People in Aurora are determined to fight chaos

The next day.

Outside Nangao City, Xue Xuan and Zu Ju stood side by side with Liu Li, with several guards standing behind them.

"The Tzeentch army is retreating in the south. They should reach the Bone Pass today."

"I heard that Yisheng asked the commander-in-chief for permission to pursue the enemy and even signed a military order. Given his marching speed, he might be able to catch up."

“Yi Sheng?”

"He also made military achievements at Viper Gate Pass. If the interception is successful, he might have a seat in the Nan Gao Nine Lords..."

"The ninth position?"

"Haha, General Zu may not know that three of the Nine Lords have been vacant..."

"Oh? Lord Xue's intelligence is really quick. It seems that I have to congratulate you in advance."

"Thank you very much. We are all working for the commander-in-chief, regardless of order."

"..."

Listening to the two people's chat which contained a huge amount of information, Liu Li yawned out of boredom.

The three of them had been standing outside the city for half an hour, just waiting for Miaoying to return.

Xue Xuan had made great contributions in defending the city, and his face was full of pride. Although Zu Ju said she didn't care, she was still envious in her heart.

Although she was appointed as a military officer by Miaoying, it was only an honorary position and the military mobilization was still handled by Miaoying herself.

As for the garrison at Nangao, that was under the command of Xue Xuan, and she had no real power.

Liu Li yawned several times in succession, and then a fluttering black flag with a white dragon appeared in the direction of Tao Yongdao, followed by dozens of cavalrymen galloping towards them.

From their solemn faces and sophisticated armor, it can be seen that they are definitely the elite in the army.

And in the Weibei provinces, there is only one army that has such bravery, and that is the Weibei Army led by Miaoying.

The cavalry passed in front of the three people, and the leader reined in his horse and stopped in front of the three people.

After seeing clearly, he saluted one by one.

"Thank you for your hard work, brothers."

"Master Xue, you are too polite. It is our honor to guard Changyuan. We are not afraid of life or death for the sake of our country and our people. The commander's main team will arrive in a quarter of an hour, so I will go into the city first."

"General Zhao, walk slowly."

After the man left, several teams of cavalry appeared from Taoyong Road. The blood on their armor had not yet dried, but the suffocating murderous atmosphere could be felt from a distance.

"What a horrible smell." Liu Li shuddered with fear and quickly shrank behind Zu Ju. The latter did not feel disgusted when she saw this. Instead, she used her sleeves to cover Liu Li's mouth and nose to prevent him from inhaling dust.

"This man's name is Zhao Chong, and he's a guerrilla general under the commander-in-chief." Zu Ju explained to Liu Li with a smile.

Liu Li blinked and asked curiously, "Is he one of the Nine?"

"Haha, no." Xue Xuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the cavalry galloping past, and said with a smile, "But he is much stronger than most of the Nine Lords..."

"Is this true?" Liu Li raised his eyebrows. A new person that he was not familiar with appeared.

"If you are interested, go find out for yourself." Xue Xuan chuckled and retracted his gaze. "The commander-in-chief is coming soon. Let's get ready."

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, a large number of troops finally appeared at the end of the sight.

They were mainly brave and their formations were neat and their steps were steady.

From afar, the entire army stretched for several miles, with a huge momentum that was breathtaking.

Miaoying has arrived.

The three men put away the leisurely expressions on their faces and stood at the city gate with serious expressions.

Liu Li could feel her heartbeat quickening, and beads of sweat appeared on her palms due to nervousness. It was hard to describe the feeling, she felt both excited and nervous.

Miaoying was a character he liked very much, but now she has become his mother.

Considering the way Miaoying behaved in the background, Liu Li didn't think the two of them would get along very well. Thinking of this, Liu Li even wanted to cry.

Just as he was struggling between inner and outer thoughts, the voices of Xue Xuan and Zu Ju interrupted his confused thoughts.

"Master Commander."

"No need to be polite."

A cold female voice came from above Liu Li's head. Even though it was polite words, the flow of air became a little condensed.

Liu Li swallowed.

Who else could have this familiar voice, this familiar feeling? Who else could have this familiar voice, this familiar feeling?

"Master Commander, the young master has also come to greet us." Seeing Liu Li suddenly lower his head and remain silent, Zu Ju quickly reminded him.

Liu Li was startled, realizing that she had forgotten to say hello. She quickly imitated the old man and bowed, shouting in a trembling voice, "Mom!"

"Ah! No!"

"Mother!"

"Congratulations, mother, on your triumphant return. Welcome home!"

Liu Li finished speaking nervously, her heart pounding. She didn't even dare to look up. All she could think of was "What the hell".

Is this bloodline suppression?

Hiss——it’s so terrifying.

"Ah."

Hearing Miaoying's indifferent response, Liu Li suddenly felt relaxed and breathed easier.

Xue Xuan and Zu Ju looked at Liu Li in confusion, wondering if this boy was usually so cowardly.

Miaoying's gaze did not stay on Liu Li for too long, and her cold expression seemed as if she was just facing a passerby.

She rolled off her horse and landed in front of the two men.

"Let's talk as we walk."

"Yes!"

Just like that, Miaoying walked in front, while Xue Xuan and Zuju followed one step behind, telling everything that had happened in the past few days word for word.

By the time Liu Li came to his senses, the three men had already walked several feet away. He was so anxious that he hurriedly took his short legs to catch up.

Unfortunately, he didn’t dare to look at Miaoying’s face just now. Liu Li could only follow her silently and secretly look at her back.

Just like the one in the background, Miaoying was wearing an elegant set of heavy silver armor, a dragon horn headdress on her head, a black cloak embroidered with white dragon patterns on her back, and an intricately crafted gauntlet on her right hand that covered the back of her hand as white as jade.

The snow-white hair, like a waterfall, was tied into a bun with three rings and tied into a high ponytail by the owner, swaying gently with the speed of the steps.

“How elegant.”

Liu Li sighed in his heart.

Just by seeing Miaoying's back, I couldn't muster any desire to disobey. Is this the power of Longzi?

While he was thinking, the three people in front of him suddenly stopped.

Miaoying turned around and glanced at Liu Li with her peripheral vision, and said coldly: "Liu Li, you don't have to follow us, go back first."

"Ah?" Liu Li was stunned for a moment, but seeing the coldness in Miaoying's eyes, he could only shrink his neck and whispered, "I know."

After Liu Li left alone, Zu Ju felt a little bit sorry for her.

"Master Commander, why are you always so harsh on the young master?"

"If the young master had not come to the front line yesterday to boost morale, the war might not have ended so easily..."

"The young master was injured because of this. Although he is fine now, he needs your care right now."

"I hope the commander-in-chief will pay more attention to the young master..."

Seeing Miaoying frowning slightly, Xue Xuan beside her quickly pulled her arm and shouted in a low voice: "Zuju!"

Zu Ju suddenly realized the truth and broke out in a cold sweat.

Talking about Longzi's family affairs is more than just an overstep for a soldier.

"Master Commander, I..."

"It's okay." Miaoying interrupted Zuju.

The scolding that Zu Ju had imagined did not come. Miao Ying simply replied casually, "I know."
