Chapter 124

  Yi Mu walked slowly to his side, "The commotion outside is very loud."

  "Yes." Lan Jing said quietly, "Are you referring to outside the palace or outside the capital?"

  "Outside the palace." Yi Mu's eyebrows and eyes showed a faint hint of sorrow, she said softly.

  Lan Yun said with a warm smile, "It's still not big enough."

  Yi Mu looked at him with this calm demeanor and said, "You're becoming increasingly more stable."

  "I've died once already, what's there to be unhappy about?" Lan Jingxian turned his gaze, looking at Yi Mu, "At worst, I'll just die again."

  Her eyes sparkled slightly as she smiled and replied, "Being broad-minded is always better than being narrow-minded."

  Lan Xuan smiled but didn't speak, over the years of getting along with him, he more or less understood the people around him, Yi Mu's thoughts had always been deep, although he couldn't guess them all, he could also roughly know a thing or two from his words, he had secrets that he didn't want others to see through.

  The imperial palace was suddenly surrounded, with dark guards standing guard at the walls and the Imperial Guard's faces cold and stern, holding long knives, looking at the black-clad man in front of them with piercing eyes. A gust of cold wind blew by, exuding a chilling fear.

  On the city wall, Yi Yang looked at Bai Feng sitting on a fine horse, looking at the first wave of soldiers who had not yet taken the city. He raised his hand and saw behind him hundreds of large wooden carts slowly moving forward, carrying hundreds of kilograms of iron stones.

  "What is this?" Yi Yang had never seen such a weapon before and couldn't help but ask.

  "They were indeed clever, exchanging the large stone for an iron one." Xue Ke's eyes dimmed as she thought about how much more powerful this iron stone was compared to the flying boulder.

  Yi Yang listened to Xue Ke's words, turned his gaze, and looked at the large stone that was being pushed out. He nodded in understanding, "This is their improved weapon."

  "If that's the case, then let them come and attack. This city gate will surely be broken." Xue Ke gazed at the smile in Chu Ling Tian's eyes, she also revealed a sly smile, then looked towards Yi Yang, "Fortunately, Master had sent people to secretly observe Xuemo's movements early on, and was prepared early on."

  Yi Yang listened to Xue Ke's words, his face filled with skepticism, "You say there is a way to crack this thing?"

  "Of course." Xue Ke's eyes shone brightly as she looked again at Chu Ling Tian below the city wall, then tapped her toes lightly and flew down from the city wall.

  Yi Yang did not stop her, and at this time, Xue Ke was able to remain so calm, it was clear that she must have had a plan, and someone who could be trusted by the emperor must be extraordinary, although she was just an ordinary woman.

  Chu Ling Tian saw Xue Ke flying down from a distance, and then landed under the city tower. He was still riding on his horse, with his eyes fixed on her body all the time.

  Xue Ke gazed straight at the wooden carts moving slowly, her mouth hooked up, standing still. As the carts moved, the soldiers of Xuanmo Country had already received orders and retreated.

  Under the majestic city gate, a slender figure stood, calm and serene, with a faint smile, without any fear.

  In the quiet sky, the rumbling sound of wooden carts echoed, and with each forward movement, it could make the earth shake several times. Chu Ling Tian looked at her figure, thinking that she was going to use her frail body to withstand these hundreds of kilograms of iron and stone?

  His eyes sank, staring straight at her, only to see her smiling deeply at him, without moving an inch.

  Bai Feng turned her gaze, looking at Chu Ling Tian's eyes with a hint of worry, "What, can't bear to part?"

  Chu Lingtian turned around and glanced at Bai Feng, saying in a low voice, "Joke, isn't she just a woman? What do I have to be reluctant about?"

  Bai Feng listened to his words and didn't comment, continuing to say, "She's doing this just to test you."

  Chu Ling Tian had always known, but thinking of those few days being teased by her, and that one night's entanglement, his hand holding the reins tightened, she would rather die in his hands than anywhere else.

  Xue Ke could see the emotions in Chu Ling Tian's eyes, her smile deepened, she crossed her arms and leaned against the bluestone on one side of the city gate, raised an eyebrow, and stared at Chu Ling Tian with a provocative gaze, as if daring him to give in.

  Chu Lingtian felt a little annoyed, why would he be emotionally affected by a woman who brought him great shame. His eyes sank and he didn't look at her.

  After the iron stone was ready, Bai Feng raised his hand, turned around, and glanced at Chu Lingtian, seeing that he had no expression on his face, then waved his hand.

