When Xiao Mu saw her, he immediately realized that the black shadow just now was her.

The whole person's aura suddenly changed, and he was filled with murderous intent, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

The little girl looked at Xiao Mu expressionlessly, neither crying nor making a fuss.

Xiao Mu walked towards her step by step, and every step seemed to be on ice, carrying endless murderous intent.

"Give her back to me." Xiao Mu's voice was icy cold, yet terrifyingly stubborn.

He believed Shen Lishu would not die

The little girl raised her head, with two dark holes in her eye sockets, "She's dead... reduced to ashes, lol!!!"

Xiao Mu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he pointed his sword at the little girl, saying stubbornly, "She won't die."

Just when he was about to touch the little girl, she suddenly turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared.

“Hahahaha…” A sharp laugh came from the air, “You will never find her…”

The laughter gradually faded away, leaving Xiao Mu and Lin Chen standing there blankly, their hearts filled with despair and helplessness.

The city of Goguryeo was in ruins and rivers of blood were flowing.

The stars in the sky also disappeared.

The whole world was silent as Lin Chen and Xiao Mu staggered out of the city gate.

The defending general waiting outside immediately realized something, dismounted and rushed over.

"General Lin! Master Xiao, why are there only two of you? Where is the king?"

Lin Chen opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say that Shen Lishu was dead.

Xiao Mu spoke first, "My Lord...I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You just need to do your own thing."

The general felt relieved, but he was still uneasy.

Lin Chen reacted instantly and realized that the news of the Qingli King’s accident must not be spread!

At least it can't be spread now.

Otherwise, with their current territory, the surrounding forces will swarm in!

He looked at Xiao Mu with gratitude and said, "Mr. Xiao, I have to go back to Phoenix City immediately. You..."

"I will stay here, fulfill my promise, and help Qingli recapture Fominzhou before leaving."

"Thank you!" Lin Chen looked at him deeply and rode away.

The sky gradually turned pale, Xiao Mu looked up for a while and murmured:

"Shen Lishu, I don't believe you are dead. Just like last time, you will suddenly appear somewhere again, right?

This time, I will wait for you, no matter if it is three years or five years, we will wait for you to come back..."

The noble young man, who had always been meticulous, grew a layer of short stubble on his chin overnight, and looked visibly haggard.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! So affectionate! I really did make the right choice in this son of destiny!"

Tiandao supported his chin and looked at Xiao Mu in the water mirror with shining eyes. He turned his head to look at Shen Lishu who was almost transparent on the lotus platform not far away.

Ugh……

Lin Chen traveled day and night, and after two horses died, he finally returned to Phoenix City.

He did not go to Qingli Villa, but went straight to the Phoenix City Palace.

"Please inform the Right Prime Minister that General Lin wants to see you!"

Zhou Lihua was a little puzzled. Didn’t he go out with Li’er?

"Let him in."

As a professor of history, Zhou Lihua has been serving as the right prime minister in Phoenix City in recent years, in charge of the compilation of laws.

Lin Chen stumbled into the inner hall and knelt down with a plop.

"Please ask the Right Prime Minister to dismiss the attendants. I have something important to report."

Zhou Lihua paused when she heard this, leaving a blob of ink on the paper, and waved her hand with a pale face.

"You all get down."

The officials bowed and left one by one, and soon they were the only two left in the room.

The silent charcoal fire suddenly burst into sparks, filling the room with warmth.

But Zhou Lihua felt icy cold all over and she has been feeling uneasy for the past few days.

Until I saw Lin Chen like this, my guess reached its peak.

Zhou Lihua heard her own unusually hoarse voice, "Li'er...did something happen?"

Lin Chen fell to the ground with a thud, and the man's tears that had been held back for several days finally fell.

"Master...died together with the Ghost King in Gaogu City!

Unfortunately, Xiao Man was also killed by the Ghost King. The two of them... turned to ashes. I am so incompetent that I can't even find a trace of their ashes!"

boom! !

The chair made a loud noise and Zhou Lihua fell to the ground.

Her face was pale, tears were streaming down her face, and her red eyes were fixed on Lin Chen.

"Something really happened to Li'er... How could this happen? Doesn't she have so many high-tech weapons?"

