The two of them were so close that they had to face each other.

Murong Xinyue looked at her best friend so timidly that she couldn't help but feel dissatisfied, so she strode forward to Yunze and said loudly: "Mr. Yun, Mingyue loves you deeply. Are you really as hard as iron and have no feelings? Or do you have someone else in your heart?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the one who was most affected was not Yunze himself, but Tantai Liyue beside him.

Her eyes were fixed on Yunze, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She thought to herself: Yunze, how would you respond to such a question?

Everyone present was waiting for his answer with curiosity and expectation, especially Diwu Mingyue, whose expression kept changing, sometimes shy, sometimes nervous, sometimes uneasy, and sometimes full of expectation.

"I have a sweetheart." Yunze said five words without hesitation.

This shocked everyone present.

Unexpectedly, Yunze was so frank.

When Diwu Mingyue heard Yunze's answer, her expression was visibly disappointed, lost, and sad. Tears rolled in her eyes, but she held them back.

However, no matter who saw her current appearance, they would understand that she liked Yunze.

This made Tan Tai Liyue's heart very entangled and complicated.

She didn't know whether the sweetheart her apprentice was talking about was herself, but she was also afraid that she would get deeper and deeper into this relationship and couldn't extricate herself.

She kept reminding herself that the relationship between her and Yunze was just a mutually beneficial one, and everything she did, including cooperating with him, was not because she fell in love with him, nor because she was lewd, but because she had to do so under the threat of the other party.

She always used these reasons to comfort herself and told herself not to be too obsessed with this relationship.

After all, the relationship between them was too special and sensitive.

Once discovered, her image would be greatly damaged.

"Report to the city lord, the 20,000 troops of the White Tiger Empire are only half an hour away from the Never-Sleeping City."

The Fifth Tianba nodded slightly, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect the other party's marching speed to be so fast. It seems that the other party is determined to attack the Never-Sleeping City.

However, just as he was thinking about the response strategy, a subordinate hurried over and reported the latest situation anxiously.

"Report to the city lord, the Cheetah Mercenary Group hired by the Jucai Chamber of Commerce, led by several earth spirit realm cultivators, is only half an hour away from the Never-Sleeping City!"

When everyone heard the news, they immediately showed nervousness on their faces.

The Jucai Chamber of Commerce actually hired the Cheetah Mercenary Group, which was something they had never expected.

You know, the Cheetah Mercenary Group is a well-known existence in the Western Wilderness. They are composed of a group of thieves and are famous for killing people and robbing goods.

Even the regular army is helpless against them.

Just as everyone was trying to digest this shocking news, another subordinate hurried over and reported worse news in a panic: "City Lord, something bad is happening! The Azure Dragon Empire, led by the Crown Prince Ye Xing, has sent 20,000 troops to the Never-Sleeping City!"

"What? The Azure Dragon Empire is really coming?" Murong Xinyue was also shocked when she heard the news, and she couldn't help but take a breath.

She didn't expect Ye Xing to really dare to attack the Never-Sleeping City. Could it be that he really wanted to harm her as Yunze said?

Can he predict the future?

If it is really as Yunze said, what should she do?

If she is caught by Ye Xing, will her mother be threatened by the Azure Dragon Empire?

Thinking of this, Murong Xinyue bowed to the Fifth Tianba and said, "Fifth City Lord, Mingyue, I will go back to the Suzaku Empire to ask for help and come to help you."

"Niece, thank you."

"Xinyue, be careful."

Just when Murong Xinyue turned around and prepared to leave the Never-Sleeping City and return to the Suzaku Empire to ask her mother Murong Yunzhu for help, Yunze stopped her, "If you believe me, don't leave the Never-Sleeping City. There are enemies outside now. You will be caught as soon as you go out."

Murong Xinyue paused and said lightly, "Don't worry, I won't be caught that easily, not to mention that I have a protector."

As she said, she left the hall without looking back.

Yunze shook his head, thinking: You will cry soon.

"Boom boom boom --"

"Kill, kill, kill --"

The sound of war drums came from outside, the sound was deafening, and the whole city lord's mansion seemed to tremble.

This battle seemed to tear the earth apart, and the excitement

The drumbeats were like a powerful force, impacting everyone's heart.

As the drumbeats became louder and louder, the shouts of the soldiers of the Black Armor Army of the White Tiger Empire outside also rose and fell. This sound was as surging as the tide, which shocked people.

"Report to the city lord, the White Tiger Empire, under the leadership of the great general Yelu Hu, has deployed 20,000 Black Armor Army soldiers under the city. They said that we should hand over Yunze, and then let them bring the young city lord Diwu Mingyue back to the White Tiger Empire and let the Never-Sleeping City go..."

After listening to the report from his subordinates, Diwu Tianba glared, his hair stood on end, and his whole body burst out with a breath. He directly shattered the stone table with one palm and roared: "This is too much! Come on, gather the troops and follow me out of the city to fight. I am not scared."

"Father, I will go with you too."

Diwu Mingyue said immediately. She put away her previous feelings, her eyes became extremely firm, and her face showed a resolute look, as if she was ready to die.

"As expected of my daughter." The Fifth Tianba looked at his daughter with satisfaction, his eyes full of admiration.

At this time, Yunze looked at Tan Tai Liyue and opened his lips slightly, "Master, this matter was caused by my disciple, I can't sit idly by. I request to go to the battle with the Fifth City Lord and others."

In front of outsiders, he still had to give Tan Tai Liyue full respect.

Tan Tai Liyue's face was cold, and her eyes like deep pools flashed with unfathomable light. She nodded slightly and said firmly: "Although our Wangyou Sect is not a super sect, we have never been afraid of anyone. I will go with you."

Hearing this, Yunze felt a warm current in his heart.

He looked at his master with tears of gratitude, and then he playfully threw a wink to Tan Tai Liyue.

However, this move scared Tan Tai Liyue so much that she quickly turned her head away and quickly avoided his teasing eyes.

If other people see it, will her cool and aloof personality still exist?
