These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

Ran Xinxue nodded. "So, I'll wait here for you to come back, wait for you to come back... and we'll have another good fight. I guess our relationship will be different then, right? After all, that lecherous guy will definitely not let go of the delicious food right in front of him."

He said it very softly so that no one else could hear him.

Mu Xitong's cheeks flushed slightly, clearly thinking of something. She glanced almost imperceptibly at the boy next to her, who was already fidgeting.

She said, "There might not be that opportunity again."

Ran Xinxue shook her head. "If you don't come back, I'll devour this little lecher by myself and leave nothing for anyone else. Go cry in the underworld, I don't care if you come back or not."

Mu Xitong was both angry and amused.

After a while, he calmed down and said, "Okay, if I come back, don't cry."

"Trying to scare me? Try coming back and see what happens."

"it is good."

Having said what needed to be said, all that's left is to move forward.

When Wei Tu led Mu Xitong into the array of the teleportation stone tablet.

This time, Ran Xinxue personally activated the formation.

She looked at the two people in front of her, and as she infused them with her energy, light began to radiate.

She uttered her last words just before the two disappeared into the light.

"Being alive is the best thing."

"..." PS: It feels like it's been a while since I've updated twice, it's so annoying. I was thinking of updating twice tonight, but my throat is inflamed again. I'm going to take a nap. If I can wake up soon, I'll try to write another chapter for everyone.

59. Wei An, disciple of the Yuanjian Sect

He Ting never expected that she would not only end up on a mountain of thieves, but also on a pirate ship.

She spent the entire day in this not-so-luxurious house, which certainly couldn't compare to the one in Beiyou City.

It wasn't that she didn't want to leave, but that she simply couldn't leave. Right now, her energy was completely blocked, leaving her like a cripple. She had no idea what was happening outside, or if the brothers who came to North Lion Mountain were in even worse shape than she was. At least she was still alive.

What exactly does this girl want to do?

All sorts of thoughts were mixed in He Ting's mind. She didn't even know when Bai Youwei had made the connection with Bei Shishan. Could it really have been just before the battle?

Putting aside any possibility of having amazing communication skills, the likelihood of that is extremely slim.

They negotiated before the battle, and then not long after, they sent people up the mountain?

That's absolutely wrong.

What exactly is she planning to do? Is she trying to harm Beiyou City?

He Ting thought about it for a long time.

It was nighttime by the time the door was pushed open again.

Bai Youwei entered again. She calmly walked up to me, pulled up a chair, and sat down.

"Sister He, how are you feeling?"

He Ting bit her lip, then looked at the beautiful girl, "I'm fine... but what exactly do you want?"

Bai Youwei smiled and said, "You still haven't figured it out after all this time?"

"What do you want to understand? Do you want to understand why Lord Tuoba gave you a chance, but you chose to betray him?"

Bai Youwei laughed, "You did think of something... but not everything. How should I put it, from the moment we left Beiyou City, we never had the chance to go back."

"why?"

He Ting asked in confusion.

Bai Youwei said softly, "Why do you think Tuoba Rouran was willing to entrust this matter to me, and why did they send me their men, but they refused to reveal any purpose or details of this siege to others, even when we came for Beishi Mountain? Why?"

"For the sake of... secrecy, to prevent another traitor from within, right?"

He Ting tentatively asked.

Bai Youwei shook her head. "Tuoba Rouran is ambitious but incompetent, extremely cunning and treacherous. His apparent honesty and hospitality are just a facade. He only wants to use me, an outsider, to get rid of his former sworn brothers. When I return, he can put on a show of kindness and then behead all of us. On the one hand, he will resolve the hidden danger in Beishi Mountain, and on the other hand, he will fulfill his righteous cause."

He Ting couldn't believe it. "But...we're not 100% sure we can win, are we? What if we lose?"

Bai Youwei said softly, "Then it's very simple. You can tell how wary he is of me just by how much he values his position as the city lord of Beiyou City. In fact, he doesn't trust me at all. If we fail, it won't matter much whether I die on the spot or escape back. He can deal with me according to military law, or if there are many opponents, he can just kick me out. His position as city lord won't be affected. So when I accepted this mission, I was already prepared not to go back."

