บท 272: Heavenly Protection

Gu Shenwei summoned several chiefs and important people within the tribes to his tent, for an important discussion. There were about thirty of them.

Fang Wenshi volunteered to persuade the swordsmen. Dragon King could push the blame to his military counselor if Fang Wenshi failed. "At the worst case scenario, they would not kill me, would they?" he asked nervously.

Gu Shenwei refused and decided that he would do the convincing himself. Fang Wenshi kept reminding him of what to take note of and what to avoid saying, but Dragon King threw all caution to the wind with his first sentence.

"Everyone, I've decided to cease battle with Golden Roc Fort and we'll make peace with them."

This statement caused a huge uproar in the tent.