After saying this, Zhou Lihua collapsed to the ground, crying until she almost fainted, her body shaking constantly.

"I am really incompetent and failed to protect my master!" Lin Chen also cried.

The strong man didn't cry when he was bleeding and sweating and had his arm broken, but now he couldn't stop crying.

The sobbing sound was heard in the silent hall until both of them fainted and were discovered by Shen Feng who came rushing over.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Lihua slowly woke up, only to feel a splitting headache.

"Right Prime Minister, you finally woke up!" The maid beside him cried with joy.

Zhou Lihua looked around and found herself in the bedroom.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Zhou Lihua said in a hoarse voice.

"It has been two days. The imperial physician said that you were too sad and needed to be well recuperated." The maid replied.

Zhou Lihua was confused. Where was Lin Chen?

She struggled to get up, but fell back onto the couch due to her weakness.

"Right Prime Minister, please don't move. You are still very weak." The maid hurriedly supported her.

Zhou Lihua waved her hand, signaling the maid to leave. She closed her eyes, recalled how Li'er looked when she first came home, and tears welled up again.

Her Li'er, such a cute little girl

I don't know when she has grown into a capable young lady.

But, "I would rather you never grew up and still be that child who acts like a spoiled child around us, wuwuwu..."

The whimpering sound sounded again, and Shen Feng came in at this time.

After losing his daughter in middle age, he grew a lot of white hair overnight and looked haggard.

He slowly pulled Zhou Lihua into his arms, gently stroking her back and comforting her silently.

After a long time, Zhou Lihua fell into a deep sleep again.

Shen Feng gently put her into the quilt, turned around and wiped away her tears, and was a man of integrity.

"Reality doesn't allow us to be weak, and the news about Li'er must not be spread.

Otherwise, the Qingli Kingdom that she has worked so hard to build for many years will be completely devoured!"

Shen Feng stepped out of the room and summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter.

At the same time, recall all the troops and city lords outside and defend the existing city.

Now that Li'er is away, he must protect the country for her!

"We have been practicing these years. We can fly those cannons and planes. We will never let anyone bully us."

Shen Feng, who had always loved farming, quickly took over the political affairs of Qingli Kingdom.

As the left prime minister, Shen Xingshu also had the right to know. Apart from him, no one else knew the news of Shen Lishu's death.

On the surface, everything seems to be the same in Qingli Kingdom, but there is a faint sense of impending storm inside.

Half a month later, Xiao Mu sent news that the rebellion in Fominzhou had been suppressed and he would immediately set off back to Wusu City.

Another ten days passed, and Prince Jing's army launched a surprise attack on the capital, and then turned their attention to several neighboring cities.

The Qingli Kingdom was short of troops and unable to resist. Shen Hong had no choice but to put on armor and go into battle, but he met a Taoist priest in white.

He stared at the man closely. Although he was a cultivator, he gave a completely different impression from Li'er.

She was dressed in a pure white dress, with a compassionate look on her face, yet there was a sense of eeriness lingering around her.

"Who are you? Why would a cultivator want to get involved in a fight between mortals?"

"Hahahaha!" The female Taoist priest laughed, "Aren't you embarrassed to say that?

We each serve our own masters, so why so many high-sounding words? "

"Go with your dead daughter!"

what!

Shen Hong knew nothing about Shen Lishu, and just as he was about to ask more questions, he was hit by a whisk.

He was also a brave and capable general when he was young, but he was unexpectedly defeated in one blow.

"Quick! Get ready for defense!"

I can only go back and ask about Shen Lishu's matter.

Prince Jing's army has women in white who are extremely brave.

The morale of the Qingli Kingdom was greatly damaged by Shen Hong's injury, and the country itself was short of troops.

So gradually they are in a weak position.

The city gate was quickly breached, and Prince Jing's army rushed in and killed anyone they saw.

The Taoist priest in white floated in the air and looked at Shen Hong with mockery.

Shen Hong, while seriously injured, chopped down a soldier, and could not bring himself to say "retreat".

Behind them are the people of the entire city!

These people have been through war for years and now they can finally live a few days in peace.

What are these soldiers fighting for on the front lines?

It just means that the people and family behind me can be safe and happy.

So, they can't retreat!

"Soldiers! Think about our family and friends behind us, kill!!!"
