Fairy, please let me explain

Chapter 654 Commitment
After he finished speaking, there was no thunderous shouting in the parade ground. Instead, there was deathly silence and the doubtful looks of the soldiers below.

Li Junwu walked down the martial arts stage in silence, the expression on his beautiful face was still as stern as before, but the hand holding the sword at his waist was very tight.

The silence around her was like falling into the deep sea, weaving an invisible hand to suddenly grab her heart. The eyes on the field seemed to be mocking her incompetence despite trying her best.

Li Junwu walked very slowly.

Even though she felt a burning pain in her meridians, she still walked slowly. She wanted to hear the silence around her ears being broken, even if it was just a few sporadic shouts.

But unfortunately, until she walked through the long military formation and until he walked out of the parade ground gate, the soldiers of the Second Town inside remained silent.

"Rumble--"

As the gate to the training ground closed with a dull thud, Li Junwu paused, and a trickle of blood finally flowed out from the corner of his lips.

She raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her lips. She stared at the red between her fingers with her eyelids drooped for a few breaths. A trace of self-mockery flashed across her beautiful and stern face. She looked up at the blue sky outside the sky:
"What a failed pre-war speech."

"To be fair, it's not a complete failure."

"."

Li Junwu immediately looked in the direction where the voice came from, a flash of dependence flashed across his slender eyes, but he suppressed this emotion and whispered:
"Are you trying to comfort me?"

"No."

Xu Yuan leaned forward from the courtyard wall, walked slowly to her, handed her a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "It's just a statement of fact. There are cases where the generals say a few words on the stage and the soldiers below scream like chicken blood, but it doesn't apply to you."

Li Junwu took the handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, then asked:
“Why not?”

"How can you compare your head with those generals who have returned to the army? They have built up their prestige through victory after victory."

"It seems that you are indeed not here to comfort me."

"I, Xu Changtian, never lie to women."

"Humph."

"."

Xu Yuan moved his eyes away from the scarlet-stained brocade handkerchief and walked towards the Military Hall:
"But your speech was still useful. At least it stabilized the morale of the army. If you stabilized it before your oath was broken, no one would question the legitimacy of your behavior as a dandy princess."

Li Junwu quickly followed him, walking side by side with him, surrounded by the green and scorching heat of summer:

"What about those possible traitors?"

"They don't dare to make trouble at this time."

Xu Yuan thought for a moment, then looked back and said, "No matter how dissolute you are, you are still the princess of Zhenxi Prefecture. You have already made such an oath with your life. Anyone who dares to ridicule you at this time will surely become the target of public criticism."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan sighed again:
"The military train below was silent just now, probably because the oath you promised was too outrageous, so outrageous that they didn't react for a while. After all, your father and Wu Chenghou probably wouldn't dare to promise that kind of oath."

"Hey"

Li Junwu smiled slyly: "It seems that this girl is really powerful."

"boom!"

Xu Yuan slapped the woman on the back of her armor, causing her to stagger. He cursed angrily:

"I'm trying to seduce you, but you just take it as a compliment, right?"

Li Junwu staggered a few steps and half-knelt on the lawn in front of him. His beautiful features frowned in pain. He gritted his teeth and glared back:
"Xu Changtian, I am a wounded soldier now, and besides saying this, how can I stabilize the morale of the troops?!"

Xu Yuan glanced at her, ignored her, and walked forward past her.

Li Junwu gritted his teeth, endured the pain and climbed up from the ground. His armor made a sound of friction. He quickly walked behind him, sneered and slapped him on the back of the head.

Xu Yuan didn't even look at her, he ducked his head and at the same time raised his hand to grab her wrist which was wrapped in the wrist armor, and with a little force, he directly buckled it behind her back. The stabbing pain in her meridians continued, Li Junwu gritted her teeth and wanted to curse and struggle, but the voice from behind suddenly interrupted her movements:

"Li Junwu, if you die, the sect's goal will be half achieved, understand?"

After saying that, Xu Yuan stretched out his hand and Li Junwu leaned forward a few steps to steady his body. He gritted his teeth and looked back at the man behind him.

Under the cascading sunlight,

The man just looked at her calmly, his eyes as deep and peaceful as a deep pool.

After a while,
Li Junwu curled his lips and complained:
"Now that the words have been spoken, what's the point of dwelling on it?"

When they reached the gate of the Military Hall, Xu Yuan ignored her and said, "I'm afraid you'll lose. I ...

“The purpose of making a promise is to make others believe it and achieve the goal. Whether or not to fulfill the promise is not important.”

Hearing this, Li Junwu subconsciously paused for a moment.

Xu Yuan noticed the other party's little action, but did not stop talking and walked into the Military Hall first.

The upturned eaves blocked half of the sunlight entering the hall. Xu Yuan stood in the shadows, looking back and commanding:
"Now that the army is determined, all matters concerning the military formation will be handed over to Commander Jin. You only need to honestly operate the city defense formation in the military hall to assist, and leave the rest to me."

Bathed in the sunshine outside, Li Junwu raised his hand to play with the short hair beside his ear, and said with his eyes tilted:

"But I am planning to use this opportunity to establish my authority. Think about it, Changtian. If I can fulfill this promise, my previous reputation will be completely reversed."

"."

Xu Yuan stared at her for a few breaths, and suddenly came close to her in an instant.

Before Li Junwu could react, Xu Yuan reached his hand into the gap between her armor.

When Li Junwu felt the other person's palm touching her skin, her eyes widened instantly, but when Xu Yuan pulled his bloody hand out from under her armor and raised it in front of her, her eyes unconsciously avoided it.

Fate-defying blood therapy.

"Follow."

Xu Yuan snorted, shook off the blood on his hands, and walked into the inner hall, saying softly:
"From the beginning to the end, I only used the military formation and the city defense formation as auxiliary. It is enough to have Commander Jin gather the 'formation soldiers' to raid the formation. The most critical point to break the deadlock is the internal contradictions of the six saints outside. If they dare to show up together, I am 70% sure that they will erupt into a civil war.

"So, don't think about these things for now."

When she finished speaking, Xu Yuan noticed that Li Junwu was still standing outside. He looked at her helplessly and promised:

"If possible, I will try my best to ensure that your promise can be fulfilled. After all, if you can successfully inherit Zhenxi Mansion, it will save me a lot of trouble."

"."

Hearing this, Li Junwu snorted and laughed and took a step forward.

But when he turned around with a smile,

She looked at his back, but her eyes revealed an indescribable complexity.

[The purpose of making a promise is to make others believe in it and achieve the goal. Whether or not to fulfill the promise is actually not important]

Have you forgotten what you just said?

and,

It would be fine if he cheated on others, but he actually thought of cheating on her.

If he was really so confident in dealing with the Six Saints, he wouldn't have explained so much to her.
