She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 601 - 600: Go or Not, It’s Up to You

"Exactly!" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

This was Hong Wu’s first reaction, as she clenched her fists and said fiercely.

After returning to Capital City with her master and experiencing so much unbearable pain, such a man didn’t deserve her master’s love at all!

"When does he die? I’ll buy fireworks throughout the city to celebrate!"

Yan Lingzhen looked at the eagerness in Hong Wu’s eyes and sighed, "I plan to save him."

"Why, Miss Six? Hasn’t he harmed the master enough?!" Hong Wu was very puzzled.

"Because he is Cong Ze’s father, no matter how monstrous he is, I at least want Cong Ze to meet him once." That way, at least when Cong Ze grows up, he’ll know what his father looks like and won’t harbor resentment against his sister.

Hong Wu sighed deeply after hearing this.

"I should have killed him along with Xiao Hongshen back at Southern Mountain, to save us from all these troubles later," Hong Wu regretted deeply.

Yan Lingzhen shook her head, "Talking about this now is pointless. Even if Xiao Pingfeng escapes this disaster, he won’t live much longer. Qin Erya has been turned into a human guinea pig, and with winter approaching, she might not survive it. Once she dies, the Child Poisonous Insect in Xiao Pingfeng’s body will also die for love." Unless a way to remove the poisonous insect poison is found soon.

"For three years, I traveled far and wide, north to south, and still found nothing. There’s only one place left I haven’t visited," Yan Lingzhen’s eyes showed deep thought: "Penglai, the legendary island of immortals that sister once mentioned."

"But Xiao Pingfeng will never let Miss Six go outside," Hong Wu thought this plan wouldn’t work.

To prevent them from escaping, Xiao Pingfeng had annihilated his own martial arts.

A man so malicious might as well be left to die, why bother trying so hard.

However, Hong Wu could only say such things in her heart.

After all, Xiao Pingfeng is Xiaocong’s biological father, and Xiaocong is so adorable. He hasn’t even met his father since he was born.

Thinking this, Hong Wu could only resign herself to fate, "Does Miss Six have a way?"

Having followed Yan Lingzhen for so long, Hong Wu knew that once Yan Lingzhen spoke, she must have a plan already in mind.

Sure enough, Yan Lingzhen nodded, "I can’t go on my own, he might disagree, so I plan to take him with me."

"Now, while still at war with Chu Kingdom, if Xiao Pingfeng, the Emperor of Dawei leaves, wouldn’t Dawei be doomed to lose?!" Hong Wu felt that Miss Six’s strategy this time was quite shocking; Xiao Pingfeng definitely wouldn’t agree.

Yan Lingzhen curled her lips slightly, her demeanor calm and confident, "He will agree."

Xiao Pingfeng was a man of sentiments.

So, he would definitely agree.

"Besides, Hong Wu, you should have faith in sister. Since the war has now paused, my sister will definitely not let it start again!"

Yan Lingzhen had such confidence.

Hong Wu partly understood.

Wasn’t Miss Six schooled in medicine? Now it seemed she was more like a fortune-teller.

"How does Miss Six plan to make Xiao Pingfeng leave his troops and head for Penglai?" Hong Wu felt this was the key issue.

Xiao Pingfeng was like a ticking bomb, ready to explode at any moment. The palace attendants were frequently carried out of his tent, covered in blood.

She couldn’t think of any way to persuade such a violent man to travel.

Yan Lingzhen curled the corners of her lips, the angles of her eyes twinkling cunningly.

"I’ll just tell him that my sister is in Penglai."

Hong Wu: "..." Silently gave a thumbs up.

Brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant!

"Wait a minute, Miss Six, if we can’t find sister in Penglai, what then? Xiao Pingfeng can be terrifying when he is furious," Hong Wu was still apprehensive.

Yan Lingzhen turned away, "We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it."

The solution will present itself when the time comes.

Inside the room.

Yan Lingzhen returned.

Xiao Pingfeng frowned impatiently.

