Chapter 18 - Northwest Snow Wolf Cavalry
"Rise!"Almost at the same time the girls backed off, Lin Wan"er shouted as she raised her arms with all the strength she could muster.
"Boom!"
In the next moment, a scene that left the six maidservants dumbstruck appeared. After Lin Wan"er shouted out the word "Arise," that half a person tall black wine jar was actually lifted out of the bed by the latter, lifting it high up into the air!
Deep in their hearts, the girls were shocked at the power that Lin Wan"er had displayed. They did not know that the one who was truly shocked was Lin Wan"er, who stared at the wine vat, unmoving. Xiang Yun was like a big tree with his mouth wide open in shock.
"How is this possible!" Lin Wan"er had never thought that she would be able to lift the entire wine vat with such explosive force. She still hadn"t been able to pull the crown prince out of the vat.
Just as Lin Wan"er felt her arms go weak and her stamina run out, Xiang Yun, who had been greedily drinking the last drop of wine at the bottom of the wine vat, licked it clean and let out a loud burp!
"Ugh …"
In the next moment, Xiang Yun"s hands and feet, which had been pressed tightly against the wine vat, relaxed! His entire being was like an insect that had shed its sh.e.l.l, leaving the wine vat behind!
"Boom!"With a loud bang, the wine vat heavily smashed onto the bed, causing everyone"s feet to go numb. Xiang Yun was finally lifted out of the wine vat!
The girls hurriedly lifted Xiang Yun onto a gums in the room, laying him flat on his back. Previously, it had been dimly lit in the wine vat and the girls had not been able to see him clearly. Now that Xiang Yun had been lifted out, they could see him clearly.
At this moment, Xiang Yun"s cheeks and arms were completely red. Moreover, it was not just a normal shade of red. It was actually as red as blood, an extremely shocking color.
And while his entire body was currently soaked by the wine, the latter"s body was boiling hot. Even through his clothes, the girls could feel that Xiang Yun"s body was as hot as a red-hot iron.
What caused the girls the most embarra.s.sment was that even though Xiang Yun"s lower half was separated from the rest of his clothes, it was still like an expensive flag that unsteadily stood tall, causing the maidservants" hearts to beat like drums as they gazed upon it. They were shy and curious at the same time, stealing glances at it from time to time before shyly turning their heads away.
At this moment, Lin Wan"er displayed her usual calmness and decisiveness as she hurriedly ordered one of the maidservants, "Xiao Yun, go get a doctor from the residence. The Crown Prince is quite drunk. We have to clear his wine."
Hearing this, the maidservant hurriedly went to find the family"s doctor, while Lin Wan"er and the other maidservants took off Xiang Yun"s wet clothes and used a thin layer of ice silk to cover his body.
When Lin Wan"er took off Xiang Yun"s clothes, besides feeling a tinge of shyness, she was even more shocked. Xiang Yun"s face and limbs were not the only things she wanted, his entire body was actually blood-red like amber.
Moreover, the latter"s abdomen swelled up like a ball. It was obvious that it was filled with too many things!
Although Lin Wan"er had seen Xiang Yun drunk countless times, she had never seen anything like this. She did not know how much wine Xiang Yun had drunk to be drunk to such an extent.He wanted to ask, however, no matter how they called out, Xiang Yun seemed to have gone insane, not reacting at all. If it were not for the fact that the tip of his nose was still snuffling evenly and his face still revealed the satisfied smile that he had usually displayed on the bed of the number one lady of the Phoenix Pavilion, they would all have been worried that Xiang Yun would have died suddenly.
Helpless, Lin Wan"er could only lead the maidservants to fan her, wipe her body clean, and cool Xiang Yun"s body as it burned.Xiang Yun"s body was currently like a huge furnace, as hot as it could be. The wet towels were wiped a few times on his body, and were quickly evaporated dry. The girls had no choice but to bring him a basin of water, constantly wetting the towels to cool him down!
"Aiya, the Crown Prince is smoking!"
Just as the girls were busy, a maidservant suddenly shouted out!
When the other maidservants heard this, they jumped in fright. They hurriedly raised their heads to look, only to discover that there were strands of black smoke rising from Xiang Yun"s body. It was as if they were black smoke coming out from the woodshed of a village!
"Oh my G.o.d!" [Is the crown prince on fire?!] A round-faced maid was so frightened that she fell on her b.u.t.t and cried out in alarm!
At this moment, only Lin Wan"er was able to maintain her composure, but she was still rather shocked. This was because the phenomenon that had occurred on Xiang Yun"s body was rather strange. How could a person who was perfectly fine be emitting black smoke?Lin Wan"er forced herself to calm down as she focused on Xiang Yun"s face. She discovered that the black smoke was coming from the pores of Xiang Yun"s body. The latter hurriedly moved closer to Xiang Yun and immediately smelled a pungent stench.
Lin Wan"er frowned slightly as she held her breath, before extending a hand towards Xiang Yun"s forehead. The temperature of the latter"s body had not increased at all. It appeared that this was definitely not a case of fire.
However, the situation in front of him was beyond Lin Wan"er"s capabilities. He quickly instructed the other maids, "Quick, go find Mister Liu and Housekeeper Zhang, tell them that the crown prince is in danger, get them to come here immediately!"
The maidservants also realized the seriousness of the situation. They hurriedly ran out the door to ask for Mister Liu and the Zhang family steward. These two had the highest cultivation levels in the crown prince"s residence. Only they could tell what had happened to the crown prince!
Time slowly pa.s.sed. Unknowingly, it was already noon of the third day!