  Then he saw a huge iron stone flying out of the wooden cart and rushing straight towards the city gate.

  Yi Yang and the soldiers of Feng Guo looked at the large stone in front of them, then turned to look at Xue Ke standing at the city gate, scaring them so much that their hearts were racing, for a moment they forgot to breathe, just staring motionlessly.

  Xue Ke also hooked the corner of her mouth, staring motionlessly at the iron stone flying towards her. Because the iron stone was too heavy, and the pulling force on the wooden cart must have been experimented with, it could fly out from a distance of ten zhang without falling halfway, showing how great the power hidden in the iron stone was. If it really crashed over, Xue Ke would definitely follow the iron stone and smash into the city gate, bursting out a big hole.

  As the iron stone rushed towards Xue Ke, Chu Lingtian's mind went blank and he flew out without thinking. Just as the iron stone was about to hit Xue Ke, he had already landed in front of her, pulling her into his arms and dodging the iron stone.

  Chu Ling Tian hugged her, then landed on the ground, staring at her coldly. However, he met her smiling eyes and suddenly pushed her away from his arms, turned around, and flew away.

  Xue Ke watched as he flew away, not stopping him, but standing in place, turning his gaze, and saw that the iron stone, under the gaze of the crowd, when it hit the city gate, did not open a large hole in the city gate as expected by Xuanmo Country, but instead fell elegantly to the ground, smashing a large pit into the earth.

  Bai Feng's eyes flashed with astonishment, and he raised his gaze to meet Xue Ke's cold and detached eyes. It was clear that he didn't dare to believe it, after all, this was something they had tested countless times, ensuring absolute safety before daring to use it. How could this be?

  Xue Ke clapped her hands and turned around, landing on the city wall.

  Yi Yang looked at Xue Ke and asked in confusion, "How is this possible?"

  "The city gate has been tampered with since early morning." Xue Ke blinked her eyes, looking at Yi Yang, "Has the master sent someone to find the Thousand Year Mysterious Iron and press it onto the city gate?"

  Yi Yang suddenly enlightened, smiled and said, "Your Majesty is indeed a god at handling affairs."

  Xue Ke listened to Yi Yang's words, and was very pleased, hurriedly nodding her head, "Yes." With a proud and dignified expression.

  Chu Lingtian looked at Xue Ke's smug expression, feeling annoyed, then turned his gaze to Bai Feng, "How did this iron stone suddenly fall?"

  Bai Feng didn't respond, but instead stared at the city gate for a while before raising his hand to signal the wooden cart to retreat. He then turned to him and said, "They've been prepared for this."

  "It's already been an hour now, if we can't take it down by tomorrow, we'll have to face military law." Chu Lingtian raised his eyes and glared fiercely at Xue Ke, whose smile was as bright as a flower.

  Bai Feng looked at Chu Ling Tian, "Why did you just go and save her?"

  Chu Lingtian was taken aback for a moment, then said in a cold voice, "Even if it's death, she will die by my hand."

  "Deceptive words." Bai Feng's eyes gleamed with cold light, but his tone was calm and collected. He raised his gaze to take in the scene before him. "I didn't expect this small country of Feng to be so formidable. I thought you, a renowned young general from the esteemed Xuanmo Kingdom, would never be outdone by a woman from a small nation, let alone be taken captive and forced into marriage. Do you know that your current predicament has made you quite famous?"

  Chu Lingtian thought of this and became angry again, "Hmph, the Spirit Vulture Country is just her luck, heaven has unpredictable winds and clouds, it's just that I didn't investigate for a while."

  "The principle of 'soldiers don't despise deceit' shouldn't be forgotten by you. You can't blame others for losing a move in chess, after all, once you didn't take advantage of it." Bai Feng said coolly.

  "Don't stand there talking, aren't you afraid of back pain? If you have the ability, why don't you flatten Fengguo today?" Chu Lingtian listened to Bai Fen's calm words, and the fire in his heart grew even more intense.

  Bai Feng smiled lightly, "The Phoenix Country is nothing but a treasure in our bag."

  "Don't underestimate the Emperor of Feng Guo, he's not a minor character." Chu Ling Tian recalled the first time he saw Feng Ao Tian, who was just a handsome man with an innate aura that made people dare not look straight at him. Compared to his own wise and powerful emperor, he was in no way inferior.

  Bai Feng gazed sideways at Chu Lingtian for a long time, "You really think you're the son-in-law of Feng Guo now?"

