In Episode 16, titled ‘Li Mu’s Whereabouts,’ Li Mu made a surprise attack on the castle of Huasha, followed by small castles of Zong and Luan, and continued to head towards Xianyang.
Lord Chanping realized his motive to attack Xianyang when most of the troops were at Hangu pass and decided to guard Xianyang with whatever was left in the royal city.
Later, Xin and Lord Biao arrived with their troops and attacked Li Mu’s army from behind. Li Mu kept calm and ordered the creation of the Liudong flow.
But to his bad luck, Lord Biao sensed his move and tricked him into believing that he was winning. In the end, he appeared right in front of Li Mu and challenged him.
Will Li Mu’s arrogance cost him dearly? Let’s find out.
We bring you the latest episode updates for this anime.
Episode 17 Preview & Speculation
Li Mu made a miscalculation, being confident that no one could see through his move apart from him but Liao Diao was clever enough to understand his trick.
In addition, Li Mu got another shock when Lord Biao appeared in front of him despite the Liudong flow that he created. This might mean that it is the end for Li Mu.
Li Mu’s troops are exhausted from making the small castle fall and walking continuously for more than two days, which increases the probability of Li Mu’s defeat.
There is no doubt that he will find a way to get away from Lord Biao, but chances are that he will fail to conquer Xianyang in the end.

Episode 16 Recap
On the 16th day of the battle of Hangu pass, Lord Chunshen summons all his generals to discuss further about the war. Everyone assumes that Li Mu has withdrawn from the coalition army after finding him missing from the meeting.
Lord Chunshen reveals that Li Mu was commanded to send thousands of the best troops to him before disappearing. Two more days pass by but there is no sign of action from Zhao’s side.
Suddenly on the 18th day, soldiers guarding the tiny castle Huasha notice a big troop rushing towards them. Lord Changping receives a report of the attack.
Soon, he also learns about the small castles of Zong and Luan on fire and realizes that the enemies are getting closer to Xianyang. Just when he orders Jie Yi to head towards Neifu with his army, he receives another report of Neifu under attack.
Meanwhile, Li Mu leads the army of nearly 40 thousands troops and crosses the Qin’s midpoints. Lord Chanping realizes that Li Mu might reach the royal city of Xianyang soon and with half of his troops at Hangu pass, he decides to guard Xianyang with the troops at hand.
Li Mu’s troops attack the city of Shi and Lang, leaving no time for the Qins to strategize something, and continue on his journey to Xianyang.
But when Li Mu’s troops are just two days away from reaching Xianyang, Xin and Lord Biao arrive with their troops and attack the enemies from behind. Li Mu is ordered to use the Liudong flow, shocking everyone by making a huge whirlpool in the battlefield.
Liao Diao watches everything from above the cliff and recognizes that it is the same move that the Zhao army attempted right before the battle of Hangu pass. She realizes that the troops down there have no idea what’s going on and runs off to help them.
Meanwhile, Xin notices Lord Biao’s flags getting down from a distance when suddenly a huge explosion takes down some of Li Mu’s soldiers. Later, Lord Biao appears in front of Li Mu and comments that he understood his trick and distanced himself from his flags.
