I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 244

"Kill it."

Wei Yanyu made her choice.

However, none of the people around him dared to make a move, they all looked at each other hesitantly.

Although Xu Chengwen has betrayed the Xu family, he is Wei Yanyu's son and the only direct bloodline of the Xu family after all.

Obviously, no one wants to do such a thankless task.

Fortunately, the former is already on the verge of death. As long as he is left alone, he will probably die in a short time.

"Mother, mother."

Suddenly, a weak voice sounded intermittently amidst the noisy fighting.

"Baby, baby. Wrong, wrong."

"Help, save me, mother, mother, save me"

"."

Under the bloody moonlight, Wei Yanyu turned to look at Xu Chengwen who was struggling in pain.

She wanted to stretch out the hand hidden in her sleeve several times, but in the end it turned into a cold sentence.

"I gave you a chance."

"me"

Xu Chengwen wailed and crawled to Wei Yanyu's feet little by little, raising his head begging with blood and tears mixed together.

"Mother, mother, I, I don't want to die, I don't want to die."

"."

Wei Yanyu didn't speak, nor did she look away.

She just silently watched Xu Chengwen who was like a puddle of mud, the emotions in her eyes seemed extremely complicated, yet they seemed to be empty.

Babies waiting to be fed, babbling children, smug teenagers, and young men in their prime.
It's like falling into a dream when you wake up, and pictures suddenly flash in your mind, and there seem to be bursts of sound echoing in your ears.

"Wow! Wow!!"

"Mother, sir praised me for being smart today!"

"Mother! Mother! My child has all sixty-four veins! I will definitely become a peerless master in the future, and I will never let you and dad suffer any grievances!"

"Mother, I carved this jade pendant with my own hands. I also asked the Taoist priest to bless you. I will surely keep you safe!"

"My son will redouble his efforts in the future, just to share the worries of his mother as soon as possible!"

"."

Blood-stained water and cold wind are like knives. At this time, it is better to have children than to have nothing.

The begging under his feet became smaller and smaller, and Xu Chengwen's eyes changed from unwillingness to despair.

Wei Yanyu just watched helplessly as the latter's vitality faded away little by little until he was completely out of breath.

As a mother, she might be able to forgive Xu Chengwen for all his mistakes.

But as the current head of the Xu family, for the sake of the Xu family's hundreds of lives, or the tens of millions of people in Jizhou who believed in the Xu family, she had to kill Xu Chengwen.

"."

"Husband, madam, son, he has already."

Someone reminded her softly, Wei Yanyu came back to her senses, and the figure in her memory was fragmented.

Looking around, it was full of blood and loud noises.

She was silent for a long time, and when she spoke again, there was no trace of emotion in her tone.

"Take the corpses of these people and follow me to the city wall."

"Hula! Hula!"

Outside the city of Jizhou, Jiangtai.

The flag embroidered with golden dragons fluttered in the wind, as if the dragons on the flag had come to life.

Ning Yongnian stood with his hands behind his back on the temporary high platform, his brows were furrowed, he didn't care about the whole battlefield situation, only the tightly closed city gate was in his sight.

It was poured with dark iron, mixed with dark gold and obsidian.

Although it is much thinner than a city wall that is several feet thick, even if such a city gate is bombarded by second-rank masters at will, it will take at least several hours to break open such a city gate.

Therefore, a strong attack is definitely unrealistic and can only be outsmarted.

According to the previous plan, the door should have been opened a quarter of an hour ago, and then the elite of the imperial guards would rush up and catch the Jizhou army by surprise.

But why has there been no sign of the South City Gate being opened until now?
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no plan can be perfect.

But now the time difference is too long, and Ning Yongnian can't help but feel suspicious.

Is Xu Chengwen repenting?
Or was it discovered?

Judging from Xu Chengwen's previous performances, this son is not a stupid person, and there should be no mistakes in his actions.

And Xiang Shiyuan, the only one in the court who knew about this matter, had already kept his mouth shut forever.

So what is the problem?
Ning Yongnian's frown became deeper and deeper, until Li Huaizhong beside him suddenly reminded him softly:

"Your Majesty, the situation on the city wall has changed"

"Ok?"

Ning Yongnian looked intently at the words, and the next moment his face became extremely gloomy.

I saw that there were no red figures above the southern city gate where the fierce battle was going on, and there were densely packed yellow armor as far as the eye could see.

There is no doubt that the Jizhou army suddenly strengthened the defense on this side and forcibly emptied out a piece of the city wall.

But that alone is actually nothing.

What really made Ning Yongnian react so violently was the dozen or so figures hung high on the poles.

Limbs were weak and drooping, blood was all over his body, and he was obviously dead and couldn't die anymore.

And the head of the corpse in the middle was still hoisted by the rope, as if it was intentionally showing it to him.
Unexpected and expected, it was Xu Chengwen.

"Crack! Kick!"

Ning Yongnian didn't move at all, but the wooden fence around the platform was cracked inch by inch.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and looked carefully, and then found the woman standing under Xu Chengwen's corpse.

Under the woman's feet were the Imperial Guards who were still struggling to attack upwards, and flames burst from the left and right.

However, she turned a blind eye to all of this, and just calmly looked at it from afar.

"Wei Yanyu!"

Ning Yongnian roared in his heart, his eyes were cold and cold, and he shot straight at him like a sharp arrow.

The eyes of the two collided in mid-air in the flames of battle. Although neither could see each other's expressions clearly, the emotions contained in them were quite different.
But one thing can be confirmed.

That is from now on, the two of them will no longer leave any escape route for each other and themselves.

until one side dies.

"General Zhou"

After a few breaths, Ning Yongnian suddenly turned his head to look at a man wearing black armor with gold patterns beside him.

The man's name is Zhou Xiao, and his official worship is General Zhenxi, who was originally the chief general of the counter-insurgency army.

"Your Majesty! The end is here!"

"."

"The gate of the south city will not be opened, let's ring the gong and retreat."

No matter what, Ning Yongnian has always maintained the ability to think calmly.

Now that the plan has failed, it must not be a one-brained attack. We must wait for the follow-up troops to arrive before making plans.

"Yes! The last general obeys the order!"

Zhou Xiaoben felt that he couldn't fight like this, so he immediately clasped his fists in response, turned around and jumped off the commander's platform to arrange the withdrawal of troops.

At this time, with a gust of cold wind blowing, the emotions in Ning Yongnian's heart have gradually returned to stability.

The battle tonight only lasted for more than half an hour. Although there were many casualties among the soldiers of both sides, it was only a drop in the bucket in the whole battle situation.

After planning for so long, it is undoubtedly a pity that I failed to win Jizhou City in one fell swoop.

But that's just the beginning.
Taking a deep breath, he looked up at the city wall again.

But it was this glance that made Ning Yongnian stunned again.

I saw Wei Yanyu holding a tattered tooth flag at some point, although the flag was full of blood, the character "Ning" in the middle was very obvious.

A little flame lit up, and then began to spread, engulfing the tooth flags in the blink of an eye.

The fire looked small from a distance, but it seemed huge.

Wei Yanyu's unclear face was reflected in the flames, even though the flames burned her sleeves and burned the flesh and blood on her white arms, she did not let go. Until the word "Ning" on the tooth flag changed into Into pieces of flying black ash.

The fly ash was blown up by the wind, and hit Xu Chengwen's body, which was still hanging on the high pole, and his body was smashed to pieces.

At this time Ning Yongnian could no longer see Jizhou City, nor the battlefield where the fight was fought.

He just seemed to see countless new ghosts being burned into the sky by the flames, and then hovering and falling in the obscure, dark sky that never sees the sun.
