Episode 23 recap: Di Lin marched towards the Wavyun Fortress.

Lei Hong believed that although Zi Chuan Xiu was skilled in warfare, there were still certain weaknesses in the army he led. If these weaknesses were exploited, victory could be achieved with a single strike. He further stated that Zi Chuan's troops were comparatively weak and lacked strength. Upon hearing the news, Lu Di hurriedly followed the prince and arrived. He believed he could subdue Si Yilin.

Sai Rong Shen Huang was furious that Lu Di, who had led troops for many years, failed to see through such a basic strategy. Lu Di, seeing Sai Rong Shen Huang's anger, was too scared to speak. Ka Lan also quickly apologized, claiming that it was his concern that led to the confusion.

Sai Rong Shen Huang knew that although the soldiers he led were brave and skilled, their lack of strategy was a significant weakness. When Zi Chuan Shen Xing heard from his subordinates that the enemy emperor had arrived to lead the troops into battle, Ka Dun and Ka Lan also arrived. They were willing to fight with a million soldiers; Si Yilin was acting impulsively this time, and the consequences might not be good.

Li Qing believed that Si Yilin must have had his reasons for doing so. Zi Chuan Shen Xing actually knew that Si Yilin's actions were meant to lure the tiger out of the mountains and disperse the forces of the Northern Tribe, in order to have a chance of winning. Zi Chuan Shen Xing asked Zi Chuan Ning for his opinion, and Zi Chuan Ning believed that Si Yilin's disappearance was a minor issue. The clan should not panic and should actively gather information while also raising funds for the military in case of future needs.

Zi Chuan Shen Xing felt that Zi Chuan Ning had grown up and had his own opinions. He was pleased. At this moment, someone reported that Ma Wei had arrived. Zi Chuan Shen Xing's expression changed. Ma Wei represented the Three Provinces Council and came to present a gift to the country, reminding Zi Chuan Shen Xing to pay attention to the movements of various tribes.

Ma Wei seemed to have an admiration for Zi Chuan Ning and comforted him, saying that Zi Chuan Xiu would surely succeed. Ma Wei told Zi Chuan Ning that he was worried about Zi Chuan Xiu's strong sense of duty and loyalty, so Zi Chuan Ning asked Ma Wei to investigate news about Zi Chuan Xiu.

Zi Chuan Xiu believed that he must secure the Wavyun Fortress. He didn't want his brothers to follow him to their deaths, but they insisted on accompanying him. Zi Chuan Xiu felt deeply moved and warm in his heart. Si Yilin quietly led a large army to climb the cliffs and launch a surprise attack on the Northern Tribe's camp.

Ou Le was still drinking and didn't expect that Si Yilin had already breached the city. Yun Qian Xue wanted to cut off the water source and take control of the Pacity. Si Yilin ordered his subordinates to prepare for the water source and engage in full-scale combat.

Sai Rong Shen Huang wanted to personally lead the troops to confront the enemy and was confident of winning this war. Si Yilin is currently facing a water shortage dilemma. Zi Chuan Xiu discovered that the enemy had blocked the water source, catching them off guard. Yun Qian Xue realized something was wrong and engaged in a fight, but had his arm severed. Si Yilin looked at the flag on the opposite side and knew it was Zi Chuan Xiu. He thought Zi Chuan Xiu was still the same idiot.

The two brothers were happy to see each other. Yun Qian Xue returned but lost an arm. He knew the person who harmed him must be someone else, and he was determined to find and kill that person. Lu Di was angry when he saw Yun Qian Xue's severed arm, while Ka Dun felt that Zi Chuan wasn't worth mentioning. Ka Dun and Lu Di came out and were celebrating Yun Qian Xue's arm being severed, finding it amusing.

Si Yilin looked at Zi Chuan Xiu and criticized Yun Qian Xue for being petty. He couldn't help but mention that Zi Chuan Xiu not only stole their food but also severed an arm. Zi Chuan Xiu looked at those soldiers and felt that they still hadn't learned mastery.

Zi Chuan Xiu shared the letter he had written with his brothers, telling them to hold this position. Si Yilin knew they had to rely on themselves for this battle, and he would definitely protect them. He was grateful to Zi Chuan Xiu for coming to help him. Vice Commander Lin knew this battle would be difficult. Everyone felt that Di Lin hadn't arrived yet, so they should go back and rest. However, they didn't expect Di Lin to arrive and immediately punish them. Di Lin was known for being ruthless, and many people were afraid of him. The people who were originally planning to resist didn't dare to speak after seeing that person being dragged away.

Di Lin wanted them to see results within seven days. He ordered everyone to cancel their rest and work diligently. The people could only agree and not dare to resist. Lin Bing was left behind to supervise their progress, and those people didn't dare to cause trouble, fearing that they might accidentally offend Di Lin and lose their lives.
