Thinking of the hundreds of thousands of Great Xia soldiers he had personally ordered to be killed, thinking of Xiao Qirui’s death, the helplessness he felt when his family was raided swept through his every nerve again.
He couldn’t save anyone. Nothing could be changed.
Shen Yijia felt a lump in her throat. “Who said that? My husband is the best.”
“Only a silly girl like you would say that.” Song Jingchen smiled. Sensing something, his pupils constricted. He suddenly hugged Shen Yijia and changed directions with her.
The rapidly approaching hidden weapons quickly enlarged in Shen Yijia’s eyes.
Ding! An arrow nailed the hidden weapon less than a square inch away from Song Jingchen’s back.
Right on the heels of that, the roar of horses galloping came from the right rear of the Wu Kingdom’s army. The ground seemed to be trembling.
Accompanied by the sound of hooves was the deep sound of a horn and the sound of war drums.
Dong! Dong! Dong! With the momentum of mountains and rivers, it resounded throuqh the world, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.
The hearts of the Great Xia soldiers turned cold. Could it be another army of the Wu Kingdom coming from that direction?
Yan Guangmao leaned against a man in black. The hidden weapon that had ambushed Shen Yijia just now was shot by the man in black. Yan Guangmao turned around with difficulty and looked in the direction of the night. He had an ominous feeling.
“Report! the Xuanyuan army is here!” A scout ran over in a panic.
“Don’t shake the morale of the army!” Yan Guangmao roared with bloodshot eyes. As soon as he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
How was that possible?
A few days ago, he had received a letter from Lin’an City. The letter said that they wanted to capture Xuanyuan Ce alive. The army of the Xuanyuan Kingdom would not even have time to react, so how could they come here?
“It’s really the Xuanyuan Flag. The person leading the army is a white-haired man. ”
Yan Guangmao’s pupils shrank.
With a head full of white hair, who else could it be other than Xuanyuan Ce? Could it be that Lin’an City had fallen?
At some point, dawn slowly rose in the sky. Stepping on that light, tens of thousands of cavalry galloped over. Every one of them was wearing cold silver armor, and they were like sharp arrows that could split the sky and earth. They rolled towards Nanling Pass with an overwhelming aura.
“It’s the beautiful uncle. Hubby, the beautiful uncle is here.” This was the first time Shen Yijia found Xuanyuan Ce so pleasing to the eye.
Yan Guangmao’s pupils constricted. He gritted his teeth and instructed, “Capture her.”
He was referring to Shen Yijia.
“Bullsh*t.” Shen Yijia shielded Song Jingchen behind her and grabbed the long whip to whip the ground. With a bang, dust flew up. The soldiers who wanted to approach were so frightened that they stopped in their tracks.
However, the ordinary soldiers were frightened. The men in black who were originally fighting You Yi changed their direction, leaving only two people to continue holding You Yi back. The others attacked her together.
Shen Yijia was about to go up to them when five men in black with silver masks suddenly appeared in front of her.
This was…
After interacting with You Yi for a long time, she naturally recognized the five of them at a glance.
However, didn’t Xuanyuan Ce only have three Demon Guards? You Yi was following him, and he had sent You Er to her mother’s side. Where did these four extra guards come from?
How could Shen Yijia know that Xuanyuan Qi was worried about Xuanyuan Ce and sent four of his seven Demon Guards to protect him?
“Let’s see who dares to touch my daughter!” Xuanyuan Ce roared domineeringly.
“Anyone who touches the princess will die!”
“Anyone who touches the princess will die!”
The soldiers of the Xuanyuan Kingdom roared in unison, as if they had practiced it countless times in advance.
Great Xia’s soldiers thought to themselves, “What? Are those our reinforcements?”
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “This is so impressive. I suddenly feel that it’s not a bad idea to be a princess.”
With the Demon Guards around, no one could get close to Shen Yijia, let alone capture her.
The morale of the Wu Kingdom’s soldiers, who were fighting the soldiers of Great Xia in the city, had also plummeted because of the arrival of the Xuanyuan Kingdom’s army.
Yan Guangmao was already seriously injured and was forcing himself to hold on. Seeing this, he was so angry that he vomited blood a few times. “Master, we’ll escort you away first,” the man in black asked for instructions. Yan Guangmao closed his eyes. “Retreat.”
As soon as the retreat signal was issued, the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom retreated from the left like a tide.
However, how could Xuanyuan Ce let them leave so easily? He took the lead and chased after them with the army.
The Great Xia soldiers were not to be outdone and pursued them as well.
Less than half of the nearly 400,000 troops of the Wu Kingdom that attacked the city safely retreated in the end.
The Wu Kingdom was doomed.
Now, what they had to think about was no longer how to break through the Nanling Pass, but how to withstand the anger of Great Xia and the Xuanyuan Kingdom and protect their territory.
Unfortunately, Yan Guangmao was still taken away by a group of people, leaving Si Yun, who was beaten to death by Shen Yijia.
Actually, this was normal. The people of the Valley of Heavenly Secrets thought highly of themselves and thought that they were superior to others in every aspect.
However, the soldiers of the Wu Kingdom only called them high priests out of respect for their king. Who would really take them seriously?
Xuanyuan Ce rode his horse back and dismounted. He walked to Shen Yijia’s side and smiled. “Daughter, am I powerful?”
As he spoke, he glanced smugly at Song Jingchen, who was leaning against Shen Yijia.
Hmph, he still had to rely on his daughter to protect her. What a piece of trash!
Shen Yijia subconsciously wanted to retort, but when she saw something, her heart skipped a beat.
Song Jingchen also looked in that direction.
Xuanyuan Ce looked over suspiciously and saw a team of blood-covered soldiers slowly walking towards them on the battlefield filled with corpses.
The eyes of the soldier walking at the front were red, and he was carrying a man who had been shot several times.
“Young Master, did you see that? We won, ” Xiao Li muttered.
He recalled what the young man had said to him with a smile that day. “Xiao Li, perhaps we can really go back alive.”
Xiao Li could no longer control himself. He fell to his knees and roared mournfully.
“Young Master, I’ll bring you home!”
Shen Yijia’s eyes turned red as she threw herself into Song Jingchen’s arms and cried silently..
