My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!

Huai State.

The 800,000-strong army of Daxia is stationed in Huai State and nearby regions, fending off the Wei Country's invasion.

Outside Huai State City, 300,000 elite troops of Wei Country began gathering again.

Siege warfare is always harder than defending a city. The army of Xia Country is entrenched, holding the city with overwhelming military strength. To breach this city, at least five times the garrison's strength is needed. Wei Country's forces exceed Xia Country's in both number and top-tier warriors, though progress is slow, it is steadily advancing...

No one expected that while the main army waged war at the front, the rear territories were raided.

After losing more than a dozen states, the Wei Country Court could no longer sit idle and had to pull back some forces from the front to defend the rear. This stabilized their back but significantly slowed down their siege progress. Huai State alone had been under siege for half a month with no success.

Inside Huai State City.

Sensing that the military force of the Wei Army outside the city was gathering again, two Semi-Saints of the Wang family issued orders to confront the threat, slowly rising into the sky.

Compared to half a month ago, their pressure now was much less.

Previously, in every battle, the two had to hold back three Semi-Saints from Wei Country.

Fortunately, the two brothers had been cultivating together since childhood. Over a century, they developed an intricate Combined Attack Technique. Even against three, they could hold their own.

Half a month ago, one of the enemy Semi-Saints was redeployed, significantly easing their burden.

In these past weeks, the enemy outside the city routinely amassed forces, which they had grown accustomed to. As long as they held off those two Semi-Saints from interfering, the garrison inside the city could defend competently.

Their encounters with the two Semi-Saints from Wei Country had formed a certain tacit understanding.

Each daily battle seemed more like a friendly spar to them.

Which Semi-Saint hasn't cultivated for over a century? Unless absolutely necessary, no one wishes to engage in life-and-death struggles among equals.

However, today, as the two flew out of the city planning their usual spar with the Semi-Saints from Wei Country, their expressions slightly changed.

A figure had appeared in front of the two Semi-Saints of Wei Country.

The two stood half a step behind him with faces showing respect.

Once they clearly saw that figure's face, the two Semi-Saints of the Wang family were utterly shocked and exclaimed in unison, "Emperor Wei!"

...

Jiang State.

The stalemate between the Revolutionary Army and the Wei Country's grand army continued. In terms of sheer force, Wei Country was stronger, but the Revolutionary Army was not to be underestimated. A forced assault would cost at least half of their 400,000 troops.

Both sides were waiting.

Waiting for the frontline armies to determine a victor and then free their hands to break the balance here.

Inside the State Government, Li Nuo withdrew his fingers from Huang Yuan's wrist and shook his head, saying, "Your body has no problems."

Huang Yuan, unconvinced, asked, "Are you sure?"

Li Nuo nodded and said, "At least with my skills, I haven't detected any illness."

Huang Yuan asked further, "What about poison?"

Li Nuo replied, "None."

Huang Yuan had great faith in Li Nuo's medical skills; on the continent, no one surpassed his expertise. Yet Huang Yuan remained uneasy...

That person dared to use this to threaten him, so what he was forced to swallow could not be something trivial.

At this time, Li Nuo asked, "What exactly did you ingest?"

Huang Yuan thought for a moment, then described, "A kind of black pill."

Li Nuo asked, "What did it taste like?"

Huang Yuan said, "Sour and sweet, quite palatable..."

The Medical School's pills are generally bitter, rarely having a sour and sweet taste. If it were poison, it would certainly not be sweet. Only hawthorn pills fitted this description.

Hawthorn pills had long been available at the court's Medical Hall, primarily treating indigestion caused by food stagnation, bloating, and poor appetite. They were extremely affordable and loved by the public for being suitable for both young and old.

Huang Yuan, puzzled, asked, "What kind of poison is a hawthorn pill?"

Li Nuo shook his head, saying, "It's not poison."

Huang Yuan was slightly taken aback and asked, "What does it do then?"

Li Nuo answered, "Strengthens the spleen, promotes digestion..."

Huang Yuan: "..."

As Huang Yuan stood bewildered, Bai Yu hurried in with a grave expression and said to Li Nuo, "Lord Li, there's news from the frontline. Four Semi-Saints from the Wang family, Cui family, and Pei family have fallen..."

Li Nuo looked at the urgent report handed over but showed little surprise on his face.

When the portraits of the two Semi-Saints from Wei Country appeared in the Law Code, and his Martial Path Cultivation surged to the Fourth Realm along with gaining an extra 60 years of lifespan, he knew Wei Country would retaliate specifically.

He just didn't foresee that of the six great families which had only seven Semi-Saints in total, four would fall within two days.

The Wang family, Daxia's first family with two Semi-Saints, lost both of its Semi-Saints entirely.

The fall of one Semi-Saint might have been an accident, but the simultaneous fall of four was highly unusual. With the strength stationed by Wei Country at the southwestern border, dealing with Daxia's seven Semi-Saints, killing four and severely wounding three, was impossible.

Unless...

Huang Yuan looked at Li Nuo and said with great conviction, "It must have been His Majesty who intervened!"

Among usual Semi-Saints, the strength gap isn't huge. Master Taixu is a Half-Saint Peak; under normal circumstances, he might not even be able to kill a newly advanced Semi-Saint, unless with the determination to perish together.

The fact that the four Semi-Saints couldn't even escape indicated an overwhelming power's intervention.

Besides the Emperor of Wei, there's no other possibility.

Unexpectedly, as an emperor of the Five Great Dynasties, he dared to leave the capital, penetrate the front line, and take action personally...

If anything were to happen to him, Wei Country would soon be removed from the Five Great Dynasties.
