Quan Ji returned to the city lord's mansion.
Unable to sleep, she sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate her spiritual enlightenment.
I've been using my powers too frequently lately, and my energy is starting to run low. I need to replenish it quickly.
We only need three more cities to conquer Huoyi City.
Once Huoyi City is controlled, the Huoyi Empire will essentially be within our grasp.
...
The next morning.
After replenishing their resources, Quan Ji led her soldiers on another expedition.
On the way, Quan Ji was deep in thought.
"Fang Bading".
"Your subject is present."
Fang Bading quickly stepped forward.
Quan Ji glanced ahead and said, "Don't you think something's fishy?"
Fang Bading was puzzled for a moment: "Strange?"
Quan Ji nodded.
“When we started attacking Blazing City, the soldiers of Blazing City must have sent a message to Fire Archer City, but Fire Archer City has been slow to react. I feel that something is not right.”
"No... the Fire Archer Empire should have noticed us much earlier. For example, when we raided that 10,000-strong force at night, they were so quiet. Could they be planning something?"
Quan Ji continued speaking to herself, then a smirk appeared on her lips: "Do you think... the Qingquan Empire might make a move again?"
Fang Bading was stunned. "Didn't Marshal Jun already wipe out a team of 10,000 elite soldiers? It's unlikely they would dare to do it again."
"That's not necessarily true. The annihilation of a 10,000-strong elite force is also a huge loss for a third-level empire, so they are naturally furious. However, they dare not provoke Xingyuan, so... we are the most likely to continue to suffer."
A faint golden light flickered in Quan Ji's eyes. "No matter what, it's always better to be prepared. Let's try to conquer the next city... Once we conquer it, we'll all change into the armor of the Fire Yi Empire and disguise ourselves as the Fire Yi army. If the Qingquan Empire dares to continue, then let's have a big melee."
Fang Bading lowered his brows as he listened to Quan Ji's plan, "In a chaotic melee, wouldn't our own people be easily overwhelmed..."
"There's no need to worry about that." Quan Ji raised the corners of her mouth. "I will use my special ability to mark everyone, and only those who are also marked will be able to see it."
Fang Bading listened, his eyes filled with excitement, "Young Miss is brilliant!"
If the Qingquan Empire dares to continue supporting the Huoyi Empire, a massive battle will occur, minimizing the losses of Shengyao.
That's a dirty trick.
I never expected the young lady to be so cunning; I really couldn't tell at all.
Quan Ji curled her lips and looked in the direction of Huo Yi City: "Pass this plan down."
"yes!"
The Fire Archer Empire, oh the Fire Archer Empire.
It's adorably foolish to place your hopes on others.
No wonder he was entangled with Shengyao for so long; he must not be very clear-headed.
...
Fire Archer City, Imperial Palace.
The ruler of the Fire Archer Empire, dressed in a thick red robe, held a letter in his hand with great excitement.
"The Qingquan Empire has dispatched a thousand-strong army of supernatural beings to infiltrate Huoyi City. If Quan Ji dares to attack Huoyi City, we'll show her what true terror is!"
"You think your mere Holy Glory Empire can destroy my Fire Archer? What do you think you, Quan Ji, are!"
...
Soon, Quan Ji led the Holy Glory Army to the front of the second city.
They rested for a while outside the city gate to recuperate, and then, as always, Princess Quan stood in front of the city gate and shouted.
"You have five minutes to choose: surrender or fight!"
