Nearly at once, soldiers standing aside laughed and booed. They were all waiting to see General Leng, who looked so weak compared to Tuoba Wuyu, to make a fool of himself. They hadn't seen him fought since he was appointed to be the General. Besides, Leng Changxi looked fairly handsome and weak. His face was rather pale, as if he hadn't exposed himself to the sunlight for long, so soldiers thought he was weak.
Tuoba Wuyu was very aggressive, but Leng Changxi stood still. Leng Wu became worried and then was comforted by what Qin Yunuan said. "Don't worry. Changxi can easily defeat such a strong man now." Qin Yunuan briefly explained to Leng Wu that Leng Changxi's Qigong of Tongming Gate had been activated when they were in the Yeren Valley. Leng Wu was surprised. There should be such a kind of powerful Qigong. No wonder he felt Leng Changxi had totally different genuine energy now.
Two axes Tuoba Wuyu used were like two scary and overwhelming tigers. But Len
Maner hadn't figured out what Yuanyang and Leng Shuang meant, but at this time, a figure already jumped lightly on the tent. That swift man was one of the top martial artists. He quickly took out a pen-thick bamboo tube in which there was a poisoned arrow. Right when he gently gashed the tent and was ready to shoot the arrow, he felt a cold dagger was pointed at his throat."Sir, I'm afraid it's impolite for you to jump on others' tent at late night." Leng Shuang smiled and looked at the assassin who paused because of her appearance. Yuanyang sent a signal, and at once, Leng Wu led soldiers in black armor who ambushed to capture three other assassins who were on the lookout.Leng Changxi pulled the curtain back and walked out, followed by Qin Yunuan. Seeing four people who were tied up, Leng Changxi looked back at Qin Yunuan and nodded to her, "You were right. It seems that some other people also want to kill us besides them.""Them" referred t
Sima Ray confidently spoke out Leng Changxi's "crimes", but both Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan knew clearly that he was defaming Leng Changxi. This was his dirty trick. Wanyan Su already colluded with him. By doing so, he could also help Wanyan Su defeat Wanyan Ba and control North Di."His Majesty won't believe in you." Leng Changxi tilted his head a bit. "Although all people in Qi think His Majesty appoints you to be the Guardian of Qi, we both know it's not true. His Majesty is still conscious, but you have put him under house arrest.""So what?" Sima Ray kept his chin up. Having held great power for some time, he became more arrogant. "In Qi, you are indeed a traitor all people hate. And you can't go back to North Di, either. The Grand Khan is not well, and Wanyan Su runs the country now. As far as I know, you two have already turned against each other in the Yeren valley,"Leng Changxi turned around and sneered, "Your Royal Highness, you're
In such a wild forest, there suddenly appeared a troop of cavalries, who were marching in perfect order and at the same pace. It could be seen that they had been under extremely strict training. Perhaps they had no good intention at all.Soon Leng Wu came and led three horses from the other side and saw the dust from afar.This might be the preparation arranged by Sima Ray. It seemed that he had made up his mind not to let the three people return to the camp. However, if the ambush was so obvious, there must be something wrong with it.Suddenly Leng Changxi seemed to see something with his sharp, cold eyes. He let go of Qin Yunuan's hands, stepped on the branch with the silver spear made of black iron on his back in the direction of the cavalry, as fast as thunder and lightning.Qin Yunuan thought that Leng Changxi was going to fight alone, but he kept the long spear on his back and stepped forward unarmed. The dust raised by caval
When Tuoba Wuyu finished his words, other soldiers showed extreme excitement. Although Qin Yunuan was also good-looking, she was a general's wife. They could never dream about her. But this woman was even more charming than Qin Yunuan.Leng Changxi glanced at the poor little woman before him coldly and nodded, "Now that General Tuoba suggests that we should take her on the way, General Tuoba, she is given to you to care for. I won't care about her."Tuoba Wuyu kept nodding and thanking. It was lucky for him to go with such a beauty.In the evening, the woman called Shuihan was arranged carefully by Tuoba Wuyu in a relatively clean camp. During the time, there were lots of soldiers visiting the woman to send her bedding and incense burners. The camp of Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi was not far from the woman's, so Qin Yunuan was very clear about the movements over there.Beside Qin Yunuan, there was Leng Shuang, who lowered her head t
The Qilian Mountains were situated in the west south of Qi. Luguan guarded the key pass to Qi in the south of the Qilian Mountains. Leng Changxi heard about guardians who guarded Luguan had been transferred several months ago. They were young but able."Miraculous traps?" Tuoba Wuyu looked down upon on mysterious tricks. Ancestors and gods were what West Xia people believed. Therefore, they considered artificial tricks were ineffective. "They are only diagrams. General Leng, please wait. Let me ask my fellows to smash them into pieces."Leng Changxi's army stopped in front of a narrow valley. It was of a high possibility that they fell into an ambush in such a pocket-like valley. Once they came in, they might not get out that easy. Leng Changxi led his army at the mouth of the valley. He observed the unknown environment before them for a while but couldn't find any clues. The deadlock was broken when a scout brought back a strange pattern.The
