Chapter 559 King Jiang wakes up.
"Li Mu..."
On the side, Xu Doudou recovered from her previous sadness and walked straight to Li Mu.
She didn't notice anything unusual.
But I thought my previous feelings were just excessive sympathy.
At first, he was a little angry when he saw Li Mu hugging Cang Zhi, but when he saw her face covered in blood, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Li Mu looked at Xu Doudou and handed the Cangzhi in his arms to her.
"I'll leave her to you first. I need to go out for a while."
"Where are you going?" Xu Doudou took Cangzhi, and she picked up the soft and boneless body effortlessly.
But I felt a little jealous in my heart. As expected, men prefer such delicate and gentle women.
Li Mu thought about it and said,
"I'll find out something and come back soon. Don't run around."
At this moment, a noisy sound of footsteps was heard again from the end of the dungeon.
Song Chun walked in quickly with a group of armored soldiers.
Li Mu frowned slightly. Judging from the clothes these soldiers were wearing and the concentration of blood energy emanating from their bodies, they were at least at the second level, and some of them had even reached the first level.
In the Xing Dynasty, first-level strength is the stepping stone to commanding an army.
It's not that one cannot become a commander because of weak strength, but if one has to withstand an army of tens of thousands, one cannot hold on without first-level strength.
What's more, the generals themselves are strong and can better prevent the enemy's decapitation operations.
Li Mu turned sideways and blocked Xu Doudou behind him, not because Li Mu was not confident.
Within a hundred feet, no one can hurt the person he wants to protect.
Especially after watching the Hundred Skills of Jianxin, his control over the spiritual energy threads has reached the level of perfection.
But he still did it subconsciously, not for anything else, but because details can most touch a girl's heart.
As expected, although Xu Doudou was a bit thick-skinned, she was not really slow-witted. Her heart was pounding as she looked at Li Mu's strong back.
Song Chun and others came closer, first took a look at the situation in the cell, and then all looked at Li Mu.
"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Thank you for saving my prince. We are so grateful!"
The soldiers knelt on one knee, and the sound of armor and weapons rubbing against each other echoed throughout the dungeon.
Li Mu raised his eyebrows. What’s going on? Am I not the emperor?
It's exposed already?
Damn it, he hasn’t even favored a single concubine yet.
At the side, Jun Jiuling appeared quietly, also pouting, looking uninterested.
"You bastard, it looks like you can't be the emperor anymore."
Li Mu ignored her and looked at Song Chun.
Song Chun strode forward, patted Li Mu's shoulder with a smile, pretending to be pleased.
"Brother Mu! Our plan has worked. We have captured most of the barbarians in the city. Some of them have escaped to the sea. I have sent warships to pursue them. This time, it is all thanks to you!"
As Song Chun spoke, he calmly placed his hand on the dragon head embroidery on Li Mu's chest and kept winking at Li Mu.
Li Mu smiled, silently moved Song Chun's hand away, and said meaningfully,
"King Jiang is awake?"
"Father... Bah! Father has woken up, he wants to see you, and all these uncles want to see you too. We came here when we heard from the servants in the mansion that you were here."
Seeing that Li Mu did not expose him, Song Chun quickly turned the topic to the generals in the army.
"I have long known that the Prince of Yan is both brave and resourceful. After meeting him today, I can see that he is indeed a young hero."
A middle-aged general with a full beard laughed out loud.
"I heard before that His Highness the Crown Prince defended Donglai Pass and led a hundred cavalrymen to wipe out thousands of elite soldiers of the Rongyi. I didn't believe it, but this time, His Highness's plot to strike hard at the Rongyi people has convinced me."
Another old man who looked to be in his sixties spoke, looking at Li Mu with admiration in his eyes.
Li Mu looked at the old man. He should be the strongest among this group of people. He already has the shadow of Hua Jin. It seems that he just lacks an opportunity.
However, Xu Doudou's expression behind Li Mu turned a little ugly.
The look he gave Li Mu was very complicated.
It turns out that he came here specifically to rescue King Jiang, and helping me... was just a convenience.
Some time ago, Xu Doudou had been in the inn at Jiangcheng Port, waiting to be picked up by Xu's mother and others who had returned from the sea. He had no idea about the message from the capital.
At first, she thought that it was King Jiang who wanted to deal with their farming family.
It was only after arriving at Prince Jiang's Mansion with Li Mu that he realized something was wrong.
Li Mu casually exchanged a few words with the generals, then looked at Song Chun and said,
"King Jiang wants to see me?"
Song Chun understood, and nodded repeatedly as if he had just remembered this.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot something important. Brother Mu, come with me to see our father now."
Then he looked at Xu Doudou behind Li Mu, his eyes lingered on Cang Zhi for a moment before he spoke,
"This must be the Saint of the Farmers, the famous Yourong Heroine in the martial arts world. I have ordered people to clean up and leave the villa. The Saint can go and rest first. If anyone needs help, just tell the servants."
"Ah?" Xu Doudou was still in a daze. When he heard someone mention him, he looked at Song Chun, then secretly glanced at Li Mu, and said in a daze,
"No need, I, I..."
"She will go with me to see King Jiang." Li Mu waved his hand, and then without waiting for Xu Doudou's reply, he walked straight out of the dungeon.
Seeing this, Song Chun didn't know what to say and hurriedly followed.
In the dungeon, only Xu Doudou, Cangzhi, and Qi Delong who had already died were left.
"Asshole, pervert, I won't listen to you, I..."
Xu Doudou didn't know why she was so angry. After all, Li Mu saved her and her parents.
This is a fact. Even if Li Mu came to Jiangcheng for other purposes, so what?
For a moment, Xu Doudou felt a deep regret in his heart.
Oh no, oh no, will he hate me because of my temper?
He, he probably didn't see it.
Xu Doudou was so confused that she didn't have time to think too much. She hurriedly hugged Cangzhi and chased after him. However, before she took two steps, she hurried back.
He looked at the soft armor thrown in the corner of the cell and muttered softly,
"This guy, such a treasure is just left here... Mother said that I should be a good wife and helper. I, I am not greedy for treasures, I am just being frugal and managing the household."
Thinking in his mind, Xu Doudou raised his wrist, and the sickle in his sleeve hooked the soft armor into his hand.
The moment she held the soft armor, Xu Doudou's pupils suddenly contracted. She could feel the tremendous power contained in the soft armor.
Moreover, this soft armor obviously does not require true energy to activate.
Before, Xu's mother had shattered Qi Delong's qi sea, but he was still able to display that kind of strength. If Li Mu had not been by his side, she would not have been his opponent at all.
Thinking of this, Xu Doudou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he muttered to himself,
"The production process of this soft armor must be very complicated. Xiaoying will definitely be interested. Now we can trick her. Pah! It will be more certain to invite her out of Mocheng."
Xu Doudou glanced at the beauty with closed eyes in his arms and sighed slightly.
"Xiaoying'er, come and help me. I'm counting on you."