  Chu Ling Tian curled up the corner of his mouth, "Nonsense."

  Bai Feng looked at Chu Ling Tian's indignant expression and suddenly felt amused. He raised his eyes and gazed at Yi Yang on the city wall, "This person is not my opponent."

  "You're always so confident." Chu Lingtian raised his eyes and took a glance at Yi Yang. As for Feng Guo, all they knew about her was the reputation of being cruel and violent, just rumors of her past misdeeds, nothing more. They didn't take Feng Guo seriously, thinking that growing up in a prosperous land and strong country had made them arrogant, never putting small countries in their hearts. The war with Ling Que Country was a huge shame for Chu Lingtian, also a profound lesson. Not only did he lose the dignity of being a general, but also his pride as a man.

  His cold and stern face exuded an innate confidence, and it was a rare thing to find someone who could be his equal in his eyes.

  Xue Ke looked at Yi Yang, "Commander Yi, it seems that Bai Fen doesn't take you seriously."

  Yi Yang also saw the determination in Bai Feng's eyes. His gaze sank, "Indeed, it is presumptuous."

  Xue Ke smiled but didn't speak, now she was thinking of holding onto the city wall before the master arrived.

  Outside the palace, it was already a bloody battle. Inside the palace, including the Imperial Guard, there were only about 20,000 people, facing off against 50,000 well-trained soldiers whose martial arts skills were not weak. Compared to the Imperial Guard, they could hold their own for a while, but this was not a long-term solution.

  Nowadays, the entire imperial city outside is stained with blood color, dyeing the crimson palace walls even more deeply red.

  Feng Ao rode "Ao Xue", counting the time, and in another two hours, he would be able to arrive at the capital.

  The tomcat tightly wrapped around Feng Ao Tian's waist, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself that when they returned to the capital, Lao Jiu Gui would surely get what he wanted. However, thinking about it, if someone fell into Lao Jiu Gui's hands, they would definitely follow their master's preferences and strip Xuan Yuan Yun bare, presenting him in front of his master. It was inevitable that some displeasure would arise, after all, Xuan Yuan Yun had status, position, and looks. Alas, poor guy could resist the charms of a married woman but couldn't resist those of a wildflower.

  Feng Ao Tian listened to Master Cat's faint sighs and asked, "What's wrong with you again?"

  The tom cat rubbed against Feng Ao Tian's back and said, "I'm allergic to pollen."

  Feng Ao Tian's mouth twitched at the corner, "From that day on, I'll wear a veil."

  The cat grumbled discontentedly, "Master is dissatisfied with me again."

  Feng Ao Tian did not respond, letting the cold wind blow across her face, disturbing her green silk hair, she just looked forward, this time, she must give Xuan Yuan Yu a lifelong unforgettable lesson.

  Inside the wine tower, Xuan Yuan Yu listened to the shouting and killing sounds echoing in the sky above the capital city. The corners of his mouth curled up into a rare joyful smile. This sound was particularly pleasant to his ears. Although he didn't like seeing blood, what he liked most was hearing the sound of people being killed.

  The attendant stood respectfully on one side, waiting for his orders.

  Le Qiguo, Wei Zimo stood for a whole day, and in his heart, there seemed to be an echoing voice, this voice entwined all his current thoughts, making it impossible for him to calm down.

  Xing Wuyun glanced sideways, looking at the newly renovated Furan Pavilion across from him, and couldn't help but think of Wei Zimeng, who had been outsmarted. A hint of unruly smile played on his lips as he suddenly flew over and landed on the opposite balcony.

  Zi Yun had already prepared the tea and placed it to one side, looking at Xing Wu Yun, "Young Master Xing, take a look, isn't this Furuong Pavilion even more spacious than before?"

  "Ah, indeed a new look." Xing Wuyun sized her up, then picked up the teacup, took a sip, and lightly sniffed the tea fragrance, sweeping away the annoyance in his heart. He shouldn't have worried about Feng Ao Tian to begin with; with her abilities, she naturally wouldn't let Xuan Yuan Yun succeed.

  Wei Zimo turned her gaze, looking at Xing Wuyun's carefree appearance, and suddenly felt that she was wandering aimlessly in this place for what reason? Immediately, she gathered her emotions, turned around, and left the wine tower.

  Xing Wuyun watched as the enchanting figure left, a slight smile playing on his lips as he savored his tea, then turned to look at Zi Yu, who was equally calm and composed. "You're not worried about your master at all."

