Chapter 241: 141, 142. Invitation, Farming, Battlefield, Rescue (Large Chapter - Seeking Subscriptions)_3

One must admit, the Yan Family does have some capabilities, especially this Yan Banruo’s son, Yan Baixiang, who fights with extreme bravery and deploys troops like a deluge. A single charge from him, and even the Six Towns have to step aside.

However, today, things are not looking good.

Yan Baixiang’s charge was too fierce, and now he couldn’t turn back.

Watching Yan Baixiang being surrounded by the enemy, Yan Banruo kept sending wave after wave of his troops to attempt a rescue, but it was like dropping stones into the sea, stirring not the slightest ripple.

As his trump cards were used up one by one, Yan Banruo grew more anxious, then suddenly glanced at some female soldiers accompanying the army, sighed in his heart, and immediately went over, instructing, "The time has come."

These female soldiers were handpicked desperados, and also followers of the Fox Immortal. Normally... these female soldiers would be offering incense to worship the Fox Immortal.

Knowing their mission, the female soldiers, upon hearing the Prime Lord’s order, immediately followed Yan Banruo into the army’s main tent.

Yan Banruo hastily took out a scroll painting and placed it before the shrine.

On the painting, a cold and charming young lady bore two tails, with skin white as porcelain, and an attitude of aloof superiority, peerless in grace and beauty.

The female soldiers offered incense and worshiped devoutly.

Yan Banruo also prayed earnestly, his heart repeating the words: "Fairy Sister, it doesn’t matter if you don’t come to see me, but right now your son Baixiang is trapped in the midst of a chaotic army. Can you bear to see him killed by the chaotic army?"

The shrine’s incense burned steadily, and sweat started to bead on Yan Banruo’s forehead.

And at this moment, suddenly, one of the female soldiers’ expression changed, becoming detached, haughty, and disdainful, even showing a hint of contempt and disgust for everything in the world.

She glanced at Yan Banruo, who was still worshiping, and said, "Let’s go."

Yan Banruo was startled momentarily, then lifted his head to meet the female soldier’s gaze, and instantly understood that the one he had been longing to see had arrived. This man, once dubbed "the most handsome man in Dashang," felt his heart race as he stepped forward and adoringly called out, "Fairy Sister."

It was in fact the Head of the Su Family, Su Mengzhen.

In the past, in order to leave descendants, she hastily chose the most handsome man in Dashang and then cursorily gave birth to an offspring.

However, she held no attachment to these mortal people.

Only today, hearing the prayer that involved her offspring, did she come to save the day.

As for Yan Banruo, she did not wish to pay attention to him, nor did she have any intention of rekindling old affections.

The title "Fairy Sister" went unheard by her, as she arrogantly held her head high, walked out of the tent coldly, without giving Yan Banruo a second look, and then quickly gave a few instructions after understanding the situation.

In no time... a hundred riderless horses charged forward.

The Six Towns had no idea what was being plotted.

But in the blink of an eye, the riderless horses reached the army surrounding Yan Baixiang.

And from under the belly of a group of black horses in the center, suddenly, someone flipped up.

Time seemed to slow down, the air stirred as if rippling, and the falling snow became dreamy...

That someone was dancing gracefully atop the horses’ bellies, as the horses ran wild; yet she spun and leaped, her petite feet flitting back and forth across the charging horses as if on a stage’s center.

Swish~~

Invisible ripples spread out, enveloping the area.

The soldiers from the Six Towns nearby instantly fell into a stupor.

The charging path of the horses was carefully chosen, skirting the edge of the encirclement like a sharp dagger cutting across the top of the siege, creating a clear opening.

Yan Baixiang, not understanding the reason but noticing that soldiers were frozen in place, led his troops in that direction, cutting down the stupefied soldiers to forge a bloody path back to the central army.

Looking back, the hundred fast horses and the dancing person had already plunged into the enemy’s main camp like a suicide mission, becoming deeply encircled, with no hope of return.

After a long while...

Yan Baixiang returned to the central army, removed his helmet, saw Yan Banruo, and curiously asked, "Father, who was that woman dancing on the horse earlier?"

Yan Banruo replied softly, "Your mother came to save you."

"Mother!"

Upon hearing this word, Yan Baixiang’s eyes immediately reddened as he clenched his fists.

And just then, one of the female soldiers stepped forward.

Father and son both had their gazes drawn to her, and upon looking, they saw the female soldier looking only at Yan Baixiang, then with an authoritative and definite tone, she said, "Xiang, do not be so reckless next time."

Yan Baixiang was stunned, then quickly realizing, exclaimed, "Mother!"

Yan Banruo waved his hand, signaling the other female soldiers to leave.

In the tent, only the "family of three" remained.

The female soldier gave Yan Baixiang a severe scolding, and then stood up to leave.

Yan Banruo, as if sensing something, gestured for Yan Baixiang to go out first, then pleaded, "Fairy Sister, please come back... if you come back, I’ll do anything you say."

The female soldier shook her head.

Yan Banruo continued to plead.

However, no matter how much he begged, the female soldier simply shook her head.

A little while later, when Yan Banruo was still repeating his previous actions, he finally realized that Fairy Sister had already left.

He stood there for a long time with a melancholic expression, feeling a profound sense of loss before he finally walked out of the tent.

...

...

Days passed by.

The last group of refugees heading south from the Prefectural City finally departed.

Hanping Prefecture became completely Hanping Village, a small island standing alone in the northern lands.

One by one, masters of the Qi Realm were "produced" like on an assembly line.

Every day, people would exclaim in amazement, "I’ve broken through, I’ve really broken through, is this the power of the Qi Realm?"

Then, more people would discover with shock and elation that "this breakthrough wasn’t just to the Initial Period of the Qi Realm, but it was carrying them to Great Achievement"...

Great Achievement meant an additional lifespan of two sets of sixty years.

For ordinary people, that’s a full one hundred and twenty more years of life.
