Ji Inran felt extremely shy.
In that moment, she felt her heart being touched and forgot that Yueyao, Concubine Ling, and Su Xiaoxiao were beside her.
She blurted out, "I like you, I like you so much …"
After saying that, she realized that it was inappropriate and hurriedly corrected herself.
She did not know why, but in front of Jun Wu Xie, it was so easy for her heart to ripple.
This was something that had never happened before she met Jun Wu Xie.
Perhaps he was destined to be her nemesis in her life.
Ji Inran sighed in her heart, but every time she thought of him, her heart would soften. When she was deeply in love, she would not know what to do.
She realized that she was deeply in love with him, but she did not know what to do in the future.
If one day, she had to leave him and go to a faraway place.
At that time, how would she be able to let go of him?
…
They settled down and rearranged the room according to their preferences. The sky was about to turn dark.
At this time, Qin Shan arrived.
He did not bring any guards with him. He rode a luxurious phoenix carriage to the Marshal's residence alone.
"Marshal, Young Master Jun, General Qin has invited you to the City Lord's residence for a banquet. General Qin is waiting at the door."
"Got it."
Jun Wu Xie said in the room.
The maid hurriedly left.
"Qin Shan, I have to say that you are really astute. Every step you take, you consolidate the previous one and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Jun Wu Xie muttered to himself, his eyes cold.
He finally knew where the hidden danger of this residence was.
Of course, he did not discover it himself.
He only felt that something was wrong, but could not find any clues. In the end, he asked the mysterious woman in the Universe Suppression Pagoda.
Originally, he did not want to ask her for help.
But this was not his problem alone. It concerned the stability of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. In the end, he felt that it was better not to be stubborn. In the face of an unknown danger, it was better to understand it as soon as possible.
There was something wrong with the plants in the inner courtyard of this residence.
On the surface, it looked like a place with green trees, birds chirping, and flowers blooming. The scenery was beautiful and comfortable.
If one looked at these plants individually, there would be no problem.
However, if more than ten types of plants appeared in the same area at the same time, that would be a problem.
He obtained the answer from the mysterious woman.
The combination of the odors produced by the ten or so types of plants and vegetation was a unique poison.
This kind of aura could not be detected by cultivators, unless it was an existence at the Ancestor Realm or above. Only then would it be possible for a cultivator with a powerful soul and the ability to sense minute changes in their body to detect abnormalities.
This kind of comprehensive aura would slowly seep into the martial artist's body, hibernating in their flesh and blood, and fusing with their true energy.
Normally, he wouldn't feel any discomfort.
In fact, it wouldn't be a problem for him to use his True Qi or Blood Qi in a normal battle.
However, if one were to engage in a high-intensity battle, then the poison would explode, causing the martial artist's True Qi to go berserk and their Blood Qi to flow in the opposite direction, out of control.
"Senior, how do I cure the poison?"
"Your Weapon Fire can refine the dormant poison gas in your body, or with Su Xiaoxiao's ability, she can also refine an antidote pill, but it will take a long time. In this world, using natural plants to poison people is considered extremely clever. I don't believe that Qin Shan would be able to do this. There should be an expert guiding him from behind. "
"As long as there's a way to cure the poison, then it's easy to talk about. As for the expert guiding him from behind, I'm not worried. That so-called expert didn't directly attack us, but used this method to let Qin Shan attack us. This means that he has his own concerns. Perhaps the news of you killing several sacred sects of the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect in the capital has already spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness, and that expert is very wary. "
"Haha, as I said, even if you're beaten to death in a competition between peers, I won't do anything. However, if the older generation wants to use their cultivation to bully others, I'll let them know what it means to be invincible in the Three Realms. "
"Senior, you seem to dislike the older generation of martial artists using their cultivation to bully the younger generation."
"Haha …" The mysterious woman said indifferently, "Yes, I once also …"
She suddenly stopped and said, "Hurry up and leave. You should go to the banquet."
Jun Wu Xie was stunned.
What did the mysterious woman want to say? Could it be that she had been bullied by martial artists of a higher cultivation before?
This shocked him.
Didn't she say that the pets she raised in her house were all legends?
The children of those pets were all at the Eons or Eons level from birth!
Born in such a family, who would dare to bully her with their cultivation?
Just as he was in a daze, he was suddenly thrown out by the mysterious woman. The shock made his soul feel like it was about to fall apart.
This made him speechless. This person was too violent. When she was unhappy, she would even beat up her own people!
He tidied his clothes and opened the door. He saw that Ji Inran was already waiting in the courtyard.
Yueyao, Concubine Ling, and Su Xiaoxiao were also there.
