immediately abandoned that clever choice. He said, "Your Highness, will you kill him After all, he's a useless and spineless person. Since he's unwilling to serve Your Highness, there's no need to kee...Chapter 1596: Li Chen, I Will Treat You as a State Guest

Battles are erupting everywhere.

And the combat literacy of the Liao army was greatly demonstrated at this time.

They did not charge chaotically, but instead launched a coordinated attack on the North Gate and West Gate. If they could breach both gates, Yueya Pass would be ripe for the taking.

In addition, a large number of troops stormed the City Lord's Mansion because it was certain that high-ranking Qin army officials were hiding there.

As long as we can take out the high command of the Qin army and wipe out their headquarters, then this war can be directly declared a victory for the Liao army.

Besides, a large force of people were scouring the streets of Yueya Pass.

Even within the Yueya Pass, a massive army is still fighting desperately to resist.

These defenders, who fought to the death, inflicted heavy casualties on the Liao army by utilizing their knowledge of the terrain.

The most intense fighting took place at the city lord's mansion.

To make the battle realistic enough, Li Chen arranged for two thousand regular troops to guard the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, the Liao army attacked, and both sides immediately engaged in battle.

...and the sound of gunfire and the explosions of the Qin God Thunder were also emanating from here. ...

Shouts of killing reverberated, filling the sky. Li Chen stood inside the city lord's mansion; he could even clearly see the armor on the Liao army soldiers outside and the blood and limbs spraying out during the battle between the two sides.

War has reached his doorstep.

"Your Highness, it's time to leave."

Chen Tong and Xu Wei came to Li Chen's side together and whispered.

Li Chen shook his head and said, "We have to wait a little longer."

Chen Tong turned his head to glance at the battle that was almost reaching the city lord's mansion. He couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, there are too many Liao soldiers. If we wait any longer, once they complete their encirclement of the city lord's mansion, I fear we will be trapped."

"Your Highness, don't lose sight of the bigger picture because of this trifle," Xu Wei also couldn't help but speak.

Li Chen let out a light sigh and said, "This is not a case of losing the big picture because of small details, but rather a final push in the end."

"If this palace leaves now, then it should have never stayed in the first place."

"Yelü Shenxuan, this man is unparalleled in his cunning. To make him lose his composure, one must offer him sufficient temptation, and for this price, this palace will pay it personally."

As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, the streets outside the City Lord's Mansion suddenly became a cacophony of noise.

The Liao army parted a path, their expressions fervent as they watched Yelu Shenxuan walk towards them from the end of the street.

The real deal is here.

Yelü Shenxuan arrived at the front line, full of vigor and confidence.

"Li Chen, I know you're in there."

Yelü Shenxuan sneered, "You have already lost."

"Surrender with your hands raised and come out as a captive. I, the prince of Liao, swear to you that I will treat you well, with the hospitality due to a visiting head of state. You will not suffer any hardship or grievance."

Yelü Shenxuan originally thought Li Chen wouldn't respond to him, but to his surprise, the moment his words fell, the heavily sealed gate of the City Lord's Mansion swung open.

Li Chen appeared behind the door.

He wore a simple long robe, without any elaborate patterns or embroidery. The fabric was plain silk, neither spun from silkworm cocoons nor meticulously woven by skilled artisans. Yet, this attire, which clashed dramatically with Li Chen's status and even appeared somewhat shabby, somehow exuded an indescribable elegance and nobility upon him.

The recent wind, frost, travel, and worry, coupled with the harsh environment of the northwest, have prevented Li Chen from maintaining his former polished perfection in the capital. He now sports a faint bluish stubble on his face, and his demeanor has lost its superficiality and frivolity, replaced by a sense of depth and substance. expert at the Immortal Realm, the highest known level of combat power in this world. If Li Chen could get Jie Wang to work for him as a bodyguard, he'd think it was a worthwhile deal.But to his surpr...
