Ji Tian Ning's eyes rolled around as she quickly thought of the idea of plotting the White Horse Emperor. If he could stay with Shang Qiuyuan, his safety would be guaranteed. How can I stay here? The White Horse Emperor would definitely not let her off. That attack just now would probably cause the White Horse Emperor to suffer for a long time.

”It can't be that some of its functions have been weakened or lost, right?”

Just now, Ji Tian Ning had been in the tent of the reverse scale fire. He had suddenly launched an attack, his knee striking the reverse scale fire. At that time, the Fire Ni Lin was caught off guard, but his years of reaction and agility during battles of life and death still didn't cause him much damage.

Inside the tent, the Fiery-Scaled Tiger was sitting behind a table. Its face was gloomy, and its eyebrows were creased. Its foot was ruthlessly stepped on, and its ribs were faintly aching. The most frightening thing was the pain between his legs. It was so sore that it almost drove him crazy.

Normally, he would immediately take Ji Tian Ning's life. No matter who begged for mercy, he would never forgive them. However, today, he did not kill Ji Tianning, who had dared to refuse his favor and hurt the Nine Five Supremes. This strange barbarian woman had undoubtedly aroused his great interest and made him think of her as a toy in his heart.

The most important thing was that he wanted to see to what extent Ji Tian Ning's medical skills had reached. He wanted to know if she was able to cure his illness, which even the imperial doctors and famous doctors of the Southern Champion Kingdom could not cure. If it weren't for the strange illness that would torture him from time to time, how would the reverse fire scale be willing to let Ji Tian Ning off?

Shang Qiuyuan walked into the tent and immediately saw the cold and gloomy expression on Huo Ni Lin's face. He lifted his clothes and kneeled on the ground. ”Sinner Shang Qiuyuan greets Your Majesty and thanks Your Majesty for the grace of the heavens.”

A sneer hung at the corner of his lips. Up till now, even Huo Ni Lin still hadn't been able to understand why Shang Qiuyuan, the prince consort of the Fengyuan Kingdom and general of the three armies and the general of the country, would surrender to him.

”Shang Qiuyuan, I'm wondering why you're willing to surrender to me.”

Shang Qiuyuan raised his head, his warm eyes containing respect and faint sorrow. ”For so many years, when sinners and ministers fought with His Majesty, they had offended the heavens in innumerable ways and were long condemned to a thousand deaths. Those pitiful soldiers were innocent. How could they waste their lives on a single criminal? ”Sinners don't ask for anything, but to ask for His Majesty's kindness in treating them, sinners will feel it within themselves.”

”This is not what I want to hear.”

The reverse fire scale's sharp and stern eyes stared at Shang Qiuyuan. The person kneeling in front of him was the Southern Champion Kingdom's greatest enemy in the past few years. Many times he had fought with Qiuyuan, but he had not been able to gain any advantage.

”Since this subject has already pledged his allegiance to His Majesty, I have no other intentions in this life. I hope that Your Majesty will understand.”

”Oh, absolutely? ”What if I order you to immediately take the vanguard and attack the Fengyuan Kingdom?”

Shang Qiuyuan lowered his eyelids slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face. However, within that smile was an indescribable indifference and melancholy.

”A sovereign's orders cannot be disobeyed. A sinful subject will obey the decree without hesitation. However, this was not the best time to attack Fengyuan Country. ”Your Majesty, please wait a moment. There will be chaos within Fengyuan Country.”

Huo Ni Lin looked at Shang Qiuyuan with interest. ”Tell me about it, I want to hear about it.”

”Reporting to Your Majesty, the weather has changed in Fengyuan Country!”

”So that's the case. No wonder Shang Qiuyuan requested for a surrender before the battle. Presumably, it was because of this unforeseen event.” The Fengyuan Kingdom had changed. In other words, the opportunity for the Southern Champion Kingdom had also arrived. But among them, what sort of role did Shang Qiuyuan play?

Ji Tian Ning looked pitifully at Pei Zicheng under the urging of the enmity with his eyes. However, Pei Zisheng and the rest had no choice but to lower their heads in shame. They were all retainers, how could they dare to go against the reverse scale of fire? One had to know that the lives of all five thousand of their officers were in the hands of the fire reverse scale.

Ji Tian Ning knew that these people could not save her. According to the legends, only a few people who were not afraid of death would dare to provoke the Emperor.

If you dare to pull the emperor off his horse, then you better watch out for me. The Asura Queen isn't called for free. If you dare to violate me again, don't blame me for being rude!

He had hidden a small knife under his shoe and used his socks to hide it, pretending to tie the shoelace. No one had thought that Ji Tian Ning would be so daring as to hide the knife on his body. The knife was too small for anyone to notice.

Like a snail, Ji Tian Ning crawled towards the tent made of fire reverse scales. At this moment, she could only hope that a divine lightning would descend from the sky and strike her back into the modern world.

In the distance, a white silhouette was calmly walking towards her. Under the night sky and under the bright moonlight, Shang Qiuyuan was like a snow lotus flower that had appeared out of thin air, clean and pure like dust.

Her elegant face was always warm and calm, causing people's hearts to sink. Upon seeing Shang Qiuyuan, Ji Tianning's eyes lit up. He had finally found someone to rely on. Since she was treating him, he should at least give her a helping hand.

Ji Tian Ning walked toward Shang Qiuyuan, her eyes blinking pitifully as she desperately charged towards him. She muttered in her heart, ”Handsome brother, why don't you sacrifice yourself? No matter what, we still have some friendship. My safety is up to you. You can't abandon me, or I won't even have a place to cry. ”
