A Thousand-Year Journey Through the God of War

"Xiang'er, your soul can also enter my mind?" The God of War was extremely shocked. Could it be that Xiang'er was also a cultivator?

"This is Xueyi's newly developed Mirror of Past and Present Lives. It allows people to travel through time and space and freely enter the mind of their beloved. However, this love must transcend life and death and be inseparable."

"This is amazing! Now we can meet anytime!" the God of War exclaimed excitedly.

"What are you thinking about!" Xiang'er's angry voice rang out. "The Mirror of Past and Present Lives requires Xue Xin's Thousand-Mile Transmission Technique, which is extremely physically demanding. I wanted to tell you that it's good to practice hard, but don't overdo it. Your path to growth is not something that can be achieved overnight; on the contrary, it's something you fight your way up step by step. As long as you hold fast to your convictions, one day you will definitely reach the pinnacle of martial arts and become a true Heavenly Martial God of War!"

"Okay, Xiang'er, I understand!" The God of War had many questions in his mind: "Xiang'er, do you know many things that I don't? Or do you, like the Heavenly Martial God of War's soul, possess the ability to foresee the future?... "

"I'll tell you about that later. Xuexin's strength is a bit depleted right now, I need to check her pulse." Xiang'er interrupted the God of War's questions. "I'll tell you everything when I have time. You should rest early now, there are still many challenges waiting for us on the road ahead!"

Early the next morning, the God of War arrived at the Prefectural Governor's Mansion in Wancheng. Now that Liu Feng had arrived in Wancheng, it was time for the God of War Temple to return to Xinye.

After Liu Bei arrived in Xinye, the strength of the Temple of War gradually grew, and it helped Liu Bei drive away Cao Cao's army several times, thus ensuring the ownership of Xinye, Fancheng and Wancheng to the greatest extent.

Now that the war has just ended, everyone is in dire need of rest and recuperation. Therefore, Liu Bei sent Liu Feng with 10,000 troops to Wancheng to replace the people of the War God Temple so that they could return to Xinye City to rest.

The God of War ushered Liu Feng to the main seat in the Prefect's Mansion, and then led Xiang'er, Wushuang, Shangguan Yunlong, Murong Xue, Ye'er, Na'er, Feng Xuexin, Xiaolian, Tiannu, and Canglang to sit down to Liu Feng's left in turn.

All the officers, both high and low, brought by Liu Feng sat down to his right. After detailed discussions and deliberations, the final handover of the attack and defense plans for Wancheng was completed. From then on, the heavy responsibility of protecting Wancheng fell on the 10,000-strong army brought by Liu Feng.

As soon as Dou Shen and the others left the governor's mansion, they saw Ma Yunlu following Ma Chao, Ma Dai, and Pang De to stand before them.

"President, we originally wanted to stay a little longer, but something came up and we might have to return to Xiliang," Ma Yunlu joked to the God of War. "However, I'm really going to miss everyone."

Before the God of War could answer, Na'er ran over and hugged Ma Yunlu tightly, saying, "I also can't bear to part with my beautiful sister Yunlu, what should I do?"

Everyone burst into laughter at Na'er's adorable appearance and her pretty baby face.

The God of War walked up to Ma Yunlu, Ma Chao, and the others, and said reluctantly, "We were just thinking of inviting you to stay in Xinye City for a while, so that Xiang'er and Xiaoxue could properly treat your injuries."

Ma Chao said with some difficulty, "Originally, the four of us also had this intention, but my father sent someone to say that Cao Cao has already sent my father to the court to serve as an official in the name of the emperor. The imperial edict has already been sent to Xiliang, so we must go back to take over Xiliang."

"In that case, we will not insist that you stay any longer, but let us check how your injuries are healing."

After carefully examining the injuries of Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De, and Ma Yunlu, Xiang'er shook her head slightly and said, "The poison that you were all poisoned this time has penetrated deep into your bones. It cannot be cured overnight. Even if Xiaoxue and I do our best, we can only treat you to this extent. To completely cure you, you will need my silver needles for a long time."

Murong Xue continued, "Although my zither music also has the effect of detoxifying, I had already reached the limit of my treatment for this poison that day, so there would be little point in using my zither music for further treatment. You should listen to Sister Xiang'er's opinion more."

"Alright, every six months, or at the latest a year, you all need to come to the Temple of the God of War so I can provide you with follow-up treatment until the poison is completely eradicated," Xiang'er said after thinking for a moment. "Also, Yunlu is a girl and her constitution is obviously weaker than the three of you. Just to be on the safe side, let her stay at the Temple of the God of War so I can treat her properly."

"That's fine then. The three of us will set off back to Xiliang." Ma Chao nodded, then said to Ma Yunlu with reluctance, "Little sister, you must listen to what the Battle God Guild Leader and everyone else say here. Don't be spoiled or willful. I'll come back to see you in a while."

"Okay, okay, I know, brother." Ma Yunlu said playfully, and called him "brother" in a particularly gentle voice at the end.

"That's good, little sister, brother's off." Ma Chao was both amused and exasperated. After saying that, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to the Fighting Gods and said, "Then I'll leave my little sister in your care."

The God of War hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Meng Qi, we will definitely take good care of Sister Yunlu. Besides, you are our saviors, aren't you?"

The others in the Temple of War nodded in agreement.

Ma Chao was deeply moved, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. This trip to the Central Plains had allowed him to make such good friends with the people of the War God Temple, and he was really reluctant to leave. However, he eventually took Ma Dai and Pang De back to Xiliang.

"President, when we arrive in Xinye City, you must show me around properly!" Ma Yunlu said jokingly to the God of War while sitting in the spacious carriage that Ma Chao had left for everyone.

"Um... okay, to be honest, it's been a long time since I've been back to Xinye, I really need to explore it properly."

"Yeah, we really need to take a good look around. After all, you're the president I've ever met who can sleep the most. You can't spend all your free time sleeping, haha..." Ma Yunlu laughed heartily.

The God of War chuckled awkwardly, "This... um... can we not talk about this, Sister Yunlu?"

"Okay, President." Ma Yunlu couldn't stop smiling. Feng Xuexin, who was sitting next to the God of War, had been covering her mouth and chuckling, but she couldn't help but laugh out loud at this moment.

Xiao Lian, who was next to her, listened to their conversation, pursed her lips, and smiled slightly. She was quite happy for Dou Shen. After all, she was one of the first people to know Dou Shen and co-found the War God Temple. Seeing him grow step by step and receive strong support from the entire War God Temple guild, she was genuinely happy for him.

"Pretty sister Yunlu, are you teasing the president like this because you want to become his wife?" Na'er pouted and said playfully.

"Na'er, don't talk nonsense." Although Ye'er seemed to be scolding Na'er, her words were full of an older sister's love for her younger sister.

"Haha, that's a great suggestion. Wouldn't that make me second only to the emperor, above everyone else?"

"Of course! If Sister Yunlu wants to marry Brother Doushen, there's no need to rush back to her family home in Xiliang, right, Sister Xiang'er?"

"Yes, after all, the two of them need to cultivate their relationship first." Xiaoxue and Xiang'er, who were usually quiet, chimed in with laughter, which made the other women burst into laughter.

The God of War was sweating profusely, even Xiaoxue and Xiang'er joined in teasing him. The women's laughter and chatter filled the carriage with lively chatter. "If only time could stand still at this moment," Xiang'er thought to herself.
