In another part of the city, the famed general of Liang, Yan Yunqing, was being beaten up by several avatars of Lu Yuan and his men.
"You Chu thieves, I will fight you to the end!"
Before the main thoroughfare of the imperial palace, Yan Yunqing led the last hundred or so remaining soldiers, looking at the imposing advancing Chu army, with a hint of relief and desolation flashing in his eyes.
Then, with a leap, he raised his sword and charged into battle.
Inside the imperial palace.
"Father Emperor, no!"
Along with the terrified scream of a five-year-old child, Liang Mingyu stumbled in his steps, looking back at the over a dozen corpses that lay behind him, his eyes filled with despair.
The fall of Xian'an City, in order not to let his wives, children, and family suffer the humiliation of a nation's downfall.
He could only take the lead, sending his family on their way first.
