317 Set Off to the West
It was said that the new ruler of the Northern Border was a bloodthirsty demon. She killed anyone she saw and even gods she saw. She was extremely brutal. She descended from the sky and brought her army to the Northern Border with an unstoppable force. She defeated the original army of the Northern Border again and again. Not only that, but she also killed all those who surrendered and those who resisted. She broke into a city and killed one city after another. In the eyes of the people of the Northern Border, this newly-ascended ruler was not a human. She was a god of death and a madman. She had a large group of loyal followers standing behind her. Could such a person could actually be depended on? Jiang Shan could not believe it.
“You’ll know when you summon her,” Jiang Xi said with a scary smile.
Jiang Shan looked at Jiang Xi and suddenly felt that he did not want to meet this female fiend from the Northern Border.
After dealing with Yang Fen’s funeral, Jiang Guoyou took Jiang Er and his wife for dinner and returned to his hometown in Happy Town. Before he left, he took Jiang Xi’s hand and said, “Jiang Xi, if you get bullied here, tell me. I’ll come and pick you up. Happy Village will always be your home.”
Zhao Yingying, who had never felt a father’s love since she was a child, was so touched that she pushed Jiang Xi away, asking her to say something. Jiang Xi then said slowly, “Father, if you’re bullied, I’ll bring the army over to see you. I’ve already changed the magistrate of Happy Town. Don’t worry, I’ll always be your daughter and the ruler of this world.”
Zhao Yingying, who was moved to tears, was speechless. Her sister-in-law was really good at ruining the atmosphere.
Jiang Guoyou was speechless. His daughter was becoming more and more domineering.
The next day, Jiang Xi left with Song Yun, Prince Ding, and Zhao Yingying after she had given her instructions. The imperial preceptor naturally followed them all the way. He said that he had not returned for a long time and wanted to visit his relatives. Jiang Xi thought that the imperial preceptor was going back to see his sister, the saintess, who he had exchanged 30 years of his life for.
The imperial preceptor, who did not have many years left to live, was worried throughout the journey. He had a feeling that there would be bloodshed. There were even a few times when he wanted to persuade Jiang Xi to just give up and give birth to the child.
“You can bear to be cuckolded, but that doesn’t mean I can.” Jiang Xi glanced at the imeperial preceptor’s head and then walked away with his head held high.
“Even if my sister-in-law can tolerate being cuckolded, I can’t! I want to see which b*tch dared to seduce my brother! My brother must be blind to not want such a good wife like my sister-in-law, but a saintess who came out of nowhere!” Zhao Yingying was angry.
Jiang Xi was now five months pregnant, and the imperial preceptor was terrified when he saw her big belly. The group of people rushed to the west. By the time they arrived, it was already the dead of winter. Jiang Xi’s stomach was more than seven months old. From a distance, she looked like she was about to give birth.
“This West Orchid Nation’s saintess was originally a weak woman, but because her heart was concerned about the people and the world, she was chosen by the heavens. She lived a lonely life without anyone to rely on and could only pray for the blessings of the people. Every generation’s saintess has a short life, dying in the most brilliant years of her life, and now the saintess is in her last few years…” The storyteller took a sip of tea, and the guests below quickly tipped him. The storyteller whetted the appetites of the guests before he slowly continued.
Jiang Xi and the others had been on the road for more than two months and were now almost in the territory of the West Orchid Nation. They just happened to hear the storyteller talk about the saintess.
“The saintess is too pitiful. How can I save her?” Some of the girls were so touched that they cried out loud, as if their hearts were aching for the Saint.
“This little girl, don’t worry. The heavens have the virtue of caring for all living things, not to mention a pure and flawless woman like the saintess, a selfless and extraordinary woman who is dedicated to the country. In this life, she can only be saved by people who have heaven’s blight. This has been the case for generations, but where is this heaven’s blight person easy to find? The world is so big, and only two generations of saintesses have found that person out of dozens of generations, and our saintess is one of the lucky ones…” As soon as the storyteller nodded, someone came out with a plate. The guests gave them money one after another, and Jiang Xi also threw a pile of money in.
The storyteller glanced at Jiang Xi.
“Hurry up and continue!” The guests urged. The business of this teahouse depended on the storyteller.
“Our saintess’ fate is also full of misfortune. This marriage was originally set by the heavens, but it was snatched away by a shameless woman. By the time the saintess found the heaven’s blight person, the heaven’s blight person was already married. It was said that the wife she married was very ugly, and her face was full of pockmarks. She often scared the person with heaven’s blight to tears!” The storyteller slammed the table in righteous indignation.
