"Using Prince Yu to scare me?"

With a cold sneer, Su Yuwei mocked with disdain, "If I kill you, what do you think Prince Yu will do to me? Break off the engagement, or kill me?"

"..."

These words immediately left Yuan Shouyi dumbfounded.

Indeed, what could Prince Yu actually do to Su Yuwei?

It's important to know that Su Yuwei is the Quasi-Princess Consort Yu; moreover, she has King of Changlin behind her. Even if Prince Yu lost his mind, he wouldn't turn against Su Yuwei because of someone insignificant like him!

Previously, he only hoped that Prince Yu would stop Su Yuwei from taking revenge, but once Su Yuwei truly mobilized the Changling Army northwards, nothing could deter her resolve to kill him.

In the Northern Domain, he is the City Lord of Jubei City, a governor commanding a hundred thousand cavalry, but in the eyes of figures like King of Changlin and Prince Yu, he is still just a minor character.

"Su Yuwei, Wang Junze isn't dead at all, why are you acting crazy?"

Yuan Shouyi, forced into a corner, had to grit his teeth and curse again.

In fact, there was no need for Yuan Shouyi's reminder; in the next moment, Wang Junze was already flying towards Su Yuwei's location.

In an instant, that figure in blue flew out, landing under the moonlight, and locked gazes with Su Yuwei from a distance, as if time had stopped!

Whether it was Su Yuwei or Wang Junze, at this moment, both felt a sense of trance.

Strictly speaking, they had only been apart for just over a year, but reuniting now still felt like a lifetime had passed.

At this moment, Su Yuwei even forgot to give the order for the Changling Army to continue attacking Yuan Shouyi; her body trembled slightly, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

Some words don't need explanation. When Su Yuwei appeared here with the Changling Army, Wang Junze naturally understood what kind of conversation she once had with Yuan Shouyi and what feelings and intentions were contained within.

This was more moving than any romantic vow.

"There's time for reminiscing later, first kill Yuan Shouyi to prevent future trouble!"

Compared to Wang Junze and Su Yuwei, Luo Qingxuan was much calmer at this moment.

Although when Su Yuwei appeared, she couldn't help feeling a bit heart-stricken and painful, in this situation, she understood more clearly what was most important.

The conflict between both parties had reached a point where there was no room for reconciliation.

If they didn't kill Yuan Shouyi today, they would certainly face his full retaliation later, for the Changling Army couldn't stay in the Northern Domain indefinitely.

"Kill!"

Sure enough, this single word quickly brought Su Yuwei back to her senses, and she turned her gaze towards the Changling Iron Cavalry beside her, giving a firm order.

In a flash, the Changling Army behind her acted immediately, fiercely attacking Yuan Shouyi's personal troops.

Run!

For Yuan Shouyi, this was the only thought in his mind now.

No matter how much strength he had hidden, it was meaningless in front of the Changling Army.

Escape, and not towards Jubei City, but... to flee to the Extreme North Wilderness!

Yes!

For Yuan Shouyi, the only path to survival was to seek refuge with the Deserters.

Facing the Changling Army, only the Deserters would dare to take him in and protect him.

Even though this meant he would inevitably carry the stigma of betraying the Human Race, and have to hide in the Extreme North Wilderness for the rest of his life, living... is still better than dying!

In fact, when Yuan Shouyi chose to lead his thousands of personal soldiers to flee in the opposite direction of Jubei City, Wang Junze already guessed his intention.

"Pursue him, by no means let him surrender to the Deserters!"

At the same time, elsewhere, the Deserters were also in great danger under the pursuit of the Changling Army. Fortunately, Jing Yuan responded quickly, immediately ordering the Deserters to retreat and decisively arranged for ten thousand Great Snow Wolf Riders to cover the rear, avoiding the Deserters' complete defeat.

Even so, it was already a rout.

All the advantages he had painstakingly built up before had completely vanished with the intervention of the Changling Army!

The only good news was that the resources previously plundered from the Northern Domain had been sent back to the Extreme North Wilderness early on, achieving the basic strategic goal of this incursion south.

As long as they successfully retreat back to the Extreme North Wilderness, they'll be safe.

After all, even the Changling Army couldn't possibly march all the way to the Divine Court to annihilate the Deserters.

If they dared to venture deep into the Wilderness, they would only find themselves besieged by both the Deserters and the Demon Race, perhaps even left behind in the Extreme North Wilderness altogether.

If a hundred thousand Changling Army could easily annihilate the Deserters, the Deserters wouldn't have survived until now.

Of course, compared to the clear objectives of the Deserters, the ten thousand cavalrymen under Yuan Shouyi now seemed somewhat at a loss.

Previously, whether it was resisting the invasion of the Deserters or counter-attacking them, everything was normal. But now... the intrusion of the Changling Army left them unsure of what to do, as their original commander, Yuan Shouyi, wasn't at the battlefield's center anymore.

The orders they received were only to restrain the Deserters.

A military unit, losing its command, naturally couldn't display any combat effectiveness.

What's more, they weren't the Changling Army, truly following them deep into the Wilderness, they didn't really dare to.

Most crucially... who knew whether these Changling Soldiers were friend or foe!

In fact, it wasn't just these cavalrymen who were confused. Even the experts sent by Prince Yu were equally bewildered at this moment.

In such circumstances, should they really still fight against the Profound Moon Sword Sect people?

Soon, Yuan Shouyi, under the protection of those thousands of personal soldiers, fled to the front lines and went on to escape into the Wilderness.

Yuan Shouyi's reaction was similarly swift.

In this situation, he naturally couldn't order these cavalrymen to continue pursuing the Deserters, but he also didn't dare to suggest they all follow him to join the Deserters.

After all, he didn't have that kind of absolute control over these cavalrymen.

Truly asking these cavalrymen to defect with him to the Deserters would incite a mutiny.

So, Yuan Shouyi's orders were very direct.

Simply, to stall the Changling Army!

However, even such an order left these cavalrymen in an uproar. Aside from a handful of officers who chose to follow orders, most were too afraid to comply.

For one, they couldn't understand why they should fight the Changling Army.

On the other hand, they couldn't beat the Changling Army!

Yet Yuan Shouyi didn't care about any of this anymore. Even if only a tenth, or even fewer, of the cavalrymen could follow his orders, stalling the Changling Army's pursuit even slightly would suffice.

Only those thousands of personal soldiers he had personally trained would carry out his commands without hesitation, protecting him as he fled into the Extreme North Wilderness.
