The carefree sixth prince, my father respectfully invites me to ascend the throne.

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Very well, since that's the case, let's go down and have a good chat with these barbarians."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"By the way, have you taken care of those things I asked you to do before?"

"The arrangements have been completed in secret, as Your Highness instructed."

Yang Ling smiled with satisfaction: "Then let's go."

"Yes!"

……

The Left Wise King had already led his troops to the city gate, waiting for Yang Ling's arrival.

He looked at the imposing army below the city wall, his expression turning somewhat grim.

"Your Highness, the Ninth Prince truly lives up to his reputation, but I didn't expect him to be so young..."

"Hmph, no matter how old he is, he is our enemy!"

The Left Wise King smiled sinisterly.

Yang Ling, however, led Mingyue and the army behind her, step by step, up the city wall.

The two stopped three meters away from them.

"King Zuoxian, I have long admired your great name."

Yang Ling smiled and nodded to the other person.

The man was quite handsome, but Yang Ling wasn't interested in that.

Moreover, now that he knew who the man in front of him was, he had even less interest in him.

"Ninth Prince, what are you doing?" the Left Wise King asked with a stern face.

He always felt that Yang Ling's smile was somewhat strange.

"Hehe, it's nothing. It's just that I happen to be short of a few generals under my command, so I wanted to ask."

Yang Ling chuckled lightly, her tone tinged with sarcasm.

The Left Wise King's heart tightened. Could it be that he was going to lead his troops to surrender?

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Yang Ling frowned impatiently: "I don't want to waste my breath. You'd better think it over carefully."

Mingyue spoke up at the opportune moment: "Left Wise King, our prince's patience is limited."

The Left Wise King narrowed his eyes.

He naturally knew Yang Ling's temperament.

But he certainly wouldn't be willing to surrender just like that.

"Your Highness, I am willing to lead the troops to fight!"

The general standing next to the Left Wise King suddenly stepped forward and said.

The Left Wise King was taken aback.

He turned to look at the man.

The young man was handsome, but his sharp eyes made him wary.

Moreover, he could sense that the other person was exuding a violent aura.

It seems he had seen such a person a long time ago.

"you are?"

The young man coldly curled his lips into a contemptuous smile: "I am... Leng Qiuye."

When the Left Wise King heard this name, his face turned extremely ugly.

Yang Ling watched his reaction with a half-smile, a mocking curve appearing at the corner of her lips.

"Didn't you want to arrest me before? Why are you so scared now that I'm here?"

The Left Wise King's face immediately darkened.

He had witnessed Leng Qiuye's martial arts skills before, and now he also had Mingyue's!

With such a powerful person by his side, how could he possibly defeat him?

"Your Highness, I am willing to lead the troops to fight!"

Another person rushed forward and shouted.

Yang Ling looked closely and realized he recognized the man.

Because he was one of the soldiers sent by the barbarians to hunt him down.

"Heh, alright, no matter how loud your flattery is, it's useless. Do you think I'd let you leave here alive?"

Yang Ling sneered, his eyes becoming even sharper.

The Left Wise King was so frightened that he dared not look him in the eye.

He felt as if he were being pierced all over his body.

"Your Highness, we are willing to go through fire and water for you, and swear to be loyal to you to the death!"

The soldiers said in unison.

This display of force startled the Left Wise King, who took two steps back in alarm.

Yang Ling smiled with satisfaction: "Very good. My army has never lacked people like you! Now I order you to immediately lead your troops and take them down!"

The men all accepted the order and charged toward the barbarian army.

……

"Your Highness, shall we retreat first?"

The guards beside the Left Wise King were so frightened that their legs trembled.

He had never seen such a terrifying person.

Those sharp eyes were like arrows, seemingly capable of piercing their hearts.

"Your Highness..."

The Left Wise King gritted his teeth, staring intently at Yang Ling, his eyes flashing with anger.

"Good! Very good! Ninth Prince, you actually killed all my men today, then prepare to bear the wrath of my barbarians!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

The soldiers quickly retreated.

Just as the Left Wise King was about to leave with his men, he was struck by an arrow that suddenly appeared before he had taken two steps.

"Your Highness!"

"help me……"

His voice stopped abruptly, and his body slowly collapsed to the ground.

Yang Ling watched his falling figure, a cold smile appearing on his lips: "You think you can kill me, Your Highness?"

Mingyue and Leng Qiuye, who were standing behind him, were slightly taken aback.

They hadn't noticed the presence of barbarian troops here.

Yang Ling sneered and walked towards the void behind him: "Come out, all of you!"

The soldiers looked at each other.

Could it be that His Highness has discovered my whereabouts?

They rushed out from all around and knelt down in front of Yang Ling.

"Your subordinate has failed in his duty! Please punish me, Your Highness!"

Yang Ling gave a cold laugh: "Get up, and don't make the same mistake again next time."

"Yes!"

Mingyue looked at the group of people and was surprised.

"Your Highness, what are these?"

Yang Ling smiled and patted her shoulder: "This is the army I have prepared for you. From today onwards, they will go to war with you!"

Mingyue stared in shock at the thousand-strong army.

She never expected Yang Ling to prepare so many elite soldiers for her!

Yang Ling simply smiled indifferently and turned to walk towards Leng Qiuye.

"Autumn Night, I entrust this barbarian army to you."

Leng Qiuye nodded, his face solemn: "Yes, my lord!"

……

Above the main hall of Daliang.

Emperor Liang stared grimly at the messenger who had come to deliver the message.

He never expected that Yang Ling would actually lead his army to take the initiative to attack the barbarians!

"Damn it! Is that kid really that good?"

Emperor Liang's face turned extremely ugly.

Yang Shan immediately knelt down in front of him, his sobs growing louder.

"Father! You must do justice for your son this time!"

Emperor Liang waved his hand impatiently: "Get out of the way!"

All he can think about now is how to get Yang Ling back.

After all, even the barbarians were wary of his strength, let alone the Great Liang Kingdom.

"Your Highness, immediately lead troops to the border and bring Yang Shan back to me!"

"Yes."

"Wait, send a few more men to kill the woman next to him. If he doesn't listen to you, just kill her, but remember, you absolutely cannot hurt her!"

Emperor Liang spoke with a serious expression.

The crown prince was stunned when he heard this.

He never expected that Yang Ling would have such a powerful woman by his side!

"Father, what is the background of this woman?"

Emperor Liang's face darkened.

How could he not want to get rid of the woman beside Yang Ling?

The key issue is... he simply doesn't have that kind of power! And when he sent people to assassinate him before, they hadn't succeeded.

"I don't know either, but remember this: this woman cannot be killed easily!"