"If it’s for that child, you can go now."

After speaking, he covered his mouth and coughed heavily a few times, as if his heart was being torn apart.

Yan Lingzhen spoke earnestly, "There’s news of my elder sister."

As soon as she mentioned this, Xiao Pingfeng immediately looked at her, a bright light bursting from his dark eyes, "...Where?"

Yan Lingzhen was startled, but she quickly steadied her mind and spoke in an even tone, "Your Majesty must have heard of this place, Penglai, the island of immortals."

Xiao Pingfeng had indeed heard of it.

Ji Yuntai had once wanted to invite Yan Wanqing to visit Penglai Island as a guest, but she had declined due to her pregnancy.

Had she really gone to Penglai in these few short months?!

Xiao Pingfeng could hardly believe it.

"Where did you get this information?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingzhen scoffed, "We sisters have our unique ways of communicating. Surely Your Majesty wouldn’t deprive us of that? You have already caused Hong Wu to lose all her martial arts abilities; do you also intend to completely destroy the way I report safety to my sister?! Why don’t you just kill me and send my head to my sister then?"

Xiao Pingfeng’s face turned pale, completely drained of color, clearly reminded of the incident at Yan Jing, his thin lips trembling slightly.

The hand that had been raised now fell helplessly back down.

"...I didn’t mean it that way."

Yan Lingzhen looked deeply at him, "Either way, I’ve told you where my sister is. Whether you go or not is up to you."

After speaking, she walked away without any fuss.

Her attitude was defiant and arrogant, no longer regarding Xiao Pingfeng with any respect.

"Your Majesty, should I go and teach the Sixth Miss a lesson?" the Palace Attendant who could no longer bear it asked.

Was it not just because she was skilled in medicine that she dared to be so disrespectful in front of Your Majesty, which truly warranted death!

Seeing that Xiao Pingfeng did not respond for a long time.

The Palace Attendant dared to lift his eyes slightly, and to his dismay, he noticed that the Emperor was smiling.

Good heavens, this murderous Emperor, to be cursed by the Sixth Miss and yet to smile.

He remembered that His Majesty was injured in the chest; could it be that his brain was also damaged?

The Palace Attendant immediately lowered his head.

These matters of the nobility, they, the servants, really couldn’t understand.

"Do not meddle in affairs that aren’t your concern," Xiao Pingfeng returned to his usual stern and unapproachable demeanor.

The Palace Attendant bowed his head even lower, "It was wrong of your servant to speak out of turn."

"Prepare everything, this time I will definitely bring back the Empress and the Crown Prince," his dark eyes filled with determination.

No one, and nothing, could separate his family.

...

Imperial Palace of Qin State.

The court officials were divided into two groups, standing on either side, Qin Wu sitting on the throne with a woman in a bright red official robe standing on his right, second only to him in authority.

Everyone in the Qin State was eagerly looking toward the distance.

A procession was slowly approaching the hall, led by a figure with the aura of an immortal, his three thousand white hairs tied atop his head, an old face, yet with a straight back and a lively stride, full of charm.

It was Song Huaxu!

"The envoy from Chu Kingdom, having traveled thousands of miles to come here, truly is a great fortune for our Qin State," Qin Wu said in a formal tone, his smile creasing the corners of his eyes.

Song Huaxu bowed and then stood up straight, "Empress Your Majesty flatters me, Qin State is a prosperous land, and along the way here, the common people welcomed me warmly, truly hospitable!"

"The envoy must be tired from the journey, please take a seat, and we can talk over a drink," Qin Wu gestured with a sweep of his sleeve for Song Huaxu to sit beside him.

After three rounds of drinks, the conversation turned to serious matters.

Song Huaxu’s gaze drifted past Qin Wu to the delicate face beside him, raising his cup, "This must be Prime Minister Qin Zhen, your reputation precedes you; I must raise a toast to you."

He stood up, facing Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen’s lips curled into a faint smile.

Truly a persistent, indestructible old ghost.
