Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

Hearing this, Du Yuan's eyes flashed with a glint of light, and he nodded heavily. "Your son understands and will certainly live up to your expectations,义父."

After speaking, Du Yuan turned to leave, but Hei Muyuan suddenly stopped him. "Du Yuan, wait a moment."

Du Yuan stopped and turned to look at Hei Muyuan, his eyes full of doubt and anticipation. "What else do you need to instruct, 义父?"

Hei Muyuan took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Du Yuan. "This is the token of the Blackwood Guard. With this token, you can mobilize any member of the Blackwood Guard. Remember to act cautiously and never underestimate the enemy."

Du Yuan took the token, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew the weight of this token and understood his adoptive father's trust and expectations of him.

He nodded heavily again, then turned and left, disappearing into the night with his personal guards.

Outside Blackwood City, the lights of the military camp flickered in the night, like stars adorning the vast land.

Inside the military camp, except for those patrolling and guarding, everyone else was asleep.

"Order, assemble!" A loud command rang out in the military camp, shocking everyone's hearts like a thunderclap.

Du Yuan's personal guards quickly conveyed the order to the various generals in the military camp, and the camp immediately became busy.

The soldiers, who were sound asleep, were awakened,

quickly organizing their equipment, checking their weapons,

and preparing to receive the upcoming military orders.

As the order was conveyed, the soldiers in the military camp quickly assembled on the training ground.

They formed neat square formations, the weapons in their hands gleaming coldly in the firelight.

Du Yuan stood on a high point in the military camp, overlooking the assembled Blackwood Guard.

His heart was filled with ambition and determination. He knew the importance of this battle and understood the responsibility on his shoulders.

With the Red Lotus causing trouble outside and hidden ghosts lurking within,

the situation was becoming increasingly murky. It was likely that his adoptive father's True Qi Realm strength alone would not be enough to suppress the situation.

It was time to pull out the Blackwood Guard and flex some muscle.

"Brothers!" Du Yuan's voice echoed across the training ground.

"An unknown force has appeared in the city, committing ruthless acts of extermination at every turn.

Blackwood City is our home.

Can we allow these outsiders to commit such heinous acts in our home?"

The soldiers shouted, "No, we cannot!!"

"Very good. We are the warriors of Blackwood City,

behind us lies this land we deeply love and countless people who expect us to return in triumph.

For their peace and happiness, we must go all out!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, "For Blackwood City! For the people!"

Their voices echoed across the training ground, as if to shake the heavens and earth.

Du Yuan nodded in satisfaction. He turned to look at his personal guard beside him: "Pass down the order, the entire army will be fully equipped and accounted for,

in half an hour,

the entire army will attack,

following the plan to control all key routes and investigate all suspicious persons."

The personal guard quickly conveyed the order to the various generals, and the military camp became busy again.

The soldiers began to pack their bags, check their equipment, and prepare for the upcoming battle.

No matter who the opponent is, dares to cause trouble in Blackwood City?

Then they are courting death!!!

This is the military might of the Blackwood Guard!!!

At the same time, the situation in Blackwood City became increasingly tense.

In the dark corners of Blackwood City, an undercurrent was quietly surging.

Major forces have stepped up their precautions, and an unprecedented storm is quietly brewing.

The ears and eyes, and hidden stakes of the major forces, when they saw Du Yuan of the Blackwood Guard leaving the city, also knew that the ruler of this city was beginning to take action.

The major forces have stepped up their precautions, fearing that they would become victims in the upcoming storm.

The hidden stakes were busy shuttling through the corners, collecting the latest intelligence, trying to gain the upper hand in this game.

Half an hour had passed,

Du Yuan was clad in scaled armor, and with a wave of his plain saber, pointed straight ahead.

"Move out!"

With Du Yuan's thunderous "Move out!\

,"the sound of Blackwood Guard's iron hooves and horses' hooves intertwined into one, like a raging torrent, rushing out. Dust

In the flying earth, the figure of the Blackwood Guard was like a black net, sweeping towards Blackwood City.

