Chapter 369: 2020: Wedding Invitations!

Ashi Liren collapsed just like that, with only a six- or seven-year-old girl by her side.

Although this place couldn’t be described as bustling, there were still people passing by. Even though Ashi Liren was still veiled, her peerless elegance and enchanting figure were enough to drive anyone mad.

Therefore, if any man with ill intentions passed by, the consequences were unimaginable.

Suo Lun was frantic with worry, yet he was bound all over, unable to move, even his mouth was gagged, making him incapable of making a sound.

At this moment, his only hope was Xiao Guai, the unreliable Lion-Tiger Beast.

When Suo Lun was captured by the assassin of the Underworld Society, the Lion-Tiger Beast had also obediently become a captive, docilely ridden by the assassins of the Underworld Society, without showing the slightest bit of resistance.

This foolish creature, where was even a hint of the majesty befitting the king of beasts? Captured so many times, it didn’t even dare to bare its teeth.

However, since Suo Lun couldn’t shout out with his mouth now, he could only use spiritual power.

He located the direction of the Lion-Tiger Beast Xiao Guai and released a spiritual summoning, "Xiao Guai, come over here."

If it were a human, only a person with strong spiritual power could sense Suo Lun’s call, but beasts were more sensitive in this aspect. Most of the time, Suo Lun communicated with the Lion-Tiger Beast using spiritual power.

This was like the racehorses on Earth, where the rider and his steed achieved a spiritual connection.

As expected, the huge Lion-Tiger Beast Xiao Guai came running over, arrogantly flipping away the carriage wall, appearing extremely formidable.

Suo Lun was speechless, all the assassins were dead, and now you’re showing off your might?

Without needing Suo Lun’s instructions, the Lion-Tiger Beast immediately tried to rip the ropes binding Suo Lun with its claws.

But it found that the ropes couldn’t be torn apart at all, then it tried to cut them with its claws, only to realize it still couldn’t cut through.

Suo Lun was truly surprised. Xiao Guai’s claws were as sharp and hard as knives, yet they couldn’t cut through the ropes binding him; what in the world were these ropes made of?

But Xiao Guai was clever. It ran over to a Dragon Swordsman assassin, took one of their swords in its mouth.

The Underworld Society was extremely wealthy. One could say that the amount of Gold Coins a senior assassin from the Underworld Society earned from successfully killing a target was enough for him to live a happy life.

Therefore, an assassin of the Dragon Swordsman level was very likely to possess a platinum sword.

Platinum, being malleable, tough, and lightweight, was most suitable for an assassin’s sword.

The Lion-Tiger Beast Xiao Guai held a platinum sword in its mouth and returned to Suo Lun’s side, then slowly began to sever the ropes binding Suo Lun.

After a full minute of cutting, the ropes binding Suo Lun’s body were finally severed, and he regained his freedom.

"Ao ao ao..." The Lion-Tiger Beast excitedly showed off its achievement.

"You, when enemies were present, you were more cowardly than anyone," Suo Lun said as he patted its big head.

Then, Suo Lun picked up the bow of one of the Dragon Archers, along with two quivers of arrows.

He then walked over and crouched down by Ashi Liren’s side.

For some reason, as soon as he approached her, he felt a chill, and his nostrils were filled with a mysterious and enchanting fragrance.

Suo Lun extended his hand, wanting to check her breathing.

"You mustn’t touch Auntie," the little girl opened her two small hands, blocking Suo Lun’s approach.

Suo Lun tried to make his voice as gentle as possible, "Uncle is not a bad person; uncle wants to help this auntie."

The little girl looked at Suo Lun for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, you are a bad person."

Suo Lun was taken aback. The eyes of a child are the most direct and the least deceptive. And this little girl here actually called him a bad person – why was that?

Then, Suo Lun looked at Ashi Liren.

She was still covered with a veil, her eyes closed.

But just the upturned eyelashes, the dream-like brows, and the high-bridged nose were already breathtaking.

It was really hard to imagine just how beautiful the face under the veil could be?

Alien beauties, indeed, possessed a unique allure.

Moreover, after getting close to her, that innate fragrance became even more enchanting, as if a single whiff could intoxicate a person.

Without a doubt, she was the fairest woman Suo Lun had ever seen, truly as white as snow.

However, her brows did not seem to show any signs of pain at the moment, just slightly furrowed.

He reached out to touch Ashi Liren’s neck artery to feel if her pulse was beating.

"You mustn’t touch Auntie," the little girl forcefully slapped away Suo Lun’s hand.

"I am here to help," said Suo Lun. Then he embraced the little girl, allowing her to bite and struggle, while his right hand reached for Ashi Liren’s carotid artery.

However...

Suo Lun’s hand had barely made contact with the skin of Ashi Liren’s neck, not even fully touching her when suddenly...

His entire arm went numb, and then a terrifying Ice-cold Energy surged into it.

"Yi!" Then, Suo Lun’s entire right arm was instantly frozen, losing all sensation.

Suo Lun was extremely shocked. Merely touching it a bit and it became encased in ice - that was far too... frightening.

Yao Xing quickly released a wave of searing energy, melting the ice on his right arm.

It could be said that if it weren’t for Yao Xing’s existence, Suo Lun’s right arm would have been ruined.

"Master, don’t touch her. Just stand guard beside her, that would be fine," said Yao Xing.

Suo Lun asked, "What’s going on with her? She was fine just now, how could she suddenly faint?"

Yao Xing answered, "She was born with the rare Dragon Yin Absolute Vein, extremely rare, one in hundreds of millions. Those with such a lineage naturally carry an extremely powerful Yin cold energy, which backlashes at intervals. Normally, those with this bloodline could not live past the age of sixteen, yet for some reason she has lived till now, and her martial arts are so strong."
