Leaving aside their bickering, let's talk about Mingyu in the granary.
When he was collecting those armor boxes in Pingshan, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this space. But now that he's started collecting grain, he's discovered its drawbacks.
He had to touch each of these sacks by hand to put them into his spatial storage.
Some of the stacks were so high that you had to use your light-footed skills to fly up and collect them.
There's just too much grain here; we can't possibly harvest it all. After so long, we've only managed to collect about a third of it.
If we continue collecting them this way, we probably won't finish until dawn.
His face was grim, and he was holding his breath.
He was unwilling to give up just like that.
After finally managing to sneak in, he found that tens of thousands of soldiers were waiting for him in Luzhou.
He was heavy-hearted and could only focus on harvesting the grain.
Jiang Bai and Ji Yanwen were guarding the gate, and they could vaguely hear shouts and the flames approaching from the city gate.
"Hold on for a bit, I'll go in and check on him."
Jiang Bai swept aside a group of assassins with his staff, then turned and pushed open the door to enter.
Ming Yu, who was inside, was startled and looked towards the door. Seeing that it was Jiang Bai, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why did you only collect such a small amount?"
Jiang Bai glanced at it and frowned.
Mingyu opened his mouth to explain, but Jiang Bai grabbed his hand.
He was slightly taken aback and subconsciously tried to pull his hand away, but Jiang Bai scolded him, "Don't move."
Then, he felt something travel along his hand and straight to his mind.
"It really is here."
Jiang Bai uttered a phrase, and his soul power touched the jade pendant in his sea of consciousness. In that instant, a thought suddenly flashed through Ming Yu's mind: if he wanted, he could take everything in this room into his possession.
Almost as soon as he had this thought, the grain bag that his other hand touched immediately disappeared.
Then something amazing happened: the other grain bags connected to that grain bag also disappeared, all of them being stored in his spatial storage.
"Go to the next one."
Here, the granaries are connected one after another, and each one is locked with a large padlock.
But these heavy locks were no match for Jiang Bai.
She gripped the large lock and squeezed it hard, turning it into scrap metal, rendering it completely useless.
She held his hand and never let go.
The two moved between the various granaries, and occasionally they could hear Ji Yanwen's voice outside, which sounded like he was vomiting blood.
"Are you... done yet?"
He spoke with difficulty, and his abdomen had been stabbed again sometime earlier.
And the locations were all strikingly similar to the places where he had been injured before.
Just as Jiang Bai and her companion finished collecting the last grain depot, she released Ming Yu's hand and turned to rush outside.
For some reason, Mingyu felt that she wasn't in a good mood.
Jiang Bai rushed outside, not even bothering with a stick, but just clenching his fists, taking down the assassins one by one with each punch. Soon, there was no one in front of Ji Yanwen.
"What...what happened to her?"
As the person who had spent the most time with Jiang Bai, Ji Yanwen immediately noticed Jiang Bai's unusual behavior.
Mingyu stood beside him, swallowed hard, and said, "Xu...Xu is in a bad mood."
Ji Yanwen turned to look at him.
What did you do? She's in a bad mood.
Mingyu blinked innocently.
I know nothing.
Jiang Bai was seething with anger, feeling that his merits were missing a lot, so he wanted to kill all the assassins in front of him.
He was caught up in the action and didn't notice that some of the assassins looked noticeably different from the others.
They hid behind the other assassins, carefully observing Jiang Bai.
Just as Jiang Bai's fist was about to smash into the head of a suicide soldier, the soldier was suddenly pulled, and Jiang Bai's fist, which was originally going to smash into his head, hit his throat instead.
With a snap, Jiang Bai froze on the spot.
It's over.
Almost the instant the assassin breathed his last, Jiang Bai felt a stiffness in her body. She mustered all her strength to fight off the rushing assassin and retreated with difficulty to the doorway.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Surrounded by people, Ji Yanwen didn't dare call Jiang Bai's name. He grabbed her arm and quickly noticed her unusual behavior.
Her eyes held a mixture of anger and helplessness.
Mingyu, blocking the people surrounding them, glanced at her and silently asked, "What happened to her?"
Jiang Bai is currently battling the sudden pulling force within his body and has no time to pay attention to what's happening outside.
Among the group of assassins, the few assassins nodded to each other and quietly retreated.
Flat mountains.
The Jiang family residence.
It was the middle of the night, and Jiang Songwen was sound asleep when he was suddenly awakened from a nightmare the moment Jiang Bai killed someone.
"Big sister."
He shouted, and soon footsteps could be heard outside.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
Jiang Songwen opened his eyes. The room was completely dark. It took him a while to realize that he was in his own room.
"Young Master?"
The person outside called out again, and he finally reacted, immediately getting out of bed and opening the door.
"Uncle Sanjiu, I want my eldest sister."
Jia Thirty-Nine, using the alias Song Sanjiu, hesitated upon hearing his words, "The young lady has gone out on business. Young Master, you should go to sleep first. You'll be able to see the young lady tomorrow, okay?"
Thinking that Jiang Songwen was thinking about Jiang Bai, he squatted down and patiently tried to persuade him.
No, don't.
"Big sister, I want big sister."
Jiang Songwen shook his head repeatedly, ignoring Jia Thirty-Nine, and rushed directly towards Jiang Bai's room.
She kept calling out "elder sister" to herself.
