very difficult now, so I don't want your compensation. Of course, your casualty compensation will also be borne by you." Zhao Xuan said.
The other leaders were both happy and ashamed.
Who dares to ask Yunling City to pay casualty benefits? I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to ask for it if Yunling City gave it to them. They would be worried whether Yunling City was testing them on purpose.
"You all remember, if something like this happens a second time..." Zhao Xuan's expression suddenly turned cold.
"I don't dare, I don't dare." The leaders quickly expressed their stance.
Indeed, none of them dared to doubt Zhao Xuan's determination. Zhao Xuan could let them go temporarily this time considering that many survivors in their base needed protection, but this might not happen next time.
After all, Zhao Xuan is not the kind of good person who only knows how to show kindness.
If it were them, they might not forgive the first time.
"Okay, everyone, take the troops away." Zhao Xuan began to drive away the guests.
All the coalition leaders were ready to bid farewell to Zhao Xuan.
"Please keep He Guanghua in the War Drum Hall." Zhao Xuan suddenly added.
Many leaders were stunned.
Who is He Guanghua? Why is it worth Zhao Xuan personally asking to retain someone?
Everyone looked at Qiu Yun, the leader of the War Drum Hall.
Among all the coalition leaders, Qiu Yun can be said to be the most unlucky one. The other leaders were all in trouble, and he was the only one who was almost chopped alive by Zhao Xuan's sword.
Although Qiu Yun had no blood on his body at this time and had changed his clothes to cover the wound on his chest, the wound on his face was still clearly visible.
Seeing that Zhao Xuan was not targeting anyone else, but specifically targeting him, he was instinctively angry as a gangster and wanted to reject Zhao Xuan's request directly.
But the next moment, he saw the indifferent look Zhao Xuan looked at him. His heart immediately trembled.
Just now under the city gate, he clearly felt Zhao Xuan's murderous intention towards him, and he also knew clearly that if he and Zhao Xuan fought alone, he might not be able to survive even three moves.
If he refuses Zhao Xuan's request now, he is afraid that Zhao Xuan will rush up and kill him immediately.
By then, absolutely no one from the other leaders who had finally managed to remove himself from the attack on Yunling City would help him. He will die.
"Okay, I'll leave He Guanghua to you. Anyway, I don't like such an ungrateful white-eyed wolf. Zhuang Can, bring He Guanghua up." Qiu Yun found a step for himself with a hoarse voice.
But he did not lie. He Guanghua was indeed an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.
The others all looked at the team behind Qiu Yun to see who was He Guanghua.
He Guanghua was following Zhuang Can and watching the show with great interest, but he didn't know that the fire was burning on him all of a sudden, and he immediately panicked.
"Zhuang, Brother Zhuang, you, you have ensured my safety." He looked at Zhuang Can and said pleadingly.
"Yes, I have guaranteed your safety, but I only relied on my own strength to protect you. Now that my boss wants to hand you over, it is beyond my power. So just accept your fate." Zhuang Can said indifferently while grabbing He Guanghua's shoulders.
He Guanghua's body moved.
"I advise you not to resist, because resisting will not work, and will make you suffer more. You said that your elder brother is very good to you. If you can persuade him, maybe you still have a way to survive." Zhuang Can moved Non-stop, he said in his mouth.
He Guanghua stopped cooking immediately.
He knew that what Zhuang Can said made sense, and his life safety would only depend on whether he could persuade Guan Weijie.
And he also clearly saw Guan Weijie standing in the group of generals behind Zhao Xuan, looking at him from a distance with a complicated expression.
So He Guanghua's hands were quickly tied up with the tendons of the third-level mutated beast, and he was led forward in an orderly manner.
"May I ask Hall Master Qiu, how did this person offend City Master Zhao?" A leader asked Qiu Yundao with great interest.
Qiu Yun was speechless immediately. It was not good to answer or not to answer.
Zhuang Can had already reported in detail about He Guanghua, so he knew it very clearly. But if you say it directly, it seems that you don't have much face.
But Qiu Yun quickly decided to tell the truth. Because Zhao Xuan also heard the other leaders' questions and was looking at him intently.
"It was he who caused Zhao, the city lord of Zhao, to be injured and comatose on the Hai Clan battlefield." Qiu Yun said reluctantly.
His words were like a bomb, instantly causing a strong response among the leaders.
"What? Is he the one who caused City Lord Zhao to be injured and unconscious? This person seems to be just a second-level spiritual warrior. How can he be so virtuous and capable?" A leader questioned.
"Nah! He's not the culprit of our heavy losses this time!" Another leader said angrily.
Isn't this the reason why other leaders clicked the button? If it hadn't been for He Guanghua, Zhao Xuan wouldn't have been injured and fell into a coma, and they wouldn't have taken the opportunity to plot against Yunling City. Likewise, they wouldn't have lost their troops and lost their generals in return for the huge loss of face.
The logic here is simply not too simple.
For a moment, the other leaders looked at He Guanghua and almost burst out sparks to burn He Guanghua alive.
If this person hadn't been picked by Zhao Xuan, they would have definitely put He Guanghua in 18 different poses to vent their hatred.
"Okay, you can go." After Zhao Xuan waited for He Guanghua's true identity to be exposed, he waved to the leaders.
According to Zhao Xuan's own temperament, he would definitely let He Guanghua die. But he knew his eldest brother Guan Weijie in his previous life too well, and he knew that Guan Weijie would probably let He Guanghua go.
And he couldn't possibly go against Guan Weijie's ideas and make Guan Weijie unhappy just because He Guanghua, a small character who posed no threat to him.
Now that He Guanghua's true face has been exposed, even if Guan Weijie chooses to let He Guanghua go later because of his soft heart, He Guanghua will definitely not be able to survive in Yunhai City and will have to go far away, leaving Zhao Xuan out of sight and out of mind.
At this time, Zhao Xuan also suddenly figured out the root cause of the early death of Guan Weijie's brother and sister in his previous life. In his previous life, He Guanghua must have defected to the War Drum Hall because Guan Miaomiao fell in love with Zhao Xuan, and he used Guan Weijie, brother and sister, and their team as his pledge.
Fortunately, in this life, he forced He Guanghua to reveal his true colors as early as possible, so that he would never have the chance to harm Guan Weijie's brother and sister again.
...
It had been a while since the shocking explosion sounded, and Cheng Yugang was anxiously waiting for the spies left in the city to report back the latest news.
Not long after, he got the spy's reward.
"Reporting to the commander, the walls of Yunling City are intact, but the city gate was blown open. After the elite coalition forces rushed up, they were blocked by black clouds in the city gate hole and could not break through." The spy reported with a very complicated expression.
