"Avenge me! If I die here today, let... let... my mother avenge me!!"
Xiao Long stared at him with his demonic eyes, as if he wouldn't breathe his last without a promise.
Archie was shivering, his body ice-cold, his pupils dilated. "Your Highness—Your Highness—"
Promise me!
"Yes, sir!" Bang! Archie slammed his head against the gravel, his mind reeling.
He seemed to already see the impending storm and upheaval in the Northern Barbarian lands.
He was terrified and tears streamed down his face.
"Okay...please...archi..." The voice faded away.
Archie trembled with fear, lying there, slowly raising his eyes, "Your Highness!!!"
"Screech!" The White Eagle King's mournful cry echoed through the mountains and forests.
The four soldiers' knees buckled and they knelt down. Having heard the prince's last words in their entirety, they trembled as well.
Archie knelt there blankly, his fingertips trembling as he checked for breath, before finally collapsing to his knees, his face filled with bewilderment and grief.

He then took off his outer robe to cover the prince, and ordered four people to carry rubble to block the cave entrance, and then cover it with trees.

Poor Archie, he was completely fooled!
It wasn't exactly a lie, after all, it was our young prince who valued him, and that tyrant Xiao Long wouldn't have taken a liking to an ordinary old soldier like him.
[Wow, wow, I can't wait for what happens next! Our goddess's acting is so good, I'll eat my hat if the Northern Barbarians don't go into chaos!]
Xiao Zhixing pushed aside the rubble, crawled out of the cave, and took off his blood-stained clothes to return to normal.
She also looked forward to the grand performance by the Northern Barbarians, so that her hard work in performing would not have been in vain.
She glanced in the direction Archie had left and ran towards Black Sheep Village.
