Chapter 921 She Has To Die (Part One)
It was the first time the Great Jade Kingdom suffered such a huge loss ever since Rndo arrived to
lead them against the Bright Dynasty. Rndo''s face was devoid of any expression, and Benjamin was
so stunned and afraid that he didn''t even dare take a deep breath. He remembered how the general
had told him that something had changed with their enemies, but he didn''t take it seriously. The result
of that nonpliance had led them to this position, and he was extremely regretful.
"Someone from the Bright Dynasty hase," Rndo dered tly. As for who it was, he gave it a
thought and figured out that that person could not be Matthew. If he was already here, he would
definitelye out and challenge him, one-on-one. It also could not be Felton, as he was not a person
of the imperial court. Besides, since the annihtion of the Qin n was rted to the royal families of
the four kingdoms, he would not dare help any imperial court in public. ''It''s someone from the Bright
Dynasty''s imperial capital,'' Rndo said inwardly.
"Your Majesty, I know that the people from the Bright Dynasty are vicious, but I have never seen them
like this."
"This is the battlefield. You can''t judge anyone based on their actions, as everyone is only operating
under orders, or for their survival. It''s Zack. Zack has arrived," Rndo said quietly.
"Who is Zack?" Everyone began to ask, as they had never heard of him. "How would he be able to lead
the Bright Dynasty''s army just like that?" one even asked.
"You haven''t heard of Zack before, but I''m sure you''re familiar with the Bright Dynasty''s Bu n. Zack
is the present head of that n, as well as the youngest grand secretary of his country. He is smart and
meticulous, two attributes needed for a battle, but I didn''t expect that Lucas is willing to send him to the
battlefield," Rndo said after ruling out everyone who might havee to the Dragon Pass to help
the Bright Dynasty. With the intelligence report that he had gotten, it seemed Zack came on his own, as
his men hadn''t seen any sign of an army that apanied him.
"Six men from the Bu n worked as the grand secretary of the Bright Dynasty''s imperial court." The
military counsellor remembered the rumor he heard from the Bright Dynasty. It was said that even if the
royal family was overthrown, the Bu n wouldn''t. They said it was because the Bu n had a longer
history than that royal family themselves.
Benjamin was a military official, so he didn''t know much about civil officials. Since the military officials
were destined to fight on the battlefield, they just knew the famous and most impressive military
generals. They had heard of all the well-known generals in the Bright Dynasty, but hadn''t paid much
attention to its civil officials.
"Zack cannot be underestimated. He is more cunning than a normal citizen, maybe even some of our
top officials," Rndo said. He and Zack made acquaintance in the Holy Chant Temple. They became
friends, and would often y Go, which would always end up in a draw despite both of them carefully
mapping out their tactics.
''He always cares for the people around him. How did he stomach attacking my men with wood oil?''
Rndo thought, his brows now tightly knitted. All of a sudden, his eyes lit up. Chuckling, he said, "I
almost forgot that Zack is not a saint with no desires of his own. He has his bottom line, and I may have
already stepped on it."
"Bottom line? What is it?"
"He and Harper are sworn friends. If it weren''t from Matthew''s tricks and whatnot, he might have been
the one Harper married," Rndo replied.
"Then... he must hate Prince Matthew for essentially stealing his future wife?" Benjamin asked
excitedly. ''If such a heartless and cruel person chooses to fight against Matthew, chaos would definitely
ensue on their side! If that happens, there would be no need for us to do anything—they''d take
themselves out!'' he thought.
Rndo nced at Benjamin and asked, "Have you seen Zack and Matthew fight?"
"Uh..."
"You know, Zack and Matthew are gentlemen. Zack is inferior to Matthew when ites to martial arts,
so he knows better than trying to fight him. But now, things are different. If something bad happens to
Harper because of Matthew..." Rndo said with a sneer. If something bad happened to Harper
because of Matthew, Zack would never forgive him.
Benjamin stared at Rndo. Rumor had it that Rndo wanted Princess Harper to be his empress, but
now that he mentioned her by name directly, it seemed like it wasn''t true after all. So what was the
truth?
Fernando also stared at Rndo, knowing how he truly felt about her. He mentioned Harper in such a
direct and emotionless way mainly because he knew showing his people how much he cared about her
was useless and would not do any good. All he could do at that point was let here back on her
own.
"Your Majesty, we just got news from the Mountain Pass."
"Hand me it." Rndo''s calm face contorted into something undecipherable. Fernando thought, ''I knew
it! The one His Majesty cares about the most is still the heartless Princess Harper!''
Rndo opened the paper, and read it thoroughly. His face darkened as he threw it to Bastian. "Have a
look," he ordered.
Bastian picked it up, opened it and checked it carefully. He was surprised. "Princess Harper leads the
army to attack the Mountain Pass. How is that possible?"
"Miguel will not lie." Rndo rubbed his temples as he had a headache. Sometimes he couldn''t figure
out what Harper was thinking about.
"Then we''ll stop fighting for three days. Since Zack has arrived, we will only let him vent his anger if we
keep attacking the city. We''ll just tell the soldiers to have a good rest during the next three days."
Rndo waved his hand to order his people to leave. "Bastian, stay here."
