My Wife is A Sword God

After reciting the entire contents of Sun Tzu’s Art of War, Liu Tianlu closed his eyes and pondered, as if savouring its secrets.

On the other side, Lie Ying rubbed his chin, looking like he was in deep thought.

Seeing this, Qin Feng nodded slightly. Although General Lie was impulsive, he had years of experience in leading troops in major battles, and he was indeed in tune with the Art of War.

Unexpectedly, Lie Ying showed his true face after a short while: “Damn it, why is your military strategy so obscure and hard to understand? Can’t you just be straightforward and tell us when we can attack directly?”

Feeling a sense of disappointment, Qin Feng’s expression stiffened.

At this moment, the old man opened his eyes and sighed lightly, “Such military strategies are impossible to understand unless one has been in constant warfare and has deduced the art of warfare to the extreme. How did you come to understand it?”

As the God Of War of the Great Qian Army, Liu Tianlu naturally understood the value of this military strategy. He believed that given Qin Feng’s age and experience, he would not be able to understand such a strategy.

Prepared with a ready excuse, Qin Feng replied, “There is a place in the National Academy that houses a variety of books. This military strategy is one of them. I was also astonished when I saw it.”

“I see,” Liu Tianlu nodded slightly, agreeing with this explanation.

“This military strategy is too profound. I have only memorised its contents and have only a partial understanding. Later, I can write down the strategy, and I believe with your ability, the strategy will surely shine in your hands.” Qin Feng said.

“Good.” Liu Tianlu nodded in agreement; indeed, this military strategy could be of great use to him.

Upon hearing this, Lie Ying became worried and scratched his head. 

After returning to Imperial City, he had heard many military officers praising how powerful this military strategy was. Now that he had heard it all but couldn’t use it, wasn’t it all in vain?

Wait, what was the first sentence of this military strategy?

He looked at Liu Tianlu and Qin Feng. After their previous quarrel, it wasn’t realistic to shamelessly ask for advice on military strategy. In this case, he had to find a way to bring Qin Feng under his command and make him a more reliable military advisor.

However, when he looked at Liu Jianli beside Qin Feng, Lie Ying felt annoyed. He blamed his wife’s womb for being uncooperative and unable to produce a beautiful daughter like the Liu family girl.

The six-year-old girl at home was no match for the Liu family’s daughter.

While Lie Ying was lost in thought, Liu Tianlu suddenly asked, “Some time ago, a water dragon appeared in the southern region and caused trouble with a group of snake demons. You led the Military War Duke Army to suppress it. Did you notice anything unusual?”

Lie Ying’s train of thought was interrupted, and he replied impatiently, “What could be unusual? That water dragon was only at the sixth level of the calamity cycle and couldn’t withstand a few of my blows.” 

“As for those snake demons, they were nothing but trash, far from being an opponent for the Military War Duke Army. Wait, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me?”

Liu Tianlu shook his head and sighed. It was indeed not easy to communicate with this stubborn man.

“When I went to the southern region to solve the demons and ghost problems, I found frequent flooding.” 

“On my way back to the city, I encountered a change in the weather. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a shadow swept across the sky. If my guess is correct, it was a dragon.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng’s chopsticks stopped.

His younger brother had mentioned this in a letter earlier.

Lie Ying frowned, “Now that you mention it, I remember something. When I killed the water dragon, it roared towards the sky and attracted thunderbolts. However, the thunder struck too crookedly.”

“At the same time, a shadow seemed to pass over the clouds.”

“At first, I thought that the thunder was Water Dragon’s innate supernatural ability before he died, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.”

Seeing Liu Tianluo’s slightly serious expression, Lie Ying said in a deep voice, “What is going on? When we attacked the Garuda Clan, the Dragon Clan was still our ally. Are their current actions a declaration of war against the human race?”

Qin Feng was startled as he thought of Miss Cang. If the Dragon Clan and the human race became enemies, how would he face Miss Cang in the future?

You know, there is still a Dragon Bead in his body that has not yet been returned.

Father Qin had a strange expression on his face when he heard this.

His second mother looked worried.

The strength of the Dragon Clan was well known. Right now, the Great Qian Four Domains have to fend off the invasion of four powerful outside tribes.

If the Dragon Clan turns from an ally to an enemy, the situation for the human race will only become more dangerous.

However, the God Of War Father-in-law shook his head, “If the Dragon Clan really wants to declare war on the human race, the thunder would have struck at your head, not elsewhere.”

“As for the floods in the southern region and the Dragon Clan’s activities, I have checked with various sources since my return. I haven’t heard of any major disasters caused by them. Their actions seem more like a warning than a prelude to an attack?”

“Warning?” Lie Ying cursed, “Have I done anything outrageous to warrant their warning? Could it be that the Water Dragon I beheaded was someone important from the Azure Dragon Lineage?”

“If that’s the case, then the guy with the thunder was really worthless. After the Water Dragon head was chopped off, all he dared to do was to fart thunder into the sky. If it were me, I would have definitely raised a storm.”

This vulgar speech left everyone unsure of how to react.

Qin Feng smiled, “General Lie, this warning is directed at the human race, or perhaps a specific person, not necessarily you.”

As for that specific person, according to Qin Feng’s guess, it’s either Commander Nan Tianlong of the Southern Region or the current emperor.

After all, there was such a big commotion in the Southern Territory, but it was just loud thunder and small raindrops. It must be a threat to the superiors.

But what are the Dragon Clan up to?

On the other side, in the Hundred Flowers Valley of the Southern Region, the black-clad beauty reclined lazily on a long bench, her eyebrows tucked into a handkerchief.

As she gazed up at the valley, her multi-coloured eyes seemed to penetrate thousands of miles to reach somewhere else.

Dark clouds covered the sky and thunder roared incessantly.

Cang Mu’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, her tone carrying a hint of complaint, “Are those fellows in the clan so idle that they spend their days flashing lightning and thunder, disturbing my peaceful sleep? Even the old master seems oblivious to it.”

“Speaking of which, after cultivating by the Heavenly Pool for so long, that girl should have woken up by now, right?”

“However, I didn’t expect that the lad from the Qin family would stir up so much trouble within Imperial City. He seems to have forgotten the favor of a beautiful woman. Does he really expect the woman to take the initiative?”

Suddenly, Cang Mu seemed to remember something and stood up from the long bench, “Did I tell the Qin lad the method to find Heavenly Pool that girl’s father asked me to? Did I say it or not?”

She vaguely remembered being attracted to the poem written by the young man from the Qin family, but she was so absorbed in it that she forgot to explain anything.

Now that she thought about it, it seemed to be about finding the Heavenly Pool?

At that moment, a bolt of lightning struck above Hundred Flowers Valley and landed directly on her head.

Cang Mu waved her right hand and a message entered her mind.

Her lips opened slightly under the square scarf, “Maybe I really did forget. Forget it, it’s been a long time since I visited Imperial City. It’s a good opportunity to take another look.”

“The old man got angry, and it will be hard to put an end to this matter.”

“But it’s not my fault. Having lived for too long, it’s inevitable that my memory will be poor.”
