Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gou Hoaxing led Noble Consort Ling in the direction of the southern frontier. Chu Tianbao’s whereabouts were unknown, and the weak Noble Consort Ling was sick again.
If anything happened to Noble Consort Ling, Gou Houxing would not forgive himself even if he died.
lust as he was about to bring the remaining dark guards to find a place to stay and let the dark guards who knew medicine nurse Noble Consort Ling back to health, a group of people caught up to him again.
They were all ruthless suicide soldiers who wanted to achieve their goals even if it meant their lives. Moreover, there were many of them. Gou Houxing1 s heart turned cold when he met their cold gazes.
Noble Consort Ling couldn’t bear to implicate them and said to Gou Houxing, irAs long as I die, they won’t chase after me anymore. Run away.”
If not for the fact that she was looking forward to seeing Chu Tianbao again one day, Noble Consort Ling would have died long ago.
Now that she had seen him and knew that he was already married and about to become a father, she felt at ease and did not dare to ask for too much.
Gou Houxing suddenly widened his eyes and said firmly, “No! Even if my blood runs dry today, I’ll escort you out!”
Noble Consort Ling sighed and clenched the hairpin in her hand, ready to commit suicide at any moment.
Once the dark guards and the suicide soldiers started fighting, Nine Heavens and Commander Zhang arrived.
Nine Heavens aimed at Noble Consort Ling and jumped up to capture her. He said, “Your Highness, sorry to have offended you.”
Noble Consort Ling knew of this person. He had appeared several times when Chu Shixiong was assassinated.
If she was caught by him, she probably would not be able to reunite with Tianbao in the southern frontier.
Gou Houxing raised his sword and rushed forward to fight Nine Heavens to the death. The moment Nine Heavens raised his hand, Noble Consort Ling stopped him. “Don’t kill him! I’ll follow you back obediently!”
Nine Heavens stopped his hands, and his subordinates held Gou Houxing back.
The moment the entire group of suicide soldiers saw Nine Heavens capture Noble Consort Ling, they rushed towards Nine Heavens like a swarm of bees, intending to kill the Noble Consort.
Nine Heavens had brought more people than the entire group of suicide soldiers. Before Commander Zhang could join the battle with his sword, more than half of the entire group of suicide soldiers had died.
Not everyone could nurture so many suicide soldiers. Only… the Quan family had the capability to do so.
Commander Zhang was shocked, and the joy of finding Noble Consort Ling was washed away.
How was he going to tell Emperor Ling Hui when he returned? If he did, would it implicate him?
The Eldest Prince was Emperor Ling Hui’s only son at the moment. If he really said it, wouldn’t it ruin his future career?
Wait, since it was the future, there was no telling when.
Commander Zhang suddenly prayed in his mind that Emperor Ling Hui would definitely survive.
After ail the suicide soldiers were dealt with, Gou Houxing watched as Nine Heavens was about to take Noble Consort Ling away. Just as he was hating himself for being useless, Chu Tianbao suddenly appeared, followed by a group of dark guards.
Chu Tianbao attacked Nine Heavens. In order for Nine Heavens to resist his attack, and to be careful not to injure Noble Consort Ling, he fought with much difficulty.
“Swish—”
Chu Tianbao suddenly spat a stream of rod gas in his face.
The moment Nine Heavens covered his mouth and nose, the red powder entered his eyes. It was a burning pain.
He closed his eyes and his tears flowed continuously, but he was unwilling to let go of Noble Consort Ling.
In the next second, Chu Tianbao stabbed him in the chest and kicked him away.
Seeing this, Commander Zhang hurriedly stood in front of Chu Tianbao and emphasized again, “General, come back with us. The emperor really won’t blame you.”
“Bang!”
Gou Houxing kicked him away from behind again.
Commander Zhang covered his butt and shouted at Chu Tianbao’s back, “Young General, you can’t leave. If you leave, there’s no turning back.”
