Chapter 144: The People of Emperor Tianqi Are Perverts

~8 min read 1,490 words

Seeing Jun Jun Zijin's words left Fei Ying speechless; he could only turn his head away in frustration.

Of course he knew that at this critical juncture, the girl's arrangement must have its reasons, but this time the girl was far too reckless.

"What about the Bi Bo Ting..." Fei Yan asked, worried.

Jun Jun Zijin shook her head gently:

"No need to worry about that place for now. He must have taken the vaccine and sent it out in a hurry; after all, time waits for no one."

Afterwards, Jun Jun Zijin turned and instructed Guazi:

"Guazi, notify Miss Huasheng. I will be away for two days; have her watch over the manor."

—————————

In the Northern Frontier, the Northern Kingdom invaded the Emperor Tianqi border, striking together with Emperor Tianqi rebels from within and without.

Beacon fires blazed across the Northern Frontier as the Northern Kingdom's iron cavalry trampled the tranquility of the Emperor Tianqi border.

At the same time, the rebels in the Emperor Tianqi border stirred, forming a critical situation of being attacked from within and without.

Quan Quan Aoyu led an expedition to the Northern Frontier.

Within the Northern Kingdom's army on the frontier, morale had originally been soaring; however, someone contracted smallpox. With troops densely packed like ants swarming to a scent, once someone fell ill with such a virulent infectious disease, if handled improperly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At first, there were only scattered cases, but the Northern Kingdom's army commanders did not take it seriously, thinking it was merely a common case of typhoid.

Sure enough, the smallpox virus ran wild like a horse unbridled, ravaging the military camp.

By the time the Northern Kingdom commanders realized the severity of the problem, it was too late.

One by one, soldiers ran high fevers that would not break; entire groups of soldiers fell in the camp, their lives like dying candles in the autumn wind, flickering and ready to extinguish, blown out by a single breath.

This sudden smallpox epidemic hung like a dark cloud over the Northern Kingdom camp; despair and fear permeated the enemy ranks, and morale plummeted to its lowest point.

The Northern Kingdom army was utterly routed and had no choice but to retreat voluntarily.

Quan Quan Aoyu seized the opportunity to pursue and successfully captured Wencheng, a key city on the Northern Kingdom border.

As a general defending his home and country, Quan Quan Aoyu was certain the enemy would not abandon all their soldiers.

Sure enough, the enemy army, having no choice, retreated to Yancheng in the Northern Kingdom; Yancheng was the second city on the Northern Kingdom border. Soon, the garrison of Yancheng also fell ill one after another, and the situation became uncontrollable.

The commander's heart was bitter: Emperor Tianqi soldiers were not afraid of smallpox, but his Northern Kingdom was not; how could they fight in such a state? He feared it would not be long before even the capital was lost! The Northern Kingdom, helpless, voluntarily sought peace.

Under the shadow of death, the common people of Yancheng trembled; they fled to Emperor Tianqi in droves, seeking refuge.

This was the moment to demonstrate the grandeur of the great power of Emperor Tianqi. Quan Quan Aoyu ordered that as long as their identities were verified, Emperor Tianqi was willing to accept these innocent Northern Kingdom commoners and do its best to treat the sick.

Quan Quan Aoyu's act of benevolence deeply touched the hearts of the Northern Kingdom people. More and more Northern Kingdom commoners settled down and prospered in Emperor Tianqi. This is a story for later.

————————

Seeing Jun Jun Zijin, knowing her whereabouts had been exposed, still went to the military camp.

He knew Seeing Jun Jun Zijin's nature well; once she made up her mind, no one could stop her.

To ensure Seeing Jun Jun Zijin's safety, Fei Ying sent a secret letter to Quan Quan Tianchen in the military camp.

After arranging matters in the manor, Seeing Jun Jun Zijin, accompanied by three subordinates of high Wu Gong, hurried toward the military camp.

Winter sunlight filtered through sparse clouds, casting a golden glow upon them, as if draping them in golden armor.

The cold wind bit sharply; Seeing Jun Jun Zijin rode her horse, her gaze sharp as a torch, surveying the surroundings, ready at any moment to deal with potential dangers.

