"Xiao Ji?"
Chu Feipeng clenched his fists, furrowing his brow, and gazed from afar at Xuanping Hou standing tall on the chariot.
Zhan Country is merely a lesser country, unworthy of the eyes of the superior, yet Chu Feipeng had heard of this name.
A man who made it to the Six Countries Beauty List, even pushing aside their Liang Country’s princess; he, a grown man, originally did not pay attention to such matters, but his sister was a royal concubine and would talk about it every time she entered the palace.
Moreover, it is said that his reputation is not good, being arrogant, brazen, and extremely shameless; those who have fought with him find him quite troublesome.
Based on past information heard, Chu Feipeng formed an initial impression of Xuanping Hou in his mind — a fancy pillow, fond of sly tricks.
After the thought flashed by, Chu Feipeng felt little fear towards Xuanping Hou who had arrived stepping on a chariot.
It’s strange though, didn’t the Zhan Country army go to Chishui to attack Yan Country’s navy? How did Xuanping Hou end up at Yanmengguan?
Moreover, the chariot under his feet looks somewhat familiar.
Xuanping Hou: Yes, it’s stolen from the Liang Country’s camp in the Valley!
Chu Feipeng temporarily put aside his doubts and looked lightly at Xuanping Hou, saying, "It seems you know this general."
Chu Feipeng could speak the Zhan Country’s language.
Xuanping Hou curved his lips into a smile, "To wage war, one must first understand which chicken to slay, and which dog to butcher, right?"
Chu Feipeng’s face darkened, "Xuanping Hou, you’re insolent!"
Just a marquis from a lesser country dares not put a superior country’s general in his eyes!
Xuanping Hou gazed down at him, arrogantly pointed with a long blade, and said, "Who are you to control whether I, the marquis, am insolent or not?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Chu Feipeng’s superior country status was greatly challenged.
The relationship between Liang Country and Zhan Country, to be honest, hasn’t been too bad in recent years; the three superior countries all have corresponding subordinate countries to tribute, such as Zhan Country tributing to Liang Country, Zhao Country tributing to Yan Country, Chen Country tributing to Jin Country.
Just last year, their Liang Country’s Yu Prince made a visit to Zhan Country for diplomatic negotiation and seemed to have had good talks; Yu Prince spoke many good words for Zhan Country upon returning to the capital.
Thinking of this, Chu Feipeng temporarily suppressed the raging anger in his heart, "Xuanping Hou, did you make a mistake? Your target is Dayan’s Hei Fengqi, not Liang Country’s army."
Xuanping Hou curved his lips into a smile, "I haven’t made a mistake; the one I want to fight is you, you bastard!"
"You!" Chu Feipeng’s anger surged!
He is not someone who is easily angered; on the contrary, his temperament is exceptionally calm and composed, yet Xuanping Hou possesses an ability that can infuriate someone beyond measure.
