Not long after they entered the Qi border, Ye Zhen heard that Zhao Kuang had ordered Song Honao to attack the Ning Kingdom.
"Zhao Rao is up to no good. She's taking advantage of him!" Ye Zhen's eyes flashed with anger. She was too aware of Zhao Rao's hatred. Since Cheng Zheng's death, she must have been thinking of revenge every night.
Cheng Zheng was killed by Ye Zhen in front of Zhao Rao. She didn't mind Zhao Rao's revenge.
"She wants to capture Ming Yu alive for revenge." Fire Phoenix said, "Yao Yao, let's go help Ming Yu."
"Let me think about it." Ye Zhen rubbed her eyebrows. If she rushed to Danzhou at this time, she wouldn't be able to go to the Qi Kingdom.
White Tiger frowned at Ye Zhen and asked, "Who is Ming Yu?"
"My daughter." Ye Zhen replied. She didn't look at White Tiger. Instead, she was thinking about whether she should go to the capital or Danzhou to stop Song Honao.
"You … you have a daughter?" White Tiger's noble and calm face showed a shocked expression. "How can you marry someone else!"
Fire Phoenix rolled her eyes. "Why can't Yao Yao have a daughter? Why can't she marry our City Lord? In addition to a daughter, she has a son! "
White Tiger seemed to have suffered a great blow. He looked at Ye Zhen in horror and sadness. It's over! If the Young Emperor comes back and finds out that Xiao Yao has married someone else, how sad will he be?
Xiao Yao is the fiancée of the Young Emperor!
"If we want to go to Danzhou first, we can." Wolsheng whispered to Ye Zhen.
"How long can your order last?" Ye Zhen asked. They encountered many monsters along the way. Although they didn't see them hurt people, it was clear that they were no longer under Wolsheng's control.
They really needed the Demon Flag to ensure the safety of the people in the human world.
Wolsheng said, "I can't guarantee it."
They still needed to go to the palace of the Qi Kingdom to find other blood demons. What if Ying Yang happened to be there?
"Yao Yao, no one can fight Ming Yu now." Fire Phoenix reminded her. He was also worried about Ming Yu.
"I know." This was why Ye Zhen was worried about Ming Yu. If they lost this battle, anyone could bully the Ning Kingdom in the future.
Ji Shen called out, "Little Yao, I'll go help Mingyu. You and Big Brother Wolsheng go to the Capital."
"Have you ever led troops to war?" Ye Zhen asked helplessly. "I'm talking about leading mortals to war."
"…" Ji Shen wanted to say how could it be possible that he had never fought in a war before. However, he had never led mortals into battle before. He did have a lot of experience leading a group of demonic beasts to fight against the God Race.
White Tiger was extremely depressed. Listening to their conversation, it seemed like even Woo Sheng and the others had seen Xiaoyao's child. He was the only one who had not seen it. Moreover, they had all agreed and accepted it.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, Xiaoyao was neither married to the Young Emperor nor was she with Wen Tian.
"Aiya!" The Fire Phoenix suddenly shouted, scaring everyone.
"What's wrong?" asked Ye Rou.
"Yao Yao, Mingxi is in Ning Country." Fire Phoenix cried out. "He definitely won't just stand by and watch. Maybe he has a way."
Ye Zhen slapped her forehead. How could she have forgotten about Mingxi? Mingxi had experienced many battles, be it in the Xuantian Continent or here.
"I'll send a voice transmission to Mingxi and ask him about the situation," said Ye Zhen.
"Mingxi … is your son?" White Tiger asked carefully, his face blank.
Fire Phoenix said proudly, "Of course he's Yao Yao and the City Lord's son."
It's over! White Tiger's heart was filled with guilt. He had failed the Young Emperor!
Ye Zhen couldn't be bothered to explain too much to White Tiger. She had already sent a voice transmission to Mingxi, asking him about the situation.
Ji Shen and Fanfan stood quietly by her side, waiting for her to decide where to go next.
Soon, Mingxi replied to Ye Zhen.
"We don't need to go to Shuizhou. Let's go to the Capital." Ye Zhen received Mingxi's reply. Although she was still worried about the situation, she thought that with Mingxi, Little Rou, and Murong Ke sending Tang Zhen to support them, there shouldn't be any problems.
"What's wrong?" Wolong Sheng looked at her, puzzled.
Ye Zhen said, "Mingxi has already led his troops to battle. The Jin Kingdom also has reinforcements. They should be able to resist Song Hongao. However, Mingxi said that there's a mastiff in the Qi Kingdom's camp."
"Mastiff?" Ji Shen and Fanfan blurted out, looking at Ye Zhen nervously. "How can there be a mastiff in the camp?"
"Mingxi didn't explain clearly," said Ye Zhen. "It seems to be in the camp all the time. Maybe … it won't hurt anyone."
Fanfan shook her head. "Mastiffs are ferocious beasts, and they are very aggressive. They don't like to be close to mortals. How can they live in the camp without hurting anyone? Unless …"
"Unless what?" Fire Phoenix asked hurriedly. These were all ancient monsters. As a spiritual beast that had lived for more than a thousand years, there were many monsters that he had never seen before.
Ji Shen continued, "Unless it's a female mastiff, and she's pregnant with a cub. Only then will she not hurt anyone."
"Why?" Fire Phoenix asked again. Whether it was a monster or a mortal, didn't they all become stronger when they were pregnant?
"Female mastiffs don't hurt people when they are pregnant." Ye Zhen said, "It seems that this is to protect the cub in her belly and herself. Mastiffs use their power when they are pregnant, which consumes a lot of power. If they can't supply it to the child in their belly, they will harm themselves."
This was what Wu Sheng had read in the book about ancient monsters.
Fire Phoenix said, "What are you afraid of, we have …"
She wanted to say that they have Rou 'er, but when she remembered that Rou' er always hid her dragon aura in front of Wu Sheng, she swallowed the words back. "We have Mingxi, he's immortal."
"That's because you don't understand the mastiff." Fanfan said faintly, "Apart from the top ten monsters, the mastiff is the most ferocious monster. What's more … it may have come from the Desolate Hell. Maybe it's an ancient monster like us."
Fire Phoenix heard a little bit of meaning. "You mean, Mingxi is in danger?"
"I didn't say that." Fanfan glanced at Ye Zhen. "We don't know Mingxi's strength. Maybe he can beat the mastiff."
"Believe in Mingxi!" Ye Zhen said. Since it can live in the Qi Kingdom's military camp, it is very likely that the mastiff is really pregnant.
How could Song Hongao let the mastiff live in the military camp?
Ye Zhen felt that she should ask someone about it.
"Yes, our Mingxi is very powerful." Even if he can't beat the mastiff, there's still Rou 'er.
Seeing that Ye Zhen seemed to be very relieved about Mingxi, Wu Sheng said, "Then let's continue to the capital. If there's time, we can help Mingxi."
"Good!" Ye Zhen nodded.
"We can teleport, but what about this?" Fire Phoenix asked, pointing to the ring.
Wu Sheng said lightly, "I'll take him."
