Soldiers' camp, Empress Yong Qi's tent.
"Your Majesty! I apologize for letting them go." Said Du Yang who immediately knelt before Yong Qi when the war was over.
Yong Qi was expressionless as Du Yang admitted his mistake. Even so, at least because of the help from the spirits of the Jinya and Baixue mountains, they could finish off half of Luoyang's army and their number of soldiers who died was only about 50 people.
"There's no point in you going low in front of me." Said Yong Qi which made Du Yang instantly raise his head in surprise. "... At least we got them all cornered. That might be pretty good since we can attack their territory simultaneously."
"Your Majesty is right. After they lost many of their warriors and magical beasts, we have a chance to take down their city in the near future." Said Cheng Xing Xian who heard the entire conversation inside the tent belonging to Yong Qi.
"General Cheng Xing is right. Tomorrow at midnight, we will attack the city of Luoyang and the two regions of Chuye and Lianyu. Each brings two thousand troops and the rest will stand guard here." Clearly Yong Qi while reopening his map.
When Yong Qi made a decision, there was no one to oppose him and that meant that everyone had agreed to him and would move according to his Empress's orders.

"Huh! I am so full today!" Xun Ji'an complained after she ate all of Luoyang's magical beats without thinking about her situation back then.
"Was that much until you're so full?" Asked Lun Quo who was currently walking next to Xun Ji'an towards the tent belonging to Empress Yong Qi.
"Yes, yeah,... About like that. At least I can eat a big bear in one fell swoop and a poisonous scorpion." Xun Ji'an replied as she held onto her stomach which looked big compared to usual.
"Does that mean you're going to sleep for a long time?" Lun Quo asked, "Isn't it usually a snake that has eaten its prey, it won't eat and continue to sleep for a month?"
Xun Ji'an put on a shocked expression as soon as Lun Quo just directly deduced her current state. "... Just be right! Are you equating me with a perfect snake? I am a spirit who can do everything. There's no way I'm gonna go straight to bed that long!" Xun Ji'an chirped as she heard Lun Quo speak.
"Then, why are we walking towards the Empress' tent? Shouldn't we help Miss Xu to treat some of the injured troops?" Lun Quo asked as soon as he remembered Xu Wuya who was treating the heavily injured soldiers.
"That's it. Don't worry about him. That guy could've done it himself." Javan Xun Ji'an dismissively felt that she would be useless if she remained involved.
"Hey! You two!" Exclaimed a Yong Fei warrior who was currently approaching the two.
"Aren't you two the relief troops from Zhang Palace?" Asked the soldier who managed to make the two of them stand directly facing towards him.
"Hm, um,... Looks like." Xun Ji'an replied in confusion.
"Then join us! Right now we are burning all the Magical Beats we killed during the war. Here we very rarely eat meat like today." It was clearly the warrior who made Xun Ji'an feel nauseous after she heard the word food in her sentence.
"Ahhhhh,... Maybe you just take Lun Quo. I'm full enough." Said Xun Ji'an who did not stop holding her stomach with a sour face that seemed to be unable to bear to leave the two of them.
"Ahhhhh,... Then it's okay. I'll just take Lun Quo." Said the soldier who was directly standing facing towards Lun Quo.
"No! For me eating is not important because I am just a shapeless spirit. Perhaps you should take Baixue and Xu Wuya with you. They may be very exhausted after their first war." Chirps of Lun Quo who was directly standing next to Xun Ji'an who was getting away from her.
The soldier's face immediately became disappointed because he failed to invite Lun Quo and Xun Ji'an to eat with them. "... Then maybe I'll just go. We'll leave some parts for you!" Said the soldier who was suddenly immediately cheerful as he said his sentence and left the two of them in the same place.
”Why bother taking us?” muttered Xun Ji'an who noticed when her stomach felt nauseous when she heard the word food.
Meanwhile, in Nianfeng city Zhang's palace.
"Ahhhhh,... So tired!" Said Lian Luo and Mu Chen Xiao simultaneously and both of them instantly fell down from the top of their horses due to their two feet that felt aching.
”Haah? They fell right away?” inner Zhang Xiuzhen who was astonished after seeing the two had fallen off his horse.
"Great teacher Zhao! Can we rest here?" Ying Tian asked who seemed to look very tired just like the two people earlier.
Zhao Bingyan who heard the question immediately turned to her and replied, "Please! You can visit anywhere as long as you don't go to entertainment and escape from the assignment." Zhao Bingyan replied which directly stared coldly at Mu Chen Xiao.
”Haah? Did he just offend me?” inner Mu Chen Xiao who felt accused after Zhao Bingyan looked at him coldly.
Because the city was so crowded, Zhang Xiuzhen directly descended from his horse followed by the other two people who were in front of him at this moment. He immediately approached Mu Chen Xiao and reached out for him.
"Now Xiao Xiao had never been here before, right?" Zhang Xiuzhen asked with a friendly smile as he was making Mu Chen Xiao have to stare at him. "... In that case, I'll take you for a walk in the city including visiting restaurants that sell lots of good food."
”He thinks I'm a greedy person?!” inner Mu Chen Xiao after he heard the sentence.
"Yes, I'm so hungry. Take me to that place!" Mu Chen Xiao replied, standing on his own two feet.
When the two were about to leave, Lian Luo instantly stood back up and said, "Your Majesty! You should return to the palace immediately!" His words that managed to make the two stop and turned towards Lian Luo who was standing behind them.
"Huh,... Later then! Tell your majesty I'm walking out!" Zhang Xiuzhen's chirp that directly pulled Mu Chen Xiao away from the place.
"T, UH,... But! Your Honor,..." Lian Luo could only fall silent expressionlessly once her remark had been ignored by Zhang Xiuzhen who was more concerned for his guests compared to his loyal servants.
Seeing the two leave, Zhao Bingyan immediately stood next to Ying Tian and said, "Follow the two of them." Her speech that made Ying Tian instantly feel happy as soon as he saw Zhao Bingyan was going to walk with him.
”I have completely ignored.” Inner Lian Luo who watched the four people who had ignored her and left her with their horses.
”.....”
A large food stall built around the city of Nianfeng called Tanhua Food Store, has many visitors who come from the Palace and their servants who look graceful and enchanting. Their food was so expensive that not just anyone could visit the place.
”Tanhua food store? So, this is what he meant by having a lot of good food?” inner Mu Chen Xiao who was watching the tavern visitors who looked like they were shining like gold.
"Xiao Xiao's! Comehere! There are several tables that have been prepared for the guests of the Palace!" Zhang Xiuzhen exclaimed as soon as he learned that there were several rows of tables devoted to the Palace guests who would do his duty tomorrow.
A long table looks lined up to fill one of the VVIP rooms in the tavern. Just above it are some of the most expensive foods and some wines that are close to their plates.
”I thought, The Palace will hold a banquet to welcome us. As it turned out, his banquet was held in a crowded tavern like this place. Am I dreaming or am I mistaken?” inner Mu Chen Xiao who was paying attention to the table.
Then, when he was looking at his desk. All of a sudden from behind, someone had placed his hand on Mu Chen Xiao's shoulder and managed to make him jerk in shock after he felt that.
"For a long time no see, Mu Chen Xiao."
His gaze was immediately turned backwards and his expression turned extremely shocked after he saw this man!
”Dia,... Is Shang Ren?!”
