After saying that, he got up and left...
Huang Zhong, lying on the ground, suddenly stiffened, and thought once again of the problem he had deliberately ignored!
His wife is Qin Qing's goddaughter, and they are mother and daughter who have saved each other's lives!
The issue he had been deliberately avoiding was now being directly brought up by Wang Yan, forcing him to confront it. How was he going to explain this to Shaoyao once he returned?!
Deputy General Zhang stood there watching Wang Yan's departing figure, feeling utterly powerless. He could only console himself that things would probably get better in time.
On the other side, Qin Qing, who had been asleep for an unknown amount of time, finally opened her eyes. After a moment of confusion, she immediately looked up warily. After looking at the familiar scene and objects around her, she sat down in surprise.
Is this a spatial dimension? That makes sense! Just as she felt utterly powerless, realizing she had been poisoned and was completely unable to resist, she recklessly entered the dimension. She wondered if those people who witnessed this scene were terrified and questioned their very existence…
Thinking of this, she turned her head and subconsciously placed her hand on her shoulder, wanting to check the wound there, however…
No! Nothing at all. Her smooth skin was as white as ever, without a single wound or scar, except for a tear in her clothes.
Qin Qing finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. After being stabbed by that woman, she thought she was going to die, but she didn't expect that her current constitution could not only heal wounds quickly but also resist toxins! She didn't have any signs of poisoning at all!
I don't know whether to be happy or sad.
She then changed her clothes and left the space…
In the quiet alley, a thin current of electricity flashed across the scene, followed by the appearance of a woman dressed in a dark blue outfit. Her long black hair was all tied back, with two slightly curled strands of hair fluttering in the wind, giving her a languid and beautiful aura.
Her fair skin was clear and clean without any makeup, and she was elegant and dignified without any ornaments, making her a sight to behold.
However, this beautiful scene went unappreciated…
After landing, Qin Qing quickly pressed himself against the wall, his ears twitching slightly. He soon overheard the conversation of a group of soldiers passing by outside the alley.
"Hey bro, what are we having for lunch? I'm starving!"
"How would I know? Recently, food has become increasingly scarce, His Highness the Prince has refused to send troops to attack other cities, and the King is sending less and less food!"
"Sigh... We used to be able to rob the people in Liuyun City of their food supplies, but now we're just sitting here and eating our meager reserves. We don't know when this will end."
Listening to their complaints, Qin Qing pursed her lips, her face expressionless…
However, at that moment, a deep conch shell and horn sound suddenly came from afar. The four soldiers by the alley changed their expressions upon hearing the sound, then quickly stood up and ran straight in one direction.
Although Qin Qing was somewhat confused, she roughly knew that this was probably the sound of enemy troops gathering. But why was it happening so early in the morning? Could it be…
Thinking of a possibility, she prepared to follow and see, but just then she saw someone turn around, so she quickly hid back. Taking down four of them was no problem, but if she made a sound and attracted more people, it would be a loss!
The man seemed to have run back to retrieve something, completely ignoring the figures in the alley. He had just picked up his belongings and was about to leave when he was knocked unconscious with a single chop to the neck.
Qin Qing quickly pulled him into the alley, and then, without batting an eye, stripped the soldier off his clothes. The inner lining emitted a strong stench that almost made her vomit. In the end, she could only barely put on his outer cloth armor, and threw the inner lining directly onto the roof.
Soon, a slightly shorter soldier caught up with the group, but no one noticed anything amiss…
Meanwhile, at the front lines... In the morning, Wang Yan led hundreds of thousands of soldiers to charge aggressively into the enemy's rear, which quickly attracted the enemy's attention. The two sides clashed swiftly, and in an instant, densely packed soldiers rushed in, turning the battlefield into chaos!
An hour later, Qin Qing's army, along with Prince Kolo, finally arrived at their destination. The battle had just ended, and the ground was littered with corpses.
It's unclear what their purpose was; they arrived with overwhelming killing intent and imposing momentum, but retreated decisively without lingering...
"Soldiers! Whoever can take Wang Yan's head, I promise you treasures, beautiful women, and promotions!"
A loud shout startled Qin Qing from her thoughts. She looked up at Prince Chloe, who was standing on the high platform in the distance, his face full of excitement, as if he had already taken Wang Yan's head.
She simply curled her lip in disdain and then lowered her head.
After a long string of empty encouragement, the soldiers rested on the spot, awaiting the start of the next battle.
Qin Qing watched Prince Chloe turn and leave, then thought for a moment and disappeared into the crowd as well.
Soon, she followed Prince Chloe to a tent and found that there was no one guarding it. So she held her breath and quietly approached.
"Your Highness, the enemy's attack today is unusual; there must be a trap involved. Please do not act rashly!"
Was it her? The woman in black that day? The female assassin who stabbed Qin Qing, forcing her to reveal her location…
Prince Chloe chuckled upon hearing this, then walked over and wrapped his arm around the woman's slender waist in a gesture that was undeniably suggestive. The woman did not resist, allowing Prince Chloe to remove the black veil from her face with a smile.
Soon, the woman's appearance came into clear view: a very delicate doll-like face, with big eyes that looked very innocent and pure, while her murderous aura was particularly inconsistent with that face!
"What does Hua Niang think I should do? Wang Yan's actions are merely an attempt to provoke me, hoping to throw me off balance and allow him to crush me in one fell swoop. After all, Liuyun City is now in my hands. If he launches a full-scale attack, I still have a place to defend! Besides, my army outnumbers them..."
His words were filled with disdain and disgust, clearly showing that he was extremely annoyed with Wang Yan!
The woman in black, named Hua Niang, raised her head, her small body nestled in Prince Chloe's arms, and hesitated.
"His Highness said that whoever brings Wang Yan's head will be promoted and ennobled! Is that true?"
Prince Chloe was taken aback. He looked down into her earnest eyes, a strange light flashing in his mind, before nodding.
"Of course! Regardless of gender, as long as I obtain Wang Yan's head, this prince will never go back on his word!"
The phrase "regardless of gender" was specifically addressed to the flower maid!
Sure enough, when Hua Niang heard this, her eyes lit up as if she had found a solution, and a happy smile quickly appeared on her face.
