Gui Xingfu is coughing up blood!_3 It truly felt like a day dragged on as long as a year; moreover, she was horrified to discover that she was eagerly, so very eagerly, anticipating Suo Lun’s arrival, bringing her something to eat once more.

She was so incredibly hungry.

At this moment, Gui Qinshao deeply felt that she truly had no shame.

She had cast everything aside for a morsel of food.

…

A few days ago, Gui Xingfu left Linhai City on a secret mission to the royal capital to meet with Zhi Li about some urgent matters.

However, on the third day after his departure, Neishi Yanting Yi from Linhai City caught up to him.

The civil officer had traveled nearly two thousand miles day and night, and he was almost out of breath.

“Quick, quick, City Lord!

You must return immediately,” Yan Tingyi said.

“Miss stole your Commander’s Seal, Madam took charge, and the Third Young Master led the naval forces to attack Chaos Stone Island to vent Miss’s anger.”

Upon hearing this, Gui Xingfu was immediately startled and his complexion turned pale.

“These two reckless children, they’re going to cause a huge disaster…” Gui Xingfu immediately turned his horse around and galloped desperately toward Linhai City.

The head of the guards caught up and said, “City Lord, rest assured, Miss and the Third Young Master will definitely be safe.

Our Gui Clan’s thousands of naval forces are more than enough to wipe out Suo Lun’s ragtag bunch.”

Gui Xingfu replied, “What do you understand?

I’m afraid Gui Qinshao might go too far and kill Suo Lun, and that… that would be a disaster of epic proportions.”

The general was taken aback; Suo Lun was now like a stray dog, and killing him was no different than killing a wild dog.

Although it would certainly damage Lord Gui’s reputation, it couldn’t be that serious, could it?

That’s where wisdom and vision differ.

Yan Tingyi understood the severity of the consequences if Suo Lun was actually killed.

But others were completely unaware of the secrets involved, even Mrs.

Turing Si was utterly clueless.

Worried that his daughter would cause trouble, Gui Xingfu spent the following days without sleep, frantically traveling.

It didn’t matter if everyone on Chaos Stone Island was killed, or if Suo Ningbing was slain, or even if Gui Qinzhong violated her; none of it mattered.

But Suo Lun, he absolutely, absolutely must not die.

If he were to die, it would be akin to slapping the face of a certain ruler harshly.

The fate of the Gui Clan in such a case was all too clear.

However, before he even reached Linhai City, a cavalry unit approached and delivered earth-shaking news.

“Third Young Master Gui Qinzhong led all naval forces to attack Chaotic Stone Peninsula, and not a single one has returned; they are suspected to have been completely annihilated.

Both the Third Young Master and Miss Gui Qinshao have been captured.”

The instant Gui Xingfu heard the news, he was like someone struck by lightning, utterly disbelieving.

“Impossible, impossible…” Gui Xingfu roared: “My Gui Clan’s naval forces could have destroyed Chaos Stone Island ten times over.

Suo Lun, no matter how capable, couldn’t have annihilated my Gui Clan’s naval forces.”

But quickly, a second messenger appeared before Gui Xingfu, bringing with him a very crudely written letter.

“City Lord Gui, your son and daughter are in my hands now.

If you want them to return to you safe and sound, please prepare a ransom of thirty thousand Gold Coins.”

The extortion letter was signed by a certain pirate.

But, to ensure Gui Xingfu recognized that it was Suo Lun’s doing, the original sign-off was “your son-in-law,” which was then crossed out and replaced with “a certain pirate.”

“Suo Lun, fuck your mother!” Gui Xingfu could no longer hold back; his throat turned sweet, and he violently spat out a mouthful of blood.
