Empress’ Conquest - C280 decisive determination
“Alliance Head is indeed wise!” Sure enough! When all 10,000 ‘Heaven Soldiers’ had risen into the air, Leng Ao Tian gave the order, and the army of nearly 100,000 people charged towards the city gate tower. At the same time, Leng Ao Tian also sent out the signal, ordering the ‘Heaven Soldiers’ to shoot down the rocket! He had thought that everything would go smoothly, but he had never expected that the so-called “heavenly weapons” would all fall down one by one at this very moment. The flames on the city gate tower shot up into the sky! All of the ambushing soldiers suddenly stood up and flung their torches down the stairs. All of the arrows were shot out at the same time. The first round of attacks was launched by Xiao Jing in less than two hours!
“Your Majesty! We’ve fallen into a trap! Our “heavenly soldiers” were being shot down by them one by one! The army on the land was also utterly defeated … Your majesty! Retreat! Otherwise, our losses will be incalculable! ” Zheng Kui never thought that the situation would be reversed, the advantage became the disadvantage!
“Retreat… “Retreat!” Leng Ao Tian did his best to suppress his anger. His handsome cold eyes flashed with a biting cold light as he clenched his teeth and gave the order.
What Zheng Kui and Leng Ao Tian didn’t expect was that the city gates suddenly opened. Nearly a hundred thousand soldiers and horses rushed out like a flood to chase them down. The one hundred thousand soldiers of the First Army were almost completely annihilated …
Returning to Ling Yang, Leng Ao Tian, Zheng Kui, and Xia Hou Ming counted the number of soldiers. This battle had lasted less than two hours, yet they had lost nearly eighty thousand soldiers. This was not something Leng Ao Tian had expected! Even Zheng Kui and Xia Hou had not expected such a situation to occur!
Seeing the wounded soldiers and the handicapped veterans, Leng Ao Tian clenched his fists and chuckled loudly. He felt extremely guilty in his heart …
“General Zheng …” “Rest well with the soldiers …” He turned around. The light in Leng Ao Tian’s eyes dimmed as he left the army camp …
“The Emperor …” Zheng Kui wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xia Hou Mingxuan.
“Let Lord Shu rest by himself …” Zheng Kui and Xia Hou Ming looked at each other and could not help but shake their heads.
Returning to the general’s manor, Leng Ao Tian quickly walked to Xu Bi Xuan’s room. He pushed the door open and sat down on the edge of the table, a glimmer in his dark eyes.
Bi Xuan … What do I do… What should I do … I have wasted so many lives just for my own selfish desire! How am I worthy of being the Emperor! How could he be worthy of being the king?! Bi Xuan … Where are you…
Tears rolled down from the corners of Leng Ao Tian’s eyes. The lives of 80,000 soldiers had perished because of his wrong decision, Leng Ao Tian’s heart felt like it was being sliced by knives, his regret could not be put into words, he crawled over to the side of the table, Leng Ao Tian thought for a long time, suddenly, Leng Ao Tian abruptly stood up, wanting to rush out, he wanted to save Bi Xuan!
However, as soon as he opened the door, a white mist sprayed out. When Leng Ao Tian saw who it was, he couldn’t help but stare with wide eyes.
“Yuerong?!” “You …” Without waiting for Leng AoTian to finish speaking, his entire body crashed onto the ground.
Great Shu Imperial City Cold Palace
Hugging Qiang Er, Xu Bixuan squatted down with half-closed eyes, staring intently at the deep hole in front of her. From time to time, she would glance back at the commotion outside the palace gates!
After almost an hour, Su Man He finally revealed his strength!
“Bi Xuan.” “Help me …” Xu Bixuan held the child with one hand, her other hand reaching out to viciously pull Su Manhe down!
“This… Where did you dig? ” Xu Bixuan peeked her head in. It was just a patch of darkness, and nothing could be seen clearly!
“Based on my previous impression, the Cold Palace should be about 100 steps away from the outer wall of the forest. I can now walk 85 steps! If all goes well, we can escape in three or four days! ” Su Man He excitedly patted off the wet soil on his body. Perhaps the rain from last night was so heavy that even three feet of the ground were soaked!
“Three to four days …” “I hope that I can make it in time …” Xu Bixuan saw that Qiang’er who was in her arms seemed to want to wake up, so she quickly shook her head!
“What time is it …” Are you afraid… “Leng Ao Tian will personally run to the Imperial City to save you?” Su Manhe frowned. It wasn’t as if there were no such possibilities. Su Manhe had clearly seen the feelings that Leng Ao Tian had for Xu Bixuan!