"You don't have to go. Wait here for us to come back."
After saying this, Jun Wu Xie kissed Yueyao's forehead and then walked out with Ji Inran.
He didn't mention the strange poison.
He didn't tell Yueyao, Concubine Ling, Su Xiaoxiao, or Ji Inran.
If he guessed correctly, Qin Shan invited them to the banquet to confirm whether or not they had noticed this strange poison and whether or not they had already inhaled it.
This scheming person would change his plans as soon as he sensed the slightest movement of the grass in the wind.
As they walked out of the mansion, they saw Qin Shan standing in front of a luxurious phoenix carriage.
Seeing them come out, Qin Shan hurriedly came forward and said, "Welcome, Marshal. Please get on the phoenix carriage. I will personally drive the carriage for you."
"Thank you, Marshal."
Ji Inran got on the phoenix carriage, and Qin Shan hurriedly lifted the curtain.
At this moment, Jun Wu Xie also got on the carriage.
Qin Shan sat in front of the carriage and drove it away.
A trace of coldness and anger flashed across his eyes.
Driving for Ji Inran? She was the princess of the dynasty and the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
However, Jun Wu Xie, a commoner, actually got on the carriage and made him, a Marshal, the driver!
"This is a great humiliation to me! However, you don't have many days left to live. "
Qin Shan drove the carriage. His expression was calm, but his heart was filled with murderous intent.
...
In the City Lord's Mansion's banquet hall.
The decorations here were not luxurious, but it was very simple and grand.
There were dozens of exquisite chairs on both sides of the living room. They were arranged vertically with a distance of two meters between them.
There were three sets of tables and chairs at the top of the living room. The table and chair in the middle were larger and more imposing.
The living room was already filled with people. There were civil officials and generals.
"Welcome, Marshal!"
When Ji Inran entered the living room, everyone who was sitting stood up.
"Everyone, please don't be so courteous. Take a seat."
Ji Inran exuded her aura and walked towards the most imposing table and chair in the middle.
Qin Shan followed behind her.
She sat on the seat at the top, and Qin Shan sat on the seat to her right.
Jun Wu Xie sat on the table to her left.
For a moment, all eyes in the living room were focused on him.
Among these eyes, there were curious and cold.
"Sirs and generals, today is the banquet organized by General Qin. I'm here to offer a toast to all of you. I hope that all of you can unite as one and fight against the foreign enemies. We will forever block the Celestial Kingdom's army outside the borders of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Ji Yinlan raised her wine cup, stood up, and said.
"The Marshal's toast is too much for us. Uniting against the enemy is what we should do!"
"Marshal, don't worry. As long as we're alive, the Celestial Kingdom's army will never be able to invade!"
...
A few generals spoke one after another. Their faces were full of reverence and their words were sonorous.
At this moment, someone else spoke, "At the border, with the Great General around, no enemy will be able to take advantage of us. Now that we have the Marshal, the border will be impregnable!"
"Everyone, let's not waste any more words. We will unite as one and fight against the foreign enemies!"
Ji Inran finished the wine in her cup. Compared to when she was in front of Jun Wu Xie, she was much more valiant now.
After finishing the wine in her cup, she sat down and looked at the generals in the hall. She was slightly surprised.
Among these generals, there were quite a few who were her trusted aides that she had placed in the border army over the years.
Qin Shan had actually invited them over.
Was he trying to make her misunderstand that these subordinates were biased towards him?
Or was he trying to confuse her by showing his loyalty?
At this moment, Qin Yi Bo walked up the stairs with a cup of wine and came to Ji Inran's table. His eyes shone with a fiery light as he said, "There have been many battles recently and it has been hard on the Marshal. Last time, it was fortunate that the Marshal sent the Black Armored Army to arrive in time and saved me from danger. I would like to propose a toast to the Marshal to express my gratitude! "
Ji Inran frowned slightly.
She really did not want to look at Qin Yi Bo!
This person, in front of Jun Wu Xie, repeatedly tried to please her. It really disgusted her.
She was about to speak when Qin Yi Bo suddenly looked at Jun Wu Xie on the left.
"Marshal, who is this?" Qin Yi Bo pretended not to know him and said, "He looks unfamiliar, but to be able to sit in this position, he should be in a high position in the border army, right? May I know which general he is? "
Looking at Qin Yi Bo's monkey like performance, the corners of Jun Wu Xie's mouth curved slightly.
This guy clearly knew who he was and did not hold a position in the army, but he deliberately said that in public. He just wanted to embarrass him and deliberately ridicule him.
Since this Qin Yi Bo wanted to humiliate himself, he would not be polite.