  Zi Yu looked at Xing Wu Yun, "The slave has done the master's bidding, which is the best reward for the master. If something really happens to the master, the slave will follow the master."

  Xing Wuyun smiled lightly and said, "You are indeed loyal to her."

  "Loyalty to one's master is a blessing for slaves." Ziyu looked at Xing Wuyun, "Young Master Xing, our master has always been a sentimental person, her ruthless methods have never been used on her own people."

  Xing Wuyun played with the teacup in his hand, "She is very good at winning people's hearts."

  Zi Yu remained silent and still, then bowed and retreated.

  Xing Wuyun raised his eyes, gazing at the midnight sky, with an obscure and ambiguous expression in his eyes. He reclined on the soft couch, looking out into the night.

  Bian Guan, Leng Qianye and Mu Han Yao were discussing with other generals how to break through the Qi State. Outside the tent, it was unusually quiet, but they didn't know that they would soon face another conspiracy by Dugu Xingye.

  Inside the palace, Lan Jing looked at the dark guards protecting the emperor's bedroom, and the cries of killing were getting closer.

  Gu Ye Feng put down the book in his hand and looked at Lan Jing Xue, "It's already four watches into the night now."

  "Mm." Lan Jing nodded, "In two more hours, it will be dawn."

  "The city gate still looks like it can hold up." Gu Ye Feng said again.

  "This time, the one leading the troops is Bai Feng." Lan Yunshu turned his gaze towards Gu Ye Feng.

  "Bai Feng?" Gu Ye Feng's eyes flashed with a bright light. As for Bai Feng, he naturally knew him.

  "I knew you'd be interested." Lan Jing picked up her teacup and took a light sip, speaking in a warm tone.

  "It seems it's nothing more than this after all." Gu Ye Feng said calmly with a slight curl of his lip, as the city gate had yet to be breached.

  Yi Mu looked at him with a faint smile, "Although the Emperor is not in the capital, he knows that Xuan Mo Huang will take action, so he made arrangements early on. Otherwise, you and I wouldn't be able to have such leisure time to discuss others."

  "Yes, Your Majesty is indeed wise and powerful, intelligent beyond ordinary people." Gu Ye Feng hastily echoed.

  Xue Ke lowered his head, looking at the two groups of soldiers who were strongly attacking the city tower. More importantly, Bai Feng had quickly found the weaknesses of the city tower and the Fengguo soldiers in several rounds of attacks, and he was specifically targeting the weak points of the city tower. Now, there is a strong momentum to break through.

  Xue Ke also saw through it, but was unmoved.

  Yi Yang saw it in his eyes, although he increased the military strength, but also to no avail. He turned his gaze to Xue Ke and said, "If this place is breached, the entire city wall will collapse."

  "Uh-huh." Xue Ke nodded, "Weaknesses are advantages."

  "Is there a benefit?" Yi Yang looked at Xue Ke, his eyes shining brightly, "Was this a trap you deliberately set up?"

  "The Emperor knew the weakness of the city wall long ago, so although this place is easy to break through, it's also a dead end. After breaking through, there's only a narrow path inside, with hidden weapons installed all around. This path is usually used by ordinary people for walking, but once another exit is blocked, it becomes a purgatory. Whoever enters will never come out alive." Xue Ke whispered.

  Yi Yang listened, and in his heart, he was naturally joyful. As for Feng Ao Tian, he no longer had the same dislike as before, but now had more respect.

  Xue Ke turned her gaze, seeing that the weak point had been breached, and then, more than a thousand soldiers of the Xuanmo Kingdom rushed in, wave after wave, but after a long time, not one person came out.

  Bai Feng also waited for a long time, raised her eyes, saw Xue Ke's triumphant expression, and thought of something, secretly calling it bad, then raised her hand and ordered the soldiers to withdraw.

  He rode his horse forward in person, and when he arrived at the scene, he saw a river of blood. His eyes sank, and then he turned around and left.

  Chu Lingtian looked at Bai Feng's gloomy eyes and naturally knew that it must be a trap set by the Phoenix Country. Thinking of the many soldiers who had been sent to their deaths in vain, he couldn't help but feel heartache. He raised his gaze, looking at Xue Ke, and with a light tap of his toe, he sprang into the air.

  Xue Ke was still smiling as she gazed at him, watching him fall in front of her, and smiled, "Ken is back?"

  Chu Lingtian raised his hand and waved it at Xue Ke. He was now out of breath, but didn't know what he was angry about.

