The book will enter V tomorrow and is considering adding more updates. The most likely scenario is that it will maintain three daily updates for the first half of the month. Since VIP chapters can be pre-released, the update time will also be more stable. However, I'll notify you again tomorrow about the specifics.

  Everything went as Wei Luo had expected, and for the next month, she lived very comfortably. The Marquis of Jing Ling was mostly in the military camp, and when he occasionally returned to the manor, he was always in a hurry.

  He couldn't spare time for Weiluo, so Weiluo spent a lot of time practicing swordsmanship. She found that compared to the explosive strike that night, which was coincidental, the sword energy she had been cultivating since then was far inferior. Weiluo really wanted to relive that feeling, she liked the subtle feeling that everything was under control.

  After a month of preparation, he set out on schedule to take his revenge. He issued a declaration of war against the powerful Qin state to the west and then led his army into battle.

  Jingling's subordinates have one million armored soldiers, and these armored soldiers are not ordinary. In this era of scarcity, even a single piece of armor with copper plates on the chest, or a long spear, would cost a lot of money to equip. Moreover, among his one million troops, there were also 2,000 war chariots accompanying them!

  In short, Jingling's military strength alone has already accounted for half of the strong Jin! His million troops are indeed a mighty and powerful army.

  He had little time to prepare, and when he arrived at the Qin border with 100,000 armored soldiers, the Qin people were still making preparations for war and hadn't even armed their troops in time! He really came too quickly!

  Not to mention the successive victories of Jinling on the battlefield, let's take Duke Jin as an example. Since Jinling left, he has repeatedly sent orders to reprimand Gongzi Jinling, who is already on the front line, and the excuses he finds are all trivial matters, such as being unfilial to his father and being arrogant and reckless.

  Under this pretext, the Qingling Mansion became increasingly deserted day by day. Those officials close to Qingling were demoted one after another, and other officials also began to shrink away in fear.

  However, just over a year later, the princes and the Marquis of Jin became increasingly indifferent to the Jingling Mansion, and the ministers close to him became more and more miserable. Almost overnight, three princes were assassinated! Several high-ranking officials who had risen to power in the past year also died suddenly at home, and various forces behind them suffered devastating blows.

  Then, He Ji and her brother Chen also suddenly fell seriously ill, hovering between life and death. Especially He Ji, originally a beautiful woman with a thousand charms, overnight lost all her hair and eyebrows, her face showing the swelling and dark purple color of a ghost, becoming a pitiful sight!

  Two months later, for some unknown reason, the Marquis of Jin suddenly issued a decree to heavily reward Gongzi Quanling, who was fighting outside, and appointed him as the Crown Prince!

  When these things happened, countless rumors of ghosts and gods were spread out, although some people suspected that Gongzi Jingling was behind it, but he was far away in the border town, his subordinates and important guests, ministers all followed him to go on an expedition. No one had any evidence to prove it.

  Moreover, unbeknownst to them, the people have always heard about the benevolent deeds of Duke Jing of Qi, and this voice completely overwhelmed the voices that spoke of his cruel and treacherous harm to many ministers.

  By then, Duke Jing of Jin had twelve sons left with nine remaining. As the Crown Prince Chong'er laid siege to three cities in Qin, his martial prowess was also praised by the people of Jin.

  Of course, these things have nothing to do with Wei Luo. She is just diligently practicing her swordsmanship. Her longing for strength and the rare tranquility made her devote all her energy and spare time to this.

  Her swordsmanship was also advancing rapidly.

  After Wei Luo demonstrated her sword skills in front of the Duke of Jingyang, she relaxed and could practice freely. Now when she practiced sword skills, it was no longer just practicing basic sword techniques like cutting and slashing against fixed objects. She began to observe how birds flew, fish swam, eagles swooped down, and rabbits jumped.

  She was originally a personal maid of the Prince of Jingling, and her job was to serve the Prince of Jingling. Now that the prince is not around, there is no one to manage her, and there is no specific task for her to work on. She can enter the back mountain of the Jingling Mansion, which stretches for tens of miles, but still within the scope of the Jingling Mansion. During the day, she can stay in this forest as much as she wants, only needing to return at night to sleep, and no one will bother her. She can climb tall trees to observe the movements of eagles all day without coming down.

