An Xuetang was indeed quite tired from her journey these past few days, so when Mo Yunjing was kissing her and she felt a lack of oxygen, she fainted.
Seeing her suddenly become still, Mo Yunjing’s heart skipped a beat. He thought something might have happened to her, but after checking, he found she had just fallen asleep. He then let out a sigh of relief.
Mò Yúnjǐng gently stroked her hair a few times, then scooped her up and put her on the bed.
After tucking her in, he stood by the bed for a moment, unable to bear the thought of her lying alone and cold. He took off his shoes and lay down beside her, and they shared the blanket until sleep came.
Mo Yunjing held her hand and stared at her peaceful sleeping face. At first, he didn’t feel sleepy at all. He couldn’t bear to take his eyes off her face, just wanting to lie with her for a while.
He could relax now, and the fatigue he’d been carrying for days suddenly broke through. He fell asleep as he lay there.
Eleven outside the door was acting like a door god, guarding the entrance.
At this moment, a monk suddenly arrived, “Master Shiyi, are you going to prepare dinner for everyone tonight?”
Eleven looked cold and shook her head. “No need, we’ll handle dinner ourselves.”
The monk nodded slightly. “Then well and good. If you need anything, just let us know.”
Eleven nodded slightly, “Good, thank you.”
The monk bowed to Eleven, his eyes scanning the room’s door with an unreadable expression.
Looking at the departing figure of the monk, Shi Yi’s sharp eyes narrowed slightly.
An Xuetang hadn’t slept for long. She was thinking about getting along well with Mo Yunjing, so she didn’t sleep very soundly.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Mo Yunjing woke up again, An Xuetang was lying on her side, propping her chin with one hand, a smile in the corner of her eyes as she looked at him.
Seeing him open his eyes, An Xuetang blinked and showed a row of white teeth, “Ajing, you’re awake?”
Mò Yúnjǐng’s mouth twitched into a slight smile, and he naturally reached out to pinch her nose, “Hmm, why don’t you sleep a little longer?”
An Xuetang laughed foolishly, “Because I want to see you for a while longer. After so many days apart, my dear Jing has become even more charming.”
“… ”
Mo Yunjing let out a light chuckle, “It seems like after so many days apart, he still needs to get used to your honeyed words.”
“Ajing, you slept for a long time today. Are you tired these days?”
With you here, I feel safe.
” ”
An Xuetang’s heart was filled with sweetness as she heard him utter such heartfelt words without hesitation.
The curve of her smile widened.
Before he could react, An Xuetang suddenly leaned in and quickly pecked him on the lips. After the kiss, she smirked, looking like a naughty little cat who had gotten away with stealing something.
Mò Yúnjǐng was also affected by her, and now he smiled. He suddenly changed the subject and said, “Has that kid caused you any trouble?”
An Xuetang knew he would definitely ask about Mo Junyi’s situation. She deliberately didn’t open her mouth to mention Mo Junyi to him, just to see when he would remember Mo Junyi.
“Ajing, if you’re worried about Ziling, just ask. I wouldn’t make fun of you.”
“Zi Ling is very good, he has his own ideas, and he has many of your characteristics. He thinks things through carefully in everything he does, which makes us proud of him.”
Mo Yun Jing twitched his lips, “This kid doesn’t take compliments well, don’t praise him like that.”
An Xue Tang hummed softly, then deliberately hugged his neck and rubbed against it lightly, saying in a sweet voice, “A-Jing, has anything happened to you in the capital during this time?”
“I’m fine over here, but you caused such a big commotion. Couldn’t you have explained things to me properly?”
Mo Yunjing pushed her out, one hand lifting her chin, his deep-set eyes staring at her meaningfully:
“With just over a thousand masters from Xintang Valley, they could completely defeat the Great Yue Kingdom overnight. Tangtang, tell me, what other surprises can you give me?”
Hearing him mention this, An Xuetang narrowed her eyes and smiled smugly, “I have plenty of surprises for you. Just wait, I can create even more surprises for you, making you proud of me.”
Mo Yun Jing chuckled, indulgently pinching her cheek, “You are now my greatest pride. Tell me, what exactly is this explosive? Why can it cause such a tremendous blast?”
An Xue lay back, raising an eyebrow. She had never considered hiding the formula for the explosives from Mo Yun Jing. This time, she explained directly what the explosives were.
And she explained to Mo Yunjing in detail how the explosive packs worked and unleashed their power.
When talking about the bomb, An Xuetang casually mentioned that someone had been maliciously collecting sulfur.
After listening, Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes, “I’ll take care of the sulfur matter. If it was really done by Bai Guanggong, they will definitely hide those sulfurs in a secluded place. As long as my people find out where those sulfurs are, it shouldn’t be difficult to seize them from them.”
Hearing him talk about stealing things so nonchalantly, An Xue Tang couldn’t help but smile. Looking at his handsome face, she reached out and pinched it:
“Ajing, being with me, how come your style suddenly has a bit of a bandit’s air? You talk about robbing so lightly, aren’t you afraid that if the common people hear it, your image in their hearts will be greatly diminished? You are their God of War!”
Mo Yunjing curled his lips into a smile. “Besides you, I’ve never cared what others think.”
I have to say, the things he’s been saying lately really resonate with An Xue Tang. Listening to him, she just wants to rush over and kiss him passionately.
But right now, they were both lying in bed. After her impulsive behavior, she knew her Jing would lose control.
So she held back for now. She looked up at the window and saw that it was almost time. She sat up.
Mo Yunjing also sat up, seeing that her hair was a little messy, he reached out and smoothed it for her.
An Xue Tang pursed her lips, “Don’t worry about the sulfur, Ajing. Besides having ready-made sulfur, I also have a way to make it. Right now, we should focus on what we’ll do next in the capital.”
Mò Yún Jǐng raised an eyebrow slightly, “Do you have a way to make sulfur?”
“Yes, I have already asked people from Xuntang Valley to prepare for this. As for the other raw materials, Zilong will figure it out. I’ve already told him what to do, so you don’t need to worry about this, Ajing.”
In the midst of their conversation, her eyes suddenly sharpened. “Right now, let’s talk about what’s happening in the capital. Zilong told me that besides the Emperor, there are many people in the capital who want to deal with you two brothers. So this trip back to the capital, we will encounter a lot of obstacles and danger, right?”
