"Immortal! It is Liang Jinian who is incompetent. I have lost this battle and failed the treasure bestowed by the Immortal!"

"I beg of you, Immortal, to lend your aid once again, grant another chance, an opportunity to make a coback! I cannot accept this, I cannot accept this! Why should these dog officials strut around while we live so ekly? Why should they look down on ? I want revenge, I want to kill all the scholars, Immortal, help !"

"Immortal——"

However.

No matter how much he shouted, he received no response.

Liang Jinian forced a bitter smile and gave a resounding kowtow: "It seems that the Immortal has lost faith in . I take my leave!"

Back at the residence.

The belongings were all packed.

In total, there were seven or eight mbers of the Red Eyebrow Army, plus a woman and an old man in his seventies.

However, as the Red Eyebrows gazed upon the gold, silver, and the beautiful lady, their eyes began to shift restlessly.

"What are you standing there for?"

Liang Jinian ordered: "Hurry up and leave, there might still be a sliver of hope!"

"Commander, it’s over!"

One of the Red Eyebrows with a beard said: "Even if we don’t understand military tactics, we know that what cos next is almost certainly death, unless we abandon the burdens..."

"Yes, Commander!"

Another chid in: "Or perhaps, Commander could use a more powerful Immortal Law!"

"Exactly, exactly."

The others agreed: "Otherwise, they’re coming for you, and no matter where you go, you can’t escape."

"You..."

Liang Jinian clenched his fist beneath his wide sleeves, but eventually suppressed the surge of anger and adopted a calm deanor, speaking lightly: "No need for Immortal Law! I have just consulted the Heavenly Book and once again received guidance from the Immortal. The Immortal told to exit through the South City Gate and head towards i Mountain. There, an Immortal will surely protect us!"

"Really?"

The Red Eyebrows looked at each other, half believing, half doubting: "Can the Commander still et with the Immortal?"

"You impudent fools! How dare you!"

Liang Jinian narrowed his eyes: "You dare to doubt ? Cut him down!"

"This..."

The Red Eyebrows hesitated, but seeing the scholar’s confidence, they dared not defy him. In the end, quite suddenly, one of them stabbed the man who had expressed doubt to death.

"Commander!"

They knelt down again: "Just give the order, we will escort you and the lady out of the city!"

Liang Jinian commanded: "You go ahead and bring the horses, only the black ones. Today, only by riding black horses can we et the Immortal, hurry!"

"Yes!"

The Red Eyebrows scattered.

Inside the hall, only the woman, the old man, and he remained.

"Uncle Wu!"

Liang Jinian stuffed all the gold and silver into their hands: "You’re the only one I can trust. You must take Pei Wen to West Qi. Pri Minister Zhang there will see to your well-being!"

"Liang, this, this is after a defeat, no matter, don’t be sad."

Housekeeper Wu asked, sowhat confused: "What’s going on? Can’t we leave together?"

"Indeed, husband."

Gao Peiwen gently took the scholar’s hand: "Aren’t you going with ?"

"No!"

Liang Jinian struggled to speak: "The Dasheng soldiers are after , the Commander of the Red Eyebrows. As long as I am present, you will never escape! Only by separating from do you stand a chance to live."

"Nian Lang!"

Gao Peiwen cried like a pear blossom battered by the rain, throwing herself into the scholar’s arms.

"Uncle Wu, I entrust you with this task!"

Liang Jinian, having reassured her, forcibly pushed her away, "If it hadn’t been for you, sir, sneaking food and books to from your residence back then, I probably wouldn’t recognize a single character. I shall repay your kindness in my next life!"

As he spoke, he gave a deep bow and then resolutely turned and left.

"Liang, don’t worry, even if it costs this old life, I will ensure your wife is safely escorted to West Qi!"

"Husband!"

"Bang!"

Housekeeper Wu knocked him out from behind with a stick, then called over two maids to join him as they left in a horse-drawn carriage through the back door.

"Quickly, go!"

Liang Jinian arrived at the front gate where several Red Eyebrow Army soldiers indeed had gathered seven black horses. They all mounted and headed straight for the East City Gate, but after escaping for twenty li, a white horse leading over a thousand n surrounded them, sealing off every direction completely.

"Commander, you..."

"Liang, you deceived us!"

At that mont, several Red Eyebrow Army soldiers realized the truth.

Liang Jinian wasn’t leading them to escape or to et any Immortal; he was purely leading them to their deaths, all to buy his family back ho ti to escape!

"Hahahaha!"

Liang Jinian laughed maniacally, "That’s right, you bandits, what is your death to !"

"Fuck your mother!"

"I’ll kill you!"

"Don’t kill him, trade his life for ours!"

"Bang!"

A Red Eyebrow Army soldier with a whiskered beard kicked out.

Liang Jinian was sent flying, tumbling over a dozen tis before coming to a stop, coughing up blood continuously.

"Damn it!"

The Red Eyebrow Army hastily mounted their horses, pressed down on him fiercely, and then knelt on the ground before the Dasheng soldiers.

"rcy, my lord!"

"We’re all common folk, forced into joining the Red Eyebrow Army!"

"Right, right, we had no intention of rebelling."

"We are willing to offset our cris with our rits!"

"This man is Liang Jinian from i Mountain, the Commander of the Red Eyebrow Army. We present him to you, my lord!"

"..."

"Where’s the Heavenly Book?!"

"Strip search him!"

The Red Eyebrow Army roughly searched him and finally found several golden-yellow booklets, looking as though they were made from gold, hamred and forged into thin sheets of paper.

"This is the Heavenly Book!"

"We offer it to Dasheng as well!"

"We beg only for our lives to be spared!"

"..."

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"

The words had barely ended.
