Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Young Master Nan smiled slightly and shook his head, saying, "Miss Xueyao, you misunderstood. I am not the general, but only his personal guard. The general was unable to come in person to express his gratitude due to his injuries, so he sent me here to express his gratitude on his behalf."

Xue Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still confused. She asked, "How did you know that I saved the general?"

Young Master Nan replied, "After the general woke up, he sent people to inquire about what happened that day. Someone mentioned Miss Xueyao's rescue and the magical elixir."

He actually checked all of this himself, so what was there that he didn't understand?

If Murong Chen knew about this, he would think to himself, who else in the capital could be so helpful and have such medical skills except Miss Xueyao?

Xue Yao felt somewhat relieved upon hearing this, but was more surprised. She quickly said modestly, "Sir, you are too kind. I have only done my best."

Young Master Nan added, "The general also mentioned that Miss Xueyao and Young Master Chu opened a grain store in the capital, and business is booming. If there's anything you need help with in the future, please feel free to ask."

Even this has been found out? This information is quite well-informed.

Xue Yao couldn't help but admire the general's attentiveness and consideration, but at the same time, she felt a little uneasy about the attention their grain store was receiving. Gaining a foothold in this bustling capital city was no easy feat, not to mention the unknown forces that might be lurking behind the scenes.

She nodded slightly and replied politely, "Thank you for your kindness, young master and general. If there is any need, we will speak up. However, in this capital, various forces are intertwined, and we are just a small business, so we dare not have too many extravagant expectations."

Young Master Nan seemed to see through her thoughts and smiled slightly, saying, "Miss Xueyao, there's no need to be so modest. The general said that you two are both outstanding people. You will definitely make a name for yourself in this capital in the future."

Xue Yao's heart stirred. She remembered the unknown force Chu Yunxiang had mentioned earlier. Perhaps the general could provide some clues. She tentatively asked, "Sir, do you know if there is any unknown force active in the capital recently?"

Young Master Nan's expression darkened, and he nodded, "We've also noticed this. This force already existed in the borderlands, and now it's infiltrated the capital. This is truly worrying. The general has returned this time to investigate this matter."

Xueyao thought he would be shocked after hearing this, or at least surprised that Xueyao knew about this. But she saw that Master Nan had a calm expression, as if he was not bothered by it.

She was delighted, thinking that she might be able to provide the general with some useful information. "If you don't mind, I can tell you everything I know."

Young Master Nan was overjoyed and thanked him profusely. The two sat down and began to discuss the situation of the unknown force in detail.

During the conversation, Xueyao learned more about this force. It turned out that this force had been secretly controlling the economic lifeline of the capital, even colluding with some officials in an attempt to control the entire court. The general returned this time to uncover the true face of this force and eliminate this harm to the court.

Xue Yao felt a deep sense of responsibility and decided to do everything in her power to help the general and Chu Yunxiang fight this unknown force. She said, "Sir, if there's anything we can do about this matter, just let us know. Together, we can work for peace in the capital."

Young Master Nan was filled with gratitude. He said, "Miss Xueyao is truly a woman who is as capable as any man. On behalf of the general, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you."

The two talked for a while longer, and then Young Master Nan said goodbye and left. Xue Yao saw him off to the door, but her heart remained restless for a long time.

When Chu Yunxiang learned about Master Nan's visit to Xueyao, he immediately asked, "Miss Xueyao, who is that master? What does he want from you?"

Xue Yao told him everything. After hearing this, Chu Yunxiang couldn't help but sigh, "This general is truly a man of love and righteousness."

These days, Baoling, Xueyu, Renhu and Qingyi have been helping Murong Chen.

Bai Yichen has returned to his place to handle some important official business.

After seeing off Young Master Nan, Xue Yao was filled with determination and anticipation. She returned to her room and fell into deep thought, analyzing every aspect of that unknown force, trying to find any clues.

At the same time, she decided to tell Chu Yunxiang her thoughts. He had a wide network of contacts and perhaps if she paid more attention, she would discover something.

Chu Yunxiang was busy in the grain shop. When he saw Xue Yao coming, he stopped what he was doing and went to greet her.

Xueyao told Chu Yunxiang her analysis and speculations one by one. Chu Yunxiang frowned after hearing this. The situation of this unknown force was much more complicated than he had imagined.

"Miss Xueyao, your analysis makes sense. This force is indeed not to be underestimated, and we must deal with it with caution." He pondered for a moment, "Okay, then let's work together to uncover the true face of this unknown force and rid the capital of this harm."

Xueyao and Chu Yunxiang were both busy. Not only did they have to face the threat from that unknown force, but they also had to deal with the pressure behind it.

As time went by, Xueyao and Chu Yunxiang's efforts gradually paid off.

Su Xin, Yun Duoduo and Xiao Lin'er acted separately.

Su Xin is responsible for gathering rumors and clues about unknown forces in the capital. With her keen insight and wit, she successfully gathers valuable information. Yun Duoduo, leveraging the connections she's made throughout her travels, connects with some highly skilled warriors willing to contribute to the cause of justice. Xiao Lin'er secretly observes officials connected to unknown forces, attempting to uncover their weaknesses.

Upon learning of Xue Yao and Chu Yunxiang's actions, Murong Chen decided to support them. He used his influence within the court to secretly investigate the background and purpose of the unknown force. At the same time, he also began to prepare to deal with officials who had been lured by the unknown force to prevent them from continuing to act as accomplices.

One day, Xueyao receives a mysterious letter revealing a major plan by an unknown force. She immediately gathers Chu Yunxiang, Murong Chen, Su Xin, Yun Duoduo, and Xiao Lin'er to discuss countermeasures.

After some discussion, they decided to take the initiative and strike first. They split up into several groups and attacked several key strongholds of the unknown force, successfully curbing their arrogance. At the same time, they also used this opportunity to gather more information about the force.

However, just when they thought they had won, a more powerful force suddenly appeared. They not only possessed superb martial arts, but also mastered many advanced weapons. Xue Yao, Chu Yunxiang and others were caught in a bitter battle, and the situation was precarious.

At this moment, an unexpected person seemed to descend from the sky. Xue Yao looked and saw who else could it be but Master Nan? He had brought an elite army with him, and together with Xue Yao and the others, they successfully defeated that powerful force.

It turned out that he had been secretly following the actions of Xue Yao, Chu Yunxiang and others, and decided to help them at the critical moment.

Murong Chen felt relieved. "General Nan, you arrived just in time. You will be responsible for the follow-up of this matter."

General Nan? He didn't say... Oh, Master Nan is the injured general?
