“Ji Fengyan, have you gone insane!!” Situ Ba could no longer control the fear rising in his heart. He couldn’t believe that even after knowing the truth behind everything, Ji Fengyan still had the intention to kill him!

Ji Fengyan completely ignored Situ Ba. She continued looking at the silent Linghe.

In his panic, Situ Ba turned towards his Green Nightmare Army and shouted.

“What are you all still standing there for? Come and save me!”

However…

None of the Green Nightmare Army soldiers moved.

Situ Ba gaped at the stock-still Green Nightmare Army soldiers. Disbelief was written all over his face. Those Green Nightmare Army men all lowered their heads in shame, unable to meet Situ Ba’s eyes.

As the number one army in the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, only the Green Nightmare Army knew all about the cruelties within the military.

Situ Ba had always acted in his own interests. He completely disregarded the lives of his men. To him, there were always people hoping to join the Green Nightmare Army and they were all just p.a.w.ns that could advance his own position.

How could such a selfish and immoral person hope to win the loyalty of his soldiers?

The Green Nightmare Army had feared and respected Situ Ba in his prime. But now that they had subdued him, plus the fact that he had revealed the Emperor’s secrets—everyone knew that if allowed to live, Situ Ba would not hesitate to kill all of them to hush up today’s incident.

The Green Nightmare Army was well aware of just how ruthless Situ Ba could be.

If they allowed Situ Ba to survive, they… would all perish.

Situ Ba never dreamed that those soldiers who had always fought by his side would leave him in the lurch.

“Situ Ba, how does it feel to be betrayed by your own men?” Ji Fengyan was not at all surprised by this turn of events. She had known that after revealing the Emperor’s secrets to save his own life, no one would step forward to rescue him.

Situ Ba’s selfishness and viciousness had influenced the entire Green Nightmare Army. Who wouldn’t want to live?”

These people probably all desperately wished Situ Ba to die as soon as possible.

Situ Ba’s eyes widened. He had never expected things to turn out this way.

“Linghe, no need to wait any longer,” Ji Fengyan said in a bland voice.

Situ Ba felt a chilliness permeate his entire body. He stared as Linghe took a deep breath and raised that long sword. Death’s shadow shrouded Situ Ba’s heart.

“Wait a moment, I…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Linghe had poured all his latent hate and fury into that evil-vanquishing sword and viciously…

Stabbed Situ Ba straight in the heart!

Disbelief spread across Situ Ba’s face when he felt that sword penetrated his heart. He never dreamed that he, so highly regarded in the entire Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, would die in the hands of a common soldier…

Linghe held tightly onto the evil-vanquishing sword. He stared at the bloodstain spreading outwards from Situ Ba’s wound. His eyes turned red as he said in a trembling voice,

“General… I… have sought vengeance… for you… did you see?”

Ji Fengyan looked on as Linghe lowered his tear-filled eyes. She knew that the General he referred to was not her, but the late… General Ji.
