Luo Jin’an would not have gotten injured and reawoken his cold poison, but the Hong Clan had sent their experts to hunt his subordinates down when they captured Hong Tong.

Luo Jin’an had no choice but to use his martial arts to protect his subordinates from the Hong Clan. However, his body was not as robust as before because of the cold poison.

Whenever he used his martial arts, it would trigger the poison, making it fatal to his body. However, Luo Jin’an did not have time to consider things because he had to save his subordinates and the Wei family army’s surviving members. He could not put them in danger.

His martial arts were formidable, and the Hong Clan was no match for him, even though they sent many of their most capable people.

After all, people called him the God of War. It was not just a title—he was truly mighty and had never lost. Although he had dealt with the people in pursuit, he had reawoken the cold poison and became weak.

Fortunately, the group escaped, and the Hong Clan dared not send more people into the border province. Still, Luo Jin’an’s cold poison was acting up terribly.

His subordinates were scared for him, but he had the medicine Su Binglan had made for him. Luo Jin’an’s condition temporarily stabilized after taking medicine, but the cold poison had worsened.

He could not return to Su Teng Village because he still had important things to do at the border province. His subordinates wanted to send a message to Su Binglan, but Luo Jin’an stopped them. He did not want his wife to worry.

She was safe in the village, and Luo Jin’an could not bear to let her come to the border province to put herself in danger. Moreover, knowing that Su Binglan was okay allowed him to carry out his tasks without worry.

Luo Jin’an used to be indifferent to life and death. He felt the same as Lan Ruozhu did, only wanting revenge. However, things had changed, and he had someone to care for.

He did not want to drag Su Binglan into his problems even if he had something to worry about. He thought she did not know what had happened to him in the past and could live a good life.

During his time at the border, Luo Jin’an endured the pain of the cold poison and began to arrange many things. Through interrogating Hong Tong, he understood some of the dark secrets behind the war three years ago.

Luo Jin’an also learned what roles the enemy country and some of the Chu Country ministers played in the war. After asking Hong Tong for crucial information, Luo Jin’an’s eyes reddened.

He discovered that some of the Chu Country’s ministers and the enemy country went to war to destroy the Wei family army. It was the same Chu Country the Wei family army had loyally protected.

The emperor was wary of the Wei family’s prestige and ability. Still, he did not need to do anything because others would do it for him.

Luo Jin’an fell ill, and his cold poison worsened. He would dream of many people when he slept but could not sleep peacefully when dreaming of the Wei family. He broke out in cold sweat until it drenched his clothes.

The doctors guarding him were distressed and stayed by him throughout the night. However, one of the doctors admired Su Binglan very much because of the medicines she had prepared for Luo Jin’an.

Luo Jin’an might have died from the cold poison when he used his martial arts, but the medicine temporarily stabilized his condition after he took it. Even the doctors working together could not concoct such a thing.

As the doctors stayed by Luo Jin’an’s side, they noticed he would always call out the same person’s name in his sleep, “B-Binglan.”

One of the doctors listened carefully and realized Luo Jin!an was calling for Su Binglan.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan dreamed of Luo Jin’an, and her heart clenched. When she woke up the following day, she realized cold sweat had drenched her entire body.

She thought of going to the border because she saw Luo Jin’an being there in her dream. Su Binglan suspected she could find him there and had to go, no matter what. She could not be at ease until she found him.

She started packing her things after waking up. She wanted to bring as many spare medicinal herbs and prepare as much medicine as possible. Su Binglan also prepared a lot of food and wine. Fortunately, she had her pocket dimension to put those things inside.

When Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao woke up and saw Su Binglan’s cold expression, they felt something was amiss. Shen Qiuhua asked, “Binglan, you don’t look too good. Did you not rest well?”

Su Fengmao was also worried about his daughter, asking, “What’s wrong?”

The two parents had grown accustomed to waking up early and noticed their daughter had woken up earlier than usual today. The older couple were worried when they saw their daughter’s unusual expression.

“It’s nothing, Father. I’m packing my things for two days to go to the border province.” Su Binglan wanted to leave tonight but did not know if she could prepare everything in just two days.

Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua were no strangers to the border province. Although they did not know where it was in the past, they had been selling tofu products and dealing with merchants from far and wide. Therefore, they inevitably found out where it was.

“That’s in the north. I heard it’s cold and barren there. Why do you want to go to the border?” Shen Qiuhua’s heart pounded.

Su Fengmao also knew about that place. “l heard hundreds of thousands of corpses from the Wei family army lie buried there. That place is a wasteland.”

The border province did not belong to Chu Country or Beishao Country, and bandits roamed there. It was desolate, where no crops could grow. Therefore, the older couple felt uneasy about their daughter going to such a place.

When Su Binglan did business with foreign merchants, she overheard them discussing the current border prefecture. It was Chu’s border city when the Wei family army guarded it.

With them there, Beishao, which lay in the north, could not enter nor attack Chu. Even the nomads riding on iron cavalry could not cross the border. The bandits in the wasteland also dared not challenge the Wei army.

The commoners could live normally in the border province with the Wei army’s protection. However, the border got abandoned, and bandits ran rampant after the war three years ago.

The nomads from surrounding areas would also occasionally invade. Then some commoners died, and those who survived moved away. The border had become too risky to take over, and neither Beishao nor Chu wanted to interfere.

Later, people knew the border as the Great Desolate Region, where various factions occupied it. Even Beishao and Chu could not control it. The two countries had signed an agreement, and their borders had retreated, making it safe for both countries.

Luo Jin’an had settled the surviving Wei army members there. After all, the most dangerous place was also the safest..
