Other than Ming Xi being ambushed on the street, Mo Rongzhan had also been surrounded by over ten people on his way back from the barracks. At that time, he had only brought two soldiers with him and no one else. One of the two soldiers had been killed, and the other had only been protected by Mo Rongzhan.
Back at the General's Mansion, Ye Rou was planning to look for him. Although she knew that with his cultivation level, it was impossible for him to be injured in the human world, she still couldn't help but worry.
"Mingxi met an assassin on the street today. Are you alright?" Ye Zhen stepped forward and held Mo Rongzhan's hand, looking at him carefully to make sure that there was no injury. Then she smiled and said, "I was wondering if she would send someone to deal with you."
"Yes." Mo Rongzhan held her hand. "We met a few people outside the city. They're just a motley crew. Don't worry about them."
As expected, someone had gone to deal with him!
"Zhao Rao is really ruthless." Ye Zhen snorted. "She wants to catch you and Mingxi to threaten me."
Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly. "They have three times the number of soldiers we have. We don't have much of a chance of winning if we charge head-on. When the time comes, I'll lead the troops to attack from their rear."
Ye Zhen said, "Let me go. I will take Ming Xi and the others with me. Give me another thousand elite soldiers. I will break their rear forces, and you will arrange the troops in front."
"You?" Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows. "I don't remember you ever being on the battlefield."
"Who said that!" Ye Zhen scratched his hand. "When I first conquered Dongqing, I went to the battlefield. Besides, although my spiritual power is limited, I am still sure that I can deal with those soldiers. Moreover, I will take Mingxi and the others with me. There will be no problem."
Mo Rongzhan frowned and thought about the feasibility of this method.
"Don't underestimate me," Ye Rou shouted.
"I don't dare to underestimate Madam." Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly, his eyes moving.
Ye Zhen walked with him to the backyard. "Tomorrow, we will go to the barracks. We don't have to wait for Zhao Rao to take the initiative to attack. Let's send troops first. It's best to let her give up in the first battle."
Mo Rongzhan chuckled, "It's good that Madam has such a great ambition."
"Well, only with great ambition can there be motivation." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Are you sure about it?"
"Since Madam is so motivated, your husband naturally wouldn't dare to slack off. I will … do my best to win this battle for Madam." Mo Rongzhan's lips curled up into a faint smile.
Ye Zhen listened to the meaning of his words and whispered, "Do you want to repay me?"
"You've already pledged yourself to me. How else do you want to repay me?" Mo Rongzhan asked lightly.
"…" Ye Zhen grabbed his hand and bit it.
Mo Rongzhan's finger scraped the tip of her tongue. As she gasped, he lowered his head and covered her mouth, kissing her hard.
This was the garden! Ye Zhen grumpily patted his shoulder, her body softly leaning against his arms.
A moment later, Mo Rongzhan let go of her and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back."
"Mingxi hasn't gone back yet. I have to wait for him." Ye Zhen's breathing was a little rapid, and her cheeks were covered with two groups of red.
Mo Rongzhan stroked her chin. "Yeah."
Ye Zhen grabbed his hand and looked around. "I'm going to see if Mingxi is back."
Although he couldn't see her, Mo Rongzhan could feel the shame and annoyance of Ye Zhen rushing away. After so many years, she still made him feel that he never got tired of her. It was as if as long as he heard her voice and laughter, his whole body would feel comfortable.
She was clearly reluctant to leave the human world. In order to cure his eyes, she was willing to accompany him back to the Upper God's Continent.
Going to the Upper God's Continent again meant that they would have to leave their daughter again. For him, this was a parting that he could bear, but for Ye Zhen, it would be another painful separation.
Thinking of Ye Zhen's love for his daughter, Mo Rongzhan stroked his eyes with his slender fingers. He still had to find a way to cure his eyes.
Ye Zhen was about to go out to find Mingxi when the three children came back one after another.
"Mother, are you going out?" Mingxi saw Ye Zhen standing by the door and thought she was going out.
"I'm going to find you." Ye Zhen saw that they were all stained with blood. It was obvious that they had fought. "Are you injured?"
Mingxi said, "It's not that we are injured. It turns out that Zhao Rao has a lot of killers lurking in the Baili Continent. We just met them twice more, but we solved them all."
Ye Zhen frowned. "What about those people?"
"If we can't beat them, we will commit suicide by poison. However, there should be fish that escaped the net." Mingxi said, "Mother, do you want to catch them completely?"
"No, they should have gone to report to Zhao Rao." Ye Zhen said lightly. "We will go out of the city tomorrow. You all go back and rest."
Fire Phoenix cried, "Let's go to the barracks together? Can we go with them? "
"Yes." Ye Zhen nodded. "I'll tell you in detail tomorrow."
These words made the three children completely excited. They thought that they would only be left in the city. It was better to be able to go to the battlefield than to stay here.
Ye Zhen shook her head and sighed, thinking that they were more suitable to live in the Upper God's Continent or the Xuantian Continent. Here, they were restricted everywhere.
Should she consider leaving the human world earlier?
But the thought of leaving Ming Yu made her feel very sad.
…
…
The next day, Ye Zhen and the others were still in the dark. The wind was so strong that it made their clothes flutter.
Ye Zhen and the others had already left the Baili Continent and were heading towards the barracks.
They were separated from the Qi Kingdom's barracks by a desert and rolling hills. This was not a very good battlefield. It was difficult for both sides to march, but it was very advantageous for a surprise attack.
"Mother, what is my position? Vanguard? " Mingxi asked excitedly. Since he was brought to the barracks, it was certainly not to sit in the tent and wait.
"No." Ye Zhen shook her head lightly.
"Vanguard?" Well, it's fine if I don't let him be the vanguard.
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "You and I will take a thousand soldiers to attack them from the rear."
Mingxi's eyes widened. "Is this a sneak attack?"
"It doesn't sound good to say sneak attack. It's a surprise attack!" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows.
… What's the difference?
Fire Phoenix laughed. "Sneak attack is good. I like it."
"The enemy's military strength is above ours. Don't underestimate them." Ye Zhen frowned. Although there was no need to worry about their martial arts, Zhao Rao's military strength was much stronger than theirs.
They could only win with speed, but they didn't know if they would succeed.
In fact, Ye Zhen was not 100% sure about this war.
Mingxi said, "Mother, don't worry. We won't underestimate the enemy."
"I want to go too." Shang 'er cried.
"Sure." Ming Xi said with a smile.
Fire Phoenix curled her lips. "You really follow wherever you go. You are not Mingxi's wife yet."
"But I'm a child bride!" Shang 'er cried.
"…" Ye Zhen glared at Fire Phoenix.
Fire Phoenix turned away, stifling her laughter.
