Other kings might not have fled, but would have died defending their capitals.
Even in defeat, they would have accepted their fate.
But King Xi of Yan was extremely fond of life and greatly indulged in pleasures.
Therefore, he was unwilling to die here, unwilling for his reign to end just like this.
Everything was prepared for his escape.
Then, he and a group of people left the Yan royal palace.
However, the moment they emerged, their expressions were priceless.
Because someone was already waiting in front of their palace.
The leader was, of course, Lin Tian.
When the Yan generals saw Lin Tian, they were filled with disbelief.
Moments before, they had seen Lin Tian charging on the battlefield, so how had he appeared before them now?
"What is going on? Why is Lin Tian of Qin here so quickly?"
"Were the guards defending the city made of paper? How could they not delay us even for such a short time!!"
"It's over, it's over, we're finished this time. Lin Tian of Qin has broken through, we can't escape!!"
Seeing Lin Tian, many Yan generals despaired immediately.
They had already witnessed Lin Tian's prowess on the battlefield.
They knew that with Lin Tian leading the army to block their path, they couldn't break through even with tens of thousands of troops.
Lin Tian alone could hold off tens of thousands of soldiers.
This was undoubtedly terrible news and a situation that filled countless Yan generals with despair.
Many of them already had the thought of laying down their weapons and surrendering.
However, King Xi of Yan had never witnessed Lin Tian's might.
Seeing that Lin Tian had soldiers behind him, but not in large numbers, he felt he still had a chance to break through.
So, he sternly commanded:
"Kill them! Break through their formation and charge out!!"
"Those who escort the lonely one out will be ministers who followed the dragon, and I will surely entrust them with important positions in the future!!"
King Xi of Yan wanted to motivate the Yan soldiers in this way, to carry him out.
However, his order was only effective for some.
Those who had witnessed Lin Tian's power hesitated at this moment.
Therefore, King Xi of Yan only saw some soldiers charging forward, while the majority of the soldiers hesitated behind, unwilling to advance.
This greatly displeased King Xi of Yan, and his angry roar echoed in everyone's ears!
"Why are you not acting yet? Do you want to wait here to die??"
His words jolted them from their daze.
Those Yan soldiers then realized that even if they didn't resist, Lin Tian would not let them go.
Since that was the case, they might as well fight with all their might.
The next moment, they charged forward as the vanguard, shouting:
"Kill with me! Pierce through them!!"
"Charge! Staying here is a dead end, it's better to fight for a way out!!"
These words inspired many.
Those soldiers who had been hesitating now gripped their weapons and charged out with the others.
The momentum of this desperate struggle was also very powerful.
However, Lin Tian was completely unmoved by their charge.
Only his gaze was exceptionally cold.
He knew that the people before him would not surrender, and Lin Tian was unwilling to accept their surrender.
So the only thing he had to do now was to kill.
The next moment, he took the lead and charged to the very front.
"Kill!! Annihilate them, destroy Yan!!"
"Charge!!"
Behind Lin Tian followed Wang Wu and others.
After Lin Tian gave the order, they fought fiercely.
A large number of Yan soldiers died under their swords.
Within a few breaths, a large area of corpses lay beneath their feet.
Yet, even so, they could not keep up with Lin Tian's killing pace.
Having pinpointed King Xi of Yan's location, Lin Tian did not hesitate and charged directly towards him.
Wherever he passed, Yan soldiers tried to block him, but as soon as they approached Lin Tian, they fell to his sword.
The sword in his hand never stopped.
And none of his enemies could survive his blade.
In less than ten breaths, Lin Tian had already approached King Xi of Yan.
This sent a cold sweat down King Xi of Yan's spine.
He never imagined that Lin Tian would be so ferocious.
He charged into the army as if entering an unmanned territory, with no one able to stop his advance.
More importantly, Lin Tian's eyes were extremely cold, so cold that King Xi of Yan shivered uncontrollably.
"Quick! Save the King! Save me, quick, save the lonely one!!"
"Guards, stop him, quick, stop him!!"
King Xi of Yan was extremely anxious at this moment. The killing intent in Lin Tian's eyes made him feel as if his life was already counting down.
Therefore, he desperately hoped that someone could stop Lin Tian.
If Lin Tian was stopped, his life would be saved.
However, for ordinary soldiers, such a desperate plea was too difficult.
Although many soldiers stepped forward to block Lin Tian, their combat effectiveness was simply no match for Lin Tian.
Instead, Lin Tian's momentum grew stronger with each kill, instilling greater fear.
As the killing continued, King Xi of Yan retreated repeatedly, shouting:
"Don't kill me, don't kill me! Please, don't kill me!!"
"I am the King of Yan, I have a lot of gold and silver, I can give you a lot of gold and silver!!"
These words were undoubtedly harsh to the ears of the Yan soldiers.
After all, many Yan soldiers had surrendered, but not a single one had begged for mercy.
Such a spineless King of Yan made them feel utterly disgraced.
However, King Xi of Yan paid no heed to them. His eyes were only on Lin Tian.
He did not want to die at Lin Tian's hands.
And Lin Tian's eyes were also only on King Xi of Yan.
No matter who stood in his way, they were killed by him.
Then, he raised the sword in his hand and pointed it at the King of Yan who had been begging for mercy.
"To dare provoke Great Qin, to assassinate our Great King, this is the consequence!!"
With that, the sword in Lin Tian's hand drew a silver streak and directly severed King Xi of Yan's head.
The rolling head, just like that of Crown Prince Dan of Yan, stared with eyes wide open in death.
With the death of King Xi of Yan, all the Yan soldiers lost their will to fight.
King Xi of Yan was dead, meaning their Yan was truly doomed.
At this moment, countless people were dejected.
"It's over, our Yan is truly over!!"
"I never expected that our Yan would one day fall!"
"Wuwuwu! From today onwards, we are citizens of a fallen nation, our country is gone!!"
With Yan gone, the people of Yan fell into sorrow.
