Chapter 33

But this dangerous environment was exactly what Ye Ning had been longing for.

Originally, he thought his reckless plan had failed, but unexpectedly, there was still a pleasant surprise!

Ye Ning knew about the Rakshasa Country that Xiao Qianqian mentioned.

The Rakshasa Country was located in the northwest, and during the era of the founding emperor, it was a vassal of Great Zhou.

At that time, they paid tribute every year and paid respects every year, behaving obediently like the Third Grandson.

With the decline of Great Zhou’s national strength and the internal turmoil of the Nine Provinces, the originally obedient Rakshasa Country gradually developed its own ambitions.

Probably over a thousand years ago, it officially broke away from being a vassal of Great Zhou.

After breaking away, the Rakshasa Country produced several generations of capable rulers. They learned the culture and craftsmanship of the main state, and attracted many unsuccessful scholars by promising high positions and wealth.

Their national strength continued to improve.

In recent years, there were signs of expansion, even provoking at the border and annexing Great Zhou’s territory several times.

And Great Zhou, exhausted from dealing with intense domestic conflicts, was unable to deal with the Rakshasa Country.

This undoubtedly encouraged their arrogance.

The Rakshasa Country was arrogant, but Ye Ning hadn’t expected them to be arrogant enough to plant spies in the capital!

More so, it was the renowned figure in the capital, the dream goddess of countless people, Xiao Qianqian.

For so long, how many people had Xiao Qianqian contacted?

And how many people had been bewitched by her beauty?

The imaginable space was too vast!

The Rakshasa Country likely used Xiao Qianqian to set up a huge intelligence network in the capital.

“Indeed, when you lag behind, you’re bound to suffer. Even a small country like the Rakshasa Country attempts to take a piece of meat from Great Zhou.”

Ye Ning sighed, but more than that, he was excited.

If not for his current inability to move, he should have been trembling with excitement.

The larger the network set up by the Rakshasa Country, the more it indicated that Ye Ning, who knew the truth, would definitely not be able to return alive!

Either surrender or die!

There was simply no second choice.

But for Ye Ning, his choice was obviously only one.

Hearing Ye Ning’s cursing, Xiao Qianqian wasn’t angry. Instead, she was touched.

“He really isn’t afraid of death. He’s not pretending for show, fame, or wealth. Even beautiful women can’t shake his will!”

In Xiao Qianqian’s heart, Ye Ning’s status kept rising.

The more shaken she was internally, the more serious she appeared externally, her eyes almost dripping with intense killing intent.

“Sir Ye, I’ll give you one last chance. I really cherish your talent, that’s why I’ve said so much to you.”

Stop talking.

Just kill me directly!

This was Ye Ning’s inner voice.

“A good general doesn’t fear death to escape danger, a martyr doesn’t compromise to seek survival.”

Ye Ning straightened his spine and said proudly.

He immersed himself in the role once again.

His acting had no flaws, and Xiao Qianqian believed it.

And her eyes moistened.

In times of danger, true character was revealed.

In the past, when Great Zhou was powerful, everyone flocked to it, but now that Great Zhou had declined, everyone retreated like the tide.

Over the years, as the head of the Intelligence Division, Xiao Qianqian had encountered too many people.

There were too many shameless and undignified despicable people.

She had become numb to it, even feeling that human nature was inherently like this.

Until she met Ye Ning.

The righteous aura emanating from him illuminated the softest part of Xiao Qianqian’s heart.

She should have ended the conversation there, but she couldn’t help asking the question that puzzled her.

“Why are other scholars willing to surrender and compromise? Isn’t it normal for trees to scatter and monkeys to disperse when the tree falls and the monkey scatters? Why can you adhere to your principles, not compromising, not surrendering?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Ning immersed himself even deeper into the role.

He thought of the traitors in Chinese history.

They betrayed their own people and country, but shamelessly justified themselves, finding excuses for their own cowardice.

“Miss Xiao, you are also a person of Great Zhou. Although you have joined the Rakshasa Country, you cannot change the fact that you have Great Zhou blood flowing in your veins. In that case, let me give you a word.

“Vileness is the passport of the vile, nobility is the epitaph of the noble!

“All excuses are justifications. The grandiose appearances on the surface cannot cover up the essential base and low.”

Ye Ning took a deep breath.

“Great Zhou has always had few heroes who fail, few resistances with tenacity, few warriors who fight alone, and few mourners who dare to weep for traitors. They gather when they see signs of victory and scatter when they see signs of defeat.

“But I am different.

“I firmly believe that what doesn’t kill me only makes me stronger!

“And if I really die, then my spirit will be passed on, not to be lost.

“You can do it, I won’t yield.”

Ye Ning poised himself, ready to meet his fate.

He believed that after saying these words, he would definitely not be able to survive.

However, strangely, Xiao Qianqian released his constraints.

She lowered her head and said, “Everyone saw you enter my room, so I can’t kill you here. But the wine you just drank was poisoned. There’s no antidote for three days. If you change your mind, come find me anytime.”

With a wave of her hand, a tremendous force pushed Ye Ning out.

She seemed a bit rushed, urgent.

Indeed, she was afraid that Ye Ning would see her tears.

No one understood Ye Ning’s words better than her just now.

She was the head of the Intelligence Division, the top courtesan of the Spring Wind Pavilion, the goddess of countless men, and a powerful practitioner…

But first and foremost, she was a person of Great Zhou.

If she didn’t love her country, how could she hide her identity and step into the brothel?

But walking the path of patriotism was so lonely.

Throughout history, resolute people were far outnumbered by those who wavered.

She had already become accustomed to it and developed a heart of stone.

There was nothing in the world that could shake her.

But today, Ye Ning had shattered her heart of stone.

“He is one of my kind, but he’s different from me. He’s naturally meant to be in the sunlight, guiding everyone’s direction. He’s the banner, the lighthouse, the spiritual symbol of Great Zhou.” Xiao Qianqian smiled beautifully. “And I should be in the shadows.”

Luzhu walked in.

She looked at Xiao Qianqian, who was crying and smiling, with a worried expression.

What did that bad person say?

She found it hard to accept Xiao Qianqian’s current appearance.

She seemed to be full of flaws all over her body.

“Go, send the newest and best spies out, send them to Ye Ning’s side to protect his safety, and when necessary, be prepared to die for him!”

Xiao Qianqian took a deep breath, more serious than ever before.

“Ye Ning must not die!”
