Cong Chusheng was a hot-blooded nineteen-year-old young man. When he heard this, his face turned red from anger. “Then come and try!”

After saying that, he sprinkled a handful of medicinal powder on the people surrounding him. Anyone who breathed in the powder fell to the ground.

When Li Yuan’an saw this, he was furious and shouted, “Archers!”

Immediately, Cong Chusheng and Li Yuanshao became targets.

Seeing this, Li Yuanshao and Cong Chusheng felt despair. In this mansion, they were like birds in a cage. They had no freedom and could not fly out.

In the end, Li Yuanshao was roughly dragged into the room, and Cong Chusheng was thrown to the prison.

Li Yuanshao had been sick all year round and had never been in good health. How could he have the strength to resist Li Yuan’an? Seeing Li Yuan’an approaching step by step, he felt hopeless.

Li Yuanshao trembled as he retreated step by step…

Li Yuan’an suddenly took a big stride ahead and grabbed Li Yuanshao’s hand. He smiled lewdly and said, “As long as you obey, I won’t make things difficult for you!”

The blood drained from Li Yuanshao’s face. His face was as white as a piece of paper. His wrist was suddenly gripped tightly, and the world spun around him as he was pushed onto the bed.

To his surprise, Li Yuan’an suddenly stopped and fainted.

Li Yuanshao was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he pushed Li Yuan’an away and escaped through the window.

When he returned to his place, he took a few deep breaths and heard Yang Jingwen’s concerned voice. “Seventh Prince, what’s wrong?”

Li Yuanshao took two steps back in shock. “Why are you here? I mean, how did you get in?”

“I walked in.” Yang Jingwen looked at the cold sweat on Li Yuanshao’s forehead and was no longer in the mood to tease him. “Seventh Prince, what happened?”

“Li Yuan’an is crazy. He actually…” Li Yuanshao found it hard to continue.

Yang Jingwen saw the anger on Li Yuan’an’s face and understood. Li Yuanshao was so good-looking. It was not surprising that he was liked by men.

After thinking it through, she sized him up and asked anxiously, “Seventh Prince, are you injured?”

Li Yuanshao was stunned. His face turned red as he stammered, “No, he fainted.”

Killing intents rose in Yang Jingwen’s eyes as she said in a deep voice, “I’ll go kill Li Yuan’an.”

Li Yuanshao quickly grabbed Yang Jingwen’s wrist and said nervously, “Chusheng is still in his hands.”

Yang Jingwen frowned. “Then I’ll think of a way to save Cong Chusheng first before killing Li Yuan’an.”

Li Yuanshao thought for a moment and stopped her. “The prison is heavily guarded. You might lose your life if you go alone…”

Seeing that Li Yuanshao was worried that something would happen to her, Yang Jingwen felt happy for some reason. “Then, I’ll go find helpers!”

Surprise flashed across Li Yuanshao’s eyes. He looked at Yang Jingwen and suddenly felt that the girl in front of her was very mysterious. “Do you have helpers?”

Yang Jingwen touched Li Yuanshao’s face and teased, “I’ll tell you in the future. I’ll go make the arrangements.” With that, she left.

Li Yuanshao reached out and touched the place that Yang Jingwen had touched just now, as if he was reminiscing about it.

After traveling for half a day, Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong finally arrived at a village near the Heavenly Snow Mountain at seven o’clock in the evening.

The two of them planned to stay here for the night, but when they walked into the village, they realized that there was no one here. However, from the looks of the village, it did not look like an abandoned village. This made them suspicious.

Chu Qingzhi walked over and pushed open the door of a house. She was stunned. The house was actually a place for forging. “Jinghong…”

Tang Jinghong had already seen it. He was also very surprised. He walked into the room, picked up a saber on the table, and looked at it carefully. Then, his eyes darkened. “This is the saber used by the soldiers!”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Let’s go take a look at the other houses.”

Tang Jinghong nodded.

The two of them checked all the houses in the village. There were more than 50 of them, and they were all forges.

Tang Jinghong felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his heart. Looking at the traces around the house, he could tell that this place had been used for a long time, but there were no finished sabers. It was obvious that the finished ones had been transported elsewhere.

Chu Qingzhi pulled Tang Jinghong to an empty space in the village. “Jinghong, there are countless corpses buried below.”

Tang Jinghong stared at the empty space, his eyes as deep as the night. “Someone killed all the villagers here and turned it into this forging place.”

These people were too ruthless. Chu Qingzhi guessed, “Could it be the Lord of the Northern Border’s doing?”

Tang Jinghong said uncertainly, “The current Lord of the Northern Border seems to only care about money. I can’t figure out his goal yet, but it must be related to him since it happens in the northern border.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong. “Let’s go take a look elsewhere first. Someone should come tomorrow. We’ll ask then.”

Tang Jinghong suppressed his emotions and softened his tone. “Qingzhi, let’s go find some food and rest first.”

He reached out to hold Chu Qingzhi’s hand and walked into the back of the house.

They were in luck. There was a kitchen in the back of the house and fresh vegetables and pork.

Tang Jinghong took out a match and lit the oil lamp. “Qingzhi, help me start the fire later. I’ll make food for you.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Okay.”

Half an hour later, two dishes and a soup were served.

Chu Qingzhi looked at the vegetables that looked good and praised, “Your hands can hold a sword as well as a kitchen knife.”

Tang Jinghong handed the bowl of rice to Chu Qingzhi. Under the orange light, the side of his face looked exceptionally gentle. “It doesn’t taste as good as what you made.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “I think it will definitely be delicious.”

Tang Jinghong sat beside Chu Qingzhi and picked up some food for her. “Try it. If you can accept it, I’ll make it more often in the future.”

In the small kitchen, at the small table, two ordinary-looking young men were eating with smiles on their faces, making the dark and cold night especially cozy.

After the two of them finished eating and were about to pack up, a tired voice suddenly sounded. “There’s no one in this godforsaken place. Why are we asked to patrol here?”

“Be careful, or you’ll lose your head!”

“Hehe, no one will come. Even if someone comes, they won’t be able to return.”

“There’s nothing wrong with being careful!”

“You are too timid. I think you should go back and farm at home.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a white shadow suddenly flashed in front of him.

The two of them immediately tensed up, their hands tightly clenching the corner of their clothes as they stared ahead without blinking…

“Just now…”

At this moment, the white shadow floated past again. This time, it was closer and they could see it more clearly..
