Chapter 455: 241: The great battle resumes!
As Suo Lun held the creamy jade carving, his heart fluttered before he was suddenly taken aback.
Nai’er was bold and forward in matters of the heart, but extremely conservative and pure when it came to physical relationships; she had always insisted on waiting until their wedding night to give herself completely to Suo Lun.
Their relationship could usually go no further than kissing, any further and she would resist.
Suo Lun’s hands were restless, often taking the opportunity to sneak in a touch, and for that, he was not punished just once or twice.
To his surprise, she was now the one offering herself to him.
However, Suo Lun was never one to turn down an advantage. His hands were never idle, and as he nibbled on Nai’er’s earlobe, he whispered softly, "Baby, didn’t you always say you’d give yourself to me on our wedding night?"
Unable to withstand Suo Lun’s teasing, Nai’er’s delicate body immediately became limp and numb, her breathing quickened.
She had always insisted on maintaining formal propriety, determined to save the best moment for their wedding night, so life would have no regrets.
But the day before yesterday, when she heard from Turing Chen about Suo Lun’s death, what surged in her heart was endless regret.
Why hadn’t she given herself to Suo Lun before?
That way, even if she died, there would be not much to regret.
So when Suo Lun reappeared before her, after the wild joy of regaining what was lost, the first words she spoke were an offer of her body to Suo Lun.
If anything unforeseen happened again, she would have no regrets.
Moreover, she had another purpose.
This time, after her intense battle with Turing Chen, she had been seriously injured, but was instantly healed by an evil energy! So, she had no idea how many years of life she had overdrawn.
Therefore, she felt she and Suo Lun should cherish every moment together, entwined in love.
But Suo Lun didn’t want it that way.
He needed to give Nai’er a goal, the goal of their wedding night.
That way she wouldn’t think wildly and would cherish her own life.
"I of course eagerly desire you, but this is in my aunt’s room. She’s an elder, practically your mother-in-law. You wake up and instead of going to meet your mother-in-law, you seek to be intimate with me, that doesn’t seem proper," Suo Lun said as his hands slid down beneath Nai’er’s clothes.
Already lost in his caresses, Nai’er was in a daze.
After hearing his words, she was startled back to her senses, quickly sat up her delicate form, and gave him a sharp glare, "Take me to her now."
Then, she threw off the covers and strode out. She was wearing a soft, snow-white silk nightgown, with nothing underneath.
"You go out, I need to wash," said Nai’er.
"When I carried you aboard the ship, I already washed you, every part of you. I assure you it was pure and fragrant," Suo Lun said with a frivolous tone.
Grinding her teeth, Nai’er dragged him out of the room and then shut the door behind them.
A moment later, there was a faint sound of water from inside, and roughly a few minutes later, Nai’er emerged with her cheeks flushed.
"Let’s go!" Nai’er said, "Take me to meet the mother-in-law!"
...
Upon seeing Queen Yan Chuo, Nai’er’s face lit up with surprise, she had not expected Suo Lun’s aunt to be so beautiful and poised.
She knelt down with reverence and said, "Yan Nai’er greets the mother-in-law."
Queen Yan Chuo was surprised and replied, "Rise."
Then, both of them found themselves at a loss for words.
Neither Nai’er nor Queen Yan Chuo were good with words.
If it had been the earlier Queen Yan Chuo, she would have truly regarded Nai’er as her daughter-in-law, filled with tenderness.
However, she had now lost her memory. The reason she helped Suo Lun was for lack of a better choice, and because Suo Lun had saved her life several times.
The reason she doted on Yan Xue was because of their blood connection, and also because this girl’s presence inspired immense affection.
"You, are you my sister-in-law?" whispers the little Princess Yan Xue from the side.
Nai’er turned to Xiaoxue and nodded, "Yes, are you Xiaoxue? You’re truly beautiful."
Xiaoxue’s cheeks turned red with joy as she said, "But it’s Sister-in-law who is more beautiful. Mother Queen first, you second, Xiaoxue third."
Then, she said to Nai’er, "I’ve been wedded to Brother Shen Lang, but Mother Queen said it was not real. Can I still go to play with him later, Sister-in-law?"
A warmth flooded Nai’er’s heart, and with a tender gaze, she replied, "Of course you can, he is your brother and I am your sister-in-law; we will both cherish you."
...
Lord Tuli Yun’s flagship arrived at Luan Yang City after.
Turing Chen hurried off the ship, clutching a box that contained his severed arm, preserved in ice.
He rushed to the residence of the City Lord of Luan Yang, because inside was the best Medical Daoist Monk who was treating Miss Turing Duo.
"Honorable Monk, is it possible to reattach my hand?" Turing Chen said, "Right after it was cut off, I placed it in ice, preventing any decay."
The Medical Daoist Monk took Turing Chen’s severed arm, noticed its freshness and integrity, and observed the smooth cut. After closing his eyes and giving a light sniff, he shook his head, "I’m afraid not."
Turing Chen’s expression darkened as he exclaimed, "Why not? Isn’t it said that a limb can still function if put in ice immediately, even for a few days after being severed?"
