The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1990

Chapter 1990: Chapter 993: Fame Won in a Single Battle! (Jing Kong Arc)

Zhou Chongyue was stunned!

This child... turned out to be someone from the Xuanyuan Family!

No wonder he lost to him.

No, it’s still strange.

Firstly, this child is too young, looking only about twelve or thirteen years old, and secondly, there’s never been talk of such a formidable young warrior emerging from the Xuanyuan Family?

There is a reason for this.

Previously, he stayed in Zhan Country and only entered Hei Fengqi this year.

Though he is a direct descendant of the Xuanyuan Family, Xuanyuan Qi did not give him any special treatment; he started from the lowest rank of the cavalry.

He was assigned under Li Shen’s command, always following Li Shen’s orders to charge and fight. This was his first time obtaining command power and leading troops to Cang Continent for support.

So, it’s no surprise that Zhou Chongyue hadn’t heard of him before.

In fact, not only Zhou Chongyue but even Guo Mang and others were baffled too.

Xuanyuan Qi was exceedingly harsh with his own child, to the point of being appalling. To prevent anyone from secretly taking care of him, he wasn’t even allowed to use his real name, going by Jingtian in the military camp.

It was to intimidate this group of cowards that he revealed his identity today.

Sure enough, it worked well.

Zhou Chongyue was stunned, and so were the other five thousand rebels, none dared to rush forward for a moment.

Zhou Chongyue, having dared to revolt, had a tenacious character. He quickly forced himself to recover from his shock.

He gazed intently at the boy holding him captive with a Red-Tasseled Spear and gritted his teeth, saying, "You’re lying! I’ve never heard of such a figure in the Xuanyuan Family! Do you think pretending to be from the Xuanyuan Family will make me fear you?"

He said these words with firmness and vigor, not only for himself but also to reignite the morale of his side.

Sure enough, upon hearing these words, the rebels began to look at the silver-armored boy on horseback with some suspicion.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhou Chongyue sneered and said, "The Xuanyuan Family was wiped out long ago, only Grand Marshal Xuanyuan Qi and his legitimate son Xuanyuan Zheng survived! Who are you, then, a wild brat?"

He had, in fact, heard that a child from the eldest Xuanyuan line had survived, but that child rarely showed up, leading to numerous rumors. Especially when those rumors spread to Cang Continent, he became just a legend himself.

At this moment, defending oneself, whether true or false, would render one at a disadvantage.

Guo Mang looked worryingly at the silver-armored boy on horseback, concerned he might fall for Zhou Chongyue’s provocations.

Who knew the boy wasn’t led by the nose by Zhou Chongyue at all, he looked coldly at his defeated opponent, arrogantly and dominantly saying, "I’ll give you two choices: surrender or die. I’ll count to three, if you don’t answer, I’ll consider you’ve chosen the second path."

"One."

"Two."

Just as he was about to say three, Zhou Chongyue grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and hurled it fiercely at Xuanyuan Xi!

Almost simultaneously, a master hidden behind Xuanyuan Xi leaped into the air with a scimitar in both hands, launching a surprise attack on Xuanyuan Xi without a word!

"Watch out!" Guo Mang, facing Xuanyuan Xi, clearly saw the sneak attack on Xuanyuan Xi’s back, but being far away and injured, he couldn’t stop it in time.

Xuanyuan Xi’s lips curved slightly: "Heh, a paltry trick."

His spear moved like a dragon, twirling above his head, then thrust coldly backward without looking back, hitting the master’s chest spot-on!

As for the snow flung by Zhou Chongyue, it didn’t even reach halfway before the warhorse beneath the boy blew it away effortlessly!

Zhou Chongyue’s body shuddered: Damn! This horse can blow away snow!

"Three." Xuanyuan Xi finished counting, looking calmly at Zhou Chongyue, who was dumbfounded, "Looks like you chose the second path."

No... I... I... I didn’t even have time to say—

The gleaming spear fell, and the rebel leader’s head rolled beneath an archer’s feet.

That archer was terrified to the point of collapse!

Everyone shuddered!

"Avenge General Zhou—"

Someone shouted from the crowd, but the words barely fell when a horn of attack sounded not far away, with countless hooves approaching. Leading the charge was a cavalryman carrying a flying eagle banner fluttering in the wind and snow.

That was the Xuanyuan Family’s command banner!

The iron cavalry of the Xuanyuan Family had really arrived!

The boy who killed Zhou Chongyue wasn’t lying!

He truly belonged to the Xuanyuan Family!

With the leader dead and the imperial reinforcements arriving, the rebel morale dispersed, and their fighting spirit plummeted. Who fled first was unclear, but before the Xuanyuan Family’s cavalry leveled the hill, all the rebels had fled in disarray.

Guo Mang breathed a long sigh of relief.

Thank heavens the Hei Fengqi arrived just in time.

He was about to witness the grandeur of the Hei Fengqi, when to his surprise, he spotted a familiar face.

The one carrying the command banner, yes, you!

Aren’t you Erdan!
