The morning sunlight, like a layer of gold dust, sprinkled on the training ground of Beiying.

After a whole night of rest, the veterans were in such good spirits that it was as if they had all been sent back to the factory for repairs.

Last night they were a group of mournful soldiers crawling out of their graves, but today they are all full of energy and standing tall.

At this moment, they were gathered around a pile of brand-new equipment, exclaiming in amazement.

These equipment were sent by Qin Ruxue early in the morning.

"Holy shit! This knife!"

An old soldier held up a brand-new steel knife and waved it in the sunlight, the blade gleaming with a cold light.

"This thing can cut a hair in two! It's much easier to use than my old family heirloom!"

"You call that a family heirloom? I think it's more like a rusty heirloom!"

His companion mocked him mercilessly while lovingly stroking his brand-new chainmail.

"This armor is great! The workmanship is flawless! I feel like I could take on a wild boar right now!"

"Stop bragging! Look at these boots! What's they made of? How come they're so light?"

"Wearing this, you could probably cover a hundred miles in a single night while running away, right?"

Throughout the training ground, murmurs and discussions rose and fell.

Three thousand veterans donned their new equipment, their faces displaying a mixture of shock, curiosity, and unbelievable elation.

Meng Hu also put on a brand new set of black iron heavy armor.

The armor, entirely black, was inlaid with dark gold cloud patterns.

The shoulder armor is broad and thick, and the breastplate is so shiny it reflects one's image.

His towering figure, accentuated by this armor, made him look exactly like a guardian deity stepping out of a temple.

Meng Hu pounded his breastplate with satisfaction, making a dull thud.

This level of defense is so strong that even the sharpest knife couldn't cut through it.

Just then, a brand-new carriage slowly drove into the training ground and stopped in front of everyone.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and Lin Mo jumped out.

Immediately afterwards, he reached his hand into the carriage curtain.

Inside the carriage, a fair and slender hand with distinct knuckles rested on his palm.

The next second, Chu Mengyao appeared before everyone's eyes.

After the arrangements were finalized last night, she and Meng Hu were arranged to rest at the Lin residence.

Bai Zhi also thoughtfully brought her a change of clothes.

At this moment, Chu Mengyao had washed away all the dust and weariness.

She changed out of her plain white dress and put on an ice-blue long skirt.

The soft colors made her already fair skin appear even more radiant and luminous.

The flowing lines perfectly accentuated her waist and stunning curves.

As her skirt fluttered, a pair of straight, slender, snow-white legs were faintly visible.

At this moment, Chu Mengyao was like a snow lotus in the cold wind, pure and holy.

It is so beautiful that it makes your heart tremble, yet you dare not desecrate it.

Lin Mo whistled in his heart.

Wow, Bai Zhi's aesthetic sense is quite something.

Where did you find these clothes?

The battle-damaged skin has been directly replaced with the limited edition Ice Goddess skin?

Who can stand this.

The three thousand veterans were all dumbfounded.

The swords, spears, and armor in my hands suddenly lost their appeal.

Finally, one of the bolder veterans couldn't help but mutter something under his breath.

"My goodness... our Yao'er... is so handsome..."

That sound was like pressing a switch.

"He's more than just handsome! He's... well... he's just too handsome!"

"Pah! You bunch of bumpkins don't know anything! Our Yao'er is... um... a fairy descended from heaven!"

"Yes, yes, yes! A fairy descended to earth! A fairy descended to earth! That's a great phrase!"

A group of burly men, when it came to praising someone, had a pitifully limited vocabulary.

But that heartfelt pride and affection is genuine.

It's like watching your own daughter finally grow into a beautiful young woman, feeling incredibly proud.

Chu Mengyao had never seen anything like this before, and her pretty face instantly turned bright red.

She shifted her feet somewhat awkwardly, but the view beneath her skirt was even more alluring.

Lin Mo felt his blood boil with excitement.

"Shut the hell up! You bunch of good-for-nothings!"

Meng Hu roared, making everyone tremble.

He walked up to Chu Mengyao in a few steps, and looking at the graceful Chu Mengyao, a kind smile suddenly appeared on his fierce face.

That look in his eyes was just like that of an old father watching his own cabbage finally grow up.

"Yao'er, you're beautiful!"

Meng Hu gave Chu Mengyao a thumbs up.

Chu Mengyao lowered her head even further.

Lin Mo walked over to Qin Ruxue's side. "How are the preparations going?"

"All done."

Qin Ruxue nodded.

"Seven thousand Xuanjia soldiers have assembled outside the city gates and are ready to depart at any time."

This is the final result of the discussions last night.

Lin Mo, Meng Hu, and Chu Mengyao led 7,000 Xuanjia soldiers and 3,000 veterans of the Hanshan Army, totaling 10,000 men, to launch a surprise attack on Zhenbei City via a back road.

Meanwhile, Qin Ruxue was stationed at Tiebi Pass.

He was in charge of the remaining three thousand Xuanjia soldiers, five thousand Xuanjia heavy cavalry, and over one hundred Baihua Camp girls under Shangguan Yan, responsible for guarding the home.

"Okay, then let's go..."

Lin Mo raised his arm, about to give a shout.

But Qin Ruxue gently grabbed his arm.

After hesitating for a long time, Qin Ruxue uttered four words.

Be careful in everything.

"rest assured."

Lin Mo patted the back of her hand and then gave her some instructions.

"You too, don't try to tough it out."

"Have you kept the jade pendant I gave you safe?"

Lin Mo asked in a low voice.

Qin Ruxue nodded.

"Keep it safe, and keep it close to your body."

"That's good."

Lin Mo moved even closer.

"Remember, no matter what, never let the jade pendant leave your side."

"If there's any problem you can't solve, crush it, understand?"

Qin Ruxue nodded again.

Lin Mo was relieved.

He straightened up and waved his hand toward the training ground.

"Let's go!"

After saying that, he nimbly boarded the carriage.

Then he reached out again and helped Chu Mengyao into the car.

Meng Hu then mounted his horse, drew his long sword, pointed it into the distance, and let out a deafening roar.

"Mountain-Shaking Army, listen to my command! Target: Zhenbei City!"

"Avenge the old general! Avenge the young general! Avenge our 30,000 brothers!!"

"Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!"

Three thousand veterans, their arms wrapped in white cloth and clad in brand-new armor, roared in unison, their shouts nearly lifting the roof off the barracks.

They crowded around the brand-new carriage, making their way to the city gate in a grand procession.

Outside the city, seven thousand Xuanjia soldiers, clad in jet-black armor, stood in formation, silent as a forest.

When Lin Mo's carriage appeared, the forest silently parted to create a path.

Three thousand veterans and seven thousand silent, menacing Xuanjia soldiers naturally merged into one, and then slowly headed towards Zhenbei City.
