Chapter 217: Chapter 215: Unrestrained Excitement_1

Bai Qingyan’s lips curled into a smile, her eyes shining with a bright and intense light, “By then, Bai Qingyan will surely lead the army straight into Xiliang’s Yunjing and reunite with Princess of Pingyang.”

“You… you’re arrogant!” Li Tianfu had never been at a disadvantage before. She was so angry that her eyes stung.

“King of Zhen has outstanding military achievements. His renowned virtue is known all over the world, and he is modest and virtuous! General Bai is a descendant of the King of Zhen. He should inherit the integrity of the King of Zhen. How can he be so belligerent?” The peace envoy from Xiliang was discontent.

“Xiliang isn’t belligerent?” Liu Rushi turned slightly, his gaze meeting that of the Xiliang peace envoy. Although he had delicate features, his eyes slanted sharply into his temples, giving him an intimidating look, “If Xiliang isn’t belligerent, then why did Xiliang ally with Nanyan to inexplicably invade our Jin Kingdom’s territory?!”

Liu Rushi laughed, “You’ve already fought your way to our Jin Kingdom’s Wengshan, and we can’t fight back?! Oh… it’s proper for your Xiliang to attack our Jin, but if our Jin retaliates, it’s belligerence? Xiliang only allows your country to set fires but forbids our country from lighting lamps. You’re unreasonable and overbearing. Do you even know how the word ‘shameless’ is written?”

Bai Qingyan looked at the tearful Princess of Pingyang, Li Tianfu, with blazing eyes, “Didn’t the Princess of Pingyang ask me if my grandfather knew that I burned and killed the surrendered captives, leading to the Bai family’s reputation becoming notorious overnight in all the kingdoms? Would he still want to rest in his coffin? Then I will tell the Princess of Pingyang…”

Bai Qingyan stood up with a smile, holding the sword at her waist. Her dark eyes stared at Li Tianfu with a murderous glare, “I killed your Xiliang surrendering captives because Xiliang first invaded our Jin Kingdom’s territory! Because Xiliang first slaughtered our Jin Kingdom’s citizens! If my grandfather, the King of Zhen, were here, he would have already led the army south to kill into Yunjing. If Xiliang kills one of our Jin Kingdom’s citizens, our Jin’s elite soldiers will kill a hundred! A thousand! Ten thousand Xiliang rats! Until we’ve exterminated all the Xiliang rats who slaughter our Jin Kingdom’s people! We’ll kill until Xiliang doesn’t dare violate our Jin border again within ten years! Kill until Xiliang trembles at the mere mention of our Jin’s name!”

Bai Qingyan’s voice rang out, rising higher and higher, shaking the ears of everyone present.

She stared at the Xiliang peace envoy, who was either indignant or dared not speak out, and spoke with a steady voice, “God of Slaughter?! Infamous! Notorious! Even if a thousand people point fingers and ten thousand spit at me, Bai Qingyan will bear it all! But you Xiliang people better remember this! Today’s allowance for peace talks is entirely because we consider the innocent Xiliang people. Thus, our Jin war generals are willing to endure humiliation and cease the war! If Xiliang dares to invade again in the future, if you dare to raise your knives against our Jin people again, don’t say we killed a hundred thousand surrendering captives; our Jin Kingdom’s elite soldiers will flatten your Xiliang Kingdom! By then, with Xiliang gone and no longer existing in the world, let’s see where you get the face and confidence to talk about shame with our Jin Kingdom!”

Bai Qingyan’s words were extremely uplifting, making both court officials like Liu Rushi and battle generals like Zhang Duanrui full of high spirits, feeling that Jin’s prestige had been greatly enhanced, stirring everyone’s hearts.

Li Tianfu’s pretty face turned red with anger and humiliation, unbearable. She shouted loudly, “Bai Qingyan, you burned and killed the surrendered captives without repentance and dared to insult our Xiliang. Your heart is venomous like a snake, no wonder the Bai family is doomed, all dying on the battlefield!”

As soon as Li Tianfu said this, Li Zhijie’s heart skipped a beat. Before he could apologize, Bai Qingyan had already kicked over the table of delicacies in front of her with a cold face.
