The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 158 Unlucky Boomerang

"Okay, thank you in advance."

After accepting Xiaoyuehan's technique, Chu Qianqiu patted his daughter's head.

Then, Qiao Xiaoxiao, who was behind, also rushed forward and hugged his thigh, expressing some words from her heart.

"Benefactor, where are you going again?"

"Take me with you, okay!"

Qiao Xiaoxiao said, looking very aggrieved.

Chu Qianqiu was stunned on the spot, thinking to himself, what does this guy want again? Does she want to go to the battlefield and kill enemies with him?

"Don't make a fuss, how could I take you with me?"

"Do you know where I'm going?"

"I don't care, I just want to go!"

"You must take me with you this time!"

Ignoring the benefactor's disdain, Qiao Xiaoxiao held on tightly and made up her mind.

Chu Qianqiu had never seen such an intense reaction from this little girl before, and he didn't know what was going on with her. He asked curiously.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Benefactor, during the time you were away, my old illness relapsed!"

She said this loudly, finally revealing the current situation.

It turned out that during the time Chu Qianqiu was not at home, her physical condition started to reverse again, and the unfortunate misfortune once again befell those around her.

Now, anyone who stayed close to her for too long would inevitably have bad luck, and this situation was getting worse.

Gradually, everyone around Qiao Xiaoxiao left, no one dared to stay with her for long, as if they had seen a disaster.

She hated this feeling, a fear that had been with her since childhood, making her feel very inferior.

"So that's what happened... There have been many things recently, and I really forgot about this."

"You're having bad luck again?"

Chu Qianqiu was a bit helpless, having forgotten about this for a while.

This matter seemed small on the surface, but it could actually cause fatalities.

Qiao Xiaoxiao's condition was not a joke. If he didn't stay by her side, it would eventually kill everyone in the Chu family.

What should he do?

In order to prevent harm to the people of the Chu family, the best solution was indeed to take her to the battlefield to fight the enemy together.

But then again, wouldn't taking her to the battlefield be killing her?

She was such a weak woman, currently only at the Qi Refining stage. Going up there would be sending her to her death.

Taking her to the battlefield was no different from taking her to be reborn.

"Um... this."

Lost in thought, Chu Qianqiu couldn't make up his mind.

Qiao Xiaoxiao tightly hugged his thigh, indicating that it was decided.

"Let's go, you can only take me with you!"

"Um... about that."

"Okay."

Helpless, Chu Qianqiu really couldn't think of any other good ideas, so he could only agree.

Upon hearing that she could finally stay by the benefactor's side, Qiao Xiaoxiao finally smiled, obviously not realizing the seriousness of the situation.

If she knew that Chu Qianqiu was going to take her to a battlefield filled with countless corpses, she wouldn't be able to smile.

...

After resolving Qiao Xiaoxiao's matter, Chu Qianqiu and the others left amidst the confused and puzzled gazes of the Chu family.

Everyone was curious why the family head didn't let this Qiao Xiaoxiao stay by his side.

Is the head of the family going to a dangerous place?

Nowadays, what place can be considered truly dangerous?

"Have you heard? These days, the beggars in our city, Moon Phoenix City, have all mysteriously disappeared. No one knows what happened."

"Of course I know. And many of the common people in the city who couldn't pay their taxes have also been taken away by imperial soldiers, saying they were taken as soldiers, but no one knows what they're doing."

"The higher-ups of the empire have been capturing people of this kind in major cities these days. I really don't understand what's going on."

"It's really unfortunate. Fortunately, our family head won't let us suffer such injustice, otherwise we would be in big trouble."

"Is it possible that there's going to be a war now, and the higher-ups of the empire are preparing to find cannon fodder to charge into battle?"

"No way, could it be that the place our family head is going to now is the battlefield?"

...

After Chu Qianqiu left for a while, the young masters and young ladies started discussing recent events and discovered some clues.

Meanwhile, Chu Qianqiu and his group were traveling through the sky, heading towards the city of Melting Forge.

Along the way, they often saw soldiers and guards of the empire escorting a group of ordinary people to a certain city.

After inquiring a bit, it turned out that these guys were heading to the most prosperous imperial city in the empire, which was a long journey.

And most of these detained people had debts, and some were even beggars.

Chu Qianqiu didn't want to say much about this situation. He recognized the situation at a glance and temporarily chose not to intervene.

"It seems that the war is really about to begin."

"The Rising Sun Empire seems to be short of people. Why are they even arresting beggars on the street? They're already pitiful enough."

Back in the air, Chu Qianqiu and his father were talking, both feeling speechless.

Qiao Xiaoxiao stayed on Chu Qianqiu's back, listening to their conversation with confusion, as if she had thought of something, she shouted.

"Wait, benefactor, where are we going?"

"To the battlefield."

"Do you think I'm going out to play?"

With a sly smile, Chu Qianqiu stopped pretending. He indicated that this guy should follow along, and now she could only suffer.

Qiao Xiaoxiao immediately put on a sad face. She didn't expect that one day she would go to such a dangerous place. She couldn't understand why the benefactor would do this.

"Benefactor, do you hate me? Do you want me to die? Sob..."

"Uh... You followed on your own, didn't you?"

"Then why do we have to go to such a dangerous place?"

"Because I'm bored. I'm really bored, so I want to go and have some fun."

"Ah? Ugh...!"

Listening to the benefactor's seemingly joking words, Qiao Xiaoxiao's palms turned cold, and she almost fainted.

Now she truly regretted it.

The battlefield was not a fun place. Now she was just a Qi Refining stage rookie, and going there was no different from being cannon fodder.

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

"Maybe you don't have to fight with me on the front lines."

After comforting her a little, Chu Qianqiu didn't feel like joking anymore. He was afraid that if he continued joking, he would really scare her to death.

...

Soon, they arrived at the city of Melting Forge and entered it.

This time, Chu Qianqiu didn't show off too much. He deliberately dressed up, hoping that others wouldn't recognize him, which would make things easier.

Although Tang Zhao didn't make it clear to him where they would meet if he wanted to participate in the war.

But he had a feeling that this was the final meeting place, for no reason at all.

"He should have been keeping an eye on me all along. He should have known about me leaving home as soon as possible."

"So now, it's me who is choosing the meeting place, and he is the one coming to see me."
