Chapter 413: Familial Relations Don’t Exist On The Battlefield

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The news of the imminent battle spread throughout the rock mountain. All the beasts automatically entered a state of preparation for battle. The atmosphere became very tense.

Ah Gui specially found Huanhuan and expressed that the Divine Wood clan was willing to join the battle!

When he arrived, Huanhuan was rolling out pancakes. As she stuffed the minced meat into the dough, she asked, “Is this your own opinion? Or is it the opinion of your entire Divine Wood clan?”

Ah Gui held his head high. “The entire Divine Wood clan!”

Huanhuan smiled. “You’re so young, but you’re so arrogant.”

“I’m not young anymore. I’m an adult!”

“Your body is of age, but your mind is still underaged.”

Ah Gui was indignant. “I’m an adult psychologically too! I’m an adult now!”

“Mature adults don’t represent others at will. It’s fine if you want to participate, but you have to go back and discuss it with your people first. After you’re sure everyone agrees, you can come to me about this.”

“But I…”

“I don’t want to hear the word ‘but,’” Huanhuan said as she carefully placed the meat pancakes in a pot that had been heated up with oil. She slowly fried them. “Are you staying for dinner with us?”

“No, I’m going back to eat with Aunt Xue Hui.”

Huanhuan picked up two fried meat pancakes, wrapped them in tree leaves, and handed them to him. “Take them.”

The smell of the meat pancakes made him swallow. He took the food with both hands and said awkwardly, “Thank you. I’ll get going.”

“Okay, bye!”

After Ah Gui left, Huanhuan continued to fry the meat pancakes slowly.

At this moment, all the beasts on the rock mountain were preparing for the upcoming battle. Even Big Goody was actively preparing for battle with her three younger brothers. Only Huanhuan was still in the mood to eat pancakes at home.

The box of ashes in the space was gone. Huanhuan guessed that Sang Ye must have found his father’s grave and buried his mother and father together.

She wondered where Sang Ye was now…

Huanhuan fell into a daze.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that the meat pancake was slightly charred. She quickly picked it up and put it aside.

Huanhuan took a new meat pancake and fried it in the pot. She asked casually, “Do you think we’ll encounter Xing Chen and Han Ying when we attack the demons this time?”

The system, which was focused on watching cartoons, was shocked and protested loudly, “Don’t casually mention the demon king’s name. What if he really appears?!”

“It can’t be that coincidental, can it?”

“What if it’s just that coincidental?!”

Huanhuan replied resentfully, “Alright, let’s not talk about him then. Let’s talk about Han Ying.”

As long as the demon king was not mentioned, the system would be calm. “Han Ying is the commander of the demon race’s army. If you want to kill any demons above the general level, you can consider targeting him.”

Huanhuan hesitated. “That’s not good, right? No matter what, he’s Sang Ye’s biological uncle. If I give birth to Sang Ye’s children in the future, the children will have to call him ‘Granduncle’.”

“As the saying goes, familial relations don’t exist on the battlefield. You have to kill even your children’s granduncle!”

Huanhuan still felt that this was not good. “There are many generals of the demon race. There’s no need to target Han Ying.”

The system asked, “But isn’t Han Ying the only demon general you’re familiar with?”

“Let’s wait and see. Golden Crystal City has already sent people to investigate. Perhaps they’ll bring back some useful information.”

Since she said so, the system could only wish them luck.

It was not until evening that Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and the children returned. Huanhuan brought out the fried meat pancakes for them to eat.

She asked, “How’s the training going?”

As he ate, Shuang Yun said, “Pretty good. Everyone’s morale is high.”

Bai Di poured two bowls of water for Big White and Little White. “I went to talk to He Guang. They’ve fought with the demon army a few times recently. They know the demon army better. He’s only seen two high-level demons above the general level. They’re both very strong. Unless we have experts above eight stars, we shouldn’t attack them easily.”

Huanhuan immediately thought of Xue Ling. “Xue Ling should be above eight stars, right?”

“Mhm.”

Huanhuan made the decision. “Then let him do it.”

Bai Di stroked her head. “There’s no hurry. I’ll discuss it with Xue Ling later.”

When Xue Ling returned, Bai Di talked to him and asked if he could help kill the demon general.

Xue Ling agreed readily. “Sure. As long as Huanhuan is willing to give birth to my children, killing even 10 generals won’t be a problem!”

Huanhuan wanted to hit him. She blushed and glared at him. “Can’t you be serious?!”

Xue Ling hugged her. “Having children is the most serious thing.”

Two days later, the troops of the other five beast cities arrived at the Black River one after another. They set up camp by the river.

They were not far from He Guang’s camp, but they maintained a clear attitude.

In view of He Guang’s status as a prince, when the five city lords first arrived at the Black River, they took the initiative to greet He Guang.

The five city lords did not want to waste time. When Shuang Yun arrived, they would immediately hold a cooperative meeting to discuss their next battle plan.

Logically speaking, the Rock Wolf Tribe was the main force in this battle. Shuang Yun was equivalent to the overall commander of the entire army. However, the other five city lords were all old foxes who had been in power for a long time. How could they be willing to give up their authority so easily?

They often had differences of opinion, but neither of them was willing to give in. They all insisted that they were right. The atmosphere was very unhappy.

At first, Shuang Yun would say a few words to mediate, but later on, he couldn’t be bothered and just sat still.

He leaned back and watched the five guys argue.

It wasn’t until they were tired of arguing that they stopped and looked at Shuang Yun together to ask why he wasn’t talking.

Shuang Yun smiled and said, “I’m a straightforward person. Compared to using my mouth, I prefer to solve problems with my fists. If you can’t come to an agreement, let’s fight. We’ll listen to whoever wins.”

The five of them fell silent.

As the city lord, he actually wanted to rely on fighting to decide who everyone should listen to. If word got out, it would definitely make people laugh their heads off.

In the end, it was the city lord of Golden Crystal City who took the initiative to say, “City Lord Shuang Yun, you’re the head commander. Give us your opinion and we’ll listen to you.”

Shuang Yun chuckled.

The city lord of Golden Crystal City quickly nudged the two city lords beside him. Although they were unwilling, this stalemate was not a solution. The two of them could only say, “We’ll listen to you.”

In the end, only the city lord of Blue Crystal City remained silent.

Everyone focused their gazes on him. He smiled helplessly. “Since everyone has said so, let’s listen to City Lord Shuang Yun.”
