Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1573

Chapter 1573: Chapter 1568: Sound the Gong and Withdraw the Troops

"Bring them up!" Xiao Rongyan’s voice was deep.

Soon, all the family members of the King of Xiping’s residence were pulled down from horseback and forced to kneel.

"My lord... My lord, save me!" A woman shrieked at the top of her lungs.

The second son of the King of Xiping, trembling with fear, shouted for his father: "Father, save me..."

"Father-in-law, husband, save us!"

The general of the Xiping army saw the old princess, the Crown Princess Consort, the second and third sons of the King of Xiping, and even the wailing baby in the swaddling clothes, cradled by his mother. His eyes widened in shock.

"Go and call the King of Xiping to come and speak..." Xiao Rongyan did not want to delay a moment, his eyes so menacing that it sent chills down one’s spine.

"Regent Prince, now you conspire secretly with the Emperor of Zhou to hand over the Yan Kingdom..."

The general spoke without stopping, and Xiao Rongyan, impatient, turned his head to glance at Yue Shi.

Without a word, Yue Shi kicked the second son of the King of Xiping to the ground, and with a swift stroke... his head was separated from his body.

The voice of the Xiping army general was stuck in his throat, watching in panic as the family members of the King of Xiping screamed and cried in terror, huddling together as if it were their necks that had been severed.

The princess of the King of Xiping, seeing her own child’s head roll to the ground, screamed and tried to rush over, but was firmly held down by the soldiers of Zhou, desperately wailing her son’s name.

"I’ll give you ten seconds... to get the King of Xiping here! Otherwise, his third son will not survive..." Xiao Rongyan said with chilling calmness, "One..."

The Xiping army general did not expect the Regent Prince to be so ruthless, killing the second son of the King of Xiping without any prior warning—this was the bloodline of the Murong royal family! This was the Regent Prince’s own relative!

"Quick, go get the lord over here!" The princess of the King of Xiping screamed, the third son was also her flesh after all, how could a mother watch her beloved child die, she shouted hoarsely, "Go quickly! If you don’t, I’ll have the lord kill you! Exterminate your whole family! Go quickly!"

"Two..."

"The King of Xiping is already dead in battle!" That general quickly shouted, terrified that the mad Regent Prince would actually kill more people from the King of Xiping’s house. Fearing repercussions from the Xiping heir, he hurriedly said, "I’ll go get the Crown Prince!"

Xiao Rongyan rubbed the ring on his thumb, saying: "Tell the Xiping heir to withdraw his troops immediately! If within a quarter of an hour I don’t hear the Xiping army signaling retreat... for every ten seconds delayed, someone from the King of Xiping’s family will die!"

The general of the Xiping army quickly turned his horse and sped towards the direction of the Xiping heir to deliver the message.

When the Xiping heir learned that Xiao Rongyan personally led the troops of Zhou here, bringing their family members and already killed his second brother, his pupils dilated in shock.

"The Regent Prince is utterly unreasonable, I hadn’t even finished speaking before he chopped Second Young Master’s head off! He said... within a quarter of an hour, he must hear our Xiping army signaling the retreat, otherwise... every ten seconds delayed, someone from the King of Xiping’s family will be killed!" The Xiping army general’s voice trembled, "Crown Prince, your three young masters are also among them, even the Crown Princess Consort, who hasn’t been long after childbirth, has been captured!"

Hearing that his wife was dead, all the blood in the Xiping heir’s body turned cold and sluggish. Thinking of his eldest son, he dared not delay any longer, shouting loudly: "Sound the retreat!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
