542 Father and son fight side by side
First, I am grateful for my father's trust; second, I am grateful for his guidance and cultivation. Everything is understood without words.
At this moment, Nian Qiangguo held the jade bottle, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, tightly in both hands, his eyes shining with determination.
He took a deep breath, as if drawing upon the strength and wisdom his father had passed down to him in the past.
A hint of relief and expectation in his old eyes.
'My son, a prodigy, will transform into a dragon tonight.'
Master Yun gently circulated the warm water in the kettle with his inner energy until it became scalding hot in no time. He quickly added a cup of Qingxin tea, closed the lid, and his eyes showed a hint of heartache.
After all, I only had four tablets left. I used one, so I only had three left. That was really too few.
He instructed in a low, quick, and serious voice, "Nephew, after you've finished this tea, drink it immediately."
Nian Qiangguo was puzzled, but immediately replied respectfully, "Yes." Then he quickly went to the teacup.
The time it takes to drink a cup of tea is up in an instant. Elder Yun said in a low voice, "Lift the lid and down it in one gulp."
The moment the lid of the bottle was lifted, a delicate fragrance, like a divine brew, filled the air, refreshing the soul and bringing an unprecedented sense of peace and tranquility.
"Old age is the same," Elder Yun said in a low voice, "Quickly, drink it first, then take the medicine."
The powerful machinery of the Nianguo machine was running smoothly, seemingly oblivious to its surroundings. It downed its tea and tea leaves in one gulp and swallowed the dragon blood rice.
For a moment, he forgot himself and the world around him, his mind completely absorbed. He stood there, his mind leaving his body. The old man, Yun, was gone in an instant, his eyes serious and fierce. He looked around, sword and spear in hand, stopping anyone who tried to interfere.
Those who obstruct one's path will not be spared by sword or spear. Although there may not be anyone interfering, it is always better to be careful.
In the old man's eyes, there was a rare hint of excitement, gratitude, and solemnity.
At the camp outside the city, Yun Su, Yun Qing, and Yun Shuni discussed something in a low voice. Yun Baiyi remained silent, looking down at the surrounding situation, at the miniature sand table of the environment around Dalong Prefecture.
The map vividly depicts diverse terrains such as mountains, plateaus, plains, basins, and hills, as well as bodies of water like rivers and lakes. It also meticulously portrays road conditions, villages, towns, and county seats along the way.
Once the three of them stopped, Yun Baiyi's words revealed a sense of caution and seriousness as she softly said, "Miss, General, based on the information we've gathered so far, there are no cultivators around Dalong Prefecture that require special attention, unless they are some hidden forces."
Currently, there are no other forces operating near our residence, and our spies are merely gathering intelligence without taking any further action.
Yun Su nodded slightly. She already knew about the secret spies. Although they were called secret spies, they were also open spies. They had never concealed their activities. They were just people who could not cultivate or whose cultivation prospects had been cut off. Such situations existed in various places, so there was no need to investigate them too much.
Yun Qingqing said in a clear voice, "The Master of Jingzhai said that if the Demon Slaying Division is short-handed, or if there are exceptionally difficult situations, they might ask us for help. General in white robes, you should be prepared for this."
Yun Baiyi nodded slightly, her expression unchanged, and said softly, "We soldiers are here to protect our territory. If you need any help, please just give the order."
The men in black will be back in the next few days, at which point this place should be safe, and petty thieves and fools shouldn't dare to come.
Yun Su nodded slightly and said softly, "Regarding military expansion, after the unification of the surrounding areas of Dalong Prefecture, tax collection will begin in various places. Please pay close attention, Sister Yun Qing, as a new army needs to be established."
To maintain the safety of the people in the surrounding prefectures and counties, as well as the towns and villages below.
Yun Qing smiled and nodded, indicating that she understood. Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and the entire space was bathed in a red sunset glow.
In the void, a golden lotus flame appeared out of nowhere.
The surrounding temperature suddenly became scorching hot, and Yun Su and the other two could instantly feel the intense heat wave, as if even the air itself was burning.
The lotus flames suddenly exploded, like a rain of fire falling from the sky, resembling a beautiful meteor shower. The heatwave and flames startled the three of them, who stared at Yun Qing in utter astonishment.
Yun Baiyi's eyes widened in terror, and he involuntarily gasped in a low voice, "The Martial Emperor?"
Yun Su and Yun Shuni were also astonished. How long had it been? They had already achieved invincibility, and the prospect of becoming Martial Saints was now a certainty. A hint of doubt and thoughtfulness flickered in their eyes.
Yun Qing nodded slightly, a hint of pride and arrogance on her face as she tried to conceal her sense of accomplishment.
Yun Baiyi slowly recovered, her eyes gleaming with joy, her voice barely concealing her happiness and excitement. She whispered, "Congratulations, Miss Yun Qing! This will undoubtedly give Dalong Prefecture a significant boost in their efforts to clear the weeds."
They had high hopes and confidence in the future of Dalong Prefecture, and even higher expectations for their own future.
He spoke in a low voice, maintaining a semblance of composure, "Miss Yun Qing is probably the youngest Martial Emperor."
She then quickly added in a low voice, "Of course, the son-in-law is an exception."
He finished speaking with a slight chuckle.
Yun Qing nodded slightly, a little embarrassed. Yun Su and Yun Shuni also looked on expectantly, thinking to themselves, 'We'll have to ask them about this when we get back.'
With Emperor Wu behind him, all the difficult problems were easily solved. Things that were hard to decide before, and people he didn't want to offend, were no longer a concern.
Yun Baiyi's voice trembled slightly as she asked in a low voice, "Can we notify the other soldiers?"
Yun Qing pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head and said softly, "I haven't fully broken through yet. I'll celebrate after I do. For now, I'll wait."
Yun Baiyi nodded immediately.
Yun Su said softly, "The grand celebration can wait a while, but such a momentous event deserves a proper celebration. Today, let's have an extra meal: a soup made from the demon dragon's meat. Tell them that the general's strength has increased, and we'll celebrate together."
Upon hearing that it was the flesh of a demonic dragon, Yun Baiyi and his subordinate soldiers bowed deeply in gratitude, saying, "Thank you, ladies." During this time, the soldiers' strength had improved rapidly, with many already reaching the sixth rank.
I'm planning to wait for the man in black to return so we can discuss forming an elite, mobile force, primarily composed of soldiers of rank five and below for guard duty. This will alleviate some of the pressure on you, Miss.
Then, without waiting for her mistress's reply, Yun Baiyi spoke earnestly, her voice trembling slightly.
The soldiers all felt this way: their children and parents had received great kindness from their daughters and sons-in-law, and their children had access to education and opportunities to choose from.
My parents and wife are fortunate to have been cared for by Miss, receiving simple but well-paid work. Aside from doing menial tasks and dealing with recent matters in Changzhou, we have been unable to offer any assistance to my son-in-law and daughter, and I truly feel ashamed.
He paused for a moment, seemingly trying to control his excitement and his thoughts during this time.
