When Su Ying woke up, the first thing she saw was Xiao Jin sitting by the bed, looking at her intently.

When he saw Su Ying open her eyes, Xiao Jin’s deep, dark eyes instantly brightened. “You’re awake.”

Su Ying’s eyes felt very sore and uncomfortable. She didn’t have the refreshed feeling she normally got from a good night’s sleep. “Why do I feel so sore and uncomfortable?”

“You’ve slept for one day and one night.”

Su Ying was shocked to hear that. She had slept for so long!

She rubbed between her eyebrows and sat up on the bed. She felt that her whole body was unbearably sore and uncomfortable. Just as she was about to stand up, she felt a hot flow gushing out from under her body…

Xiao Jin’s eyes darkened when he saw her suddenly stiffen in midair as she got up. He hurriedly said, “What’s wrong?”

Su Ying stiffly raised her head and said, “It’s nothing. You go out first. I want to change my clothes.”

Xiao Jin looked at her with a puzzled expression. She had always taken off her clothes as she pleased before. When had she become so particular that she would ask him to go out when she wanted to change her clothes?

“What’s wrong?”

“Why are you asking so many questions? Get out of here quickly!” Su Ying immediately pushed him out of the door and locked it.

After locking the door, Su Ying hurriedly went into her interspatial store to take out some sanitary napkins to use. She didn’t expect her period to come so suddenly. If it hadn’t come today, she would have totally forgotten about it. It seemed like this was the first time she was having her period since arriving here so long ago.

It might have been because this body she inherited was malnourished that the period had never appeared before.

Su Ying changed into a clean set of clothes after she came out of the interspatial store. She then carried the soiled clothes to the backyard to wash them.

When Xiao Jin saw her squatting by the well and washing clothes, he walked over with a puzzled look. However, when he saw the blood stains on her pants, he was dumbfounded. He immediately turned around and left as if he didn’t see anything.

Su Ying returned to the hall and sat down after washing her clothes. Her back was so sore that it made her whole body very uncomfortable.

Xiao Jin came in with a bowl of hot soup and placed it in front of her.

Su Ying took one look and asked in bafflement, “What’s this?”

Xiao Jin averted his eyes and didn’t look at her. “It’s brown sugar ginger soup. Aunt Zhao made it.”

“I don’t have a cold. I won’t drink it.” She really didn’t like the taste of the ginger.

“You’re not feeling well when you are having your period. You’ll feel better after you drink it.”

Su Ying was startled. She then realized that Xiao Jin knew. She suddenly felt awkward. “Alright. I understand.”

She picked up the bowl and drank the whole bowl in one go.

Xiao Jin watched her drink the whole bowl before saying, “Rest well today. Don’t go anywhere.”

Su Ying actually wanted to take a look at the slope, but she did feel somewhat lazy and couldn’t find the energy to do anything. She decided to take a day off. “Mm-hmm.”

After Xiao Jin saw that she had returned to her room obediently, he went to the courtyard to check on Number One and the others.

He had seen their abilities in the melee the day before. He had to admit that Su Ying was really good at training people. Their combat strength had increased by more than a level.

“Master, Lin Kun and the rest have sent news,” Jiang Yang walked to Xiao Jin’s side and whispered.

Ever since they had entered the northern wilderness and found their place of residence, Lin Kun and the rest had left. There had been no news from them for a long time.

Xiao Jin took the envelope from Jiang Yang’s hand and opened it. He read through it quickly.

After reading, his fingers clenched slightly.

“How is it?” Jiang Yang asked hurriedly.

Xiao Jin handed him the letter. After reading it, Jiang Yang cursed in anger, “They still succeeded. d.a.m.n it!”

Although General Sima and the others had received Xiao Jin’s news very quickly, they were still a step too late. The Emperor was furious after reading the appeal and straightaway condemned the pet.i.tioners. Fortunately, General Sima’s life was still saved in the end.

However, many of the generals who had followed Xiao Jin before were imprisoned and sentenced to exile. They were not brought to the capital for interrogation, but were sentenced directly in Jin City. They should be on the way to exile now.

Nonetheless, the people were still alive and General Sima was still in Jin City. This was not the worst outcome.

“Ask Lin Kun to send people to follow them secretly. Do your best to ensure that everyone can reach the northern wilderness safely.”

“I understand.”

Su Ying went back to her room, lay back on her bed, and fell asleep again. When she woke up, it was already past noon.

She got up and ate something. She felt that the soreness in her body had lessened a lot, so she planned to go to the Tiger Base to take a look.

“Mistress, where are you going?” Lin Zhuyu asked when she saw Su Ying preparing to go out.

“I’m going to the Tiger Base to take a look. I’ll be back at night,” Su Ying said.

“Then, you must be careful, Mistress.”

“I know.”

When she was having her period, Su Ying didn’t want to ride a horse, so she had w.a.n.g Su bring the horse carriage out and she then drove the horse carriage to the Tiger Base.

The Tiger Base had suffered great losses from the previous battle, and there were many causalities in the base camp.

When Su Ying arrived, she realized that even the guard at the entrance had been replaced. After inquiring, she found out that the previous guard had perished.

“Madam Su, you are here.” Qiao Yang ran over to Su Ying eagerly as soon as he saw her.

“How’s your big brother?” Su Ying asked.

“He’s much better. He’s recovering well.”

Su Ying nodded and went upstairs to Tiger Might’s room.

Tiger Might had sat up in bed when he heard movement earlier.

“Madam Su, you are here.”

Su Ying nodded. “Are there any more problems?”

“I won’t die,” said Tiger Might with a smile.

“Mm-hmm. I came here today to tell you a few things.”

“Madam Su, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

“I want to rebuild the gate of the Tiger Base. You have seen the gate of the Azure Dragon Base. Compared to their gate, our gate is downright vulnerable. When the gate is strong, it can resist enemies to a large extent. So, this gate must be rebuilt.”

Tiger Might nodded in agreement. “Okay. How do you want to build it? Just tell me, Madam Su. I’ll get someone to do it.”

“Stone walls and wooden gates.”

“Alright.”

“Also, do you know how many people are in the Tiger Base, or rather, how many families there are?” Previously, she had walked around the Tiger Base a few times and felt that it was like a small town. Although the houses were haphazard and disorganized, the population was not small.

“Tiger Base is divided into four districts, namely East, West, South, and North. Each district is managed by an Area Chief,” said Tiger Might with a frown. As he spoke, he asked Qiao Yang to bring over a map. This was the map of the Tiger Base that he had asked someone to draw up earlier.

From the map, the Tiger Base’s sphere of influence was very clear and squarish. Each district was clearly divided. The empty s.p.a.ce Su Ying and her group occupied as well as the Tiger Base were in the East District. They rarely got involved with the other three districts.

“These four areas were divided by you?”

Tiger Might shook his head. “Not entirely. In fact, there were no divisions before. The people in the base camp chose their own Area Chief to manage the area for the convenience of management. I am the Area Chief of the East District. The West District was managed by the Venom Cult before, but there is no Area Chief in that area after the Venom Cult was destroyed. On the surface, the Area Chiefs of the South and North Districts are under my command, but they are not under my control.”

Su Ying glanced at him icily.. “They are not under your control but you still consider them under your command?”
