Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: Applying to Join the Battle

Yuwen Jun finished speaking and took a secret message from his sleeve.

The two took it and read the letter one by one, becoming more and more shocked as they read.

The letter mentioned the fall of Witch Ancestor Mountain.

A remnant force from the Imperial Capital was defeated after its guard at the Three-Branch Junction and then lay dormant in Ownerless Land, with Three-Branch Junction wide open like a gateway, extremely dangerous.

“Do you mean Yuwen Luanfei hid in Ownerless Land?” Yuwen Ji was shocked.

Thinking back, they had managed with great difficulty to entice Yuwen Luanfei deep into the Northern Lands, intending to catch him as if in a jar, but his whereabouts were exposed somewhere and before they could close the net, Yuwen Luanfei quietly slipped away.

Despite their vigorous pursuit, Yuwen Luanfei, this cunning rogue, escaped.

However, they did not know that Yuwen Jun almost caught Yuwen Luanfei, but just then, right in front of everyone, Yuwen Luanfei along with Bai Junjun and those mysterious men in black took a dragon and fled.

Yuwen Jun kept this matter secret, as if the two sides had never faced each other, and Yuwen Ji, receiving no news, naturally assumed that Yuwen Luanfei was taken by his old forces.

Now, matching Yuwen Jun’s information, Yuwen Luanfei’s whereabouts suddenly became clear.

“No wonder he couldn’t be found in the Northern Lands or Eastern Land; it turns out this brat slipped away early.” Yuwen Ji squinted his eyes, showing a look of malice.

“But, there are people from Witch Ancestor Mountain at Three-Branch Junction, how could Yuwen Luanfei have taken it?”

Yuwen Feng showed rare intelligence.

Yuwen Jun glanced at him: “I estimate that Third Brother’s old forces linked up with Second Brother, and a joint strong assault on Three-Branch Junction into Ownerless Land is not impossible.”

Yuwen Ji frowned: “Three-Branch Junction is a strategically contested location, previously belonging to Witch Ancestor Mountain, there’s nothing to say about that. Now that Witch Ancestor Mountain has been driven back to the mountain, it’s the perfect opportunity we cannot miss.”

“Father, your meaning is…” Yuwen Feng’s eyes widened, somewhat wanting to guess yet not daring to.

“Now Juner is injured, he should rest well in the Imperial Capital, Fengfeng, you lead a hundred thousand elite troops to Three-Branch Junction, you must drive out all the remnants of the rebels in Ownerless Land.”

“Yes.” Yuwen Feng was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, he would have such a great opportunity to accumulate military merit.

If he could capture Yuwen Luanfei alive, then his military merit would be secure.

“I will certainly not fail Father’s trust.” Yuwen Feng’s voice was loud, brimming with the unique vigor of youth.

Seeing him like this, Yuwen Jun also slightly curled his lips.

“Thank you, Brother, I hereby wish you great success upon your return.”

Yuwen Feng nodded: “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely come back before you ascend to the throne, and present Yuwen Luanfei’s head to you as a congratulatory gift!”

…

“Achoo!”

Far away in Ownerless Land, Yuwen Luanfei sneezed unexpectedly, rubbing his nose with a puzzled look.

This sneezing made Wenren Pingting anxious, and she hurriedly draped a coat over him.

These days, the autumn rain in Ownerless Land no longer falls constantly, but there’s certainly one bout every day.

And the weather is getting colder and colder.

However, they are short on supplies here, each person only has a set of autumn clothes and a set of winter clothes being made; for others, these autumn clothes are enough to withstand the current temperatures.

But for Yuwen Luanfei and her, who are pampered people, this attire is somewhat thin.

The two are now wearing autumn clothes and summer clothing over them; even so, they still feel cold in their hands and feet.

Today no less, Yuwen Luanfei doesn’t know how many times he sneezed.
