Chapter 604: Chapter 604 War God
Song Qiuhuan was adamant, not giving Chen Xuan a chance to speak, "Brother, don’t worry. He knows he was wrong, and he will certainly take good care of me in the future. I’m doing quite well here, so you don’t have to worry anymore..."
"No!" Before Song Qiuhuan could finish, the man in the windbreaker interrupted her directly.
"Do you have any idea how dangerous it was for you this time? If it weren’t for the Taibai Star Chain I gave you, you might already be dead!"
Chen Xuan understood. The Taibai Star Chain must be the name of the white jade anklet that Song Qiuhuan was wearing around her ankle.
Song Qiuhuan was still reluctant, "Brother, please. I’m very lucky and you gave me the Taibai Star Chain for protection, so I’ll be fine. Please don’t make me go back to Yanjing..."
"No!" The man in the windbreaker was very decisive, "It was because I sided with you and kept it from our parents that you came here alone. Now that such a big incident has occurred, fortunately, our parents don’t know yet. If they found out, how could I explain it to them?!"
"Furthermore, when I arrived just now, the people from Dong Family’s Pojun Hall already recognized my identity. With a little investigation, they can easily find out yours as well."
"Even if I allowed you to stay, do you think you could continue to live in peace?"
Song Qiuhuan wanted to argue more, but upon hearing the man in the windbreaker’s words, she deflated like a punctured ball and lost all her energy.
Clearly, she had no choice but to accept the reality that she couldn’t stay.
After a long time, Song Qiuhuan finally relented, "Alright, I’ll go with you!"
The man in the windbreaker’s face showed a relieved expression, "That’s my good sister! Come on, I’ll take you home!"
With that, the man in the windbreaker made to leave with Song Qiuhuan.
But just then, a huge commotion erupted from outside the villa.
Footsteps, engine sounds, and even the roar of propellers came one after another, as if an army of thousands was stampeding past.
The man in the windbreaker frowned, "They’ve come after all!"
Immediately after, the courtyard gate opened and two figures walked in side by side, bowing in greeting to the man in the windbreaker.
"I am Liangjiang Marquis, Lei Tianzong, and this is Rakshasa Marquis, Loh Dingtian. We’ve come to pay our respects to the Western Territory War God!"
At these words, Chen Xuan was utterly stunned.
The Western Territory War God?!
Chen Xuan finally understood why Pojun had not dared to say another word upon seeing the man in the windbreaker and hastily left with his men.
It turned out that this man in the windbreaker was none other than the Western Territory War God, Song Xingyun!
The War God!
That was the highest honor in the entire Yan Country War Department!
It also represented the strongest individual martial force in the Yan Country War Department!
Bear in mind that there were only four War Gods in all of Yan Country at that time, each possessing extraordinary power and towering authority!
This towering authority refers to the real sense of power, backed by an official background, not just the power wielded by major families like the Dong Family that dominate in their own territories.
For this reason, Song Xingyun, the Western Territory War God, was essentially not a power that could be compared with forces like Pojun Hall!
However, a War God of Song Xingyun’s official status was not primarily tasked with participating in these secular power struggles. Instead, their more important duty was to guard the borders.
Therefore, on regular days, both parties would not have much interaction.
But today was clearly an exception!
"Is there a matter?" Song Xingyun eyed the two men before him, his voice light and airy.
Speaking of which, both Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong were esteemed Marquis, commanding figures in their own right.
However, in front of Song Xingyun, they were humble, merely like two insignificant characters.
"It’s nothing serious, only that I suddenly heard the Western Territory War God had descended upon Huai City, and we failed to welcome you from afar, which filled us with anxiety!"
"Indeed, since the Western Territory War God has graced our Huai City, should there be any service needed, please command us, and we will spare no effort to undertake the work of a loyal dog or horse!"
On ordinary days, Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong, being from different factions, were always openly and covertly in conflict with each other.
But now, before Song Xingyun, these two rivals of yesteryear were singing in harmony, presenting a united front of mutual benefit.
In fact, it’s not surprising, given Song Xingyun’s status as the Western Territory War God, bearing an extremely sensitive identity.
At present, as the Dong Family and Liangjiang Marquis were causing an uproar over the affairs of Huai City, and precisely at this time, Song Xingyun’s arrival in Huai City naturally led Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong to speculate his intentions.
Song Xingyun instantly saw through their thoughts, expressing contempt as he said disdainfully, "Stop that official talk, don’t think I’m unaware of the calculations you’re making."
"Let me tell you, my visit today is merely for some personal matters. I have no interest in your idle affairs whatsoever!"
"I’ve said my piece; now you can roll out. If you continue obstructing my sight, I won’t hesitate to cripple you!"
Song Xingyun’s words were fierce, carrying the wild pride of a commanding leader.
Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong, upon hearing Song Xingyun’s words, breathed a sigh of relief.
In truth, if they had their way, they certainly wouldn’t have dared to provoke the ire of this War God easily.
But they had no choice; as soon as the news of the War God’s entrance to Huai City reached the ears of the Emperor of the Dong Family and the Liangjiang Marquis, Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong received orders from their higher-ups to probe his intentions, leaving them no option but to obey and come forth.
Now, as expected, Song Xingyun’s descent upon the city had nothing to do with the struggle between the two houses, which gave them the peace of mind they desperately needed.
After all, if their conflict attracted the attention or even participation of the Yan Country War Department, the situation would be grave indeed!
"I see. In that case, we won’t disturb you any further!"
"We bid farewell to the Western Territory War God!"
Loh Dingtian and Lei Tianzong exited the gate, standing apart on either side.
Song Xingyun paid them no more heed, taking Song Qiuhuan’s hand as he prepared to leave.
However, Song Qiuhuan turned to glance back at Chen Xuan.
Understanding something, Song Xingyun momentarily let go of her hand.
Song Qiuhuan turned and ran back in front of Chen Xuan.
Looking at the woman before him, who was both familiar and somewhat strange, Chen Xuan did not know what to say for a moment.
"You... Are you leaving now?"
"Mm!" Song Qiuhuan nodded.
"Oh." Chen Xuan paused for a long while before he finally said, "Well then, I wish you a smooth journey."
Song Qiuhuan’s face showed a bitter smile, her stunning visage exuding an indescribable allure, "Is that it?"
"Uh, what else?" Chen Xuan was somewhat puzzled.
Song Qiuhuan shook her head, seeming somewhat disappointed in Chen Xuan.
In the next instant, before Chen Xuan could react, Song Qiuhuan suddenly leaned in and gently kissed Chen Xuan’s lips.
Briefly tasting before parting, she separated before Chen Xuan could even savor the moment.
"If you ever get the chance, remember to come see me in Yanjing! I’ll be waiting for you there!"
Having said that, Song Qiuhuan turned and walked away, leaving Chen Xuan standing there, dumbfounded.
