"Hmph, hmph." Ling Jian ignored her and walked towards his tent.
"What are you snorting for? Overestimating yourself to actually think of assassinating the Sect Master of Above Heavens! Do you really think that you are the number one assassin? King of Bragging! " Xiao YouHan looked at his back and said, "You better be prepared. Tie a rope around your body so that it will be easier for me to save you."
"Meng FanYun?" Ling Jian did not turn back. He stood straight with his back facing her, "He is just a peak Xiantian! If I want to kill him, a single sword is more than enough! "Ling Jian did not turn back and walked into his tent.
For some reason, Xiao YouHan did not retort after hearing his words. She could feel that although Ling Jian's tone was calm when he said those words, there was a strong confidence in his words!
Hearing his words and looking at his back, a thought suddenly surfaced in Xiao YouHan's mind. Perhaps he can really kill Meng FanYun? How is that possible!
Thinking of this, she could not help but scold herself for indulging in fantasy. What kind of person was Meng FanYun? He was the Sect Master of Above Heavens! He was one of the top five experts in the entire pugilistic world! There were only a few people like Meng FanYun in the entire world!
Who was this coffin face in front of her? He was only one of Ling Tian's subordinates. Furthermore, he was so young. How was it possible for him to kill Meng FanYun? Wasn't that a joke?
"King of Bragging, you must be dreaming." Xiao YouHan muttered softly but did not dare to raise her voice. She suddenly thought of something. If this person went to kill Meng FanYun, what if he was killed on the spot? Thinking of this, she felt a wave of guilt in her heart. After all, it was because of her that he received such a dangerous mission!
"No matter what, I cannot let him die!" Xiao YouHan clenched her fists tightly. "Regardless of whether it is to meet the First Pavilion Head or not, I cannot let him die because of me!"
Ling Tian rested comfortably on Ling Chen's thighs as he listened to Li Xue's arrangements.
"... A total of 55 people. Apart from the four who were sent to the north, south, east and west, and the two who were injured and Ling Fifty were sent to the Courtyard, 15 people were left in Sky Bearing to ensure the safety of the Imperial Palace and the Ling family. The intelligence system in the southeast has been fully activated. The forces under the Crystal Pavilion have also gone all out to collect all practical information. Everything is under control! "
"As for Tamago, I've already arranged for an additional 100,000 soldiers to be sent to the County of Yan. We've also begun to transport the supplies, ensuring that the supplies will continue to flow without any worries. After all, this could be a real battle in the truest sense. Tamago's army had already retreated five miles and was quickly deploying their troops. But before they understand our intentions, I believe that even if they were given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to take the initiative. "
"At the border of the Mourning Soul Mountain, we have also increased our troops by a hundred thousand. The general of Tamago, XiMen Sa, is also preparing for battle. Naturally, he wouldn't make any rash moves. "
"With Advisor Meng in charge of the entire situation, he is able to deploy his troops without any loopholes. From what I can see, there isn't a single place where an accident could happen." After Li Xue finished her report, she gave her evaluation with confidence.
At such a time, Ling Tian had already deployed all of his main forces to the southeast to deal a blow to Above Heavens. But the more he did so, the more serious Tamago would be. If Tamago were to suddenly deploy their troops at such a time, it would be hard to avoid the danger of being attacked from both sides. Even with Ling Tian's current strength, he might not be able to handle it.
Furthermore, Tamago's three souls and seven spirits had just been killed by Ling Tian. If Yu ManLou were to send out his troops in anger, it would be within reason.
Thus, Li Xue adopted a bold strategy and decided to strike first to gain the upper hand. Before the Yu Family made a move, she had already sent more troops to her side. At the same time, she had also sent over a steady stream of supplies to create a tense atmosphere. In this way, Tamago would definitely think that the Divine Prefecture Empire under the Ling family was preparing for a large scale military operation. Under such suspicions, they wouldn't make any rash moves.
A weak country didn't have diplomacy. Only a strong country could talk about diplomacy. As long as you were strong enough, anyone who wanted to start a conflict with you would have to think twice!
The true goal of Li Xue's plan was to buy two months of time. At most, two months would be enough. At that time, even if Tamago were to react, it would be too late!
