"My sister treats Shiyao very well, Master. Don't worry, Shiyao isn't stupid!"

Su Cheng couldn't stop laughing; that was the little idiot's catchphrase!

Su Cheng simply stopped caring; that guy probably wouldn't hurt Li Shiyao.

Before long, Dongfang Jue gave some instructions to those behind him and then hurriedly came into the tent.

"Sister Dongfang~"

Upon seeing Dongfang Jue, Li Shiyao rushed over as if they were reunited after a long separation.

However, Dongfang Jue was covered in armor, so it wasn't very comfortable to hold him.

"Sister Dongfang, Shiyao wants to eat grilled fish!"

For some reason, whenever Dongfang Jue saw Shi Yao, it seemed that all his unpleasantness could be temporarily set aside.

"Okay, okay~ But why did Shiyao come along too? This isn't a fun place."

"Shiyao misses her older sister~"

For some reason, Dongfang Jue felt that with Li Shiyao around, she couldn't find the time to talk to Sect Leader Su.

Fortunately, Su Cheng interrupted the two, saying that it was more important to talk about business.

Originally, Su Cheng intended to handle Lihe Pass personally, but Xu Zhanfeng wrote that the two grandmothers had gone to the Northern Region, so he had no choice but to go and appease the two disciples first to prevent them from causing trouble.

Fortunately, Dongfang Jue was no pushover, and the city's garrison commander was also pragmatic. By the time Su Cheng returned, Dongfang Jue was already on his way back.

Such a fierce and ruthless army, even if it puts up a stubborn resistance, will be utterly meaningless.

"Miss Dongfang, now that the situation is settled, what are your intentions?"

Su Cheng glanced at the sand table briefly and then asked a question.

However, in Dongfang Jue's eyes, this was like taking an exam, and he was beginning to answer the questions.

"Jue'er still hopes to avoid meaningless killings and instead surround the enemy without attacking. What does Sect Leader Su think?"
