He was signaling to Chiliarch Yang that Qin Silong had condemned him to death.
"Qin Silong, how dare you!"
Despite his extreme fluster, Chiliarch Yang maintained a defiant tone, believing he had a powerful supporter.
Qin Silong, however, brandished a sharp knife. "Do you think I dare?"
His words left no room for doubt. There was nothing he wouldn't dare to do.
Just as the other three chiliarchs were poised to intercede, Qin Silong gave them a cold glance. "It's futile no matter who pleads!"
"You all witnessed it. He's undermining us. This battle is now deemed unwinnable!"
"If we spare such an individual, how can we rejuvenate our morale?"
With a nod, he signaled the two men to lift Chiliarch Yang. Swiftly, Qin Silong severed Chiliarch Yang's carotid artery with lightning speed.
Chiliarch Yang, in his desperate state, didn't even have time to scream before succumbing to death.
