"Alright!" Yin Rong clasped his hands in a fist salute, his hawk-like gaze fixed on the area below the city wall. "Young Master, rest assured, I will go now."

The city gates were open, and Yun Qing saw Yin Rong leading the Li family army out. Because the distance was relatively far, she chose a safe place to watch the battle.

They were just scattered remnants who had fled here in a panic, hoping to gamble on a defensive oversight. However, they did not expect that there were still so many people left in the city. Seeing the army rushing towards them, they fled in a panic.

On the city wall, Yun Qing suddenly stood up: "Wait! Why are there more people coming from behind?"

Because of the great distance, Yun Qing couldn't see clearly what was happening in the distance. For the first time, she realized how necessary the invention of the telescope was.

"Miss, please don't rush, let's take another look."

Qinglan was startled by Yunqing's actions, and while comforting her, she quickly looked up.

Yun Qing's gaze calmed down: "Have your men prepare gunpowder and strengthen defenses everywhere."

If any escapees do manage to get to their side, they will defend against them no matter what.

Qingque: "I'll go right away."

Qingque left quickly, while Yunqing stared intently at the battlefield. She saw the Rouran people scattering in all directions. Yinrong also noticed the unusual situation and seemed to be hesitating whether to give chase or not. However, people from a distance quickly rushed forward and intercepted those Rouran people who wanted to continue their escape.

As they drew closer, the fluttering military flag finally came into view, and Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the familiar pattern on it.

It is the military flag of Da Xi.

Almost instinctively, she began searching through the chaotic battlefield.

With the two forces attacking from both sides, the already scattered Rouran army was routed even more. Warhorses neighed, sand and gravel flew, and dust filled the sky. The battle was over in no time.

From afar, one could see someone riding a horse galloping towards them, finally coming to a slow stop beneath the city wall.

He seemed to sense something and looked up. His face was covered in dust and blood, but it did not diminish the emperor's majesty in the slightest. His features were clear and bright, and he was dignified and dazzling.

Xie Rang's lips moved slightly.

Yun Qing recognized that he was saying—

"I'm back."
