If this operation goes smoothly, it will turn the tide against all odds.
If things don't go well, the whole family will perish!
Zhou Cheng looked up and saw the deep concern and solemnity in General Zhou's eyes. He immediately smiled confidently and said, "I naturally have a way to save my life. Don't worry, I will definitely take my second sister and mother out of the capital in twenty days or a month."
"At that time, we will kill gods and Buddhas alike who stand in our way!"
"I possess weapons capable of leveling mountains and moving seas, enough to intimidate thousands of troops. What can Emperor Yan do to me then?"
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have enough points right now, Zhou Cheng would have loved to rush into the Golden Phoenix Palace and kill that ungrateful dog emperor.
When I employ you, the Emperor's grace is boundless.
When I abandon you, I will have your entire family executed!
What a load of bullshit a monarch!
General Zhou already knew the explanation of the 'treasure basin' from his wife. The bombs and biscuits needed time to generate, and the longer the time, the more things would be generated. It was estimated that it would be enough to distort the Zhou family's situation in a month.
A month...not too long, not too short, but no matter what, we have to make it to the end.
"Good! It will take at least twenty days, or at most a month. I will wait for my son to return at the border!" General Zhou looked at Zhou Cheng with eyes full of satisfaction and pride, then reached out and patted Zhou Cheng's shoulder: "Cheng'er has grown up, really grown up."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Yan Kingdom is about to undergo a major upheaval."
Yes, it's time for a change.
It's time to change owners.
late at night.
Zhou Cheng tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. He would occasionally open his eyes to look out the window, and then ponder his next move.
After his father left the capital, Emperor Yan would surely send secret guards to monitor him at all times. He had to find a way to avoid Emperor Yan's eyes and ears and teach his mother and second sister to practice spear skills to protect themselves.
There are also border areas.
The Zhou family was summoned back to the capital three years ago. Presumably, Emperor Yan had been secretly plotting to discard them after they had served their purpose.
Since preparations were made in advance, things will definitely not go smoothly after Father returns to the border. Three years can indeed change a lot of things. Once any signs appear, Emperor Yan will definitely cut off the food supply.
It seems we need to speed things up and gather enough supplies before anything happens, so we can catch Emperor Yan off guard!
"Creak—"
The sound of the door being pushed open suddenly rang out.
Knock knock.
Zhou Cheng's heart skipped a beat. He peeked through a crack in his eye at the door and, sure enough, saw that slender and beautiful figure.
Dressed in black, Cheng Xianyi quietly closed the door and, by the moonlight, walked softly toward the bedside.
Only after seeing that Zhou Cheng's eyes were slightly closed, as if he were fast asleep, did she dare to resume breathing.
"Ah Cheng, I've come to see you."
“I came early tonight because I was worried you’d have another nightmare. I hope I’m not too late.” Cheng Xianyi gazed tenderly at Zhou Cheng’s face.
Her gaze traced his features closely, and that infatuation, obsession, and deep-seated love resurfaced once more.
She stretched out her slender, fair hand and gently grasped Zhou Cheng's knuckles.
"bite!"
"Your points have increased by one."
"Points increased by two, three, four..."
