You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

Chapter 316: Calming the Mind! Beiyang Pass

Lin Zhaoyue arrived at Beiyangguan at noon on the fourth day, eight hours earlier than expected.

A battle had just ended at Beiyang Pass, and the entire sky was filled with thick smoke. As soon as I arrived at Neiguankou, I could smell a strong smell of burnt smoke.

When the carriage arrived at the gate, it was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.

"There is a war outside the pass now. Who are you? Why are you entering the city at this moment?"

a soldier asked loudly.

Now is the critical moment. Whether inside or outside the city, we must guard it strictly to prevent spies from the Northern Jue people from sneaking in.

Lin Zhaoyue lifted the car curtain.

They saw four soldiers standing at the checkpoint, each holding a long knife, fully alert, and looking at them vigilantly.

Lin Zhaoyue looked at them and felt that they looked familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere.

Before she could react, the vigilance in the eyes of two soldiers immediately turned into surprise. They put down their long swords and walked towards her, saying:

"Miss Lin Er, you are finally back! Go tell Miss Ding."

Someone came in to report. After the person who just spoke finished speaking, he turned to look at Lin Zhaoyue and said solemnly:

"Hello, Miss Lin Er, I am Yang Hao, the captain of the seventh team of the Flying Eagle Team!"

The Flying Eagle Team has a total of one hundred people, divided into ten teams, each team has ten people, and each team has a team leader.

They are under Ding Dong's charge, and now they are assigned here to guard the city. I guess it must be the arrangement of the master.

The captain of the team had the most contact with Ding Dong, and he should have known that Ning Xi was her master. Lin Zhaoyue said:

"It's Captain Yang. How's my master?" Lin Zhaoyue asked puzzledly.

"Shen Ning is commanding on the city wall. Miss Ding is beside Shen Ning. I'll have someone take you there."

Lin Zhaoyue nodded, and Yang Hao waved his hand to call a soldier and asked the soldier to take Lin Zhaoyue over.

When Ding Dong heard the soldier's report, he knew that Lin Zhaoyue was coming, so he hurried to tell Ning Xi happily.

Ning Xi stood on the city wall holding a spear.

Hearing the news that Lin Zhaoyue was coming, he frowned and said:

"Bring her here."

"Yes, aunt."

Ding Dong responded and quickly ran down the stone stairs.

Inside the pass, it was a mess.

Having just resisted the eighth attack from the Northern Jue people, supplies inside the pass were rapidly consumed.

If Shen Yanzhou had not brought half of the supplies that Xiao Yun had prepared along the coast to provide support in time, they would probably have been unable to withstand the eighth attack by the Northern Jue people.

The pungent smell of burning and blood filled the entire Beiyang Pass, and wounded people were carried away on stretchers everywhere.

The soldiers and some civilians who stayed behind are quickly replacing, maintaining and replenishing combat equipment and supplies.

"girl."

Lin Zhaoyue heard the voice, turned around, and saw Ding Dong running towards her from a distance.

"Girl, I'm so glad you're okay! Where did you go? We couldn't find you no matter how hard we looked."

"Let's talk about it when we meet Master later. Where is Master?"

"My aunt is over there on the city wall. Let me take the girl over there."

When they arrived at the foot of the city wall, Lin Zhaoyue saw Ning Xi, dressed in silver armor, from a distance.

She looked from top to bottom, and unlike the relaxed and lazy look she had on Aurora Island, now her eyes were sharp and her face was full of determination and coldness.

The silver armor on her body had long been stained red with blood. After wearing the silver armor, her originally thin figure did not look bloated, but taller. She held a spear in her hand, and her whole body was full of power.

Her long hair was combed into a high ponytail. Behind her was a black flag representing the An Kingdom. When the wind blew, her hair and the flag fluttered with them. Her delicate and beautiful face under the flag had a firm and majestic beauty that was inviolable.

Next to her was Shen Yanzhou, who always seemed cynical. But now that he was next to Ning Xi, his aura was much weaker.

"Master! Master!"

Lin Zhaoyue waved at her. Ning Xi saw it but did not respond. She just looked at her with cold eyes.

Meeting Ning Xi's eyes, Lin Zhaoyue felt a little guilty, so she had to pretend not to see it and quickly climbed up the city wall. Once she got to the top, she gave Ning Xi a big hug.

"Master, I miss you so much!"

Ning Xi remained unmoved and her tone remained cold.

"This trick doesn't work for me."

Lin Zhaoyue pretended to be hurt and said:

"Master didn't even miss Zhao Zhao. You don't know that Zhao Zhao almost died. Zhao Zhao thought he would never see Master again. He was blown to the desert by a tornado. He had nothing to eat or drink."

It is true that I almost died, and more than once.

"Zhao Zhao is still alive now, isn't Master happy?"

Ning Xi's eyes were already a little red.

She was happy that Lin Zhaoyue was okay, but she was more worried about her safety.

Beiyang Pass is now at war with Beijue. The battlefield is ruthless and one may lose his life if he is not careful.

No one knows what fate this child has. Some say she has a bad fate. She was born in a Duke's mansion, and has lived a life of luxury since childhood, being the center of everyone's love.

People say she has a good life, but she is always hurt and suffers so much. Moreover, her suffering comes from her son.

Hiding her inner guilt and self-blame, Ning Xi said with a straight face:

"If you're not going back to the coast, what are you doing here?"

"My father is still in Lin Yanzhi's hands, and my master is here too. If I don't come here, where else can I go? Besides, I have studied with my master for two years, so I can help."

Ning Xi heard this and said:

"How can you help? Just don't cause trouble for me. This is a battlefield, not a place for children to play house. After you have eaten, I will have someone send you to the coast to reunite with your mother. As for your father, I will find a way to rescue him."

"I know Master is worried about me, but I won't go back. I can fight and save people. Master, you don't have to worry about me. I will take good care of myself."

As the two were talking, Shen Yanzhou said:

"Calm down, the incense stick of time is up, and the generals should be waiting in the main tent."

Ning Xi let go of Lin Zhaoyue and just said:

"Don't make trouble here. Go back after dinner. Ding Dong, take her to eat."

Shen Yanzhou nodded at her, said a simple hello, and followed Ning Xi away.

Although he was very curious about why Lin Zhaoyue became Ning Shen's disciple and the relationship between Ning Shen and Xiao Yan, now was the most important thing.

The firepower of the Beijue people was much more ferocious than they had imagined. If they continued fighting like this, they didn't know if they could hold out for a month.

They needed to discuss many things, including planning how to deal with the next attack by the Northern Jue people and how to use the current 110,000 troops to resist the Northern Jue people's million-strong army.

Ning Xi had just taken two steps when she heard Lin Zhaoyue behind her say:

"Master, he is safe."

Ning Xi paused for a moment, then continued walking with an expressionless face.

Ning Xi was the leader, followed by Shen Yanzhou, and behind them were several generals that Lin Zhaoyue had seen before but could not remember their names.
