"I thought we were sent to only kill Bogsu, why target those other two?" Li Yehan asked wondering what was the association motive to make such move.
Even if Song Yuan was disguised as a mere General, he was still the emperor of Qi state, killing him could lead to serious damage and as for Han Jisung he too was an Emperor even if they got away with it now, in future if this was found out, the association would be in danger as many people would want to target it.
"Well if we only target the General of Chi nation, our mission would be obvious so we need to make it look like it's the Min nation that planned everything to happen." The man explained with a calm face, he had really thought every thing out.
Li Yehan could only sigh, when Big brother had made up his mind it was quite difficult to change, although she was a bit reluctant to hurt Song Yuan or do anything to harm him but the association had her father at arm's length, she could not risk his life.
"Who is going to distract them? Those three are not as simple as they look." Li Yehan hated to admit but seeing the way Bogsu finished off those men I seconds showed her prowess in martial arts, she and Song Yuan had turned around the battle situation to favour Chi nation especially with that tiger on their side it made everything faster, at this rate the battle may not even last a day.
"Who else can last long against them except from me?" The man puffed his chest out proudly then swiftly turned his spear around allowing the sharp point face downward using the bottom of the stick to hit Li Yehan in the stomach causing her to stumble.
Li Yehan fell to the ground and stood there as she understood why he did that, this was a battle either you left your opponent dead or left to die due to serious injuries.
Li Yehan figured out that older brother would not want to hurt her for real so he resulted to that.
Watching him disappear, Li Yehan finally stood up pretending to be hurt so as to make their act look real enough.
Song Yuan finally finished with the man he was battling with, he drew his sword of his stomach with blood dripping down from his sword to the ground, Babo used his tail to wrap round Song Yuan's neck as he sat on his shoulders overlooking the battle his eyes mostly following Alice moves as she bit down people continuously, he stared stared at his own hands and punched into the air trying to see if his own fists had any impact.
"You can't even move a stone with that strength." Song Yuan suddenly said making Babo jolt in shock as he turned to look at Song Yuan glaring at him with dissatisfaction.
"Look at me all the way you want, it doesn't increase your strength." Song Yuan stated with snort, Babo turned his head away from him folding his arms indicating that he did not want to talk to him again.
Bai Yushen immediately went to Song Yuan attacking with all his might as fury burned in his heart.
This man had won Li Yehan heart, why won't he be annoyed when he was always by her side, he watched her grow up and went to life and death missions with her then all of a sudden an Emperor pops out of nowhere and try to steal her heart away from him, he was going to make sure he avenged himself using this as an opportunity, he would just tell the association that it was an accident and it would be over.
Bai Yushen made sure to move discreetly as he tried to land a sneak attack on Song Yuan raising his sword up high but before he could strike, Song Yuan moved away swiftly and blocked Bai Yushen sword with his own sword looking at Bai Yushen with a cold gaze.
"Nice move." Bai Yushen commented as he was impressed with Song Yuan move, he had thought that maybe Song Yuan was just a trophy Emperor and that he had special forces that helped him go to war aand come back victorious because how can someone so young rule a country to be prosperous as the Qi nation was now.
But judging from his movements just now, Bai Yushen finally understood what Li Yehan meant by they were not simple as they looked.
As he tried to block Song Yuan's hit with his sword he sneaked a glance to check on the other Elites in which the association had prepared and saw that they too had a hard time fending off their opponents.
"You are really good." Bai Yushen commented thinking maybe at least he could try to annoy Song Yuan but he got to response and was instead pushed backwards, Song Yuan's left hand was at his back while he continually used his sword that was being held by his right hand to strike at Bai Yushen who blocked it with his sword.
The clashing metal created sparks as Bai Yushen felt he was at his wit end, the fury and dissatisfaction that was in his heart doubled seeing that he could not fend Song Yuan off.
Jumping few steps away from him, Bai Yushen panted holding his swords with his two hands as he stared at the calm looking Song Yuan who waited for him to attack as he stared at him with his cold emotionless face.
Bai Yushen stole another glance at the other Elites and saw that they were already running out of ways to attack the opponent and that rate they could get killed.
Finally putting his grudge behind his mind, Bai Yushen attacked Song Yuan again but this time around raising his sword high and lifting three fingers up.
It was the signal for the sharp shooters to shoot, it was time to act out the plan.
