Chapter 1852: Throwing Into the Military Camp
Ye Liuyun confirmed, "Really! She's going to train and fight; wearing this armor makes her safer, and I'm relieved!"
He Lian Qiang kept praising Ye Liuyun, "That's true—sixth‑rank armor is enough to keep her alive! I didn't realize you'd spend a fortune courting a girl!"
Ye Liuyun then handed the fifth‑rank sword to He Lian Xiu, telling her to put it away.
Then Ye Liuyun said, "The banquet's over, so I'll head back first!"
"You take her back!"
He Lian Qiang reminded Ye Liuyun.
"You're already engaged, what's there to be shy about! You'll stay at her place tonight, and I won't object!"
He Lian Qiang wore a mischievous grin.
Ye Liuyun ignored his hint and simply said, "I don't even know where she lives!"
"She knows herself."
"Or just bring her back to your place! She's already married off, I'm not worried about it!"
After saying that, He Lian Qiang turned and left.
He feared that if he stayed any longer, he'd be unable to resist snatching that gilded armor to try it on.
Ye Liuyun, helpless, had to pull He Lian Xiu outside.
He Lian Xiu kept asking, "Is this clothing really for me?"
"Do I have to take it off?"
"Really, you wear it!"
Ye Liuyun had to confirm again.
"Then I'll wear it tonight and sleep in it!"
He Lian Xiu said.
"Whatever you want!"
Ye Liuyun said helplessly.
Fortunately He Lian Xiu could still find the way.
Ye Liuyun escorted her back to her residence; she seemed a bit clearer‑headed.
Seeing Ye Liuyun arrive at her place left her a little at a loss.
She awkwardly asked, "You haven't eaten anything just now; want a little more?"
"No need, I've taken you back, my mission is complete, I should go back."
Ye Liuyun immediately took his leave.
Before leaving, he reminded He Lian Xiu, "Don't ever expose this clothing again, or people will start eyeing you."
"Okay!"
He Lian Xiu nodded repeatedly.
"Also—"
"Tomorrow I'll head back to Royal City."
"You should pack up too."
"When you're ready, come find me; we'll leave straight away."
"Got it!"
He Lian Xiu answered again.
Ye Liuyun didn't bother checking whether she'd understood, and went back to his quarters to cultivate.
The items the Western Liang King sent, he handed over to Lan Xin to sort; he set aside anything unnecessary, planning to exchange them back in Royal City.
He also didn't want to go find Xuan Yuan Ling, lest she speak sourly to him.
He Lian Xiu spent the whole night in an excited state, lying in bed wearing the clothes, occasionally hopping up to change the style and color, admiring herself repeatedly in the mirror.
She even used the fifth‑rank sword to cut the hem, testing the garment's quality tier.
He Lian Xiu tossed about all night; riding the excitement, at dawn she gathered five female soldiers, donned the military uniform, and went looking for Ye Liuyun.
"This early?"
"Did you finish packing everything?"
Ye Liuyun hadn't expected her to come so early.
"Everything's been packed for a long time!"
He Lian Xiu replied.
"Is the clothing underneath?"
Ye Liuyun asked another question.
"Yes."
"Thank you! This is the most precious gift I've ever received in my life!"
He Lian Xiu said.
Ye Liuyun smiled and told her, "The military life ahead will be the most precious gift of your life! Once I bring you to Royal City, I'll throw you straight into the military camp and stop caring about you.
You all must keep your identities secret."
"Alright! We're all ready!"
He Lian Xiu and the female soldiers all nodded in agreement.
"Then let's go!"
Ye Liuyun didn't hesitate, led them out of the Royal Mansion, released the Flying Boat, and rushed back to Royal City.
"Your good stuff is really a lot! This Flying Boat is also sixth‑rank?"
He Lian Xiu certainly knows quality.
Her background also means she has considerable insight.
"If you need anything! I don't have many other things!"
Ye Liuyun now doesn't mind chatting with her.
Next, He Lian Xiu, being quite considerate, asked him about the barracks' training conditions and the battlefield situation, learning some camp information.
She also knows that if she wants Ye Liuyun to talk more, she must bring up topics he finds interesting.
Sure enough, Ye Liuyun spoke about these without reservation, even telling them many things about the border battlefields.
"If I die in battle, would you be sad?"
He Lian Xiu suddenly asked.
Ye Liuyun was also taken aback and didn't answer her directly: "No one can guarantee they'll stay alive, I'm no different.
If you want to survive, there's only one way: keep improving your strength."
"Then do you have defensive armor?
What grade is it?
You gave this armor to me, what about you?"
He Lian Xiu immediately asked concernedly.
She also thought that Ye Liuyun must face even greater danger than she does.
"I have fifth‑grade and sixth‑grade armor, and several sets! My armor gets worn out quickly; after just a few battles it's often ruined!"
Ye Liuyun smiled and reassured her.
"Then you must encounter danger often?"
He Lian Xiu, hearing him say that, became worried instead.
Ye Liuyun could only say, "It's fine; I'm used to handling it."
"Then this piece of armor should still go to you!"
He Lian Xiu said.
"Just wear it! And don't bring it up again in the future!"
Ye Liuyun said directly.
"Oh!"
He Lian Xiu saw that Ye Liuyun's tone seemed a bit impatient, and she fell silent.
She never expected that Ye Liuyun also had a gilded armor.
The others hadn't thought of it either.
Having even one of these is already remarkable; who could have imagined he possessed so many.
Moreover, Ye Liuyun rarely shows it; normally he also wears a fifth‑grade armor on the outside.
Ye Liuyun's Flying Boat was swift; after returning to Royal City, he actually tossed He Lian Xiu and the others into the barracks.
Then he called Xiao Yunfang and Yu Xiaofeng over and gave them a brief briefing.
"Assign He Lian Xiu and the others to Yu Xiaofeng's unit; just act as if you don't know.
Xiao Yunfang, you also speak little to her; treat her as an ordinary soldier."
"Then what if danger arises during battle?"
Yu Xiaofeng asked anxiously.
"She has sixth‑grade armor underneath; no need to worry about her."
Ye Liuyun said directly.
"Did you give her that piece of clothing?"
Xiao Yunfang also caught on.
"There's no way; the Western Region King's gifts to me are too many."
Ye Liuyun gave a brief explanation, then recounted the experience of this return to Yu Xiaofeng and Xiao Yunfang.
He didn't send them the entire Divine Realm map, only the maps of the Western Region, Southern Region, and the border area.
"The Western Region King's appetite is quite big!"
Yu Xiaofeng and Xiao Yunfang were also quite surprised.
Ye Liuyun also said, "Regardless, at least the early‑stage objective of attacking the border battlefield aligns with our expectations.
We still need to prioritize cooperation.
We'll decide the next steps based on the situation; of course, it's best to keep cooperating!"
