Chapter 754: Quezhou was destroyed and the King of Que burned himself to death!
At this time, the people and defenders in the city had already been frightened in the previous battles. When they saw Xiang Yu personally leading his troops into the city, they were so frightened that they fled in all directions, and the entire city fell into chaos.

In the very center of the city, in a temporary palace of the King of Sparrows, the King of Sparrows sat in the lobby, surrounded by panicked servants and maids. They were crying and shouting, but no one dared to step forward.

The King of Sparrow, who was sitting at the very top, had a dismal smile. This prince, who was once extremely powerful, now had a look of reluctance and relief in his eyes.

He looked at the chaos in the mansion, a complicated curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, he listened quietly to the gradually approaching shouts and screams outside the mansion, as if he saw the arrogant figure of Xiang Yu, who was crushing his former glory step by step.

"Your Majesty, we..."

A concubine wanted to say something with a trembling voice, but was interrupted by the King of Sparrow with a gentle wave of his hand.

"No need to say more, this is fate, there is no escape."

The King of Sparrow's voice was calm, yet it revealed an unspeakable sadness, as if he was speaking to himself and to everyone present.

Now he has no way to retreat. Xiang Yu's Overlord Cavalry are as fierce as wolves and tigers, Quezhou has fallen into the hands of the enemy. It is time for him, the former king, to bid farewell.

King Que slowly stood up and looked around. The beautiful wives and concubines who had accompanied him in all the romantic lives and enjoyed wealth and glory were now looking at him with horror.

He suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, but more of it was relief. Rather than being captured and humiliated, it would be better to end his life and retain the last bit of dignity.

He did not want to become Xiang Yu's prisoner, and even more so did not want to see Quezhou, which he had built with his own hands, fall into the hands of others.

"You go."

"Each of you should find your own way to survive. There is no need to follow me, a dying man."

The King of Sparrows finally spoke, looking at the terrified servants and maids below, his voice low and hoarse.

Upon hearing this, the servants and maids below fell to their knees, crying and shouting, refusing to leave.

But the King of Sparrows just waved his hand and signaled them to leave. This was the last thing he could do for them now.

I guess he felt guilty before he died and didn't think of dragging more people to be buried with him.

When the last maid ran out of the palace crying, King Que turned and looked at his beautiful wives and concubines who had been with him for many years.

Their faces were also filled with fear and reluctance, but the King of Sparrows just smiled slightly, his smile full of apology.

The servants and maids could leave, but the King of Sparrow’s former wives and concubines could not.

Not to mention that the King of Sparrows would absolutely not allow it, even if the King of Sparrows let them go, their subsequent fate would not be much better.

As long as Xiang Yu doesn't have the habit of picking up broken shoes, what they will encounter next will be more than just one or two simple things.

Even according to Xiang Yu's character, most of them would probably be given to the Overlord Cavalry.

At that time, they would be living a life worse than death, so no matter for what the reason, King Sparrow would take them with him!

"I'm sorry for making you come to this point with me."

"But please believe me, this is my last dignity as the King of Sparrows and as a man."

King Que spoke softly, looking at the beautiful wives and concubines in front of him. Most of them were at the most glorious age of their lives, but now they were going to be buried here with him.

After saying that, he slowly walked towards a corner of the palace where a large amount of firewood and kerosene were piled.

He walked slowly towards the corner where dry firewood and kerosene that had been prepared long ago were piled.

The King of Sparrows lit the torches himself and poured kerosene on himself and the women. The flames rose instantly and illuminated the entire hall.

The blazing flames spread rapidly, devouring everything in the palace.

Those beautiful wives and concubines screamed and wanted to escape, but the King of Sparrow stopped them. He held their hands tightly, with no emotion in his eyes.

"Your Majesty!"

The women cried out in shock, but they were unable to stop the King of Sparrow's decision. They clung to him tightly, their tears and flames intertwined, turning into a tragic and beautiful scene.

"We may not sleep together in life, but we can be buried together in death."

"This is the last promise I can give you."

The Sparrow King smiled bitterly, the flames burned more and more vigorously, and the flames reflected the Sparrow King's resolute face.

He seemed to see himself when he was young. At that time, he was one of the three princes who held heavy troops and power after the Great Yong Dynasty became weak. He was full of vigor and ambition, and wanted to make a name for himself in this chaotic world.

But now, everything will be in vain.

But he did not regret it. At least he had had it and had struggled for it. That was enough.

The reason I’m in this situation now is simply because I’m not as skilled as others, I can’t blame anyone else!

The Sparrow King laughed in the firelight, with nostalgia for the past years.

"I am the Sparrow King. Even if I die, I will transform into the fire of the Phoenix Nirvana and burn everything!"

His figure gradually disappeared in the fire, leaving only a blazing flame that engulfed the entire King Que's Palace.

Xiang Yu, who was outside the city, looked at the flames rising into the sky from afar, and couldn't help feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

"My lord, the Sparrow King should have burned himself to death."

Gonggong walked up to Xiang Yu, looked at the fire rising into the sky from the center of the city, and said in a low voice.

Xiang Yu was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and looked ahead with a firm gaze.

"This is his choice, and it is also his last dignity as a king. However, a true king will never give up easily!"

"He's just a coward who won't face the facts!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, as if he was declaring his determination to everyone, or as if he was talking to himself!
He didn't know what decision he would make if he were in the city center at this moment.

Will he fight to the death, or choose to escape like the King of Sparrows?

He silently withdrew his gaze, gripped the Tianlong City-Breaking Halberd in his hand even tighter, and a determined light flashed in his eyes.

Since you are not sure, then
I just hope I can remain undefeated!

"Gong Gong, Long Qie, and Ji Bu."

Xiang Yu called out in a deep voice.

"exist!"

The three members of the alliance behind him responded in unison, their voices sonorous and powerful.

"The King of Sparrows has passed away, and Sparrow State is now in our hands. But our journey has just begun."

"The Great Yong Dynasty, and even the entire world, are waiting for us to conquer."

At this time, Xiang Yu's words were full of ambition and his eyes penetrated the flames in front of him, as if he saw the wider world of the Dayong Dynasty in the north.

"I wish to follow the king, conquer the four directions, and create an immortal hegemony together!"

Gonggong and the other three also looked excited. They looked at each other and responded in unison again.

As the flames in the Prince of Que's Mansion gradually died down, the Prince of Que, who represented one of the three most powerful princes of the Great Yong Dynasty, officially came to an end!

With the death of King Que, Quezhou officially became a possession of Xiang Yu and the Chu army.

This victory also officially represented that Xiang Yu and the Jiangdong Chu Army behind him had officially joined forces with the current chaos of the Dayong Dynasty.

It also represents that Xiang Yu has officially stepped into the chaotic situation of the Dayong Dynasty!
