Yanmen Pass.
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi stood at the pass, looking north.
Long Chen and the Empress had been away for a long time, and there was no news at all. They were very worried.
"I don't know how my mother and the others are doing."
Di Luoxi waved her palms irritably, sweeping the snow off the wall stacks.
Emperor Lingyi was also very worried. There was no post station outside the customs, so the news could not be sent back like before. No one knew about Long Chen's condition.
Once entering the ice field, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no news at all.
"When the dead eunuch comes back, I will castrate him!"
Suddenly, Di Luoxi cursed angrily.
Di Lingyi echoed: "Yes, it should be beaten!"
Di Luoxi corrected Di Lingyi's statement and emphasized again: "It's not the time to beat, it's the time to castrate! Shi Jingxiang actually brought this dead eunuch!"
The paper could not contain the fire, the news that Shi Jingxiang arrived at Yanmen Pass and became the leader of the barbarians spread to Di Luoxi's ears.
After the two sisters learned about it, they were furious. If Long Chen was at Yanmen Pass, there would definitely be a fierce battle.
Di Lingyi said calmly: "If you castrate him, you won't have to play..."
Outside the pass, a group of people slowly approached the pass. The sentry on the tower immediately shouted: "Someone is approaching the pass!"
When Di Luoxi heard it, she immediately flew up to the tower, took out her telescope and looked outside the pass.
In the camera, Di Luoxi saw Ziyun, Miaoyin, and Mo Lin pulling a stretcher back.
"problem occurs!"
Di Luoxi shouted, Di Lingyi had already flown out of the pass, Di Luoxi also flew down from the tower and ran towards the pass.
The general on duty was Wu Chuchu. When she saw the two princesses running out, she immediately ordered a thousand soldiers and horses to leave.
Emperor Lingyi rushed outside the pass, and Ziyun and the others also saw the two sisters.
"Where's the Queen Mother? Where's Long Chen?"
Emperor Lingyi rushed forward and saw Gan Xin lying on a stretcher. The injury on his neck looked very serious. He immediately asked the empress and Long Chen how they were doing.
Di Luoxi arrived soon after, and seeing Gan Xin's injury, he immediately asked Master Ziyun: "Auntie, where are the Queen Mother and Long Chen?"
They were most afraid that Long Chen and the Empress would die in battle to protect them...
This is the worst case scenario.
Master Ziyun said: "Princess, don't worry. We encountered an attack on the ice field. Gan Xin and Miao Yin were injured. In order not to drag the Holy One down, we came back first."
"The Holy Lord and King Wu must be fine. Their cultivation is high, so they must be fine."
Master Ziyun didn't know whether something was wrong or not. She said this to comfort the two princesses.
Di Luoxi asked: "Where did you separate?"
Mo Lin said: "We separated not far from the snow-capped mountains. Li Chengdao led people to ambush there. We repelled Li Chengdao's ambush, but at night Guitai sent a fierce assassin. The assassin could summon wolves, and Gan Xin was seriously injured. , Miaoyin was also injured."
"Princess, don't worry. Both the Holy Lord and King Wu are fine. The assassin is very strange, but his cultivation is average. He can't hurt the Holy Lord and King Wu."
Mo Lin was also comforting the two princesses, but also out of shame.
The four of them originally went to help, but turned out to be a burden and returned to Yanmen Pass first.
Master Ziyun said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will be protected by King Wu, nothing will happen to you."
Wu Chuchu rushed over with his troops and was shocked when he saw Gan Xin, who was seriously injured.
After asking Long Chen and the Empress if they were okay, Wu Chuchu felt more at ease.
"Princess, please go back to the customs first. Gan Xin's injury is very serious."
Wu Chuchu was relatively calm, and Master Ziyun also said: "Go back first, Your Majesty must be fine."
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi looked to the northwest and walked back helplessly.
After returning to Yanmen Pass, Gan Xin was hung up at the pass and immediately sent back to the room for treatment.
Di Luoxi stood at the pass, feeling very agitated and restless.
"I want to go out and look for my mother."
Di Luoxi stood up and Di Lingyi said: "No, our mission is to guard Yanmen Pass and we are not allowed to leave without permission!"
Di Luoxi walked around anxiously and said: "But Gan Xin was injured like that because he just encountered an assassin. The ghost fetus obviously has a back-up plan. The queen mother and the dead eunuch are definitely in danger."
Emperor Lingyi advised: "You know that the ghost fetus has a back-up plan, so you should guard the gate and not run around!"
"If we lose the pass, the queen mother will be blocked outside the pass."
Di Luoxi was very upset. She also knew that she could not leave the seclusion, but she was very upset.
"I'm going to train!"
Di Luoxi couldn't bear it anymore and went out to the barracks.
Gan Xin returned to the city seriously injured, but the empress and Long Chen were nowhere to be seen. People who knew the news were talking privately, saying that the empress and Long Chen died in battle outside the pass.
Long Chen and the Empress were the backbone of the army. Since the two of them did not come back, rumors started to spread immediately, with all kinds of versions.
Some people even dared to say that they had received the exact news that the Empress and Long Chen had died in the battle, and that the ghost tribe was about to counterattack.
Rumors quickly spread within the customs. For a time, rumors spread and the morale of the army was turbulent.
...
Two days later.
Long Chen and the empress appeared outside the pass. Dugu Jiali, who was on duty, saw them and shouted happily: "The Holy King Wu is back!"
The soldiers behind closed doors shouted excitedly when they saw it.
Emperor Lingyi heard the sound and immediately went up to the pass. When he saw the empress and Long Chen, he happily jumped out of the pass and rushed over.
The emperor's order flew over the snow and threw himself into the empress's arms.
"Mother, are you okay?"
