After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

The answer has been given, and judging from the flower shop owner's reaction, it seems he guessed correctly!

Chen Futu was secretly delighted.

Come to think of it, she is known as the Thousand-Faced Fox, and no one has ever seen her true face. How could such a woman not want to be free and live with her true self? But as Xiao Qi said, they are assassins, tools, and have no choice since childhood.

"So, Miss Stargazing, may I pledge my allegiance to you?" Chen Futu asked softly.

Mr. Hua shook his head. "It still won't work."

"Why? I clearly guessed what you wanted, and I can do it."

"Your Highness guessed correctly, but unfortunately the timing is not right. So, I'm afraid Your Highness will have to trouble you to send me out of the city."

Boss Hua gave an explanation, leaving Chen Futu speechless.

Damn it, she has no sportsmanship!

If my cultivation wasn't sealed, I would definitely use the Sword Saint experience card to take her down.

But it doesn't matter. The ban is only for 24 hours. I might as well play the victim to the end, pretend to be weak and stay by her side. Once the time is up, I'll take her down, tie her up, and take her back to the royal court to slowly discipline her. Let's see if she submits.

The flower shop owner waved his hand, and the flower boat gradually docked.

Boss Hua picked up Feng Yin and played with it, then asked Chen Futu suspiciously, "The young master isn't resisting? This doesn't seem like your domineering style at all."

"I call this a wise person being discerning, and I value you highly and don't want to ruin our relationship."

puff-

Mr. Hua laughed so hard he almost fell over, as if he had heard the funniest thing ever.

Chen Futu said irritably, "Is it that funny?"

"A ruthless butcher who kills without blinking an eye would actually not resist for the sake of an assassin. Should I say you are bold, or should I say you are sentimental?"

"I can be bold, and I can be passionate. I especially like mysterious women, like you."

"You're so glib; Your Highness had better not provoke me."

As the pleasure boat docked, with a whoosh, the sword's edge pressed against Chen Futu's neck. Then, the shopkeeper came up behind him and pressed herself tightly against his ear, whispering, "Young master, be good, or I'll be scared and accidentally hurt you."

"Stargazing girl, we're all civilized people, there's no need to shout about fighting, is there?"

With a smile, Chen Futu was taken hostage by her and dragged out of the cabin.

As soon as the two landed, flames suddenly soared into the sky, and a large army quickly surrounded them. Guan Yu, riding Red Hare, led the way, his Green Dragon Crescent Blade gleaming in the air. Cao Zhen, leading the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, blocked their path.

Many people suddenly appeared on the lake near the ferry; they were the lurking Jinfan pirates.

Gan Ning, with his long sword in his mouth, leaped onto the pleasure boat, the bells jingling, and shouted, "That woman, how dare she harm my lord!"

Looking further afield, An Jingsi, carrying Yu Wangshuo and riding the Red Hunting Horse, had also arrived, followed by the menacing Jingyue Army.

Without uttering a word, a single glance was enough to put Boss Hua on high alert. With the sword pressed tightly against Chen Futu's neck, he barked, "Don't move, or I'll kill him!"

Guan Yu angrily said, "Boss Hua, it's not too late to release the young master. The young master values ​​talent, so don't go down this dark path."

"General Guan, I am all alone and have nothing of value. How could I possibly be of any interest to the young master? Why don't you generals make way for me? Once I leave Longcheng, I will ensure the young master's safety."

"Do you think I'll believe you later?" Guan Yu opened his eyes, his murderous gaze putting immense pressure on the group of female waitresses. They all gathered around Boss Hua, each one as if facing a formidable enemy.

Just then, another group of people appeared in the distance. The female general in charge was beautiful and valiant in silver armor. It was Li Xiuning, who had just returned to Longcheng. She stared at Boss Hua and scolded, "Why haven't you released my lord yet?"

“A-Ning is back too.”

