Hearing the name Red Lotus Empire, Jiu Xuan could not help but squint his eyes at the soldier who came to deliver the letter. He said coldly," Did you just say the Red Lotus Empire?"”The soldier raised his head to look at Jiu Xuan and realized that it was an unfamiliar face he had never seen before. For a moment, he hesitated whether to tell him. Just as he was hesitating, Nangong Zhuo said," He's not an outsider. Just say whatever you have to say. Remember not to hide anything."”
As he spoke, Nangong Zhuo squatted in front of the soldier and put his hands on his shoulders. He shook the soldier's body hard as if he couldn't believe what he said. Seeing Nangong Zhuo like this, Jiu Xuan walked to his side and patted his shoulder. He said softly," Big Brother is fine. Didn't you give me the Universal Eight Trigrams Plate? Let me go to the battlefield and I will definitely take back the lost city."”
Jiu Xuan's words warmed Nangong Zhuo's heart. He stood up and shook his head at Jiu Xuan." Second brother, things are not as simple as you think. The strength of our Zhonghua Empire and the Red Lotus Empire has always been on par. He must have a surprise attack to be able to take away three of our cities this time. Even if you go to the battlefield, it might not be of any use.”
Ru Mochen sighed in his heart, This Ninth Princess is surprisingly reasonable. I wonder if the two of them can still be together after this change.”Nangong Zhuo looked at Nangong Mengdie and then at Jiu Xuan. He sighed and said," Second brother, Mengdie makes sense. The battlefield is much more complicated than you think. There are many changes on the battlefield. Anything can happen. Although you have the Universal Eight Trigrams Tablet, if something happens, I'm afraid it will be a life-threatening situation. If that happens, how will your brother be able to live in the future?"”
Jiu Xuan looked at Nangong Zhuo and then at Nangong Mengdie. He smiled and said," I appreciate your kindness, but it's precisely because we're brothers that I have to help you, isn't it?" Furthermore, there was some conflict between me and the Red Lotus Empire previously. This time, I've taken my revenge on the battlefield. I hope Big Brother will grant my wish.”As he spoke, he saw Jiu Xuan cupped his hands towards Nangong Zhuo. Seeing this scene, Nangong Zhuo could not help but sigh.
Before Nangong Zhuo could speak, Nangong Mengdie spoke first,"Brother Jiuxuan, why are you so stupid? You must know that the war between the two countries cannot be changed by one person."”Jiu Xuan did not dare to look at Nangong Mengdie's teary eyes. He looked up at the starry sky and sighed," Ever since the day the Zi Wei Star fell, my world has undergone earth-shattering changes. Revenge has always been my wish, but I cannot be blinded by hatred. This battle with the Red Lotus Empire might not be an opportunity for me. Perhaps I can use this to get rid of my obsession and break through to a higher realm in the future.”
After hearing Jiu Xuan's words, everyone fell silent. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little oppressive. Just as Nangong Zhuo was thinking about how to reply to him, he saw Ru Mochen walk to Jiu Xuan's side and pat his shoulder." Sever your obsession. Second brother is indeed ambitious."”After saying that, Ru Mochen smiled at Nangong Zhuo and said,"Big brother, you should be able to get that Universal Eight Trigrams Tablet, right?"”
Seeing Ru Mochen like this, Nangong Zhuo sighed and said helplessly,"You guys."”Without waiting for him to finish, Ru Mochen waved his hand and said first," Alright, big brother, don't say anything else. Remember to get me a Qiankun Eight Trigrams tablet. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be tortured to death by the military aura before I even enter the battlefield."”Hearing his joke, Nangong Zhuo couldn't help but laugh out loud. He looked at Ru Mochen and shook his head. Everything was said without words.
"How can you treat this as a joke? Do you think you can face the people who care about you?" Nangong Mengdie asked anxiously.”As she spoke, she stared at Jiu Xuan with red eyes. Seeing her like this, Jiu Xuan stroked her head with heartache. This touch made both of their bodies tremble at the same time, as if they had been electrocuted.
Jiu Xuan looked at his palm that was still on Nangong Mengdie's head and thought to himself," This subconscious action is killing me. How can people say that they are golden branches and jade leaves? This action of mine is humiliating their innocence."”However, Nangong Mengdie didn't seem to think too much about it. She just stared blankly at Jiu Xuan and started crying. Seeing her cry, Jiu Xuan said helplessly," Ninth Princess, don't cry. It was my fault just now. I was rude."”
Nangong Mengdie felt her mind go blank. Listening to Jiu Xuan's heartbeat, she knew that this wasn't a dream. Thinking about how she was being hugged by someone she just met, Nangong Mengdie subconsciously wanted to break free, but for some reason, she felt that this feeling was what she had been pursuing, and she couldn't bear to let go.
Jiu Xuan pointed at himself and said with some doubt,"Me?" Take responsibility?" Seeing him like this, Nangong Mengdie stomped her feet and said angrily," You hugged and touched me, yet you don't want to take responsibility. I didn't expect you to be such a person."”Jiu Xuan's face was covered in cold sweat as he thought about how he had indeed hugged her and touched her head. He said with some guilt," What do you want, Ninth Princess?"”Nangong Mengdie gritted her teeth in hatred when she saw his expression.
At this moment, Nangong Zhuo walked over and gently patted Jiu Xuan's head. He pretended to be angry and said," You stinky brat, you actually asked what happened? What else can happen? The two of you get married. Don't tell me you don't want to take responsibility and get married."”Jiu Xuan looked at Nangong Zhuo and then at Nangong Mengdie. After bowing to Nangong Mengdie, he said,"As long as the ninth princess doesn't mind my humble background, I'm willing to take responsibility."”
Before Nangong Zhuo could finish speaking, Nangong Mengdie walked over and pushed him away. She first looked at Jiu Xuan affectionately and then said,"Don't go to the battlefield, okay?"”Jiu Xuan stroked her head and laughed." Since I want to be your husband, how can I watch your country fall and your family perish?"”Nangong Mengdie shook her head and said," No, it doesn't matter. They can't attack the Imperial City. Not to mention the fact that there is a guardian god in the Imperial City, the Emperor has also set a rule that countries can't attack the Imperial City."”
Hearing Nangong Mengdie's words, Jiu Xuan looked at Nangong Zhuo with some doubt and asked,"Big brother, what is a guardian god?"”Hearing Jiu Xuan's question, Nangong Zhuo seemed to have sunk into his memories. He looked at Nangong Mengdie and then at Jiu Xuan. He sighed and said," Since you want to know, then listen to me slowly. I only know a part of the matter of the guardian god."”
