Chapter 416: Chapter 416. A Big Worry

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Preposterous, preposterous. Go and call the Victorious General over.

Wan Shengchang stood abruptly and paced back and forth in Yangxin Palace Hall like an ant in a hot pot. The fat on his face trembled as he panicked.

Wan Yulin was summoned into the palace by the eunuch that night and strode into Yangxin Palace Hall.

Imperial Father, is there an urgent matter?

Yu Lin, my son Xiao Hengs unfilial son, is still alive. He is now in Mo City. He has already met with Xiao Hengs old subordinates. He has a woman called Su Qing by his side. That woman can go to heaven and enter the earth. The big killer is from her hand. It is the fathers confidant.

Wan Shengchang sat down on the dragon throne with a tired face. His arrogant eyes were filled with fear as he gripped the handle of the throne tightly. He would not allow anyone to s.n.a.t.c.h away the throne he had just secured.

Imperial Father, what is there to be afraid of in a mere woman?

Wan Yulin cupped his fists at his father in disdain. He didnt put Su Qing in his eyes at all. How could a woman turn the world upside down? Suddenly, he thought of the woman he met at the relay station. Her eyes were arrogant, and she had an outstanding temperament. She met his gaze calmly without a trace of fear in her eyes.

Wan Yulin shook his head. Why would he think of that woman? Perhaps she was the first woman who dared to look him in the eye? Thats why Im so impressed by you.

Dont underestimate this woman. Her medical skills are superb, and she can bring the dead back to life. The killing weapons she makes can blow people away, and her martial arts are strong enough to fight against thousands of troops.

The more Wan Shengchang spoke, the more disdainful Wan Yulins expression became,

Imperial Father, dont boost the morale of others and diminish your prestige.

My son, dont be careless. Xiao Hengs son and this Su Qing have already

Wan Yulin frowned when he heard that. Had he underestimated his enemy? The disdain in his eyes turned serious.

This time, the army I sent to Mo City to take over probably wont return. There hasnt been any news.

Wan Shengchang sighed. He felt that he had made a mistake this time. He had underestimated the enemy and suffered heavy losses.

Father, you said that the explosion in Luo City was also related to that woman and Xiao Hengs son?

Wan Yulin was concerned about this matter because he was the one who received the tip in Luo City and sent troops to rescue them. The information clearly stated that the ones who caused trouble in Luo City were the remnants of the previous dynasty. Why did it become the woman named Su Qing and the son of Xiao Heng?

Yes, Im very sure about that.

Wan Shengchang nodded and answered with certainty.

How did you know?

Wan Yulin didnt believe it. Since Xiao Hengs son had spent so much effort to disguise himself as a remnant of the previous dynasty, how could he let his father know it was him?

You dont have to worry about this. In short, what I said is not wrong. Now that Father has obtained a great killing weapon, he has also obtained a rare genius. When the time is ripe, Father will naturally let you meet. When our great killing weapon is made, we will destroy Xiao Hengs remaining evil.

Wan Shengchang slammed his palm on the table, his gloomy eyes like a venomous snake.

I will send people to a.s.sa.s.sinate the two of them.

Wan Yulin raised his chin with a haughty look. He had countless mighty warriors under him and trained a flying guillotine that was always successful. Previously, the An family was killed by his a.s.sa.s.sination team. No one could escape the a.s.sa.s.sination of the flying guillotine.

Thats good. Its foolproof.

Wan Shengchang agreed with his sons idea. He had asked his son to come over because he wanted to use his flying guillotine. The Wan Clan Army had suffered heavy losses. Before they could ma.s.s-produce the killing weapon, they could not let the Wan Clan Army suffer any more losses.

While the Wan Familys old scoundrels discussed dealing with Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng, Mo City was decorated with lanterns and streamers to celebrate the victory of wiping out the Wan Family Army and the reappearance of the Xiao Familys flag.

Su Qing took out the Drunken Overlord she brewed. Soldiers were all hot-blooded men and should drink this kind of strong wine. The fragrance of roasted whole sheep filled the city, and the celebration party was even more heroic in the snow.

Su Qing sat with the girls and watched Ji Shuisheng accompany Yan s.h.i.+kuan, Cheng Yu, and the generals as they toasted. He was so bold and imposing. This was her man, and he would be the worlds overlord in the future.

Cheng Yu and Yan s.h.i.+kuan suggested that they meet the Young Lords wife together. This was not the first time Yan s.h.i.+kuan had seen Su Qing. From the first meeting, he felt that this woman was different. As expected, he was right.

Cheng Yu approached Su Qings table and respectfully raised his wine gla.s.s.

Young Madam, this old man offers you a toast.

Uncle Cheng, youre too polite.

Su Qing raised her gla.s.s and stood up, clinking gla.s.ses with Cheng Yu. He was very respectful towards her.

Yan s.h.i.+kuan greets the Young Mistress.

Yan s.h.i.+kuan had witnessed Su Qings power and was very impressed by her. He raised his gla.s.s respectfully, and Su Qing smiled as he clinked his gla.s.s with her.

Uncle Yan is too polite.

Lets change to a big bowl!

Su Qing felt the small wine cup was not generous enough and asked Li Shuanger to bring three big bowls over.

Soldiers should drink like this.

Su Qing picked up the wine jar and poured three bowls of wine. She smiled at the two generals.

Yes, you should be so bold.

Cheng Yu laughed out loud. This was Su Qing. She was like this. She liked to drink big bowls of wine and eat big chunks of meat. She was even more courageous than men.

Alright, Uncle Yan will give up his life to accompany you.

Yan s.h.i.+kuan laughed loudly. He liked the Young Mistress boldness. It seemed petty of them to use wine gla.s.ses.

Ji Shuisheng also walked over. He had drunk a lot of wine, and his face flushed red. His eyes were filled with vigor as he stared at his Qinger in high spirits with a doting smile.

Shall we drink together?

Su Qing held the wine jar and looked at Ji Shuisheng with a smile. Her smile was as beautiful as a blooming plum blossom in the cold snow. Her eyes, always cold and distant, were now filled with smiles, s.h.i.+ning like stars in the sky. Her smile was intoxicating.

Alright.

Ji Shuisheng looked at her with no one else in his eyes.

The four of them raised their bowls and toasted. The soldiers could have a good meal today. They drank wine and ate meat in large bowls. It felt like they had returned to the time when General Xiao Heng was alive. It was so lively to celebrate victory.

Everyone was happy and smiling. Only Xiaoying sat there with a depressed expression. It was as if she was trapped on an isolated island. No matter how lively and happy the outside world was, it could not affect her.

Xiaoying, whats wrong?

Su Qing noticed Xiaoyings condition and sat down to ask her with concern.

Im fine. Im just a little tired.

Xiaoying shook her head and forced a smile at Sister Su Qing.

Then go back and rest early!

Su Qing advised Xiaoying to go back first. G.o.dmothers death was too much of a blow to Xiaoying. She looked thin, but her already big eyes were even bigger now. The sadness and hesitation in her eyes made ones heart ache.

Alright, 111 go back first.

Xiaoying couldnt sit still either. She stood up and forced a smile.

Sister Su Qing, you guys have fun.

She left after saying that. Her lonely back and slow, mechanical footsteps made Su Qing frown. Something was wrong with Xiaoying.

Qiu Yongkang was despicable; he wanted to make Xiaoying carry a heavy psychological burden before he left. When she catches him, she will cut him into pieces.

Yan s.h.i.+kuan left behind a portion of his troops to a.s.sist Mo City while the rest were taken back. Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing returned to Jings.h.i.+ Dao as they still had important matters..
