"Northeast Mountain Flame, aren't you afraid that it will spread to the west side of the mountain?" Duan Chengxuan rubbed his chin and said, "Moreover, after you leave, this city will only have openings. Your numbers are insufficient to return to attack, and instead, you'll be pincer by Ai Yan's army."

"Groundwater is man-made. As long as it is blasted apart, the land on top of it would collapse and a ravine could be used to fend off the fire." Gu Mingyan raised the corners of her mouth and heard a loud rumble come from outside the courtyard. Noticing Duan Chengxuan's change in expression, he immediately continued, "Moreover, you're overthinking it. No matter what, I'm still a descendant of the Erdan and Navy Tide people. Why don't I help you guys eat this piece of fat?"

The underground river channel collapsed, and a huge gully extended from north to south, cutting off some of the mountain fires.

Before the eight thousand soldiers outside the city could react to what was happening, they saw the city gates open wide before them. The two thousand soldiers standing orderly before the enemies in the street were all filled with fighting spirit.

Ai Yan's soldiers didn't dare to advance, afraid that they would step into the trap.

At this moment, the fire under the night sky had long since burned to mid-air and thick smoke billowed. All the officers felt that something was amiss with their noses and mouths, but they did not retreat half a step, ready for battle.

At this moment, Gu Liuyan had already reached the courtyard. She raised her head and looked at the burning sky: "As long as we don't have this Fringe City, we can move Cang Lan and Er Dan's military camp up a few dozen miles, while their Jiang Yan border city has become easy to attack and hard to defend. We can only ask the two countries for protection and get some time to breathe."

"Does Lai Xuan know what you are thinking?" Duan Chengxuan followed behind him.

"Lai Xuan only knows that as long as this city is gone, regardless of whether it's Ai Yan or Gu Cheng, no one will be able to surround him. She has also left a path for retreat." Saying this, Gu Liuyan sighed lightly: "I've already reminded them several times that I'm not Jiang Yan's person. Even if I'm nosy, it's only for the sake of profit."

"I thought you were only learning from my martial arts books." Duan Cheng Xuan walked to her side and brought her along. "But now it seems like I've underestimated you."

"Your highness underestimated me from the beginning." Gu Danyan held his hand and followed him towards the west of the city. He turned a deaf ear to the shouts. This war should not have sacrificed them, and Gu Danyan had already shown them every bit of benevolence and benevolence.

As she walked towards the west of the city, Gu Mingyan used a handkerchief soaked in water to cover her nose and mouth. Just as she was about to say something, Duan Chengxuan spoke up, "At first, I thought that you were meddling in this mess of Black Water Town, but now, I don't think so."

"The person who said that I was nosy was you. Why don't you think that now?" Gu Danyan blinked. After being beaten up by Duan Chengxuan and carried by him, her hands only rested on her neck, and her eyes were lit up by the light of the fire.

"Just as the Wind Listening Pavilion quit Navy Tide, you took over Blackwater Town. It seems like you wanted them to stay on standby, but I remember that there are still many shameful transactions going on in Blackwater Town." As Duan Chengxuan watched the soldiers and commoners place fist-sized Thunderfire balls into the room, he said in a deep voice, "With so many Thunderfire balls, I'm afraid they're quite valuable, and it's obvious that Qi Rou knows about the matters of Blackwater Town. Looks like none of this is a coincidence."

"Why are you so smart?" Gu Daiyan proudly raised her chin, took back her hand and patted her chest, full of pride: "Don't look at me like this, I also want to do something for my father. When I was in the palace, I knew that he had coveted Jiang Yan's border cities for a long time."

"From the very beginning, you planned to blow this place up and turn this city into the tomb of Aiyan's army."

"If they don't attack, there won't be any corpses left here in a month. They will only be blown up into ruins." Gu Danyan lightly raised his body and wrapped his arms around Duan Cheng Xuan's neck to prop him up before lying down on his shoulder. He looked at the serious expressions of the people on the streets and lightly said, "It's them who are courting death."

These five words floated into Duan Chengxuan's ears, but they transformed into a drumstick that smashed onto his heart.

As the act of hugging fell a kiss on Gu Danyan's forehead, Duan Chengxuan smiled and said, "In this lifetime, I'm not willing to give you up to anyone!"

Gu Mingyan imitated the appearance of ghosts slapping her forehead, and also smacked Duan Chengxuan on the head along the way. "Stop nagging, let's go!"

The noise by his ears was gradually replaced by silence. The soldiers of the south city gate were still in a standoff, and the citizens of the west city had long since known everything, so they all carefully held onto their children as they curled up with the old man on the training field.

At this moment, aside from the children crying from time to time and the mother's words of consolation, there was only hope in the eyes of countless people.

Gu Liuyan only patted Duan Chengxuan's shoulder to make him put his down, then found a place with no people to slowly sit down. She even waved his hand and said, "I've told you so much, my stomach really does hurt a bit."

"Is it painful?" Duan Cheng Xuan hurriedly half-knelt beside her with a nervous expression on her face.

"To tell the truth, I am truly unable to do these things." Gu Liuyan raised her hand and grabbed Duan Chengxuan's arm. The pain in her lower abdomen made her feel as if she was about to lose this child, but she knew that all of this was caused by the smoke and dust.

She had overestimated her endurance.

All the bones in her body seemed to creak. The effect of the Red Jade Pool was sufficient to ensure that this child would not be troubled by the poison left in her body.

This was probably one of the side effects of using random drugs. However, Gu Tinyan laughed: "If that's the case, there should be something else added in the Scarlet Jade Pond …"

"You're still thinking about the prescription at this time!" Duan Chengxuan's hand pressed against her chin, causing her to slightly raise his head to pant instead of curled up in the corner. His other hand carefully pressed down on her trembling legs. "I'll send someone to find Aizi …"

"How would she know about the antidote? It would be a waste to yell." Gu Mingyan panted heavily, "The best result would be that I would faint temporarily. You just need to feed me some medicine."

Cold sweat had already started seeping out of his forehead, and Gu Tinyan's voice started to tremble.

If not for these fires, she would have been safe, this damned Ai Yan!

Duan Cheng Xuan smashed her fist onto the ground and extended her other hand to grab her cold palm. "I won't let you off after I give birth to this child."

"I look forward to it." This woman still had the face to smile at her!

"Someone, grab a doctor and bring him here. Tell them that as long as we don't protect this child, everyone will be prepared to pay with their lives for her death." Duan Chengxuan's voice sounded sinisterly by his ear.

Gu Liuyan pulled at him in disbelief: "You even put people in the city …"

"Remember what you said today. As long as you die on Jiang Yan's land, I'll personally lead people to raze this place to the ground in the future." Duan Chengxuan kissed the tip of her finger and said in a low voice, "For the sake of the lives of these people, it's best if you don't die."
