Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 971

Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan fell from the sky without major trauma, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he landed, Xiao Xu put down the people behind him, and when he was about to speak, there was a sudden thunderous explosion from the city behind him, and everyone immediately got down on the ground, shaking the ground, as if the whole world was about to collapse.

Dust fell down and fell on everyone, and everyone got up with a disheveled face.

But everyone's faces were full of fear and the joy of being alive after the catastrophe.

If they left later, they would have been blown to pieces by this time.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Chu Qingyan who was wiping the dust off her face, her eyes were full of gratitude, if her flock of eagles hadn't appeared, how could they still be standing here well.

Although there were only a few thousand people entering the city at that time, they were also the vanguard of the three armies. Seeing that they had developed a feeling of gratitude for the little guy, Xiao Xu curled his lips indistinctly.

Chu Qingyan didn't know it, and she had gained another favor, which would be of great help to her in her future journey.

At this moment, Xiao Xu looked around at the crowd, everyone was in a state of distress, his eyes sank, and he immediately ordered people to surround the whole city, stay where they were, and enter the city after all the dust fell to the ground.

The wounded soldiers went down to treat their wounds one after another, and the rest of the soldiers who did not enter the city immediately took orders to do things.

Although the explosion came suddenly and caused panic among the three armies, because His Royal Highness, as the chief general, still stood in front of them calmly and calmly gave them orders, their suspended hearts finally fell to the ground.

After experiencing the catastrophe of life and death, everyone is more united and orderly.

After entering the main tent, Fang left a few people lined up and knelt down to plead guilty.

Fang Liu blamed himself endlessly, "Your Highness, it was us who did not make all-round preparations before entering the city, allowing the enemy to take advantage of the loopholes, which led to this explosion, and we will end up committing a heinous crime."

Xing Cheng echoed, "General Fang is right, we were too careless and didn't notice the enemy's plan. When Fuyu escaped, we should have noticed something strange here, but we didn't, which led to this This catastrophe has put His Highness in this dangerous situation. The general is willing to accept the punishment."

Jinxin bowed his head, "The last general is also guilty! I am willing to accept the punishment."

Xiao Xu sat on the main seat, watching several soldiers expounding quietly and self-reproachfully, his fingers tapped on the table, his expression was indifferent, making it difficult to fathom his emotions at this time.

At this time, Gao Hao stood up, and he cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, although these colleagues have an inescapable responsibility for being caught in the trap this time, they cannot be entirely blamed for this matter. Pang Huang is too cruel and merciless. We also did not expect that he would use [-] troops as bait, the level of cruelty was beyond our expectation."

Chu Qingyan who was on the side also stood up, she frowned and said, "Now is the time for employing people, Your Highness can give them a chance to make meritorious deeds and redeem their sins."

Xiao Xu glanced at the crowd, seeing that everyone was standing up to intercede, he said slowly, "Okay, since everyone is interceding for you, then I will give you a chance to pay off your merits."

"Thank you, Your Highness." The three bowed their heads in thanks.

Chu Qingyan looked at the big ice cube with a cold look after he came out of the city. He knew that this injury made him feel uncomfortable, and he also knew that the three of them could not be blamed for this battle, but he was not good at expressing his opinion. For this failure, most of the soldiers had resentment in their hearts, and he could not suppress this resentment, otherwise it would be disadvantageous for the three of them to lead the army in the future.

So his silence made everyone feel balanced, and he was willing to come out to protect the three of them, which was more convincing than his own initiative to show mercy.

Chu Qingyan felt that commanding troops was not an easy skill.

Everyone looked exhausted, Xiao Xu didn't say much, and after making arrangements, he let them disperse.

At this time, Huo Ling hurried in.

"Master, the situation of Void Spirit is not good!"

The anxious words made Xiao Xu stand up from the chair immediately, he followed Huo Ling out with big strides, and Chu Qingyan immediately followed after hearing the words.

She was beating drums in her heart, and there was a deep sense of uneasiness.

She thought of the blood-covered Ethereal, that lifeless face, and Yanluo's painful look in the city, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Standing in front of the tent, she suddenly didn't dare to open the curtain, for fear of bad news.

And Xiao Xu, who found her hesitating, turned around and took her hand, looking at her deeply, "No matter what it is, you have to face it, avoid it, it can't solve the problem."

Chu Qingyan raised her head suddenly, looking at him with sore eyes.

In fact, compared to himself, it should be the big ice cube that is more uncomfortable. Kongling has followed him for more than ten years, and his friendship is even deeper.

She held him backhanded and nodded heavily.

Xiao Xu smiled softly at her, then restrained his smile, and led her into the tent.

"Basically I can't feel the pulse anymore, let's prepare for the funeral!"

As soon as she entered the tent, she heard a strange voice, she obviously felt the hand of the big ice cube tightened suddenly, she ignored the pain of his grip, and said in a daze, "Big ice cube, did I hear correctly? "

What do you mean by preparing for the funeral?
Ethereal——

With a sullen face, Xiao Xu strode in.

But at this time, the military doctor who had just spoken just now saw Xiao Xu walking in, and immediately bowed his head and said, "General, Mr. Kong Ling has lost a lot of blood, and his internal organs have been gradually weakened by the strong impact of explosives, and there is no way to recover."

A look of mourning flashed across Xiao Xu's face, and his eyes turned to the person who was lying quietly, just standing still.

"No, Kong Ling suffered such serious sword wounds a few years ago, and survived well, and it will be the same this time." Huo Ling squatted down with his head in his arms, his voice very painful.

Tu Ling couldn't help covering his eyes with his hands, his face also suffering from pain.

Chu Qingyan felt the deep sadness in the air. She sniffed and looked at Kong Ling lying on the bed. His face was pale and his clothes were stained red with blood. The military doctor kept stopping the bleeding. Unfortunately, But to no avail.

She suddenly remembered that when they met for the first time, he appeared in front of her in a snow suit and looked at herself with scrutiny. At that time, she was poisoned by mistakenly eating cakes, and he was summoned from a distant place by a big ice cube. , although he was a little dissatisfied with his identity, after all, she was still young at that time, and Emperor Xixuan decided to bestow the marriage, he was vaguely hostile towards him, but he did not stand idly by her poisonousness for this reason.

In the later contact, she felt that he was a gentle and kind-hearted person.

Later, the appearance of Yanluo made her see an ethereal who was infatuated with love but also tolerant of love.

This scene flashed before her eyes, making her eyes blush.

Suddenly, a heart-piercing cry came from outside the curtain, "No, I will never let him die like this—"
