Chapter 402 Battlefield
Shen Yao slowed her pace, trying to think of what to give as a reward.
Jiang Ming slowed his pace and said with a hint of disappointment, "If it's too difficult, then forget it."
"It's really a difficult situation." Shen Yao tried to negotiate with him: "What I want to give you doesn't exist in this world. Can we owe you for now?"
Jiang Ming felt heartbroken. He didn't know what was going on in her head. Sometimes she understood him very well, and other times she was completely oblivious to his feelings.
"Then I'll leave it as an obligation."
Let him owe us money a few more times, until we've saved enough, then we'll go and collect the debt together.
The Peach Pavilion was built on a huge peach tree.
This peach tree was almost dead after it was attacked by bloodworms.
It was Tu Xiaoxiao who used the power of the Wood Spirit Source to revive it.
Later, the True God Sect built a peach pavilion in the tree.
The Peach Pavilion is designed according to the growth pattern of peach trees, with each private room built on a wide branch.
The entire Peach Blossom Pavilion is surrounded by peach blossoms, and the scenery inside and outside the pavilion is beautiful.
The dishes in the private room were served quickly: peach blossom wine, peach blossom tea, and peach juice. Shen Yao chose the peach juice.
They still need to go back to the wounded camp in the afternoon to treat the wounded, so it's best not to drink alcohol.
Feng Qing smelled the aroma of the dishes and smacked her lips, making everyone laugh.
Shen Yao fed her some peach juice, took out the cradle she carried with her, put her in the cradle, and let her play by herself.
Feng Qing is so easy to take care of; she never cries or fusses, and falls asleep after playing for a little while.
As expected of a born Celestial Emperor baby, he makes his parents' lives much easier.
After dinner, Jiang Ming returned to Chongcheng, Huo Die took Feng Qing back to the city lord's mansion, and Shen Yao and the two peach blossoms returned to the wounded camp to continue treating the wounded.
It has to be said, having power and influence is truly appealing.
After Jiang Ming returned to Chongcheng, he quickly mobilized three teams of pharmacists to support the wounded camp, greatly accelerating the treatment process.
In the early hours of the night, most of the wounded soldiers in the camp had recovered, and the healed cultivators returned to the front lines one after another.
The soldiers will not rest until evil practices are eradicated.
The night in Licheng is very quiet.
The fragrance of peach blossoms is stronger at night.
Strolling through the quiet alleyways, Shen Yao made a decision: "If all the wounded can be healed within three days, then we'll attack the city in three days."
With greater ability comes greater responsibility.
Fate made them strong, so that they would protect the common people.
Those with great abilities may bring disaster to the world or only care about their own pleasure, but their abilities will eventually be taken back by Heaven.
"Let Jiang Ming take Qing'er to Chongcheng tomorrow. We need to get down to business."
Knowing that Feng Yu was reluctant to part with his daughter, she took his hand, intertwined their fingers, and comforted him with gentle words: "Once we get rid of the evil cultivators and kill the Blood Demon, we will take our daughter back to the Feng family to visit your elders and relatives."
“Okay.” Moonlight streamed down the alley, and Feng Yu’s voice was incredibly soft and sweet: “Yan Zhou, you don’t need to worry about whether I want to go back to the Feng family. I’ve said it before, wherever you are, that’s my home.”
They smiled at each other, their sweet affection mingling with the moonlight, dazzlingly real.
It caught Tu Xiaoxiao's eye.
He never gets jealous for no reason, but he does get envious and jealous sometimes.
The fox tail stealthily wrapped around Shen Yao's waist.
Feeling a warm sensation around her waist, Shen Yao reached out her left hand, grabbed Tu Xiaoxiao's hand, and tugged at him.
Tu Xiaoxiao, wagging her tail, walked forward naturally to her side.
The slight sour feeling vanished instantly; the idea of a fairy couple was simply nonexistent.
His wife's beauty dazzled him.
Low desires mean easy satisfaction.
Returning to Honey Garden under the moonlight, Tu Xiaoxiao refused to let go of the fox tail wrapped around her waist.
"Yaoyao, let me stay with you tonight. I really want to be with you tonight."
Thinking of the discrimination he had suffered during the day, and considering the grievances he might have endured at the border over the years, Shen Yao agreed to his request.