He Ting was taken aback. "If that's the case... why did you still take on this mission?"

Bai Youwei thought for a moment, "I'm waiting for an opportunity."

"What opportunity?"

"An opportunity to take control of your own destiny."

"What exactly do you want to do!"

Bai Youwei smiled and said, "You already know what I want to do. Are you waiting for me to offer you something in return to invite you to join me?"

He Ting's face turned pale. She was a smart woman and not foolish enough to be so loyal to Bei You City as to give her life.

She asked, "When did you and Xiao Ziyi first get in touch?"

Bai Youwei said with a smile, "I started preparing before I even left the city. I gave him a letter."

"You already knew him?"

"That's not the case. I have my own methods. Although I'm opening up to you now, I won't tell you all my secrets. Now is the time for you to prepare."

He Ting stared intently at Bai Youwei.

"Why should I believe what you say? So far, all I've seen is your betrayal. As for whether Tuoba Rouran really had such intentions, there's not a single piece of evidence, is there?"

Bai Youwei shook her head. "Even if my analysis isn't important, you can still think about what's best for your own future. After all, in Beiyou City... you're just marginal figures who are dispensable."

After a long silence, He Ting finally looked at Bai Youwei. This time, Bai Youwei could see a faint flame burning in He Ting's eyes. Even if it was just a flame, it was enough.

What are you planning to do?

Bai Youwei stood up. "You'll find out soon enough. Get some rest tonight. Tomorrow... you won't have a chance to rest."

He Ting didn't sleep well at all that night. She felt that she had made the choice out of necessity, but if things really went the right way, it didn't seem like there would be any problem with her becoming a speculator.

But... how will things actually turn out?

the next day.

North Lion Mountain is engulfed in flames.

The large and imposing army galloped down from the North Lion Mountain.

It seemed like a triumphant return, like a victorious army returning home.

On the same day, news was received in Beiyou City.

"A fire has broken out on North Lion Mountain, and Bai Youwei and the others are rushing back to North Nether City!"

Xu Hao delivered the latest intelligence to Tuoba Rouran, who was drinking.

Tuoba Rouran laughed heartily, "She really can do it... she's got some skills."

Xu Hao looked at Tuoba Rouran, "So what should we do next?"

Tuoba Rouran glanced at Xu Hao.

"Are the personnel ready?"

Xu Hao nodded. "We've been keeping them on standby these past few days, just waiting for the city lord's order... Is it at this time?"

Tuoba Rouran nodded. "Of course, this woman is smarter than you think. If we delay any longer, she'll notice something amiss. The longer we wait, the more likely things will go wrong. So the best way is to let them into the city and trap them like turtles in a jar. The charge... just say they disobeyed orders, rashly annihilated the Northern Lion Mountain, and killed my sworn brother..."

Xu Hao smiled and nodded, "The city lord's strategy is truly brilliant."

"Stop flattering them, hurry up and gather the men. They'll be back tomorrow..."

All the undercurrents seemed to be surging that night.

On the evening of the third day, the setting sun cast its last rays.

The sky was covered in orange-red clouds, like a burning horizon.

On the city wall.

Tuoba Rouran stood with his hands behind his back at the highest point, gazing into the distance at the rising dust.

A fighting spirit that had been dormant for a long time suddenly surged within him; the feeling of personally severing a head... was indescribably wonderful.

He hoped that he had personally cut off the beautiful woman's head. Although she was indeed very beautiful, she was also very intelligent, and intelligence meant danger. To keep her by one's side because of her beauty, thinking that one could completely control her, would be the most foolish thing to do.

He won't leave such a loose end.

The streets below were quiet, and even the walls behind the city gates were filled with countless men armed with weapons.

We're just waiting for them to arrive...

And they did indeed get closer and closer, kicking up clouds of dust.

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves, like people eagerly returning home, was so touching... but they had no idea what awaited them.

Tuoba Rouran smiled as he watched them approach, and said loudly.

"Miss Bai, congratulations on your triumphant return!"

But the response from Tuoba Rouran was not the woman's smile as she stopped her horse.

But...

"Boom!"

"Dong dong!"

The sound of horses' hooves did not stop; instead, it became even faster.