Within the city, those forces hidden in the shadows were even more panicked.

They either cowered in secret rooms or hid in deep alleys, their eyes piercing through layers of curtains, trying to spy on the source and direction of this storm.

Every intersection of information, every disclosure by an informed person, exchanged a large amount of information.

"Lord, Du Yuan's departure from the city this time must be with a purpose, and may even directly mobilize the Blackwood Guard."

A hidden stake dressed in night clothes hurried back, kneeling in front of a gloomy-faced old man, and whispered.

The old man was Lin Aoyou, the head of the Lin family in the city. His eyes were like those of a hawk, sharp and cold.

At this moment, he was staring at the secret letter in his hand. There were only a few words on the letter, but they revealed an unusual meaning.

"Hmph, no matter what his plans are, my Lin family will never sit idly by."

The old man snorted coldly, turned the secret letter into ashes, then stood up and glanced at everyone present.

"Notify everyone to be on alert and prepare to deal with any possible changes.

In addition, transfer all the seeds of the family out, just in case."

After arranging his hand, Lin Aoyou returned to the secret room, waiting quietly for the opportunity to arrive.

At the same time, in another corner of Blackwood City, a seemingly ordinary mansion was brightly lit.

The owner of the mansion, an old man who was over half a century old but still energetic, was contemplating a huge map.

On the map, every key point of Blackwood City was carefully marked, as if the entire city's veins were under his control.

"Dharma King, Du Yuan has left with his troops, I am afraid that he is going to pull out the Blackwood Guard." A confidant hurried in and whispered.

The old man slowly raised his head, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "Good, it is precisely this time.

Huang Ping and the others died well!

It can be regarded as a great achievement for my sect.

Pass down the order, pay close attention to every move of the Blackwood Guard.

When my sect's army arrives, the situation in Blackwood City will be settled.

But remember, be cautious in your actions and do not startle the snake."

Deep within a luxuriously decorated mansion,

in a misty bathroom,

Lin Weichen was wearing a light gauze, leaning against a warm jade bathtub,

allowing the warm water to gently caress her skin, taking away the fatigue and troubles of the past few days.

Her eyes were no longer as sharp as before, but had a gentler and more contemplative look.

"Your Highness, the hot water is ready, do you need to add some fragrance?"

A maid asked softly, holding a few exquisite small bottles in her hand,

The bottles emitted a faint fragrance, which was refreshing.

Lin Weichen shook her head gently, indicating that it was not necessary.

"This is fine, you can all withdraw first."

Her voice was gentle and firm, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

The maids bowed respectfully and withdrew from the bathroom, leaving only Lin Weichen alone, immersed in this moment of tranquility.

Closing her eyes, Lin Weichen began to recall what she had seen and heard in Blackwood Mansion these past few days.

From the initial full of expectations when she first arrived here,

to the anger and helplessness after encountering soft nails,

to the current understanding of her father's painstaking efforts,

all of this was like a dream, yet so real.

She realized that although she was a noble princess,

in the complex and ever-changing political situation and martial world, she still needed to constantly learn and grow.

"Father, your daughter understands your intentions." Lin Weichen said silently in her heart, her eyes flashing with a firm light.

A true king not only needs to be able to fight well, but also needs to understand people's hearts and be good at weighing the pros and cons, in order to be invincible in the ever-changing situation.

This was what she had learned these past few days.

After bathing, Lin Weichen, wearing a simple nightgown, stepped out of the bathroom, and the oncoming cool breeze refreshed her.

She walked to the window, looked at the stars twinkling in the night sky, and already had a plan in her heart.

As the night deepened, Blackwood City seemed to be shrouded in an invisible haze.

On the streets and alleys, people whispered, their discussions full of unease and speculation.

And those who truly controlled the changes in the city,

were quietly laying out their plans beneath this undercurrent, waiting for that decisive moment.
