Crossing the Sauvignon Blanc

Chapter 236 Let’s go save Xuan, right?

I don't know how many times I've been so angry today that I've laughed. He and Xuanxuan are really like brothers. Even the way they talk is the same. She asked speechlessly:

"Who told you to die? Who didn't let your sister live? You're not talking about me, are you? It seems that I'm really quite powerful. After visiting Xuanxuan, some people with guilty consciences can't sit still. This is really the biggest joke in the world!"

Xiaoyao's expression was a little strange. Why did they always like to blame others but never look for the reasons in themselves?

Feng Long, however, refused to accept the offer. He coldly demanded, "Don't you want Xinyue's life? Don't you know how important a woman's chastity is to her? Why did you humiliate her like that?"

"Oh, I humiliated her? Wasn't it Tu Shanjing? How can you blame me?"

"But you drugged her!"

"I admit this, but don't put the blame on me for what happened afterwards! Your good sister can send assassins to kill me, so why can't I give her a cup of tea instead? The tea doesn't contain medicine at all, but a demonic energy that can control people, just like the one that's controlling Xuanxuan now. I didn't expect Tu Shanjing to treat Xinyue like that, but I didn't stop him. Why can you kill me for no reason and I can't do anything? Do you really think that this world belongs to you two siblings and everyone has to give in to you?"

Feng Long choked, speechless. The fact was, they were in the wrong first, and Xiao Yao was merciful by not killing them.

"If you have anything else, tell me all of it. You won't have a chance to say it later!"

"What do you want to do?"

Xiaoyao's previous laziness faded. She leaned forward slightly, her slightly raised lips slowly curling up, her eyes becoming menacing and oppressive. She sat up straight again, her body slightly raised, revealing the majesty of an emperor. Her cold gaze fixed directly on Chishui Fenglong, who was actually a little afraid to look at her. He lowered his proud head. Xiaoyao's calm tone made him break out in a cold sweat.

"What do you think? Originally, I had no intention of taking your life, but you seem to be just like in your previous life. For Xinyue, you can abandon all morals and principles. If I keep you, I don't think I can be a good ruler of the world! I shouldn't be soft-hearted and leave disaster for my people! Come on! Nail Chishui Fenglong to the wooden frame! Pull out his skin and tendons! Glue his mouth! Don't let him die, I want him to see it with his own eyes! He made a mistake and should bear the consequences himself!"

Xiaoyao said as she gathered her spiritual power and slapped his dantian. With a crisp sound, Fenglong's dantian shattered. Blood flowed out of his mouth. He panicked and wanted to beg for mercy.

"Princess Emperor, please let Xinyue go. This was all my idea. She didn't do anything. Please let her go! You can torture me however you want!"

"Unfortunately...I don't believe it!"

Xiaoyao's eyes were icy. In the past, she could tolerate it, but now, as an emperor, anyone who threatened the safety of her people should not be allowed to live! Today was the first time she called herself "Zhen". It represented an attitude, and no one dared to disobey the decision of an emperor!

Even my grandfather and Xuanxuan compromised for the sake of the people. In his previous life, my father also compromised for the sake of the people. Who the hell is he, Chishui Fenglong, to be so worthy of giving orders?

"Ruishou! Rest for three days, then march to Xiyan! Let's see if Xuanxuan can be saved! We're going to rescue him, right?"

"Your Majesty is right!"

"Well, take Feng Long with you and put him at the front of the march. Those who surrender will not be killed!"

Xiaoyao thought for a moment and handed a magical medicine to Rushou.

"Fenglong ate it and kept him alive. He can't die now."

Qingshui Town

After a few days of busy work, the rebel army returned to Qingshui Town and rebuilt houses bit by bit. Bai Xue transported a lot of daily necessities from other places. Xiling Heng and the doctors he brought were busy treating patients. Fortunately, there were enough medicinal materials and there were not too many casualties. Only some elderly people were seriously injured when they were washed away by the flood and could not be saved.

Lao Mu is very glad about the current result. At least everyone is still here. It doesn’t matter if the house is gone or the money is gone, as long as people are alive.

