However…
All he saw was An Jiuyue watching the two people exchanging blows in midair.
Zhan Beiye was speechless.
How could she calmly watch her husband fight someone stronger than him? Even if she was pregnant, she shouldn’t act like this, right?
“Um, are you alright, Sister-in-Law?” he approached An Jiuyue and asked, seriously suspecting that Marquess Ning had injured and beaten her senseless.
“Why wouldn’t I be?”
Upon hearing Zhan Beiye’s voice, An Jiuyue turned around and looked at him.
“Why are you here? Marquess Ning is here. Shouldn’t you send someone to raid his backyard?”
“Uhm…” Zhan Beiye was stunned.
Raiding Marquess Nings backyard would be useless. Otherwise, he would have sent someone to do it long ago.
Marquess Ning had only brought Zhan Beixiao and a few useless servants into the city. What was the point of killing such people? It was not like he enjoyed killing either.
“Zhan Beixiao is in Marquess Ning’s backyard,” he murmured.
“Oh. raiding would be Dointless then.”

“Zhan Beixiao is in Marquess Ning’s backyard,” he murmured.
“Oh, raiding would be pointless then.”
An Jiuyue understood; seizing Zhan Beixiao would actually save Marquess Ning and the Zhanling Emperor a lot of trouble.
Hence, they must not touch Zhan Beixiao. He had to return to Zhanling
Empire’s capital safely and stir the waters that were on the verge of settling.
“Aren’t you going to help?” Zhan Beiye asked her. Was it a good idea to sit so calmly?
“I’ll only cause trouble for Jiyun if I step in, so I won’t.” An Jiuyue shook her head.
If she joined them, Qian Jiyun would have to protect her, and Marquess Ning would really defeat them.
“Then I’ll go—”
“Don’t cause trouble,” An Jiuyue interrupted Zhan Beiye.
“It’s not easy to find a decent sparring partner. Marquess Ning is still useful. I’ll keep an eye on them. Don’t worry, he’ll be fine,” she a.s.sured Zhan Beiye again.
He wanted to ask what was the point of keeping an eye on them.
Would she still be able to help if Qian Jiyun was at a disadvantage? She would not be able to defeat Marquess Ning then!
No. Qian Jiyun was probably at a disadvantage already, right? He had always Imown Marquess Ning’s cultivation level. Few people in Zhanling Empire could compare to him.
If it weren’t for a few elders in the royal family who could keep Marquess Ning in check, he might have been the ruler of Zhanling Empire.
He had once overheard two elders talking about how they would take Marquess Ning with them when their time came so that this ambitious person wouldn’t interfere with the Zhan family’s reign.
Even the elders of the royal family were afraid of Marquess Ning, let alone them.
Meanwhile, Qian Jiyun was indeed feeling a little powerless. Zhan Beiye definitely did not exaggerate Marquess Ning’s reputation—he was really capable.
“Jiuyue!”
Gripping his sword with both hands, he blocked Marquess Nings attack. He called out to An Jiuyue through gritted teeth.
“Understood. Coming!” An Jiuyue replied immediately.
Zhan Beiye’s eyes lit up. He thought he would soon witness An Jiuyue in action and, truthfully, he was quite curious about her cultivation level. However, he did not expect An Jiuyue to remain seated after responding to
Qian Jiyun.
‘You…”