That won’t happen…” With Yuerong here, he believed that she would stop the arrogance of the heavens! I’m just scared… Sigh … “Come, Qiang’er has woken up. Carry him!” Xu Bixuan gently handed the infant in her arms to Su Manhe and moved the square table back to its original position! Three to four days …
Just as Xu Bixuan had moved the table back to its original position, the palace doors were pushed open by someone. The sunlight shone down, and the royal robe shone brighter and brighter!
“Looks like the two of you have gotten along quite well …” His cold voice carried a bone-piercing chill as it seeped out from Li Ao Yu’s lips!
When Suman He saw Li Ao Yu hugging his son tightly, he curled up in a corner.
“You … are you here to capture me and threaten Leng Ao Tian? ” Xu Bixuan’s heart fiercely throbbed. Her eyebrows furrowed for a moment before her expression became calm, without a trace of fear!
Li Ao Yu remained silent, his eyes cold as he walked step by step towards Xu Bi Xuan.
“Do you really think that Leng Ao Tian can win this battle? Winning me?! ”
“Yes!” I am convinced! ” Xu Bixuan said coldly, her sharp eyes fixed on Li Ao Yu’s face!
“Is that so …” Heh! Then you must be disappointed, last night’s battle, Leng Ao Tian lost one hundred thousand soldiers. As far as I know, he’s only one hundred thousand men out of one hundred thousand men, so he’s only losing three hundred thousand! You said… “Will he win?” Li Ao Yu avoided Xu Bi Xuan and said coldly! Suddenly, his heart froze. He couldn’t help but lower his eyes. He was looking at the soil under his feet! How can there be wet soil here if you can’t leave the palace?! Li Ao Yu’s gaze started to sweep across the entire imperial harem, and finally locked onto the side wall’s square table!
“Since you won the battle, why did you come here? I believe I am of no use to you right now! ” Xu Bixuan seemed to have noticed Li Aoyu’s gaze and his heart tightened. He quickly took two steps forward and stood in front of Li Aoyu. His eyes were cold like ice, and his body blocked the direction of the square table!
“Bi Xuan … I think you’re overthinking. I just want to see if you need anything! If there is, I will do my best to satisfy you! Trust me! “I didn’t mean to take you hostage. I’ll make it up to you once everything has calmed down …” The cold light in Li Ao Yu’s eyes relaxed a little as he moved closer to Xu Bi Xuan’s side. A wave of disgust forced Xu Bi Xuan to take a few steps back!
“No need!” Xu Bixuan snapped fiercely!
“It is not up to you to decide whether or not you want it!” “Humph!” Li Ao Yu’s eyes suddenly turned cold as he reached out his hand to clamp onto Xu Bi Xuan’s jaw. His thin lips had a trace of a vulgar smile!
“Wow!” Suddenly, the infant in Su Manhe’s arms cried out, making Li Ao Yu upset. He shook off Xu Bi Xuan and turned to glare at Su Manhe, a bone-chilling coldness in his eyes!
“Don’t cry …” Don’t cry… Your Majesty … Right. “Sorry …” Su Man He’s eyes drooped down as he held Qiang Er in his arms. His heart was filled with fear!
Li Ao Yu fiercely glared at Su Man He, turned her head and left the cold palace! Xu Bixuan rushed in front of Su Manhe and looked at him with a pained expression. A bruise had appeared on her fair wrist!
“Manhe…” “Thank you …” Xu Bixuan’s bright eyes emitted a layer of mist. She was very clear about where Qiang Er occupied in Su Manhe’s heart. It was just a pinch, yet Su Manhe’s heart ached so much …
General Ling Yang’s Estate
As the sky gradually brightened, the drowsy, cold, and proud Heavenly character lying on the bed ruthlessly clutched his forehead. When he opened his eyes, he discovered that he was lying in Xu Bixuan’s room!
Leng Ao Tian stood up abruptly, thinking back to everything that had happened last night. He had originally wanted to save Bi Xuan, why would he fall asleep? Yuerong? At that moment, the wooden door creaked open as Yin Yuerong walked into the room with her breakfast!
“The emperor is awake?” Yin Yuerong placed her breakfast lightly on the table, turned around and walked towards Leng Ao Tian!
“Moon… “Why did you …” Leng AoTian looked at Yin Yuerong doubtfully.
“Why did you drug the Emperor? Why did you stop the emperor from coming to the capital to save Bi Xuan? Is that so? ” Yin Yuerong pursed her lips, revealing her thoughts.
