Cheng."Sixth Brother, you couldn't protect your wife while she was alive, and now you still want to keep her after she's gone"Dugu Xiu glared angrily at Dugu Cheng, "Fourth brother, are you also goin..."Does the Queen suspect them"

Son Cheng voiced his confusion and pondered carefully, "The subordinate has always remembered the teachings of the Princess. These people are loyal to the Princess. It is impossible for them to sell the gunpowder formula."

Feng Lingxi shook her head, "I don't doubt them, I just want them to come back to the Yao clan with me."

Sun Cheng frowned. Was the princess conspiring to put them all under house arrest

He still couldn't believe that the princess's mind would change like this.

“With the gunpowder formula leaked this time, I believe there are many eyes watching them secretly. I want to bring them back to Yaozu, give them a makeover, and change their identities so they can live under a new guise. This way, their whereabouts will be erased from the Jianghu, providing them with protection.”

Feng Lingxi looked at Sun Cheng, "Of course, if you are willing to follow me, the Yao Clan welcomes you anytime."

After all, she's a general of Dugu City. Taking him away, if Dugu City knew, he'd probably scold her again.

Feng Lingxi didn't want this to happen, and she wasn't willing for it to happen.

“Your Highness, this subordinate is willing to follow you back to the Yao Clan. However, as I am a soldier under the Fourth Prince’s command, I need his approval to leave. Moreover, once we follow you, it will be considered treason against the Great Yuan Dynasty. These soldiers all have parents, wives, and children. We are worried about…”

Sun Cheng paused, "Since the King lost his memory, he's become a different person. I'm not afraid, but the soldiers... they can't accept this."

"Why are you following me, then And these people, aren't they afraid"

Sun Cheng looked at his confidants behind him, "They and the last general have the same idea. Even if they go through fire and water, they are all the princess's people. In the heart of the last general, there is only the princess, no one else."

It would be a lie to say I wasn't touched. Feng Lingxi was truly grateful to Sun Cheng. When she was researching gunpowder, Du Gucheng assigned him to her, and Sun Cheng never disappointed her.

"Don't worry about this, I will handle it as long as they are willing."

Sun Cheng beamed, "This subordinate awaits the princess' arrival to greet us."

"Don't call me princess anymore, I haven't been one for a long time."

Sun Cheng scratched his head sheepishly and chuckled, "This subordinate is just used to it, I'll change my words in the future."

Although he said it like that, in Sun Cheng's heart, the princess was always the princess, something that would never change throughout his life.

Back at the Prince's Mansion, Huangfu Qingyun learned that she had returned and immediately came to see her. Seeing Feng Lingxi hadn't even had time to change out of her clothes, his gaze was drawn to the bloodstains on her body, and he anxiously asked, "Xier, are you alright"

"I'm fine, just some minor scratches."

Minor injuries were normal for her after she came down the mountain. For Feng Lingxi, they were as frequent as eating and sleeping, and she didn't think much of it. After all, when performing missions, how could she guarantee that she wouldn't be injured at all

Huangpu Qingyun pulled her down to sit, "Let me treat your wounds."

Feng Lingxi looked at the worry in his eyes and smiled, "It's just a skin injury, you don't have to be like this. It'll be fine in a few days."

Huangfu Qingyun looked up, gazing at Feng Lingxi's smile. It was so carefree. Did she know how much it pained him Every time he saw her striving to become stronger, he truly wished he could hide her away, keeping her from going out.

"As a young woman, what if you were left with scars"

"I am a doctor."

Feng Lingxi corrected, "The wound will be treated well in a while and won't leave a scar. By the way, there's something I need you to help me with."

Feng Lingxi let Huangfu Qingyun attend to the wound on her arm, watching him furrow his brow. She opened her mouth and said, "Make arrangements, I want to meet Dugu City."

Huangfu Qingyun's hand froze slightly, she looked up at Feng Lingxi and nodded.

"When you want to meet him, I'll make the arrangements."

"These two days, I still have to go back to Yaozu once."

Feng Ling Xi's words pained Huang Fu Qing Yun, but he endured it and nodded, "Alright, I'll make arrangements for you."

"Qingyun, the gunpowder I previously developed was manufactured at a camp deep in the mountains and destroyed five hundred sets today."

Feng Lingxi's words caused Huangpu Qingyun to be surprised. Looking at Feng Lingxi's worried eyes, "Are you in such a hurry to see Dugu Cheng because of this matter"

"I'm going to talk terms with him. I want him to send people."

Feng Lingxi did not hide anything from Huangfu Qingyun, "Those soldiers who had once researched gunpowder, I want to take them back to the Yaozu. They can't stay here. After what happened today, I'm worried that something similar might happen in other places."

She will do her best to avoid such situations.

I'll arrange that for you, let's see about tomorrow. It's late tonight.

Feng Lingxi responded, "Has Wan'er fallen asleep yet I want to take a look at her later."

"I'll have the wet nurse bring her over later. Wan'er has been very well-behaved today, not crying much at all. She probably knows you're busy."

Speaking of Wan'er, Huangfu Qingyun's eyes were gentle, his voice full of tenderness. He transferred the love he had for Xi'er to Wan'er. As Wan'er's godfather, he would naturally take good care of her, just like his own daughter.

Feng Lingxi knew that Huangfu Qingyun was good to Wan'er, and she also knew that she owed the child.

It's only because she didn't work hard that their mother and daughter wouldn't be able to stand in the Yao clan in the future.

She must build up enough power through her own abilities to protect Wan'er's safety.

She didn't want Wan'er to follow in her footsteps, nor did she want Wan'er to end up like her, forever hunted by the world because of this position as the Sacred Master of the Yao Clan. Since she had taken on this role, she would do it best.

Huangfu Qingyun arranged for Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi to meet the next afternoon. Dugu Cheng was very surprised that Xi'er had taken the initiative to ask to see him. He hurried from Linxi County to the Prince’s Mansion. When he saw Feng Lingxi, whom he hadn't seen in months, his eyes showed both longing and restrained coldness.

Feng Lingxi saw Dugu City, but she didn't show much change in expression.

Perhaps she was afraid of being hurt by his words again, the moment Feng Lingxi saw Dugu City, she tried her best to control her emotions, making herself more mature and composed.

Their eyes met across the room. A brief, charged moment of connection before they both quickly looked away.

It was just like that, both of their hearts held different emotions.

"At last, I have met the Holy Lord."

>

Feng Ling Xi clenched her fists, suppressing the chill in his words, and said coldly, "I hear that Fourth Wangye has wanted to see me for months. Today, I give you the opportunity."

"Perhaps even the Holy Master has something to do with this, wouldn't you say"

After Dugujian finished speaking, Feng Lingxi's eyes turned cold suddenly. This change made Dugujian feel distressed. How much did Xi'er hate him to become like this now

"I have something to ask you. I'm asking the Fourth Prince for someone today, you name your terms."

Feng Lingxi looked at Du Gucheng, "The Fourth Prince should be clear about your current situation."

"You threaten me"

Dugu Cheng narrowed his eyes, knowing her destination yesterday, but he didn't know where she went or what she did. Dugu Cheng realized that the Yao Clan's movements were indeed as elusive as rumored.

The Yao people's whereabouts, if they don't want to be found, are nowhere to be seen.ss Cen feel heartbroken. "How could I bear to punish you If it weren't for you, my life would have been lost."Dugu Yan looked at Feng Lingxi speaking up for herself, thinking about how impulsive he ha...
