At Yelü Shenxuan's command, several guards worked together to carry up the body of Hale's powerful warrior.

It has been five or six hours since this morning, and Harle's body has already stiffened.

Halle's body lay stiff and cold on the living room floor, drained of all blood, his face an ashen gray. Everyone stood around him with expressions of solemn stillness.

For the people of Liao, death was an ordinary thing.

No one will grieve for Halle greatly.

Even if his own illegitimate son died, Yelu Shenxuan wouldn't be as heartbroken as he was about Hale Da Li.

The only slightly embarrassing thing is that Hallelujah died in a humiliating way at the hands of the people of Qin.

Because Hale was killed by Li Chen stuffing the gun barrel directly into his mouth, his mouth was wide open at this time. Between his white teeth and pale tongue, there were also a large amount of blackened congealed bloodstains, making him look extremely hideous and terrifying.

Turning Halle Daly's body over, they found a blood hole the size of an infant's fist on the back of his head.

The wound still oozed blood plasma and some cerebrospinal fluid. Through the gaping hole, one could see most of the cranial cavity was empty. Anyone with a weak stomach would surely find this sight unbearable.

But the few people in this room, even a few Liao Dynasty officials, remained composed.

Yelü Shenxuan said coldly, “Look, everyone, this is the damage a weapon with little power can cause”

Although the Ninth Prince was frightened by the might of Qin, it has to be admitted that the firearms they have developed pose a threat to our Liao kingdom.

An official knelt down and carefully examined Halle's wound. He even reached out with his finger to touch the edge of the blood hole before rising to his feet and saying, "Your Highness, this official believes that even if the arquebus is improved, with Da Qin's current national strength, it would be absolutely impossible to equip them on a large scale."

"This item was expensive to make, and it's well-known that the Qin treasury is empty. Perhaps the Crown Prince of Qin is intentionally showing off his strength to intimidate us and prevent us from acting rashly."

Yelü Shenxuan narrowed his eyes and said, "I have the same idea."

"Li Chen..."

Muttering Li Chen's name, Yelu Shenxuan sneered and said, “Do you really think this little trick can scare me”

"Zhao Xuanji's intel is quite clear on this. While these fire guns increase range and firepower, the biggest problems are their production cost and manufacturing speed. They simply can't be mass-produced right now, and they aren't without flaws either. My Liao nation's cavalry can charge in waves, even if we lose a few along the way, it wouldn't matter. In just a short time, we could crush all our enemies underfoot!"

“The prince is wise.”

Several officials immediately began flattering him, saying, “It seems now that these fire guns, while posing some threat, are nowhere near as exaggerated as the Ninth Prince claimed. He was indeed frightened out of his wits.”

After all, they were officials. Their language regarding Yelü Guzanqi was relatively restrained. As for Yelü Shenxuan, they would have just started berating him directly.

...they were still talking when suddenly a gust of wind blew, followed by a massive explosion and debris of furniture, doors, and windows flying everywhere.

In the midst of a colossal dust storm, two figures surged forward like furious dragons.

The two worked in perfect harmony. One stood beside Yelu Shenxuan, vigilantly guarding their surroundings, while the other stood before him, facing the direction of the explosion. Their internal energy surged, dissipating all aftershocks. Chen.Just standing up, Zhao Rui was still a little scared and didn't dare to look down. But when she was pulled by Li Chen to the middle, she immediately felt a lot safer.Sitting on the eaves, Zhao R...
