The postponement of Furongand Bi Cang Wang Shen Li's wedding was just one of the many things that came out of the Wang family. It was only a joke for the idle people in the Immortal Realm world and the heavenly world. But on the tenth day after their wedding was postponed, a blood letter sent back from the border shocked the Immortal Realm world and made the Immortal Realm world panic.
The seal of Xutianyuan was broken, and the monsters escaped. Although there was only one scorpion-tailed fox that had not yet transformed, it had caused serious damage to the border guards.
General Zixia, who was sent by the Immortal Realm king, tried his best to send back the blood letter, but died behind his mount before entering the palace.
General Mofang defended the border and refused to let the monsters trample on the land of the Immortal Realm world again. The military situation was urgent and could not be delayed. After the Immortal Realm king received the news, one side ordered a grand funeral for General Zixia, and the other side sent someone to notify the heavenly world.
At that time, Shen Li was in the meeting hall. Hearing the news, he slammed the table and said angrily: "Why do we have to notify the heaven? By the time those rubbish come up with the result, I don't know how many soldiers of my Immortal Realm world will have been injured! Immortal Realm Lord, Shen Li requests to go to the battle!"
The Immortal Realm Lord remained silent.
At this time, there were three veterans in the court sitting in the meeting hall. After weighing the pros and cons, the white-haired elder spoke up: "Your Majesty, there are many generals in the court who are good at fighting, but when it comes to dealing with such monsters, no one has more experience than the young prince.
I know that your majesty is worried about the young prince's current status as a bride, but in an emergency, please understand the soldiers who are guarding the border of our tribe with their lives."
The Immortal Realm Lord tapped the table with his index finger and turned his head: "Shen Li."
Shen Li immediately knelt on one knee and bowed: "Here."
"You are not allowed to leave your palace for a month." Shen Li looked up at him in disbelief. The three veterans looked at each other, but they all fell silent. Shen Li was unwilling: "Immortal Realm Lord! The border..."
"There is a chaos at the border. Send General Shangbei to investigate. If possible, do not kill the monsters. Delay until the heaven sends people..."
"Heaven, heaven! Does the Immortal Realm Lord really want to be a puppet of heaven?" Shen Li was furious. He ignored etiquette, stood up, slammed the door and left.
There was a moment of silence in the meeting hall, and suddenly the Immortal Realm Lord asked, "Do the three generals think that I really did something wrong?"
"Your Majesty has your own concerns and plans." One of the old generals sighed, "The young prince is young and cannot understand your good intentions, but please be at ease, one day the young prince will know."
"Yes." The eyes behind the Immortal Realm Lord's mask closed tiredly, "One day he will know."
General Zixia's coffin had not been sealed yet. When Shen Li went there, she saw that his face was covered with blue lines and his fingertips were black. The medical officer said that he was stung by the poisonous tail of the scorpion-tailed fox. With Zixia's skills, it would not be fatal, but in order to bring back the news, he did not rest after the injury, and rushed back to the Immortal Realm Palace without stopping, causing the poison to attack his heart, which killed him.
Shen Li could only hear silently gritting her teeth.
The news that her brother brought back at the cost of his life was not given the same attention as his life. The body was buried with great care, the heaven was informed, and more energy was spent on catching the monster alive, and then the people in the heaven came to deal with it!
This is not what Zixia wanted! He risked his life just to exchange his life for the chance for the border soldiers to survive! If the news is passed on earlier, someone will come to support earlier, and if the monster is eradicated earlier, perhaps one more soldier will survive.
Looking at the smile frozen on Zixia's lips, Shen Li couldn't help but clench her fists. She could understand how he felt about dying on the back of his mount! Finally completing the mission, he felt relieved. But the Immortal Realm Lord... Shen Li gritted her teeth.
The people who were arranging the mourning hall wanted to lift the coffin and put it in the middle, but Shen Li suddenly grabbed one side of the coffin, making it impossible for them to lift it. "Your Highness?" Shen Li bit her index finger, wiped the blood on her hand, slapped the coffin heavily, leaving a bloody handprint, and whispered: "Shen Li will achieve your wish." After that, she turned and left.
After Shen Li returned home, he took out the dying Xixi from the cage. Seeing this, Rouya, who was standing by, risked her life to grab Shen Li's arm and begged, "Your Highness, please don't do this! If you play with Xixi again, she will die." "My bird won't be so useless. Go out and close the door."
Rouya looked at Shen Li in panic, but finally obeyed the order and went out. She was guarding outside the door, but she saw the light in the house. Not long after, she heard Shen Li say, "From today on, I will be in seclusion. No matter who comes to see me, just say that I haven't come out yet." Rouya was puzzled. Why did she suddenly have to go into seclusion? She scratched her head and bravely pushed open the door.
As soon as she looked inside, she felt something squeezed out under her feet.
When she looked closely, it turned out to be the naked Xixi, but it was in a much better spirit for some reason and jumped to the front hall. Didn't the prince deal with it? Rouya pushed the door open and walked around the screen.
