Chapter 617: Chapter 616: Killing Xia Yan, Siblings reunited_1
 

Deep into the night, the Beiming camp suddenly caught fire, one tent after another.

The wind fueled the fire, and from miles away, the blaze could be seen at the watchtowers.

The King of Beiming, Xia Yan, died abruptly, engulfed by the sea of flames.

Xia Jian and Xia Lei led their troops to retreat, heading in different directions.

Yu Yang, a powerful general of Beiqi, took the opportunity to attack Beiming. With a force unstoppable, he captured two cities within three days,

Xia Lei could not respond in time and had to abandon some of the territory, retreating to two other cities and forming a stalemate.

Xia Jian returned to the capital of Beiming and hastily ascended to the throne, proclaiming to the world.

Xia Lei refused to accept this, broke ties with him, established his own rule on the other side of the river, and claimed himself as a king.

From then on, Beiming was divided into two parts, its power gradually weakening due to constant internal strife.

**

Setting aside the internal strife in Beiming, they had a significant victory at Phoenix Pass, repelling a 400,000-strong Beiming army.

All the soldiers of the Lin Clan who participated in the battle saw a giant eagle, with a wingspan of nearly ten meters, soaring above the battlefield.

Keen-eyed observers noticed a figure on the back of the eagle. Although the view wasn’t very clear, they could vaguely make out a slender and young teenager.

The giant eagle disappeared after that day, but the miraculous scene was never forgotten. It was passed down from mouth to mouth, gradually spread throughout Phoenix Pass.

After successfully killing Xia Yan, Lin Qingluo instructed the giant eagle to return to Mystic Canyon to report everything was safe, and returned overnight to Phoenix Pass with Little Kingfisher. They snuck into the camp and slept on the warm kang in Third Brother Lin Jinlong’s tent, having a good night’s sleep.

Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Lin Jinxu returned from Black Tiger Ridge. Seeing his younger sister safe and sound relieved his worried heart.

“Second Brother, Third Brother, Qingluo missed you a lot.”

Lin Qingluo, looking at her two reunited brothers, was so moved that her eyes turned red.

Lin Jinxu opened his arms and gently hugged his younger sister, the affection written all over his face.

Lin Jinzhou did not want to be outdone, and gave a bear hug. He spun his younger sister around in the tent, his hearty laughter could be heard within a hundred meters.

“Qingluo, you really opened our eyes again.”

Lin Jinxu looked at his little sister with a doting gaze and a deep sense of admiration: “Last time, you rode the Great White Shark, this time, you rode a giant eagle. Next time, will you be riding a real dragon into the sky?”

“I wish.”

Lin Qingluo giggled mischievously: “But, there are no dragons!”

“Haha.”

The brothers were amused by their sister’s quirky and playful demeanor and laughed out loud.

“Qingluo, how long will you stay this time?”

Lin Jinzhou looked hopeful: “If you could stay a little longer, we could show you around inside the Pass and get a feel for the local culture in Beidi.”

“Sure, I’d love that.”

Lin Qingluo looked delighted, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Lin Jinzhou was overjoyed: “Since Qingluo is interested, we’ll notify Fourth Grandfather. We’ll leave tomorrow.”

“Alright.”

Lin Jinxu agreed readily: “Qingluo, you should go too. Fourth Grandfather would be delighted to see you.”

“Okay.”

Lin Qingluo looked nostalgic: “I also miss Second Uncle and the others. It would be great if we could meet them all this time.”

“Second Uncle has been stationed at the Beiqi border and couldn’t be called back this time.”

Lin Jinxu looked a bit disappointed: “Currently in Phoenix Pass, besides Fourth Grandfather, there’s only Ninth Uncle.”

“How’s Ninth Uncle doing?”

Lin Qingluo brightened up: “It’s been several months since we last saw each other.”

“He’s doing well.”

Lin Jinzhou chuckled: “Except for getting drunk and acting foolish, everything else is fine.”
