Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

"Don't say but, since the Bodhisattva has said so, you should just go back quickly!

It is a rare fate that you and I have the opportunity to meet each other.

To be honest, I sincerely hope that you can live in peace and peace forever.

You are a majestic ancient beast, possessing immense power. How could you ever humble yourself and remain inferior to a mortal like me?!"

Shen Qingge spoke to comfort him sincerely.

Hearing these words, Shui Qilin couldn't help but be deeply moved, and a huge wave of emotion was set off in his heart.

It stood there quietly, its eyes flickering, obviously going through an extremely intense ideological struggle.

After a long while, the Water Qilin finally made up his mind and said slowly:

"Very well then! When my body recovers and I transform into a human form again, I will definitely come to the lower world to find you!"

After saying that, Shui Qilin stared at Shen Qingge, his eyes full of reluctance.

Shen Qingge smiled and nodded, but the moment she glanced sideways, tears welled up in her eyes.

Isn’t it the same for the water qilin?

They once shared hardships and were the master and spirit beast with telepathy!

Seeing Shen Qingge like this, it was also very sad.

But it still tried to control its emotions, turned its head to look at Xiao Heng beside Shen Qingge, its face suddenly became serious, and said sternly:

"After I leave this time, you will be the only one left by Qingge's side who can protect her!

So you must remember to take good care of her and never let her down.

If one day you dare to do something to hurt her, even if I have returned to the upper realm, I will never let you off easily!"

Faced with Shui Qilin's warning, Shen Qingge suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She lowered her head slightly, bit her lips tightly, and remained silent.

On the other hand, Xiao Heng on the side was very calm and composed. He bowed directly to the Water Qilin and swore solemnly:

"I swear here before the Bodhisattva that as long as Qingge is willing, I will treat her wholeheartedly and stay with her for the rest of my life, never leaving her.

I will use all my love to protect her and care for her. If I break my oath, I will be punished by God!"

"Haha... this is so good, it's really unexpected!

I originally just wanted to take advantage of my free time today to sit quietly and meditate to calm my mind, but I never expected to encounter such a joyful event!

The face of Wuliang Bodhisattva was filled with joy and his laughter was very hearty.

Then, he slightly restrained his smile, looked at Shui Qilin, and softly "scolded":

"Shui Qilin, Shui Qilin, you should be relieved now, right?

Don't hesitate any longer, just leave with me!"

After saying this, Wuliang Bodhisattva waved his hand gently, and the water qilin disappeared with him into the phantom mirror.

When the phantom mirror returned to silence again, Shen Qingge could no longer suppress her inner reluctance and covered her face with tears.

At this moment, Xiao Heng, who had been standing not far away and watching her silently, did not choose to avoid her like he did in the past.

Instead, he slowly walked towards Shen Qingge, stretched out his arms, and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Feeling Xiao Heng's warm embrace, Shen Qingge's originally tense body trembled slightly, and then completely relaxed, allowing herself to immerse in this rare tenderness.

Xiao Heng lowered his head, leaned close to Shen Qingge's ear, and whispered softly:

"Cry as much as you want! You've suffered a lot these past few days.

From now on, even without the Water Qilin, I will be your most solid support.

No matter what difficulties or obstacles you encounter, I will always be by your side and protect you."

After saying that, he gently raised one hand and gently stroked Shen Qingge's hair with an extremely tender gesture.

At this moment, Shen Qingge, nestled in Xiao Heng's arms, was no longer the heroic female general who had galloped across the battlefield, slaying countless enemies. She was now merely a delicate woman who needed to be cared for and cherished by her beloved.

So, she leaned quietly on Xiao Heng's broad and strong shoulders, letting her tears flow freely, venting the long-accumulated fatigue, pain and all kinds of complex and unspeakable emotions.

It was unknown how long it took before Shen Qingge's crying gradually stopped.

She took a deep breath, then gently pushed Xiao Heng away and stood up again. Although her eyes were still red and swollen, her eyes had regained their former clarity and determination.

She straightened her messy hair, adjusted her clothes, and then said to Xiao Heng with a serious face:

"Your Highness, let's discuss the current situation first!

This is the second time that Xiyue Country has sent people here. Although it seems that their target is only me, in my opinion, they have not succeeded this time. They may become desperate and resort to some insidious and cunning means again, which may bring harm to our Nanyue Country.

On the other hand, there has been no movement from Xiao Mo of Beiling Country in the past two months since the remnants of the Zhenbei Army came to join us.

This unusual calmness made me feel uneasy, and I always felt that something big was about to happen.

Therefore, after careful consideration, I believe that the most urgent task at present is to recruit troops on a large scale and actively prepare military forces to deal with the possible threat of war.

After all, if we fail to make adequate preparations for battle in advance, the consequences will be disastrous if the enemy launches an attack from multiple directions at the same time.

I wonder what your Highness thinks about this matter?"

However, Xiao Heng did not respond after hearing her words. He just gently held her hand, looked at her with gentle and concerned eyes, and said slowly:

"Qingge, I know that everything you do is out of your deep concern for the country and the people.

But today, your injuries have not healed yet, and you just parted with the Water Qilin, so you must be exhausted both physically and mentally.

So, let's put aside these heavy state affairs for now and have a good rest and relax, okay?"

After saying that, Xiao Heng took Shen Qingge's hand without saying anything and walked towards where the phantom mirror was.

Shen Qingge looked at him with confusion, completely unable to guess what he was trying to do.

At this time, Xiao Heng showed a faint smile and explained softly:

"Today, I'll let you be a little selfish for once.

Haven't you always wanted to know the whereabouts of your father and brother and how they are doing?

Right now, the Phantom Mirror is right before your eyes. Why not take advantage of this opportunity to explore it?"

Hearing this, Shen Qingge slapped her forehead as if she had just woken up from a dream, and couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed. She actually forgot such an important thing!

The next moment, she was again filled with trepidation as she silently recited the incantation and activated the phantom mirror...
