"A spectator? Our mistake?" The Generals frowned, looking at each other. Both of them had no idea what Xu Shan was talking about. However, as they were confused, they noticed a single coin, rolling on the ground.
The coin belonged to the Qin Dynasty.
As soon as the two Generals saw the coin, and looked back to Xu Shan's words, their eyes revealed a look of understanding.
For the person to be so arrogant before them, that could only mean one thing! He was with their allies, the Qin Dynasty!
So far, the Qin Dynasty hasn't sent any soldiers. They only sent their initial plans, along with treasures to execute their plans. However, it did make sense that they had someone watching over them.
If one of the plans failed, it would've made sense that the person was forced to reveal himself and was angry.
"You were given a simple task! Kidnap the Queen and her daughter and kill the army of the Eternal Dynasty! But your men couldn't even pull that off! It makes us wonder if allying with you was even worth it!"
Xu Shan's tone appeared as if he was chiding them. However, to everyone's surprise, the Generals weren't reacting. They were just taking all the scolding.
If anything, their mind was still distracted by what they heard! The plan about kidnapping the queen of the Estel Kingdom... Only the Qin Dynasty and the Sky Dynasty higher ups knew about it!
This was supposed to be the moment for the Third Army to shine! Not according to the man before them, the plan had failed?
"Looking at how you two idiots were enjoying this place, I suppose you didn't even know the plan failed? Truly useless!"
Xu Shan walked closer to the lifeless soldier who was lying right before the two Generals, not caring about getting close to the Generals he had just scolded.
He grabbed the dagger that was stabbed on the lifeless body. He pulled out the dagger, and wiped the blood from that man's clothes before keeping the dagger safe.
From start to finish, his words showed no flaws. However, with just words, it would've been hard to prove his identity. That's why, he used his overconfident stature to distract them so they couldn't even have time to doubt him.
"In that case, I suppose your Prince doesn't know about it as well? No wonder he wasn't selected as the Crown Prince."
The masked man lightly shook his head, before turning around. "I suppose it's better to give up on the Third Army. I should rather watch over the Second Army instead. They should be more capable!"
Xu Shan turned to leave. Watching him leave, the two Generals finally sprung into action.
"Wait a minute! Please give us one more chance! We will correct our mistakes! We'll definitely wipe the Eternal Dynasty Army!"
Xu Shan stopped in his tracks. "The Qin Dynasty doesn't give a person second chances. That's why you were given only one plan, and no backup plans."
He waved his hand, as he continued walking away.
However, just as he was about to step out of the bar which was filled with guards, one of the Generals called out.
"Wait! Just one chance! Please talk to our Prince! If you can help him, he might have a chance of becoming the Crown Prince! We'll pay you with whatever you want when that happens!"
"Just one last chance!" The Second General also exclaimed.
Initially, they could've at least been more suspicious. However, since Xu Shan didn't seem to have any intention of even bothering with them, it made them feel that he wasn't trying to scam them. The thought didn't even cross their mind.
What was worse was that Xu Shan was leaving in such urgency that this didn't even give them much time to think about it.
Xu Shan stopped right at the threshold of the Bar, before glancing back. His cold eyes gazed at both the Generals.
"What can you offer me that the Eldest Princess won't?" Xu Shan asked. However, behind his mask, his lips had curved into a smile.
"I'm just supposed to be a Spectator. The only reason I acted was because you frustrated me so much with your ignorance. However, if you really want me to help you, what can you offer me that the others can't?" he continued with his question. "You have twenty minutes to find an answer to that question."
As he finished, he walked back to one of the empty seats. He placed another Qin Dynasty gold coin on the table, before telling the waitress to bring more wine.
The Waitress was monetarily frozen. From what she heard, the person before her had an even higher position than the Two Generals, who appeared like gods to her.
She knew she couldn't make any mistakes. She hastily brought more jars of wine, personally serving Xu Shan.
At the same time, the two Generals quickly brought out a beautiful gem to contact the Prince.
In reality, the commanders of all three armies had an orb that allowed them to contact Qin Ye in times of emergencies.
However, as soon as the Third Prince of the Sky Dynasty heard that their mistake caused the plan to fail, he didn't have any courage to contact Qin Ye.
Fortunately, he also found out that Qin Ye wasn't informed about this failure yet. This made him feel that the Spectator from the Qin Dynasty was his last lifeline.
If Qin Ye found out that he had failed, then this news was going to reach the Sky Dynasty Emperor, which was going to be a heavy blow for his dreams of becoming the Crown Prince.
No matter what, he had to destroy Eternal Dynasty Forces here before this news spread! And to make sure the news didn't reach Qin Ye, he first had to make the Spectator loyal to him!
"Bring him to me! Tell him that I have a perfect gift to show our sincerity to him!" The Third Prince of the Sky Dynasty hastily exclaimed, as he continued pacing back and forth in his room.