Chen Futu greeted Li Xiuning with a cheerful smile, his hands clasped behind his back; he hardly looked like a hostage.

Seeing this, everyone was slightly puzzled, as the prince did not appear to have been kidnapped.

The shopkeeper whispered, "Young Master, aren't you going to have your men leave?"

"Even stargazing girls have moments of fear?"

"They are all unparalleled warriors. Let alone us mere Xiantian cultivators, even a Grandmaster would be afraid."

Even a powerful wizard like An Jingsi is no match for him, let alone Guan Yu, whose combat strength is more than enough to defeat a Grandmaster. As for Cao Zhen and Gan Ning, they are not ordinary Xiantian (innate) beings. Even the weakest one, Li Xiuning, can fight against a Xiantian-level Hu warrior.

Thinking of this, Chen Futu waved his hand and said, "Alright, you can all disperse. There's no need to follow me. She won't kill me."

"My lord, no."

The generals shouted, refusing to let them pass.

Chen Futu frowned and said, "Don't you even obey my military orders?"

The generals exchanged glances before reluctantly making way.

Chen Futu said to Guan Yu, "Yun Chang, and all of you, if anything happens to me tonight, you should support Qin Liangyu to ascend the throne and succeed as the King of the Northern Frontier. Then, we should gather our strength, first destroy the Great Qian, then destroy the Northern Wu and the Hu people, to avenge my father."

"Lord!"

"Act according to orders."

"Here!"

The generals bowed and accepted the order.

Looking at the overwhelming resentment in Li Xiuning's eyes, Boss Hua subconsciously opened her mouth, but ultimately fell into a speechless silence.

Only now did she realize that killing Chen Futu was useless; the world was bound to descend into chaos.

Given Qin Liangyu and these generals' loyalty to Chen Futu, they would become extremely fanatical if Chen Futu died. Furthermore, with the military strength of the northern frontier and those formidable strategists, the world would face an unprecedented catastrophe, and the devastation would likely be no less than the chaos of the Ten Kingdoms hundreds of years ago.

"Okay, let's go."

Chen Futu calmly brushed the sword blade away from his neck.

Boss Hua hesitated for a moment, then sheathed her sword and stopped threatening her. She knew that Chen Futu valued her and wouldn't embarrass her at this time.

Then someone led in several horses, the one in the lead being the majestic Longlin.

Chen Futu smiled at Boss Hua and said, "I am too weak to mount a warhorse right now. Would you like to give me a ride?"

Hua Laoban bit her lip and mounted the dragon scale first, then pulled Chen Futu onto the warhorse as well. As soon as Chen Futu mounted the horse, he put his arm around her slender waist. She whispered angrily, "Young Master, please don't touch me."

"You drugged me, and you won't even let me hold you. If I fall and something happens to me, will you take responsibility?"

"you……"

Boss Hua was speechless. She had never seen anyone so shameless. Moreover, she wondered when the young master had drugged her. In her opinion, he must have slept with some woman before he arrived, and his excessive indulgence had led to his weakness in his limbs.

And so, amidst the strange looks of the generals, the group rode away.

Cao Zhen muttered, "What's going on with our lord? It seems like he's deliberately taking us hostage?"

Li Xiuning spat, "I think he's having another episode. He can't walk past pretty girls!"

Guan Yu was both amused and exasperated. He called everyone back to camp, saying they would discuss everything once the young master returned.

An Jingsi wanted to follow at a distance, but Guan Yu stopped him, saying, "No need. There was no murderous intent on Boss Hua just now, so he shouldn't have any ill intentions towards the young master. Besides, the young master is so smart, how could he easily put himself in danger?"

After a moment's thought, everyone realized that the young master was adept at manipulating people's hearts. His earlier remarks about Qin Liangyu succeeding him after his death were probably meant for Boss Hua's ears. Boss Hua knew that killing him would be pointless, so why would he continue to offend the Northern Frontier and incur so much hatred?
