Chapter 242: The Wind Blows, Buttcheeks Feel The Coldness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Eastern Border of Great Chu…

Deep in the mountains, Yan Luoying’s battalion walked slowly.

Yan Luoying’s eyes were currently ruthlessly cold.

The march of her army was completely different from the marching of an individual.

Without enough spirit artifacts to carry military rations, the soldiers could only rely on themselves.

They had already been gone for ten days, and the rations they had were quickly dwindling.

This time, she brought a total of 50,000 men and warhorses.

After Yan Ze destroyed several cities, he obtained a lot of money and horses, as well as nearly 70,000 additional soldiers.

Thus, he already had a total of 150,000 troops.

Yan Luoying led the army and slowly advanced through the forest. Finally, someone from the advance party rushed over.

“General, we have reached the end of the forest!”

When this news was released, all the soldiers felt a jolt in their spirits.

Yan Luoying said coldly, “All soldiers, rest on the spot! According to the map, after we leave this place, it will be Peng City. When it gets dark, it will be time for us to make contributions.”

Since the main battlefield was blocked, Yan Luoying made a bold decision. She brought her men through the forest to attack the city behind the enemy.

The sky gradually turned dark.

These days, Yan Luoying’s prestige in the army had increased very quickly.

At the end of the day, anyone would think highly of the commander if they commanded a powerful Army Formation such as the Breaking Ranks Formation.

Otherwise, the long journey of fifteen days would definitely cause most of the soldiers to collapse.

It was already late at night, and on top of the Peng City walls, the few guards were slowly nodding off.

The frontline city was hundreds of miles wide. In the minds of ordinary people, they did not think that this place would be raided.

Most importantly, the value of raiding Peng City was actually very low.

To put it bluntly, no matter where one was, once they broke through this city, they would be surrounded on all sides. What was the use of attacking them?

However, they never expected Yan Luoying to do this!

“Kill!”

In the middle of the night, flames soared into the sky.

The well-rested Chu soldiers had already charged towards the city walls!

In an instant, everyone within the city lost all their courage!

“Run!”

This was the first reaction of most people.

Not everyone was willing to sacrifice their lives for their country in the face of such a formidable enemy.

Especially against this sort of unprepared surprise attack.

Yan Luoying shouted from outside the city, “Guard the west side. Kill anyone who escapes from the west gate!”

She did not care about the other city gates!

“Breaking Ranks, kill with me!”

The soldiers rushed to the top of the city wall and opened the city gate. Yan Luoying led her troops straight in.

The governor of Peng City panicked when he heard about the enemy’s ambush.

He went out and wanted to organize people to defend the city, what greeted him was flames everywhere in the city, and the sounds of killing shook the sky.

He gritted his teeth and returned to the residence, shouting, “Quickly get up and retreat!”

He also thought it through clearly. Peng City was located in the hinterlands of Ji Luo. Even if it was breached, there was still a chance to seize it back. It was rather unwise to defend it to the death here.

However, just as he turned around…

Yan Luoying had already charged over with her Breaking Ranks Army members.

Old Zhou was carrying a person in his hand. When that person saw Gao Fu, he immediately pointed at him and said, “That’s Commander Gao!”

When Gao Fu saw Yan Luoying and the others, he was terrified!

Before he could escape, he was captured alive by Yan Luoying’s subordinates.

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of her, Yan Luoying smiled!

Two days later, the vast army arrived at the front line of Zhuoping Pass.

The garrison commander here, Cao He, was quite capable. He was at the peak of 9th Grade Earth Rank and had 70,000 troops stationed in the inner camp, blocking Yan Ze for many days.

Under the city pass, the leader of the ‘army’ stepped out. It was Gao Fu.

He shouted, “General Cao, I am the Governor of Peng City. I am under the orders of Great General He Lanku, to lead the army to support the general in case of any accidents.”

“Please open the city gate and let us enter!”

Cao He was someone who knew Gao Fu personally, thus he did not suspect a thing and opened the gates.

The army slowly entered the city. Seeing that they were halfway in, Yan Luoying, who was pretending to be a guard beside Gao Fu, suddenly pushed him away and shouted, “Kill!”

Under her command, the soldiers who entered the city drew their long sabers and slashed at the people beside them!

In reality, Yan Luoying’s suggestion was not to occupy Peng City!

Instead, after taking down Peng City, she would lead her men to counterattack Zhuoping Pass. It would be best if she could use an identity of one of the influential people in Peng City to cheat others.

Needless to say, her gamble paid off.

Ji Luo was on the east side of Great Chu, which meant that Great Chu bordered on the west side of Ji Luo.

Thus, the front line of the two armies was also on the west side of Ji Luo.

