After sending Xiaoxiao back to the military camp, He Yunxiao hurriedly went to find Ruobao.
Breaking through the city gates is a major event that could affect the situation between Qi and Yan, so we must inform Ruobao.
He Yunxiao's mission to breach the city gate was no small matter, as both Fan Ziruo and Jiang Wuyou knew. Ruobao had already received intelligence about the strange noises coming from Luoyue Pass, but He Yunxiao's delayed return had greatly worried her.
Jiang Wuyou was much calmer than her sister. She roughly knew Chu Xiaoxiao's level and was also aware of the existence of the Soul-Devouring Pill, so she concluded that He Yunxiao was unlikely to be in any serious trouble. "Don't worry, sister. Young Master is very lucky and will most likely be fine."
Fan Ziruo nodded.
But he was still so worried that his brows furrowed.
"Ruobao, Ruobao's city gate has been blown up!" He Yunxiao excitedly arrived at Ruobao's room.
When Fan Ziruo saw He Yunxiao arrive, she quickly got up to check on him and see if he was injured.
Seeing that he was unharmed, Ruobao was finally relieved.
"The city gates have been breached?"
"Not only the city gate, but the city wall was also blown open." He Yunxiao picked up the teapot and took a sip.
"It's cracked? How big is the crack?" Ruobao asked.
"I couldn't see it clearly, but it wasn't big. Even if there was a crack, the Yan army has been working hard to repair it in the past few hours."
Fan Ziruo pondered for a moment and said, "Breaking the city is a big deal. I estimate that the King of the Northwest will call us for a meeting tomorrow."
He Yunxiao instructed Ruobao, "Ruobao, you must not reveal the Daoist priest's identity. The Daoist priest comes from the Taixu Sect and is already coveted by many. If people find out that she is a grandmaster who can break through a city, she will inevitably be targeted and used by others."
"I know."
"Yes. As long as the Yan Kingdom knows that we have the ability to breach the city, peace talks will be just around the corner. We should be able to return to Yinjing soon."
Thinking of Mengbao's body, He Yunxiao finished speaking with a satisfied smile, only to notice Ruobao staring at him. He Yunxiao suddenly realized something and quickly added, "The first thing to do upon returning to Yinjing is to prepare a small gift and go to the Fan family to arrange the engagement."
Fan Ziruo gave a soft hum, indicating her satisfaction.
After He Yunxiao appeased the First Madam, he took her hand and said, "Madam, now that you're engaged, what will happen to Youbao?"
Jiang Wuyou blinked and looked at Fan Ziruo.
With the matter now at hand, Ruobao couldn't show favoritism, so she said, "After Ziruo makes the decision, we'll choose an auspicious day to invite my sister in."
"Thank you, sister!" Youbao took Ruobao's hand at just the right moment.
Watching the two beauties playfully touching, He Yunxiao wondered if there was any possibility...
Based on He Yunxiao's understanding of the female protagonists, the possibility of such a thing happening to Ruobao is almost nonexistent.
Of these several "treasure"-level female leads, Meng Bao is still the one He Yunxiao likes best. She truly lives up to her reputation as a "powerful on the outside, charming on the inside" type. With the "Li Qingmeng" persona as her cover, Meng Bao has the fewest reservations. Although she often gets shy once her defenses are broken, she's the most uninhibited as long as you don't touch her bell. Touch the bell, and it's all over. The domineering queen instantly transforms into a naive young girl, her face flushed red enough to steam.
Youbao is knowledgeable, but reserved. Ruobao is clueless and somewhat slow-witted. Feibao is talented, but her popularity with her isn't high enough yet.
That's roughly how it goes with the "treasure" level female lead.
...
After leaving Ruobao's place, He Yunxiao didn't sleep for a moment and went straight to Feibao's residence.
To He Yunxiao's surprise, Fei Bao, who was always diligent, fell asleep on her side instead of practicing her skills as diligently as before.
Upon closer inspection, you can see some tear stains on the pillow.
He Yunxiao sighed. Mengbao and Youbao had both cried before. It seemed that girls were all like that; sometimes they were too sentimental and inevitably overthink things. On the contrary, the delicate Ruobao didn't cry, and had an expression that said, "I will never marry until you come back from Yan."
Looking at Fei Bao's 65% favorability rating and the still dim sky, He Yunxiao decisively closed the window and drew the curtains.
Given Fei Bao's personality, it would be impossible for her to accept the Soul-Devouring Pill for healing without any hesitation or remorse. He Yunxiao believed that if Fei Bao were given the choice, she would never stoop to asking him for the Soul-Devouring Pill. Even being forced into it would be very difficult.
As a result, she would end up doing a lot of time-consuming and laborious healing work for no reason because of her "shyness".
He Yunxiao thought selflessly: Qingxuzi is eyeing us covetously, and there's that Grandmaster chatting with the Southwest King. We can't rely on Xiaoxiao alone. We need to get Feibao to put aside her pride and save face, quickly recover her strength, and stand up for herself.
To get Fei Bao to use the Soul-Devouring Pill obediently, you need to at least reach a certain level of affection where you can touch her heart knot. She's currently at level 65, 10 points away from reaching that level.
He Yunxiao has no intention of letting the opponent off the hook.

Qingyuzi recalled her childhood.
At that time, she had just been led to the Taixu Sect by her master and had not yet formally become an apprentice to learn martial arts. There were many interesting things in the sect, which dazzled her and made her linger.
During the day and at night, before and after meals, the things to play with can be different and never the same. It's simply a paradise for children.
She remembered one time when she got up in the middle of the night and sneaked off to the pond to take a boat. The small boat drifted to the center of the pond, and the wind was strong that night, so she spent the whole night in the small boat that was bobbing up and down, swaying left and right.
After that night, she dared not be playful anymore and obediently followed her master to practice martial arts.
