Chapter 517: To Know the Limit

Chapter 517: To Know the Limit

And there is an advantage to this method

The more he pretends to be calm, the calmer he became. It is like pretending to be calm, in that process, one also become calm

They look at each other, husband and wife. Ayera is nurturing the sword in her heart. The more she nurtures it, the sharper it become

She did not use the curved knife. Instead, she uses only her daggers and her other hidden weapons.

It is not that she forget to use the knife. It is not that she did not know how to use it. She knows

It is just not the right time yet. When it is time, she would unsheathe her knife and when she unsheathe her knife the sword that is being nurture din her heart would also shows its sharp edges

Ayera is taking a breath.

Aeryon did not rush and attack Ayera. Was it because of pity? Or was it because he wanted to convince her?

Ayera attack might seem lethal.

To any person who sees the attack that she did, each one is lethal and could cripple a person.

But Ayera knows Aeryon strength.

Even though her attacks all seems lethal, Ayera has great confidence that Aeryon could neutralize it.

The attack before was the opening attack.

She wanted to know the limit of her husband strength. Last time, Aeryon also subdued her with strength.

But that time and now is different

Ayera also has improved.

She wanted to know the limit of this husband of hers.

So, she did not hesitate to use killing moves. And just like she had expected her husband could easily dodge it.

And he dodge it almost effortlessly.

Ayera never thought of killing Aeryon.

Not to mention that Aeryon did not do anything wrong to her.

She also knows that if she did kill Aeryon, not only she would die, every member of her tribe would be killed.

Belarion, Mukhulai, Burchu, and many other heroes that has been recruited by Brolgadhr would avenge Aeryon if they wanted to swallow Aeryon legacy

No, Ayera has not ill will against Aeryon.

Instead, there is affection. And a bit of a love blooming

Time has nurtured these feelings even more.

The more she knows Aeryon as a man, the more she falls for him

But the things between him and Aeryon is not simple because they are from different tribes.

If their tribes relationship is equal or good, then this wedding and the union between these two people would not be so complicated.

But she is the daughter of the Viper and the Brolgadhr tribe is a tribe that has hegemonic ambition

Aeryon is different than any man of the Steppe he has ever meet. He is also different from the scholars of Yan

A charm that she could not really explain.

Hence, from the very beginning, Ayera had never thought of trying to kill him. No, that is far from what she had envisioned and planned. It is nothing more than she is trying to made Aeryon agree with him

So, she could only fight. Even if it prove useless, she owe it to herself. And she has her own consideration for doing things like this.

Aeryon and Ayera only traded blows in a few dozen move but each of their blows created powerful sounds and the pavilion is already on the verge of exploding.

Aeryon had dismissed his guards before.

But just because he dismissed them from the pavilion area did not mean all the guards just go away.

They just kept their distance.

Aeryon personal guards are all people with abilities.

Some of them have uncanny ability to track people, some have great hearing, some have great eyesight, but all of them have great strength.

In battle, they were the guards that would be around Aeryon and surrounded Aeryon if he is in danger

They would die first before Aeryon could die.

This unit is just created.

The one that create this unit is Mayeux.

Aeryon after all, is no longer a chief of a small tribe.

before, he could go fight in the battlefield alone.

There is a difference of value between Aeryon dying today, and Aeryon dying in the past.

In the past, if he died, his death would only be a loss to the Brolgadhr tribe and would not create chaos.

But today, if he died, the entire lower south would fall into chaos.

The generals and commanders that holds great power all over the region that the Brolgadhr tribe controlled would rises up and each one would carve their own territory from the sphere of influence of Brolgadhr tribe

Aeryon death now could affect the entire Southern Great Steppe.

Aeryon daring attack during the Wustkazan conquest strengthened Mayeux resolve of creating a death squad that would protect Aeryon with their lives

In Yan, they trained this kind of people from when they are a child.

Clearly Mayeux did not have time to create such a loyal child.

After all, the foundation of the Brolgadhr tribe is quite weak

Mayeux then recruited these people from the slave market, from exiled lands and from runaways

But all of them have some specialities that made them able to survive this harsh steppe. There is a hundred of such men.

Out of these hundred men, seven of them are the most powerful and most suitable to guard Aeryon

These seven people when they were ask to dismissed from the pavilion retreated not far away from the leisure residence.

They are far away enough that they could not hear what the Kan and his wife is talking about but not so far that they could not hear if there is a commotion

And then.....they hear a commotion

And all of them jump through the trees, slides through the branches, flying across the waters, running as fast as lightning toward the pavilion.

In just a few second, they arrived at the pavilion. They see the terrible condition of the pavilion, the rippling water on the lake, the dagger on the ground and on the trees and they could feel the killing intent.

Their eyes are all cold and all of them look at Ayera.

"The Kan wife is harming the Kan! Protect the Kan!" The leader of these seven people shouted.

This pavilion is the inner pavilion. If not for that, the entire guards of the entire Kan compound would rush in here.

They all jump toward the Kan, surrounding the Kan in a circle protecting him while the leader unsheathed his curved sword and pointed toward Ayera.

"Katun, please retreat and let the Kan levy judgement!"

Ayera look at these seven people that appears out of nowhere. She scoffed

"HAHAHA! Even shrimps would dare to enter this battle!"

She laughed, kick the ground, and she closed the distance between her and that guard almost in an instant, she arrived in front of that guard.

Ayera did not use her knife instead she uses her palm. She is about to attack the leader of these seven men.

The one holding the saber cut the space.

Smiles on her face, her movement is like a wind squalls that appears and disappears, unpredictable and beautiful, and the direction of the swing of the saber was deflected slightly, missing Ayera head by an inch

Aeryon did not stop his guard instead he looks at Ayera and watch her every move with great attention

Ayera thrust out her palm.

The leader of these seven men are a great practitioner of the saber.

His saber strike could cut through thick stones even if he uses normal saber.

This person once travelled through the land of Yan and learned the method of saber from the wandering heroes of the barbarians

From butchers of horses in the Sirong and Songnu tribe, from captured martial artist of Yan, from warriors and generals of Western Zhou, his method of the saber is learned from these people

Some taught him willingly and some were forced and some others were learned through first-hand experience

Hence, his saber method is quite ingenious.

But there is a reason why he could not make a name for himself in the vast Steppe.

His saber method is ingenious but he has no Kusa. No internal energy.

The method of internal energy is not possessed by him so how could he become famous.

The ability to cut through stones with using a saber relies on his strength and his eyes.

Today, that saber strike could have cut off Ayera head with one strike.

But in front of Ayera eyes, every movement of this person is slow.

She only need to do some tricks, the saber is deflected and now as the saber missed its target, this man could no longer made any moves to protect his chest.

Ayera smiles, her soft hands did not seems to contain great power but the palm connected to this person chest and the sound of bones breaking could be heard echoing

CRACK!

Argh!.

The leader of these seven men who always seems powerful in the eyes of the other six was thrown back violently toward one of the pillar of the pavilion

His entire body exploded with the sound of bones breaking and flesh splitting. This kind of pain, you could not imagine it, unless you experience it.

One of the six jump forward, and receive the leader and then retreated back to Aeryon side. Aeryon look at this and his eyes narrows
