Yun Wanqing was afraid that he would turn dark in the next moment, replace Yun Zhan to become the new villain of this world, and do something irreversible, so she quickly used her inner voice to soothe him.
[Dad, I know this system is too mysterious and terrifying, itâs like an invisible mountain pressing down on us, making it hard for us to breathe.]
[But at times like this, the more cool-headed you need to be to avoid falling into the systemâs trap.]
[Our enemies now are not just the system and Su Qianxue, but also Tuo Chenheli and his army outside the pass.]
[Su Qianxue has no military power, and the system has many constraints, they canât directly take action.]
[This pair can only play dirty tricks in the dark, comparatively, Beidi is more terrifying.]
[So, dad doesnât need to concern himself with this pair, just focus all efforts on dealing with Tuo Chenheli and the Beidi army.]
[As for this pair, leave them to me and my brothers to watch over.]
[Our purpose in coming here is to help dad, not to let dad fight in all directions.]
"Thatâs right, dad, just focus on dealing with Tuo Chenheli, donât worry about anything else."
Yun Wanye narrowed his eyes, a trace of fierceness quickly flashed through them, and he had long thought of dozens of ways to deal with Su Qianxue.
Since that woman entertained the idea of handing over the defensive map to Tuo Chenheli for cooperation, he was determined to end her.
If it canât be done once, then twice, if not twice, then eight or ten times.
If drowning doesnât work, then bury her, if that also fails, then poison, flay, deep fry, and burn repeatedly.
Heâll exhaust the systemâs points and tools, he truly doesnât believe the system can protect that woman every time.
If it really can, then as a last resort, targeting Mo Yuanhao is not off the table.
He truly doubts Mo Yuanhao would be as hard to kill as that woman.
"Telling dad these things is to let dad have a bottom line, not to add pressure to dad. At worst, weâll fight to the death, what is there to fear?"
"We of the Yun Family, when have we ever feared death!"
The only fear they had was failing to protect the ones they wished to protect.
If truly pushed to a dead end, then theyâd risk it all, the worst outcome would be the extermination of the family, with bones crushed to ashes.
Comforted in sequence by his son and daughter, Yun Zheng realized he had been too restless tonight.
In the face of a great enemy, this is a major taboo.
He took a deep breath, suppressing all negative emotions, and nodded to agree with their suggestion.
Ningning can observe the system and Su Qianxueâs interactions and can constantly grasp their movements and plans, such division of labor is indeed the most reasonable.
"Alright, but you must remember to be extra careful, above all prioritize safety, and promptly inform me of anything difficult to handle."
"Mhm."
Night had fallen deeply.
That night, the three siblings stayed in the Commanderâs Tent.
To reach Dingbei Pass as soon as possible, Yun Wanchen and Yun Wanye traveled day and night, pushing themselves to their limits.
Now finally seeing Yun Zheng was safe with their own eyes, their tense nerves finally relaxed, fatigue rapidly set in, and the moment their heads touched the pillow, their eyelids began to droop, soon drifting into a deep sleep.
After re-donning his armor, Yun Zheng planned to step outside for a bit.
Before leaving, he walked to the bedding area to see the three siblings, only to find Yun Wanqing hadnât slept yet and was looking up at him while holding a bottle.
"Ningning, why arenât you asleep? Arenât you sleepy?"
He crouched down, reaching out to gently pat her head.
[Mhm, not sleepy, canât fall asleep, is dad going out?]
Thereâs no doubt the journey was taxing, but what did that have to do with her?
On the way, she was either sleeping in Yun Wanchenâs arms or Yun Wanyeâs arms.
If tired of sleeping, she would gaze at the scenery or drink milk when she had the chance, leading a leisurely existence without any sleep deprivation.
"Mhm~"
Yun Zheng responded softly, "Thereâs still a matter that needs addressing, Iâll handle it and come back soon."
[Okay, then dad go ahead.]
Outside the tent.
The guarding soldiers suddenly saw the Commanderâs Tent being lifted, and a burly figure stepping out.
Itâs the Commander!!!
Why would the Commander come out at such a late hour?
The soldiers instantly tensed up, becoming alert.
"Greetings to the Commander."
The uniform voices rang out, as Yun Zheng motioned with his hand and looked at the Centurion standing in front of him.
"Go and summon the Vice Commander, tell him that the Commander has an important matter to discuss with him."
"Well..."
Hearing his words, the Centurion appeared troubled.
Seeing this, Yun Zhengâs eyes shifted slightly, and then he frowned, expressing displeasure while inquiring.
"Whatâs wrong??"
"Reporting to the Commander, the Vice Commander is, is not in the camp..."
