Chapter 261: Su Qingying's Wrath

. He remembered this faint fragrance - it belonged to that woman!What exactly was she He had never seen such an odd acupressure technique, so strange and whimsical, defying logic and establishing its..."Master, your servant is back. I left without permission and hope you will forgive me." Just then, Mo Xuan, who had been missing for many days, rushed in from outside and knelt before Jun Li Ye. The floor hadn't been cleaned yet, with shards of glass scattered across it.

Mo Xuan was still in his usual black attire, but the once-straight waistline had bent slightly. His normally resolute and handsome features were now adorned with a touch of stubble. His eyes were bloodshot, and his entire being emanated a feeling of utter despair, a chilling calmness devoid of any hope or passion.

Su Qingying suddenly felt a sourness in her nose.

She knew that Mo Xuan had become like this because of Xi'er's death, it was a blow to him. Xi'er was his light, and when she died, the lamp in his heart went out...

With a blink, Su Qingying suppressed the tears welling up in her eyes, her expression dimmed. In her eyes was a deep sense of guilt and heartache towards the two of them, "Mo Xuan, you're back, almost dead, almost dead, Xi'er she..."

"Princess Wu, rest assured. Even though I have never formally paid respects to your family, in my heart, Xi'er is already my only wife. I have buried her well." When he spoke of Xi'er, the calmness in his eyes finally stirred with a subtle ripple. The unkempt beard on his handsome face spread a faint and almost imperceptible smile.

But the smile was so heartbreaking, so painful to behold.

He promised Xi'er that he would protect her master well, it was her last wish, and he had to do it, even if it cost him his life, he would never blink an eye!

For him, fulfilling Xi'er's last wish was the only driving force that kept him going.

"Well, that's good then, Mo Xuan, thank you." Su Qingying nodded tearfully.

"Fifth Princess, you flatter me." Mo Xuan shifted his gaze to Jun Liye beside him, his voice unconsciously taking on a hint of respect and solemnity. "Master, I have something important to report."

"Speak," Jun Liye said. Seeing his expression, she knew immediately that the report wouldn't be simple, and she straightened her demeanor slightly.

Several days ago, the Emperor led an army of 800,000 to join forces with the Western Ming's 800,000 troops. Together, they launched a campaign against Dong Yue. Dong Yue was unable to withstand the onslaught and retreated repeatedly. In just half a month, they had lost the three major cities of Jian Kang, Bai Yu, and Hong Ye. Dong Yue is now in a precarious position. Mo Xuan reported all the events that had occurred over the past half month to Jun Li Ye.

These days he had been out, upon learning that Dongyue was attacked, he immediately went to the Regent's Mansion to inform Jun Liye. Unexpectedly, when he arrived, the entire Regent's Mansion was in ruins.

Helpless, he could only wander the area searching for them while keeping a close eye on news of the war in Dongyue. He was anxious and distraught.

Well, at least he found them!

"What! That despicable Shangguan traitor actually teamed up with that dog emperor, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, to attack Dong Yue Bastard! Do they think I'm dead" Su Qingying clenched her fists in anger, standing up furiously. Her heart was filled with worry for Su Ziyi's safety, "Where is my imperial brother What happened to him Is he hurt"

No wonder her right eye has been twitching non-stop these days, it turns out that Shangguan the villain has set his sights on her older brother!

Great, now they have another entry in their account! And that dog emperor Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, just wait for her!

Mo Hyun shook his head gravely, without any pretense, "The Dongyue army was defeated. Fortunately, the Luoyue Palace provided crucial assistance, and we managed to hold our ground at Dongyue until the very end."

"It's a good thing I left Luoyue Palace to my older brother back then." Upon hearing this, Su Qingying's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled.

This time, she was so glad she had made that decision!

If she hadn't given Luoyue Palace to her older brother before, the consequences... Just thinking about it made her break out in a cold sweat.

"By the way, the newly enthroned Southern Border Emperor heard that Dongyue was being attacked by two countries. Upon hearing the news, he immediately led 750,000 troops from the Southern Border to help Dongyue, forming a standoff with Beiling Ximeng." Mo Xuan added.

"Good brother, I was right about him all along! I, Su Qingying, will never forget this kindness! And this sister-in-law, I accept her!" Su Qingying genuinely wanted to hug Zhao Tianyu and give him thirty-two thumbs ups!

"Sister-in-law" Jun Jinghong keenly caught her words, twitching the corner of his eye, and evaded, "Cough, could it be that Tianyu has a penchant for homosexuality"

“No, Tianyu doesn't like men. He just happens to like a man. For his righteousness, even if the Crown Prince disagrees, I will personally pack him up and send him to Tianyu's bed!” Su Qingying stood on a stool with one foot, speaking with such arrogance that it seemed as if she would immediately help someone if Su Ziyue were here.

"Sister-in-law, you're awesome!" Jun Jinghong hastily wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and silently gave her a thumbs up.

Isn't it a bit unfair of you to treat your brother like that Does your elder brother know about this

“Don't get too excited. Even with the support of 750,000 troops from Nanjiang, I estimate that your elder brother and his forces would still only hold out for a month at most. The Northling army has always been renowned for its bravery and skill in battle. Each soldier is a formidable opponent, capable of facing hundreds alone. Coupled with the advanced weaponry from Ximing, it's only a matter of time before Dongyue falls.” Jun Liye’s expression remained grave and unyielding as she analyzed the situation rationally, coldly dousing their enthusiasm.

“Advanced mechanical weaponry Of course! Why didn’t I think of that!” It was like a sudden realization, Su Qingying slapped the table and stood up abruptly. Her agile, pitch-black phoenix eyes seemed to be blooming with countless stars, shining brilliantly. The ethereal and breathtaking beauty of her face broke into an excited smile.

Even if Xuanyuan Gouhuang's weapons are advanced, could they be more advanced than modern weapons As long as she creates those things, even if Shangguan Ji Ren and Xuanyuan Luocheng team up again, what to fear She would still directly crush them!

Well, they've been bullied for so long, it's time they fought back!

This time, she would definitely make them understand deeply why flowers bloom so red!

"Ying'er, you have an idea" Glancing at her eager expression, Jun Liye couldn't help but raise his handsome eyebrows, a look of surprise and astonishment in his eyes.

At this juncture, he was genuinely curious what scheme she could possibly concoct to turn the tide.

"A-Li, how many people can you still command And how many are available" Su Qingying didn't answer, but instead played coy, asking a nonsensical question. But the confidence in her eyes and demeanor dispelled some of the gloom that had weighed on everyone's hearts.

"Though I'm absent, my military orders remain untouched. Shangguan Jianren is also someone I absolutely won't allow to be harmed. One hundred and ten million, will that suffice" Jun Li night caressed her cheek with a doting tenderness, yet his words held an overwhelming domineering aura. An air of supremacy over the world and arrogance towards the heavens emanated from him. rolled her eyes and gave her the middle finger."...." Jun Li stood behind him, the corner of his mouth twitching."You're looking for death! Come, kill her!" Su Qingying's actions only served to furth...
