know his identity and appearance. Staying by their side would indeed be safer."You wouldn't even eat his jealousy, would you"Feng Lingxi asked, voicing the confusion in her heart. Du Gu Cheng raised a...Dugu Cheng watched her expression change suddenly, and he didn't know what to say. He found that during the time he was away, Xi'er seemed to have gone through a lot that he didn't know about. Seeing her like this, he felt very sorry for her.

"Alright, let's not dwell on that. Don't you want to go find the sulfur stone This king will accompany you."

"Aren't you busy tomorrow I'll have Xiao Li accompany me instead. You can lead the troops to help Dugu Xiu. After all, it's still our emperor's territory, and those soldiers are all subjects of the Great Yuan Dynasty. We should save them if we can."

"How could I let Xiaoli accompany you I'm not at ease."

Dugu Cheng heard that she didn't want him to accompany her, his face darkened. How could he rest assured to go into battle when she was like this

Feng Lingxi walked up to him, looking into his worried eyes, and took his hand. "Come with me," she said.

Dugu Cheng looked at Xi'er pulling his hand, the discontent in his heart instantly vanished. She led him to the gunpowder storage room and looked at the gunpowder storage room inside the cave. The layout inside was like a large treasure vault, and the amount of gunpowder made Dugu Cheng's eyes widen.

"This is the gunpowder I developed after you left. I've given the formula to General Sun. We now have about a thousand units of gunpowder. These were originally intended for dealing with the Galo country, but now that Galo and Dukgol are fighting, they're in storage."

Feng Lingxi held the gunpowder and explained to Dugu City, "Pull out this fuse and throw it in the designated direction, and it will create a powerful explosion. If you throw it down on an ambush of enemies, we can wipe them out without lifting a finger."

Dugu Cheng looked at the gunpowder in her hand unbelievably, "Is this the weapon you've been making these past few days"

No wonder when he returned, he found her different. Yexi told him that the princess had changed drastically, making the soldiers admire her greatly. He didn't quite understand what she meant at the time, but now he did. It was Xier's martial prowess that made them submit.

With such weapons, how could they not surrender

Besides gunpowder, there were also human-shaped kites. These could be ridden to fly out and reach enemy camps, setting fire to their supplies with ease. They could accomplish these tasks without any harm coming to themselves and return safely.

Feng Lingxi took Dugu Cheng to look at the kite, looking at Dugu Cheng, "Want to try"

Dugu Cheng nodded, saw Feng Lingxi pick it up, and took him out to stand above the valley. He held onto Feng Lingxi and ran forward. As Dugu Cheng looked at the ten-meter-high valley, a chill ran down his spine, but Feng Lingxi laughed.

"Don't be afraid, you won't be afraid in a while."

The kite flew out, Dugu City watched them fly up, under Xi'er's control, flying freely.

"Xier, how do you know so much This kite is really amazing."

Gunpowder is more powerful.

Feng Lingxi glanced at him, a radiant smile playing on her lips. If she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, there were even more things she could have done.

"Xier, what if we used this kite to throw gunpowder at the army below Wouldn't that allow us to kill all of the enemy without losing a single soldier"

Feng Lingxi hummed in response, then fell silent.

What frightened her was this very thought: if she were to actually kill so many people with gunpowder, she would regret ever having invented it.

"Xier, aren't you happy"

Dugu Cheng asked out the doubts in his heart, "I can feel that after I came back, you weren't happy at all. Even when you smile, it's a very reluctant kind. Don't you have something on your mind Tell me, if I can help you, I will definitely help you."

"There are some things I don't quite understand. I need a little more time to think about it."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her expression serious. "Also, I hope that no matter what I do, you will believe in me. Don't doubt me, don't question me, okay"

The gunpowder she made didn't exist in this world. She could explain her medical skills as being taught by her master, but what about this gunpowder She didn't know how to explain it to him. She also knew that Duguo City would definitely be curious about how she did it.

獨孤城看著她眸中懇求的眼神，點點頭，“本王信你。”

Feng Lingxi smiled gently at him, leading him back to the ground of the valley.

"There's one more thing. Can you give me back Zi Xing"

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, Xiao Li had always been urging her to return the Zixing. Although she didn't know if Zixing could save her life, seeing Xiao Li so insistent, she didn't want to disappoint her.

Dugu City took the purple star from his neck and put it on her, "Xi'er, this was always yours. If you want to take it back, this king will give it to you."

"It was Xiao Li who made me wear this. She said, Purple Star staying by my side might save my life, and she wouldn't stop nagging me until I brought it back."

Feng Lingxi didn't hide anything from Dugu City. To her, Zixing was the same to everyone, staying by her side was like keeping a bomb, ready to explode at any time, threatening her life.

"Then just take it, no matter what, this is from your mother."

Feng Lingxi nodded, a smile appearing on her face. To have him trust her like this, without questioning or suspicion, was truly wonderful.

"Xier."

Dugu Cheng held her hand and said softly, "Tomorrow I will go to help Dugu Xiu retreat the enemy. You stay at home and wait for me to come back, okay"

"Why don't you call yourself 'Your Majesty'"

Feng Lingxi looked up at him, Dugu Cheng smiled indulgently, "Don't want to Feeling estranged, eh Xi’er is my wife. I think, one day if I am not the Prince, Xi’er and I could be like ordinary couples. It's Xi'er, can you call me husband once just for me to hear”

"Husband."

Wind Lingxi satisfied him, looking at the smile on his face, her heart was full of happiness.

"My Lady."

Duguxing shouted softly, taking her hand. The happiness in his heart was overflowing. He had never felt this way when his father bestowed upon him the title of king. Looking at Xi'er, he felt content.

"Tomorrow, I will still go to Shí Lǐ Pō. With you going out to fight the enemy, both Galo and Dugu Xiu won't have time to watch me. I plan to take Sun Deputy General with me to bring back the sulfur stones. They don't know much about sulfur stones, so I'm afraid they might mistake ordinary stones for sulfur stones. After all, a single stone is so heavy, it takes manpower to haul it back."

“This stretch of road from Shí Lǐ Pō to Xī County is a bit far, I’m not comfortable letting you go alone. So how about this, I’ll have Yè Xī accompany you”

"No, Ye Xi is your personal guard. I wouldn't feel safe without him. Besides, Xiao Li and General Sun are protecting me, so you don't have to worry."

Feng Lingxi refused Dugu City's kindness. Ye Xi was not there, and if Dugu City had an accident, she would regret it for the rest of her life. Dugu City was now the spiritual support of 500,000 troops. She couldn't take Ye Xi away from him.

"Little Li doesn't know martial arts, General Sun will protect you alone, but I'm still not at ease."

"Xiao Li is good at martial arts, she's pretty skilled, and although I'm not as good as you, don't worry, my acupuncture needles aren't embroidery needles. I'll be fine."think she's very special.""If the Princess trusts her this much, then she must be a good girl. Perhaps I'm overthinking things."Xiao Li glanced at the Princess. It was really strange. Why would the Pr...