That was the reason why Yan Luoying ordered people to block the West Gate when they attacked Peng City!

She wanted to eliminate the possibility that the others would run to Zhuo Ping Pass to report.

She captured Gao Fu and forced him to be her spy.

Obviously, Gao Fu agreed.

She led her men and ran for hundreds of miles in two days, arriving at Zhuo Ping Pass.

Taking advantage of the fact that the guards and generals were unaware of the chaos behind, they allowed Gao Fu to open the city gates.

While she was shouting, Old Zhou had already taken out his flare and released it into the air.

After a sharp sound, Yan Ze and the others appeared in front of Zhuo Ping Pass.

They attacked from both sides, and Yan Luoying also brought out her Breaking Ranks Formation.

In their simulations, Yan Luoying had a high chance of winning!

Even if they were seen through and suddenly attacked from two directions, the chances of them taking down the pass would still be greatly increased.

However, it was obvious that Yan Luoying looked up to Cao He. He had easily fallen into the trap.

The main thing was that he did not expect that something would happen behind his own lines.

This also had to be said that after the incident, most of the people in Peng City’s first thought was that the front line had been lost. Who would run hundreds of miles past the front line?

Anyone who wanted to live would definitely walk in the other direction towards the capital instead.

In addition, Yan Luoying had blocked the West Gate, thus no news could be leaked outwards.

Furthermore, Gao Fu was an internal official of Ji Luo Country. His appearance greatly lowered Cao He’s guard.

With these factors added together, the city gate opened.

As for Peng City itself, Yan Luoying had no intention of guarding it.

It could even be said that Peng City was a bait to attract reinforcements from other directions. The cities around Peng City were currently sending troops to help Peng City!

Yan Luoying’s soldiers charged into the pass while Yan Ze led his troops from the outside. Under the combined attacks from both sides, Cao He was helpless!

The original strategy of defending the city had indeed affected Yan Ze and his daughter. However, this time, Yan Luoying had made a great contribution.

After breaking through Zhuoping Pass, the Yan family father and daughter split into three teams and destroyed five cities in ten days!

The royal court of both countries were shaken.

Xiang Feiyan was really happy. The more land the Yan Father-Daughter pair conquered, the more correct her decision would be.

At the same time, her trust in Su Wen rose to a new level.

Because the person Su Wen recommended was clearly very reliable.

It was the same for Su Yu and the rest of the military side.

And now, Su Changqing had also entered the royal court.

Many people were very curious about this former prime minister of the Great Zhou.

However, this world had all sorts of strange methods, so it was not particularly unacceptable.

And just as Su Changqing had expected, these people were staring at the seat Zhang Yong had left behind.

The battle began.

The unresolved position of prime minister became a hot commodity in everyone’s eyes.

That was the position that all the civil officials dreamed of.

In Great Zhou.

Outside the royal capital, a young monk walked over with a face full of smiles.

This was not his first time in the capital.

He stood in front of the Royal Decree at the city gate and looked at it for a while before entering the city.

The moment he entered the city, Emperor Zhou in the palace had already discovered him!

“A Heaven Rank expert entered the city?! Su Wen! Is he here to cause trouble again?”

During this period of time, Su Wen did not come much.

However, Emperor Zhou’s sensitive nerves had long been triggered by Su Wen.

This caused him to react excessively to any small trigger. ut he immediately realized that something was wrong. Why would Su Wen come in through the city gate?

In the city, the young monk came up to the fried vermicelli stall.

“Boss, a bowl of minced meat fried vermicelli with extra meat!” The young monk smiled happily.

He did not care about the gazes of others.

The lady boss still remembered the little monk. After all, Su Wen had saved her the last time he was present, so she had a deep impression of everyone that day.

She said in a low voice, “Little Monk, you won’t be punished by your master for eating meat, right?”

The little monk raised the crystal clear skull on his chest and smiled. “It’s fine. Look, my master is already dead…”

The female boss’s face turned pale.

She did not dare to say anything else and quickly went to make the noodles.

Meanwhile, the young monk took a seat at a table.

Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him.

Si Tu!

Si Tu narrowed his eyes. This was not Su Wen!

He had come under the orders of the Zhou Emperor to investigate, but he did not expect it to not be Su Wen.

“Little Monk, why have you come back to the capital?” Si Tu smiled and asked.

He remembered the little monk, but hadn’t expected him to already be a Heaven Rank expert.

Zhizhen smiled. “I’m here to eat vermicelli and treat your emperor.”

“Hiss!” Si Tu’s eyes lit up. The thing that Emperor Zhou hoped for the most now was to become a normal man!

This young monk had a solution?

He was overjoyed. “Then I will accompany you. Finish your meal quickly and I will bring you into the palace…”

Su Wen did not know what had happened in the capital.