  This is a world full of spiritual energy, Weiruo begins to feel the caress of the wind, the entanglement of rain, the power of thunder and lightning, and the scorching heat of fire. Every change in the heavens and earth makes her unconsciously think of swords.

  Learn from nature, learn from animals, and gain insight at the time of Wei and Luo.

  She switched from a wooden sword to a bamboo one, and when the bamboo sword broke, she replaced it with another. As for copper swords, she had long been able to wield them with ease, but for Wei Luo, these wooden and bamboo swords were better - they could be placed in her sleeve pocket or inserted behind her waist without any weight burden, nor would they attract other people's astonished gaze. After all, her figure had never developed horizontally, so it didn't fit the image of a tall and majestic swordsman that people recognized.

  Before I knew it, two and a half years had passed.

  Wei Luo estimated that this body of hers should be around sixteen or seventeen years old.

  In two and a half years, her height has increased significantly. Since she started menstruating two years ago, her feminine features have also become more pronounced. Her buttocks are becoming rounder, and her flat chest is starting to swell. Long-term exercise has given her body every curve, full of soft power and beauty.

  And her skin, more and more crystal clear. Possibly because the exposed skin has been under the protection of green medicine for a long time, her current skin is even better than when she first crossed over. It's not only fair, but also crystal clear, with a hint of red glow. Now her whole body is written all over with the word "youth".

  As for her appearance, Wei Luo, who has been focusing on swordsmanship, has never carefully examined herself. Now that she can disguise herself and move in the dark, she also subconsciously feels that the more beautiful one's appearance is, the more unfavorable it is to her, so she almost never takes a look at what she looks like.

  She vaguely knew she was very beautiful.

  Her eyes were like black jade, with large and cold pupils, yet shining with a flowing light. This made her think that when she wore men's clothes and painted her face black, the shadow flashing by in the lake would make people suspect her appearance just by looking at her eyes.

  Because of this body's development, because of these eyes, Wei Luo painstakingly practiced, she not only mastered the disguise techniques on the bamboo slips, but also had considerable experience in concealing her figure.

  Finally, she began to whiten her complexion a bit, and she worked hard to make the rest of her features match up with her eyes. It made people feel that when they saw her at first glance, they thought she was a young man who had grown a pair of good-looking eyes, delicate and spirited.

  Just as Wei Luo was indulging in swordsmanship and enjoying the joy of freedom, news came from the border that Gongzi Jingling had abandoned the five cities he had fought for more than two years after Qin cut off six cities and presented them to Zhou Tianzi, formally returning those six cities to Jin State, and led his army back to Xin Tian!

  The new field is boiling!

  The young master of Jingling has returned! He defeated the powerful Qin and returned triumphantly!

  But for Wei Luo, it was a bit unpleasant. She couldn't do anything about her unhappiness. Although her swordsmanship had made great progress, as she improved, she suddenly discovered that a strong aura was often emanating from the Jingling Fu. According to her estimation, there must be at least one master-level expert in this mansion, and it was very likely that there was more than one!

  At this time, she suddenly remembered the sword that she had blocked for Prince Jingling two and a half years ago. She was afraid that at that time, there were also masters of the Zongshi level secretly protecting him, so even if she didn't show up, nothing would have happened to him. No wonder he said that his actions were "unnecessary".

  Not to mention the top-notch masters, almost all of those who walk in Jinling Mansion are swordsmen. Moreover, most of them are mid-to-high-level! The swordsmanship she practiced for three years in Weiluo is probably just enough to be on par with one of them. To say that she can rely solely on her swordsmanship to leave Jinling Mansion is impossible.

  Because, behind the mountain forest wall, from time to time there is a strong breath flowing out. It can be said that every place in Jinling Mansion has a master guarding it, and no matter which corner you enter or leave Jinling Mansion, someone will be alerted.