  Xue Ke let out a low laugh and countered his palm wind, and the two of them started fighting on the city wall.

  Yi Yang did not block it, but instead stared at the white maple under the city tower, thinking about what he should do next.

  The soldiers of the Xuanmo Kingdom did not expect to fall into the trap of a small country, losing so many brothers, and their hearts were even more indignant. They raised their eyes one after another, gazing at the blood-soaked city tower.

  He coldly looked back, and indeed underestimated Feng Guo. Now, he had suffered loss after loss. He suddenly raised his hand, and saw that the soldiers were already standing in their original positions, eager to try again.

  He waved his hand, and compared to the strong attack just now, it was even more powerful, like a stormy rain, instantly about to swallow the entire Feng Guo.

  Yi Yang gazed at the surging Xuanmo soldiers before him, and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the might of the strong country's soldiers. However, although Feng Country was small, it wasn't one to be bullied by just anyone.

  He also waved his hand, welcoming another war.

  Inside the wine house, Xuan Yuan Yu listened to the news from the city tower at all times, and sneered in his heart, "Bai Feng has met his match now."

  "Your Majesty, it seems that the Emperor of Feng Guo is indeed formidable. He was able to set up an ambush at the border even before dawn." The attendant said beside him.

  "What about the imperial palace?" Xuan Yuan thought that the city wall was impenetrable, it must have been well-prepared in advance. What about this imperial palace? Could there be a powerful person here too?

  The eunuch hastily replied, "Your Majesty, they have already rushed into the palace."

  "En, good." Xuan Yuan nodded, "Half a time after, I will enter the palace."

  "Yes." The attendant replied.

  Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew by, carrying the faint scent of wine. Xuan Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he remained seated on the soft couch, and then he saw an elderly man in plain clothes standing before him.

  The attendants saw the approaching person and hastily blocked Xuan Yuan Yi's side, "How dare you!"

  Xuanyuan Yu looked at the old man in front of him, with a head full of silver hair but no beard, standing with his hands stretched out, and his whole body emitting a faint fragrance without any dust.

  "My master wants to see you." The newcomer was none other than Wine Butler, who spoke bluntly and then waved his sleeve, heading towards Xuan Yuan Yi.

  Xuanyuan Yun dodged his palm wind with a fluttering movement and sat down on one side, "Good skills."

  The old wine master didn't utter a word, and continued to strike out with his hands. Each palm he struck was accompanied by an air of leisurely elegance, yet was extremely fierce.

  Xuanyuan Yu's martial arts were naturally not weak, and at first, he was able to easily parry the attacks. However, after less than an hour, he became exhausted, and his body didn't have a single thread of energy left. He immediately used one hand to prop himself up against the table, raised his eyes, and looked at him, saying "You actually dare to plot against me."

  As he spoke, he turned his head and saw that the bodyguards and attendants beside him had already fallen to the ground, limp and powerless.

  The wine shopkeeper didn't say a word, but with a wave of his palms, the brocade robe on Xuan Yuan's body was shattered, and his crystal-like skin glistened in the candlelight, radiating an enchanting glow.

  He had not yet reacted when he was wrapped in a brocade quilt on the bed, his body lightened and lost consciousness.

  The servant watched helplessly as his master was taken away, but he had no strength to rescue him, and struggled desperately on the bed.

  His soul watched as the soldiers of Xuanmo Country broke into the imperial palace, charging in. He had already fallen to the front of the Emperor's bedroom, looking at the soldiers before him, his eyes flashing with coldness.

  Lan Yun looked at the soldiers rushing from afar, still calmly sitting on the soft couch, turning his gaze to Yi Mu, "Faster than I imagined."

  "There's another hour before dawn breaks." Yi Mu raised her eyes and gazed at the sky outside the palace, saying softly.

  Gu Ye Feng spent another sleepless night, putting down the book in his hand, "This time, it seems that you and I will be sleeping for a long time."

  "Death is just a matter of sooner or later for me." Yì Mù said calmly with a clear and composed expression.

  Gu Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, "Indeed, you are someone who has seen through life and death."

  Lan Yun didn't say a word, looking at the soul by the door, thinking that he probably wouldn't be able to see the Emperor for the last time.

  A figure fell down, Lan Jing Shu raised her eyes and looked at the person in front of her. As for Jiǔ Gōnggōng, she naturally knew him, because he had narrowly escaped death, all thanks to his timely rescue.

  The soul saw the newcomer, his face showed joy, and he hurried forward, saying, "Wine sir."

