After Zhao Feng surrendered, Xiao Chen also asked Sikong Ming to warn Imperial Concubine Qu. Although Xiao Chen was not afraid of her, as the saying goes, "Don't be afraid of thieves, but be afraid of thieves." It was not a good thing to have someone in the imperial capital always thinking about how to kill him.
What's more, Xiao Chen planned to let his parents live in the Moonless Empire in the future. Therefore, Xiao Chen would never allow any potential danger in the Moonless Empire, especially in the imperial capital.
This time, Sikong Ming's warning was already Xiao Chen giving Imperial Concubine Qu a chance. If she still could not let go of the hatred in her heart, then Xiao Chen could only kill her. Anyway, with Xiao Chen's means, it was not difficult to kill Imperial Concubine Qu.
With Sikong Ming's departure, Imperial Concubine Qu struggled in her heart. After a while, Imperial Concubine Qu leaned on the chair with a pale face. From her eyes, there was no longer any hatred, only deep despair and powerlessness.
Although she only exchanged a few words with Sikong Ming, Imperial Concubine Qu also understood that she could no longer pose any threat to Xiao Chen. Today's conversation was also Xiao Chen's last warning to her. If she still did not let go, then Xiao Chen could only kill her.
"Son, mother is useless." Leaning on the chair, Imperial Concubine Qu's eyes had two lines of tears as she muttered to herself.
On the second day after Sikong Ming and Imperial Concubine Qu's conversation, Imperial Concubine Qu asked Chu Mu to guard her son's coffin. She would never step out of the Fifth Prince's mausoleum again.
Chu Mu did not care about Imperial Concubine Qu's request at all. After all, Chu Mu had countless women in the harem. If Imperial Concubine Qu wanted to leave, then let her go.
At the same time, Xiao Chen, who was in Zhenshan City, also received the news. Xiao Chen was very satisfied with Imperial Concubine Qu's decision. This was equivalent to Imperial Concubine Qu's answer to Xiao Chen.
He no longer cared about Imperial Concubine Qu and had complete control of the Mountain Suppressing Army. Zhao Feng was also very smart. Ever since he joined Chu Wuming, he had indeed listened to everything Chu Wuming said.
For the time being, he had no plans to touch the other three armies. Now that he had subdued the Mountain Subduing Army, everything else could only be done slowly.
In Zhenshan City, Xiao Chen's life was peaceful and stable. At the same time, Xiao Chen's cultivation was also improving steadily. Xiao Chen didn't have to worry about cultivation resources at all. As long as he needed it, Chu Wuming would find it for Xiao Chen.
With the support of so many cultivation resources, Xiao Chen's cultivation reached the peak of the Dao Querying Realm in just one month. He was not far from breaking through to the Small Success Dao Querying Realm.
It had only been less than two months since Xiao Chen had broken through to the Dao Querying Realm, but he had already touched the threshold of the initial Dao Querying Realm. Such speed was not only because of Xiao Chen's heaven-defying talent, but also because of the cultivation resources provided by Chu Wuming.
Such a fast cultivation speed was enough to make anyone gasp in amazement. Xiao Chen also deeply understood the importance of a cultivation environment and resources to a warrior.
It was no exaggeration to say that Xiao Chen's cultivation speed would definitely not be so fast in the Heavenly Chen Continent. This was because many of the cultivation resources Xiao Chen had used during this period of time were never available in the Heavenly Chen Continent.
Unknowingly, one and a half months had passed in Zhenshan City. On this day, Chu Wuming was preparing to return to the Imperial Capital. This was because he had reached the time to break through to the Dao Querying Realm. He was going to return to the Imperial Capital and enter the Dao Path to break through to the Dao Querying Realm.
The day before he left, Chu Wuming called Zhao Feng to his residence. At the same time, Xiao Chen was also present. Chu Wuming said with a smile as he looked at Zhao Feng.
"Tomorrow, I will return to the Imperial Capital to break through to the Dao Querying Realm. During my absence, General Zhao will listen to Brother Xiao Chen's arrangements. Remember, Brother Xiao Chen's words are equivalent to my words. There is no need to report to me."
Chu Wuming was going to leave for a period of time and handed over all authority to Xiao Chen without reservation. Hearing his words, Zhao Feng respectfully nodded. "I will follow Your Highness' orders."
After giving instructions, Chu Wuming returned to the Imperial Capital the next day. Xiao Chen did not think too much about Chu Wuming's departure. After all, Chu Wuming would not be gone for a long time. At least a few days, at most half a month, Chu Wuming would return.
Just like before, he spent every day cultivating. Three days passed in a row. However, on this day, Zhao Feng suddenly came to visit.
Hearing that Zhao Feng was looking for him, Xiao Chen asked someone to bring him in. Zhao Feng quickly strode into the courtyard. He first bowed respectfully to Xiao Chen, then spoke in a deep voice.
"Young Master Xiao Chen, according to our scouts, the Heavenly Wolf Empire has made some strange movements. They probably want to fight with us."
Over the past few days, the Heavenly Wolf Empire had stationed four hundred thousand soldiers at Hulao Pass. They had split into four groups and were advancing. After receiving this news, Zhao Feng immediately came to report it to Xiao Chen.
Zhao Feng was not surprised by the Heavenly Wolf Empire's actions. After all, both sides faced off against Hulao Pass. Small-scale battles like this happened from time to time. Sometimes, the Moonless Empire would take the initiative to attack, while other times, the Heavenly Wolf Empire would take the initiative to attack.
Of course, there was no clear winner or loser in these battles. Both sides were just probing each other.
If it was in the past, Zhao Feng obviously would not have come to report such a matter. However, now that he had joined Chu Wuming, Zhao Feng naturally could not act on his own.
Hearing Zhao Feng's words, Xiao Chen also knew that such situations happened from time to time at Hulao Pass, so he did not pay too much attention to it. "General Zhao, act according to procedure. Immediately."
The Moonless Empire naturally had a plan to deal with the Heavenly Wolf Empire's attack. First, the four armies would report the situation to the Imperial Capital. After Chu Mu gave the order, the four armies could move out to meet the enemy.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Zhao Feng respectfully nodded his head. Immediately after, the four armies of Hulao Pass all reported the Heavenly Wolf Empire's attack to the Imperial Capital. Soon, Chu Mu's order came down for the four armies to move out to meet the enemy.
Chu Mu was already used to such small-scale battles, so he did not care at all. However, without Chu Mu's order, Zhao Feng and the others had no right to mobilize the troops. Therefore, according to the rules, they had to report the matter to Chu Mu.
After receiving Chu Mu's order, Zhao Feng immediately ordered a general of the Mountain Suppressing Army to lead a hundred thousand soldiers out of Mountain Suppressing City and rush to the frontlines to meet the Heavenly Wolf Empire.
This kind of battle was as simple as eating a meal for Zhao Feng. As the Mountain Suppressing Army left the city to meet the enemy, Xiao Chen, who was in the city, suddenly had the urge to go to the frontlines and personally witness the battle between the Moonless Empire and the Heavenly Wolf Empire.
