Yun Zihuang coldly said: "Now that we have the Wind Great Ginseng, is it possible for you to obey my military order?"

Feng Ning stole a glance at the tent. How could his lord not have heard such a big commotion? However, his lord did not stop it. It could be seen that the princess had followed his lord's orders. It was just that yesterday, the lord had ordered for the princess to be forbidden from leaving the military camp. Why had the military emblem and the seal been given to the princess?

"The military order is like a mountain, this lowly general would not dare to disobey it even if I were to die a thousand times."

"Send your troops out to fight."

"As you command!"

His voice was loud, and he was listening to the sounds in the tent, but there was no sound at all. He could only stand up and bow before retreating to pass on the princess' order. Actually, he was very willing to follow the princess' orders and fight alongside her. This little princess had a myriad of tricks up her sleeve. The journey was too smooth, and he did not have the chance to enjoy himself. Here, he would be guarding the young prefecture lord in the military camp.

Now that he had the opportunity to fight, he was naturally very excited. He turned back to look at his lord's tent and saw that the princess had entered. Thinking about how the princess had used her troops like a god, this was because her lord was too tired and her injuries were severe. For the time being, she was willing to let the princess lead the troops.

No one knew that at this moment, their godlike lord had been put down by their future matriarch and was currently in a deep sleep. Not to mention Feng Ding saying a few words out loud, even if it was thunder, it couldn't wake their lord up.

This time, Yun Zihuang also put forth the capital, and the quantity of the medicine increased by three times!

"The lord is recovering from his injuries. No one is allowed to approach the tent to disturb him. Those who approach the tent are to be killed without pardon!"

The Iron Guards hastily bowed and accepted the order. They waited not far from the tent, not daring to approach it. They were all Feng Qingxiao's trusted aides and the Iron Guard that had fought with the lord last night. They knew that the lord's injuries were not light. Similarly, they were the same as Feng Dingdang. When they saw the princess entering and exiting their lord's tent, they assumed that it was an order from their lord. No one doubted her at all.

The plan was to impersonate the Princess of the barbarian race and meet with the Duke of Sky.

The Northern Region and the Rising Sun Empire had already formed a tight encirclement around the Blackbear Ditch, advancing step by step. If not for the vast and complex terrain of the Blackbear Ditch, Feng Qingxiao would have split his troops into several squads and act as the light cavalry of the Northern Region. However, if they waited until the Northern Region and the Rising Sun Empire succeeded, trapping the Iron Guards in a limited area, then it would be difficult for them to break out of the siege.

The Northern Region and the Rising Sun Empire, although they had many conflicts due to the recent events, all of their eyes were fixated on the Black Bear Valley.

The Battle God was the one they wanted. As long as they could kill or capture Feng Qingxiao, the war in the northern border would be considered over. They would obtain the final victory.

At that time, they could rely on the northern border as a springboard and base to invade Tianyuan territory.

The Heavenly Treasures had already made the barbarians of the northern region and the Rising Sun Empire salivate. They had gained great benefits. They temporarily put aside all their conflicts and pressed on towards the Black Bear Valley.

The situation was critical!

The one thousand Iron Guards wore the uniform of the Light Cavalry of the Northern Region. If one didn't pay careful attention, they looked like a barbarian of the Northern Region.

Yun Zi Huang looked back, and was willing to risk her life to lead the troops in his stead. In the face of danger, she would gain an opportunity. He could only hope that this time, he could reap some benefits and make the situation better. As long as he could persist, Ouyang Baofeng's side would have a good ending, and the danger here would be greatly reduced.

Along the way, she discovered the marks left by her personal guards. These unique marks had been taught to his personal guards.

Yun Hai and Yun Zhao had left with five hundred of their personal guards last night. She didn't know where Feng Qingxiao had sent them or what he was doing.

His personal guards had left marks along the way according to her previous instructions. As long as they followed these marks forward, they would be able to join forces with Yunhai. In the end, the Iron Guards belonged to the War God King. She had only followed his orders and used the Gale Token, the Soldier Talisman, and Feng Qingxiao's golden seal. Then, he had ordered for the Iron Guards to appear. But as time passed, he wondered what sort of changes would occur. The personal guards were her true subordinates. Not to mention, she'd discovered that his personal guard's route was just right for her.

In the distance, smoke hung in the air, and she sped up.

"Reporting, princess, the scouts have discovered the light cavalry of the northern region."

Yun Zihuang shot a signal flare into the air. If it was a personal guard, she would respond with a signal flare. "Sure enough, the scout soon spotted the enemy and raised a signal flare.

"Feng Dingdang, it's a personal guard. Send someone to contact them and order them to advance towards here."

Windy took the map. "As you wish."

After a while, two groups of people came together. Yun Hai rode his horse over and looked around before whispering, "Princess, this subordinate is acting on the Lord's orders and should report back to the Lord's orders."

"What are the losses of our personal guards?"

"It's a small loss, but I was lucky enough to survive."

"Rest where you are."

A personal guard dismounted from her horse and began to recuperate while treating her wounds. The stench of blood filled the air, and even the fragrance of plants and vegetation was difficult to conceal. After this baptism of blood, the personal guards' temperament had greatly changed. They already had the demeanor of Iron-Blood Warriors. Their eyes turned murderous and ruthless, and within their silence, an endless baleful aura could be seen.

"Just report to me about what happened last night."

The old fox, Yun Hai's eyes flashed with a dark glint. He didn't ask any further and simply recounted what had happened last night. He brought her personal guards to ambush and rob the grain. His main mission was to pretend to be someone from the Northern Region and deepen the conflict between the Northern Region and the Rising Sun Empire. Fortunately, he had many poisons with him, and her five hundred personal guards were very skilled. However, there were two thousand men here, and they only had five hundred men. Yunhai brought a group of experts with him to sneak in and use the poison's effect to ambush the wild humans who were caught off guard.

Even so, more than half of the five hundred personal guards had been wounded by the massacre of the two thousand warriors of the barbarian race!

"More than a hundred personal guards have died. Burn them on the spot …"

Yunhai's voice was incredibly heavy, he could no longer continue. Tian Yuan's custom was to be buried here, and the funeral was grand. However, it was impossible for those guards to take their corpses away, and they could not leave any clues related to Tian Yuan. They could only throw them into the fire and turn to ash!

In this way, no one would be able to find the origin of these ashes!

All the clues he had intentionally left behind were aimed at the barbarians of the northern region!

They didn't even have the time to wait for their comrades' ashes to be collected, and then burn the supplies before leaving in a hurry.

Yun Zihuang looked at his personal guards. The lightly wounded personal guards were currently treating their heavily injured comrades. Their technique was skilled and swift, worthy of her personal training. More than a hundred people, the personal guards she had brought with her from the capital, were just like this, forever buried in the wilderness outside the northern borders.

She knelt towards the direction where the smoke was rising and raised her hand, "The Heroic Spirit of the Residence of Duke Ding is with me. I vow to bring your Heroic Spirit back to the capital!"
