Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage

Chapter 908: Chapter 907: Ironclad and Resolute

She was a young girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old.

Although there was a great distance between them, it was still clear that she was graceful and skilled.

Clad in armor, she looked majestic, walking alongside Feng Yexuan, and somehow, her demeanor seemed to match up to his.

The telescope adjusted its angle, and this time, he finally saw her face clearly.

She was, very beautiful...

Chu Qianli finally withdrew the telescope.

He should have known that he knew almost nothing about his world.

So, what did it matter what type of woman appeared by his side, or what relationship they had?

It had been crystal clear, hadn’t it?

That night, Chu Qianli and Feng Dingchu stayed in a small inn, and Fu Ning came with some supplies.

After instructing Fu Ning to take good care of Feng Dingchu, Chu Qianli changed into his night clothes and left the city with Shiyi.

The city walls here were much lower than those of the Imperial City.

While it was difficult for the average person to leave, for them, masters of Qinggong, it was still easy to exit from a more remote part of the wall.

It took over two hours reach Hu Mountain, and the army led by Feng Yexuan was still fighting with Shanhu Gang.

"Miss."

The man in front of her, burly and with a bronze complexion, was named Xi Jiu, a young man in his twenties.

It was said he was once a good friend of Fu Long.

That night, he brought fifty men, and before Chu Qianli’s arrival, his brothers hadn’t yet acted, they had been waiting.

"What is the situation with Prince Yexuan now?"

Although she knew that Feng Yexuan would never let her be in danger, her face was cold as ice, and her heart was always somewhat uneasy.

Xi Jiu hurriedly answered, "Prince Yexuan is leading a team of several hundred men. They’ve been fighting their way up the mountain from the base of Hu Mountain, and by an hour ago, the Prince’s troops had already reached halfway up the mountain."

This guy.

Chu Qianli couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

With a team of five hundred elite soldiers, adopting a more subtle approach with surprise attacks, and breaking through one by one, with skills of the Nightshade Army brothers, they could definitely achieve more with less effort.

But he, stubbornly chose to confront them head-on.

This man, putting personal feelings aside, his mettle was truly admirable.

"Based on their pace, how long do you estimate until they reach the summit?"

Chu Qianli, after all, hadn’t witnessed the battle herself, and wasn’t clear about the true strength of the Shanhu Gang.

"Back to Miss, when our brothers returned, they had already seen many scattered bandits fleeing. With this speed, they should reach the summit in under two hours."

"But..." Xi Jiu pondered a moment before speaking, "According to my observations, there seems to be more to Shanhu Gang than meets the eye."

"Alright, I’ll go up and check now."

Chu Qianli glanced at the brothers behind him: "Xi Jiu, just follow me, Shiyi, you take the brothers and scout around. I suspect there might be a Medicine Man Valley nearby."

"Yes!"

Shiyi led the brothers away, and while Xi Jiu followed behind Chu Qianli, he hesitated: "Miss, is it truly alright to have only me accompany you?"

"We are just scouting, not going to war, more people would make it easier to be spotted."

"But..." Xi Jiu looked troubled.

Chu Qianli paused, turned back to look at him: "Any other concerns? Are you afraid that two people aren’t safe?"

During the journey here, Shiyi had been full of praise for Xi Jiu, who surely wasn’t the type to fear death.

"Naturally, I am not afraid, but, for a lady of your stature, aren’t you afraid?"

This wasn’t at all like the conduct one would expect from an Empress.

Shouldn’t an Empress be surrounded by attendants and strategize for safety?