  This sound made Lan Jing Shu hear clearly. He turned his eyes, looked at the wine public, then looked at the brocade quilt in his arms and said, "It seems like there's someone inside."

  "The Emperor of the Ink Country is here, who dares to make a move!" The wine eunuch's voice was low and menacing, his eyes scanning coldly over the soldiers who had already rushed forward.

  The soldiers suddenly stopped and looked at each other in dismay.

  The wine steward waved his hand, and the brocade quilt was lifted to reveal a corner. The stunningly beautiful face of Xuan Yuan Yi appeared before them, causing them to startle in surprise and hastily kneel down on the ground.

  The wine old man turned around and said, "Whoever dares to take another step forward, I will cut a knife on the body of Xuán Mò Huáng."

  The soldiers of the Xuanmo Kingdom listened and looked at their master, who was caught by a eunuch. However, now they were concerned about the safety of the emperor.

  The soul looked at the wine public who appeared in time, and was overjoyed in his heart. He guessed that his master would arrive soon, and said to the wine public, "Wine public, you came just in time."

  The wine gentleman still had a faint light in his eyes and did not speak, but instead, followed Xuan Yuan Yi and turned around, entering the bedroom.

  Lan Yun hastily stood up and walked forward, saying "Wine Sir".

  The old man just nodded slightly and turned around, leading Xuan Yuan to the inner hall.

  Yi Mu looked at Wine Public and then turned to Lan Jing Shu, "The length of this Xuan Mo Huang is truly extremely beautiful."

  Lan Yun Shu listened to his words, among them, who wasn't a handsome person, only he was just delicate. He followed the inner hall and saw Xuan Yuan Yi sleeping soundly, with a face as smooth as jade, an unmatched beauty, even in sleep, exuding a fierce aura. His thin lips were pursed, like a tiger or leopard pretending to be asleep, making people dare not get close.

  Lan Xuan had long heard that he was also fond of killing people, and now, seeing his true appearance, he couldn't help but think of the Emperor, their temperaments were somewhat similar.

  Yi Mu looked at Lan Xuan and stared at Xuan Yuan Yu in a daze, smiling lightly and saying, "You also like to daydream now?"

  Lan Yun Shu listened to Yi Mu's words and thought of Feng Ao Tian even more, then turned around and walked away.

  Yi Mu saw him with a heavy look, helplessly sighed, turned his eyes, and found that Gu Ye Feng had already fallen asleep on the soft couch.

  He thought that in this world, he was probably living the simplest life of all.

  Outside the city gate, the soldiers of Xuanmo Country had already climbed up to the top of the city wall, while the city gate was being desperately rammed. Yi Yang looked at this scene and then turned to Xue Ke, "Bai Feng has made up his mind to break through the city gate."

  "Yes, but I'm afraid his calculations will come to nothing." Xue Ke raised her eyes and saw a bright white figure rushing towards them from afar.

  Yi Yang followed Xue Ke's line of sight and also saw that bright light, and couldn't help but ask, "What is that?"

  "General will know soon." Xue Ke's smile deepened, and she turned to look at Yi Yang, "General, after today, you'll have a battle to fight."

  Yi Yang glanced sideways at Xue Ke, seeing that she had a meaningful expression on her face. "This little girl is even more formidable than me."

  Xue Ke smiled and said, "General, how can you say that? Who in this entire Feng country doesn't know your great name? I'm just a little servant girl."

  "When did you become humble?" Yi Yang thought that Xue Ke was quite interesting, this time with Bai Feng's battle, he also knew some things, perhaps, he really was old and it was time to retire.

  In less than a moment, a white light flashed through the soldiers of Xuanmo Country and landed in front of Bai Feng.

  Bai Feng was taken aback at first, but when he saw the person in front of him, wearing a silver-gray brocade robe, with a handsome face and an air of coldness, his mouth curled up in a charming smile, staring straight at him.

  He naturally guessed who this person was and continued, "The Emperor of Fengguo has arrived at the right time."

  "General Bai's words were not in vain when he arrived, if I had come a step later, I fear that this capital would have been trampled flat by General Bai." Feng Ao Tian said calmly.

  The cat lazily lay on Feng Ao Tian's back, obviously unwilling to talk much. As for the white maple in front of him, he just took a glance, and indeed had some charm, but compared to his master, it was somewhat inferior.

  "Feng Ao Tian smiled and said, 'At present, your emperor is a guest in my palace. General Bai has come from afar with Xuemo, I suppose you haven't seen your emperor yet?'"

