Lin Ru slung the spirit cannon over her shoulder, looked at the scene before her, and shook her head helplessly. "Sigh! I've already turned the power down so low! And yet so many people still died!"
"You guys were just unlucky to run into me!"
Her series of actions not only terrified the people on the other side, but also stunned everyone on their side!
Especially the Quan family later on!
Although they had a natural affinity for Lin Ru, believing she could accomplish anything, they still found it hard to believe that she alone could command the Prince Shun's vast army!
Now I understand!
Sure enough, their chieftain could not only pray for rain, but also destroy enemies; he was practically omnipotent!
Actually, they aren't needed; the clan leader alone could conquer the entire world!
When Wu Ling saw that Lin Ru's eyes were slightly red when she turned around, he knew something was wrong. Whenever Lin Ru seemed to be in a bad mood, her eyes would turn red, and she would also have a headache after killing someone!
He ran over quickly!
His expression was full of worry!
"Miss! Are you alright? Does your headache seem to be acting up again?"
Lin Ru was indeed having a headache from the system's constant announcements; it felt like I was stuck with a buff!
The system is broadcasting in my mind the amount of hatred each person has increased by, and recently it's been broadcasting for every single name!
It was as if she could clearly recognize how many people she had just killed and what their names were!
Let her remember clearly her cruelty!
She smiled at Wu Ling, whose face was filled with worry and anxiety, and said, "I'll leave the rest to you! Lin Bai and Lin Mo, you must bring them back safely. I have a bit of a headache! I might faint in a moment! Carry me to the carriage! Don't let anyone near me!"
Wu Ling disregarded all notions of propriety between men and women and social hierarchy. While Lin Ru was still conscious, he scooped her up in his arms and pressed her head into his chest, not wanting anyone else to see her bloodshot eyes!
This was the first time he had used a commanding tone with Lin Ru: "Close your eyes!"
Lin Ru listened to the strong heartbeat in her ear and smelled the comforting scent of green bamboo!
She slowly closed her eyes and skillfully snuggled into his arms!
I don't want to care about anything else!
When she regained consciousness, it was completely quiet outside the carriage!
She lifted the carriage curtain and saw Wu Ling leading a small group of people, who had surrounded the carriage in a circle! And the sun was already about to set!
She looked at Wu Ling's resolute and serious profile. The setting sun shone on his face, as if it were gilding him with a layer of gold!
Lin Ru sincerely felt that his facial features were too beautiful, especially his profile. His nose and jawline were so perfect that it made people a little jealous!
His current appearance is somewhere between a boy and a man; he hasn't lost his boyish innocence, but he has a touch of manly wildness!
No wonder so many women pretend to be unwell and snuggle into his arms!
It's a shame this guy is such a simpleton!
He doesn't understand girls' feelings at all!
Wu Ling felt the gaze coming from inside the carriage and quickly turned around. He saw a fluffy head pop out of the carriage, its face flushed from just waking up, and its clear eyes were so captivating! Like an innocent little rabbit, it was hard to look directly at it!
He glanced over there somewhat shyly!
"Your Majesty! You're awake? How are you? Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?"
"The two young masters have been escorted back. They suffered some external injuries, but according to Ji Wenzhuo's surviving subordinates, they were given poison. However, after a brief examination, I found no poison in their bodies!"
"And those who survived were all taken back by Quan Jinyu. He asked me to tell you that he wanted to go back early and torture these people to see if he could get any useful information."
“Your mother secretly followed us. She originally wanted to stay and keep you company, but because you specifically instructed that no one be allowed to approach, I had Wu Juan take her back!”
"You've rested for two hours now! It's getting late! Shall we set off back?"
Although Lin Ru felt a little embarrassed, she still carefully explained what had happened during the two hours she had been unconscious!
My heart couldn't help but feel a little warm!
She smiled. "Yes! You did a great job! Let's go back then! It is getting late!"
"I feel much better now, just a little tired!"
Wu Ling walked up to her, inexplicably not wanting others to see Lin Ru looking so adorable. He pulled the carriage curtain closed tightly again and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty! It's windy outside, so please don't stick your head out. Just tell me what's wrong through the curtain!"
"Since you're still not feeling well, continue to rest. I'll have the carriage move a little slower."
Lin Ru was a little confused. There was clearly no wind outside, so why would someone say it was windy? Could it be that her cultivation had increased slightly after taking a nap, making her unable to feel the wind?
She adjusted her breathing and examined her meridians internally, but found that there seemed to be no change!
She was a little confused, but too lazy to ask any more questions, and just leaned against the carriage and fell asleep again!
When she woke up again, she was awakened by the aroma of food!
She opened her eyes wide and the first thing she saw was the ceiling, followed by the curtains around her. They looked familiar. She sat up and realized that she was actually lying in her own bed!
Seeing that she had woken up, Wu Juan said happily, "Miss, you're finally awake!"
"How are you? Do you feel unwell?"
"Should I go and call a doctor?"
Lin Ru shook her head. "No need! How did I get back?"
Wu Juan smiled and said, "It was the young clan leader who carried you back! You have no idea! When you first came back, everyone was a little worried and wanted to go over and take a look!"
"But they were all scared off by just one look from the young clan leader. And I don't know what's wrong with him, but in this sweltering heat, as soon as he carried you down from the carriage, he wrapped a thick coat around your head! He seemed afraid you would catch a cold!"
"And if anyone made a sound along the way, the young clan leader would definitely knock them unconscious. It really scared me to death!"
"Only when I hold you in my arms can I feel that the young clan leader is still a human being. Otherwise, it really is just like what the elders said!"
