The guard who secretly sighed nodded: “I will send someone to bring the horse to Miss Bai. Do you have any words for Miss Bai?”

“Bring words?!”

Xiao Rongyan looked at the white steed with eyes washed clean by the rain, and after a moment of thought, he said: “Just tell her, thank you for taking care of me all this way!”

From Qufen he accompanied the Jin Kingdom’s expeditionary army until he parted from the Jin Army. Bai Qingyan never revealed his identity to the Crown Prince. Isn’t that considered looking after him all the way?

Even if Bai Qingyan had really exposed his identity to the Crown Prince, he would have had ways to deal with it. But Bai Qingyan never did such a thing.

“Besides this, is there anything else… you want to tell the fourth lady of the Bai family?” The guard cautiously tested his master’s intentions.

Xiao Rongyan glanced back at his guard with a meaningful expression and raised his brows: “Then kindly ask the fourth lady to take good care of Miss Bai.”

Guard: “…”

Were his master’s words said in reverse?!

Xiao Rongyan turned to look at the pure white steed, then said: “Forget it, have someone bring a letter to Miss Bai…”

The Xiliang army was crushed. Yun Poxing lost hundreds of thousands of troops in one night. Moreover, his son and grandson both died, angering him to spit blood and leaving him unconscious until now!

The Xiliang army didn’t even dare to stay in Fengcheng. They bypassed Fengcheng and retreated to Luofeng Canyon. Just as they were about to set up camp, they saw the black sail and white python banner of the Bai family army approaching and immediately retreated to the border. _{freēwēbηovel.c૦m}

The Nanyan army, which had been slowly retreating to Yao Pass, heard that the Xiliang army had tucked their tails between their legs and fled to the border between Xiliang and Jin. Nanyan’s Commander Zhang Tiansheng instead had the Nanyan army camp not far from Yao Pass at Fengming Mountain.

Zhang Tiansheng thought they couldn’t expend such national power and return without achieving something. He wanted to wait and see. When Jin’s army went to pursue the Xiliang army, he would seize Fengcheng and at least demand some compensation for their mobilization from the Jin Kingdom!

But just after nightfall, news came from Yao Pass. Provisions and supplies for the Nanyan army’s winter, escorted by Zhang Tiansheng’s son, were robbed by Bai family soldiers at Yao Pass!

Zhang Tiansheng’s face turned white instantly. He bit his lip, feeling both frightened… and resentful of the endless Bai family soldiers.

“Commander, this can’t go on! Without winter provisions and supplies, if we stay in the Jin Kingdom, we’ll end up like the Xiliang army and have our elite troops buried in flames!” The Vice Commander, recalling the battle in Wengshan Canyon, was terrified. “I heard this time the Jin Kingdom’s Crown Prince led the army. The one advising him was Bai Weiting’s eldest granddaughter, the same Bai Qingyan who once beheaded Pang Pingguo of the Shu Kingdom! This Bai Qingyan, though a woman, is ruthless and entirely different from Bai Weiting’s leadership. She is like the God of Slaughter incarnate, not to be trifled with!”

Zhang Tiansheng stroked his beard, sat in his command tent for a long time, and finally nodded in fear of the still-burning great fire in Wengshan Canyon: “I will write a memorial. Send someone on a fast horse back to the Capital to let His Majesty decide if we should withdraw!”
