The warship quickly approached the pier of Japan. Before the ship could stop, Xiao Zeyu jumped off the ship and ran towards Su Qing. Zhang Jinglin also jumped off the ship with his soldiers. When he saw that the Empress was in trouble, his heart was burning with anxiety. If something happened to the Empress, he would die a thousand deaths.

Su Qing used her God of War ability and used all her strength. The Japanese soldiers who were attacking from the front row fell back, and the Japanese soldiers behind stepped on their corpses and continued to attack.

Xiao Qi flew back and forth in the air, trying to catch the eyes of these pirates. It was a spirit beast that didn’t know fatigue, so it always protected Su Qing.

Fortunately, the little guy was there, so Su Qing had a chance to catch her breath. Sweat dripped down her hair, and she panted heavily. Looking at the Japanese pirates that surged up like a tide, she gritted her teeth. She could still hold on.

“Everyone, hold on. The reinforcements will be here soon.”

Su Qing shouted at Zhong Yong and the others. Seeing the six guards fall one by one, Su Qing’s eyes turned red. If this continued, there would only be her and Zhong Yong left.

Were they going to be wiped out today?

“Qing’er.”

Xiao Zeyu shouted as he charged into the encirclement of the Japanese pirates. The Luan blade in his hand cut through the blood as he killed his way through. Su Qing heard Xiao Zeyu’s voice and immediately became alert. She shouted at Zhong Yong and the remaining two guards,

“The reinforcements are here.”

When they heard that reinforcements were coming, the two guards, exhausted, regained their spirits and waved their swords.

“Kill! Kill all the Japanese pirates!” Zhang Jinglin and the soldiers shouted in unison.

The soldiers’ morale was high, like a fierce tiger rushing down the mountain. The pirates were suddenly thrown into disarray. They had to deal with Su Qing and the others while blocking the Xiao Family Army. Soon, the troops were in chaos. They were surrounded by the well-trained Xiao Family Army and defeated one by one.

Xiao Zeyu was like a dragon attacking. He charged into the encirclement. Su Qing looked at him and smiled.

“You’re here.”

“I’ll settle the score with you when we get back.”

“Rest well. Don’t move around.”

Su Qing had no choice but to sit down again. She was hungry from the war. She took out steamed buns from the system and ate them. After eating three big steamed buns in one go, she felt full. Once she was full, she had strength again. She stood up and asked for a bow and arrow. She and Xiao Zeyu shot the Japanese pirates together.

The two sides fought for a few rounds, from sunrise to the afternoon. Corpses were everywhere.

The sea level gradually rose, and the Japanese soldiers suddenly retreated.

“Not good, it looks like a tsunami.”

Su Qing felt something was wrong when she saw the seawater rise, so she shouted for the soldiers to run.

The scene became like this. The Japanese soldiers were running for their lives in front, and the Xiao Family’s Army was following closely behind. It looked like the Xiao Family’s Army was killing them.

“Everyone, run to the highest point. Those who can climb trees climb to the top.”

Su Qing ordered loudly. Some southern soldiers who were good at climbing trees found a nearby tree to climb up.

Xiao Zeyu pulled Su Qing’s arm and climbed up a tree over ten meters tall. As soon as they reached the top of the tree, they saw the seawater sweeping over like an angry lion, roaring like a dragon and tiger. The seawater turned dark green, as terrifying as the abyss of hell.

Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu watched as the sea swallowed the slower pirates. Fortunately, Su Qing shouted in time, and most of the Xiao family’s soldiers climbed up the trees. The few who didn’t climb up clung to the tree branches and weren’t swept away by the tsunami.

The Xiao Family’s Army on the top of the tree hurriedly threw down the rope to save their comrades. The Xiao Family’s Army did not suffer many casualties.

Su Qing hugged the tree trunk tightly while Xiao Zeyu hugged both of them in his arms. Their gazes met, and Xiao Zeyu gently kissed Su Qing on the forehead. His low, magnetic voice had the power to make people feel at ease,

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you.”

“I’m not afraid. It’s the wrath of nature. The Japanese pirates are too evil. The heavens can’t stand it and want to take them in.”

Su Qing smiled. Her clothes were already soaked with seawater. She and Xiao Zeyu had gone through life and death together. They had experienced an earthquake and then a tsunami. They would cherish their days together even more if they could escape this disaster.

“Yes, the heavens are taking them in.”

Xiao Zeyu looked at Su Qing in his arms. There was no fear in her eyes. She was so calm that even he felt inadequate.

If they could escape this time, he would have to spend more time with Qing’er..
