Ning Chenxing took one last look around, her eyes filled with resentment and determination, as if she wanted to etch every corner of the room into her heart.
His gaze was like that of a hungry wolf making its final inspection before leaving its den, filled with resentment at defeat.
Then, he gritted his teeth, his cheek muscles bulging as he exerted himself, and with a flash, he disappeared into the hidden door.
The hidden door slowly closed behind him, making a dull sound, like a giant beast closing its gaping maw, swallowing all the secrets and conspiracies within.
Not long after he disappeared, a series of rapid and orderly footsteps approached from afar, as fast as rolling thunder.
It turned out that the Imperial Guards had received a secret order and rushed to the outside of Linglong Pavilion as fast as the wind.
They were clad in black armor, which gleamed with a cold metallic sheen in the sunlight, like a group of death gods from the darkness.
The sharp blade in his hand gleamed coldly, as if it could sever all evil in the world.
They were like a black torrent of steel, quickly surrounding Linglong Pavilion, leaving no room for escape. Every soldier had a serious expression and a vigilant look in their eyes.
It was as if they were guarding the most precious treasure in the world, or guarding against the most terrifying enemy.
The people in the pavilion were still in shock and panic, and had not yet recovered from the changes that had just occurred, when they were all taken into control by the Imperial Guards like turtles caught in a jar.
The Imperial Guards shouted orders loudly, their voices resounding like bells all around. Under their imposing presence, everyone in the pavilion had no choice but to obey and be escorted back one by one.
At the same time, a group of well-trained soldiers moved swiftly, their steps perfectly synchronized, their expressions solemn and dignified, as if carrying out a sacred mission.
Holding the seals they had prepared beforehand, they strode to the front of Linglong Pavilion's shop and firmly affixed the seals to the door, sealing it tightly.
This made Linglong Pavilion like a cage isolated from the world, no longer able to provide Ning Chenxing with any protection.
It was as if all the conspiracies and evils were sealed behind this tightly closed door, so that they would never see the light of day again.
On the border of the State of Jizi, in the vast and boundless land beyond the Great Wall, the cold wind, like countless sharp icicles, swept in with overwhelming force.
It mercilessly sliced through every inch of air, emitting a sharp whistling sound like the howling of ghosts and wolves.
It was as if war, the god of death, had sounded a sinister prelude, filling the world with a chilling and murderous atmosphere.
Qin Qianluo was clad in a suit of armor that gleamed with a cold light, the patterns on the armor resembling ancient and mysterious runes.
It shimmers faintly in the dim light, highlighting its uniqueness and extraordinary nature.
She stood tall and straight, like an unyielding pine tree, yet her brows were furrowed, and her deep eyes revealed a hint of worry and solemnity.
At this moment, she stood quietly in the tent, her gaze as sharp as a hawk's, staring intently at the light screen in front of her that emitted a soft yet mysterious glow.
Everything that was happening in the capital was unfolding before her eyes through this light screen, like a magnificent and dramatic historical scroll.
Every image, every detail, struck her heart like a heavy hammer.
As the event gradually came to a close, the light screen would suddenly plunge into complete darkness when Ning Chenxing appeared.
It was as if the whole world was mercilessly swallowed by darkness at that moment, plunging into endless silence and fear.
The darkness, like a bottomless black hole, instantly gripped her heart, making it leap into her throat.
It felt as if my heart would burst out of my throat from the tension at any moment.
Every second of waiting felt like torture, and every heartbeat was accompanied by the rhythm of fear.
Fortunately, the scales of fate did not seem to tip entirely in the dark, and eventually, the light returned.
That familiar and reassuring light, like the first ray of dawn breaking through the thick clouds, illuminated her heart, which was almost shrouded in darkness.
What came into view was a scene where everyone was safe and sound. At that moment, the heart that had been hanging in suspense finally settled down, like a huge boulder weighing a thousand pounds.
A feeling of relief instantly spread throughout my body like an electric current.
She closed her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling gently, and took a deep breath.
He tried to calm his heart, which was still pounding violently in his chest, as if he wanted to expel all the fear and worry he had just felt with this breath.
However, the brief moment of relief was fleeting, quickly replaced by harsh reality.
Qin Qianluo's expression turned solemn and iron-like again, her eyes revealing a kind of determination and resolve.
The army will arrive soon, and the war with the Kingdom of Jizi is imminent.
This war was no ordinary conflict; it concerned the life and death of countless people whose fates were like candles flickering in the wind, teetering on the brink of collapse in the storm of war.
It concerns the rise and fall of Chengxiao Kingdom, and the future of the country hangs by a thread; the slightest carelessness will lead to utter ruin.
This heavy responsibility weighed on her shoulders like Mount Tai, allowing her no room for slackness or retreat.
Just then, the sound of a rapid engine approaching from afar broke the silence outside the camp.
It turned out that Xuan Ying was acting on the emperor's orders, riding at breakneck speed all the way here.
He moved with agility, like a black lightning bolt, opening the door and getting out of the car with clean and swift movements.
He hurried into the tent, his expression solemn and serious, and successfully escorted Master Xuwu away.
Almost at the same moment Xuan Ying left, dust billowed in the distance, like rolling yellow clouds that blotted out the sun and filled the entire sky.
