Zhang San, please behave yourself!
Chapter 548 - 510: Those who offend the Great Sui, damn it, everyone must die!

Chapter 548: Chapter 510: Those who offend the Great Sui, damn it, everyone must die!

From a distance, Tian Juhua was stunned by the scene before him!

The entire frontier army of Longyun Path, no, even including those on Jin River Path and all the way to Longwang Road, knew that all Tujue people could be killed except for one – Maxim, the younger brother of Khan Muzhen.

Originally, one of Muzhen Khan’s own brothers had died at the hands of Khan Long Bo, leading to an irreparable rift as Muzhen Khan sought vengeance for his sibling.

It was said that he had slaughtered all ninety-nine sons of Khan Long Bo to avenge the blood feud.

Therefore, although the Great Sui side knew that Maxim was a villain of the worst kind and had numerous opportunities to kill him, they never dared to make a lethal move against him.

But at this moment, Tian Juhua could feel that Zhang San truly intended to send this Second Khan of the Tujue to meet King Yan!

Boom!

The Purple Mansion Realm powerhouse originally thought that upon hearing Maxim’s words, Zhang San would naturally retreat.

This kind of hothead had been seen before; after learning the man was Maxim, they would either be dragged away by comrades or taken away by superiors.

In any case, even senior Great Sui officers knew that they could not harm Maxim.

Because if anything happened to Maxim, bloody retribution from Khan Muzhen would inevitably follow.

But the young man they encountered this time seemed to be a senior officer himself yet still desired to slay Maxim.

Therefore, he had to take action against Zhang San.

A punch was thrown, sending Zhang San flying backward a dozen yards, and upon landing heavily on the ground, he slid another five or six yards, plowing a furrow into the earth.

Li Xuanmin immediately ran over to help Zhang San up.

Changsun Wugen also ran over, gritting his teeth, and said to Zhang San, "This man is the brother of Khan Muzhen. If something happens to him, the Tujue will surely wage war. Therefore, he must not be killed."

At this moment, spitting out a mouthful of blood, Zhang San felt that all thirty-some pieces of his Woodcraft Making armor had shattered under the force of the adversary’s punch.

Zhang San knew it wasn’t about whether he wanted to kill or not; it was that he wanted to kill the man, but the man was protected by a Purple Mansion Realm powerhouse, and he couldn’t!

Moreover, his opponent had probably underestimated him, thus holding back. Otherwise, a full-force punch from the Purple Mansion Realm could have shattered him on the spot just like the woodcraft talismans on his body.

But just then, a figure suddenly descended from the sky, aiming a strike at the Purple Mansion Realm protector of Maxim.

The massive blade stirred a whirlwind, repelling the Purple Mansion Realm with its force.

"Wind Divine Hall’s Feng Zhenghao is here! Military Chief Zhang, today you may kill whomever you wish! If you want to slay this Purple Mansion Realm, I can beat him to within an inch of his life for you!"

Zhang San knew this was Wind Divine Hall’s Hall Master Feng Zhenghao coming to repay a favor.

After all, he had previously saved the life of Jia Tulong.

"Thank you, Hall Master! Leave this Purple Mansion Realm to you! I’m after the life of this damn Second Khan!"

At that moment, Changsun Wugen, biting his teeth, stopped Zhang San.

"Brother San, I know you’re not afraid of trouble! I also wish that Maxim would die right now! But once he dies, Khan Muzhen will truly declare war!"

Zhang San also knew that if his momentary impulse led to full-scale war between the Great Sui and the Tujue, he would be the sinner.

But he was also a soldier, a soldier sworn to protect his country and people. Now you’re telling me the people suffer trampling, and the enemy is right before my eyes, but I can’t kill him?!

"Li Xuanmin, I ask you, do you think this man deserves to die or not?"

Li Xuanmin looked at Maxim, who was being propped up, his face full of arrogance, and his heart was also filled with towering rage.

"Master, killing him would indeed trigger a war between Tujue and our Great Sui! Therefore, killing him is unwise!"

Li Xuanmin himself was startled after he spoke those words.

Because if he had faced such a situation before, he would definitely have thought like Zhang San does now, only wanting to rush forward and tear Maxim to pieces.

Yet for some reason, when he stood before his master Zhang San, there was always a voice in his heart telling him to stay calm and learn to think.

"But if we let this man go, it will surely make Tujue underestimate us even more! After all, from the moment we, the Great Sui, dared not kill him or trigger a war with Tujue because of him, it meant that in the hearts of the soldiers of the Great Sui Army, we were incapable of defeating Tujue."

Upon hearing this, Changsun Wugen suddenly let go of Zhang San’s hand he was holding.

Though Changsun Wugen had grown up in the Frontier Army, dreaming every day of defeating Tujue,

he had to admit that in the hearts of many, the Frontier Army of the Great Sui was incapable of defeating the people of Tujue.

For many years, from the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi eras, the two powerful northern empires had needed to please Tujue to strike at each other, which had deeply imprinted the might of the Tujue into the hearts of every soldier.

Even though everyone dared to fight Tujue on the battlefield, deep down, many knew that the Great Sui could not defeat Tujue.

They had always been merely defenders, not an expeditionary force against Tujue.

"Master! Why don’t we take him alive? I heard that Old General Yuchi from the Jin River Region has forced Gao Junxian of the Northern Qi to flee to the grasslands. If we can capture Maxim and make the Khan of Muzhen agree to our terms, handing over Gao Junxian, we would also be credited with a great achievement!"

Zhang San was very pleased with Li Xuanmin’s response.

Zhang San patted Li Xuanmin on the shoulder.

"I have to admit, your thoughts just now were much more rational than your teacher’s."

Li Xuanmin, upon hearing Zhang San’s praise, couldn’t help but smile. However, he immediately realized that in his master’s eyes, the killing intent had not diminished at all.

"Remember, what your master has taught you is your master’s own, but whether you can learn it and whether it suits you after you’ve learned it, you need to judge for yourself."

Zhang San said, clenching the Mo Blade in his hand and stepping towards Maxim.

"As a soldier of the Great Sui Army, if I can’t protect our civilians from slaughter right before my eyes, what kind of soldier am I!"

As he spoke, Zhang San, dragging his Mo Blade, charged toward Maxim.

Seeing the dire situation, Maxim turned and fled.

Although he knew the soldiers of the Great Sui Army dared not kill him,

he also knew that among the Great Sui Army, there were those who wished to kill him.

But just as Maxim was trying to flee for his life, he discovered that the woman, whose child he had previously killed, had at some point crawled to his feet and was now desperately grabbing his legs, preventing him from escaping.

"Li Xuanmin, remember these words!"

"Those who offend our Great Sui, damn it, they all must die!"

Zhang San roared, the thunder gathering on his Mo Blade, Blade Intent surging, as he slashed down at Maxim.

And Tian Juhua, watching all this from a distance, was completely dumbfounded.

"Stop!"
