You were driven out of the capital at the start, and you ask me why I rebelled?

Chapter 174 The Frustrated Xiong Yue

The defensive array at Langyu Pass was as if it were made of celestial gold, unbreakable and without the slightest change.

This made him a little depressed.

He was full of confidence in taking over Bai Feng's position and eager to make a name for himself.

But in the end, his own contributions were not even as great as Bai Feng's.

Although Bai Feng was seriously injured by Chang Yuchun, he had to go into seclusion to heal his wounds.

However, they did manage to severely damage Luo Jiebin, a general of the Huangfu Emperor's dynasty.

Unlike me, who has been here for so long and hasn't even had the chance to fight against the people of Qin.

Now, the Qin Dynasty has successfully advanced, but they are still blocked outside Langyu Pass and cannot make any progress.

He already knew how furious the Heavenly Fox Emperor would be upon returning to the Heavenly Fox Dynasty.

"Ugh!"

Thinking of this, Xiong Yue sighed.

He rubbed his head, looking somewhat troubled.

"Somebody come!"

Xiong Yue shouted.

Upon hearing Xiong Yue's summons, a demon soldier rushed in.

"General!"

"Go and invite Her Highness the Princess here!"

Xiong Yue gave the instructions.

"Here!"

The demon soldier jogged away.

Before long, Bai Jinyue arrived at Xiong Yue's tent.

"your Highness!"

Xiong Yue bowed to Bai Jinyue.

"General Xiong Yue, there's no need for such formalities. This is a military camp, and you are the commander-in-chief of the army! These customs are unnecessary!"

Bai Jinyue waved her hand and said.

"it is good!"

Xiong Yue nodded without refusing, as he had never been interested in these human customs anyway.

If it weren't for the strict orders of the Celestial Fox Clan that all demons of the Celestial Fox Dynasty must learn human etiquette, he wouldn't have done this.

In his view, demons should act like demons and should follow their own nature.

In his eyes, those things of the human race were just fancy decorations, completely useless.

He dismissed it dismissively.

However, faced with the coercion of the Celestial Fox Clan, he had no choice but to learn these things.

It annoys him so much.

"General Xiong Yue, what brings you here?"

Bai Jinyue sat down and asked in confusion.

Since Xiong Yue took over command of the army from Bai Feng, the other party has never met with him alone.

He must have sent someone to summon me this time for some reason.

"This...Your Highness!"

Xiong Yue scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and said, "The defensive formation of Langyu Pass is really difficult to break through. I have tried all the methods available, but to no avail..."

"Based on my observation, it is impossible for me to break through this defensive formation by my own strength alone. I'm afraid only a powerhouse at the Great Ascension stage or above could break through it..."

Hearing this, Bai Jinyue guessed why Xiong Yue had summoned her.

So they want me to call for reinforcements!

Bai Jinyue covered her mouth and chuckled, "General Xiong Yue, there's no use in telling me that!"

"I'm not a Mahayana stage expert, I can't help you..."

Although she guessed Xiong Yue's intentions, Bai Jinyue pretended not to know.

He had already sought help from the Heavenly Fox Emperor once before.

As a result, Xiong Yue was moved here.

If we were to ask the Heavenly Fox Emperor for reinforcements again, that would be quite inappropriate.

Although the Heavenly Fox Emperor dotes on her, she cannot easily mess with the Mahayana stage experts of the Heavenly Fox Dynasty.

After all, there was still the Huangfu Dynasty watching over them. Every Mahayana stage expert of the Tianhu Dynasty was being closely monitored by the Huangfu Dynasty.

Last time, it took countless efforts to secretly send Bai Ying to the Great Qin Dynasty, just to keep it from the eyes of Emperor Huangfu.

If there were any more Mahayana stage experts being mobilized, the Huangfu Dynasty would definitely notice something amiss.

At that time, the Huangfu Dynasty will definitely not sit idly by.

Thinking of this, Bai Jinyue couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Bai Ying had been gone to Qin for so long, yet no news had come back.

Now that the Qin Dynasty has been upgraded to an imperial dynasty, Bai Ying has definitely failed.

Logically speaking, Bai Ying should have returned by now!

Why is there still no news about him?

As for whether Bai Ying might encounter any accidents, Bai Jinyue was not worried.

Although Bai Ying wasn't ranked among the top Mahayana stage experts in the Heavenly Fox Dynasty, she was still a Mahayana stage expert.

Moreover, he is a Mahayana powerhouse specializing in speed. Even if he is outmatched by the Qin army's siege, he should be able to escape.

"This...Your Highness! This humble general had no other choice."

Xiong Yue's face showed a look of distress as he lowered his head and spoke.

After all, this was too embarrassing. As a general who was ranked among the top in the Heavenly Fox Dynasty, he was actually stopped by a defensive formation and forced to ask for help.

If this gets back to the Heavenly Fox Dynasty, who knows how those guys will laugh at him.

"General Xiong Yue, don't be anxious. Qin has already become an imperial dynasty. Even if we capture Langyu Pass now, it will be of no use and will change nothing."

"I have already informed Mother about this matter. Now all we need to do is wait for Mother's next steps!"

Bai Jinyue comforted her.

"Sigh! That's all we can do now!"

Xiong Yue sighed and said.

This is the first time he has encountered such a severe setback since his rise to power, and it will be a stain on his life.

Tap tap tap~~

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside.

Then, a boy with white fur all over his body and a pair of fox ears on his head walked in.

"Bai Guang, what brings you here?"

Bai Jinyue looked at the person who had arrived and said with a surprised expression.

The young man before her was of the same clan, also a member of the Celestial Fox clan.

However, he usually served the Heavenly Fox Emperor and rarely left the capital.

The fact that they are here means something important must have happened.

"your Highness!"

Bai Guang bowed to Bai Jinyue.

Bai Jinyue waved her hand and said, "You haven't answered my question yet. Why are you here? Does Mother have something important to tell you?"

"Your Highness, the Emperor commands you to return to the capital immediately!"

Bai Feng said with a serious expression.

"Huh? Why?"

Upon hearing his words, Bai Jinyue's face flashed with a hint of doubt, and she asked.

"I don't know exactly what happened, but it seems to be related to Elder Baiying!"

Bai Guang shook his head and said.

"White Shadow?"

Bai Jinyue's expression changed.

"Has something happened to him?"

Bai Guang ignored her and instead looked at Xiong Yue.

"General Xiong Yue, the Emperor still orders you to stay here, but there is no need to continue the attack. You can simply garrison here!"

"At the same time, observe the Qin Dynasty's every move!"

"This... here!"

Although Xiong Yue was also full of doubts, he dared not disobey the Heavenly Fox Emperor's order.

"There's no time to lose, Your Highness. Please come back with me!"

Bai Guang looked at Bai Jinyue and said.

"Ah...Oh! Okay!"

Bai Jinyue was still reeling from what had just happened, her mind racing with thoughts of what had happened to Bai Ying.

She was slightly taken aback after hearing Bai Guang's words, but she still agreed that she would probably have to return to the capital to find out what happened to Bai Ying.
