Chapter 3: The Hundred Battles General

  The demonic husband is visiting our door repeatedly

  Didn't want to see anyone, yet unexpectedly ran into him. Seeing the deputy general walking towards her with a flattering face, Xiao Huan Yue's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, then she smiled faintly and respectfully greeted him.

  "Deputy General." Xiao Huan Yue bowed her hands politely, her gentle attitude completely concealing the disgust she felt towards this Deputy General.

  She didn't want to leave the barracks, but she was fed up with this uncle who was more than a decade older than her and wouldn't let go. However, she knew that she knew nothing about this world, and leaving would only make things more dangerous. All she could do was wait patiently for an opportunity.

  "Xiao Guniang, you're always so polite." The deputy general was about to step forward and help her up, wanting to take the opportunity to flirt with her, but then remembered something and awkwardly withdrew his hand.

  Looking at his hesitant expression, Xiao Huan Yue secretly smiled to herself. When he first tried to get close to her, she only said one sentence that not only made him never dare to touch her again but also made the entire military camp afraid to approach her.

  "I'm not good at anything else, so I learned some poisonous techniques. The clothes got stained with poison, and I said it in advance, I only know how to use poison, but I don't know how to detoxify."

  The news spread quickly in the military camp, and no one dared to touch her because they had seen her strange clothes. Even after experiencing the massacre, she was still calm as water, plus the elegant temperament emanating from her body, even the young soldiers who had not seen much of the world knew that she was extraordinary.

  It's better to believe in its existence than not, "die under the peony flower, and even as a ghost, it's still elegant", this sentence is definitely not said by someone who wants to die. If compared to beauty, one's own life is still more important.

  The deputy general gazed at the stunning beauty in front of him, who was still dressed in a small soldier's uniform, and his heart itched with desire but he had no choice. He had never seen such an exquisite and beautiful person before, and now she was alone and helpless, the great general was seriously injured and unconscious, and for now, he was in charge of the army, this opportunity would not come again, he couldn't bear it!

  He had also doubted her words, but she seemed to see what he was thinking and smiled: "Only two people survived in a town of hundreds. Is it just luck that the survivors are still alive?" One sentence made him no longer doubt.

  "I heard that the general has woken up?" With a hint of unyielding determination in his eyes, Xiao Huan Yue still maintained a warm smile.

  "Well, I need to report the matter of Qingyun City to him. You come with me." Staring at her calm and beautiful eyes, the deputy general found that he couldn't see through her at all. A mere woman could actually make him unable to see through her, and he didn't know what his mood was now.

  The town that was massacred was called Qingyun Town, Xiao Huan Yue smiled slightly. In the past few days, no one dared to mention this matter in front of her, fearing that she would be heartbroken, and she was worried about how to inquire about it.

  Following the deputy general to the heavily guarded camp, seeing the soldiers guarding them being stopped, Xiao Huan Yue thoughtfully glanced at the main account that was already close at hand.

  "I have military information to report." The deputy general frowned and glared at the soldier, his expression very dissatisfied but not angry.

  "Please wait a moment, General." The soldier was very respectful, bowed his head and responded with a "yes" before going to the main tent to inform the general.

  "Hmph!" Glaring at the soldiers surrounding the tent, the deputy general's face was gloomy.

  He was not the first to be stopped outside the account, a small soldier could stop a deputy general, it must have been ordered by the general. It seems that the injury received by the general is quite intriguing. With a cold eye observing everything, between the silent and colorless, Xiao Huan Yue vaguely felt something.

  Having obtained permission, she followed Vice General into the main tent and saluted with her eyebrows furrowed and eyes downcast.

  "Get up!" A low and thick voice came, simple three words but with unspeakable majesty.

  What a magnetic voice! Xiao Huan Yue slowly raised his head, and saw that on the bed, leaning against the wall was a person with jet-black hair tied back with a single hairband, messy strands of hair falling down from both sides of his neck, disappearing into his slightly open shirt. His ancient bronze skin was tempered by years of battle, his half-exposed robust chest wrapped in white cloth, with faint bloodstains visible through the fabric, indicating that he was severely injured. Looking closer at him, his face was resolute and chiseled like a knife, deep eyes and sword-like eyebrows, his brow flying into his temples, his pupils deep and profound, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes, yet still shining brightly. His nose was straight and proportional, like an ancient Greek sculpture, perfectly proportioned and flawless, with tightly pursed lips that exuded a sense of majesty and sensuality. Despite his sickly appearance, he didn't look weak, but rather languid and sensual, with a hint of boldness and untamed spirit, and a few hints of arrogance.

  What a handsome guy, and the kind that's both handsome and cool, it's too stunning, almost making this not-so-romantic woman stare blankly. Is he really the "War God" who's been rumored to be a seasoned general? He looks like he's at most 27 or 28 years old, how can someone so young become a great general of a country, could it be that he got there through connections?

  Just as Xiao Huan Yue was lost in thought, Xiao Chu was also sizing her up. From the moment she walked in and before he saw her face, she had already caught his eye.

  She wore a set of ordinary soldier's clothes, which didn't fit her well and even looked a bit ridiculous on her, but couldn't hide her elegant and refined figure. The moment she lifted her head, his heart skipped a beat - a delicate and lovely face, skin as white as snow, without any makeup, like a beautiful jade, made people gaze at her in awe. Her eyes sparkled with warmth, her eyebrows and eyes seemed to hold a hint of literary elegance, yet also had an unyielding spirit that was not inferior to men. Her small cherry lips were slightly pursed, with a warm smile at the corner of her mouth, warming people's hearts.

  Just this one glance, Xiao Chu couldn't take his eyes off her again. As a general of the country and a high-ranking official in the court, he wasn't someone who hadn't seen beautiful women before. There were those whose looks surpassed hers, and those whose elegance and refinement surpassed hers. Even Fu Hanshuo, known as the "Number One Beauty of Qinglan", couldn't stir up any interest in him. So why was it that she could attract his gaze from the moment he laid eyes on her? Was it her calm and clear yet unfathomable starry eyes? Or was it her air of elegance and refinement that seemed high and unapproachable, like a moonlit goddess, yet made people feel warm and intimate? Or perhaps it was her gentle yet subtly distant smile? She was full of contradictions, like both flames and ice, making it impossible to understand or guess what she was thinking. She had the warmth of the sun, yet also the profundity of a cold night. These contradictions blended together in a way that was unique, one-of-a-kind, and perhaps it was precisely this uniqueness that drew him in.

  "General? General?" The deputy general's call shifted his gaze from her, and upon seeing the deputy general's sly expression, a few more depths were added to his lazy expression.