"En, that's right. But I still have to remind you of something. " Ling Tian thought for a moment before saying, "Above Heavens has controlled the Xiao family for many years. It can be said that the Xiao family is completely under their control. Our main goal is to take care of the Xiao family. As for eliminating Above Heavens, that isn't a difficult matter. But our only concern is that if Above Heavens knows that they have lost their advantage, it won't be difficult for them to bury the Xiao family with them. If the Xiao family dies in the end, it will be meaningless even if we wipe out everyone in Above Heavens. In fact, it might even lead to a large scale civil unrest. After all, the Xiao family and Above Heavens have a huge influence in the Southeast. We have to preserve the Xiao family to stabilize the hearts of the people. "
"What do you think we should do?" Li Xue frowned and said, "I once considered whether we should bring them out first. But if we do that, no matter how careful we are, we will definitely cause a huge commotion and alert the enemy. Although we don't place a power like Above Heavens in our eyes, if they hide in the pugilistic world and wait for an opportunity to take revenge, it will be a huge headache. Shouldn't we choose the lesser of two evils?! "
"I understand your concerns. Just as you said, we should choose the lesser of two evils! How about this, before we take action, we should protect the important members of the Xiao family. Arrange for people to be in charge of this matter. As for the others … "Ling Tian pondered for a moment before replying," We can only leave it to the heavens. "
"Alright!" On this point, Li Xue, who was an outsider, was much more decisive than Ling Tian. To her, even if the Xiao family was wiped out, there was no point for her to sympathize with them! She naturally didn't care about how many people from the Xiao family would die.
She was very clear who the important members of the Xiao family that Ling Tian was referring to were. This had nothing to do with the power structure of the Xiao family. It was just a matter of who had a closer relationship with Xiao YanXue.
It could be said that although the purpose of this operation was to bring the three thousand miles of mountains and rivers into the Divine Prefecture Empire's territory, a large part of it was because Ling Tian didn't want his woman to be sad!
Ling Chen smiled gently as she combed Ling Tian's hair with her slender fingers. She said gently, "It is already very rare for young noble to have such intentions. If little sister YanXue were to know of this, she would definitely be very touched. However, if a war were to break out, it would be impossible to protect the weak commoners from the vicious and powerful Above Heaven's Gate members. Even if an immortal were to step in, it would be impossible to do so. Thus, it is fine as long as we do our best. Just like what young noble said, it is fine as long as we have a clear conscience! "
Ling Tian and Li Xue looked at Ling Chen with their eyes wide open, as though they had just met her. After a long while, Ling Tian smiled and placed his head back down. The expression on his face was clearly one of relief.
Li Xue pursed her lips into a smile and said, "I am relieved that little sister Chen is able to say such words. With little sister Chen as the empress, Tian ge's harem will definitely be well managed. "
Ling Chen blushed and said, "Sister Xue is making fun of me again. Actually, sister Xue is the best candidate for the empress position."
Ling Tian chuckled and said, "Chen 'er, she is not making fun of you. She is sincerely praising you. You are the only mistress of the harem that I acknowledge. This is something that no one can change. Do you understand?! As the mistress of the harem, the mother of the world, if you do not know how to give up, you will not be able to sit in this position. Although I do not approve of women being ruthless, as an empress, if you do not have some means, there is no need for you to exist. The fact that you are able to say such words today is proof of your ability. You are able to give up when you gain, then you are a superior! Remember, you are the only mistress of the harem that I acknowledge! "
Ling Chen lowered her head and thought carefully. She seemed to have understood something. Suddenly, she smiled and said, "Young master, sister Xue is also here. Don't you think that sister Xue is more suitable to be the empress? If you want me … I'm afraid I can't do it. "
"In terms of ability, Li Xue is indeed the best candidate." Ling Tian said slowly, "But Chen 'er, there is one thing that you need to know. Li Xue and I are already very tired of playing politics!"
"I am really tired!"
Li Xue muttered and suddenly leaned on Ling Tian's chest. Her face was filled with weakness. This was the first time he had seen such an expression on Li Xue's face.
"It's the same for everyone. We're really tired. If we don't have to think about anything and simply live with our loved ones without worries, peace, and joy, that would be such a blissful thing."
Ling Chen was deep in thought and there was pity and apology in her eyes. She could hear the faint tiredness in Ling Tian and Li Xue's hearts. This was definitely intentional and there was no falsehood in it.
How would she know that whether it was Ling Tian or Li Xue, they had been playing politics for two lifetimes!
They were really tired of playing, tired of playing!
