Do you know: I should be fat and you should be thin!

Once they identified the direction of Xihua Gate, Zhou Ning led Minglan to charge left and right, killing the archers first. Once surrounded, they would repeat the same tactic, abandoning Minglan to buy time for a burst of energy. The true energy in their palms became more and more unrestrained, and each attack was like a cataclysmic event, with blood splattering and people and horses falling wherever they went!

Without her hairpin, Minglan's hairstyle finally came undone after several attempts, her beautiful hair resembling a piece of plain brocade soaked in ink, falling straight down her shoulders and back.

She was used to being tossed high into the air again and again, and believed that Zhou Ning would always catch her. She enjoyed the feeling of freefalling and being caught in a man's arms!

The rebels were worried that killing the woman would make the brave man even more brutal, so they focused on dealing with Zhou Ning.

However, Zhou Ning was at the level of the Hundred Acupoints Unification Realm, with his internal energy protecting him. Before his internal energy was exhausted, he could be described as invincible. He forcefully carved a gap several feet wide in the airtight military formation and quickly advanced westward!

Upon discovering that Zhou Ning was impossible to cut and was incredibly strong, no one dared to step forward anymore. They simply surrounded the two of them, constantly retreating to make way for them!

The Xihua Gate was already in sight, and there were only a dozen or so rebel soldiers above it.

Seeing that the rebels were unable to form an encirclement, Zhou Ning changed his one-handed embrace to a princess carry. He then noticed that Minglan's face was mostly hidden by her hair, with only her pink lips exposed. He kissed her deeply, giving her a sweet, forceful kiss.

"You..." Minglan was embarrassed and annoyed. At a time like this, this annoying guy still wanted to ruin her reputation!

Even if you want to take liberties with yourself, you should wait until no one is around!

The rebels looked at each other, feeling humiliated!

Why look down on people like that?

Zhou Ning laughed, "200 coins a month? What are you guys risking your lives for? I'm not playing with you anymore!"

He has confirmed that all the archers have been killed, so there is no need to guard against stray arrows anymore!

With a light tap of his toes on the ground, he leaped high into the air, covering more than ten zhang before touching a rebel's helmet. Using that momentum, he leaped another ten zhang and floated to the foot of Xihua Gate!

In front of hundreds of rebel soldiers, he tightened his grip on Minglan in front of him, tapped his left foot on the city wall, and suddenly his body rose two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters) higher. He then tapped his right foot on the city wall and rose another two zhang. In this way, he strolled leisurely on the smooth city wall and climbed the wall in four steps!

The dozen or so rebel soldiers guarding the Xihua Gate were terrified when they saw him carrying someone up the city wall, and they immediately ran away!

Zhou Ning put Minglan down, placed her on the crenellations of the city wall, and released her pressure points.

"Sixth sister, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Minglan wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a deep kiss on the lips.

She had just realized that after having physical intimacy in front of everyone, how could she possibly preserve her reputation?

It was simply a matter of accepting one's fate, but fortunately, it suited his own desires.

He wants to kiss himself!

Then I will kiss him!

Zhou Ning felt the softness of the cherry lips and smelled their delicate fragrance. Overwhelmed with passion, he responded enthusiastically and secretly rubbed them with his hand.

Minglan, unable to resist, pushed him away, saying shyly, "No! Send the blood edict first!"

Zhou Ning was still eager for more, but knew it wasn't the right time, so he led her off the city wall...

Funing Palace!

Although Zhou Ning led away most of the rebel army during his breakout, after the Prince of Yan and Consort Rong had killed the entire clan of the Prince of Yong, the Prince of Yan personally led his men to attack!

Empress Cao went out to stop him, but before she could even get close to the Prince of Yan, she was violently pushed down by a squad leader!

When the Prince of Yan entered the palace and saw a large crowd, he ordered his men to drag the eunuchs away for questioning and to take away any attractive palace maids to reward the army!

Sheng Changbai stood protectively in front of the old emperor, facing the Prince of Yan head-on without flinching!