“You … “How do you know …” Leng Ao Tian got off the bed, slightly embarrassed. He walked to the side of the table, not daring to look Yin Yuerong in the eye. He knew that if he could come back like this, it would be fine, but if he couldn’t … How could he live up to the soldiers who fought their way here …
“This is not important… Your majesty, are you really going to charge into the Imperial City alone to save Bi Xuan? Do you really think that this is what Bi Xuan wants as well? Your Majesty … You’re too impulsive! When Luo Jinye came back, he made it very clear! Bi Xuan was trapped in the cold palace, and Li Ao Yu had even asked the Evil God to watch over her! In other words, Bi Xuan’s life was not in danger! But if you go, the result will be different! The reason why Li Ao Yu captured Bi Xuan is to get rid of you! Please forgive Yuerong, if you go, you will die without a doubt! If you had anything to do, would Bi Xuan have lived alone in this world? You are not so reckless to save Bi Xuan! It hurt her! Your Majesty … Every one of us is worried about Bi Xuan! They all want to rescue Bi Xuan as soon as possible! ” Yin YueRong was moved, and Leng Ao Tian couldn’t help but lower his eyes.
“Moon… I’ve made you all worry! ” Just as Leng Ao Tian spoke out, Chu Jian suddenly rushed in!
“Reporting to the emperor …”
“What is it?” Leng Ao Tian looked to Chu Jian Chen with a sharp gaze.
“Reporting to Your Majesty … Lord Chu… “We’ve already led two hundred thousand soldiers to the barracks …” From the very beginning, Chu Jian knew the inextricable relationship between Leng Ao Tian and Murong Che. Although these two hundred thousand men were like a gift from the snow, she believed that the emperor would not think this way …
“What?!” Are you saying that Murong Che … “It’s here …” Coldly staring at Chu Jian, her heart skipped a beat. Why was he here? Two hundred thousand soldiers?
Chu Jian nodded in agreement.
“What about him?” Yin Yuerong did not expect that Murong Che would rush over at such a critical time. It really was the heavens helping Big Shu!
“He’s heading here right now …” “We should be at the entrance by now …” Chu Jian didn’t dare to say anything. Murong Che’s face was frozen, and his eyes were like daggers …
“Your Majesty …” Yin Yuerong was about to open her mouth to urge Leng Ao Tian to put more importance on this matter, but he had already stepped out of the room before she could open her mouth!
Sure enough, when Leng Ao Tian walked out of his room, he saw Murong Che walking quickly towards him, his gloomy face was covered in a layer of ice. His every move was filled with power, and it was as if his entire body was filled with energy, ready to explode at any moment!
“Lord Chu is a thousand miles away …” Leng Ao Tian opened his mouth to answer but was knocked to the ground by Murong Che’s sudden punch!
“Leng Ao Tian! How did you protect Bi Xuan!?” How did she end up in Li Ao Yu’s hands? Why?! “You bastard!” Murong Che bit down hard, and his entire body moved forward to launch another punch, but he was stopped by Shui Ruo Han behind him!
“Calm down!” “Calm down!” Shui Ruo Han didn’t think that Murong Che would have such a huge reaction. Didn’t they say it was fine when they were on the road, that it wouldn’t be impulsive?!
“Your majesty!” Seeing this, Chu Jian quickly ran over to help Leng Ao Tian up. The corner of her mouth had a tinge of red to it!
“Lord Chu… “You …” Chu Jian didn’t think that Murong Che would be so ruthless!
“Shut up!” “Murong Che …” Leng Ao Tian pushed aside Chu Jian, and flung a fist towards Murong Che!
“Ugh …” Shui Ruo Han looked at Leng Ao Tian in astonishment. Wasn’t this hurting her? He was holding Murong Che’s hand in reverse!
“Shui Ruo Han!” Which gang are you from! ” Murong Che fiercely broke away from Murong Che’s hand, his eyes as cold as knives!
“This… “This has nothing to do with me …” Looking at the bloodstain on the corner of Murong Che’s mouth, Shui Ruo Han was all smiles!
“Humph!” Murong Che glared fiercely at Shui Ruo Han, then he glared at Leng Ao Tian, his expression cold to the bone!
“Murong Che! Bi Xuan was indeed taken away by my hands! I, Leng Ao Tian, swear to the heavens that I will save Bi Xuan no matter the cost! If Bi Xuan was missing a single strand of hair, I, Leng Ao Tian, will repay it with my life! As for your two hundred thousand … ”
“The two hundred thousand soldiers are not here for you!” Instead … “It is to protect the interests of Chu. I did not wish for Li Ao Yu to take over the government …” After all, he was the ruler of a nation. After his impulsive actions, Murong Che forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart. If others knew that he had sent out troops for Xu Bixuan, how would the soldiers and soldiers in the army guess …
