Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Wan Family Army hurriedly accepted the challenge. However, their movements were slow because their hands and feet were frostbitten. In addition, they hadn’t eaten a mouthful of warm food for three days. They couldn’t even hold their weapons. They couldn’t even stand properly, let alone fight.
Su Qing’s Xiao Family’s Army was fed well and in a warm house. Now that they were out to fight, they were stretching their muscles. Compared to the Wan Family’s Army, they were like tigers descending from the mountain.
The Xiao Family Army killed the rest of the Wan Family Army.
They couldn’t withstand Su Qing’s power. On the official road leading to the capital, troops were already lying in ambush. When they saw the Wan Family Army fleeing, they immediately killed them. The Wan Family Army found out in despair that they were fine when they came, but they could not return.
On this side, Su Qing wiped out the arrogant Wan Clan Army and seized weapons, cotton clothes, and warhorses to replenish her troops.
The Xiao Family Army of Mo City was now strong, unlike the initial situation where they couldn’t get anything they wanted.
Cheng Yu was overjoyed. This battle had been fought to his heart’s content, and he had vented all the frustration suppressed in his heart for more than ten years.
He admired the future Young Master’s wife too much. She was simply a fairy sent by the heavens to revive the Xiao family’s army and assist the Young Master. No, it couldn’t be said that she was a fairy. She was simply a god who had descended to the mortal world. That strength, decisiveness in killing on the battlefield, that strategy and tactics that were more useful than military books, and the medical skills to revive the dead. She could create and design all kinds of advanced weapons…
Cheng Yu felt that there was nothing that their Young Master’s wife didn’t know. What was she if she wasn’t a god descended to the mortal world? How could a person be omnipotent?
On one side, Su Qing led the Xiao Family Army to victory. On the other side, Ji Shuisheng rushed to Jingshi Dao with the commander’s seal. When Yan Shikuan saw the commander’s seal, he immediately gathered his troops. He took the lead and knelt on one knee, cupped his fists, and shouted,
“Subordinate Yan Shikuan leads the Xiao Family Army to welcome Young Lord.”
“Welcome, Young Master.”
The soldiers’ shouts shook the heavens. As he looked at the Xiao family’s army that his father had single-handedly trained, he couldn’t help but tear up. He clenched his fists and suppressed the excitement in his heart. With the imposing manner that a young master should have, his voice from his dantian was domineering and sonorous.
“Everyone, there’s no need to be so polite. My father created the Xiao Family Army to protect the commoners and the Great Xia Kingdom’s vast territory. The traitor Wan Shengchang rebelled, killed the Great Xia Emperor, and harmed the loyal people. He is a sinner to the country and the people. I have decided to inherit my father’s last wish to eliminate evil for the country and the people and create a peaceful and prosperous world.”
“This subordinate is willing to follow the young lord and avenge the old general, avenge the world, and create a peaceful world.”
Yan Shikuan couldn’t help but feel his blood boil. It was as if he could see the General’s past glory in Ji Shuisheng. With such a young master, the General would take revenge and eliminate the evil of the ten thousand families.
“This subordinate is willing to follow Young Master…”
Thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, their morale soaring.
Ji Shuisheng saw the morale had been raised, so he helped Yan Shikuan with both hands.
“Alright, Uncle Yan. Now that Mo City is in trouble, please lead your troops to support us.”
“Your subordinate obeys.”
Yan Shikuan cupped his fists to receive the order. He turned around and ordered the soldiers with a murderous aura,
“Wan Shengchang has sent troops to attack Mo City. Soldiers, let’s make sure he doesn’t return.”
“There’s no return; there’s no return. Kill, kill, kill…”
The battle cries on the training ground was like thunder. The soldiers raised their weapons high, their eyes determined, and their voices were like a bell.
Ji Shuisheng looked at them excitedly. Such an army would be invincible and victorious.
