Yuan Cheng, however, gave Tan You a curious look. 'This woman,' he thought, 'is becoming more and more of a mystery.'
Yue Shu readily agreed. "Madam, being on the defensive all the time is too conservative. We need to go on the attack—take the initiative. Only when we make them feel the pain will they not dare to invade again."
Tan You knew their mission was dangerous. "Alright. Take plenty of life-saving supplies."
Yue Shu understood. "Don't worry, Madam. We'll be traveling light and are certain to complete the mission."
Tan You was filled with worry. "The mission isn't as important as your lives. You are what matters most. Don't forget you all have loved ones at home, so take good care of yourselves."
Yue Shu lowered his hands respectfully. "Please, don't worry, Madam."
