Chapter 231
The music grew quieter until everything was hushed, and the outcome of the battle on stage between two parties finally became clear.
The man in the green robe was able to drive off the man in black with a very small force. The audience held their breath, having witnessed the severity of their fight, they sighed in relief for them.
The other side was not as lucky. The old general did not receive reinforcements in time and was defeated, escaping in a disarray.
Suddenly, the sound of drums filled the air, and all the voices became frantic. Compared to the fierce battle amidst the calm just now, the racket at this moment was deafening.
The scene on stage changed again.
The staunch old general was brought onto the stage to be beheaded, while a crowd spit at him.
The escaping military officer was covered in glorious decorations, his head raised high as he was greeted by the cheers of civilians.
