"Mm!"
Ziyan nodded gently.
The two then arrived at the reception room next door. As soon as they entered, they saw that a large table in the room was already filled with some food.
Since returning in the afternoon, the two had locked themselves in their room. They slept deeply until late at night.
During their sleep, they didn't feel particularly hungry, but at this moment, when Ziyan's gaze fell upon the decent food, she immediately felt her stomach rumble with hunger.
Naturally, what this young couple wanted to do next was to enjoy the delicious food on the table heartily.
Prince appeared calm and collected, behaving like a gentleman. However, as for Princess Ziyan, she was not so restrained; when she was hungry, she didn't care much about her image—she ate and drank freely as she pleased.
After about half an hour, the two were finally full and satisfied.
Most importantly, Ziyan was much more anxious than her Demonic Husband. At this moment, she couldn't wait to rush to the top of the mountain and assist in the battle.
Today was truly a chance to witness a grand and unprecedented battle against the Python! Who wouldn't be excited?
Since that year when she first encountered Little Python at the location of the first treasure, Ziyan had become good friends with both her Demonic Husband and Little Python.
Now, by a stroke of luck, Little Python had seemingly recruited the Purple Python, which guarded the second treasure. The Purple Python was much larger and stronger than Little Python. Its deep purple color was so striking that anyone who saw it would feel a chill of fear.
However, after having Little Python as an intermediary, Ziyan had visited the waterfall several times to play and have fun with them by using a Jade Flute made of the same material as her Future Husband's to play the same summoning tune.
After those encounters, the Purple Python developed an inexplicable sense of trust towards Ziyan.
If it weren't for this trust, Ziyan would never have dared to bring it all the way from Chu County to the border of Nanchu Kingdom to help save Nanchu Kingdom.
On this journey, Ziyan had seriously calculated; along the way, there were no fewer than dozens of ordinary people who had fainted from being frightened by the Purple Python.
Fortunately, the Purple Python did not actively seek trouble, possibly because it was accompanied by the Little Python throughout the journey!
In any case, the Purple Python had not harmed a single innocent person along the way. The so-called greatest damage it caused—at most—was eating some small animals like wild chickens, rodents, and rabbits. These small creatures were typically the main food source for pythons!
If Ziyan claimed that she had no vigilance or worry at all in her heart at the beginning, that would definitely be a lie.
At first, when she led them out and started on the road, her heart was filled with fear and unease!
It wasn't until they safely arrived in Peiling County after such a long time that Ziyan's originally anxious heart finally calmed down a bit. It seemed that this Purple Python was quite intelligent, far from the clumsy creature she had imagined!
Before long, Ziyan rode out of the city again on a fine horse with her Demonic Husband, heading straight to the old place.
...
The old place.
At this time, more people had gathered than the previous night.
This was the second batch of martial artists personally brought by Ziyan from Chucheng City.
They had long heard about the successful victories in the previous two wheel battles commanded by Ziyan. Some seniors who had close ties with Qi Yu and the two instructors from the same courtyard could no longer contain their strong curiosity and insisted on being brought along to observe.
At this moment, when these people saw Ziyan and Ling Yuxuan appear, they couldn't help but excitedly surround the two.
Several impatient seniors directly asked, "Purple Gate Master, when will the grand show begin?"
Ziyan speculated in her heart: It seems that these people arrived here early; otherwise, why would they all be so eager?
In the next moment, Ziyan did not respond. She turned her gaze to her Demonic Husband. At the same time, both of them almost simultaneously took out a green Jade Flute from their respective arms.
Because today's battle would undoubtedly be very shocking and brutal, Ziyan decided to command this beastly battle together with her Demonic Husband.
Instantly, Ling Yuxuan smiled calmly as he met the hopeful gaze of his Future Wife, extending his large hand. Ziyan intuitively grasped his hand.
However, just before they were about to leap, Ziyan suddenly took out a dozen small medicine pouches resembling little sachets from her arms and said, "If you want to observe the battle up close, remember to tie these around your ankles. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
Thus, both of them simultaneously used their lightness skills and flew towards the enemy camp, sometimes stepping on various cliffs and sometimes lightly tapping on ancient tree branches. Their speed was so fast that all they could hear was the roaring wind in their ears...
After about half a quarter of an hour, they reached their destination—a small low slope outside the enemy camp.
