Hearing this, Emperor Xiling suddenly felt better.
It’s just that Yue Qianli has made too many enemies, so let him taste the feeling of being hunted down again.
He ordered Long Yidao: "If you continue to send assassins, I don't trust you. We spent money, we must send capable assassins!"
"yes!"
"By the way, has Zhang Nian gone to meet up with the 300,000-strong army at the border?"
"According to the news, he will arrive at the border in the next few days."
The Emperor of Xiling Kingdom nodded, military power must be in the hands of his own people.
Speaking of Dongzhao Kingdom, at this time Donghuang received news that the killer from Duanhun Ridge and the leader of Longfeng Village were both killed.
I wasn't too surprised, this was Yue Qianli.
Even if a tiger is in dire straits, it is not easy to bully!
If Yue Qianli was killed easily, he would not be worthy of the one million taels he spent.
This one million is just to cause trouble for Yue Qianli and make his exile journey less smooth.
His goal has never been to cross a thousand miles!
At this time, in the border town, in the military camp.
Huo Ran was discussing with Lu Chen. They had already learned through An Wu that the boss had been demoted and exiled to the northern border. Although they were very angry and irritable, it was of no use.
Seeing that the general was about to arrive at the border.
They can just resign and go home. Without the boss around, they don't have that kind of enthusiasm.
"Lu Chen, have you informed your family yet?" Huo Ran looked at Lu Chen and asked, "I've already written a letter to the old man, asking him to find a way to resign and return home to farm and retire, or to slowly head north."
"Well, I've already told them. As for how to choose, it's up to my father."
Lu Chen had an average relationship with his family, and he knew that they might be reluctant to give up wealth and glory. He had already told them that it didn't matter what they did.
He has spent most of his life with the boss, Huo Ran and his other brothers, and is not that close to his family.
On the contrary, Huo Ran's family is more united. They all have quick tempers, but they can judge the situation and know when to advance and retreat.
Huo Ran, who knew his family's situation, patted Lu Chen's shoulder fiercely and said, "It's okay. You still have us brothers. The boss is waiting for us too."
"Yeah, I know."
Lu Chen spoke relatively little, perhaps because of this, the two of them got along very well and were like one person in the military camp.
Huo Ran walked over and put his arm around his shoulders, saying, "I have almost five hundred brothers who want to resign with me. What about you?"
"That's about right!"
Huo Ran nodded. "Around a thousand is not bad. Quality is more important than quantity. We don't need to force it. It's better if it's voluntary."
Lu Chen nodded in agreement, then asked, "Will the new general agree to our resignation? With so many people?"
Huo Ran said disapprovingly: "Don't worry, he's most happy and most hoping for us to leave. If we continue to stay, he'll have a headache. He can't beat us, and he can't do anything to us, haha!"
After listening to this and thinking for a moment, Lu Chen also figured it out.
After all, he and Huo Ran have fathers who are officials in the court. In terms of martial arts, they are indeed not as good as him and Huo Ran.
Furthermore, as the left and right generals of Yue Qianli, they would certainly not be useful to the new general, so it would be better to let them go.
"Alright! Once the general arrives at the border town and the handover is complete, we'll head straight to the northern border?"
"Yes, let's arrange it this way. The boss will be surprised when he sees us, hehe."
Seeing Huo Ran's sly look, Lu Chen couldn't bear to look at him, nor did he want to hit him, as he might be severely punished by the boss.
～～～～～～～～～
Yue Qianli, who was ready to set off, didn't know at this time that his other two good brothers had already planned to go directly to the northern border to give him a surprise.
They were saying goodbye to Nangong Yumo at this time, and the two groups were about to go their separate ways after leaving Beiluo City.
Nangong Yumo was holding the little cub in his arms, reluctant to part with him.
"Doudou doesn't want to say goodbye to uncle either?"
Nangong Yumo asked while holding the little cub. He actually found that the little cub was very smart and sensible. He was especially good at reading people's expressions and coaxing people.
I like him very much and always feel that he is better behaved than other children in his family.
The little boy also liked the new uncle and was very nice to him, giving him many valuable gifts.
So, I patted his shoulder and said in a baby voice, "Uncle, I don't want to say goodbye, but you are an adult now, you have your own family, and they miss you."
What the little guy means is that he doesn't want to be separated, but you also have your own family and they will miss you too.
Nangong Yumo actually understood everything and liked this kid who was less than three years old even more.
How can it be so well-behaved? I’ll just take it home and raise it.
Sensing his thoughts, Yue Qianli reached out and took the little cub in his arms, then looked at the sky.
"Brother, hurry up and leave, otherwise it will be dark."
He sighed and continued, "Hasn't it already been agreed that once Northern City stabilizes and you've trained a successor, you're always welcome to come to Northern City. The courtyard and rooms are ready for you!"
It was rare for Yue Qianli to say such a long sentence. These were all agreed upon by Jiang Ling, Shen Yinyun and Nangong Yumo last night.
With his arms empty, Nangong Yumo could only sigh.
"Well, be careful along the way. There will definitely be a lot of assassins and people blocking the way."
"Thank you for your concern, brother. Don't worry, Yue Qianli has recovered his martial arts. Those killers and people in the martial arts world are just scum. Don't be afraid!" Jiang Ling took over his words and said.
Even if you are thousands of miles away, we will eventually part ways.
All good things must come to an end!
Parting is for the next meeting.
Nangong Yumo climbed onto the carriage first, sat down, and waved to them, "Let's go, take care!"
"Well, take care of yourself, uncle!" The little guy blinked his eyes and waved his hands.
"Brother, take care!"
After watching Nangong Yumo's carriage set off, Yue Qianli and the others also climbed onto the carriage and headed towards the northern border.
Perhaps, this journey is becoming more and more turbulent.
However, he is no longer the Yue Qianli who has lost all his martial arts skills and is unable to walk. He can also protect his family.
The weather is getting colder and winter has arrived.
The carriage had been replaced with plush carpets and quilts.
Xiaozaizai and Jiang Hao sat together obediently, with a gap between them, and looked at the scenery on the road with their round eyes.
The little mouth opened wide and exclaimed "Wow, wow". I don't know what he saw, but there is always surprise in the eyes of a child.
The next place they will arrive at is Beili City, which is also the location of Gu Chenfeng’s villa. People from all martial arts sects gather there, it is a real world of martial arts!
For Jiang Ling and his friends, there are challenges, but more of it is curiosity.
What would a place where masters from various martial arts sects gather look like?
