Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

The next day, Cheng Xiao walked out of Danfeng's tent.

The Dragon Lord is still too terrifying; he actually bound his limbs and then slept with him all night.

Thankfully, nothing inappropriate for children happened, otherwise Jingliu would have had to become the butcher.

"Where did Danfeng get these props? They feel a bit scary."

Cheng Xiao recalled Danfeng's skillful movements from last night and felt that this was not the first time she had done it; she was very experienced.

As soon as he entered the central command tent, Bai Heng's nose twitched.

"Ugh, that smell is so strong! Danfeng is really going too far. Go wash up and change your clothes."

Without saying a word, Bai Heng pulled Cheng Xiao to take a bath.

"Wait, wait! I'm going to wash up, don't follow me!"

"I'm here to keep an eye on you!"

"Stop joking around. Do you think I don't know what you're up to?"

Bai Heng and Cheng Xiao struggled for a long time, but in the end, Jing Liu grabbed their ears and dragged them away.

When Danfeng arrived at the central army in high spirits, he found Chengxiao had been cleaned up and felt somewhat dissatisfied.

Is he in such a hurry to erase my scent? My methods were too gentle. Next time, I must make sure he remembers my smell perfectly.

Stared at by Danfeng's sinister gaze, Cheng Xiao could only pretend not to notice.

Jingyuan focused intently on analyzing the battle situation using the military strategy map. With their army as the main force, they advanced northwards to merge with the lines of their ancestor Yaofeng.

If they win the war inside the planet, they will gain the upper hand in the battles between airships and beast ships in space.

The people of Fengrao lack supplies, so the Yunqi can attack them from both inside and outside.

With Yingxing's addition, the battle became much easier. Jingliu and Danfeng only needed to carry out decapitation strikes, Jingyuan was in charge of the central army to control the overall situation, Baiheng acted as the vanguard, and Yingxing controlled many Jin people to assist the Yunqi army in carrying out area attacks.

Although this was Yingxing's first time on the battlefield, she did not need to face the enemy directly. In addition to her forging skills, she was also adept at manipulating various military machinery from the workshops.

Thus, a giant golden man, or Gundam, appeared in the Cloud Cavalry, crushing the enemy army with the most advanced weapons.

Without a single powerful individual, a group of lowly soldiers would be helpless against a star.

Aside from the initial discomfort of the scene of flying blood and gore, Yingxing quickly got used to it. After all, the enemy had inflicted far more damage, so there was no need to show them any mercy.

Cheng Xiao was naturally happy to be free and leisurely made some pastries for Jing Yuan to eat.

After all, Jingyuan uses his brain the most. When eating more sugary foods, while the other four get carried away, Jingyuan is always the most rational one.

"Thank you, Uncle-Master. You're so kind!"

"Don't finish it all; leave some for others."

"No problem, I won't be greedy."

Jingyuan's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the beauty mark at the corner of his eye added a touch of cunning.

[Hehehe, they've all gone out to fight, while I'm here enjoying my martial uncle's attention all to myself. How wonderful!]

The battle on the front lines lasted for three days before coming to an end. At present, the invasion of the Fengrao people is scattered and fragmented. Instead of concentrating and launching a large-scale invasion, they seem to be conserving their strength.

Therefore, wars are often sometimes leisurely and sometimes hurried. The diviner of the immortal ship can only predict the flight path for the next half month before heading towards the most severely invaded area.

The small but powerful faction was not without its strongmen, such as wolves as large as skyscrapers and six-legged horses as large as warships; these enemies were all unimaginably formidable.

But the swords of the Mirror School never speak a word; no matter your posture, it only adds another soul to the sword.

But Jingliu had a bad feeling. The fact that the abundant evil creature could restrain its desires and conceal its sharpness, and that the army it sent out was just a decoy, meant that someone must be controlling and directing it from behind the scenes.

Often, the quieter the place, the more likely it is that a larger conspiracy and crisis is brewing.

With the fighting subsided, the army was able to relax for a while. After several days of long-distance raids, the Yunqi cavalry were already exhausted.

"Xiao, today's learning..."

"Alright, let's go to the forging station."

"Xiao, today's nutritious meal..."

"Okay, I'll cook it for you. Food supplies are limited in the army, so you can't be picky about food."

"Xiao, I have a new idea. Let's put it into practice together!"

"Okay, but there's one more thing, remember to wear your protective gear properly."

"Xiao..."

"I can't take it anymore!" Bai Heng protested angrily, finding Jing Liu in a fit of rage.

"Jingliu, aren't you going to do anything about this? Look at Yingxing these past few days, she's gone too far! Does she think her affairs are the most important thing? She's always busy with Chengxiao, and hasn't even had time to groom this fox!"

Upon hearing Bai Heng's protest, Jing Liu put down his teacup without changing his expression, but his eyes were as dark as ink, like black holes.

"Hehehe, it's alright, let him go. It's just a period of time. When we get back to Luofu, I'll personally teach him how to focus his attention on me."

Jing Liu's words were as terrifying as the coldest winter month, and Bai Heng couldn't help but shiver.

"I think I'll go and discuss this with Danfeng."

On the other side, Danfeng squinted, smiling, but it was unusually eerie.

"It's alright. I was the same way when I was a child. I'm too embarrassed to refuse a child's request. When we return to Luofu, I'll send someone to invite him to the clan. As for when, we'll see when I'm satisfied."

"...I guess I should just go find Jingyuan after all."

At this moment, Jing Yuan was reading a book, looking very serious.

"It's alright, I won't forcefully interfere with my master. Improving myself and becoming more outstanding is what I should do. I can't let some romantic feelings delay my progress."

Looking at Jing Yuan's kind face, who seemed to be bathed in holy light, Bai Heng couldn't help but shed tears.

"So it turns out Jingyuan, you're the one who's going to do big things. I misunderstood you. If I ever get to eat meat in the future, I'll share some with you."

Jing Yuan smirked. Who needs your charity, you bastard!

[Hehe, now they'll be less wary of me. I won't make enemies, I won't pester them. As long as I behave well, I'll always be the good Jingyuan in my Uncle's eyes.]

[Once my uncle-master has no freedom left because of my master and the others, he'll remember how good I was to him~]

[It's a pity that my uncle is too lenient, always indulging my master and the others, and always saying things that make you want to lock him up. He's been playing the good boy for so long, shouldn't my uncle give him some reward?]

Meanwhile, everyone was talking about Yingxing, who seemed as happy as if she were in a dream.

Isn't this the kind of life she wanted—the kind of life where she could spend every day with Cheng Xiao, sharing life and growing together?

Besides Cheng Xiao, she also has several friends. Jing Liu's swordsmanship is admirable to her, Bai Heng's bravery and enthusiasm inspire her, Jing Yuan's intelligence and resourcefulness benefit her greatly, and the gentleness hidden beneath the noble figure of the Dragon Lord warms her heart.
