Chapter 2630
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 upants 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!”
The Northern Faction members got all flustered and fled the scene hastily.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Countless des soared through the night sky, swiftly piercing the flesh of the Northern Faction
members One by one, they copsed 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 rm. Their despair grew as they realized the Southern Faction''s members had
surrounded them.
Furthermore, the core of the Southern Faction wasprised 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 werepletely stuck and couldn''t find any way out.
The previousmander of the Southern Faction, Draco, dered icily, “Golden Cicada, don''t you
think it''s impolite of you toe 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 Factionte at night. This is a vition of our agreement. ording 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 inughter. “We vited the agreement? You were the one who vited 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 ughtered my Centuria?
How can I face my deadrades 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 eximed, “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?”
Furthermore, the core of the Southern Faction wasprised 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.
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 hisN?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
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 thatunched the
assault.”
