Shangguan Qing flashed and appeared beside Yu Simin. He flicked his fingers lightly and a strong internal force burst out.

With a "bang", the black iron that Yu Simin had spent so much effort to refine instantly shattered into pieces, and the fragments flew everywhere, like a meteor across the night sky, flashing a cold light.

Yu Simin's face suddenly changed, and a hint of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He stared at the mess on the ground, his hands clenched into fists, veins bulging, and he seemed to hear the sound of his teeth chattering.

The air around them seemed to freeze, leaving only Shangguan Qing's calm and composed figure and a pile of broken black iron, highlighting the cruelty of this silent battle.

Shangguan Qing's body trembled slightly. While the powerful internal force shattered the black iron, it accidentally triggered the ancient seal hidden in it.

In an instant, layers of overlapping images flashed back in my mind like a revolving lantern...

On the battlefield where flames of war were raging, she was wearing armor, wielding her sword like a rainbow, looking heroic.

Women are as good as men.

She is the princess of Wei State and also the general Huyan Shaohuan who leads the army to war.

Huyan Shaohua rode on a Ferghana horse, holding a long whip in his hand.

And behind her are thousands of troops.

They were powerful and unstoppable. The Zhou State on the opposite side was equally unwilling to be outdone. They lined up their shields, armor and spears in a neat and uniform manner.

A Zhou general riding a black horse stepped forward from the crowd of soldiers.

A silver-white battle armor and a black headband fluttering in the air with the bleak wind.

Huyan Shaohuan made a "tsk" sound.

Apart from the clothes he was wearing, he looked fair and clean with delicate skin and tender flesh. He didn't have the temperament of a tough guy who could lead troops into battle. He was more like a male lover.

She raised the whip, and the whip hit the air, making a long sound in the air.

She shouted at him with disdain, "Are you Shangguan Yuji, the victorious general of the Zhou Kingdom? How can you be a general when you look so young? You might as well take him back and make him your consort!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Suddenly, the soldiers behind Huyan Shaohuan burst into laughter.

There was also a general nearby who helped Princess Shaohua to provoke, "Being a consort is because our princess thinks highly of you, why don't you surrender quickly and roll into Princess Shaohua's arms, hahahaha!"

Once again, the mocking voices of the Wei soldiers cut through the face of the Zhou State like a sharp blade.

When the Zhou soldiers saw their general being humiliated by the enemy, they became instantly furious. They gnashed their teeth and wished they could rush forward to help General Shangguan.

On the other hand, Shangguan Yuji sat on a black warhorse with a calm expression and a serious face. With his tall stature and noble temperament, he did not look like a general at all.

He seemed to be muttering two words.

Judging from the lip shape, it looks a bit like: Shaohua.

Huyan Shaohua half-closed her eyes.

Even after losing face in front of tens of thousands of soldiers from both sides, he was still able to keep his composure. This man is quite a character.

The battlefield was dusty and both sides were reluctant to start fighting. Dense numbers of heads were looming in the yellow sand. After waiting for too long, the morale of the soldiers on both sides began to wane.

"I've heard that Princess Shaohua has never lost a battle. I wonder if you will take me away today, or I will take you away."

He said the last sentence in a low voice, as if he didn't want anyone to hear.

"Then let's give it a try!" Hu Yan Shaohua raised his whip and swung it towards the sky, looking as heroic as any man. "Wei soldiers! We will win today!"

The morale of the soldiers was high, "Charge!"

The horses of both sides galloped and kept closing the distance between them. The two armies were in a stalemate. Huyan Shaohuan went straight to the enemy general Shangguan Yuji.

As the dense crowd of heads moved around, the dust and sand around them were stirred into a ball.

Princess Shaohuan wrapped her whip around the hoof of Shangguan Yuji's warhorse and pulled it hard.

The black horse lunged forward uncontrollably, its front hooves kneeling on the ground. Shangguan Yuji kicked the horse's back, jumped up, and stood firmly on the ground.

Seeing this, Huyan Shaohua snorted coldly.

"The victorious general is no more than this!"

Then, she took advantage of the victory and hit Shangguan Yuji's neck with another long whip.

But in the next second, something unexpected happened.

Shangguan Yuji raised his hand and grasped the whip steadily, accurately and fiercely, as if he knew where the whip would go in advance.

"You dare to touch my whip?" Shao Hua stared at him coldly, her eyes full of disbelief.

Generals from all countries, all those who led troops to war, knew that the princess general of Wei State swung a long whip. More importantly, once the whip was swung, it was covered with sharp thorns and was poisonous.

So there is a rumor among the people: Only ghosts and gods dare not play with Shaohua's whip!

Shangguan Yuji gritted his teeth and retracted his arm, enduring the pain of the stabbing palm as he pulled the whip back.

The opponent was caught off guard and was brought down by him.