How bold Shuihan was! Hadn't until Qin Yunuan said anything, a teacup fell to the ground with a clear clatter. Maner and Ting Xue put aside the curtain and hurried out but see no one. They were wondering who the person was running that fast."It must be Leng Shuang." Qin Yunuan stood outside the curtain. Leng Shuang must have been trembling under such snowy cold weather. But it had no comparison with her disappointment. Ice-cold, ruthless Heiying opened her locked heart. Her heart was also smashed into pieces because of him."Let me replace Shuihan to look after Hei Ying." Maner volunteered. She didn't want Leng Shuang to suffer from heartbreak anymore. Shuihan pretended to be weak and soft. When Maner and Ting Xue happened to figure out she was feeding the medicine for Heiying mouth to mouth, Shuihan shyly crouched her neck like she was the poor victim. She contended that it was the convention to serve a patient in her hometown. This was the first time Shu
The mist of dawn awoke the two hundred thousand soldiers in black armor. Leng Changxi got up early. Qin Yunuan fastened the armor for him carefully. The silver helmet and the incomparably hard chest protector made Leng Changxi look more mettlesome. His eyes were piercing, but there were apparent worries in them.The army came to the gate of the valley smoothly. They could see nothing on the opposite side of the slot canyon. Leng Changxi sat on the large horse as the head of the army. Heiying's arm was still tied with a bandage which was stained with blood. The bleeding had not stopped completely yet. Qin Yunuan did not ride a horse with Leng Changxi this time but sat on a carriage covered by a black curtain behind. Maner and Ting Xue stayed at the base camp as doctors, while Shuihan, the fragile lady, insisted on following them, who then guarded the carriage with Qin Yunuan."I wonder whether brother Heiying's wound has got better. It was still terrible yes
In the evening, the army had already marched towards the valley under the order of Leng Changxi in accordance with the established plan. They didn't dare to move forward rashly towards the pocket-shaped valley. Leng Changxi had ordered two teams of cavalry and archers to take a shortcut to both sides of the valley in the morning. The horses they rode were not ordinary horses that were only good at running, but pony horses which were commonly used for transporting tea in the southwest region. And these horses were good at climbing and walking on steep mountain roads.Leng Changxi rode a horse in front, and behind him was the Leng Army who had fought side by side with him for countless times. Qin Yunuan got out of the carriage and rode on a gentle maroon mare. The black cloak covered her hair which was fluttering in the wind, and her fair face stood out among the loess and brownstones.Suddenly, there was a gust of wind, and there seemed to be a strong burst
Fortunately, Sun Miaoyang was in Prince Ning's Mansion. Unfortunately, Su Chenghai, the disciple of Doctor Sun, was suffering from poisoning at the same time. So when all the people in the Royal City and all the civilians of Qi were cheering for eradicating the evil, there were two dying people in Prince Ning's Mansion.The emperor of Qi re-ascended the throne with few concubines and descendants, so naturally, he valued Leng Changxi, his nephew, so much. He sent him countless precious tonics, and he even accompanied the Queen Mother to visit Leng Changxi after a busy day of political affairs many times. But it was a pity that Leng Changxi still didn't get any better. Qin Yunuan took care of him day and night, losing so much weight.At that time, Leng Changxi and Shi Ruisheng seemed to be vying with each other. There was only one blade of life-saving grass, but there were two people who needed it. Logically speaking, Sun Miaoyang should have given the life-s
All the people fixed their eyes on this little kid who seemed to be only three years old. The child looked extremely beautiful with big watery eyes and fair skin. He was so cute.Followed by the little child was a middle-aged man who looked strong and vigorous but was plainly dressed. People with good ears could still remember that the middle-aged man just called the little child young master. It seemed that the child should be from some noble family.Since his story was interrupted by such a little kid, the storyteller was so angry. He started narrating this story a long time ago, and everyone loved the story very much. But at this time, he was provoked by a little kid!"You kid, you know what? You weren't even born when the Royal City was chaotic.""Anyway, I know that General Leng and his wife are not dead." The kid looked unconvinced with a pout, refuting the storyteller."Hey, you kid. Do you know how many tons of
The burning of the city was the cruelest. In addition, it was the Royal City with a prosperous business and a large population. If Sima Ray was determined to have a life-or-death struggle, the people of Qi would suffer.The emperor of Qi looked at his unfilial son in front of him, feeling so furious. He pointed at Leng Changxi and said, "Get me the head of my rebellious son. I will spill his blood in front of the ancestor temple. I'll let all the ancestors see that there is such a rebel in our Sima Family."Sima Ray raised his head and his eyebrows slightly, looking so indifferent. It seemed that a bad reputation didn't matter to him at all, "I don't care at all. Besides, you never regarded me as a member of the Sima Family when I was growing up, right? You've always been ashamed of my mother. You felt it a shame to rape a maid and make her pregnant when you were young, so you never treated me kindly. I am just dispensable to you.""What nonsen
With his hands tied up behind his back, Leng Changxi remained so calm that people couldn't help bearing scruples. He looked up at Sima Ray and said, "You can kill your friends, brothers and soldiers at will. But I can't. I care for my men."When Sima Ray didn't figure out what he meant, Shi Ruisheng suddenly took out a sword that was tied to his waist. He wielded the sword to cut off the rope that tied Leng Changxi, and the latter was free at once."General, take it." Leng Changxi didn't take any weapon with him. And right because of this, Sima Ray wasn't fully on the alert. But at this time, Zhuge Qingtian shouted and directly threw the black-iron spear at him. Zhuge Qingtian had very strong arms so that the spear directly stabbed into the battlement after flying several hundred meters."Shi Ruisheng, how dare you disobey me?" Sima Ray always thought Shi Ruisheng was his loyal pawn. But unexpectedly, he should betray him at this crucial time.
