Qin Qianluo parted her lips slightly and continued to speak softly: "Judging from the time, Father, Mother and the Emperor Emeritus will probably arrive tomorrow."
I hope my elder brother and sister will make the trip to meet me on the official road.
At this point, her expression suddenly turned serious, and her eyes revealed deep worry.
It was as if a scene of endless war, smoke and fire, and countless hidden dangers and traps had already appeared before my eyes.
She frowned slightly, a trace of worry between her brows, and said in a solemn and serious tone, "The situation in these three beacon fire areas is treacherous, and I fear they may have stumbled into a dangerous place."
If they could be personally guided by their elder siblings along a secret path, they could avoid the enemy's notice and ensure everyone's safety.
Upon hearing their younger sister's detailed explanation of the arrangements, Qin Jiyuan and Qin Qianyu's eyes met instantly, and in that split second, they understood each other perfectly.
Immediately, a resolute look appeared in their eyes, and they nodded heavily, agreeing to the matter without hesitation and with an unquestionable attitude.
Seeing that her older brother and sister had agreed, Qin Qianluo's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
Yet, deep within those eyes, a lingering melancholy remained, like a persistent gloom.
She parted her lips slightly, revealing her pearly teeth, and although she tried her best to keep her voice steady, she could not hide the solemnity and determination in it.
Like the sound of a morning bell and evening drum, she continued to tell her story: "My uncle's family has not yet returned home, and I am deeply troubled."
At the third quarter of the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), when the moon hangs high in the sky and its clear light shines everywhere, I will go with Yao Guang to the border city tower of the Kingdom of Jizi.
At that time, I hope that my elder brother and sister will each lead their guards to provide covert support. May the bright moonlight help us welcome back the remains of our beloved family and comfort their spirits in the afterlife.
Upon hearing his younger sister's words, Qin Jiyuan felt a sudden tightness in his heart, as if he were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand.
He couldn't help but frown slightly, his thick eyebrows instantly twisting together like a tightly wound rope.
His eyes were filled with worry and disapproval, like the gloomy sky before a storm.
He subconsciously took a small step forward, a step that was both urgent and resolute.
It was as if he wanted to use his own body to build an indestructible barrier for his younger sister, shielding her from all impending dangers.
His tone conveyed a brother's concern and tenderness for his sister, like a gentle, warm current, yet it also carried an undeniable firmness; the voice seemed to burst forth from the deepest part of his heart.
He said, "The night is dark and the wind is high, and the journey is fraught with danger. How can I bear to let my little sister take such a risk? This matter of retrieving the remains from the city tower should be carried out by your brother under the cover of night."
The second and youngest sisters can lead their guards to provide support from the outside, forming a network of interconnected forces.
In this way, the remains of our beloved family can be preserved intact, and we will not fail in our responsibility as the eldest brother to protect them. I hope my two younger sisters will grant this wish of yours.
Qin Qianluo slowly raised her eyes, her gentle gaze meeting her brother's disapproving look.
The deep concern and heavy worry surging in her brother's eyes were like a warm spring tide, quietly seeping into her heart.
Instantly, her eyes welled up with ripples of emotion and warmth.
Her lips curved slightly upward, revealing a gentle smile as beautiful as a flower blooming in early spring, a smile brimming with gratitude for her brother's love and care.
Her voice was gentle yet firm, like a spring breeze brushing against the tips of willow branches by her ear.
With a unique and comforting power: "I deeply appreciate my brother's earnest protection."
Yao Guang's swordsmanship is divine; a single blade can cleave the moon. Qian Chao and the others are also well-versed in stealth, and are all among the most skilled in the world.
This time, my younger sister led everyone along, much like plum blossoms reflected in snow, swords concealing their sharpness, their advances and retreats all governed by strategy.
She paused slightly, gently smoothing a strand of hair at her temple with her slender hand, her movements elegant and composed, her expression calm and confident.
He naturally exudes a powerful aura that commands genuine respect.
She took a deep breath and continued speaking in a gentle, unwavering tone: "Brother, there is no need to worry."
Although my younger sister is not a seasoned warrior on the battlefield, she has mastered many skills and will surely be able to safely welcome back the spirits of my uncle's family.
Qin Jiyuan's gaze was fixed on his younger sister, his eyes filled with a mix of deep brotherly care, endless worry, and a hint of helplessness in the face of her unwavering determination.
The younger sister's expression was like an inextinguishable torch in the cold night, burning with unwavering faith, making him clearly realize that her heart was as firm as steel.
He weighed the pros and cons repeatedly in his heart, carefully pondering what his younger sister had just said, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable she seemed.
Yao Guang's swordsmanship was unparalleled. Each time her sword blossoms bloomed, it was as if stars were twinkling in the night sky, dazzling yet deadly.
In a life-or-death situation, he was determined to protect his younger sister.
The space that the younger sister possesses is like an excellent sanctuary.
It contains countless amazing conveniences and mysteries, like an inexhaustible treasure, adding many safeguards to the operation.
Considering all these factors, it seems that my younger sister's decision to go on this mission is indeed more suitable than me personally taking risks, and the chances of success are also greater.
A wave of helplessness washed over him, and he let out a heavy sigh, a sigh that seemed to carry with it all his worries.
Although deep worry still lingered in her eyes, she finally nodded slightly and reluctantly agreed to her younger sister's decision.
Qin Qianyu also fell into deep thought, her mind replaying scenes from the past.
I mentally rehearsed every step of the operation and every possible scenario.
My younger sister has been on the battlefield since childhood, and the baptism of war has given her a pair of sharp eyes that can instantly discern the key points in a complex situation.