  Bai Feng listened to Feng Ao Tian's words, her mind paused for a moment, the implication being that now, the Emperor was indeed in her hands. His eyes sank, and he continued, "If the Emperor of Feng Guo says so, then Bai Feng will wait here for the Emperor."

  Feng Ao Tian knew about Bai Feng's cautiousness, raised an eyebrow, and then turned around to head towards the capital.

  Bai Feng raised his hand and withdrew his troops, watching as Feng Ao Tian rode into the capital on horseback.

  Chu Ling Tian stood to one side, "What should we do now?"

  "Withdraw troops, set up camp and wait for the emperor's command." Bai Feng said coldly, then turned his horse around and led his men to retreat.

  Chu Lingtian raised his eyes and gazed at Xue Ke on the city wall, then retracted his gaze and turned to leave.

  Xue Ke watched as he gradually disappeared from view, then went down the city wall and saw that Feng Ao Tian had already rushed towards the imperial palace.

  Yi Yang remained guarding the city tower, not daring to relax.

  Xue Ke hastily flew towards the imperial palace.

  Outside the palace, thousands of corpses were already lying there, not yet processed. The Imperial Guard who was still guarding the palace gate had not yet seen clearly who came, a cold light flashed by, and Feng Ao Tian had already entered the Emperor's bedroom.

  She flew down and was immediately pulled by the cat gentleman's sleeve, and the two walked into the imperial bedroom.

  Lan Jing also heard the movement, turned his eyes, and saw Feng Ao Tian's face. His eyes flashed with excitement, and he stepped forward slowly, "Your subject greets Your Majesty!"

  Feng Ao Tian raised his hand and helped him up, "Master, you've been away for several days, how did you also become so thin?"

  Lan Yun bowed his head and said in a warm voice, "I'm perfectly fine."

  Feng Ao Tian listened to his words, smiled but didn't speak, tightly grasped his hand and gently pulled him into her arms, "Do you miss me?"

  "Hmm." Lan Jingxuan did not expect Feng Ao Tian to ask him such a straightforward question in front of everyone, his face flushing red as he replied softly.

  Feng Ao Tian looked at him with such an expression, his smile deepened, and then he raised his eyes to see Yi Mu standing respectfully on one side.

  She stepped forward, looking at him, "You've been working hard these days."

  Yi Mu bowed her head as before and replied in a soft voice, "This is what I should do."

  "Go back to rest." Feng Ao Tian raised his eyes and saw Gu Ye Feng sleeping soundly on the soft couch, "He's sleeping so sweetly."

  "For two days in a row without rest." Yi Mu replied truthfully.

  Feng Ao Tian slightly raised an eyebrow and continued, "Take him along for a rest as well."

  "Yes." Yi Mu responded, and immediately, Si Xi took the people to lift Gu Ye Feng from the soft couch and put him in a wheelchair, pushing him out of the imperial bedroom.

  The old cat saw Xuan Yuan Yi lying on the dragon bed in the inner hall at a glance, and Jiu Gong sat on one side.

  Feng Ao Tian turned his gaze, naturally saw it, and continued to say, "How is he?"

  "Having taken the Fragrant Soul Powder, you will sleep for a day." The wine steward stepped forward and bowed to Feng Ao Tian.

  "Let's take a break, Wine Uncle." Feng Ao Tian said with a faint smile as he looked at Wine Uncle.

  "The old slave bids farewell." The wine eunuch responded loudly and then stepped away from the imperial bedroom.

  The cat watched as the wine master left, his mouth twitching with a hint of disdain, "Still this kind of behavior."

  Feng Ao Tian looked at him with a good laugh, "You're still this kind of person?"

  Master Feng Ao Tian, you must be tired of me, a humble servant.

  Feng Ao Tian raised an eyebrow, "Don't you go take a bath and rest?"

  The cat said with a smile, "I'll go and attend to my master's bath first."

  Feng Ao Tian listened to his words and continued, "You can go wash up now, this place isn't just for you alone."

  Master, you're being unfair.

  Feng Ao Tian thought about this and said, "My heart was biased from the start anyway."

  The old cat twisted its body, turned around and left the imperial bedroom.

  Si Xi looked at Cat Gonggong always eating in front of Huang and couldn't help but sigh.

  Lan Jing waited until everyone had left before he finally looked up, gazing at her. She seemed to have lost a lot of weight in the past few days, although she still looked fine on the surface. However, the dark circles under her eyes made him feel heartbroken.

