"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—"
They had no time to react, falling directly to the ground.
The cabin was a scene of carnage, with countless bodies piled up, like a living hell.
The remaining people rushed to see what was happening, but Xu Qian shot them all down.
Only when there was no one left on the live map did she put down her gun.
Xu Qian was the only one left on the massive warship, the scent of blood so strong it almost overflowed the cabin.
She chuckled lightly, her voice echoing in the cabin.
Eerily chilling.
"Those who hurt me must bear the consequences."
Xu Qian closed her eyes slightly, and with a thought, she stored the corpses and the warship into her space.
Immediately after, she appeared on the shore and stored all the remaining warships into her space.
Xu Qian looked back at the burning city, her expression indifferent.
Now, let's see how you plan to leave.
Xu Qian strode into the combat zone, observing both sides exchanging fire from rooftops and windows, occasionally tossing a bomb.
The city was already a difficult place to fight in, and for a moment, they were at a stalemate, neither side able to gain the upper hand.
"Jingle, jingle, jingle."
The bell rang, and for that instant, even the air seemed to freeze.
Xu Qian circled around to assess the situation before stopping the ringing.
In that moment, gunshots and explosions erupted.
Qiang Xiucheng paced back and forth in the command center, muttering to himself.
"I don't know what's happening with Xiao Qian on her end."
"All done."
Qiang Xiucheng flinched, startled by her sudden appearance. He patted his chest and said, "Xiao Qian, you scared me to death. How did you get here?"
Not a sound, as if she were a ghost.
Xu Qian's expression remained unchanged, and she said calmly, "What's the situation with the battle now?"
"We've lost over two hundred people. Their equipment is better than ours, so their casualties might not be that high."
"Are all the warships dealt with?"
Xu Qian nodded casually, and with a thought, a pile of armaments appeared on the ground.
"Send them out to fight, no need to hold back."
Qiang Xiucheng's attention was no longer on that. His eyes twitched, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Are the warships really all finished?"
Xu Qian gave him a faint glance and said, "Yes, you all should finish this quickly and stop dragging it out."
He stared blankly for a moment, then beckoned an assistant to give orders, "Hurry, send all this stuff out."
"Yes."
Qiang Xiucheng carefully pulled her aside and asked, "Where's Xiao Lü?"
At the mention of this, Xu Qian's eyes darkened, and she said coldly, "He's fine."
Qiang Xiucheng breathed a sigh of relief. These two were usually inseparable, and he was truly afraid something might have happened to Xu Lü.
They were both talented individuals!
With Xu Qian's assistance in various aspects, the war ended quickly.
Everyone cheered, and the system notification sounded simultaneously.
[Ding, congratulations to the host, the sub-mission is complete, your points have been fully deducted, and speed-type items have been distributed to your inventory.]
Xu Qian opened her inventory and saw a pair of small white wings in a small grid.
[Ding, Wings of Flight, provides sustained flight for thirty minutes, usable once per day.]
The girl's eyes lit up. The flight time wasn't long, but being able to fly was incredibly convenient.
Xiang Jintian's wings were so good, and she had gotten a little used to not having them after they separated.
Qiang Xiucheng's eyes reddened, and he grasped her hand tightly.
"Xiao Qian, thank you."
Xu Qian smiled slightly and forcefully pulled her hand away.
"You're welcome. From now on, you must guard this hard-won peace well."
Qiang Xiucheng hesitated a bit, but then he spoke, "This might sound abrupt, but I'd like to invite you to stay."
"Don't rush to refuse. You are very capable and decisive, and everyone respects you. I think you could try to take over the management affairs of our Province N."
"Become the ruler of our Province N."
"Of course, you won't take over immediately; there will be an assessment period."
"What do you think?"
Qiang Xiucheng looked at her cautiously, afraid she wouldn't agree.
Xu Qian's pupils contracted. She never imagined that Qiang Xiucheng would invite her to be the ruler.
