The royal army of Long Tianliu was now completely terrified of the "Asura War God."
Everyone heard his name and was already trembling and weak-kneed before the battle even began.
If this situation continued, her army would surely be defeated.
However, if Feng Yexuan were to leave the Longteng Kingdom and withdraw from this war entirely, their chances of victory would greatly increase.
Long Tianliu pondered for a moment and indeed felt that this was a good thing!
A brilliant plan.
However, she was already very wary of Yu Linglong.
"What exactly do you want?"
"As I said, I just want to return to the Prince's side as soon as possible."
Yu Linglong always wore a smile, a harmless smile.
Only her slightly too sharp eyes always made people unable to let down their guard.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "Alright, Your Majesty, I actually do have a request, but I don't know if Your Majesty is willing to help."
"Tell me first," Long Tianliu naturally couldn't agree immediately.
A promise is a promise, and once made, it cannot be taken back.
Promises are not to be given lightly.
Yu Linglong didn't mind and calmly stated her wish: "I want Chu Qianli dead."
Long Tianliu fell silent.
Yu Linglong added, "I know Chu Qianli is Long Xiyue's daughter, and now, perhaps everyone knows."
"Your Majesty, I am also afraid that after you capture her, you will be hesitant to kill her due to her identity."
"It's good that you know," Long Tianliu snorted.
Since Chu Qianli was Long Xiyue's daughter, even if she captured Chu Qianli, she couldn't openly kill her.
This would inevitably arouse suspicion among the entire populace.
Even if she were imprisoned for life, at least the people would know that she, as Empress, was not a devil who would kill her own relatives.
A ruler must win the hearts of the people.
"Therefore, I hope Your Majesty can directly execute Chu Qianli on the battlefield."
Seeing Long Tianliu's slightly changed expression, Yu Linglong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, on the battlefield, swords have no eyes. If Chu Qianli dies in battle, no one will know who killed her, and the truth will not be revealed."
"Your Majesty only needs to kill her on the battlefield, and all your troubles will be over."
Seeing Long Tianliu remain silent, Yu Linglong added, "Your Majesty may not know, but Chu Qianli is a cunning and treacherous person. As long as she is alive, she can counterattack at any time!"
"Killing her not only alleviates my unease but also removes a great threat for Your Majesty. Your Majesty, why are you unwilling?"
Long Tianliu remained silent.
On the battlefield, swords have no eyes...
After an unknown amount of time, Long Tianliu looked deeply at Yu Linglong and said, "Alright, I will listen to you."
She waved her hand, her voice becoming much gentler: "Changming, immediately order rooms to be prepared and escort Miss Yu and this young master to rest. I will now order someone to draft a state letter and send it to the King of Fusang."
A flicker of something passed through Changming's eyes, his gaze somewhat complex.
But he quickly reacted and bowed, "Yes!"
Then, he walked up to Yu Linglong and respectfully said, "Miss, your subordinate will escort you to rest first. If there is any news from the King of Fusang, your subordinate will notify you immediately."
"Then I shall gratefully accept."
Yu Linglong followed Changming out of the great hall.
A while later, Changming quickly returned and whispered, "Your Majesty, your subordinate has arranged for them to rest, but... Your Majesty, why didn't you just kill them?"
The message had been delivered, and this young lady named Yu Linglong had no further value.
If Your Majesty wanted to kill Chu Qianli, keeping Yu Linglong in this world might lead her to spread rumors and damage Your Majesty's reputation.
"This matter cannot be rushed. The expert by her side is a divine swordsman. To fight him head-on would cost us many of our own experts."
"Your Majesty means..." Changming looked at her, finally understanding.
He lowered his voice, "Your subordinate receives your command!"
If they couldn't win through a direct confrontation, they would use strategy.
Since they were in the palace, they would have opportunities to strike.
However, not long after, Long Tianliu received news: Yu Linglong and the young master had left.
In the blink of an eye, they had vanished without a trace, and it was impossible to find them.
Not only was the man's martial arts formidable, but his Qinggong was also superb!
Long Tianliu gritted her teeth in anger. This Yu Linglong was indeed deeply cunning and prescient!
However, she only wanted to use her to get rid of Chu Qianli!
But Long Tianliu had already decided that Chu Qianli must be eliminated.
Now, the most important thing was to make Feng Yexuan leave the Longteng Kingdom as soon as possible.
As long as this god of death was "invited" away, her Dragon City would have a chance to survive!
...
That night, Long Ziyue indeed received news from Wei Qiong.
"Long Tianliu is going to join forces with the King of Fusang to help the Ruoyi tribe attack Yitie City?"
Chu Qianli looked at Long Ziyue, then couldn't help but glance at Feng Yexuan, who was sitting beside them.
Although Feng Yexuan was still wearing a mask, his eyes held a hint of solemnity.
"Ziyue, is this news true?"
"It's news sent by General Wei's people inside the palace. They also said that a man and a woman arrived at the palace today."
"A man and a woman?"
"They said they were from the Beiming Kingdom."
"It must be Yu Linglong." Chu Qianli turned her head and looked at Feng Yexuan, her eyes also showing a hint of solemnity.
"Yu Linglong knows you too well. Jin Rui can deceive ordinary soldiers, but he absolutely cannot deceive her."
Moreover, with such a rare opportunity to march with Feng Yexuan, how could Yu Linglong give up on any possibility of getting close to him?
As long as the desire to get close was strong and the attempts to probe were frequent, she would eventually discover that Feng Yexuan was not in the military camp at all.
"It must have been Yu Linglong who told Long Tianliu that you were with my army. Long Tianliu, in order to force you to leave, resorted to attacking Yitie City."
This news was definitely deliberately spread to them by Long Tianliu.
But whether it was intentional or unintentional, as long as Feng Yexuan did not return to Yitie City, the King of Fusang would definitely send troops, and even Long Tianliu would at least send an army to attack the city.
At that time, facing enemies on all sides, Jin Rui, who had no combat experience, would not be able to withstand it!
Seeing their expressions, Long Ziyue's mood also became heavy.
"In other words, regardless of how this news was obtained, the news itself is true?"
"It must be true. She's just telling us in advance so that Yexuan can leave early. This way, the pressure on her royal army can be released in advance."
They had completely fallen into a dead end.
No matter what, Feng Yexuan had to rush back.
As the War God Prince of Beiming, he could not abandon his brothers, nor could he gamble with the lives of all the people in Yitie City.
This time, he had no choice but to leave!
