3405 Stance

She didn't have time to waste on these irrelevant people right now.

She was consumed with worry!

The fury in her heart was threatening to completely engulf this place.

She increasingly felt that Little Lin'er's aura was weakening.

It wasn't her imagination!

Little Lin'er was definitely in trouble.

Meanwhile, Jing Minyao, seeing that the situation was dire, immediately pulled Qiao Lin from the bed, half-dragging, half-carrying her out of the tent and running towards the sand dune behind the camp.

Wang Limeng and Jing Qiyao followed suit.

Jing Linyao stamped her foot in exasperation, then led a hundred personal guards into the fray. Seeing the corpses of the Arrogant Camp soldiers lying everywhere, her heart ached deeply.

This was all caused by that brainless woman, Jing Minyao!

How many innocent soldiers had died because of her momentary willfulness?

Why could she be so reckless and selfish, making innocent people pay such a heavy price for her whims?

The more Jing Linyao thought about it, the angrier she became. She led her hundred personal guards out of the tent, fiercely clashing with the swarming Fire Fiend Venomous Mosquitoes.

Watching her personal guards die one by one in the suicidal explosions of the Explosive Birds, Jing Linyao screamed furiously, "Qiao Mu! Qiao Mu! Come out here!"

After a string of furious curses, she turned around, her face and body covered in blood and grime, her angry eyes locking onto the little poker-faced girl's emotionless, cold face.

She stood far away on the other side of the sand, her small face cold, staring intently at her.

Her expression was like a cold jade sculpture, devoid of any human emotion.

No, it wasn't that; it was more accurate to say she had no emotion whatsoever towards these unfamiliar, irrelevant people.

"When the Stances Differ..."

She stood there like a jade statue, her gaze fixed on others as if she were looking at corpses.

Perhaps at this moment, all she saw before her was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Everyone except those by her side was an enemy...

"Stop! Stop it! What have they done wrong? They were just following orders! The one who truly captured your sister is Jing Minyao; she's already run towards the sand dune behind the camp! Even if you kill all these people, it's useless." Over half of the ten thousand strong Arrogant Camp forces were dead or wounded. Jing Linyao looked at the tragic scene before her and closed her eyes in pain.

"In a war between two armies, what right or wrong can there be?" Qiao Mu looked at Jing Linyao with a chilling expression, speaking coldly to her across the sandy expanse. "And to think you call yourself Princess Jing, the undefeated and unconquerable."

"When you were twelve, leading your clan to repel a three-hundred-thousand-strong demon army, did you not kill then?"

"When the stances differ, why talk to me about right and wrong?"

"Because now it's your people who are dying, the heroes your Pangu Clan painstakingly cultivated, so you feel the pain, don't you?"

Qiao Mu's icy voice, word by word, landed in Jing Linyao's heart, making her tremble uncontrollably.

It seemed... that was indeed the logic.

But to have it spoken so mercilessly was truly... irritating.

Jing Linyao gave a bitter smile, summoned a longsword from her Knowledge Abyss, and said coldly, "Jing Linyao requests battle with the Crown Princess of Divine Province!"

Qiao Mu's eyes narrowed. With a swipe of her left hand in the air, a Shocking Thunder Sword shimmering with crimson-purple light appeared in her grasp.

Her delicate white hand brushed over the sword's tip, then flicked it gently.

With a buzzing roar, it instantly felt as if everyone's ears were shattered.

Even the swarm of Fire Fiend Venomous Mosquitoes flying in the air couldn't help but scatter and retreat.
