"But Master, that woman is injured. If you chase after her, she should …"

"You can't get much out of her even if you get her." Xiao Qing closed her eyes, her heart felt as if something was pressing down on her, as though something was stuck in her throat: "Moreover … I think I've already guessed who it is. "

"Master already knows?" Mo Lin came over in his wheelchair. He stopped crying as he laid on his lap, but there were still tears at the corner of her eyes. She waved her little hand and was about to say something.

"Right." Xiao Qing Qing walked over and hugged the little guy. "Although I'm not very sure, it's just that … "I hope that I've guessed wrongly this time. If it really is that man, then things will be difficult."

Wang Mang frowned and exchanged glances with Mo Lin. A grave expression flashed across his face.

They had followed their master for over a year, but they had never seen him show such an expression.

"Ah ~" Blinking her eyes, she cutely placed her hand on Xiao Qing Ran's chest.

Xiao Qingran held the child in her arms tighter. It was unknown if she was saying this to herself or to her, "It's alright, little guy. No matter who's mother is, they will always protect you."

Protect you and protect Qianhan, no one can touch her family.

Everyone knew that she wouldn't be able to come over for the next few days. The truth was that the following journey was indeed a bit too peaceful, but that wasn't because of the woman's injury.

Currently, in a tent at the center of the Barracks, a man dressed in an ink-colored robe stood with his hands behind his back. He had his head lowered and was playing with a whip in his other hand.

Although the wound on her palm had already healed, there was still a trace of blood left. At this moment, the woman had already removed her human skin mask. Her exquisite face that was similar to Xiao Qing Qing's had a hint of sickness, most likely due to being heavily injured.

"Qingdai, you're getting bolder and bolder these days. You're not even going to listen to what I say, are you?" The man's tone was cold, without a single trace of warmth: "What? Do you think that you already have a pair of hard wings and that you don't need to take my words to heart? "

"Mistress, I don't think so. I will never forget your kindness for the rest of my life."

"You don't dare to forget?" The man sneered. With a mocking tone, he said, "Three years ago, I rescued you from a pile of corpses to teach you martial arts. I wanted you to help me with something, not to disrupt my plans!"

"Your subordinate doesn't have one, your subordinate is just …"

The man's whip suddenly lashed out towards Qing Dai, hitting her hard on the back. Qing Dai had already suffered from internal injuries, and now, she was bleeding from the corner of her mouth. Her face turned ugly, but she didn't dare to complain and continued in a humble manner, "It's your servant's fault. Please don't be angry, master."

"Of course it's your fault." The man turned around, but his handsome face was filled with a dark chill. His dark eyes were filled with a murderous intent that came from the depths of hell: "I told you to bring her back, but I didn't tell you to touch her. How many lives do you think you'll get if she hurts you? "

He had been searching for her for so many years. If he was hurt by these idiots, he definitely wouldn't let them off lightly.

Qing Dai clenched her fist tightly, hatred shining in her eyes, but her tone remained the same, "Mistress is fine, but our people are all in the hands of her subordinates, and even I …" "Although that woman has lost her inner force, her kung fu skills are not weak."

Why was she like this? She had been following her master for three years now, and she couldn't help but wonder what could possibly have made her master into such a state.

"Ho … Naturally, she's not weak. On the other hand, I'm the one who's in a mess because I care about her. Indeed, you bunch of useless people can't hurt her." The man curled his lips, a hint of pride appearing in the depths of his dark eyes.

As expected, she was outstanding even in this kind of place. She was truly worthy of being called …

Qing Dai's body stiffened. She wanted to explain herself, but she was afraid that she would anger this man, so she didn't dare to say more. Instead, she lowered her body and asked, "Do you need me to send more people?"

"No matter how many people you send over, it's useless. It's a waste of energy, the two armies are about to start a war, I don't have that much time to waste on you."

"Yes …" Although she was unwilling, she still gritted her teeth and agreed.

Even if Master wanted to protect her, but … Although he didn't know the reason yet, it didn't matter. Sooner or later, he would step on that woman's head.