On that day, the northwest part of the continent was wrapped in silver clothing as heavy snow flew everywhere. Snow filled the sky and scattered down, covering the entire world with a snow-white color.However, Silver City, the first city in the majestic Northwest Pa.s.s, had changed from its usual somber scene today. It was a festive atmosphere with lanterns and decorations.
Silver City was surrounded by four sides. Normally, when it was snowing heavily, no one would set out on their journey. However, today, when the four sides of Silver City were opened, there were large groups of people leading horse carriages, packing up goods and carrying long sails. They entered the majestic Silver City in a line.
At this moment, a train of soldiers was slowly rolling in from the east gate of Silver City. This train of soldiers had travelled for several miles in a row, and there were countless heavy iron boxes loaded in the middle of the carriages. On both sides of the carriage, golden armored guards rode long war horses with spears in hand.When the carriages nearby encountered them, they would immediately dodge and not dare to be the slightest bit negligent!
At this moment, on the head of this long dragon was a palanquin that was lifted by sixteen strong warriors. Inside the palanquin, the maids and attendants were lined up on both sides, and the chairs and tables were all prepared.
The two people sitting on both sides of the table were a young man and a young woman. The young man was in his early twenties, had a jade-like face, a golden crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, a red robe with four golden dragons on it, and an extraordinary might!The young woman beside him was slightly younger, and she looked to be around eighteen years old. She had almond eyes and a delicate nose, and her skin was creamy. She was a beautiful woman, and the latter had a curvy figure.
However, the woman"s appearance was indeed somewhat unexpected. Unlike an ordinary lady, whose dress was fluttering in the wind, she was actually wearing a green tight suit with her hair tied behind her head. Her pair of eyes were cold and sharp, and her eyebrows were slightly raised, giving people a cold feeling!In addition to the imposing aura of someone in a higher position on the latter"s body, it actually exuded a threatening aura, causing no one to dare to look directly at it!
At this moment, the woman looked at the curtain of the sedan chair in front of her and saw the majestic outline of Silver City. She sighed with a glint in her eyes, "Silver City is indeed the largest city in the northwest. Although it is not as magnificent as Dragon City, when it comes to its majesty and solemnity, Silver City is actually even more powerful!"
The youth nodded in agreement and said, "Seventh Sister, this is your first time in Silver City right? When I came here for the first time, I was also impressed by the majesty and grandeur of this city. No wonder Father always said that if the Silver City of the Northwest didn"t collapse, the Wind Cloud Kingdom would not be able to topple over."
Hearing this, the young man called Seventh Sister raised her eyebrows in disapproval, "Second brother, I admit that this Silver City is indeed grand and extraordinary, but I disagree with my father"s words."
"Oh, what do you think?" The young man looked at his Seventh Sister in surprise.
"No matter how magnificent Silver City is, it is only a city. Even if it is a city tens of thousands of feet high, so what? Without a strong army, how can we defend our Empire of Feng Yun?" "How dare he be so confident about the rise and fall of our Empire of Feng Yun?"
When the man heard this, he faintly smiled and said, "Seventh Sister, could it be that you"ve never heard of the Northwest Snow Wolf Cavalry?"
"Snow Wolf Cavalry, second brother, you"re talking about the Northwest Cavalry that pacified the chaos between the ten empires and killed the rebels of the million countries?"
"Besides this Snow Wolf Cavalry, who else dares to call out that name? However, the Northwest Snow Wolf Cavalry was able to rely on tens of thousands of people to forcefully suppress and kill one million strong soldiers of the ten nations, pacify the rebellion, and solve the crisis of our Windcloud Nation. That is the reason for today"s wind and cloud! "
The young man"s eyes were filled with a sorrowful look, as if he was thinking about how a cavalry unit with tens of thousands of men could slaughter their way through a million soldiers and behead their enemies as easily as slicing wheat.Looking at the young man"s sighing and the trace of reverence in his eyes, the woman sneered and said, "Second Brother, don"t you dare increase the morale of others and extinguish your own might."
Although I did not experience the rebellion of the ten nations back then, but I also know that my country was at war with the Great Chu at the time, both sides were severely injured, and the ten Subordinate Countries took advantage of the chaos to rebel and attack my country. Although they were entangled with a crowd of a million people, they were actually very strong and weak.
"If it were now, there would be no need for tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. However, if you were to give us the eight thousand Dragon City"s Flying Tiger Army, the combined armies of ten countries would collapse in less than ten days."
The young woman"s tone was filled with killing intent as she spoke, a dangerous glint of light flickering in her eyes. It was as though she had already slaughtered her way onto the battlefield, and was drinking the blood of her enemies to her heart"s content.
Upon hearing these words, the expression of the young man, who was originally indifferent with a smile on his face, suddenly changed drastically. He hurriedly gestured at the lady to keep quiet before reprimanding in a low voice, "Seventh Sister, do not speak nonsense. This is Silver City, not Dragon City.
Not a place where you and I can do whatever we want! "Seeing how nervous the man was, the woman didn"t hold back her words. Instead, the mockery on her face became even stronger as she said in a mocking tone, "Second brother, you"re the current crown prince and can be considered the future ruler of our Wind Cloud Country. Why are you so cowardly?"
"This place is a few miles away from Silver City. I just casually said a few words, so what? Don"t tell me our Uncle War G.o.d also had the Ear of the Zephyr? He could hear what we were saying?"
This young man was the current crown prince of the Wind Cloud Country, and this woman who had been made seventh sister was naturally a descendant of the royal family. Besides w.a.n.g Xiang Ling, who else in the entire Wind Cloud Country would dare to be so famous?