As for Li Xue, for Ling Tian, she would do anything and was willing to plan anything! But there was one thing that she wanted, and that was power!
As long as Ling Tian held power, Li Xue would never allow herself to hold power over him!
Perhaps Li Xue was overthinking, but as a woman, she knew that if she really held power, she would inevitably have some conflict with Ling Tian. But after experiencing what happened in her previous life, Li Xue would not allow even the slightest bit of unhappiness to exist between her and Ling Tian! Not to mention the possibility of suspicion?
Li Xue was confident that if she really wanted to be the head of the harem, who would be able to compete with her? Even Ling Chen would not be able to contend against her. But if she really became the head of the harem, even if she did not have the heart to manage things, she would not be able to do so. Because even if the head of the harem did not have the heart to manage things, she would already possess a considerable amount of power. Every word and action of hers would attract the attention of others!
Thus, Li Xue could only act as a support at any time and would not interfere directly.
She was helping Ling Tian now. In the future, she would help Ling Chen to manage the harem and Ling Tian to rule the world!
Furthermore, Ling Tian and Li Xue were both clear that with Ling Tian's ability, he was invincible in this world! If there was anyone who could threaten Ling Tian, it would definitely not be Yu Manlou or Justice! There was only one person — Li Xue!
If there was a person in this world who could kill Ling Tian, it would be Li Xue!
If there was a person in this world who could make use of all the power available to her to defeat Ling Tian, it would be Li Xue!
In terms of personal ability, Li Xue was Ling Tian's strongest opponent in this world! She was also the most qualified opponent! Be it in terms of scheming, plotting, scheming, or even doing things, Li Xue was on par with Ling Tian. In some aspects, she was even superior!
But Li Xue was destined to never be an enemy of Ling Tian!
In fact, Li Xue would not take the initiative to touch any power. On this point, Li Xue was very clear-headed and intelligent! For Ling Tian, she had suffered her entire life and even died because of Ling Tian! She even chased after Ling Tian to this world!
In Li Xue's heart, there was nothing more important than Ling Tian! Whether it was his power to rule the world or his beauty! In Li Xue's heart, there was nothing she could not give up! But the only thing she could not give up was love! It was Ling Tian!
These were Li Xue's thoughts, and Ling Tian was extremely clear about it! Ling Tian also knew that with Li Xue's strong personality, if she had real power, she would definitely go against him in terms of decision-making. Both of them were equally intelligent and Li Xue knew all of Ling Tian's weaknesses very well. She knew them better than Ling Tian himself or anyone else in this world.
Ling Tian's every expression, every thought, every action, every look, all of them had their own intentions. Li Xue knew everything! In fact, there were many things that Ling Tian did not even need to say and Li Xue would already know and do it!
It was better now that Li Xue could still control everything. She could monitor and watch coldly from the sidelines. However, she was outside of power and could help Ling Tian more. Moreover, Li Xue herself preferred such a relaxed and carefree life.
Hence, Ling Tian would not force her. On the contrary, sometimes, Ling Tian would purposely make some wrong decisions and let Li Xue correct them. The two of them enjoyed some rare pleasure.
Ling Tian admitted that he would definitely not doubt Li Xue now. However, even with everyone, Ling Tian did not believe that he could say the word 'forever'. People change.
Ling Tian could not be sure if he would change in the future. With regards to human nature, Ling Tian was extremely clear. Thus, he believed that Li Xue's decision was the correct one! It was this decision that ensured that the two of them would not doubt each other in this lifetime!
And in the future, with Li Xue helping Ling Chen, Ling Tian's harem would be unbreakable.
Being outside of the battle and being outside of the situation, he could naturally see everything clearly.
Of course, there were also disadvantages to this. Because of Li Xue, the harem of Emperor Ling Tian's harem would always be united. Emperor Ling Tian, who was in a disadvantageous position, had never been able to add another woman to his harem …
On this point, Ling Tian could be said to have lost completely! He had completely lost to Li Xue for the rest of his life. However, for a man to lose to a woman for the rest of his life, that was also the most blissful thing!
Among all the men and women in the world, those who could live happily for the rest of their lives would all have one side stronger and one side weaker. And the weaker side would definitely have a way to keep the stronger side in check.
If both sides were strong, there would definitely be friction! If both sides were weak, it would definitely be a tragedy!
Relying on each other, keeping each other in check, and achieving a balance between the strong and the weak, that was the way of husband and wife!
