Wei Yiwen pressed his palm on Yuwen Lie's long spear, lowered his voice, and said: "The Grandmaster is still campaigning outside. If the Grandmaster returns, and Emperor Qin Li Guanyi advances swiftly, what then?"
"Have you forgotten the late Emperor's kindness in recognizing you?"
Yuwen Lie's heavy spear slowly dropped.
He realized that the opponent he faced was one that courage alone could not defeat. The serene Divine General glanced at the worried Wei Yiwen and the seasoned He Ruoqinhu, and coldly said: "You gentlemen certainly came quickly."
