<h4>Chapter 1872: Chapter 1973: He Holds Up the Sky for Them</h4>


    Sure enough, just as Danyer finished speaking, both sides shouted and charged at each other.


    Sparta and Silu stood there without moving, with others protecting them.


    "Aren’t they all going to fight together? Why aren’t they fighting?" Tie Zhuziined while hiding inside the house.


    "They are the bosses, so naturally they don’t have to fight. Usually, they just watch," Danyer responded nonchntly.


    "Isn’t this ridiculous? They were so aggressive at the start; I thought they were the vanguard," Tie Zhuzi said.


    Danyer nced at Tie Zhuzi, puzzled, and said, "This is how bosses are treated; you’ll understand eventually."


    "Hmph!" Tie Zhuzi snorted discontentedly and said nothing more.


    Seeing Tie Zhuzi’s defiant look, Danyer originally intended to teach him a bit but, seeing the heated battle in front, he couldn’t be bothered and carefully observed the battlefield.


    At that moment, on the rooftop, everyone was tensely watching below. Among them were Jieke and his sister Xi’er.


    Jieke searched around but couldn’t find Xiang Yu after looking for a long time.


    "Where are they? Where did they go?" Jieke asked anxiously.


    Xi’er patted her brother’s shoulder and said, "Don’t have too much hope in them; maybe they’re not as great as you think."


    "Impossible, I trust them," Jieke said with widened eyes, trying hard to find Xiang Yu.


    Back then, Xiang Yu gave him a dream, a dream of rebuilding his home.


    Moreover, Xiang Yu asked him to gather the civilians here. At this moment, probably two-thirds of the people on the rooftop had arrived.


    The others had no hope for their home and were merely living day by day.


    Seeing her brother so anxious, Xi’er pointed downstairs and said, "Look there."


    Jieke looked in the direction Xi’er pointed, only to see Tie Zhuzi and several others peering out from the window, watching themotion.


    They weren’t participating in the fight at all; they were hiding.


    Seeing this scene, Jieke felt a pang in his heart; he felt tricked. He thought Xiang Yu would fight head-on with those people below and defeat them all.


    "I’m going to find him," Jieke said and turned to run downstairs.


    "Stop," Xi’er, seeing her brother run off, couldn’t ignore it and followed after him.


    After all, the battle was fierce, and if her brother got hurt, it wouldn’t be worth it.


    Jieke ran desperately downstairs, and as he reached the base, someone was kicked into the air, crashing toward him.


    Jieke quickly dodged and ran towards the ce where Xiang Yu and the others were hiding.


    Xi’er followed closely, almost vomiting from the bloody scene below.


    Watching from above was one thing; experiencing the war firsthand was another.


    After all, she was a woman; although she was a leader, she had natural disadvantages in warfare.


    She crouched down, almost vomiting, but seeing Jieke had already run ahead, she forced herself to keep going.


    If she hadn’t understood Xiang Yu and the others before, she now knew a bit: Xiang Yu and his group were cowards who only talked big.


    Jieke arrived at Xiang Yu and his group’s hiding ce, stood by the door, and shouted, "Why aren’t you going out there to fight? Are you scared?"


    Xiang Yu didn’t expect Jieke to run over here. Just as he was about to step forward, Danyer sneered and walked over with a knife.


    "Kid, where did you run out from? Looking to die?" Danyer grinned as he approached Jieke, reaching out to grab him.


    At this moment, Xi’er arrived and forcefully pulled her brother back.


    At the sight of Xi’er, Danyer’s eyes went wide. He’d been in the slums for years and knew everyone, pretty or not.


    But the moment he saw Xi’er, he was sure he’d never seen her. Otherwise, he’d remember.


    "Miss, howe I’ve never seen you before?" Danyer almost drooled.


    Xi’er snorted disdainfully and then looked at Xiang Yu, "Do you n to hide here forever?"


    Danyer was stunned for a moment, then turned to Xiang Yu and said, "You know each other? Nice job, finding such a pretty girl so soon after arriving."


    "Don’t rush; we’ll go out once they’ve fought enough," Xiang Yu said calmly, ignoring Danyer, and looked at Xi’er.


    Seeing Xiang Yu ignoring him in front of the beauty, Danyer felt embarrassed, then said to Xi’er, "So you know my brother here. He’s under me, listens to everything I say."


    Xi’er looked at Xiang Yu coldly and said, "I figured as much. Jieke, let’s go."


    "Where do you think you’re going?" Danyer blocked Xi’er immediately.


    Seeing the machete in Danyer’s hand, both Xi’er and Jieke took a half-step back.


    "Since you’re here, why not have some fun?" Danyerughed heartily.


    He’s been with many women here, but never one as pretty as her.


    "I’ll fight you," Jieke gritted his teeth and charged at Danyer.


    From his rushing posture andck of defense, it was obvious Jieke had no battle experience.


    Danyer could see it too, and as Jieke rushed at him, he snorted and raised his machete to sh at Jieke.


    "Jieke, watch out!" Xi’er shouted in shock.


    Xi’er was too far to save him, and as she saw Danyer’s machete fall, she covered her eyes in fright.


    "Ah!"


    A scream, followed by the sound of someone falling to the ground.


    "Brother!" Xi’er shouted and quickly opened her eyes, only to see Jieke still standing there.


    While Danyer had been kicked far away.


    Standing beside Jieke was a tall man, with sharp features, incredibly handsome, none other than Xiang Yu.


    Jieke was also stunned. Charging vigorously, but when he saw the knife about to hit him, he waspletely dumbfounded.


    If Xiang Yu hadn’t kicked the opponent away, he might have fallen.


    "Jieke," Xi’er reacted first, rushing to embrace her brother and retreating quickly.


    Danyer, hit by a kick, felt a burning pain.


    "Damn you, you kicked the wrong person," Danyer shouted at Xiang Yu, but seeing Xiang Yu’s off gaze, he looked at Xiang Yu and then at Tie Zhuzi, "What are you doing, having breakfast?"


    "That guy just now is my little brother; you can’t hurt him," Xiang Yu said with a faint smile.


    Jieke, upon hearing this, froze. All his life, he lived in fear. Years ago, when his parents passed, they left him ast wish to protect his sister, so he always pretended to be strong.


    But now, suddenly someone stood up for him, creating a shelter over his head; his nose tingled, and he cried.


    Standing behind Xiang Yu, he felt Xiang Yu was very tall, like his father...