He had accompanied his master for so many years, but that woman had never done anything to him. Not to mention that woman had not only gotten married, but had also given birth to a child.

The whip struck her back again, this time with full force.

Qing Dai couldn't help but tremble, and let out a grunt as she spat out a mouthful of blood, "My Lord …" Master? "

The man's eyes flashed with disgust as he said coldly, "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You'd better remember your identity and not do anything that you shouldn't. She's not someone you can mess with. You should know that if it wasn't for your face, I wouldn't have saved you."

When Qing Dai heard this, her expression became even more unsightly.

She knew that it was because she knew that she hated that woman more and more. Although she didn't want to admit it, that woman was right. In her master's eyes, she was indeed a substitute for her!

Qing Dai clenched her fist tightly, and then forced herself to release her grip. She knelt down and said, "Yes, your subordinate's life has been ruined."

The man saw that she was too lazy to say more, so he just said, "Go out and bring back those people you sent out. There are still three days before the war begins, I don't want to waste any energy."

"Yes."

"And …" The man paused for a moment, his eyes swept across her body, then he turned his back again: "This time, you really dissatisfied me, not only did you fail to complete the task I gave you, you even dared to reveal your identity. You should thank yourself for having such a face, otherwise, I would have killed you long ago because of this mistake."

He reminded himself time and time again that he was a substitute, which made Qing Dai's resentment towards Xiao Qing Ran even more intense.

"You know what to do, don't you?"

"Yes, your subordinate will go and receive his punishment now." She clutched her chest and stumbled to her feet, then retreated.

Only then did the man with the back relax a little, and a playful smile rose in his deep eyes.

Little girl, we will meet soon. I wonder what kind of expression you will have when you see me again? This really makes me look forward to it.

At the same time, on the other side of the camp, Su Qian Han was discussing three days' worth of battle with his assistant general. At the same time, on the other side, Su Qian Han was discussing three days' battle with his assistant general in the camp, on the other side of the camp, Su Qian Han was discussing three days' battle with his assistant.

In any case, Wolf Claw didn't need his Coach Uncle Li and the others to stay idle these days. In addition, they were considered veterans on the battlefield, and they had also stayed with Su Qianhan in the city; after all, they were still more knowledgeable than the others.

Prince, we've fought eight or nine battles, big or small, this year. Aside from most of them, the rest of us have only won or lost by half. If this goes on, who knows how long we'll have to drag this fight on.

Su Qianhan sat across from them on the table with a pen in her hand. She was drawing on the battle diagram in her hand. With a serious expression, she asked, "Have you guys found out about the matter this king asked you to investigate?"

"This …" Uncle Li paused, then sighed: "Your Highness, it's not that your subordinates are powerless, it's just that …" "I can't find that man's identity. All the information I found in the past six months said that he's just an ordinary young master from a big family. But who would cause such a commotion on the battlefield?"

"Prince, why don't we let this matter rest for now. No matter what the identity of this man is, the most important thing for us to do is to win the next battle. Who cares who he is?" ZhengKui pointed at a corner of the map and said, "We are going to start the war in three days. Our army has been declining for the past six months. We can't drag this on any longer."

Su Qianhan frowned.

Is it all right? Aside from the war, he had a strange feeling about the person behind him ever since he got here. He had a faint feeling that that person's background was very important to them.

This person's fighting style was very unique. He was completely different from the enemies he had faced before, and he definitely wasn't the usual leader of the Bian Rong army. What was more important … He didn't know why he could occasionally see the shadow of a lady in that person's actions.

He had already been away from the capital for such a long time. It was a pity that she had written to him about the little guy's first year of drawing lots, and had not been able to watch him spend his most important year. He had been busy these past few months, and had missed them more and more, so he did not dare write to them, afraid that he would have to return to the capital after writing a letter.

The two felt that the general was looking at each other and sighing inwardly.

During this period of time, the Prince had been distracted more and more. Needless to say, they knew what he had done all this for them. It was just that the war was approaching, and they did not have the time to think about other things.