The Prince of Yan, sword in hand, shouted, "Do you wish to test the sharpness of my sword?"

"Traitorous scoundrel!" Sheng Changbai rasped.

When the Prince of Yan saw that there was still blood on the silk cloth around his neck, and that his face was pale but he was extremely calm, he was afraid that he would fight him to the death, so he prepared to have his men kill him!

"Report! Your Highness Prince Yan, a eunuch said that the man and woman who broke through the siege had a blood-stained imperial edict and tiger tally on their person! He also said that His Majesty mentioned that the man was the top scholar in the imperial examination in the fifth year of the Jiayou era!" A squad leader entered the hall to report!

The King of Yan ordered, "Send someone to check if they've captured him!"

He has sent out his best men this time. One of them is a top scholar, does he think he can turn the world upside down?

Even the top martial arts champion must die!

"Report! Your Highness, a man and a woman are heading towards Xihua Gate. The man is unstoppable; our blades can't even touch him, they just injure us. And the shield formation of the Killing Group was broken by him in one move; all twelve of them are seriously injured and coughing up blood! Oh, and he can fly too. He can leap several meters high and travel over ten meters with a woman in his arms. We can't stop him at all!" The squad leader who had been kicked rushed into the hall to report.

"Haha! It seems even the heavens aren't on your side. You, the top scholar of the Zhou Dynasty, can possess such divine power! You never expected that, did you? Cough cough!"

When the old emperor heard about the traitor, he was worried that Zhou Ning would be captured. But after hearing the report, he burst out laughing and mocked the Prince of Yan.

Only then did Sheng Changbai realize that Zhou Ning possessed such martial arts skills, and he was even more grateful that he had not hindered Zhou Ning's breakout!

"You bastard! Listen to what you're saying, who would believe you?" the Prince of Yan roared, holding his sword to the squad leader's neck.

"Your Highness, I have the tiger's mouth as proof! The wounded from the Killing Squad are lying in the side hall to the east of the palace. Many people can testify that what I said is true!" The squad leader hurriedly showed his tiger's mouth, which had been cracked by the shock.

The Prince of Yan felt dizzy. He was already wary of Gu Yankai, the Duke of Yingguo, and others. Now their families were all in the palace, so where did this strange person come from?

The top scholar in the imperial examination?

"Report! Your Highness, a man and a woman have rushed out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and are less than a hundred paces from the West Gate. The man possesses superhuman strength and can send everyone flying with a wave of his hand. Over a hundred people have already died, and no fewer than two hundred are seriously injured! Pfft!" Another person rushed into the hall to report, and as soon as he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was obviously injured and had rushed too fast, causing his blood to rush to his head!

The Prince of Yan's face darkened further. With all his elite troops mobilized and Consort Rong's help, he could only muster a total of 1,200 imperial guards and 300 private soldiers.

Can someone really be this fierce?

And this was all while he was with a woman!

Soon, the Prince of Yan received his subordinate's final report: the man, carrying his beloved, scaled the city wall in four steps and flew out!

The palace walls were eight zhang high!

"Go! Go now! Bring all the surviving officials to the Funing Palace! Tell Consort Rong to bring all the military officers' families here immediately! Have the imperial physicians treat the wounded as well! Everyone, be alert! We must surround the Funing Palace so tightly that not even a bird can fly in! Don't kill that eunuch yet; see if we can get any more information out of him!" Prince Yan ordered in quick succession.

Sheng Changbai inwardly cursed, thinking, "Pengqi is so brave; the Prince of Yan is clearly afraid. But the Prince of Yan reacted so quickly, and there are spineless people in the crowd. Wouldn't I become a hostage? Should I bravely face death now? I was quick to bite my tongue, but I don't know if my father is still alive. If I die, but my father is still alive, wouldn't Pengqi risk going into the palace to rescue him to make amends? Am I, Sheng Changbai, going to kill my father with my own hands today?"

The thought of this made his heart clench as if by an invisible hand, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