The lamp at the foot of the bed was dimly lit. Tu Xiaoxiao, realizing she had taken the love potion, came over and hugged her.
He really just wanted to give her a good hug.
Her fair arms encircled her slender waist, and her warm hands couldn't help but caress her curves.
Tu Xiaoxiao pressed her nose against the back of Shen Yao's neck, inhaling the pleasant scent of primrose on her skin, and gently touched her shoulder with her soft lips, expressing her love.
"Yaoyao, I was so touched by how you protected me today."
She cared for him so much that he couldn't bear to sacrifice himself.
But one day, he will have to return the Soul Pearl.
He felt terrible; he was both afraid of death and wanted to be with her forever.
Shen Yao rubbed his head with her other hand: "I'm sorry you've had to go through all this. I only found out today how difficult it was for you in the Immortal Clan. I'm sorry, I'll take better care of you in the future."
He kissed her cheek with his soft lips: "Don't blame yourself. I've become the Demon Emperor. What's there to feel aggrieved about?"
Many cultivators endure unimaginable hardships, yet they may not even be able to advance a single rank.
In just over a decade, he rose from Demon Ancestor to Demon Emperor, advancing six major ranks in a row—an unprecedented stroke of luck.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Shen Yao turned over, snuggled into his arms, and hugged him tightly: "Let's go to the wounded camp early tomorrow, go to sleep."
Early the next morning, Feng Yu and Shen Yao returned to the Chongcheng branch and handed Feng Qing over to Jiang Ming.
They also brought back the two pharmacists, Lian Yi and Xu Qin, to the branch sect.
Fate is so unpredictable.
To some extent, Feng Yu and Jiang Ming are rivals in love.
Even without the threat of the Blood Demon, the overly united aristocratic families of the Immortal Clan and the sects led by the True God Sect would inevitably become mortal enemies.
The Feng family and the True God Sect will inevitably clash sooner or later.
Feng Yu and Jiang Ming should also be locked in a life-or-death struggle.
But now they've become a family.
Gratitude and enmity both stem from shared love.
By the arrangement of fate, former enemies have become trusted friends and relatives.
Over the years, Feng Yu had come to trust Jiang Ming deeply. When she entrusted her daughter to him, she simply handed her over without giving him any further instructions.
The stay-at-home dad enjoys a very high level of credibility in the family.
Just look at Shi Bao, and you'll know that letting him take care of the child is definitely the right choice.
They were raised to be successful.
For the next three days, no one in the wounded camp targeted Tu Xiaoxiao again.
Their work progressed smoothly, and they cleared the West Street wound camp within the estimated timeframe.
That afternoon, Zhou Han, the city lord of Licheng, summoned the city's key staff members to a farewell banquet for them.
It wasn't too long-winded, nor was it overly sentimental.
Huo Die and Chu Yun rode together on a golden wheel, while Shen Yao, Feng Yu, and Tu Xiaoxiao rode together on a jade scroll, chasing the sunset towards the border battlefield.
When Emperor Huo arrived at the military camp with his two emperor-level sons-in-law and his immortal daughter, the soldiers' morale soared.
He wished he could rush out of the forbidden realm overnight and kill his way there.
There are no Emperor-level cultivators in the evil cultivators' territory yet, so victory in the battle is assured and there is no suspense.
Many cultivators were so excited that they didn't sleep all night, waiting for dawn to follow Huo Xiandi in his fiery charge that could kill the bloodworms.
In the training room, the border guards of Licheng explained the situation and listened to Huo Die's arrangements.
Huo Die planted several small flags on the sand table: "Zhong Xianzu, you and the two immortal saints Hong Gui and Yan An will stay and guard the forbidden area."
"Yunhe, Yanzhou, you two follow me to the front lines and clear out the bloodworms."
"Yun'er, stay close to Xiao Xiao and kill all the evil cultivators within the area of the Heavenly Flame Talisman I've set up."
"The rest will be arranged by Zhou Xianzu. It will also be hard for Zhou Xianzu to coordinate how many soldiers to select for each team."
The commander, Zhou Liang, is the cousin of Zhou Han, the city lord of Licheng. Like his cousin, he was directly dispatched by the True God Sect to guard Licheng.
He quickly arranged the remaining matters.
Everything is ready; we just need to wait for the day and month to change, then charge into battle and slaughter the city.
