The Junior Martial Sister Has a Spatial System

Chapter 29

"Little Five, how is your injury? Do you need help?" Xuan Little Three, who was uninjured, looked at the trace of blood on his junior sister's shoulder, his gaze deep.

"Big Brother Three, I'm fine, just a little scratch, I can handle it myself."

"Then I'll go and help General Su Yu." He then left with Xuan Little Four and Su Yu.

Su Yue, accompanied by Big White, entered the forest, washed Big White by the river, then checked the surroundings and found no one, so she took Big White and slipped into the space to treat her own wound.

The wound was not large, but it was quite painful.

Big White looked at her with concern: Master, there are so many bad people, and they are all so strong.

"Yes, gathering so many experts, that's quite a feat."

Big White: In two more days, we'll reach the Capital City, and I won't be able to openly accompany you anymore, so I can't help you fight the bad guys.

"That's fine, don't worry. Once we reach the Capital City, they won't dare to do anything. You stay in the space and take care of the herbs, don't let the little ones mess around."

Big White: Got it. That Snake Spirit Fruit, it looks like it's almost ripe, a bit red.

"Really? I was planning to give some to Big Brother Three as a gift. He and Big Brother Four have suffered a lot on this journey with me."

Big White: Hmm. I've had Little Flower stay over there, do you want to go take a look?

Little Flower? Su Yue chuckled secretly.

This Little Flower was a flower python that Su Yue had rescued on White Cloud Mountain, and after being kept in the space for years, nourished by the space, it had gained a lot of spiritual power, its body having grown several times larger, now several meters long, but Big White still called it Little Flower.

"No need, the last two days will only get more dangerous. I need to go out and help, I need to hurry."

Su Yue cleaned up the wound, applied some medicine, and simply bandaged it, changed into a clean set of men's clothing, and then left the space with Big White. She had to go see her grandfather.

As soon as she arrived at Su Huan's resting place, she felt something was off, "Who is it? Come out."

"Good hearing, Your Highness. I am Covert One, acting on the Emperor's orders to escort Your Highness and General Zhen Guo back to the Capital City."

"Your Highness? There's no princess here."

At this time, Su Huan also came out, hearing the words, "The Emperor sent you? Is he afraid this old man will die on the way?"

"General, the Emperor is concerned about Your and the Princess's safety, so he has sent me to lead the team to clear the way for you."

Su Huan narrowed his eyes, "You are the head of the Covert Guards Pavilion?"

"Yes."

"You're not in the Capital City protecting the Emperor, what are you doing here?"

"General, don't worry, the Emperor has people protecting him, and I've made full preparations before coming out."

"Hmph! Remember, this is my granddaughter Su Yue, not some princess, don't call her that nonsense."

"Yes, General. The twenty-eight Covert Guards who were following you, I've reorganized them, and I've arranged them to clear the way for you. I'll definitely ensure Your and the Princess's safe return to the Capital City."

"You... Hmph."

"I'll take my leave." The figure disappeared in an instant.

Su Yue stepped forward to support Su Huan, "Grandfather."

Su Huan patted her hand, "It's fine. I know I can't hide it from him, and I didn't want to hide it from him either, after all, he is your biological father. Although I resent him, resent him for taking Yun Er away but not being able to protect her, but, sigh, he is also a pitiful man."

Su Yue didn't say a word.

"As the saying goes, the imperial family is the most heartless, but our emperor has a heart, and he is dedicated, but it is precisely his dedication that has harmed Yun Er and you."

Su Yue had no particular feelings towards this foster father, a man who couldn't even protect his own woman, he was useless, she didn't want to talk about him, "Grandfather, what about my identity..."

"It's fine, the Emperor is not that stupid, he won't publicly announce your identity for now, when I return to the Capital City, I'll discuss it with him.

"Hmm, I'll just be the child of the Su family, I don't want to go to the palace, it's stifling."

"Okay, okay, just be the child of the Su family," Su Huan smiled broadly, "The Emperor's arrangement is just what I wanted, now you can all rest easy. Yue'er, this time I've dragged you into hardship."

"Grandfather, what are you saying, we are a family, of course we'll face difficulties together. Unless you don't consider me as one of your own."

Su Yue pretended to be angry.

"Family, of course you're family, it's Grandfather who misspoke, Yue'er, you're so magnanimous, right?" Su Huan coaxed his granddaughter affectionately.

"Hmph, then I'll forgive Grandfather this time, but don't do it again next time." Su Yue's proud and coquettish expression was endearing, making Su Huan burst into laughter.

Xuan Little Three and Xuan Little Four were watching from a distance, they had come over when Covert One appeared, but seeing no danger, they didn't show themselves.

"Big Brother Three, look at Little Five, she's much livelier now, completely different from when we were on the mountain. Is it because she's found her family?"

Xuan Little Four was full of envy, he also wanted a family.

Xuan Little Three could also feel the change in his junior sister, on the mountain she was taciturn, often going days without saying a word, just focusing on her study of medicinal herbs and poisons, but in the past few days since leaving the mountain, she had regained the youthful vigor of a young lady, this change was quite good.

"What, you also want a family?"

"No, not really, I don't even know who my family is, naturally I won't miss them. It's just that seeing Little Five have a family, it feels... kind of nice."

Xuan Little Four's pitiful expression made Xuan Little Three feel a little sorry for him.

"You do have a family, me, Little Five, Big Brother One, Big Brother Two, and the Master, we are all your family. We will all treat you well."

"Mm-hmm, I know. Then Big Brother Three, when we get to the Capital City, can you take me to eat roast duck? Big Brother One said the roast duck there is really delicious, I wonder if Great Qing's Capital City has it too. I also want to try all the big restaurants in the Capital City, hehe, Big Brother Three, you'll take me, right? You have money, since you've been out for so many years, Big Brother Three? Big Brother Three? Wait for me..."

Xuan Little Three couldn't stand his rambling, strode away, better go check on those injured.

Su Domain, Su Yu, and Su Yue were now in Su Huan's tent.

"Grandfather, just now there was a group of people in black armor with golden masks, they camped not far from us, but it seems they didn't intend to come over."

"Mm, I know, they came by just now, the Emperor's men, from now on, they will stand in front to block the way, you can all relax a bit. How are your injuries, Yu'er?"

"It's nothing, Grandfather, just superficial wounds, they'll heal with some rest. Those troops looked to be seventy or eighty strong, and their skills seem quite formidable, obviously not ordinary soldiers. Are they really the Emperor's men?"

"You don't need to worry about these people, their strength is something you can trust. Just rest well today, we're not rushing anymore. Now, how are the casualties?"

Su Domain and Su Yu immediately darkened their faces, this assassination attempt had resulted in heavy losses, they had just finished tallying the numbers, and it was truly heartbreaking, "Five hundred of our Su family guards, one hundred and twenty-eight lightly injured, fifty-six severely injured, seventeen dead. Of the five thousand troops, one thousand one hundred and fifty-six dead, eight hundred and twenty lightly injured, two hundred and thirty-five severely injured."

Su Huan let out a long sigh, "Record the deceased clearly, return to the Capital City and distribute the condolence money accordingly, and make sure the injured are well cared for."

"Understood, Grandfather."