Sima Ray had occupied Yu Haitang's body at the moment. However, Yu Haitang's appearance began to change because Sima Ray used the body to practice martial arts day and night. After a long time, he looked no different from Sima Ray's original appearance at a glance.Seeing Yu Haitang's shocking change, Qin Yunuan thought that the people around Yu Haitang might have noticed something. However, they all agreed to say nothing. To keep silent was the key to survive beside Sima Ray.Now Marshal Yu had already been a young man who looked exactly like Sima Ray without the name of Prince Ray."Leng Changxi, there are smoke bombs in four colors in my hands, red, yellow, blue, and green. They are responding to the codes of the people watching bonfires in the four corners of the Royal City respectively. Red is the east. Yellow is the west. Blue is the south. Green is the north. As soon as I let go of the smoke bombs, someone over there will immediately lea
"You want evidence?" Qin Yunuan raised her tone. She was considered a fool. Qin Yunuan suddenly reached out to grab Shi Ruisheng's collar. She was ready to see what's inside it."What are you doing?" Shi Ruisheng's face turned red. He covered his clothes with mild strength."What are you thinking?" Qin Yunuan stared at Shi Ruisheng. She grabbed Shi Ruisheng's collar, revealing three moles, which had a triangle shape besides his collarbone. "Yes, I remember, the elder male cousin Su has it. You were him, this is right, but," Qin Yunuan looked at Shi Ruisheng, and went up to drag his sleeve."Yunuan, what the hell are you doing?"Shi Ruisheng was shy about Qin Yunuan's bold behavior. Besides, he treated her well all these years."See," Qin Yunuan pointed at the thin black line on Shi Ruisheng's arm, "This is the poison I used to suffer. The origin of it was the Tamuer Village and the white poplar forest outside it, which
"You…" Qin Yunuan slightly opened her mouth, looking at Shi Ruisheng, who had a completely different appearance from Leng Changxi. She remembered that her cousin Su Chenghai did look familiar with Leng Changxi. However, Shi Ruisheng's temperament was quite another. The sense of Confucian scholar hid behind his expressions.Shi Ruisheng's words were doting. He seemed to learn from Leng Changxi to act in a mild and indifferent way."What's wrong? When you were a little girl, you wouldn't be like that. You used to talk a lot, but now…mature a little more, words little less." Shi Ruisheng said it naturally with the feeling of a brother. Qin Yunuan disdained him."That's because I have nothing to say to you now." She finished her words and left the tent. Shi Ruisheng wanted to chase her but was stopped by Leng Changxi, "Just let her go. Calm down, and she will be fine."Qin Yunuan kept walking. Along the way, she couldn't help but look
Qin Yunuan read the two documents in her hands. After comparing back and forth, she suddenly smiled and looked at Leng Changxi. It seemed that the two people could understand each other without speaking.In the morning half a month later, the mist dissipated gradually. The profile of the city wall, which was getting clearer little by little from afar, was outlined by the morning sun with a golden rim. The Royal City in the distance was the largest power center of Qi. Gold worshippers and desperate gamblers gathered here, crowding in the tiny space and thinking that they could gain fame and fortune. However, they all became the playthings of power."The world is supposed to be governed by the strong authority," a man in silver armor stood in the golden morning light on a high mountain from afar. The black iron spear in his hand glowed with cold murderous intent. The solemn atmosphere made people breathe cautiously."General Leng, it is me who he
Seeing that Heiying's face gradually become pale, showing a kind of dying helplessness, Qin Yunuan opened his eyelid and checked carefully. Leng Shuang seemed to be a little flustered."Madam, I..." Leng Shuang took a step closer."It's none of your business," Qin Yunuan turned her face to comfort Leng Shuang, "Besides, even if you don't kill him, Sima Ray will kill him. Even if he isn't killed by Sima Ray, he will be punished by me. How can he leave safe and sound after bullying my people?"Leng Changxi glanced at Heiying and ordered his servant, "Take him back." After saying this, he stretched his hand and pulled Qin Yunuan directly onto the horse. When he passed Tuoba Wuyu, he nodded with concern, "Thank you for your hard work."Qin Yunuan sat behind Leng Changxi. Putting her arms around the edge of Leng Changxi's armor, she lowered her head slightly, "It's so surprising that...""Nothing is surprising," Leng Changx
