The next day.
With the Battle of Zhuyu imminent, a woman named Sister Rong arrived at the Dongqiu camp.
Mu Wuduan was both surprised and delighted, and hurriedly asked, "Why is Sister Rong here? Didn't you say you were going to stay in the capital with the General?"
Unexpectedly, Rongjie's eyes reddened, "My father has already been murdered, how can I stay in the capital now?"
"Murdered?" Mu Wuduan was stunned. She remembered that Sister Rong's father had a very important position in the martial arts world. How could he be so easily murdered?
Sister Rong shook her head and said in a low voice, "This matter is of great importance. I hope you can help me by introducing me to the Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Mu Wuduan quickly took her to see Jin Rulan.
While Jin Rulan was talking to Rongjie, she dismissed everyone else, and no one knew what was happening. However, when the young empress left the tent, she gave an order: "Whoever obtains the head of Yi Mofeng will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold."
Warhorses neighed loudly as dark clouds obscured the sun.
While the two countries were at war, Su Chen kept peeking into the space.
Su Chen: "I feel that the male and female leads are very safe. Look, they are all sitting in the back. Neither of them is wearing armor and going into battle."
Ningwu: "There is also danger in the rear. Who knows what kind of spies are hiding in our own camp? This is the perfect opportunity to assassinate them."
Su Chen: "Little Ningning, can't you conjure up some kind of barrier and then cover both of us?"
Ning Wu glanced at her sideways, "Why don't you transform yourself?"
Su Chen chuckled and said, "I've never cultivated immortality. Besides, I can't even say for sure whether gods and immortals exist in this world."
Ning Wushen's expression darkened, as if he were immersed in some memories.
Su Chen was focused on the safety of the male and female protagonists, but didn't notice Ning Wu's expression.
"Hey, is the female lead about to go into battle?" Su Chen watched as the female lead donned her armor, mounted her black-hoofed horse, and charged out with her long sword in hand.
Seeing that he was about to disappear from sight, Su Chen quickly said, "Quick, zoom in with the camera!"
Ningwu's claws clattered across a bunch of keys, and the camera began to follow the female lead as she sped along.
Everything around her had blurred, leaving only the female protagonist.
This greatly worried Su Chen. "Her horsemanship is poor. What if she falls off and dies while the horse is running like this?"
"Quick, teleport me out! Use the female lead's horse as the teleportation point!" Damn it! If you die, how am I supposed to get home?!
Ningwu dared not be negligent, and its claws rapidly tapped the control panel.
Su Chen felt a sudden lightness in her body, and the next second she felt weightless. When she opened her eyes again, she was already sitting on the back of a horse.
She almost fell off the horse as soon as she sat down, but in the blink of an eye, Su Chen reached out and grabbed the reins, pulling the female lead into his arms to keep her steady. He tightened the reins, the horse's neck jerked back, and the whole horse stood up.
If they fell off now, they would either die or be seriously injured! Su Chen pulled the reins tight with all her might, while the female lead held onto the horse's mane and was pulled along by her to avoid falling off the horse.
Once the warhorse had steadied itself, the female lead roared, "I was luring the snake out of its hole! Who are you to ruin my plans?! What is your relationship with that scoundrel Yi Mofeng?!"
Su Chen: ? ? ? Luring the snake out of its hole? Destroyed in an instant? Yi Mofeng? She just couldn't understand it when she put these things together.
Ning Wu's words exploded in Su Chen's ears: "Su Chen, Su Chen, I just found out that the female lead learned about the villain's plan this morning. It seems that Sister Rong's father died trying to stop the villain's mysterious Jianghu organization, and later, by chance, she learned that the source of that force was the villain's big boss."
[Because that mysterious organization seemed to have infiltrated from the Western Winter Kingdom into the Eastern Autumn Kingdom, the female protagonist had paid attention to it.]
[It's just unknown whether the female lead deduced that this catastrophe between the two countries was a scheme orchestrated by the villainous mastermind over many years.]
[However, this system just adjusted the time and looked at earlier today's events. The way the female lead ordered to take the villain's head suggests she already knows.]
[Su Chen! Su Chen! Did you hear what this system is saying?]
...
"General Su... General Su? You're not dead!" Jin Rulan shouted before she could even see Su Chen's face. "How did you..."
Su Chen didn't have a chance to see the heroine's surprise. Without waiting for her to react, he jumped off his horse and used his lightness skill to leap onto the banner. "Ning Wu, tell me the villain's location!"
Ningwu: [12 o'clock position.]
Su Chen lightly touched the ground with her toes, passing through chariots, horses, and banners... until she saw Yi Mofeng with an indifferent expression.
His eyes remained completely still, as if everything around him was irrelevant to him; the sounds of warhorses, swords, spears, fighting, and roaring seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever.
Only when Su Chen landed in front of him did his eyes flicker with emotion.
"General, you have excellent skills," Yi Mofeng praised with a smile.
Su Chen said in a deep voice with a stern face, "No, no, my little bit of lightness skill is nothing in front of you."
Ning Wu was speechless. [Su Chen, when are you ever going to be polite? Be civilized!]
"Civilization my foot!"
Su Chen glared at Yi Mofeng and shouted, "You're about to die! And you're still praising my skills! Do you think this war is some leisurely affair?"
Yi Mofeng's eyes flickered, and he smiled, saying, "General, are you saying this because you care about me?"
"I'm not concerned about you." Su Chen exhaled a breath of stale air. "I, Su Chen, don't want to see you die in front of me again!"
"Again?" Yi Mofeng frowned, asking in confusion.
Su Chen ignored his question, "Do you think you can't die just because you're good at martial arts?"
She grew angrier as she spoke, and roared at the smiling Yi Mofeng, "Even a fierce tiger can't defeat a pack of wolves! If a hail of arrows were fired, how would you escape?"
Yi Mofeng's smile grew wider and wider. "I... didn't want to live." His tone made it seem as if he were talking about the life or death of someone unrelated.
Su Chen laughed angrily, "Have you finished taking your revenge? Weren't you going to destroy the Western Winter Kingdom and the Eastern Autumn Kingdom?"
[Su Chen! What are you trying to do?] Ning Wu was shocked. Su Chen wasn't really going to destroy both countries for the villain, was he? What about the mission? What about the points?
No way, Su Chen is so rational and heartless, she shouldn't do this for the villain, right? Besides, she's almost saved up enough to go home.
Ning Wu thought nothing, but his heart grew heavier and heavier.
Yi Mofeng raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsurprised that Su Chen knew his plan. "Once the report is complete, even if I die, someone will help me finish it."
Su Chen's eyes reddened. "Don't you want to live and witness the scene of your great revenge being fulfilled?"
Yi Mofeng gave a bitter smile. How could he not want to? But... the dark energy in his chest had long since exhausted his energy, and it was only a matter of time before he was completely drained.
It would be better if I died in this war...
Su Chen naturally saw that Yi Mofeng had the will to die. "I don't know what you've been through in this world, but... it's fine if you want to die. I'll accompany you this time, as if I owe you something."
Yi Mofeng's mind went blank for a moment, "I wonder why the general is so deeply in love with me?"
"Whoosh, whoosh..." The arrows that the female protagonist had laid in ambush all flew off the bowstring at the appointed time.
Su Chen held Yi Mofeng in her arms, blood gushing from her mouth. She smiled and said, "I heard that Zhu Yuchuan can remember his past life. Do you want to jump?"
Yi Mofeng raised his sleeve to wipe the blood from Su Chen's mouth, and asked with a smile, "Together?"
"Together."
