He clenched his molars, looking at the densely packed Zhou soldiers raising the black sail with the white python flag, and sneered, "Surrounded but not attacking, it's merely because they don't have the courage to assault the city, yet they can't bear the fact that our Tianfeng Kingdom, with its Elephant Army, besieged and fought at Pingyang City previously. Stubbornly maintaining appearances while trying to display a façade of fearlessness in front of us Tianfeng Kingdom!"
The Great Shaman's disciple followed beside Sal Khan, feeling inexplicably ominous seeing that black sail with the white python flag. He suggested, "Your Majesty, why not we withdraw from Pingdu City first? Show subservience to Zhou, lower our posture... offer gold, silver, and smiles to deceive Zhou... make Zhou believe we Tianfeng Kingdom are not their match, perhaps then Zhou and Yan would be willing to lease us lands and cities!"