Seeing that Hong Jiang was still busy, Xiang Yao squeezed the communication spirit bead in his hand. After receiving the news from Rushou, he planned to go to the battlefield to take a look. Xiao Yao seemed to see his thoughts and asked him to go there in three days. Xiao Yao was not sure how the strength of Tushan Patriarch had recovered. She was the emperor and could not take risks. With Xiang Yao there, Xiao Yao would feel much more at ease.

"Godfather, have you ever thought about letting everyone go out for a walk?"

Xiang Yao’s meaning was very clear. The rebels wanted to live a normal life, and he now had the confidence to protect them.

"Yao'er, I understand what you mean. If they are willing, let them join Hao Ling. That girl will unify the world sooner or later. She also promised to allocate a piece of land to the rebels. But if everything is unified, the existence of the rebels will become an alien force. For you, it may not be a good thing."

"Godfather, how could you think that? Xiaoyao will be very angry."

"Yes, Grandpa Hong, Mother said that the rebels are the group of people she respects the most. Every one of them deserves respect. They are heroes. No matter what choice you make, Mother will support you."

Xiang Ze's childish voice sounded, and no one knew where this naughty boy came from. Hong Jiang happily picked him up and asked cheerfully:

"Haha, Xiao Yueyue is so young, what do you know?"

"Mother said, 'Since ancient times, everyone has to die.' Let us leave behind a loyal heart that will shine through history. Everyone has to die, some heavier than Mount Tai, some lighter than a feather. Mother said that in previous lives, Uncle Xiangyao and many uncles died, but their spirits will always live in our hearts, inspiring us. No matter what difficulties we face, we should never give up. There's nothing wrong with loving our country, and there's nothing wrong with fighting for our country until the very end. You may seem to have done nothing, but you've done everything. Aunt Xiaoyao will make arrangements for you, don't worry. If she dares to let you down, my mother will spank her!"

"Hahahaha, your mother is really amazing."

"That's right! But why hasn't Mother come out yet? I miss her so much. Is Daddy's injury still not healed? Uncle Xiang Yao, can you go see them?"

Aizawa's originally smug expression turned depressed. He had never been away from his mother for so long.

Xiang Yao shook his head helplessly. He stayed because he also wanted to know what happened to Xiang Liu and Yan Mo.

"It's okay, I believe Mom and Dad will be fine. I'm going to play with my sister."

Xiang Ze pretended not to care, put on a smile, waved goodbye to Hong Jiang Xiang Yao, turned around and ran away quickly.

Seeing Xiangze running away, Hong Jiang then asked Xiang Yao: "Did something happen to Xiang Liu? Tell me the truth."

"Xiang Liu... lost his life, his dragon body was severed..."

"How could this happen? That Mo girl..."

Hong Jiang knew how much Yan Mo treasured Xiang Liu, so he must be going crazy...

"This time, someone used an ancient formation, using human sacrifices. Once activated, unless the formation's spiritual power is exhausted, there's no other way except to break it forcefully. We discovered it too late. A vortex had already formed in the center of the formation. Xiangliu must have forcefully rushed into the vortex to break the formation, and then used his body to block the vortex. When we found him, there was not a single piece of good flesh left on his body, and he was only breathing his last."

"I am sorry for you. They want to kill the righteous army. You have protected us for two lifetimes. It is your foster father who is ashamed of you..."

Hong Jiang burst into tears, his heart aching. For the sake of his inner perseverance, he let the children charge forward. How could he face these foolish children?

Xiang Yao quickly helped Hong Jiang up as he was about to kneel down. How could a father kneel down to his son?

"Foster father, Xiangliu and the others are not only doing this for the righteous army, but also for the people. Even if the righteous army and foster father are not here, even if they appear anywhere else, I believe they will still choose to do this. Foster father, don't blame yourself. They are indeed stupid. Isn't foster father stupid too? They are all a bunch of fools..."

Xiang Yao teased and smiled at Hong Jiang, with stars twinkling in his eyes.

Hong Jiang turned his head, wiped his tears, smiled and pushed Xiang Yao away, muttering: "I can't argue with you, I can't argue with you..."
