Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 445 The Enemy at the Gates (3)

Dugu Chen was in no mood to watch their bickering, his gaze fixed on Wan Hun, exceptionally serious, "How confident are you?"

Wan Hun crossed his arms, his hand touching his beard, slightly frowning, "Seventy percent."

Lou Qianyu looked up at Wan Hun, then at Dugu Chen, before returning his gaze to the blueprints, it seemed like the only way was to cross from underwater.

Dugu Chen smiled faintly, "Good, even with only a seventy percent chance, this Marshal must try."

"Your Majesty can rest assured, Wan Hun will not fail his mission." A smile appeared on the ageless face of Wan Hun, catching Xiaobai off guard.

"Wow, wow, wow, stone-faced, so you can actually smile. Quite a rarity, tsk, tsk, tsk." Xiaobai’s eyes widened as if seeing a monster, staring at Wan Hun, shaking his head while making a series of sounds.

There was a ’smack’ as Dugu Chen’s palm aimed at Xiaobai, "Stop messing around, or I’ll tell your sister. As for how you’ll be punished, I think... you should know."

"Stop, stop, I give up, it’s just a little swim, no big deal." Xiaobai rolled his eyes, having been with his sister for so long, he was even better at threats than she was, no, better at threatening beasts.

Lou Qianyu couldn’t help but chuckle, "Emperor Jinghe, this young master is quite interesting, especially those clear and bottomless eyes, not bad."

Xiaobai glanced at him from the corner of his eye, inwardly snorting in disdain. What do you mean ’not bad’? It’s quite more than ’not bad’; what kind of eyesight is that, old without showing age, yet with a brain of senile dementia.

Dugu Chen made no comment, looking towards Wan Hun, "When do you plan to set off?"

"At dusk, when they’re changing guards on the wall for the night shift, Xiaobai and I will quickly pass through; they will find it difficult to notice us."

"Hmm, you must look after yourself, if the water in the river is too cold and unbearable, come back. Then this Marshal will think of another way." Dugu Chen was also worried; although the river water had already melted by March, it was still ice-cold and chill.

Wan Hun had no expression on his face, but his eyes betrayed his excitement, feeling quite warm inside: "This is nothing." Compared to his days of martial arts training, this was indeed a minor issue.

After finishing discussions in the tent, Xiaobai and Wan Hun returned to their own tents, lying on the wooden planks, staring at the white tent canvas lost in thought: wondering what his sister was doing now, what Xiaolan was doing in the space, and whether there was any more of the fruit wine his sister brewed.

Wan Hun lay on the wooden plank, watching Xiaobai smiling foolishly, called out to him twice but got no response, went over and gave him a light tap, "What delightful things are you thinking of?"

Xiaobai turned his head and glared fiercely at Wan Hun, flipped over, turning his back to him, lying on his side, his mind once again filled with thoughts of his Xiaolan.

Wan Hun looked at his childlike expression and couldn’t help laughing a few times, "Still angry? You really are quite petty."

"Who said I’m angry, I’m very generous." Xiaobai sat up abruptly, his eyes defiant as he looked at Wan Hun.

"Yes, yes, yes, you’re the most generous, you’re the best."

"That’s more like it. So, what do you want?" His body stiffened, an air of ’speak quickly, I’m busy’ about him.

Wan Hun shook his head, "Tonight, once we’re inside Capital City, I’ll set a fire to draw their attention. Then you seize the moment to open the city gate, understood?"

"Why are you the one to draw their attention and not me?" Xiaobai furrowed his brows and asked the icy-faced man before him with puzzlement.

"It’s too dangerous; you’re still young."

Upon hearing this, Xiaobai’s little tiger heart melted with emotion, "No worries, I’m not afraid of danger. You go open the city gate." I am a Divine Beast, why would such a thing be dangerous for me? It’s you, human, who might be in danger.