She saw Shen Li lying on the bed meditating, looking like she was going to retreat. She didn't want to disturb him, so she left immediately. But when she got outside, Rouya couldn't find Xixi.
She didn't know that Xixi had sneaked into the army ready to go, knocked out a soldier in the corner, stripped him of his clothes, snatched his token, and changed into his appearance, ready to leave the border.
At this time, in the Immortal Realm Palace, Chi Rong was kneeling at the feet of the Immortal Realm Lord and said respectfully: "The prince wants to leave the royal city, and Qing Yan is following him. Immortal Realm Lord, do you need to bring her back?"
The lips behind the silver mask were silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "Let her go." The Immortal Realm world marched fast, but it still took two days to reach the border. The seal of Xutianyuan was only broken a little, but the miasma mist leaked out of it had covered the border camp. Many soldiers with weaker magic power vomited all day, not to mention fighting, so it was difficult for them to even sit up.
The scorpion-tailed fox was surrounded by Mofang and his capable generals ten miles away from the camp. When they first arrived at the camp, they heard the roar of the scorpion-tailed fox from afar, and even the soldiers who had killed many monsters would be weak.
Sure enough, the monsters sealed in Xutianyuan were much more powerful than others. Shen Li thought of Zixia lying in the coffin and clenched his fists. "Line up!" General Shangbei shouted loudly, and the reinforcements from the capital all lined up neatly, except for a soldier at the end who suddenly walked forward.
Seeing this, General Shangbei shouted, "Those who disobey military orders will be beaten with thirty rounds!" Shen Li took off the heavy helmet on her head and looked up at him: "General Shangbei, Shen Li dares to come and ask for a fight." "King... Prince?"
Seeing that it was her, there was a commotion in the army. Some of them had fought with Lord BiCang, and some had only heard of her name, but no matter who they were, they knew that with Lord BiCang around, they were invincible. For a moment, everyone was refreshed and their morale soared.
Although General Shangbei was happy, he also knew that Shen Li was now a married woman, and the Immortal Realm Lord did not let her fight because of his considerations. He was hesitant and said: "Your Majesty, the Immortal Realm Lord does not agree to your fight, and I dare not dare..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shen Li, "General, since Shen Li is here, he will not go back empty-handed. I will trample the head of this monster under my feet within three days."
As soon as these words came out, the whole army fell silent. Shang Bei was silent for a moment, then suddenly pulled the reins, turned his mount around, and waved his long sword: "Go!"
Shen Li walked side by side with Shang Bei: "Thank you, General, for agreeing to let Shen Li join the war."
"My Lord, if I don't agree, what will you do?"
"Knock you out, take your soldiers, and kill the monster."
Shang Bei smiled bitterly: "That's it."
The further they went, the thicker the miasma became, and the more terrifying the monster's roar became. Breaking through the heavy mist, the reinforcement team finally saw the monster that was still fighting with Mofang and his men.
It was huge, like a fox, with a scorpion-like tail, waving in the air.
The huge poisonous needle on the scorpion's tail was daunting.
But when the reinforcements came, it opened its mouth and howled.
Its bright red teeth were sharp and serrated, and the saliva dripping from the gaps between its teeth corroded the earth. Where it stood, the sand and stones had become thick and greasy.
The several generals who were fighting with it were covered in blood and exhausted. Only Mofang was still actively attacking in front of it.
Shang Bei shouted, "Join the battle!"
Before he could say anything, Shen Li had already grasped the silver spear, flew forward, and shouted sharply. The silver spear pierced the scorpion-tailed fox's forehead, and the savage magic power poured into its brain. The scorpion-tailed fox screamed in pain, and the huge scorpion tail pierced directly towards Shen Li. Shen Li pulled out the silver spear, turned around and chopped, using the spear body as a sword to cut off the stomach needle of the scorpion-tailed fox.
The roar of the monster almost broke everyone's eardrums. It was stomping around, and its claws were about to hit Mofang. Shen Li flew down and pushed Mofang, and he fell three feet away. Shen Li stood firmly on the ground, half squatted, shouted in a deep voice, and stabbed the scorpion-tailed fox with the spear, piercing the flesh pad of the scorpion-tailed fox's foot.
But in a moment, the monster's blood had stained her body, and the scorpion-tailed fox also retreated again and again.
Mofang stared at Shen Li in the back: "Your Majesty."
Shen Li glanced at him sideways and saw that his armor was broken and his face and body were covered in blood. Looking into the distance, the soldiers rescued by the reinforcements were all in the same state. In the sand around them, there were countless soldiers whose bodies were already cold.
Shen Li gritted her teeth and clenched her silver spear so tightly that her hand almost turned pale: "I'm sorry... I'm late."
This emotion did not stay in her for long. Shen Li stepped forward, and her silver spear and long body stood in the wind and sand: "How dare you, a mere beast, to act rashly! I will trample every inch of your flesh and blood!"
