Chapter 1142: Chapter 873: Does the Apprentice Have a Secret?
There was still a stretch of road to Yangzhou, but at such a close distance, it should theoretically be safe. If the Imperial forces could be ambushed outside such a major hub, with the Demon Suppression Departnt’s Jade Token taken and King Zhao’s sword stolen, the Empress would need to issue a self-critique decree. Lord Bao Qin’s presence was evidence, clearly the Imperial vanguard had arrived for support, and it seed more strong forces would co.
In the Worldly Society, this was the height of Cao Gang’s power, and they should already have control of the river section by now.
Yet Ling Ruoyu still felt a sense of crisis. This was the easiest ti to lower one’s guard, and perhaps soone was secretly gathering, just waiting for this mont. Especially since Wan Dongliu of the Cao Gang hadn’t appeared yet, which was particularly strange and made mishaps seem more likely.
Really strange. Why hadn’t the people from Cao Gang shown up yet? Was it because Lord Bao Qin ca, and Master Wan felt there was no worry?
But at this mont, Lord Bao Qin was being held in a cabin, who knows doing what, perhaps sothing intimate; how could that be of any use?
The young girl was filled with frustration, sitting cross-legged at the bow, quietly on guard. Suddenly she felt she had gone from a high-status guardian and sword tester to a re guard keeping watch for others, an uncomfortable shift.
What Lord Bao Qin was doing right now was unknown if it counted as intimate, rely nestled in a man’s embrace being kissed.
The anger from the tantrum outside vanished with just one kiss…
No matter how many years she had walked outside with the official title of the Imperial bureaucracy, ensuring a presence full of dignity, as long as she saw her young lady and her young lord, Bao Qin still felt like just a little maid.
A little maid who greatly admired the young lord, with eyes full of hope for his affection.
Hoping for so many years. Her beauty unchanged, but was her heart still that of a young girl?
“Flirt and then run, irresponsible scoundrel…” Bao Qin nestled in his arms, sniffled and whimpered, “If you hadn’t flirted with back then, the young lady would have married off long ago. Why wait thirty years here, the world doesn’t only have you as a man…”
“So you want to marry soone else?”
“No. I’m glad you flirted with , or the young lady would have married to soone else.”
So are you blaming for flirting with you or thankful that I did? Zhao Changhe sensed the whirlwind of a woman’s heart and whispered, “I never thought it would take so long… You were young then, I thought we weren’t in a hurry, and I even hinted to Wanzhuang, we could wait until I returned… I’m sorry.”
Hence the saying “marry after this battle” is not to be made lightly, such a painful lesson.
“Are you despising for being old now?” Bao Qin indignantly lifted her head.
“Not at all.” Zhao Changhe looked down at her still charming face and lightly kissed her forehead, “Compared to back then, your eyes and brows have gained an air of spirit, and you’re even more captivating now…”
“Hmph, when it cos to age, other than Cui Yuanyang, I’m still the youngest one. You’re surrounded by old maids nearing nopause and countless ancient ones thousands of years old!”
“Emmmm…” Zhao Changhe was about to say they wouldn’t reach nopause, but before he could, Bao Qin suddenly beca alert, “That gatekeeper outside doesn’t count! Don’t tell you’re seriously interested in her?”
Zhao Changhe was caught between laughing and crying, “What are you thinking, I truly see her as my daughter and apprentice. I say, don’t always lead thoughts that way, we already ruined our reputations, but my apprentice needs hers intact. Even when watching her fight, I sit a whole ten feet away, alright…”
Bao Qin was skeptical, “Have you turned a new leaf? She’s so pretty, with a slim waist and long legs, gallantly chic, the spitting image of another Yue Hongling, aside from not wearing earthy red clothes, you don’t like her?”
“That’s my own daughter! Just like with Dragon Sparrow Star River, who would think that way.”
Bao Qin was even more suspicious, “Surely you never thought about Dragon Sparrow Star River?”
Who the heck thought of that… Zhao Changhe couldn’t explain, so he simply kissed her again.
In dealing with the Bao Qin Empress, nothing else mattered, just blocking her mouth would do, with anything.
In no ti, the few monts of martial resolve condensed in Bao Qin turned her into a puddle of mush, her eyes watery and breathing rapid, “My lord…”
“…”
“Bao Qin misses you.”
This call of “my lord” drove a battle passion more fierce than “master”, Zhao Changhe instantly felt on fire.
It seed Bao Qin had improved over the years, leading the trend.
Activate the warrior’s frenzy attribute, but Bao Qin herself was not faring well, in almost no ti her clothes beca disheveled, neckline pulled down to her shoulder, revealing a white shoulder and collarbone.
“Clang!” A sound of blades clashing ca from the bow outside the cabin.
Ling Ruoyu swung her longsword to guard the cabin, surrounded by a large group of n in black.
She was looking more like a guard… Ling Ruoyu glared at the group of ruthless Demon Followers ahead, inwardly complaining. As expected, her premonition was correct, and this mont nearing Yangzhou was indeed the most dangerous.
How co it feels like there are several Imperial Realm ones here, none of whom she recognized. What’s going on with the Chaotic World Book these days, aren’t the Imperial Realm demons recorded?
Not only unrecorded, this group of Demon Followers didn’t waste words, directly attacking, aiming for fatal blows. It seed they wanted to swiftly kill and steal the sword before a response in Yangzhou, and then escape.
Bao Qin was murmuring, “Aren’t you going to help your apprentice…”
Zhao Changhe said, “This Dragon Sparrow has been restrained all the way…”
Not sure which Dragon Sparrow was being held back. Here this Dragon Sparrow whizzed out, while the Dragon Sparrow outside jumped into Ling Ruoyu’s hand.
The girl suddenly found a large plank in her hand, the mighty force whirling her around like a windmill several tis before she could stop.
“A bunch of nobodies, really think I’m just watching the show! Enough is enough, enough is enough!”
