Chapter 467: Traitors

After saying that, Xiao Shao turned around and walked towards the commander’s tent. Looking at his straight back, Xu Xiang could only sigh. Mu Yucheng heard her sigh, glanced at her, and asked, "Will you regret rejecting him?"

Xu Xiang shook her head and said, "Young Master Xiao is an excellent man and deserves someone who truly loves him. He is very strong and I believe he will be fine after a while. As for me, my heart is very small and can only accommodate one person."

After hearing what Xu Xiang said, Mu Yucheng looked at Xiao Shao’s back and said, "He is indeed very strong. It’s just that I’m luckier than him."

Xu Xiang raised her eyebrows when she heard what he said. She held his hand and said, "You are also very strong, and the lucky one is not you, but me."

After saying that, she pulled her husband’s hand and followed Xiao Shao to the commander’s tent. When they arrived at the commander’s tent, the two soldiers that were guarding outside the tent saw them coming.

The soldiers clasped their fists and said, "Supreme General, Miss Huan is already waiting for you inside."

Xiao Shao nodded and walked into the tent. When Xu Xiang and Mu Yucheng walked into the tent, Huan Yun saw them and shouted happily: "Xu Xiang! I knew you wouldn’t abandon me here alone!"

Xu Xiang looked at Huan Yun and smiled, "You know I won’t die so easily."

After saying that, she sat down and asked, "What happened here? Why are there so many injured soldiers?"

Huan Yun heard her question and glanced at Xiao Shao. When she saw that he didn’t say anything, she looked at Xu Xiang and said, "Something big did happen two days ago."

Sensing Huan Yun’s hesitation, Xu Xiang looked at Xiao Shao and saw that he was just sitting there in a daze. Thinking of what she just said to him, Xu Xiang looked back at Huan Yun and said, "Tell me what happened here."

Since Xiao Shao didn’t say anything, Huan Yun looked at Xu Xiang and asked, "Do you know General Fan’s younger sister?"

Xu Xiang thought for a few seconds and remembered the beautiful and arrogant young lady she had seen before. Xu Xiang nodded and asked, "What’s wrong with her?"

Huan Yun glanced at Xiao Shao for a second and said, "Our current situation is all because of her. Two days ago, General Fan led an army of fifty thousand soldiers to attack the barbarian camp. But in just two hours, only two thousand soldiers returned seriously injured, and General Fan is missing."

Hearing what she said, Xu Xiang thought for a while and asked doubtfully: "What does this have to do with General Fan’s younger sister?"

Huan Yun sighed and said, "We found out that she colluded with the barbarians and was also working together with the biological father of Advisor Fan. Second Miss Fan leaked our plan to Advisor Fan’s father. Advisor Fan’s father also stole the map about our troops’ positions, and gave the map to Ka Huo Long, which resulted in our current situation."

After Huan Yun finished explaining, Xu Xiang thought for a while and remembered Fan Zhengyue’s hostility towards her, and how cold Xiao Shao treated Fan Zhengyue. She turned to look at Xiao Shao and asked in doubt: "Did Second Miss Fan do all of this because of Young Master Xiao?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Shao came back to his senses and said quickly: "I have nothing to do with that woman."

Seeing Xiao Shao’s anxious look when he was explaining to his wife, Mu Yucheng said nothing. He also knows how crazy a woman can become once she becomes obsessed with someone. In this case, he does not have any right to comment on Xiao Shao about what happened.

Having lost many soldiers, Mu Yucheng knew that Xiao Shao was the angriest person at this moment. Judging from Xiao Shao’s personality, Mu Yucheng is sure that if that Second Miss Fan was here right now, she would wish she had not been born.

Seeing that Xu Xiang was silent, Xiao Shao reached out to hold her hand but stopped in the middle. He clenched his hand and then lowered it down. After a moment of silence, he said, "I will lead a team to find General Fan tonight."

The moment these words came out, Fan Zhengyin suddenly walked in and said, "You can’t go."

As soon as he said this, five pairs of eyes looked at him. Fan Zhengyin calmly sat down next to Xiao Shao and said, "Xiao Da Lang, you can’t go."

Xiao Shao looked at his military advisor and said, "Give me a reason."

Fan Zhengyin calmly poured himself a cup of water and said, "First of all, you are our supreme general. If something happens to you, the soldiers’ morale will plummet and we will lose half of our strength."

He then took a sip of water and said, "Secondly, the people who caused all of this are my father and my younger cousin. If one person must be held accountable, it would be me since I failed to recognize the traitors."

"Thirdly, the one who is missing now is my eldest brother. I should go out to find him." He said while putting down the empty cup.

Fan Zhengyin then looked at Xiao Shao and said calmly: "There is one last reason. If something happens to me, A Lu Zhi from the Shen Gu Army can take my place. But if something happens to you, no one can take your place. Xiao Da Lang, you must remember this. The Night Army exists only because of you, and exists only for you."

After saying all of this, Fan Zhengyin looked at Xu Xiang and Mu Yucheng, and said, "Miss Xu, young Master Mu, I’m glad you two are alright. Let’s have a meal together after I resolve this problem."
