After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chapter 235 I Detained This Person

However, he didn't expect that Chu Xi was much more powerful than he expected. Not only did she easily step on the sword that he swept across and flew up, but the deputy general's sword not only did not pose any threat to her, but it also helped Chu Xi.

Chu Xi flew up on the sword like a dragonfly skimming the water. In an instant, before the other party could react, he flew straight towards the deputy general.

This time he reacted quickly. With the big knife in his hand, he chopped towards Chu Xi again. He was sharpening the knife to kill pigs and sheep. This statement described the situation very vividly.

Chu Xi was not so easy to deal with. Even if the sword was repeatedly swept horizontally and chopped vertically, increasing the speed, Chu Xi had no time to react.

But in fact, Chu Xi's skills were better than he thought. Every move seemed extremely dangerous, but the young man was able to turn danger into safety and get away with it just by the edge of the knife.

Taking advantage of his lightness skill, he flew behind the opponent again.

Going around in circles, appearing and disappearing mysteriously.

From the beginning to the end, during their fight, any discerning person could see that the deputy general was the one being led by the nose. Chu Xi dealt with him quite easily and did not even take the initiative to attack.

From the beginning to the end, he had been using light skills to dodge, his clothes fluttering, and he looked extremely relaxed.

The deputy general, who was suppressed and powerless, clearly felt that the situation was hopeless.

He was destined to fail in completing the tasks assigned by General Wu.

Since that was the case, he simply gave it his all, regardless of anyone's suspicious looks, and was determined to kill Chu Xi at all costs.

The deputy general's wrist had already been stabbed by Zhou Yichen's knife, and he had no time to treat the wound carefully. Now facing Chu Xi, he repeatedly increased his strength, trying to use his arm strength advantage to suppress Chu Xi.

Instead of thinking, he forgot that he was injured, causing the wound to bleed profusely. The bright red blood soon stained the cloth he hastily tore off.

The pain distracted him for a moment, and he was already at a disadvantage. In the next second, he was ruthlessly kicked away by Chu Xi.

Chu Xi would not show mercy to such a person who could betray even his bottom line. The kick was not light and he also used his internal force.

He kicked the man and sent him flying. Not only did he knock down a group of people, but the person who was kicked in the chest also felt extremely painful, and he vomited a large mouthful of blood instantly.

The dozen people who were crushed by the flying deputy general were unable to breathe and wailed incessantly.

The deputy general covered his chest and tried to get up several times but failed. Whether in martial arts or momentum, he had already been suppressed by Chu Xi.

Chu Xi approached step by step, sword in hand.

The deputy general subconsciously moved back, and the way he looked at Chu Xi changed, with a fear that he himself did not even notice.

The blade in Chu Xi's hand pointed directly at the deputy general. As she approached, the other soldiers instinctively retreated, leaving a space...

Chu Xi's eyes were cold. "I don't like nonsense. I will never talk if I can do it. Tell me the truth. What other tasks did your general assign you?"

Now the situation is clear. Whether the two city defenders sent out are the Eighth Prince's men or not, what is the content of their cooperation with Western Chu?

However, there is one thing that is obvious. The soldiers below may not be aware of it, but the commander-in-chief is definitely aware of it.

The deputy general was seriously injured. He glanced at the people around him and found that the soldiers had already stood on Zhou Yichen's side and obviously did not intend to continue to obey his orders.

He lowered his eyes. The sword had flown away when he kicked it. Now it was quite a distance away from him. With his injuries, it was impossible for him to get the weapon back with the young man's swift skills.

In this case...

The deputy general coughed a few times in a pretentious manner, opened his mouth and was about to speak.

"Don't try to find excuses. I'm a military general, but that doesn't mean I don't have a brain." Chu Xi said what he wanted to say before the deputy general could find an excuse.

The deputy general's face changed slightly. This young man was not only skilled in martial arts, but also smart. He could not be fooled easily.

He thought for a long time before he could barely come up with an excuse.

"We also received intelligence, but were misled. Someone told us that a group of people would pass by here tonight and attack Licheng. That's why we followed the general's order to ambush here."

Chu Xi smiled faintly, lowering her eyes to look at the deputy general, with a sharp and calm look that seemed to see through everything.

"You led people to ambush here long ago. When we arrived, the first thing you did was to kill and silence us. You never thought of capturing them alive. This shows..."

"You don't want us to live. If you really suspect us of treason or being spies of the enemy country, it would be better to capture us alive, lock us up, and interrogate us carefully."

"With such a big loophole, don't you think you can't justify it?"

How dare you say something so full of loopholes?

Do you really think military generals don't have brains?

Deputy General, “…” Of course he knew.

Isn't this... since there's really no excuse left, you can only make it up?

"...You are a spy from Western Chu, why do you need to keep you?" The deputy general was still struggling.

The curve of Chu Xi's lips became colder and colder. "You are wrong. If he is really a spy, it is much more useful to torture him than to kill him right away."

The deputy general was once again speechless, "..."

If there was any hesitation among the centurions who were following the deputy general at this time, it was now completely gone.

They trusted their deputy general and General Wu immensely, but they did not expect that the other side would keep all of them in the dark with one order and try to trick them into killing each other.

Chu Xi raised his hand, and soon someone understood the meaning.

A few of Zhou Yichen's personal guards stepped forward and quickly took a bundle of ropes to tie up the injured deputy general.

Chu Xi explained to the thousands of people, "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, we have reason to suspect that this deputy general is in collusion with Western Chu, and he needs to be detained temporarily."

More than 2,000 people faced Chu Xi alone... They were suppressed in terms of momentum. Even if some of them were unwilling to do so, they were still defeated by Chu Xi's gaze in the end...

No one dared to refute his opinion.

Zhou Yichen glanced sharply at the people who dared not speak and spoke.

"I have detained this man. Whether you trust us or doubt us, we must go to Licheng. Anyone who stands in our way will be regarded as a rebel and will be executed immediately for delaying the battle."

After he said this, Chu Xi had no intention of objecting.

Everyone also understood instantly that this seemingly weak and frail pretty boy actually had more power and official position than the young boy.

Zhou Yichen very naturally and skillfully asked his personal guards to bring dozens of horses over. He picked a horse at random, pulled the reins, put one foot on the footrest, flipped sideways, and jumped onto the horse.

The movements are so clean and neat that people can't help but look at them sideways.