These few days, he didn’t bother to visit the Great Zhou capital.

How should he put it… after Old Su returned…

Su Wen’s hatred for Emperor Zhou plummeted.

In the end, it was just like how Emperor Zhou complained every time about him… but he was truly good to Su Wen.

When Old Su returned, Su Wen realized that he had no right to hate Emperor Zhou.

He killed the Crown Prince, slept with the Empress… beat up the ministers, and drugged Emperor Zhou…

But his father didn’t even die.

Hmm… this hatred was gone.

Of course, Su Wen also knew that he had completely offended the Zhou Emperor this time.

It was basically impossible to repair their relationship at this point.

However, he could not be bothered to make things difficult for Emperor Zhou.

There was no need for that.

The two sides were still not directly enemies.

Su Wen was more interested in harvesting his Emotional Value at the moment.

As a matter of fact, the citizens of the Chu Country were already on the right track.

“Big news big news! Iron Mask Scholar’s Magnum Opus, the Battle Through The Heavens, has been updated with a new chapter…”

In the newspaper stand, the seller shouted.

This book, Battle Through the Heavens, was imitated by Su Wen based on the popular online novels of his previous life.

His purpose was to let the audience enjoy reading the stories!

The more satisfying it was, the more painful it would be when the knife was stabbed.

Now, the price of this newspaper in the capital has even increased!

They were originally newspapers that cost a few copper coins each, but in order to see it first, someone even offered a tael of silver!

At this moment, there was a long line outside the newsstand.

At this moment, the protagonist in Su Wen’s novel had already arrived at the climax.

Su Wen was very happy as he looked at the lively newsstands…

Soon, soon, you will feel pain again.

He had already expected this. After this time, these guys would probably not read the stories in the newspapers anymore.

Wu Yuehan was gazing at Su Wen from behind while he looked out the window.

Her face was filled with confusion.

She was already in despair. Why?

Why couldn’t she get pregnant?

Xiang Feiyan was clearly pregnant!

Everyone in Great Chu knew that Xiang Feiyan was pregnant. To Wu Yuehan, it didn’t make sense. Why wasn’t she pregnant? Why couldn’t she be pregnant?

Recently, Xiang Feiyan had started to stuff her stomach with food before going to court.

She didn’t want the officials to know about the abnormality of her child.

“Su Wen, why do you think I can’t get pregnant with your child?” Wu Yuehan asked again.

Su Wen had a pure expression as he smiled. “It’s probably because the fated time has yet to arrive, right? After all, this kind of thing can’t be forced. Why don’t you return to the sect for a period of time first? Perhaps resting will have a good effect.”

“After all, if the pressure in your heart is too great, it’s not conducive for us.”

Su Wen analyzed it seriously.

“Is that so?”

“Of course! Alright, I’ve given you what I should. I’ll leave first.”

Su Wen stood up and left.

Wu Yuehan stood above the inn and looked at Su Wen’s back. Her gaze gradually turned firm!

“Impossible! There’s no reason why I can’t do what Xiang Feiyan can do! If one time doesn’t work, then ten times! If ten times doesn’t work, then a hundred times! If a hundred times doesn’t work, then this old lady will exhaust him!”

Hu Prefecture, Mu Residence.

Zhang Shunzhi met the head of the Mu Family.

The two of them sat down. The Mu Family’s Patriarch, Mu Binsen, had a cold expression as he said in a deep voice, “May I know why Young Master Zhang is here?”

Zhang Shunzhi said coldly, “Mu Family, do you really want to treat it as nothing happened?”

Mu Binsen pretended not to know. “What happened?”

Zhang Yong was dead and Zhang Shunzhi was ordered to return to his hometown to mourn. In Mu Binsen’s opinion, the Zhang Family had already fallen and no longer had any value.

“Don’t tell me you really think that my father was killed by the Bright God Sect?”

Zhang Shunzhi’s eyes turned red as he said, “My father just contradicted His Majesty that day and was killed at night. How can there be such a coincidence in this world!”

“So what? It has nothing to do with my Mu Family!” Mu Binsen didn’t want to get involved.

Zhang Shunzhi sneered and said, “Don’t forget that your Mu Family member also died in my father’s study! Do you think Her Majesty won’t be able to find out that person’s background? Will she let your Mu Family off?”

Upon hearing these words, Mu Binsen frowned.

Zhang Shunzhi continued, “Patriarch Mu, think about it carefully. My father was only trying to fight for the position of governor for your family’s Mu Zhong. In the end, he was directly assassinated after saying a few unpleasant words in the court. Then can your Mu family be removed? Are you sure that the Heaven Rank expert didn’t hear what my father and your Mu family said? Will Her Majesty bear a grudge? I’m not afraid to say something disrespectful. That woman is very petty!”

