Chapter 385: Chapter 320: Invite the Dancing Girl from Heavenly Fragrance Building to Dance for the General! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2
The Golden Lion fell silent upon hearing this.
In the brief exchange between the two individuals from the Western Regions, keywords like Holy Sect, Holy Daughter, and Princess of Loulan kept surfacing, seemingly hinting at a past from six years ago.
Both of their identities stemmed from a sect in the Western Regions!
As the two plotted to secretly visit the Heavenly Fragrance Building at night, the scene shifted to a secret room on the top floor of the building, where Mi Ayi hurriedly reported what she had heard to An Ge.
Her face revealed urgency as she arrived.
"Miss, the General may be in danger!"
The "General" Mi Ayi referred to was Chen Yuan.
Mi Ayi, being the maid closest to An Ge, could not be kept in the dark about An Ge being with child, having been by her side for over a decade.
After An Ge’s abrupt disappearance and return from Jingguan City, a frantic Mi Ayi with tears streaming down her face questioned where her mistress had been. An Ge’s excuses were seen through by her maid, who speculated, because An Ge had vanished right after Mi Ayi had reported the death of the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel on the Demon Battlefield. An Ge’s emotions appeared out of control at the time, and Mi Ayi found it strange. By the time she returned, An Ge had disappeared, and upon such a guess, An Ge shared the truth with her.
Mi Ayi was shocked!
The Princess and that notoriously brutal Nine Colonels actually had an intimate relationship!
But it was also a cause for joy.
Because the Princess carried a new life within her, Mi Ayi was also looking forward to it.
Derived from fondness to associated affection, Mi Ayi’s fear towards Chen Yuan turned into concern for a family member.
Inside the room, An Ge, sitting on a chair, heard the news and clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves, resisting the urge to stand up, and then slowly settled back down, trying to stay calm.
"What did those military soldiers say?"
Her water-blue eyes became troubled, rippling with emotion.
"The young General in red armor said, the newly appointed Demon Suppression Envoy from the Central Plains Court has sent an order by messenger, specifically calling for the General to meet at Tianxiong Pass personally. The tone didn’t sound too friendly."
"And also, it’s because of the General that Colonel Wei at Tianxiong Pass has been sidelined within the Sky Patrol Department, with power slipping from his grasp."
"Because of this, Military Officer Xu Xiangdong invited these soldiers to a feast, with the intention of switching allegiance!"
Mi Ayi summarized the news she had gathered. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
This sent an alarming signal: those associated with Chen Yuan were being suppressed, and with the arrival of the new Demon Suppression Envoy at Tianxiong Pass, it was uncertain what could happen.
An Ge knew her man was incredibly proud and domineering, and he would never endure humiliation. The situation could spiral out of control.
She even speculated with some malice this could be intentional by those people!
They wanted to see Chen Yuan make a mistake, to provoke him!
This scenario was all too familiar to her.
Thinking this, her heart clenched involuntarily, uncertain of what she could do for Chen Yuan.
"Miss, what should we do?" asked Mi Ayi for An Ge’s opinion.
"Send a message!" An Ge’s blue eyes filled with resolve,
"Tell the General not to come to Tianxiong Pass, no matter if he plans to rebel or leave Fusi in the future. I will stand by him. I can’t just watch him walk into this trap!"
Mi Ayi was moved by her mistress’s words but then, considering something, her expression turned grim, "But Miss, I heard that the order to the vanguard troops was issued two days ago. The General might have already received the news and be on his way. It’s very likely that the message will miss him."
An Ge, however, did not show any reaction, her beautiful eyes flickering as she softly called out a name.
"Heavenly Dog!"
Following her words, a strange and chilling laughter echoed in the room.
"Hehehe..."
Mi Ayi jumped in alarm, "Miss..."
Before she could finish speaking, a dark ink blot appeared on the exquisite wool carpet three feet in front of An Ge’s chair. As the blot spread, a pair of emerald green eyes appeared, and a terrifying presence overwhelmed the room, with strong winds whipping up.
Next, a large black dog appeared, growing in size with the wind until its body pressed against the ceiling, revealing an undeniable demonic aura.
"Miss, this dog..." Mi Ayi’s voice trembled with fear, this was clearly a powerful demon, stronger even than the mistress.
The black hound spoke human language, its green eyes glancing at Mi Ayi with a mischievous laugh, its large head bowed to reveal sharp teeth, "Please address me as Lord Heavenly Dog!"
