Zhang Xuanlin didn't believe that Chu Xuan was seriously ill at all. He knew that Chu Xuan was waiting for an opportunity. Anyone could watch the people suffer and do nothing, but Chu Xuan would not.

Lu Yanluo smiled and filled Zhang Xuanlin's cup of tea again. "The one who tied the bell must be the one who untied it. Sir Zhang, this trip was well made. It's been so long since Yue Lengxin returned to Northern Frontier. Doesn't Sir Zhang want to see how she is doing?"

When Yue Lengxin was mentioned, Zhang Xuanlin seemed to be at a critical point. He refused to say a word and drove the carriage alone with his eyes closed to rest.

The Night King's troops marched in a mighty force and headed straight for the frontier of Northern Frontier. The news soon reached the King of Northern Frontier.

The King of Northern Frontier personally led his troops to garrison Guantuo City, and then secretly ordered the execution of the emperor.

He was not afraid of any of the soldiers from Tianji except Chu Xuan, whom he had to be wary of. He could only kill the emperor before Chu Xuan arrived.

The war has begun. Chu Xin may have just wanted to seek justice for Yue Lengxin, but with the unstoppable offensive of Northern Frontier, he is no longer satisfied with a small Northern Frontier.

If even a cowardly and incompetent emperor can sit firmly on the throne of Tianji, then why can't he take his place!

There was silence in Suluo Mountain. The army had been taken to Guantuo City by the King of Northern Frontier, and only less than three thousand people were left guarding here.

The leading soldiers received the order from the King of Northern Frontier and brought the emperor out without thinking.

He wanted to kill the emperor with his own hands in front of all the soldiers to boost military morale.

Everyone gathered in the parade ground, staring intently at the emperor who was being dragged and pushed to the execution ground in a miserable state. They were all waiting for the moment when the emperor's head would fall to the ground.

A group of men in black quickly shuttled through the mountains and fields without making any sound. Below them was the camp where the Northern Frontier Army was stationed. Lu Yanluo held the crossbow in one hand, and with a whoosh, a short arrow pierced through the air and shot straight into the chest of the man with a knife.

The knife-wielding soldier's knife, which was originally intended to chop at the emperor, slipped out of his hand, and the world spun around, and he lost his life.

"Enemy attack! Be on guard!"

The camp was suddenly in a panic. Chu Xuan and others were waiting for this opportunity. A thousand people quickly jumped up, broke into the camp with knives, snatched the emperor from the enemy's hands, and protected him behind them.

By the time everyone in the Northern Frontier reacted, the people brought by Chu Xuan had already put the emperor under strict protection.

"Catch them, don't let them run away!" The soldiers were furious and picked up their swords to fight the enemy without thinking.

"Stop." Yue Lengxin stepped out and looked at Chu Xuan: "I remember you, Night King Chu Xuan."

"What? The Night King has come to Sula Mountain!" The soldiers in the Northern Frontier were in a panic. Their king personally led the troops, and the people who were ready for battle in Guantuo City actually appeared in Sula Mountain at this moment.

"Capture the Night King. We must keep the Night King here today no matter what!" The leading soldier raised his arm and shouted, and the surrounding soldiers surrounded Chu Xuan.

"I said stop!" Yue Lengxin shouted, stopping him: "No one is allowed to touch him today!"

"Ye Wang, for Lu Yanluo's sake, I will let you go this time. Leave the emperor behind and take your people away."

"Princess!" The leading soldier looked at Yue Lengxin in disbelief.

"Thank you, Princess, for remembering me." Lu Yanluo smiled as she slowly walked down the mountain. "It's been a while since we last met. Princess, how are you?"

Yue Lengxin was obviously happy to see Lu Yanluo, and the murderous aura on her body faded a lot, but when she saw Zhang Xuanlin behind Lu Yanluo, her face immediately darkened.

Lu Yanluo seemed to have sensed something and had Zhang Xuanlin brought to her: "Princess, every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. The person who framed you that day was Zhang Xuanlin. If you want to vent your anger, just go to him. I can hand him over to you to deal with as you please, to settle the feud between Tianji and Beijiang. Do you agree, Princess?"

Yue Lengxin looked at Zhang Xuanlin steadily, and after a long while, she slowly nodded: "Okay, it's a deal, let him go!"

"Princess!" the soldier shouted, "The king has already issued an order to lock up Emperor Tianji here. You can decide to release him privately. This is completely against the king's order. Ye Wang Chu Xuan is very strategic. Letting him go now is tantamount to letting a tiger go back to the mountain. Princess, please listen to us and leave Emperor Tianji and Ye Wang Chu Xuan here for the king's decision."

"Shut up, I said put it in, didn't you hear me?" Yue Lengxin was angry.

But the soldiers were obviously unwilling to give up and still insisted: "Princess, please think about the king. We have already exhausted our national strength to send troops to attack Tianji. If this battle fails, how can you let the king face the people of the Northern Frontier, Princess! Please think twice!"

Lu Yanluo ignored the soldiers' shouting and raised her hand to order them to release Zhang Xuanlin.

"I leave the person to you. How you deal with him depends on the princess' mood."

Zhang Xuanlin followed closely, raised his head and looked at Yue Lengxin, hesitated for a moment and finally spoke: "Princess."

The word "princess" made Yue Lengxin feel an unknown chill in her heart. It was the most instinctive reaction of her body that rose from the bottom of her heart.

It’s not that she has never seen Zhang Xuanlin before, but at this moment, some extremely unfamiliar images gradually flooded into her mind.

"My name is Zhang Xuanlin, nice to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Does the princess like me?"

"Father and mother, your son has avenged you..."

Every word and every incident surged through her mind at once, causing Yue Leng's heart to ache. She remembered Zhang Xuanlin, the man she once loved, who was also the man who had hurt her the most and put her in despair.

Zhang Xuanlin didn't know that Yue Lengxin had recovered her memory, he just kept expressing his apologies.

"Princess, everything that happened today is because I was blinded by hatred. It's my fault for using you, framing you, and making you suffer. Please kill me."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the soldiers drew his sword and pointed it at Zhang Xuanlin, saying sternly: "Don't try to deceive the princess with your lies. Go to hell!"

“Stop!” Yue Lengxin decisively raised her knife to block, her face somewhat ugly: “Who allowed you to do that? He is my enemy, and he deserves to be killed by me personally.”

The leader of the soldiers took a step back upon hearing this, but still looked at Yue Lengxin and Zhang Xuanlin.

Yue Lengxin turned the blade and pressed it against Zhang Xuanlin's neck, with an unknown emotion in her eyes.

"Zhang Xuanlin, when you betrayed me, did you ever think that this day would come? Have you ever been sincere to me? Do you... ever regret putting me in danger?"

Zhang Xuanlin was trembling and unable to speak, his eyes were bloodshot.

Yue Lengxin laughed at himself. Yes, how could he regret it? He had never been sincere to her. What was he expecting?

"I've changed my mind." Yue Lengxin pulled the knife away, looked at Zhang Xuanlin with disgust, and said sarcastically, "I don't want to dirty my hands, and you are not worthy of me to do it myself. Throw you off the cliff to feed the wolves, Zhang Xuanlin, let's forget about our grudges in this life, and let's not see each other again in the next life."
