Chapter 119.1

Chapter 119.1

At this time, the weather was gradually warming up, and summer had arrived.

After the intense preparations at the beginning of the year, all the work in Great Xia was now being carried out smoothly, and this year would be another bumper year.

Now, with no external threats or internal troubles, there were far fewer matters in the court.

With the establishment of the cabinet, most of the work was delegated to them, so Lin Beifan was not at all busy now, and he had plenty of leisurely vacation days.

Take now, for instance, he was lying on a rocking chair, squinting in the sun while humming a tune. Its the very picture of peaceful times.

Behind him, two young eunuchs were fanning him.

In front of him, two young palace maids were massaging his legs.

On the table beside him, there were fruits and water chilled with ice blocks, emitting waves of cool air.

Life seemed extremely comfortable and pleasant, as well as decadent.

At that moment, Chai Yuxin jogged over and, seeing Lin Beifans look of enjoyment, felt somewhat irritated. She stealthily waved her hands to shoo away the two young palace maids who were giving the massage, then sat down herself and extended her devils claw, pressing down hard.

Lin Beifan cried out, Ouch! Yuxin, what are you doing?

While brandishing her claws, Chai Yuxin retorted, What am I doing? Seeing you enjoying yourself like that annoys me!

Lin Beifan continued to yell, Im enjoying myself, how does that bother you?

Thats right! Everyone is working hard for Great Xia, whether its me, my Father, or Uncle Xiao, were all toiling away without rest, and only you, you little scoundrel, are enjoying yourself. How could I let you off?

Yuxin, actually, you could join in too!

Lin Beifan shifted over to make some space, patted the empty spot beside him, and with a wink and a nudge, said, Come, lie down in my arms! Lets bask in the sun together, sleep together, and hehehe

Chai Yuxin flared up again, lunging forward.

Ill make you sunbathe! Ill make you sleep! Ill make you hehehe!

Lin Beifan screamed once more: Youre actually biting now?

Moments later, the two finally calmed down.

Rubbing his sore, red thigh, Lin Beifan coughed and asked, Yuxin, what brings you here?

Chai Yuxin slapped her forehead: I almost forgot, I actually have a surprise for you!Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

What surprise? Lin Beifan inquired.

Just follow me and youll find out!

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, they arrive at the military camp outside the city.

What kind of surprise is it that we have to come all this way? Lin Beifan asked, puzzled.

Dont worry, youll find out soon enough! Wait, first close your eyes! Only open them when I tell you to, Chai Yuxin said mysteriously.

Close my eyes?

Lin Beifan squinted: Yuxin, are you hiding something from me? You drag me to your military camp and then ask me to close both eyes Do you have some kind of special fetish, planning to take me by surprise and pin me against the wall? Just say it, Im not unwilling to cooperate!

Chai Yuxin was furious: You little rascal, what on earth is always on your mind? Cant you see Im being serious?

Lin Beifan saw right through her and said, Alright, youre serious, youre noble, youre amazing, happy now?

As he spoke, Lin Beifan closed his eyes: Yuxin, I have closed my eyes now, come on! Dont worry, no matter what you plan to do to me, whether you take a gentle approach or a forceful one, I will not resist!

Chai Yuxin was both amused and exasperated as she said, We agreed that you cant open your eyes until I say you can!

Lin Beifan replied, Rest assured, Im more familiar with this game than you are!

Later, after establishing the female soldiers, I found that these women had similar backgrounds, lived together, and practiced the same martial arts techniques. Their understanding of each other improved more and more, and they have already met the conditions necessary for practicing battle formations!

So, I decided to have them try cultivating, and to my surprise, it actually worked!

Lin Beifan said excitedly, Quickly demonstrate it, let me witness this marvel!

Very well! All troops, heed my command, to the battlefield!

Yes, General!

They immediately began their drill.

Lin Beifan noticed that as the drill progressed, their momentum steadily climbed, then coalesced together, and once again surged abruptly, making them appear as though they had become one entity.

Then, they delivered a powerful strike.

Ha!

A formidable force surged towards the heavens!

Spanning over a hundred zhang, it struck the land a hundred zhang away, instantly causing mountains to crumble and dust to rise into the air!

This force was powerful enough to threaten those with Innate abilities!

Your Majesty, how do you find the might of this battle formation? Are you satisfied? Chai Yuxin asked with pride.

Lin Beifan, excited, embraced Chai Yuxin, holding her face and kissing her wildly: Im more than satisfied, I love you to death! This is indeed a tremendous surprise, haha!

Chai Yuxin felt a deep embarrassment: Your Majesty, everyone is watching!

So what if they are? Its not like they dont know!

The female soldiers snickered secretly.

Chai Yuxin, both embarrassed and angry, could only pinch Lin Beifans soft flesh fiercely.

Lin Beifan: Ow, ow, ow

A moment later.

Lin Beifan looked at the spirited female soldiers before him with a different gaze.

These were female soldiers trained for battle formations, and although they were few in number, they could rival those with Innate abilities when they exerted their full strength, their potential boundless.

Seizing the opportunity, Chai Yuxin said, Your Majesty, the female soldiers currently have modest strength, but if they become stronger, the power of the battle formations will be greatly enhanced! Therefore, I request additional resources and military funds, please grant this, Your Majesty!

With a grand gesture, Lin Beifan declared, Granted! Whatever you want, I will provide!

Thank you, Your Majesty! Chai Yuxins face lit up with a smile.

Yuxin, if theres anything else, speak now, I fully support you! As long as we can train this army, no matter the cost, I am willing to pay it! Lin Beifan encouraged.

Your Majesty, what they need most now is the training that comes from life-and-death experiences, because they have not yet been on the battlefield. Without the baptism of battle, their strength cannot be fully realized! Chai Yuxin explained.

You have a point!

Lin Beifan lowered his head to ponder and furrowed his brows, It wont be easy to send them into battle! You must realize, that weve already made a round through the neighboring kingdom, and even Great Yue has been cowed by us! Without an opponent, its hard to start a fight!

Chai Yuxin nodded in agreement, albeit with difficulty, Thats true as well.

Lets wait and see, there might be a turning point!
