Chapter 202 - The Forces of Both Sides (2/2)
“Yes, our opponents’ martial arts isn’t low but none of our brothers were severely injured. Our opponent only had a few who were injured. This power is most likely equally matched with Wu Qing Pavilion, or even stronger than Wu Qing Pavilion, but no matter how much we investigate, we haven’t found out which faction they belong to!” Lan Ren said grimly. For this matter, he’s been so busy he hasn’t stopped to rest.
“Pass down orders, send more people to investigate this force, but if encountered, if they can beat them, then fight, if they can’t, then run. They’re not allowed to not take their lives seriously. Everything’s good as long as they have their life!” Lan You Nian laid back down. Many of Wu Qing Pavilion’s manpower were trained by second brother. They were all very loyal. Though these people were her subordinates, as long as they were loyal to her, she will protect them with everything she had.
“I heard it’s already spring in Jiangnan,” Lan You Nian said.
“Yes, on the entire continent, only Jiangnan is as warm as spring!” Lan Qu said.
Lan You Nian nodded, and said, “In a few days, we’ll go sight-seeing to Jiangnan. It’s dull being stuck in the capital!” Actually, she was too fearful of the cold. Besides, it’d be convenient for her to investigate Heaven’s Tears Heart location if she went personally to Jiangnan.
“Yes!” Lan Wu was the first to throw both her hands up in agreement. She was really bored out of her mind in the capital. In the winter, young miss didn’t take a step out the door, she was about to mold from being stuck indoors. She went to Jiangnan once with young miss. It was truly beautiful!
“Young miss, but what about Ming wang…” Lan Qu said with concern. Everyone knew Ming wang’s feelings for young miss. On a normal day his possessiveness was frightening, if young miss went to Jiangnan for some time, who knows if Ming wang would agree.
Lan You Nian laid down and snuggled into the quilt on the couch, her words muffled, “This young miss’s man, of course this young miss will bring him along!”

In the military camp, Feng Yi Xuan, dressed in black brocade robes, stood in the wind as he overlooked the Ming army that was training below, his face aloof and cold, displaying a proud indifference. A lofty stance like a sovereign standing high up above the world, looking down at everyone, that overpowering bearing declaring Feng Yi Xuan’s extraordinariness, lofty as a sovereign, giving people the feeling of him being a war god living existing in slaughter, making people’s hearts tremble.
“Prime Minister An seems to have mobilized his troops. Do we need to withdraw some of the troops from the borders back?” Feng Xia Qi stood beside Feng Yi Xuan overlooking the Ming army below and couldn’t help praising, these were the real soldiers, the type that can take down ten with just one.
Feng Yi Xuan apathetically observed the ground and said, “The forces at the borders can’t be touched. Recently, Yue country has been restless. The Empress’s faction can’t escape blame. If the border forces were moved, it’d be difficult to defend the country!”
“True!” Feng Xia Qi nodded and said, “It’s been so many years. It’s about time we should end this! Though the Empress’s faction has a lot of military forces, we aren’t lacking either. We also have Lan Jian Jun’s military forces. The odds are in our favor!”
“Hn, just some clowns!” Feng Yi Xuan sneered coldly. The moment the Empress’s faction dared to rebel, he would be perfectly justified in completely eradicating the Empress’s faction. The imperial court will be much cleaner in the future.
“Alright, you be careful. You now have Nian’er meimei, so pay more attention to your safety!” Feng Xia Qi advised. He was aware of his younger brother’s carelessness with his own life when on the battlefield. No one dared to face him off. Feng Yi Xuan has suffered innumerable injuries. He wrote many letters to persuade him but it was no use.
Sure enough, upon mentioning Lan You Nian, Feng Yi Xuan’s face warmed up, even his voice filled with warmth, “I will be careful!” He wanted to do many many things with Nian Nian. He still had to marry in Nian Nian, so how can he let something happen to him?
Feng Xia Qi left once their discussion ended. An Yi appeared behind Feng Yi Xuan.
“Master, Wu Qing Pavilion is also searching for Heavens’ Tears Heart!” An Yi said. When master was in the Medical Valley, he passed down the message to have all of Ghost Realm’s forces search for Heavens’ Tear Heart. As their Ghost Realm was searching for Heaven’s Tear Heart, they encountered Wu Qing Pavilion’s people who were also looking for Heaven’s Tear Heart. The two forces got into a scuffle, but An Yi, remembering the deep relationship between wangfei and Wu Qing Pavilion, immediately withdrew.
When Feng Yi Xuan heard this, his entire person became even more vicious. He originally thought shifu only told him to look for Heaven’s Tear Heart, but now it seems shifu also told Nian Nian. But Nian Nian didn’t tell him; instead, she told Young Master Wu Qing. It appears this Master Wu Qing had some weight in Nian Nian’s heart!
“Continue to search. Find it before Wu Qing Pavilion!” Feng Yi Xuan said. He won’t allow that Master Wu Qing to obtain any merits in front of Nian Nian, “Have Ghost Realm’s forces undermine Wu Qing Pavilion’s forces. Don’t harm anyone. Just teach them a lesson!”
Though Feng Yi Xuan disliked Master Wu Qing, he knew Master Wu Qing was good to Nian Nian and took care of Nian Nian for many years. If he really did anything to Master Wu Qing, the one who would be upset would still be Nian Nian. Feng Yi Xuan wouldn’t do anything to make Nian Nian upset. But finding some misery for Master Wu Qing was still doable.
Feng Yi Xuan was unaware that because of his petty thoughts of jealousy, he slept alone for many days…
