"How long did we use for this war?"
On the way back to the imperial capital, the Empress asked the soldiers around her.
"Your Majesty, seven days." One of the soldiers replied.
"Seven days!"
Xia Zhuyuan was shocked again.
"Senior Chen was right again. He had said that I'll be more relaxed after seven days."
Xia Zhuyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
She was indeed feeling a lot more relaxed now.
On one hand, it was because the war had ended.
On the other hand, her period had also ended.
"Senior Chen is right for everything. Since I fought a bloody battle and only won the war with his help, I must thank him at once."
Xia Zhuyuan led the three armies and ordered, "Pass on my order. We will go to Guizu Mountain first!"
The armies were all shocked.
The Empress had just won the war beautifully. Shouldn't she return to the capital and hold a country-wide celebration?
Moreover, the Prime Minister and all the other officials were waiting at the entrance of the imperial capital.
Why were they suddenly changing directions?
Where was the Empress going?
With doubts in their minds, a thousand warships arrived at Guizu Mountain, and what shocked the hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the warships, even more, was that when the Empress got off the warship, she had changed into plain clothes.
Instead of being stern and serious as she usually was, she was smiling like a little girl.
Ah, it was too sweet.
The soldiers were all dazzled.
At the same time, they were curious as to who the Empress was visiting.
Why was she revealing such a girlish attitude?
Unfortunately, they did not have the opportunity to accompany her and could only wait outside. Only Nightingale, the commander of the Embroidery Pavilion, and Zhang Mu, the Holy Envoy of the Astronomy Observatory, accompanied the Empress.
In Dama Village, Aunt Li ran over quickly, "Xiao Chen, your wife is here to see you again. They are quite polite. They asked me to inform you first and promised to only come in after you agreed."
Wife?
Chen Xuan realized that it was probably a blind date arranged by Auntie li.
He had nothing to do anyway, so it wouldn't do him any harm to meet the other party.
Xia Zhuyuan and the other two arrived quickly. Seeing Chen Xuan grinding some herbs, they didn't dare to disturb him.
"It smells so good. I wonder what senior Chen's herbs are made of, but just by getting a whiff of the fragrance, I feel that the fatigue of seven days of bloody battle has been swept away," Xia Zhuyuan sighed in amazement.
Zhang Mu took a deep breath, "Senior Chen's products are definitely extraordinary. It might even be a divine medicine. I should inhale as much as I can."
God, it was quite addicting.
Zhang Mu took in a deep breath.
"Are you feeling more relaxed now?"
Chen Xuan asked Xia Zhuyuan after he was done with his business.
"Very much so," Xia Zhuyuan said, "Although I've lost a lot of blood, everything has ultimately come to an end... Oh right, senior, I'm here to return the item that you've given me."
As she spoke, she handed over the Angelic Wings.
"Have you used it?" Chen Xuan asked awkwardly.
Xia Zhuyuan said, "Yes, I have. It is indeed very effective."
Chen Xuan frowned.
Even though she was very pretty with a good figure and a great temperament, he simply didn't have a hobby of collecting such things!
Why was she giving him a sanitary pad that she had used?
"Since you've used it, just throw it away," Chen Xuan replied casually.
"Throw it away?"
Xia Zhuyuan was stunned.
This was a water-type magic item that almost sucked Wei River's water dry.
To think the senior wanted her to throw such a magic item away after it was only used once.
Senior Chen was generous and rich.
Xia Zhuyuan thought about it and put the Angelic Wings away.
"Oh right, senior, this is my spoils of war from this trip. You've helped me a lot this time. This item..."
Seeing that senior Chen would not take back the "magic item" that she had used, Xia Zhuyuan thought about it and handed over the Blood Soul Flag, the spoils of war that she had seized from the battle with the Tianmo Sect. This was a magic item close to the celestial level, and she hoped that it would catch senior Chen's eye.
What was this?
Looking at the blood-red flag that was in tatters, Chen Xuan could already smell the stench of blood just by holding it in his hands. He could not help but fan it.
"I don't want this kind of trash."
Chen Xuan shook his head to get rid of the smell, then threw the Blood Soul Flag back to Xia Zhuyuan.
What he did not know was that the 100000 blood souls sealed on the Blood Soul Flag had all evaporated in an instant after passing through his hands!
Xia Zhuyuan took the Blood Soul Flag and was immediately dumbfounded.
There were originally 100000 blood souls suppressed in this flag. Now, just by being grabbed in the senior's hands for a second, the 100000 blood souls in the flag have all evaporated without even a need for refinement?!
The most important thing was that the level of the flag was not affected at all. Looking at the faint light of the righteous path flickering in the flag, it was now a magic item close to the celestial level!
What kind of terrifying power did the senior have to be able to do this?
To think he had purified a magic item that was close to the celestial level so easily!
"Many thanks for the senior's reward."
Xia Zhuyuan bowed repeatedly in excitement. Originally, she couldn't use the Blood Soul Flag, but after senior Chen's help, she could. It was equivalent to having a quasi-celestial-level magic item in her hands!
"It's yours, to begin with."
"The thing that senior gave me last time was also very useful. With one spray, it blinded the other party's eyes. Without it, the consequences would've been unimaginable," Xia Zhuyuan said.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan was greatly shocked.
What? His pepper spray had blinded someone else?
No way, no way.
He had given out the object for self-defense, not to blind people.
"Ahem, all of you must remember not to let the world know that I am the one who gave you the item."
