Chapter 212: Chapter 200 Exposure

Under Danni’s personal treatment, it would be difficult for Lu Hong not to recover.

This time, his fame spread far across the Star Sea, and even the Eagle Alliance had heard about him, secretly keeping an eye on this rising star.

"Tukulu, aren’t you eating anymore?" Lu Hong lay on Nono’s tender legs, spitting out the peels of imperial grapes contributed by a vassal state.

"Of course, I’ll eat." After regaining consciousness, Lu Hong did not want to recall the painful experiences in the Endless Forest; he just wanted to immerse himself in a gentle world and enjoy some tranquil days.

Danni stood by, smiling at Lu Hong, and said, "Tukulu, you did a good job this time."

"Really?" Lu Hong jumped up from Nono’s body in surprise and joyfully asked, "Does that mean there’s some sort of reward?"

"Reward?" Danni tilted her head; she hadn’t really considered such a thing but then said, "As long as it’s not excessive, I’ll agree."

"Good, good, good!" Lu Hong laughed foolishly, certain this deal would definitely be worth it.

"Tukulu, you’d better think carefully. There are many treasures in your aunt’s collection, and they are all top-tier items of the twelfth level."

Hearing Nono’s hint to Lu Hong, Danni sighed inwardly. This kid wasn’t interested in worldly possessions; the reward was clearly aimed at her.

Glancing at Lu Hong’s eyes, which were deeply focused on her beautiful legs, Danni spat out softly, "You little pervert!"

"Ah?" Nono didn’t hear clearly: "Auntie, what did you say?"

"Nothing." Danni shook her head and then, with a sense of urgency, Lily walked quickly into the great hall and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, there’s trouble!"

"Has there been another change in the situation with the Endless Forest battle?" Lu Hong took over the conversation.

Looking at the man before her, Lily’s face suddenly flushed. Her perception of Lu Hong had completely changed after watching the footage; she had shed her previous biases. Now, whenever Lily saw Lu Hong, her face would turn red, completely like a young girl in the throes of spring. In fact, not just Lily – Lu Hong had become an idol in the hearts of young girls everywhere through the widespread footage, and in Ice Spirit City, in every girl’s boudoir, who didn’t keep a copy of Lu Hong’s bloody battle to watch nightly?

"The specifics, please discuss with Your Majesty in the council hall. The Ministers of Military Affairs are all waiting for you."

"Alright." Nono nodded, bid farewell to Lu Hong and Danni, and hurried to the council hall with Lily.

"What could it be?"

Danni smiled, "What else could it be? It’s probably just the Divine Blood River being exposed."

"Exposed?" Lu Hong was taken aback: "Has the Empire successfully collected it?"

"It’s still early. The Divine Blood River being exposed was only a matter of time. The regular movements of the demon beasts in the Endless Forest couldn’t possibly be hidden from everyone. That it was hidden up until today is already the best possible outcome." Danni explained, "The Empire has already built sturdy defenses near the Divine Blood River. If not for this, why would they abandon the ancient plains’ battlefield and let you fall into danger?"

"Since the Empire is prepared, I won’t worry unnecessarily." Saying this, Lu Hong narrowed his eyes with a sly turn.

Danni felt a burning gaze starting from her thighs and climbing up, settling on her proud chest, impossible to pry away.

"You little pervert, what are you thinking!" Being alone with Lu Hong made Danni both shy and angry. She knocked hard on his head.

"Ouch." Lu Hong pretended to be in pain, but seeing Danni’s cold smile, he gave up the exaggerated act. She was the Tower Master, and he couldn’t fool her.

"I’m thinking about what reward to ask you for." Lu Hong chuckled, his expression unusually lascivious.

Danni knew it would be like this and took a deep breath, "Tell me, as long as it’s not excessive."

"Then, a kiss." Lu Hong puckered up, moving closer to Danni’s face.

"No way!" Danni immediately rejected Lu Hong, "That’s excessive!"

"That’s excessive?"

Seeing Lu Hong’s disappointed expression, Danni hesitated for a moment and then said, "Then... then okay."

Having said that, Danni quickly pecked Lu Hong on the cheek.

Pop~

It was so quick that Lu Hong barely felt it.

"Done?" Lu Hong was stunned. "Kissing, huh! Not the cheek!"

"Either way, I’ve already given out the reward," Danni began to play the scamp, stumping her foot and disappearing inside the palace.

"Hey! Come back! Don’t go!" No matter how much Lu Hong shouted, Danni did not reappear. Alright, not long after meeting, he had managed to drive her away again.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades must still strive!

Lu Hong silently cheered himself on.

