Duan Liushao sat on the ground with his hands behind his back. His arms were still trembling slightly.

He panted miserably, his eyes falling on the point of the spear in front of him.

His messy hair stuck to his face, but he couldn't stop the cold sweat from dripping down.

Shen Ling Jue sat on his horse and looked disdainfully at Duan Liushao, lightly saying, "I admit defeat, I'll spare your life."

Duan Liushao stared hatefully at Shen Ling Jue. Even though he was beaten to the point that he had no way to fight back, he was still unwilling to admit defeat.

Shen Ling Jue's eyes turned slightly cold. With a flick of his right hand, the tip of the spear moved an inch forward, pressing tightly against Duan Liushao's neck. At the tip of the spear, a drop of bright red blood was dripping.

Although Duan Liushao was unarmed, he still opened his eyes wide and shouted angrily: "Shen Ling Jue! Even if I am to die, I will not admit defeat to you! "

Shen Ling Jue's lips curled up into a cold smile. With a cold glint in his eyes, his right hand slowly clenched onto the spear shaft.

"I'll help you!"

At this moment, someone not too far away called out loudly, "King Yu!" "Please show mercy!"

Seeing that the situation was critical, Sang Huanyu could not care about anything else and urged her horse forward.

He dismounted from his horse and knelt beside Duan Liushao. Holding onto the long spear, he looked up at Shen Ling Jue and said:

"Your Highness, you've won today's duel. Logically speaking, if you lost on the battlefield, you'd rather die than accept your fate." However, do you know that last time, when Young Marshal Feng was struck with the Soft Muscle Powder, it was my country's crown prince who used the antidote to save her from being killed? At that time, Young Master Feng had personally promised that he would definitely repay this debt and would not be in arrears. "

As soon as he finished speaking, a bone-piercing coldness flashed across Shen Lingjue's beautiful eyes, causing Duan Liushao and Sang Yanyu to shiver uncontrollably.

When Feng Ningyan heard this, she became even more embarrassed.

It was so true that there was no way to deny it. At that time, she had stubbornly refused to thank Duan Liushao and had said that she would definitely return the favor. Who knew that she would return it so quickly?

Seeing that he was about to take down the enemy commander, if he were to let go of the tiger and return to the mountain due to her personal grudge, wouldn't that be a wasted fight on Shen Ling?

When she saw Shen Ling Jue's cold gaze drift over, she felt a prickling sensation on her back, and hastily raised her head guiltily to look at the sky.

Seeing Feng Ning Yan's guilty conscience, Shen Ling Jue snorted coldly and asked Duan Ling Tian in displeasure, "How do I return it?"

Duan Liushao clenched his teeth, but didn't say anything.

Sang Huaiyu knew that the crown prince was arrogant and refused to give in. She hurriedly said,

"The battle today was originally a bet between Feng Shaojun and our crown prince, but now that you have changed hands, of course, the bet cannot be counted as one either." May I ask King Yu, for the sake of saving Young Marshal Feng from this country's crown prince, to let him return and treat his injuries. Three days later, the two armies will fight again. "

Sang Huaiyu could tell that Shen Ling definitely didn't put Duan Liushao in her eyes at all. On the contrary, he cared even more about Feng Ningyan's prestige and reputation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly stood in front of Feng Ningyan and helped her fight Duan Liushao.

"Sang Huanyu! You are monitoring this crown prince!? "

Duan Liushao was shocked and angry at the same time. How could the strategist know what Feng Ningyan had told him that day in the military tent of the Southern Wilderness?

This fellow, who gave him the guts to actually dare watch over the crown prince!

Sang Huaiyu lowered her head and tacitly agreed, "At that time, this subordinate didn't know if Young Master Feng was truly deceived or was deceived. Thus, I sent people to guard outside the tent, afraid that she would plot against His Highness …"

Seeing how loyal Sang Huaiyu was, Duan Liushao no longer blamed her.