Both of them held their Jade Flute tightly and began to play. At this late hour, it was very quiet...
As the melodious music gradually began to resonate, disturbances and various strange sounds started to emerge from the surrounding forests and cliffs.
One second, two seconds, three seconds... Approaching fifteen or sixteen seconds, two long figures appeared side by side in the dim night, resembling huge serpentine shapes crawling along.
It was evident that these were the Purple Python and Little Python.
The two pythons paused slightly at the position below Ziyan and Ling Yuxuan, glanced towards them, and flicked their red tongues as if greeting their masters.
Almost simultaneously, more similar creatures appeared from all directions, just like the two pythons.
Ziyan certainly knew that this southern region and the Southwest area were abundant with such animals. On the day she set out from Chu County, she had instructed her most trusted Confidants to continuously sprinkle a special spice along the way. This spice was a kind of alluring powder that attracted various wild beasts, which she had concocted with the help of Old Man Mo according to a formula from the book titled Jianghu Pharmacopoeia.
In the dark night, amidst the hazy surroundings, Ziyan seemed to see countless snakes, both large and small, crawling all over the ground. If one did not look closely, they would not have realized how many there were.
Initially, Ziyan had been secretly doubting whether these medicinal powders were effective. Who would have thought that this scene might have summoned all the snakes from Chu County and the Southwest region?
That was not all; what was crucial was that these snakes seemed willing to follow and obey Little Python and Purple Python.
Now, with such a formidable army, it seemed that even if Ziyan wanted to conquer the entire Yunqi Kingdom in the future, it would not be a problem!
Because the Yunqi Kingdom was located in the far Southwest, an area that essentially belonged to the subtropical region. This type of region was home to many fierce serpentine beasts.
As long as Ziyan could control these animals, it would be equivalent to having an army of hundreds of thousands!
Thinking of this, Ziyan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
As the music continued to resonate across the plain, more and more exotic beasts gathered from all directions, all making their way toward the military camp of Yunqi Kingdom.
At the camp of Yunqi Kingdom, the soldiers on night watch felt that it was already quite late and were about to relax their nerves a bit.
Suddenly, the awake soldiers heard a melodious flute sound. They did not find this music strange, as it was common for some soldiers to play music when they were bored or longing for home, using it as a way to relieve or express their feelings.
Just as they were indifferent to this music, even finding it somewhat pleasant, they suddenly felt an inexplicable restlessness from all directions. It made them feel strange and uneasy.
Suddenly, countless dark shapes appeared in the night like a tide surging toward the camp with unstoppable momentum.
500 meters, 200 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters, 10 meters, 3 meters, 1 meter…
When they finally saw what was approaching, some were left dumbfounded in shock, others fainted on the spot from fear, and some were so terrified that they died right there…
In an instant, a sound more piercing than the previous two nights erupted from the enemy camp, akin to the wails of ghosts and wolves, coming in wave after wave, echoing across the entire plain.
Although the veterans standing atop the high mountains could not fully see the scene below, they could tell from the cries and mournful sounds that something earth-shattering and terrifying was happening.
Thus, these veterans, who had always regarded life and death lightly, hurriedly divided the small medicine packs left by Ziyan among themselves and tied them to their legs.
Then, one by one, they disregarded everything and leaped toward the enemy camp.
When they arrived at the enemy military camp, they also began to attack the 'drowned rats'—those disorganized troops who were scared out of their wits by the Beast Legion and were in complete chaos.
At the same time, thousands of beasts were rampaging through the Yunqi Kingdom military camp, wreaking havoc on all the soldiers.
Meanwhile, the elite members led by Wu Xiang and Li Yu were swiftly cutting down enemies as if slicing through watermelons.
After all, the enemy army was said to number in the hundreds of thousands! Ziyan had long been prepared; he primarily hoped that his elite troops would infiltrate the enemy ranks with a strategy rather than just mindlessly killing.
Therefore, timing was crucial. After about a quarter of an hour, just before the enemy forces rallied to counterattack, Ling Yuxuan and Ziyan played the retreat signal on their flutes.
Following this, their personnel withdrew completely, and most of the intelligent beasts also retreated.
However, animals are ultimately animals; some of them remained in battle and were killed by those fierce and responsive soldiers.
