Chapter 42

But that was in the past. Now, he truly wanted to live properly.

He had not yet seen her in person, nor had he expressed his feelings to her. There were still many things he wished to do.

This time, he did not want to just let things happen naturally and live life aimlessly.

His fate should not be controlled by the so-called Emperor. He needed to fight for himself.

Feng Qingyi watched the pensive Qin Yuchuan, unsure of what he was thinking about again.

Several times, their conversation would trail off as he fell silent.

"Qingyi, even if it's just to help you earn points, I will live properly."

He still hoped to meet her using the items from the mysterious store.

Feng Qingyi: "When you go out, bring a few more guards with you. Don't try to be so strong on your own."

Being strong on his own - this was the first time someone had said that to him. Perhaps in her eyes, he was just an ordinary person.

Only she would regard him as an ordinary person.

"Alright, I'll take care of myself. You do the same."

Feng Qingyi placed her phone on the stand. "I've been studying for so many years and haven't encountered any danger. You should worry about yourself instead!"

After learning that Qin Yuchuan was not seriously harmed, Feng Qingyi relaxed.

"Regardless, remember to protect yourself."

Although Feng Qingyi felt that Qin Yuchuan was being a bit fussy, she still appreciated his concern.

"Okay, I know. I'm almost done with my martial arts entrance course."

"Although I can't fly and teleport like you, in our world, I should be able to protect myself."

Qin Yuchuan smiled faintly at Feng Qingyi. "That's impressive."

This was the first time Feng Qingyi had seen Qin Yuchuan smile at her. She was instantly captivated by his refreshing smile.

This was much more alluring than Shen Hanyue chasing after those shirtless guys.

"Um, you should rest well. I'm going to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities."

Qin Yuchuan nodded. "Yeah, go ahead!"

"Bye then!" Feng Qingyi quickly hung up the phone. She felt like she was barely holding it together. Who could withstand that?

Qin Yuchuan was a bit puzzled. Was she scared? Did he smile in a terrifying way?

When she was staring at him, it seemed like she was blushing.

Perhaps she was just shy. Teasing a young girl is really quite interesting.

At the Tianqi Imperial Palace, in the Changle Palace.

The favored Imperial Noble Yan, Murong Yan, was conversing with a man in black attire in a secret passage of the Changle Palace.

"How are things proceeding?" Murong Yan asked.

The man in black knelt on the ground. "My apologies, Your Highness. Qin Yuchuan is highly skilled in martial arts. Our people suffered heavy losses!"

"What? You had nearly a hundred men against the three of them, yet you still let them return alive? You're all useless!"

If she did not quickly eliminate Qin Yuchuan, all her plans would fall apart.

Xuanyuan Sheng currently had no intention of reclaiming military power. If Qin Yuchuan discovered anything, their plans would be ruined.

The most secure method now was to get rid of him!

No wonder he was known as the War God of Tianqi. Their hundred elite fighters were unable to take his life.

"Your Highness, Qin Yuchuan's strength cannot be underestimated. Please instruct us further," the man in black said.

Murong Yan pondered for a while. "Since we failed this time, he will undoubtedly be on guard. Sending more people now would be walking into a trap. For the time being, keep a low profile and ensure no one discovers your existence. I will make other arrangements through Xuanyuan Sheng."

"Your Highness, please be careful." The man in black departed through the secret passage.

Murong Yan then returned to her bedchamber.

She had not been there long when Xuanyuan Sheng arrived.

These days, Xuanyuan Sheng had been staying in her bedchamber every night. Murong Yan had a plan in mind.

Xuanyuan Sheng was still without an heir. If she gave birth to a prince, everything would be within her grasp.

However, the time required for pregnancy was too long. She feared they would not have enough time.

"What has my beloved Yan been thinking about? I'm here, yet you did not react?" Xuanyuan Sheng embraced Murong Yan's slender waist.

Murong Yan smiled radiantly at Xuanyuan Sheng.

"Your Majesty, I was thinking that your birthday is coming soon. What gift should I prepare for you?"

"Oh, a gift? How about you bear me a prince?" Xuanyuan Sheng said, half-jokingly.

Murong Yan had been by Xuanyuan Sheng's side for a long time and understood his intentions very well.

"I am but a commoner. Being able to accompany Your Majesty is already a great blessing. I dare not desire anything more."

Seeing the tenderness in the woman's eyes, Xuanyuan Sheng's tone softened.

"You need not be so self-effacing. In my heart, you are already my Empress. If you bear me a son, I shall officially name you as such."

Upon hearing his words, Murong Yan wrapped her arms around his neck.

Within the bedchamber, the man's heavy breathing and the woman's melodious cries lingered long into the night.

At the General's Mansion, Yan Chi and Yan Yang had awakened. After the previous day's battle, both had sustained severe injuries and could barely leave their beds.

Na Muqi, upon learning of the three's injuries, came to pay them a visit.

Na Muqi met with Qin Yuchuan in the study room. Since returning to Shengjing, the two had not seen each other for many days.

"General, how are your injuries? Have you been able to identify who sent the assassins yesterday?"

Qin Yuchuan knew Na Muqi had come to inquire about his well-being.

"I am unharmed. As for the assassins, their martial arts skills seemed unusual, not like those of our countrymen. I have already sent people to investigate, but there are no leads yet."

Na Muqi knew of Qin Yuchuan's formidable martial arts prowess, which was precisely why he was more concerned.

"Since they were targeting you, General, they will not give up easily. You must exercise extreme caution in the coming days."

Qin Yuchuan had his own thoughts on the matter. This time, the enemy seemed to have gone all out, intending to kill him.

Although he was injured last night, the enemy suffered even greater losses. They would not likely strike again so soon.

Now, he needed to quickly uncover the identities of these people. He had a feeling that the person behind this was playing a big game.

And in this game, he was not meant to exist, or perhaps his existence was an obstacle for them. 𝓯𝓇𝘦𝘦𝑤ℯ𝓫𝑛𝓸𝑣𝓮𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓶

But what did he possess that they needed to fear? The only answer he could think of was military power.

"After yesterday's battle, they suffered heavy losses. Now they should be resting and recovering. Na Muqi, dispatch a squad to secretly investigate."

Na Muqi acknowledged, "General, rest assured, I'll take care of it immediately!"

Watching Na Muqi's departing figure, Qin Yuchuan leaned back in his chair.

He didn't wish to be entangled in the turmoil of Shengjing, but now that he was in the midst of it, they clearly had no intention of letting him go.

Since that was the case, why should he continue to avoid it? From a young age, he had never feared such storms and upheavals.