After the short oath ceremony ended, Yan Shikuan immediately mobilized his troops. He had endured humiliation and waited for this day for more than ten years. Now, his blood was boiling. His heart to avenge General Xiao Heng was incomparably firm. His heart to follow the young Master and make contributions was incomparably strong. His heart to save the people was incomparably firm…
Ji Shuisheng and Yan Shikuan rushed to Mo City. By the time they arrived, they heard the sound of fighting. Su Qing rode on her horse and left the corpses of thousands of soldiers everywhere she passed. Her heroic bearing and domineering aura made Yan Shikuan feel convinced. The heavens sent this fiancee to assist him.
Ji Shuisheng’s eyes were filled with love as he looked at Su Qing, riding her horse to kill. His Qing’er had already cleaned up the Wan Family Army, so he was useless to her.
Su Qing felt a burning gaze on her. She put her spear on her back and reined in her horse’s reins. She looked back and saw Ji Shuisheng leading a large group of people to support her from afar. He only had herself in his eyes and was filled with burning love.
Su Qing tightened the horse’s reins, and the front hooves of the Big Black Horse let out a pitter-patter sound. Su Qing raised the long spear and smiled brightly at Ji Shuisheng.
Ji Shuisheng pressed his legs against the horse’s belly and rushed to Su Qing’s side. He smiled as he watched her act arrogantly. She was his pride. He was willing to conquer the land with her and use the land as a betrothal gift to marry Qing’er as his only wife in this life.
Cheng Yu was excited when he saw Yan Shikuan following the young Master. He rode over to greet him with a fist strike and said to Yan Shikuan with a smile,
“Welcome back.”
“Brother, look at this.”
Yan Shikuan pointed to the army’s flag as he looked at Cheng Yu eagerly.
Cheng Yu raised his head and looked at the Xiao Family Army’s flag waving in the wind. His blood boiled as if he could see General Xiao Heng riding on his warhorse, looking at him with a mighty and domineering expression.
Cheng Yu’s tears flowed freely as he quickly jumped off his horse and knelt on one knee, cupping his fists towards the Xiao Family Army’s flag:
“Your subordinate Cheng Yu is willing to follow Young Lord to the death and help Young Lord achieve great things. 1 will capture that old thief Wan Shengchang and avenge General.”
“This subordinate is willing to follow the young lord to the death and capture that old thief Wan Shengchang to avenge the general.”
The soldiers raised their weapons and shouted in unison. Yan Shikuan and his elder brother knelt to the flag. The flag was the soul of the army. He had hidden the flag of the Xiao Family Army for more than ten years. Today, he could finally see the light again.
Cheng Yu invited Yan Shikuan to Mo City. When he entered the government office, Yan Shikuan knelt on one knee and cupped his fists in apology.
“Old brother, 1 know you have been living a difficult life these years, but 1 have never dared to lend you a helping hand. Please forgive me.”
Yan Shikuan pretended to be docile and obedient to the court to protect the Xiao Family Army. He even joined the crusade against General Xiao. His heart was bleeding at that moment, and he wanted to kill himself.
However, this was the military order given by the General before he left. He told him that if anything happened to him, he would ask Yan Shikuan to write a letter of crusade against his crimes. He would also help him draft the contents of a campaign letter to protect the Xiao Family Army. If Yan Shikuan disagreed, Xiao Heng would beg him for his life.
These were the secrets that Yan Shikuan had kept in his heart. He had been living a hard life keeping this secret. His former brothers had called him a traitor and even tried to assassinate him several times. Yan Shikuan had silently endured all of this, waiting for the young Master to come out and avenge General Xiao Heng and revive the Xiao Family Army.
“Shi Kuan, big brother has wronged you in the past. Young Master has already told me about how you endured humiliation to protect the Xiao family army.”
Cheng Yu sighed. It was easy to be brave but challenging to endure humiliation. Yan Shikuan must have had a hard time these years.
Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing gathered the Xiao Family Army. Wan Shengchang, far away in the capital, secretly summoned a person and listened to his words with a gloomy expression. The more he heard, the more frightened he became. The more he listened, the more he could not sit still on the dragon throne..
