Jun Wuxian lowered his eyes to see Xun Qingqing wearing a look of bewilderment, he just smiled and remained silent, then he raised his head to look at the Soldier in front of him.

"Have you two recognized it yet?" Jun Wuxian glanced at the token in his hand and said, "There are three tokens in total, made of millennium cold iron, and the patterns on them are inimitable."

After the initial shock, the Soldier gazed at Jun Wuxian before him, anyone with eyes could see the noble aura he exuded, with a peerlessly handsome face that could hardly be cultivated in an ordinary household, he surely came from a noble family.

Although they had never seen this token, they had definitely heard of it.

This token belonged to the Dark Sect, countless had heard of it, but very few had ever seen one.

And as the most mysterious of the mystical sects, the Dark Sect was known to all.

Numerous people longed to join the Dark Sect, but couldn’t find their way in.

That was why they looked stunned upon seeing the character "Dark" on the token.

"You belong to the Dark Sect?" The Soldier’s tone changed as he spoke.

Jun Wuxian said, "Indeed, I wish to see King Jinyu to discuss an important matter."

Upon hearing this, the Soldier no longer obstructed them, "Please follow me."

Jun Wuxian nodded.

Xun Qingqing stared at Jun Wuxian in surprise, she had never asked him about his identity or family background, as to her, those didn’t matter as long as they liked each other, for her family was wealthy.

Seeing Jun Wuxian’s attire, which didn’t seem like someone short on money and his generous spending, he didn’t appear to be someone who agreed to marry her for money or career prospects.

Despite being somewhat lovesick, she couldn’t help it, who could blame her for being in love?

Now, she felt she had to look at Jun Wuxian in a new light, so impressive!

Jun Wuxian noticed Xun Qingqing’s puzzlement and whispered while riding, "I didn’t want to use the token, but I had no choice."

Xun Qingqing lifted her head and couldn’t help asking, "Why not use your identity?"

Jun Wuxian smiled and replied, "Do you care?"

Shaking her head, Xun Qingqing said, "I don’t really care, just curious." She then added softly, "I feel it’s very impressive."

Jun Wuxian couldn’t help but laugh, "I’m just someone passing by."

Admiration filled Xun Qingqing’s eyes, "Even so, that’s impressive."

Jun Wuxian, smiling, tightened his embrace around her waist and spurred his horse to follow the Soldier.

From a distance, they saw countless small white hills, indicating they had reached the Military Camp.

The entrance was smooth as well.

Although Xun Qingqing had been to many drill grounds, this was her first time at a military camp, and it left her in awe.

As they made their way, each Soldier they passed was as black as char from the sun, and their clothes were tattered. Passing by the tents, she even smelled the odor of stinky socks...

It’s no wonder her father said, "Aren’t the things you have good enough? Always complaining about this and that. Spend a couple of days on the Battlefield, and you’ll know how good your lives are."

The Soldier led them to a tent, which was furnished simply with a desk and four benches.

While preparing tea, the Soldier said, "Please wait here for a moment, once King Jinyu returns, I will report to him."

"Thank you," Jun Wuxian said as he and Xun Qingqing took their seats at the table.

The Soldier placed the teacups in front of them and then left.

After riding for so long, they both were a bit thirsty.

Xun Qingqing picked up the teacup and brought it to her lips to drink, her almond eyes wandering curiously around, "Axian, do you think Shen Chuwei has already found the Crown Prince? It’s been so long."

Jun Wuxian said, "Hard to say, we’ll know when King Jinyu arrives."

"That’s true," Xun Qingqing continued drinking her tea, lowering her head.

In fact, Daxia had already won. Xiao Jinyu had been discussing strategies with General Xun all this time because Xueyue Country and Fengqi Country lacked sincerity and their attitudes were wanting.

If only they had shown a better attitude and sincerity, Xiao Jinyu would have already led his troops back to the court by now.

He longed for his wife.

As he returned, a young Soldier ran to report.

"King Jinyu, someone is here to see you."

Xiao Jinyu dismounted from the horse with ease, patted the horse’s head, and asked nonchalantly, "Who is it?"

"A member of the Dark Sect, and another who claims to be General Xun’s daughter," the Soldier said.

Hearing this, General Xun revealed an incredulous look. His sister was dainty and delicate; with such a long journey, how could she possibly come to the Military Camp?

"My sister is here? Are you sure it’s my sister?"

The Soldier responded, "I am not certain."

Upon hearing about the Dark Sect, Xiao Jinyu was stunned for a moment before excitement filled his face, "Someone from the Dark Sect is looking for me? Is that true?"