At this time, Feng Ning Yan could only push her horse forward and clasp her hands together as she reported, "Your Highness Duke of Yu, this matter is true … "But that was a personal grudge between me and Duan Liushao that had nothing to do with the war …"

She did not want Shen Ling Jue to be dragged along by the nose by Sang Huanyu because of the favor she owed him.

Shen Ling Jue glared at her, holding onto his spear, he coldly said: "Since my army's Young Marshal owes you a favor, then we will talk about it after we pay it off!"

"No way!" Upon hearing that Shen Ling Jue had actually agreed to Sang Huaiyu's request, Feng Ning Yan hurriedly said, "It wasn't easy for us to reach the South Yong Pass, how can we delay them for another three days and let them recharge their strength?"

"It's only been three days." Shen Ling Jue looked at Duan Liushao in disdain. He did not even put this defeated opponent in his eyes at all, "Even if it's 30 days, Sun Xin will still not be able to climb the Five Fingers Mountain."

"You!" Duan LiuShao was so angry that his lips turned blue. This Shen Ling definitely won against him once, but he actually dared to compare him, the dignified crown prince of the Southern Wilderness, to a grandson. Wasn't that Shen Ling Jue himself the Tathagata Buddha?

Feng Ning Yan unwillingly glared at Duan Liushao. "Alright, I'll wait for you for three days."

Her gaze was as cold as ice, and it was mixed with deep hatred. Duan Liushao deeply felt that in her eyes, he wasn't even equal to a stranger.

He could not utter a single word as he allowed Sang Huaiyu and Jiang Chongming to support him as he slowly walked back to the front of his squadron.

Feng Ningyan turned around and saw that Shen Ling Jue had slowly taken off her helmet, while the rest of the cavalrymen behind her had also taken off their helmets, revealing their familiar faces. Excited, she led Li Yao and the other high-ranking officers forward.

"Southern Ning's vice commander-in-chief, Feng Ning Yan, pays his respects to Your Highness, Prince Yu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't hear Shen Lingjue's words of "get rid of the formalities and rise from the ground", but the surrounding atmosphere became heavier and heavier.

Feng Ning Yan's heart was thumping wildly. She raised her head to peek out, only to see Shen Ling Jue staring at her with a furious expression.

Feng Ning Yan shrunk her neck back and coughed dryly. Just as she was about to greet him again, Shen Ling Jue suddenly jumped down from his horse and grabbed her hand, pulling her up from the ground.

Li Yao and the others were also shocked. Could it be that His Highness King Yu was going to hold the Young Marshal responsible for the loss of the Southern Yong Pass?

Feng Ning Yan looked at Shen Ling Jue in shock. After not seeing him for a long time, she felt that his appearance was even better now. However, what was that murderous intent in his eyes that wanted to devour someone …

"Your Highness …"

Shen Ling Jue gritted his teeth and shouted in a cold voice: "Feng Ning Yan, who allowed you to bet with someone and still owe them everywhere! If it weren't for the fact that you were injured by Prince Cheng's soft tendons, the Southern Yong Pass would have already returned to our hands! Is this how you lead your troops? "

"I …"

Feng Ningyan was at a loss and wanted to apologize, but when she thought about it again, Sang Huaiyu did not say that her Muscle Meridian Powder had anything to do with Shen Youhuang. How did Shen Lingjue know?

Did he not leave?

Could it be that the person in her memories who saved her from Shen You Huang was really Shen Ling Jue?

Could it be that the familiar figure that flashed past the tent of the Southern Wilderness was also Shen Ling Jue?

These were not illusions. She was finally able to confirm that he had never left Ningnan and had always been standing by her side!

Feng Ning Yan's eyes couldn't help but turn hot as her eyebrows lightly knitted together. In a voice so weak that only the two of them could hear, she asked, "You haven't returned to the capital, and you haven't left me. Why …" I wrote and left a book... "Even if you don't hate me, you don't need to protect me anymore …"

Shen Ling Jue gritted his teeth and ignored the kneeling Li Yao and the other high-ranking officers behind her as he pulled her into his embrace.

"This King's consort has such devastatingly beautiful looks. Since This King is afraid of wearing a green hat, how could I not keep a closer eye on her?"