“So what? My Mu family is far from the capital. Even if Her Majesty wants to kill my Mu family, it won’t be so easy!”

Zhang Shunzhi said in a low voice, “You are like fish on the chopping block. Even if she doesn’t kill you today, she will kill you one day! I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. There’s a chance right now, and it’s a great opportunity for your Mu Family to rise. Once it succeeds, it won’t be a problem for you to be bestowed the title of King!”

The two of them started discussing in detail.

In the palace, Xiang Feiyan and Su Wen sat opposite each other. Xiang Feiyan had a solemn expression as she said, “Something has happened!”

“Huh?” Su Wen was a little confused.

“What is it?”

“The Mu Clan of the Hu Prefecture has rebelled. They used a Heaven Rank expert to kill the Hu Prefecture Governor and declared their own territory.”

“This…”

To be honest, this was beyond Su Wen’s expectations.

Initially, he did not intend to pursue the Mu Clan’s responsibility. In his opinion, the transaction did not succeed.

“You want me to make a move?” Su Wen frowned.

Xiang Feiyan shook her head. “Of course not. That Mu family expert is extremely strong. I’ve already asked a few Heaven Rank experts in the palace, and they all said that they’re all busy.”

Xiang Feiyan said in a low voice, “That’s why I’ve already planned to let Fourth Great-Grandfather take action. The Mu Family is a great family from the Hu Prefecture, and there are many experts in the family. If our cultivation is insufficient, it will definitely be difficult to suppress them. Fourth Great-Grandfather will take action and suppress them with lightning speed.”

Su Wen thought about it and realized that there was nothing wrong with it!

Hence, he agreed.

After receiving the emperor’s order, Xiang Ding did not say anything and left on his own.

The Hu Prefecture was quite far from the capital, and even Heaven Rank experts needed time to get there.

Three days after Xiang Ding left.

A man walked out from the depths of the palace.

He was dressed in a robe made purely of python skin and looked only a few years younger than Xiang Feiyan.

His face looked as if it had been chiseled out.

The Heaven Rank experts looked at him and said coldly, “We won’t help you! Otherwise, Xiang Ding might attack us.”

“You don’t have to…”

“They have a Heaven Rank expert on their side. You might not win!”

“I will definitely win!”

The man was very confident.

He walked towards Xiang Feiyan’s bedroom step by step.

Soon, he arrived outside the door.

In the room, Su Wen stopped what he was doing and looked outside with a sharp gaze.

“What’s wrong?” Xiang Feiyan was still unaware.

“There’s a Heaven Rank expert!”

Su Wen said in a solemn tone!

He could clearly sense the killing intent.

The next second…

Bang!

Su Wen stood in front of Xiang Feiyan and threw a punch.

A huge force burst forth and the chamber was instantly blown away!

Su Wen casually waved his hand and a set of zither girls’ clothes was already worn on Xiang Feiyan.

The palace maids and female guards were all killed by the two of them.

Only Xiang Feiyan was uninjured since she was positioned behind Su Wen!

“Guards! Protect the emperor!” Xiang Feiyan screamed.

However, not a single Heaven Rank expert had come.

At this moment, the man said softly, “Big Sister, stop shouting. I’ve already told them that they won’t attack. After all, I’m much closer to them than you are to them.”

Second Prince! This person was actually the Second Prince that Xiang Ding had claimed to be in seclusion!

He had already broken through to the Heaven Rank.

Xiang Feiyan looked at him and said coldly, “Xiang Feng, what are you doing! I’m the Great Chu Emperor now!”

“Hehe, the Great Chu Emperor under someone else?” Xiang Feng mocked, “Do you think you can rest easy after becoming an emperor? Let me tell you, only by becoming stronger can you be truly powerful. Only I am the true emperor of Great Chu.”

“Look at those Heaven Rank experts. They want me to ascend to the throne as well! Otherwise, why wouldn’t they help you?”

Su Wen looked at the man in front of him.

This guy was very pragmatic.

Su Wen had already reacted. “In other words, you were the one who planned the Mu family’s rebellion?”

Xiang Feng nodded and said, “Of course. Otherwise, how would the Mu family dare to rebel? As long as Fourth Great-Grandfather is transferred out of the capital, I’ll kill the two of you. When he returns, the throne of Great Chu will be mine! What can he do?”

Su Wen sighed inwardly… This Xiang Ding… did it really not know that this fellow had broken through to the Heaven Rank, or did he deliberately transfer himself away?

Perhaps Xiang Ding did not approve of Xiang Feiyan. Who knew?

Just as Su Wen was thinking about it, he suddenly realized that he was still naked. His crotch felt cold…
