"Oh, Sister Zi Nu, do you perhaps want to ask for some treasure?"

Seeing that everyone had a mocking smile on their face, even Madam Hu was covering her mouth and chuckling.

Zi Nu rolled her eyes.

The sunlight fell on the purple outfit on the beach, its shimmering luster reflecting a fluorescent glow.

"You're right, I'm going to ask for the treasure!"

Ying Zheng: “…”

This woman certainly has grand ambitions.

Chapter Eighty-Three: Purple Flowers Bloom!

Blue sky and white clouds, green shade and sandy beach.

It was incredibly pleasant; a group of women who had never let loose before were having a great time.

In the clear pond water, white fish, adorned with pale pink hues and soft, ethereal shadows, swam gracefully.

Ying Zheng lay casually on a chair, basking in the sun.

A gentle breeze occasionally blows by, its warm scent caressing the skin and giving one a languid feeling.

"Your Majesty, would you like me to give you a massage?"

A faint, musky scent, like orchids and musk, wafts into the nose, while a gentle breath lingers in the ear.

Ying Zheng lazily didn't even open his eyes.

"Row."

Zi Nu let out a soft laugh and placed Ying Zheng's head on her plump, jade-like legs.

Then gently massage their head.

In the pool, Madam Mingzhu looked up and then covered her mouth and laughed.

"Zi Nu is probably going to eat people."

As soon as these words were spoken, laughter erupted from the pool.

Hearing the laughter of the crowd, a hint of embarrassment flashed in Zi Nu's bright eyes.

……

Despite the scorching summer heat, the westward expeditionary army showed no signs of fatigue.

Everyone was in high spirits.

Because at this point, they had already crossed the Hexi Corridor.

Not far away lies the road leading to the Western Regions.

Li Xin was looking through the somewhat rough map when a messenger arrived.

"General, we are about to reach the border of the Kingdom of Kucha, which is eighty li ahead!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin put down the map, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"it is good!"

"Notify the entire army: depart at full speed!"

This westward expeditionary army consisted of first-rate martial artists, even the lowest-ranking ones, and thus they traversed more than 20,000 kilometers in just a few days.

At this distance of only a hundred miles, advancing at full speed will not affect combat effectiveness.

Upon receiving the order, the soldiers instantly became excited.

"Damn it, we finally made it."

"I've heard that the women of the Western Regions are beautiful; let's snatch a few for the King!"

"Haha, brothers, charge!"

In an instant, as if an earthquake had struck, the army moved swiftly across the land like an ancient serpent.

Less than an hour.

The army rumbled to a halt in the wilderness, with a small, square town in the distance.

Seeing this, the soldiers of Kucha were instantly terrified and trembled like leaves.

"Enemy attack!! Close the city gates immediately!"

"Enemy attack!"

The soldiers shouted wildly, and the next moment, the city gate slammed shut.

The soldiers defending the city finally breathed a sigh of relief and had the energy to observe the situation on the other side.

"That looks like the Qin Dynasty's military flag."

"How could the Qin people possibly have invaded this place?!"

Over the years, the Western Regions and the Qin Dynasty had engaged in some trade, and they were quite familiar with each other.

At this moment, the city lord walked up the city wall and immediately recognized the Black Bird Banner.

"They are indeed people from the Qin Dynasty!"

His face was grave as he sent messengers to request reinforcements while rapidly considering how to buy time.

There are only ten or twenty thousand people on the other side.

Holding the city for a day or two shouldn't be a problem, right?

The city lord thought to himself.

But the next moment, his expression changed drastically. The beast that had just stopped suddenly started running wildly again.

They moved with incredible speed, running on foot, faster than the Akhal-Teke horse, like lightning.

The Qin army surged forward like a tsunami.

"Wind! Strong wind!"

"May Your Majesty be victorious!"

The Qin soldiers shouted with fervor, and in the blink of an eye, they had already rushed to the city wall.

The Kucha soldiers were so frightened that their hands and feet went limp.

Are these demons? It's terrifying.

"It's alright, they didn't bring siege engines, they can't break through..."

The city lord forced himself to remain calm, but before he could finish speaking, Li Xin had already leaped over the city wall.

Then more and more Qin soldiers leaped onto the city walls.

City Lord: "..."

Is this even human? Even a powerful martial artist could leap over the city wall in an instant.

Are all the people of Qin warriors?!

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

The city lord's obese body trembled violently.

Pfft!

When some soldiers attempted to resist, Li Xin casually beheaded more than a dozen of them.

The smell of blood permeates the air.

However, the Qin army, which descended like gods and demons, caused the soldiers of Kucha to lose all will to resist.

"Surrender and you will not be killed!!"

The city lord understood and immediately roared, ordering all the soldiers to lay down their weapons.

Seeing this, Li Xin sheathed his sword and sighed helplessly.

With only a thousand or so soldiers stationed in such a small town, they really couldn't cause much of a stir.

"Summon all the people of Cheng; I have some orders to give."

Li Xin glanced coldly at the city lord.

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

The heavily pregnant city lord wiped the cold sweat from his forehead as he was escorted away.

Li Xin glanced at the map and gave instructions to the generals:

"Each captain will lead a thousand soldiers. You have one day to conquer all the cities of the Kingdom of Kucha."

"Remember, control is key."

"If everyone dies, you bastards can go mining yourselves!"

Hearing Li Xin's warning, the generals looked somewhat embarrassed; these bastards were too bloodthirsty.