Chu Tianbao only left him with a back view without hesitation.
Seeing that they had run far away, Commander Zhang hurriedly went to help Nine Heavens up. “Hey, are you alright? Brother, you can’t die yet!” If you died, who would tell the emperor?
Nine Heavens looked at him coldly. “Gather all the officials and troops in the remaining cities. We must stop them before they enter the southern frontier!”
Commander Zhang spread his hands. “I don’t have the right.”
Nine Heavens suddenly took out a token from his chest. On it was a hole pierced by a sword. It was this golden token that had saved his life.
“Take it!”
Commander Zhang widened his eyes in disbelief. “You actually have the golden token?”
It was rare for Nine Heavens to show a trace of emotion. He glared at him. “Hurry up!”
Commander Zhang nodded repeatedly. “Okay okay okay.”
As soon as he left, Nine Heavens spat out a mouthful of blood. Even though he had luckily dodged Chu Tianbao’s fatal strike, that kick still injured him badly.
Noble Consort Ling had a serious fever. Fortunately, the group of dark guards sent by Bai Wutong to receive them had brought special medicine for emergencies.
After Noble Consort Ling took the medicine, her condition stabilized.
Chu Tianbao heaved a sigh of relief and continued on his way.
Commander Zhang used the golden token that signified the emperor’s arrival to contact the officials guarding various places and mobilized all the commoners to search for Chu Tianbao and the others.
Their traces were constantly exposed. When they were about to reach the southern frontier, there were already three cities’ troops chasing after them.
Gou Houxing complained, “There might not even be so many people in a war!” Emperor Ling Hui really had nothing better to do.
In any case, he already had the land he wanted, so why couldn’t he let Chu Tianbao and Noble Consort Ling off?
Chu Tianbao frowned because Quan family’s suicide soldiers had yet to give up on chasing after them. They had wasted much more time on the way than he had expected. Now that he thought about it, it was very likely that they would not be able to catch up to Bai Wutong’s delivery.
He clenched his fists tightly. He was expressionless, but he was extremely frustrated.
Suddenly, Quan family’s suicide soldiers appeared again. Their numbers were constantly depleting, and there were less than 20 of them left.
Chu Tianbao lowered his eyes. The anger all over his body was like monstrous flames. He rode his horse over and attacked like lightning. A few suicide soldiers fell off their horses.
He fought for the heads again as if he was venting his anger. After a while, he slaughtered the suicide soldiers like melons.
Suddenly, a large number of people appeared in front of him. Gou Houxing was shocked. “It’s Zeng Sanshui’s army!”
Zeng Sanshui was a capable general who had followed Emperor Ling Hui before the rebellion. After Emperor Ling Hui ascended to the throne, he sent him to guard Guanglin. He did not expect him to actually appear at the border of the southern frontier and lead an army to stop Chu Tianbao,
This was clearly an arrangement that Emperor Ling Hui had long expected.
There were wolves in front and tigers behind. Gou Houxing cursed angrily, “Damn it, why is this old man here to join in the fun!”
Chu Tianbao gripped the sword in his hand and lowered his eyes. “Prepare to break out!”
“Yes!”
Zeng Sanshui looked at Chu Tianbao. With just a glance, he saw the shadow of young Emperor Ling Hui on Chu Tianbao’s face.
He glanced at Noble Consort Ling again and discovered an incredible truth in a flash.
It was no wonder that Emperor Linghui had written to him and asked him to stop Chu Tianbao.
‘I see. 1 see.’
Zeng Sanshui said politely, “Young General, the southern frontier is a barbaric place. Why make Your Highness suffer?’1
Chu Tianbao only had one word. “Move!”
The more he looked at his sharp gaze and domineering aura, the more he looked like he was carved from the same mold as Emperor Ling Hui.
This was the Eldest Prince who would convince the public.
Zeng Sanshui persuaded tactfully, “Why do you have to do this? There’s no overnight feud between father and son..”
