Regardless of his thoughts, his behavior displeased Ji Yunshuang greatly.

Ji Yunshuang felt that if she went to him at this time and said a few words of warning, it would be like a child making threats, which might not really make him feel threatened and thus make him more cautious about her.

Instead, he tried his best to show his strength, so strong that the other man felt threatened, and that when facing him again, he would think twice before making any decisions.

And Ji Yunshuang's actions did indeed achieve the desired effect.

After listening to the guard's reply, Fu Ci remained silent for a long time before giving him an order that he no longer needed to track her movements.

He is a person who rarely regrets anything.

But this time, he even regretted his previous decision. Perhaps he shouldn't have sent his bodyguards to follow her.

The fact that she could easily shake off his bodyguards shows that her skills are far superior to his bodyguards', and she must have discovered the bodyguards he sent.

His behavior was bound to displease her.

Fortunately, they share the same master and have some bond between them. Out of consideration for that bond, she might not hold it against him.

But seeing his master's pathetic and frustrated appearance, Fu Ci sighed inwardly. It seemed he could no longer count on this master-disciple bond.

He should try to apologize to his junior sister and ask her to forgive his previous recklessness.

Seeing his expression, Xie Liang glared at him and said, "You brat, what do you mean by this?"

"What could I possibly mean?" Fu Ci feigned ignorance and said, "I didn't say anything."

"You didn't say it, but look at the expression on your face," Xie Liang said. "Were you deliberately showing it to your master?"

Those in positions of power should avoid revealing their true feelings by making others guess their intentions.

As the most valued legitimate son of Prince Rui, Fu Ci was personally trained from a young age and had long since developed the habit of not showing his emotions.

His facial expression revealed his true thoughts at a glance, which only showed that he was doing it on purpose.

"Still trying to play tricks on your master?" Xie Liang knew his disciple well enough to know him since childhood. He asked, "What have you done?"

Fu Ci touched the bridge of his nose with his index finger and said somewhat awkwardly, "It's nothing, just... I sent someone to follow Junior Sister."

Xie Liang laughed and said, "And then you got the short end of the stick, didn't you?"

"Hmm, the guard said she's too fast and he can't keep up... My junior sister might have discovered my guard."

Thinking of how Ji Yunshuang used to argue with people, Fu Ci slowly said, "Given Junior Sister's personality, she'll probably be angry!"

Although Xie Liang hadn't been Ji Yunshuang's teacher for many days, he felt he understood Ji Yunshuang's strong sense of right and wrong. He said, "Is there any need to think about it? She's definitely angry."

As he spoke, he recalled his earlier conversation with his apprentice and glared at him again, "So you were deliberately testing your master just now!"

Fu Ci hurriedly replied, "I didn't."

Xie Liang refused to believe him and even stopped playing chess, chasing the man away.

Fu Ci: "..."

I was hoping to get his advice on how to apologize to my junior sister...

Forget it, let him figure it out himself!

Meanwhile, Ji Yunshuang had already used the space as cover once again to enter the Qi army camp.

She had secretly visited the Qi army camp many times and had a very clear understanding of its interior.

She easily reached the outside of the Qi army's granary.

The area around Qi's granary was different from other places. The guards here were very dense, and even if she could use the space to hide, it would be inconvenient for her to get too close.

However, this did not stump her.

She doesn't need to enter the granary; she can sense the situation inside through her mental power from within the space.

She knew exactly what kind of grain was stored in each granary.

She took out five rockets that she had prepared earlier and fired them at five of the grain silos.

The moment the five arrows were fired, the Qi army camp erupted in chaos.

"There are enemy troops!"

"The granary is on fire!"

"Catch him now!"

……

The soldiers surged towards the spot where Ji Yunshuang had fired her arrow, like water flowing between them. But Ji Yunshuang had already hidden herself back into her spatial dimension the moment the arrow was released.

Taking advantage of the chaos in the Qi army camp, he used his telekinesis to replace the grain in the five granaries.

Although the rockets she used were different from ordinary arrows, they wouldn't normally burn up so quickly.

However, she replaced all the grain in the granaries with flammable materials, and the fires in several granaries quickly spiraled out of control.

General Yao was just basking in the joy of his new plan.

Before long, the enemy army had stormed his camp. And without alerting anyone, they broke through layers of guards and set fire to the granary.

A cold sweat broke out in his chest, and he was filled with rage. Did they really think they were invincible just because they had new weapons? How dare they come to his camp?

He grabbed a sword and charged out.

Even with General Yao personally leading the charge and the general's camp surrounded like an iron barrel, they still couldn't catch the arsonist.

On the contrary, the fire was too intense and could not be saved; all the grain was burned to ashes.

What terrified the soldiers even more than the burning of the granaries was the enemy's unpredictable movements.

There were sparks here and loud noises there, making them run frantically towards those places like headless flies.

But when they arrived, they discovered it was a pre-arranged trap that could produce sparks and noises, and there was no one there at all.

They had no idea when the enemy had set up the plan.

And so, he was teased and played around the military camp like a monkey.

Seeing the morale of the entire army camp at an all-time low, Military Advisor Jia was extremely anxious. "General, we must think of a solution quickly! We can't let the soldiers' morale continue to decline like this."

This time, even strategist Guo said, "Yes, if we allow the soldiers' morale to continue to decline like this, our army will surely be defeated."

General Yao could understand this principle, but he had been fighting for many years and had never encountered a situation like this before.

How could a single rocket burn down an entire grain silo so quickly?

He had absolutely no idea what that thing that could produce sparks and loud noises was.

Not to mention the soldiers, even he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic at this moment.

But you absolutely must not panic at this time.

General Yao calmed himself down and ordered Cai Huanzang, the Director of the Armory, to investigate what those weapons that emitted sparks and made loud noises were.

At the same time, he ordered people to check the grain warehouses where the fire had been extinguished to see if any traces could be found.

However, progress has been slow for both the soldiers investigating the granary and the Ordnance Department.

Cai Huanzang looked at the pile of scraps of paper and black dust on the ground, but he couldn't figure out what it was or why it was making such a loud noise.

How does the enemy control these things?
