Chapter 45: Promotion
In the main tent of the army camp, Qi Bei was busy writing with a pen.
After a short while, he put down his pen, folded and sealed the letter, handed it to Huaian, and said, Big brother, Im in a hurry this time, and theres something I havent had time to take care of. After I leave, please secretly send this letter to the Marquis of Lanling, and dont let anyone else know.
Marquis of Lanling?
Huaian was a little puzzled, but he didnt ask any more questions since he trusted his own brother. Therefore, he readily agreed.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Half an hour later, Lie Feng and Iron Head had already prepared everything, and the siblings Jin Gang and Huan Ying had also arrived at Qi Beis side.
Father, big brother, take care. Qi Bei hugged Raymond and Huaian, turned around and got on a carriage, while the 250 Black Armored soldiers turned into a small caravan escort, following Qi Bei on this journey.
Qi Bei lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked back. The huge imperial city was becoming smaller and smaller in his eyes, and his heart was filled with a burning passion.
Someday, I, Qi Bei, will return in a way that will attract the attention of the world. Qi Bei thought to himself.
Perhaps someday, it would be recorded in the historical records: on a dark night, a young man walked out of the Imperial City and headed towards the vast world, swimming in the sea of fire and soaring in the sky like a dragon
At dawn, the Golden Leaf Road, the imperial road of the city was very quiet.
The steward of the Marquis Mansion knocked on Kasefs room holding a letter in his hand.
Whats the matter? Kasef opened the door. He had just awakened from his meditation and was not particularly surprised.
Its a letter for the Marquis. A person wearing a cloak delivered it and said its related to the Marquiss life and death. The steward handed the letter over with trembling hands.
Kasef concentrated the battle qi in his hand, took the letter, and waved his hand to let the steward leave.
After reading the letter, Kasefs pupils suddenly shrank, and his hands trembled. He almost dropped the letter.
The chess game between the royal family and the Nord family was obviously one step behind, which made the contradiction between the two sides more acute. What was originally hidden under the storm had emerged at this moment.
In the Dreaming Moon Palace, Ming Yue and the Feng family sisters sat together.
Brother Qi Bei left? Why did he leave so soon? Feng Ruoyu opened her mouth wide in surprise and asked.
I just found out as well, Ming Yue appeared very calm. There was no emotional fluctuation in her expression. She seemed to be talking about something irrelevant to her.
Feng Ruoyun didnt say anything, being as intelligent as she was, she could already guess the reason behind the event.
Sister Ming Yue, youre his wife, didnt he say goodbye to you? Feng Ruoyu complained, it was obvious that she was not angry at Ming Yue but rather at Qi Bei. He left without even saying goodbye to her, which was really frustrating.
Goodbye? Did they need to say goodbye between them? Since they both understood what was happening, there was no need for goodbyes.
However, even though she thought that way, Ming Yue still felt a slight melancholy in her heart.
Their worlds intersected for only a moment, then they went in opposite directions again. The curiosity that had been stirred within her would also fade with time.
As Feng Ruoyu chattered on, scolding Qi Bei, Ming Yue and Feng Ruoyun were lost in their own thoughts.
Just then, a palace maid ran over, her face full of panic. She stuttered, PrincessPrincess, Feng Tian has arrived.
Feng Ruoyun pulled Feng Ruoyu, saying, Ming Yue, we need to leave for home now. If you have time, you can come find me at the Golden Fortress.
Sure, take care on your way back. Ming Yue nodded.
As the sisters left the palace, they saw Feng Tian coming in. Both of them were shocked by the sight of the scar on his neck up to the corner of his left eye. Although he wore a clean black robe, the scar was so prominent, it looked like a centipede crawling on his face, making their hearts cold.
Sister, our Feng family has a spirit medicine that can heal this kind of injury. Even if its not comparable to the treatment of Holy Land, the Light Temples priests can perform a healing spell if we ask for their help. As a disciples of the Heavenly Mountain Peak, the priests of the Light Temple would still give him some face, Feng Ruoyu said softly.
Its not that he cant heal, its just that he doesnt want to, Feng Ruoyun shook her head lightly, recalling the sinister look in Feng Tians eyes just now. It seemed that his hatred for Qi Bei was already engraved in his soul.
