Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This time, Xiao Yang was even more determined to help his cousin and cousin-in-law keep the secret.

F * ck! An immortal! No wonder she’s so smart and capable!

With her here, wouldn’t the soldiers be able to escape safely?

Suddenly, Xiao Yang looked at Li Xiao, who was walking in front of him again, and he looked a little jealous.

He’s too lucky!

He actually met an immortal who took a fancy to him…

It was so unfair. He was much better looking than his cousin!

Alright then…perhaps when he returned, he could ask his immortal cousin-in-law if she could introduce him to a beautiful immortal.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yang’s face instantly lit up.

He gave a silly smile and chased after Li Xiao.

In the snow-covered ground, the snow was falling like goose feathers.

The two of them moved quickly in the snow. At first, Xiao Yang was still chattering with Li Xiao, but soon he shut his mouth and his expression became serious.

Because the two of them were already slowly approaching the encampment of the border guards.

Hiding behind a snowy hill, the two of them exchanged hand signs.

Then, after the patrolling soldiers left, they quickly moved and sneaked into the camp.

After moving stealthily and bypassing several groups of patrolling soldiers, the two of them finally entered the Nangong Army’s encampment.

In the end, Xiao Yang was discovered just after passing by three groups of patrolling soldiers.

Seeing that the person who discovered him and surrounded him with his soldiers was actually his most capable subordinate, Xiao Yang was a little angry.

Before his subordinate could shout, he quickly took off his face cloth.

“It’s me, stop shouting?!” Then, he walked over and kicked the subordinate.

Of course, he didn’t use much strength. It was just the usual greeting method that everyone was used to.

The subordinate was shocked, and then his face lit up with joy.

Then, he dodged a little and avoided some of Xiao Yang’s attacks.

“Boss! Boss, you’re back!” He immediately rushed up and gave Xiao Yang a big bear hug.

Although Xiao Yang looked disgusted, he didn’t avoid him.

“Old Liu from the nearby station spread rumors that you abandoned your brothers and ran away. 1 never believed it! W00…I really didn’t follow the wrong leader!” He was actually on the verge of tears at this moment.

Xiao Yang’s heart skipped a beat as he pushed the crying man away with a look of disgust.

“Look at you, crying like a girl.”

“Don’t listen to Old Liu’s bull**! 1 am a member of the Nangong Army in life and death! Even if he, Old Liu, was chopped up and buried in the ground, 1 would not abandon my brothers!” Xiao Yang said firmly.

Old Liu, the new Great General of the Imperial Court’s army, was Liu Renyi’s nickname.

Liu Renyi was previously a subordinate of the Great General. He rarely led troops to battle, but he was good at defending.

After the death of the Great General, the Imperial Court allowed Liu Renyi to take over the position of the Great General.

As the Nangong Army was dissatisfied with him, they all called him Old Liu.

After Xiao Yang left the Nangong Army’s encampment, Liu Renyi soon received the news.

In order to shake the morale of the Nangong Army, Liu Renyi had spread the news that Xiao Yang had defected, hoping that the Nangong Army would take the initiative to surrender to the Imperial Court.

Only then would he be able to complete Emperor Yan’s mission and subdue the Nangong Army as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, although the news of Xiao Yang’s departure had caused some unrest, not a single one of them had truly joined the Imperial Court’s army.

This iron-blooded army left behind by the Great General King still firmly defended the encampment despite the harsh conditions,

“Yes! Boss is right! We’re like you, we’re the Nangong Army’s soldiers in life and death!”

“We are the people of the Nangong Army in life and death!” Immediately, a few soldiers at the side followed suit.

Xiao Yang’s gaze swept across the soldiers’ faces.

These people all had different degrees of frostbite on their faces.

The clothes under their armor looked very thin, but their eyes were determined.

Just as his uncle had once said, the eyes of the men of the Nangong Army were sharp like swords. Once the swords were unsheathed, they could cut one’s throat.

Xiao Yang stretched out his hand and patted his subordinate’s arm.

He lowered his voice and said, “go inform Deputy General Wang, Mr. Xu, and the chiliarchs of the various battalions to come to the main tent. Tell them that 1 have something to tell them..”
