    Everyone was taken aback by the shocking scene. They stood frozen, unsure of how to react or what to say.


    Commander Yin swallowed hard, feeling his animosity toward Song Chenshi grow stronger.<fn4893> For original chapters go to FindN()vel</fn4893><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Yet, the adversary showcased incredible power. A life was taken right before his eyes, leaving him no opportunity to respond. Had the sword advanced even slightly more, it would have struck his own head!


    In light of such circumstances, he dared not defy Song Chenshi any longer. He quickly replied, “I ept any discipline you deem necessary; please punish me!”


    Song Chenshi sneered, “There’s no need for punishment. With the traitor gone, consider this a lesson. While I’m here, I don’t want to hear any more treasonous remarks. If it happens again, Commander Yin will face the consequences!”


    Commander Yin sped his fists respectfully and replied, “Thank you, Song Chenshi, for your mercy. I assure you, this will not ur again!”


    Song Chenshi responded coolly, “Keep your promise.”


    With that, he turned and vanished from the end of the tform.


    Even after Song Chenshi departed, no one dared to move. A bodyy prostrate on the ground, and uncertainty hung in the air.


    Commander Yin nced at the lifeless form, sighed deeply, and instructed, “Two of you, please carry Xiao Tang’s body away. Find a peaceful spot with good feng shui for his final rest.”


    One individual stepped forward and inquired, “Commander, should we notify Xiao Tang’s family for onest farewell?”


    Commander Yin shook his head, “No need. His parents are elderly and would struggle with such a devastating shock. Besides, a major blood transfusion is imminent. Everyone will be separated from their families. It’s better to keep this from them for a few days. If they believe he’s still alive, they can hold onto hope.”


    The group fell silent, many with tears welling in their eyes.


    However, having witnessed Xiao Tang’s fate, no one dared to speak out of turn.


    Noticing the somber mood, Commander Yin quickly ordered, “Alright, two of you take Xiao Tang for burial, and the rest of you, hurry up and unload the supplies! We need to prepare for the blood transfusion. At least everyone and their families can continue to live. Life is short; if you can’t see him again, then so be it!”


    Though deeply saddened, everyone understood the urgency. Two volunteers carefully carried Xiao Tang’s body away, while the rest began moving the monitoring equipment from the carriage to the tform.


    Charlie Wade, observing from the carriage, was taken aback by the female monk’s ruthlessness. The cavalry guard had merely called her a bastard, and she had taken his life without hesitation. Yet, Charlie could sense that the monk’s cultivation was significantly inferior to his own. Despite her position of power, the situation was clearly within his control.


    Regarding the forting blood transfusion, Charlie had gleaned some understanding from the deceased’sints. He suspected that Po Qing intended to sever the cavalry guards’ ties with their families to eliminate any thoughts of rebellion.


    Using family as leverage was undeniably cruel. Once the blood transfusion waspleted, he realized that if he returned to this ce, he would likely be attacked by the cavalry guards.