Mi Ayi’s heart skipped a beat from shock.
Then, An Ge spoke, calming the startled Mi Ayi, "Do not fear; this Heavenly Dog was arranged by him to protect the two of us."
The "him" went without saying!
Afterward, An Ge lifted her head to meet those emerald green eyes and spoke slowly but firmly, "Go and deliver a message to your master. As his Contracted Demon, you will sense him within a certain distance. Tell him everything that has happened here, and tell the General not to come to Tianxiong Pass, not to risk it in person!"
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Dog immediately shook its huge head: "No, no, that fellow explicitly commanded me to stay by your side. If anything happens to you, I wouldn’t know how terribly I’d die."
This Heavenly Dog, a Demon of the Tao Fruit Realm, was dispatched by Chen Yuan a fortnight ago to escort An Ge outside the city.
In front of Chen Yuan, the dog was utterly respectful, but now, with Chen Yuan absent, it referred to him merely as "that fellow," showing its cunning nature.
But it still did not dare to defy Chen Yuan’s command.
"I’m fine here, you go ahead. He probably won’t blame you," An Ge softly spoke.
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Dog adamantly refused, "Not going, I won’t go even if you kill me."
As it spoke, its huge body suddenly transformed into demonic mist, reverting back the way it came, ready to disappear into the floor.
Seeing its resistance, An Ge made no moves but simply pinched her fingers, and from the mist sinking into the floor, a suppressed cry of pain was heard, followed by the strange shouts of the Heavenly Dog,
"I’ll go, I’ll go, isn’t that enough!"
With that, the Heavenly Dog burrowed out again and then turned into a black wind, directly entering the ceiling and vanishing from sight.
After its departure, An Ge’s tense heart finally eased a bit.
.......
Dusk faded to the west, and night silently descended, gradually engulfing the entire Tianxiong Pass!
Inside the Inner City, at the Sky Patrol Department headquarters.
In the Colonel Palace, candlelight flickered, giving the grand hall an aura of barren coldness.
A silhouette sat at the head, its complexion gloomily uncertain under the fluttering candlelight.
At that moment, a series of footsteps approached, entering the hall.
"General, Military Officer Xu has arrived!"
"Let him in!"
Following this muffled voice, Xu Xiangdong, dressed in red Feiyu Clothes, entered the Colonel Palace.
"This subordinate pays his respects to the General!"
"What does the General wish to see me for?"
After entering, Xu Xiangdong bowed with his head down, his voice somewhat tremulous, his lowered head filled with fear.
"What were you up to this afternoon?" the dull voice continued from the head of the room.
"This afternoon... this subordinate..." Xu Xiangdong stuttered, realizing the General was aware of the Heavenly Fragrance Building incident.
At that, angry voices arose from both sides of the great hall.
"Xu Xiangdong, what are you implying by fraternizing with those people?"
"Do you deserve General Wei’s cultivation of you?"
"After so many years of camaraderie, you boldly hold a banquet at the Heavenly Fragrance Building, are you slapping the General in the face, do you realize that?"
"You dog..."
Visible on both sides of the grand hall stood Green-armored Soldiers of the local Sky Patrol Department.
These were all the soldiers of Tianxiong Pass.
The one seated above was none other than the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, Wei Zhong.
The Colonels expressed great anger toward Xu Xiangdong’s actions. After the arrival of the Vanguard Army, they sought excuses to suppress them, yet endured indignity, and now a traitor had emerged from their own ranks.
And that one had even openly held a banquet!
Some could not contain their fury and wanted to step forward to give the other a lesson.
"Wait!"
Wei Zhong, seated at the head, called out; his large eyes fixed on Xu Xiangdong, "Xiangdong, the General does not wish to pursue anything, I just want to ask, what did you do today?"
Xu Xiangdong fell to the ground with a thud, knocking his head down, his voice carried a hint of apology, "I’m sorry, General!"
"You!"
Everyone immediately understood his meaning, glaring at each other, figures rushed forward.
At that moment,
"Let’s see who dares!"
A figure clad in red armor appeared.
It was the young Deputy General Hu Jinquan they had seen in the afternoon.
This person walked in, seeing Xu Xiangdong kneeling and the angry Colonels, he coldly smiled,
"Military Officer Xu caught the eye of General Gongyang."
"General Gongyang is currently entertaining guests."
"Xu Xiangdong, are you not going to rise? The Dancing Girl from the Heavenly Fragrance Building is not bad; bring those from today, and have them dance for the General and his guests!"