"It's just a poisonous thorn. What's there to be afraid of?" He looked determined, gritted his teeth, raised his arms again and pulled back with force.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shao Hua immediately let go and snatched the whip. She also had a soft sword hidden on her waist.

Afraid of nothing!

Shangguan Yuji threw away the whip and drew his sword.

Sparks flew between the two men's swords and spears, and it was difficult to tell who was better.

Just when Shao Hua was beginning to lose strength, she raised her hand to block his sudden and violent attack.

His brows suddenly furrowed, and his facial muscles twitched with anger.

Shangguan Yuji saw her angry look and smiled crookedly.

"It seems like I'm the one taking you away today."

"dream!"

A spirit of unwillingness to admit defeat surged in her eyes, and she fought back with all her might.

When the two were fighting fiercely, the Wei army's battle plan was not as sophisticated as the Zhou army's deployment and was at a disadvantage.

By the time Shaohuan realized what was happening, it was already too late to save the situation.

"You are trying to pull me down on purpose!" Her facial features were tightly knitted together, and she wished she could tear him to pieces. "You just don't want me to see the situation clearly and command the battle!"

"It's too late to find out now."

He smiled wickedly, took advantage of the situation to grab her wrist and pulled her into his arms, at the same time he raised the sword in his hand and placed it on her collarbone, holding her tightly in his arms.

"Asshole! Let me go!" she yelled.

During her struggle, she almost touched the blade several times.

Shangguan Yuji's eyes instantly became panicked, and he growled in her ear, "Don't move!"

He pulled off his black hairband and tied her wrists. Shao Hua twisted her arms to break free and didn't want to be at his mercy.

"Be honest."

He dragged her onto the horse next to him.

Standing on a high ground, the generals of both sides saw that the female general of Wei had been taken hostage and stopped what they were doing.

An army without a leader is like a scattered ant colony, which will fall at the first blow.

"Your Princess Shaohua has fallen into my hands! From now on, she will be a captive of the Zhou Kingdom. Tell your King of Wei that as long as he does not invade, the princess will have no worries."

The Wei army suffered heavy casualties, while the Zhou army clearly had twice as many soldiers ready to fight.

The outcome of the battle has been decided. Even if Huyan Shaohuan is not taken prisoner, their lives are doomed to be uncertain.

The Wei army looked at each other and had no choice but to put down their weapons and surrender.

"Who told you to surrender!" Shao Hua was so angry that she wanted to jump off her horse and question them one by one.

"When will our Wei Kingdom--Ugh!"

Suddenly a big hand reached out from behind her and covered her mouth, preventing her from making a sound.

Just like that, she, the most glorious princess of Wei State, the ever-victorious female general praised by soldiers of various countries, was defeated by General Shangguan Yuji of Zhou State, and was taken away by him in public and returned to Zhou State...

The scrolling carousel of memories came to an abrupt halt, and Shangguan Qing was brought back to reality.

She looked at the black iron in her hand, and tears started to flow down her face without her knowing when, and her eyes began to feel sore.

She raised her mouth helplessly and sighed, "It turns out that you gave me the surname Shangguan, no wonder..."

No wonder she is the most suitable for Cheng Ji, no wonder only Cheng Ji's blood can summon her.

No wonder she could sleep well at night with him by her side.

But what happened after she was brought back to Zhou?

Shangguan Qing held the ancient black iron tightly, wanting it to bring her back to her past memories.

"Why is it not working!" she growled in panic.

The tears still kept falling, falling to the ground like pearls.

Yu Simin glanced at her speechlessly, "Don't you have a short sword made of ancient black iron? You can have it, but I can't? Why?"

"Just because the strong have more choices than the weak."

After saying this, Shangguan Qing turned around and disappeared into the air, turning into white smoke.

Yu Simin stood aside with his eyes wide open in dissatisfaction, hatred piercing through his eyes towards the place where she disappeared.

......

Dengqing Antique Shop.

When Youxuan saw her coming back, he hurried over.

"My Lord, what's going on?"

"I got it." She said weakly.

Shangguan Qing turned around, closed the door, and waved his hand to set up a barrier.

Youxuan was a little confused, "Why is the store closed so early? Did something happen, sir?"

Shangguan Qing's mind was in a mess, and he walked straight to the sofa, his eyes were distracted and filled with some uneasiness.

Seeing this, Youxuan stopped asking questions and turned back into his original white tiger form to stay by her side.

Shangguan Qing stretched out her hand, and a dagger immediately appeared in her palm.

The luminous pearl on the scabbard shines brightly, like a pearl of history finally unearthed.

"What should I do to remember the past?" she muttered to herself into the dagger.

Youxuan on the side couldn't understand her actions even more. Why was the adult acting so strange today?

Shangguan Qing remembered that the short knife had recognized its owner before she was alive. Utensils and knives usually recognize their owners with blood, so...
