Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 489: Chapter 208: Displaying Martial Arts Before His Son! The Great King Is in Danger!

Listening to Zhao Feng’s words.

Xia Dong’er also showed a smile on her face.

"How long are you planning to stay this time?" Xia Dong’er asked.

"The battle is settled."

"At least I can stay in Shaqiu for a month." Zhao Feng replied with a smile.

"A month would be nice, your mother can take a good look at you all." Xia Dong’er nodded cheerfully.

"Mother."

"This time we also want to take you to Xianyang."

"Staying alone in Shaqiu is ultimately inconvenient."

"As your daughter-in-law, I still want to be by your side and fulfill my filial duties." Wang Yan said with some probing.

Upon hearing about going to Xianyang.

Xia Dong’er immediately shook her head, her eyes filled with rejection.

"Shaqiu is good, I don’t want to leave."

"It is worthwhile if you can come back once a year." Xia Dong’er said warmly.

Seeing his mother so determined.

Zhao Feng could only shake his head helplessly: "Then let’s wait until you are willing to go to Xianyang."

But in his heart.

Zhao Feng pondered: "Why does it feel like mother is so rejecting Xianyang, as if there are monsters there, could it be that Mother lived in Xianyang before?"

Nowadays Zhao Feng is no longer the boy who had just left the village. Now he holds a high official position, having experienced much, he naturally thinks things through much more clearly.

"Housekeeper, go and prepare the meal."

"Everyone else can leave." Zhao Feng turned his head and said to the housekeeper.

"Yes."

The housekeeper led the servants away.

With no outsiders.

Zhao Feng sat down on the cushion in the courtyard.

Xia Dong’er also sat down.

The two little ones, Zhao Qi and Zhao Ling, clung to their grandmother.

"Mother."

"When I went to war with Wei, did anything happen at home?" Zhao Feng suddenly asked.

With the unexpected question.

Xia Dong’er was a bit dazed, a bit flustered at heart, hastily replied: "No?"

"But about half a year ago, there were some men in black who infiltrated the house."

"For espionage."

"It came quickly and left quickly as well." Zhao Feng continued to look at his mother.

"Ah, that matter, Mother knows of it."

"Concerning your Grandfather Xia."

"After your Grandfather Xia roamed the Four Seas, these people claimed to be Heibing Platform, specially investigating your Grandfather Xia’s whereabouts." Xia Dong’er immediately said with a smile on her face.

Upon hearing this.

Zhao Feng nodded with relief, it aligns with his thoughts.

Back then, only Xia Wuqie could have drawn the Heibing Platform out.

After all, he is King of Qin’s father-in-law!

"So that’s it." Zhao Feng nodded in relief.

But looking at his mother, Zhao Feng remained a bit uneasy.

"Mother."

"Your son is now Senior General of Qin, having offended some people in court."

"And with the demise of Zhao, Wei and Han three countries, who knows how many influential families perished by my hands, they hate me to the core, with such involvement, they might also resent you."

"I don’t oppose you staying at home."

"But you must be careful, even if leaving the house, you must have guards around you." Zhao Feng cautioned solemnly.

"Don’t worry."

"I usually stay in the house studying medicine, rarely going out."

"But Feng’er, you must be careful." Xia Dong’er said with deep concern.

"Mother, you don’t need to worry about me."

"I have trusted aides with me whenever I travel, and in this world if someone wishes to kill me, perhaps only an Immortal could." Zhao Feng jested.

Afterwards.

The family had a good meal together.

Full of warmth.

Yan!

In a small town.

In a small courtyard.

A group of people gathered there.

Among them, one dressed in plain clothes, without any imposing presence, seemed just like an ordinary person.

But just now.

A group suddenly appeared, and this seemingly ordinary person’s aura changed dramatically, releasing a killing intent, a sword in hand.

At this moment.

Yan Dan realized the person before him was indeed as his subordinates had said, a top-notch assassin.

Capable of completely concealing his aura, it was impossible to discern his true nature.

"None shall act."

"Fall back."

Disguised, Yan Dan shouted.

The guards beside him retreated, yet each kept their swords at the ready.

Looking at Yan Dan.

Jing Ke’s face showed surprise and puzzlement, but not sensing any killing intent, he put away his sword.

Upon seeing this.

Yan Dan’s face lit up with a smile.

Then.

He bowed deeply before the person in front: "Crown Prince of Yan, Ji Dan, pays respects to Mr. Jiang Qing."

Hearing it was the Crown Prince of Yan, Jing Ke’s face also showed surprise.

But then said: "Jiang Qing is gone, here remains only Jing Ke."

"Greetings, Mr. Jing Ke." Yan Dan hesitated not, saying again.

"The Crown Prince comes, for what purpose?"

"Could it be to hold Jing Ke accountable?" Jing Ke said calmly looking at Yan Dan.

"Mr. Jing Ke travels the world, wielding his sword against great evildoers, each death well-deserved."

"Ji Dan would never come to harm you." Yan Dan said with sincerity.

"Then why has the Crown Prince come?" Jing Ke asked.

Upon hearing!

Yan Dan remained silent.

From bowing deeply to suddenly, his knees buckled.

Directly kneeling before Jing Ke.

"Crown Prince."

"Why do you do this?"

"Crown Prince..."

The guards behind Yan Dan were surprised, attempting to help him up.

Even Jing Ke before him was startled by the sudden scene.

Upon hearing the guards’ words, as well as their approaching support.

Yan Dan waved his hand, signaling them all to withdraw.

He simply knelt there before Jing Ke.

As a commoner, a Crown Prince of a country kneeling before him, to say there was no inner turmoil would surely be a lie.
