After an unknown period of time, the clanging of swords falling to the ground resounded, and the sound of cups falling to the ground resounded as well.

Tiger Jones was absent-minded and almost fell from his seat. He murmured in disbelief, "What did you say? The enemy... the enemy broke through the city?"

"How... how is this possible?"

"Yes, our... our reinforcements are almost here. Those people, they... how dare they!"

"No, no, no, it's absolutely impossible. It's absolutely impossible. They withdrew a long time ago. How could it be..."

The group of people's faces were ashen, and their eyes were full of shock and fear.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you were going to kill us earlier?"

"That's right. You were all boasting just now, as if you were the most powerful person in the world. What's wrong? Are you all mute now?"

The spies mocked them in time.

"Didn't someone just tell us not to panic when something happens? It's funny. It's really funny."

"Haha, when it comes to others, they're clear-headed. Now it's their turn. They are as timid as a dog."

The spies vented their dissatisfaction to their heart's content. They tried their best to fight for information, but in return, they were squandered like fools and ridiculed mercilessly.

They'd fought desperately, yet the higher-ups hadn't done anything at all and were still humiliating them. So how could they not be angry? In any case, the army had already been breached, and they would die sooner or later. It was better to vent their anger now; at least it would be a swifter way to die.

In the face of the spies' abuse and sarcasm, the group of people was not as arrogant and domineering as usual. There was not even a single person in the crowd to talk back.

"Young Master, what should we do? What should we do now?"

"Yeah, now that 200,000 troops have slaughtered their way into the city, we're like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Let's...let's think of a way to escape."

"That's right, young master. If we run now, we may survive."

Tiger Jones was no longer as calm as before. He panicked and asked, "But if we leave, what about the people in the city? What about the members of the Pei family?"

"Young Master, where there is life, there is hope. Let's retreat."

"That's right, Young Master. How can those people's lives compare to yours? Retreat."

They were anxious to persuade Tiger Jones, but they completely forgot the vow they made to the people in the city during the day.

In their eyes, human lives were just weeds. Human lives could be used when needed, or thrown away when not needed.

"Alright, run, run!"

Tiger Jones came to his senses and replied.

Then, the group of people fled out of the attic in a panic.

The spies didn't take a step away. They just looked at each other.

"This is our new patriarch, haha!"

"Incredible. It turns out that he's just a good-for-nothing."

"Look at them running away. Don't they look like dogs?"

The spies sneered, while the senior officials fled desperately. The scene was full

of sarcasm.

"The Pei family wants to escape. Seal off all exits!"

When the group of people had just come out of the attic, the army of Ming Yu had already slaughtered its way to the north of the city. As they looked at the Pei Clan members that fled in panic, the leading general shouted fiercely.

In an instant, the army behind him quickly guarded the north gate in an orderly

manner.

Tiger Jones had just escaped

halfway, but at this time, he had

stop quickly, causing the people

behind him to rear-end repeatedly.

They were in a terrible state.

However, Tiger Jones couldn't care less. He instinctively returned to the city, unwilling to be caught.

As for the leading general, he waved

his hand and the soldiers

surrounding the northern part of the city immediately shrank the encirclement. The opening in the city wall was so tight that not a single drop of water could leak out. There was no way out.

Later, the crowd dispersed, and several people slowly came out from behind...
