Chapter 1831: Chapter 1769: Reckless Beyond Measure

As Ah Jiu’s group fully arrived and took control, the noisy valley gradually quieted down, with all the miners, overseers in the valley, and guarding soldiers held under watch.

Liang Bang quickly walked up to Wufu. Seeing Wufu being helped up by Ah Jiu, he showed concern and asked, "How is the Princess Consort?"

"Thanks to fortune, just a bit of interior injury." Wufu said with a smile.

Liang Bang breathed a sigh of relief, knelt down on one knee, and clasped his hands in gratitude, "Thank you, Princess Consort, for the lifesaving grace."

Ah Jiu listened, then glanced at Wufu.

"It was incidental," Wufu chuckled awkwardly, "Stand up, it’s not a big deal, just remember, never get distracted on the battlefield; life and death are decided within a second."

Liang Bang smiled a bit sheepishly and nodded.

Hoo Die flew back, and Ah Jiu looked over and asked gravely, "Where’s the person?"

"It was dark, and the other side is more familiar with the terrain here, let him escape," Hoo Die said.

Ah Jiu’s face turned cold.

"Never mind," Wufu said, holding his hand, "Anyway, we’ve already got control here, Marquis Xuanwu won’t be able to escape."

Saying this, she handed the ledger taken from the black-clad man’s hand to Ah Jiu, "No idea what’s inside, he wanted to burn it, it must be important."

"I have this too," Mo Lan handed over what she had found to them.

Ah Jiu had Yuan Ye hold onto them, and said to Wufu, "I’ll take a look at this area, you’ve suffered an interior injury, rest for a while."

Wufu was unwilling, she came here to witness the ancient weapon factory, so she said, "A bit of interior injury doesn’t matter, I also want to see."

Seeing her earnest look, Ah Jiu had no choice but to say, "Then be careful, if you feel any discomfort, tell me immediately."

Wufu quickly nodded.

The group first headed to the valley that had been blown up. According to the reports from those who returned, it was a hollowed-out cave used for forging weapons.

In a moment, Wufu and the others stood at the entrance, where smoke still drifted out, with a thick smell, some soldiers had cloth bandanas on their noses as they cleaned up.

"Your Highness, this place has been blown up, risk of collapse, better not go inside?" Yuan Ye advised, "I’ll have my men inventory the items inside."

"No problem," Ah Jiu wasn’t concerned, but asked Wufu to wait at the entrance.

Wufu said, "We go in together or we wait together, you and I are united!" Saying this, she took a cloth scarf and wrapped it around her nose, and walked inside.

Ah Jiu quickly followed.

The cave had been greatly expanded, everywhere there were iron slags, coal ash, and large kettles, furnaces, and various weapon forging items piled chaotically.

"Is this iron ore?" Wufu pointed at piles of ore, picked up a piece casually, and inspected carefully. Inside, there were many impurities, but the iron color was faintly visible, bringing it to her nose, a metallic pungency invaded her senses.

"Miners extracted these ores," a guard explained, pointing deeper inside, "From there in, there are those yet to be mined."

"Your Highness, look." Commander Du stood at the entrance of a rubble-filled cave and summoned them.

Ah Jiu and Wufu walked over, stepped over the debris, and entered the cave, viewing it entirely by torchlight.

As far as the eye could see, all were brand new weapons, with long spears, feathered arrows, tied in bundles, and plenty of battlefield weapons.

"Marquis Xuanwu, audacious!" Ah Jiu cursed angrily.
