When various forces learned that Li Pingyuan was leading a large army southward and hastily responded, news also came that Logan Zhuang had captured Hengdu.
The sensation caused was no less than that of Li Pingyuan's victory without a fight. They were both powerful capitals, but they surrendered so quickly. Logan Zhuang's act of chopping off the demonized body of King You and hanging it on the city gate was even more mysterious.
Since all the clan members of You Kingdom had been killed by Nie Jin, You Kingdom was leaderless and could not find anyone who could take the lead and resist.
The officials in the southern border had long been frightened by the brutality of King You Nie Jin. They had also witnessed King You's power with their own eyes. The tragic scene of the breached city was right in front of them. It was a force that was almost impossible to defeat. No one believed that Nie Jin would die, no one.
Hearing that Logan Zhuang had beheaded King You in the palace and hung his body and head on the outer city gate for everyone to see, these officials were very sensible. Even though they knew that Logan Zhuang had killed many people in Jingting and implemented the new tax law, it did not change their firm determination to surrender. How can humans fight against gods and demons?
