In the middle of the battlefield, Li Mochou's face was pale as he stared at the figure on the wall. He shook his head and sighed. Ignoring the wounds on his body, he waved his horsetail whisk and left.
She knew that there was no point in staying. She wouldn't be able to achieve anything.
Yang Guo looked at Guo Jing on the wall of Xiangyang. The Mongolian army had already fled. With Mu Qingxiao there, they probably wouldn't dare to attack. He carried his sword and chased after Li Mochou.
"Aunt, wait for me!"
At this moment, Liu Haoren had already hung Khubilai's head on the wall. He then led the Hall of the Nine Clouds to chase after the enemy.
Mu Qingxiao turned around and said seriously, "Hero Guo, I've done what I should do. It's time for me to leave. Once the encirclement is over, the Hall of the Nine Clouds will be disbanded. Please tell Liu Haoren."
Hearing Mu Qingxiao's words, Guo Jing was confused. The situation was good now. Why would they disband the Hall of the Nine Clouds? With the Hall of the Nine Clouds as a deterrent, the Mongolians definitely wouldn't dare to invade the Central Plains again.
"Hero Guo, you're a loyal man. I know what you're thinking, but you have to understand something."
Mu Qingxiao looked at Guo Jing. She was speechless. This guy was too honest. He didn't know how to be flexible. He only had Xiangyang and the Great Song in his heart. He couldn't see the current situation clearly.
The Mongolians had indeed retreated, but the royal family …
"Hero Guo, as the saying goes, two tigers cannot live on one mountain. The Hall of the Nine Clouds's current power has completely threatened the royal family. Our actions are indeed for the sake of the Great Song, but the royal family is afraid of the Hall of the Nine Clouds. I'm about to leave. If the Hall of the Nine Clouds continues to develop like this, I don't think I need to say more about the consequences!"
Guo Jing's pupils shrank. With Mu Qingxiao's explanation, he understood the logic behind it.
Two days later, the war ended, and the casualties were calculated. The Hall of the Nine Clouds lost 40,000 disciples, Quanzhen lost 20,000, and Mongolia lost 80,000. Within Xiangyang City, the citizens of the Great Song cheered.
Before this, no one believed that the Great Song would actually be able to stop the Mongols from going south. This war was a complete victory.
However, they didn't know how much blood was shed by the disciples of the Hall of the Nine Clouds behind this victory.
The price of victory was extremely heavy.
Liu Haoren didn't say anything about it. After he ascended to the position of Hall Master of the Hall of the Nine Clouds, he dismissed the Hall of the Nine Clouds without hesitation.
The next day, he left Xiangyang City with his wife and children and began to live a normal life.
After this, Guo Jing and his wife were summoned by the imperial court. Many of the people who participated in this war went to the imperial court to seek an official position.
Although the Hall of the Nine Clouds slowly faded from everyone's sight, it would forever be engraved in the hearts of the citizens of the Great Song.

At this moment, Mu Qingxiao was standing in the garden behind the mountain of the Ancient Tomb Sect. After revisiting this place, she looked at the pink pearl in the Yin Yang Jade. Her eyes flashed with nostalgia.
"I don't know how Long 'er is doing. I will definitely find you even if I have to go to the ends of the earth."
"System, return to Earth."
When Mu Qingxiao opened her eyes again, she was already standing on the sidewalk of Jinghai City. Looking at the busy streets and the bustling passersby, Jinghai City was as prosperous as ever.
It should be the peak hour for people to go to work.
Looking around, the manmade flowers and plants by the roadside had already bloomed. Clearly, winter was over and spring was coming. According to the season, she had left at the beginning of winter. It should have only been three or four months.
Three or four months was not too long for the wives at home. But for Mu Qingxiao, twenty years in the Divine Condor Realm was too long.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxiao did not hesitate. She got into a taxi and went straight to Jindi's Gardens.
Half an hour later, Mu Qingxiao returned to Jindi's Gardens. Following the familiar path, she arrived at her villa. She took out the electronic card from the storage space, opened the villa's electronic door, and stepped into the courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, the bamboo on both sides of the winding path had grown new leaves. The atmosphere in the courtyard was much fresher than before.
Apart from the smell of spring, the villa was the same as when she left.
Mu Qingxiao slowly walked through the winding path and arrived at the villa's main entrance. After pushing the door open and entering the villa, she heard the laughter of her wives. Her lips could not help but curl into a gentle smile.
When Mu Qingxiao appeared in the living room, Wang Yuyan and the others were delighted. Their beautiful eyes were filled with gentleness, but they were not as excited as they usually were.
After all, the latter had been away for a few months. As she went out more and more often, they slowly got used to it.
The virtuous Ah Bi stood up from the sofa and said gently, "My husband is back. You must be tired. Rest for a while. Ya 'er and I will go and cook."
After Ah Bi and Ya 'er went to the kitchen, Mu Qingxiao sat on the sofa and hugged Wang Yuyan. He could not help but ask, "Girl, where are Aju and Zi Yan? Why don't I see them?"
Hearing this, Wang Yuyan leaned into his arms and said softly, "Sister Zi Yan took Aju to the company. They should be back by noon."
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Mu Qingxiao was a little surprised. He rubbed her soft black hair.
"What's going on? Why would Aju go to the company? Is there a mistake? Moreover, Zi Yan has so many people in the company. Why would she ask Aju to help her?"
Wang Yuyan said, "Hehe, I heard from Sister Zi Yan that she is not going to work at the family's company after she finishes her work. Aju volunteered to help her."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Qingxiao's mouth twitched. It was hard to imagine that Aju, who spent all his time in front of the computer playing games, would volunteer to help Zi Yan.
Wait …
"Yuyan, did you just say that Zi Yan is not going to work at the family's company after she finishes her work?"
"Yes, Sister Zi Yan plans to transfer all her assets to the Ouyang family. She doesn't want to have anything to do with them anymore."
Hearing those words, a trace of pleasant surprise flashed in Mu Qingxiao's eyes. The assets in Zi Yan's hands were worth at least a few billion. He did not care about that. After all, money was just a string of numbers in his eyes.
Why didn't he think of this in the beginning? If he wanted to develop a business empire, he had the best person around him.
Zi Yan was very talented in business. She came to Jinghai City alone and developed a business empire of such a scale. Moreover, she was his woman. Of course, he trusted her unconditionally.
Zi Yan transferring all her assets to the Ouyang family and drawing a clear line in business matters was exactly what he wanted.
After all, because of what happened in the past, Mu Qingxiao did not have a good impression of some people in the Ouyang family.
