Chapter 334: One Eight Seven: Definite! Conquer Zhi Ning!_3

Ashi Luo kicked out impatiently.

"Oof..." The Beauty Beast was kicked more than ten meters away, slamming heavily onto the ground, coughing up a mouthful of fresh blood, struggling to stand, yet still whimpering like a puppy from its mouth.

Ashi Luo halted his steps, turned around and picked the Beauty Beast up, saying, "Sorry, did my kick hurt you?"

To his surprise, the Beauty Beast pleasingly extended its small tongue to lick his palm.

Her tongue was covered entirely in fresh blood, thus painting Ashi Luo’s palm a rosy hue as well.

...

Watching Ashi Luo’s retreating figure, Sword Master Bi Xiao’s face was filled with worries as he said, "Suo Lun, how did you get into trouble with this... devil?"

Suo Lun said, "Are you, the great Sword Master, also afraid of him?"

The Sword Master shook his head and said, "You have no idea how significant his background is, how overprotective that old ancestor from the Demon Continent is. This Ashi Luo is the absolute last person in the entire Human Kingdom anyone would want to provoke or dare to provoke."

Suo Lun said, "Even you, the Sword Master, can’t provoke him?"

Bi Xiao said, "You are overestimating me; I have told you before that martial skills are the least remarkable thing in this world. Furthermore, his martial prowess will surpass mine in a few years. Among his peers, his martial prowess is practically invincible; probably only Jiang Xue from Dongli Kingdom could defeat him."

Suo Lun exclaimed, "His talent is that extraordinary?"

Bi Xiao said, "Not only is his talent extraordinary, but the cultivation method he practices is terrifying. ’Yin for Yang,’ the more powerful the women he subdues, the quicker his cultivation breakthroughs."

Suo Lun shouted in shock, "There is actually something like that?"

Bi Xiao said, "The Demon Continent, being the most mysterious and evil among the world’s four major forces, of course, has all manner of peculiarities."

At that moment, Eunuch Gao Ningshi suddenly said, "Count Suo Lun, there is still time for you to hand over Miss Suo Ningbing to me; I will deliver her to young master Ashi Luo. Otherwise, the consequences are something you cannot bear."

Instantly, Suo Lun pointed to his nose and said coldly, "Go, return to your master, and convey a message for me."

Eunuch Gao Ningshi’s face was frosty as he asked word by word, "What message?"

Suo Lun said, "Zhi Ting, you damn fool!"

At these words, Gao Ningshi hissed, "Suo Lun, you’re courting death!"

With that, he was about to viciously slash down with his monk’s spade.

Bi Xiao used his scabbard to block, and instantly Gao Ning’s monk’s spade was completely stuck, unable to move.

"Elder Gao, did you forget I exist?" Bi Xiao said coldly.

Gao Ningshi glared coldly at the Sword Master, then said to Suo Lun, "Count Suo Lun, you’ve just cut off your last lifeline. Soon you will lose everything, this Chaos Stone Island, the entirety of Tianshui City, even your own life; the saddest part is, even sacrificing your life will not save your sister Suo Ningbing. What’s the point?"

"Let’s go," ordered Gao Ningshi, leading the four eunuchs away.

...

Half an hour later, Ashi Luo’s fleet withdrew completely, and Gao Ningshi and the four eunuchs also left.

Chaos Stone Island then returned to a quiet state, a dead-like silence.

Suo Lun smiled at Suo Ningbing and said, "Let’s go; we’re returning to Tianshui City, we’re going home."

With a desolate expression, Suo Ningbing said, "Little brother, the legendary woman who brings disaster, could that be me?"

Suo Lun said, "Don’t think nonsense; just follow me home. I’ve said I could protect you, and I definitely will."

Suo Ningbing said, "But what should we do about Ashi Luo, that demon? If going with him can protect you, I am willing..."

She was cut off before finishing as Suo Lun covered her mouth.

"Sister, trust me. This situation is extremely complicated, far more so than you imagine," Suo Lun spoke deliberately, "If I say it’s all right, then it’s all right; I say I can protect you, and I definitely will protect you."

"Yes," Suo Ningbing answered softly.

Two hours later, Suo Lun, Suo Ningbing, and Ye Jingyu boarded the ship, sailing towards Tianshui City.

On the ship, Ye Jingyu and Suo Lun stood at the bow, looking at the rolling river and said, "Master, what should we do? Where should we head? I thought after the great battle of Tianshui City, we’d have a clear path ahead, but it turned out to be an abyss."

Her words were filled with despair. She felt it all happened so suddenly, entirely without any mental preparation.

"Can you see what’s ahead of us?" Suo Lun asked while gazing at the misty sea ahead.

Ye Jingyu shook her head, "It’s shrouded in fog; I can’t see anything."

"But I can," said Suo Lun. "Every time before, I’ve led us through the crisis, and this will be no exception."

As he spoke, Suo Lun looked into the distance as if trying to peer through the fog to clearly see everything.

...

The next day at dawn, Suo Lun returned to Heavenly Water Main City, and upon his return, he heard some terrible news.

"City Lord, Duke Zhi Wei’s army of a hundred thousand has entered Baiyun County, less than a hundred miles from the Tianshui City Territory," reported Suo Danchen. "Zhi Wei’s son, Zhi You, has been waiting in the City Lord’s mansion for a long time. His demeanor is menacing; he means no good."

Suo Lun asked, "Where is Elder Yan Shuang?"

Suo Danchen replied, "Great Commander Yan Shuang has led the troops to Wind Thunder Fortress to block Duke Zhi Wei’s advancing army."

Wind Thunder Fortress, the westernmost fortress in Tianshui City Territory, borders Baiyun County and is a critical passage to enter Tianshui City from the west.