Fei Ying, Fei Yan, and Guazi protected her in the middle, one after another, galloping swiftly toward the military camp.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded. Fei Ying in front immediately pulled tight on the reins.

The horse let out a neigh, rearing its front hooves high.

Almost at the same instant, a group of black-clad figures leaped from the dense forest ahead, wielding sharp blades, their killing intent thick as they blocked their path.

Seeing Jun Jun Zijin and her three subordinates quickly spread out, took their positions, and drew their swords to meet the enemy.

Suddenly, someone among the black-clad figures shouted loudly:

"Capture Seeing Jun Jun Zijin alive! Do not harm her life!"

These thieves were clearly coming for Seeing Jun Jun Zijin.

This shout made Seeing Jun Jun Zijin understand immediately: these black-clad figures were not here to take her life, but to kidnap her; most likely they were after her medical skills, or to force her to produce a smallpox vaccine closely related to the current war situation.

Seeing Jun Jun Zijin let out a cold sneer:

"Want to capture me alive? Not so easy."

With that, she fired her anesthetic gun repeatedly. Silver needles soaked in high-strength anesthetic and poison immediately felled several black-clad figures.

Guazi's dual blades were decisive and ruthless; one cut, one down.

The black-clad figures had already received word: these few were perverts.

That stinking girl who used hidden weapons, though possessing no internal strength and no lightness skill, was untouchable with her hidden weapons; once touched, it was definitely game over. The dagger in her hand went straight for people's necks; she loved to cut throats, never dragging things out.

The other stinking girl left no survivors under her dual blades; she targeted people's heads, cutting them down like melons and vegetables, one cut, one down, without a shred of mercy.

The black-clad figures confirmed silently in their hearts: it must be these two stinking girls.

The other few men, though clearly using bows, were accustomed to wielding arrows like blades; if struck by an arrow, heads would roll how far.

However, today there were only four of them, so the black-clad figures relaxed their vigilance somewhat.

Who knew that the moment vigilance relaxed, Fei Yan's arrow slashed through; the instant that man's head fell, Fei Ying kicked it, and the head flew like a ball to the foot of the mountain.

The black-clad figures stood dumbfounded: perverts, truly perverts!

This battle did not last long; having received Fei Ying's secret letter, Quan Quan Tianchen, frantic with anxiety, rushed over.

Seeing Jun Jun Zijin was delighted, but Quan Quan Tianchen, usually as gentle as jade, now wore a dark face.

Seeing that Jun Jun Zijin had never seen Quan Quan Tianchen radiate such intense cold air, she shrank her neck, and the words "Fourth Brother" got stuck in her throat.

She blinked her eyes, looking at Quan Quan Tianchen in confusion.

At this moment, Quan Quan Tianchen cared for nothing else; seeing the black-clad figures realize the situation was dire and try to retreat, leaving their comrades' corpses behind.

Quan Quan Tianchen would not let them off; it was just the right time to test the results of the Divine Arrow Team.

The soldiers of the Divine Arrow Team, seeing their instructor, were also in high spirits, each eager to show off their skills before Seeing Jun Jun Zijin.

Quan Quan Tianchen waved his hand, and the Divine Arrow Team quickly formed ranks. The members drew their bows and nocked arrows, their movements perfectly synchronized.

The arrowheads shimmered with cold light in the sunlight, their targets pointing directly at the fleeing men in black.

At the command, the sharp arrows flew together, chasing the men in black like falling stars. Wherever the men in black fled to hide, the arrows followed; the shafts remained as their shadow.

The men in black clutched their heads and fled. One of them shouted:

"Perverts! Everyone from Emperor Tianqi is a pervert!"

Little did they know that shout revealed the secret of their identity.

"Pfft," Jun Jun Zijin chuckled in her heart and laughed out loud.

She hadn't expected to glance at Quan Quan Tianchen, who still wore a cold expression; she froze for an instant before stepping over to his side:

"Fourth Brother, what exactly is wrong with you?"

Quan Quan Tianchen was truly angry this time:

"You really can't be left to your own devices? Do you know how dangerous it is to use yourself as bait?"