Speaking of Danni’s appearances, Lando was always sure to follow.

A seductive, delicate voice drifted into Lu Hong’s ear, "Little man, do you miss me?"

"Lando? How did you get into the Imperial Palace?!" Lu Hong was startled. She was the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Hell Sect, a most wanted figure in the North, loathed to the bone by the Xiahe family because of Ze Xiu’s setup and ambush. If Lando was discovered, she was certain not to walk out alive.

"No worries, I have ways to avoid the guards, now come out quickly."

Following Lando’s guidance, Lu Hong found his way to a deserted palace, which looked long abandoned and uninhabited.

"Come in~" Lando’s voice came from inside.

Lu Hong pushed open the door, inside had already been tidied up by Lando’s magic. Lando herself was clad only in a thin layer of silk, her enchanting figure outlined without doubt.

"Little man, your display has really excited me, I’m just so in love with you!" Lando crooked a finger, and a surge of magic power lifted Lu Hong straight onto the bed.

Before Lu Hong could speak, fervent, red lips sealed his mouth.

Spring was in full bloom.

As for Nono, she was currently listening, with furrowed brows, to the ministers’ discussions below.

Danni’s guess was not wrong – the Divine Blood River had been exposed, though the cause was not yet clear. Whether it was a leak from within the Empire or the Snow Clan had traced a clue did not matter now for discussion.

But the situation was very critical. The Snow Clan had been furious over the unprovoked slaughtering of their city by the Hell Sect. Learning of the Divine Blood River, they handed the information straight to the Beastman Empire. Wu Jiang, who had rushed to the Ancient Plains, turned his troops around and headed for the Divine Blood River. The Han Snow Army, barely recovered from their previous brutal battle, had to stall the approaching Beastman Army.

The battle went very poorly; the Han Snow Army suffered a crushing defeat, retreating with only seven hundred thousand to the second line of defense. The Beastman Army reached the vicinity of the Divine Blood River within seven days, fiercely engaging the Sacred Empire, a battle which had no end in sight.

Tai’e, who had absorbed the Divine Blood River, knew well of its importance, and thus issued a command for the immense Beastman Empire to throw in all their forces, resolving to wrest the Blood River away from the Sacred Empire’s hands.

The Empire, having just battled the Snow Clan, was severely weakened. Facing the full-scale assault from the Beastman Empire, they had no choice but to call for help from the Eagle Alliance. Although the Eagle Alliance blamed their ally for not sharing information, they still dispatched troops to assist; after all, they could not allow the Divine Blood River to be taken by the Beastman.

While the combined forces of the Sacred Empire and the Eagle Alliance pressed against the Beastman Army, the Snow Clan Great Emperor gave the order for his troops to emerge from Ice Extension Valley and launch an attack on the Empire’s northern border.

This time, the Snow Clan Great Emperor was taking advantage of the Empire’s current predicament, initiating war right from the Divine Grace headquarters.

The Xiahe family, to protect the safety of the northern border, extracted their troops from the Endless Forest, fortifying Hanguguan Pass.

Having lost the support of the Xiahe family, Konstantin and the Eagle Alliance also started to struggle against the Beastman.

The Empire was now fighting a war on two fronts, stretching the nation’s strength thin and leaving it in dire straits.

"Your Majesty, this onslaught from the Snow Clan is fierce; I fear we can barely hold off!"

"Your Majesty, I believe the Snow Clan choosing to launch war on Divine Grace’s home soil is actually a cause for celebration in our country. The northern border’s strong can still resist the Beastman in the Endless Forest."

"You cannot say such things. The Snow Clan’s troops this time are as many as eight million strong."

"Minister Du, although the Snow Clan numbers eight million, their combat strength is ordinary, with Second Transition being their limit. If we speak of Second Transition numbers, our Empire’s domains are full of numerous young talents."

After much discussion, the conclusion reached was that the Snow Clan’s attack was not something the northern border couldn’t defend against on its own. Additionally, strong warriors still needed to be sent into the Endless Forest to vie for any slim chance.

"Your Majesty, the Roland Knight Order can also be deployed to the front lines, to join in the defense against the Snow Clan."

"Going there too?" Nono hesitated for a moment. To be honest, she didn’t want the Roland Knights to enter the northern battlefield again because if the Roland Knights went to the front line, Lu Hong would definitely have to go too.

"We must go!" the ministers said in unison. "Only through striving in battle can the young knights grow to become the strongest shield at Your Majesty’s side."

"Alright." Other than going berserk when she saw Lu Hong severely wounded and dying, Nono was quite amenable the rest of the time.