  "He said in a warm voice, 'Your Majesty, I'll attend to your washing and dressing.'"

  Feng Ao Tian turned his gaze, looking at him, "You actually don't know, you still have this kind of thought."

  Lan Yun was teased by Feng Ao Tian like this, and he hurriedly lowered his head, "If Your Majesty is not willing, then I..."

  Feng Ao Tian raised his hand and hooked up the green silk in front of his chest. "You haven't washed up yet, have you?"

  "Hmm." Lan Jing Shu nodded and said, he didn't have time to care about that.

  Feng Ao Tian led him by the hand into the inner hall, and took a glance at Xuan Yuan Yi wrapped in brocade quilts, as well as Feng Yin Qi beside him. Seeing the changes in his eyebrows and eyes, he continued, "This little guy seems to have grown up a bit."

  "Yes." Lan Jing Shu looked at Feng Ao Tian, "Although An Wang is in a coma, however, his appearance is changing."

  "These days, I haven't had time to take care of him, luckily there's you." Feng Ao Tian looked at Lan Yun Shu, stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms, "You, always like this."

  Lan Jing's book opened her arms, wrapped around her waist, leaned on his shoulder, listening to her words, he understood that everything he did was worth it, and he had a place in her heart, he would die without regret, content.

  Feng Ao Tian gently patted his back and softly said, "Don't you need to wash up?"

  Lan Yun only reluctantly left the brief warmth, he turned around, Si Xi had already prepared hot water, placed it on one side, he soaked the silk handkerchief, wrung it out, turned around and handed it to her.

  After washing his face with Feng Ao Tian Jing Mian, he changed into a bright yellow dragon robe and stepped out of the inner hall.

  Lan Xuan also followed her into the main hall after dressing properly.

  The old cat changed into a dark green official robe, holding a bowl of medicine, walked in and gazed at Feng Ao Tian with deep affection, "Master, you should drink it while it's hot."

  Feng Ao Tian raised his hand and took over the medicine soup, then drank it all in one gulp. Compared to the last time's medicine soup, this one was even more bitter by several degrees.

  The old cat hastily pinched a piece of candied fruit and put it into her mouth, "Master..."

  Feng Ao Tian put the candied fruit into his mouth, his thin lips touching the tip of his finger. The tom cat let out a low laugh and then withdrew his hand, putting the honey on his hand into his own mouth.

  Feng Ao Tian looked at him with a helpless sigh and turned his gaze to see that Lan Jun had already served the soup in front of her.

  She thought of Han Jin, who was far away in the Wind Clan. Now, she didn't know how he was doing. As she watched the days slowly pass by, if it weren't for her having too many things to attend to, just waiting like this would be like a year passing by in a single day.

  Master Feng, you should eat more to recover quickly.

  "Hmm." Feng Ao Tian collected his thoughts, lowered his head, and saw the food in his own bowl. He then picked up his jade chopsticks, took some dishes, and placed them separately in Lan Jing Shu's and Cat Gong Gong's bowls. "Eat more."

  "Yes." Lan Jing lowered her head and stopped talking, quietly having breakfast.

  The old cat smiled and picked up the phoenix proudly, placing it in his bowl of food. He savored it carefully, as if he was tasting the flavor of the phoenix itself, and even threw flirtatious glances at the phoenix.

  Xue Ke had been standing outside the main hall for a long time, gazing at the three people eating their early meal with relish. She couldn't help but sigh and say, "Master, you've forgotten about me."

  Feng Ao Tian did not lift his head, listening to Xue Ke's voice, "How is it? Don't want to come in?"

  Xue Ke received the order and hastily collected her smile, walking in with a pleasant gait. She made a curtsy and said, "Master, I'm also starving."

  "Didn't Chu Ling Tian feed you enough?" Feng Ao Tian raised an eyebrow, looking at her.

  Xue Ke hastily pulled down her face and said, "He, ah, is someone I hate to the bone." Then, she thick-skinned sat beside Cat Gonggong, completely not understanding the profound meaning in Feng Ao Tian's words.

  The old cat kicked Snowball with a disgusted face, "Is this your seat?"

  "Why can't I sit down if Master Cat can?" Xue Ke asked loudly, staring at Master Cat with dissatisfaction.

  "I'm already a master's person, of course I can sit." The cat said with a flirtatious glance at Feng Ao Tian.

  Xue Ke was just about to retort when she heard a commotion outside, and then saw a dark red figure descending elegantly, standing outside the Emperor's bedroom.
