"Well, you two must be secretly competing to see who killed the most scouts, let's talk about the answer." Shen Yan stood at the entrance of the sheep intestine trail in the south of Lingnan, and after seeing Fang Butong and Ding Sanlin leading his troops to arrive, a hearty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly.

"Adults still know us." Hearing Shen Yan's words, a smile appeared in Ding Sanlin's eyes.

"Lao Fang and I swept away all the White Lotus Sect scouts within a radius of twenty miles, and it was very clever that the two of us tied this time, and each team killed the same number of White Lotus Sect scouts."

"It's a coincidence, but it also shows that there is not much difference in strength between the two of you." Hearing Ding Sanlin's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he said slowly.

"This is just the beginning, there are many opportunities for you to compete later, as my right and left hand, I hope you have healthy competition, so that you will have greater motivation to develop your own strength, only the strength of the whole team has improved, and your value in this team will become greater."

"Thank you for your teaching, and I will definitely keep it in mind." Hearing Shen Yan's words with teaching meaning, Ding Sanlin and Fang Butong's eyes revealed a touch of understanding, and they responded loudly.

"My lord, Lao Pei burned down a White Lotus Sect's more than 2,000 soldiers in this sheep intestine path, won't the White Lotus Church also set up an ambush there, waiting for us to take the initiative to get in?" A trace of worry flashed in Zhu Mingxuan's eyes, and he looked at the slightly white sky in front of him and asked softly.

"Your worry is very likely to happen, after all, the original battle left too deep an impression on the White Lotus Sect, and the White Lotus Church can't guard against this hand, after all, if you want to bypass Lingnan County, the sheep intestine path is the only way, if the top level of the White Lotus Sect realizes that the imperial court wants to attack it, bypassing Lingnan is also a good choice, then the top level of the White Lotus Sect will definitely set up an ambush in the middle of the sheep intestine path, at least arrange some scouts." Hearing Zhu Mingxuan's words, a sharp light appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, looking at the looming sheep intestine path in front of him, Shen Yan thought about it seriously, and then said slowly.

"What do you mean?" Hearing Shen Yan's approval of his words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Mingxuan's mouth, he has been following Shen Yan for so long, and he has been showing Pei Xiangdong, Wei Chongan, Fang Butong and Ding Sanlin in Shen Yan, he seems to be a stranger in front of Shen Yan, so Zhu Mingxuan has always wanted to be recognized by Shen Yan in his heart.

I believe that in addition to himself, Guo Jinarc and Qin Huaian also have this idea, just as Shen Yan once said to himself and others: A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and correspondingly, a person who doesn't want to get a greater development platform is not a perfect person.

"Regardless of whether the White Lotus Sect has set up an ambush in the sheep intestine path, or has deployed scouts, perfection should follow this illusion." Shen Yan understands Zhu Mingxuan's thoughts, correspondingly, whether it is Zhu Mingxuan or Pei Xiangdong and others, as long as it is a reasonable suggestion or opinion, Shen Yan will praise and recognize, but Zhu Mingxuan is relatively calm, and he has not wanted to express himself before, then again, if Zhu Mingxuan does not have enough strength and ability, Shen Yan will not give Zhu Mingxuan and Pei Xiangdong the same position.

"Fang Butong, Ding Sanlin, the two of you each pick ten agile brothers to explore the way in front, if you encounter scouts, you will deal with them, if you find the army of the White Lotus Sect, find a way to dodge, don't think about any heroes, this is war, not personal heroism."

"The last general commands." Fang Butong and Ding Sanlin glanced at each other, knowing that this was Shen Yan once again giving the two of them a chance to compete, of course, this was not Shen Yan's trick to kill the three soldiers with two peaches, nor did it stimulate the two to enter a vicious circle, but to give Fang Butong and Ding Sanlin a fair chance to show their talents through the platform of competition.

A trace of tiredness appeared in Qiu Mubai's eyes, last night in order to discuss the matter of the White Lotus Sect, he almost didn't sleep all night, seeing the gray sky outside the window, a trace of helplessness flashed in Qiu Mubai's eyes, he and the courtiers suggested a lot of plans to the emperor, but the emperor didn't adopt one, just dragged it like this, as everyone knows, this drag is not good for the court, but it is a disguised help to the development of the White Lotus Sect.

"Yingxue, don't get up so early every day to boil water and cook for dad in the future." With a look of helplessness, Qiu Mubai stretched his waist and walked out of the room, seeing Qiu Yingxue busy boiling water, a touch of guilt appeared in Qiu Mubai's eyes, and the daughter of the dignified official Shangshu actually did foul language.

"Dad, it's okay, I've gotten used to it for so many years." Hearing Qiu Mubai's voice, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of Qiu Yingxue's mouth, and she didn't raise her head, she continued to talk rudely, and said in a witty voice.

"Yingxue, Dad really owes you a lot." Looking at Qiu Yingxue's virtuous appearance, a faint mist appeared in Qiu Mubai's eyes.

"It seems that it will be really cheap in the future, Shen Yan's kid."

"Dad, look at what you said." Hearing Qiu Mubai's soft muttering, a touch of crimson appeared on Qiu Yingxue's pretty face, and Shen Yan and his sweet words couldn't help flashing in her mind, as well as Shen Yan's words to her father after she came back.

"It seems that Yingxue has already begun to miss her lover, and her father won't be able to enjoy such treatment for a long time." Seeing Qiu Yingxue's demeanor, Qiu Mubai didn't understand Qiu Yingxue's careful thoughts, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she couldn't help but make fun of Qiu Yingxue.

"Dad, if you make fun of Ying Xue like this again, Ying Xue will ignore you." Qiu Yingxue stomped her foot slightly, letting out a hint of anger.

"Okay, when Dad is busy for a while, Dad will go to Shen Yan to have a good talk, I was expecting Shen Yan's kid to take the initiative to come to the door to propose, but that kid seems to be a little brainless, he is so unenlightened, and I haven't seen him so stupid in other things." A hint of doting appeared in Qiu Mubai's eyes, as long as Qiu Yingxue found her own happiness, as a father, Qiu Mubai would not interfere with the identity of the person Qiu Yingxue was looking for, in Qiu Mubai's mind, she would not do anything about climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.

"Dad, it's not that Brother Shen is unenlightened, but there are too many facts on his shoulders and he can't be busy, so he flawlessly takes care of his children's private affairs, but Brother Shen said that he will come to the door to propose marriage when he comes back." Qiu Yingxue's eyes showed a sweet smile, and she whispered Shen Yan and her own mountain alliance and sea oath.

"Yingxue, what did you say?"