"Your arm was severed four days ago; that is too long," replied the Medical Daoist Monk. "Furthermore, the most critical issue is that a terrifying energy resides in the wound, making reattachment impossible."
Turing Chen was close to roaring in fury; he... he was going to lack an arm from now on? Even though he used his right hand to wield a sword, how grotesque would he look without an arm? He was the heir to Duke Turing’s Mansion.
"Ah... Ah, Yan Nai’er, there’ll come a day when I’ll ravage then kill you with my own hands!" Turing Chen roared inwardly.
Then, he charged toward another room and violently kicked the door open.
Inside, Miss Turing Duo who had been recuperating in a deep sleep, awoke with a start, and looking at Turing Chen, said in surprise, "Brother, what’s wrong?"
Turing Chen came forward and fiercely slapped her several times.
"Smack smack smack smack..."
Turing Duo couldn’t move and was left to the mercy of the beating, her face swelling red and bloody from the nose and mouth.
"Didn’t you say Suo Lun was dead?" Turing Chen said harshly.
Full of anger initially, Turing Duo shuddered inside upon hearing this, "What, what are you saying? Could it be Suo Lun isn’t dead?"
"Yes, not only is he not dead, but he’s also in great shape, and he even brought the Queen’s Island Fleet with him, scattering us to the winds. If we hadn’t used Yan Nai’er as a hostage, none of us would have made it back, and I... I even lost an arm." Turing Chen continued fiercely before grabbing Turing Duo’s hair, preparing to lift her up.
At this moment, Turing Duo’s bones were broken, and she was barely recovering from being set in place. If he lifted her, it would be fatal.
"Stop!" Lord Tuli Ming entered and commanded coldly.
Turing Chen said hoarsely, "Your Excellency, she’s the one who cost you five thousand of the water army."
Lord Tuli Ming said, "As a person, one must accept the responsibilities due to them. Turing Duo has fulfilled her mission in the Archipelagos of Rock, having the Yan Mo take action to kill Suo Lun. As for Suo Lun not dying after falling into the abyss, that’s his destiny, what has it got to do with Turing Duo? Besides, what’s wrong with Turing Duo ordering an attack on Suo Lun’s Magic Mirror Secret Island with our fleet? Weren’t we close to success? As for encountering Suo Lun’s Queen’s Island Fleet, that was fate, what has it got to do with Miss Turing Duo?"
These words took Turing Chen back.
Lord Tuli Ming continued, "The loss of five thousand water soldiers, of course, is painful for me. But, have we done anything wrong from the beginning? If not, why should we regret or take out our anger on others?"
Upon hearing this, Turing Chen lost face and left without a word.
Lying on the bed, Turing Duo was profoundly shocked. Only a ruler like Tuli Ming deserved the full loyalty of his subordinates.
"Miss Turing, rest well and heal." Tuli Ming left the room.
After returning to his mansion, Lord Tuli Ming immediately issued an order!
"Assemble thirty thousand of the water army, three hundred warships, prepare to eradicate Suo!"
Originally, Lord Luan Yang only planned to deploy half the force for the battle to eradicate Suo, a total of twenty thousand water soldiers and two hundred ships.
This time, after losing five thousand of the water army in the attempted raid on the Magic Mirror Secret Island, Tuli Ming not only didn’t shrink back but instead upped the stakes, deploying thirty thousand water soldiers and three hundred warships.
Even when hunting a rabbit, exert all your might!
After issuing the order, he immediately sent out carrier pigeons, flying to Wangcheng Zidu, to pirate harbors, to the Hai Family of Yingzhou, to Linhai’s Mr. Gui.
The secret letter read, "Suo Lun is not dead, he has the Yan Queen’s Island Fleet."
At the bottom of the letter, in even smaller cipher it read, "Luan Yang City is preparing to deploy thirty thousand water soldiers, three hundred ships, hunting like a lion or tiger, exerting full effort, everyone be warned."
Gui Xingfu was the first to receive the secret letter, his face twitching violently.
Suo Lun... still not dead? Could it be that he truly has Heaven’s protection?
Then, gritting his teeth, he ordered, "Put forward all water army forces, prepare for the great battle to eradicate Suo!"
Gui Qinzhong said, "Father, but half of the water army have only just boarded the ships recently."
Gui Xingfu responded, "Assemble all, come out in full force."
"Yes!" said Gui Qinzhong and Gui Qinqu.
At Linhai’s the Gui Clan, the originally assembled two thousand water soldiers were ready. Now, under Gui Xingfu’s command, they gathered another three thousand recently trained water soldiers.
A total of sixty ships, five thousand water soldiers.
There were also fifteen thousand ground troops ready to engage in ground combat.
...
Duke Turing Tuo received the secret letter on his journey along the Ling River, impulsively punching through the cabin’s wooden planks.
From a bird’s-eye view, a fleet composed of several hundred cargo ships and warships sailed majestically down Ling River toward the East Sea.
This fleet, totaling an army of fifty thousand, was boarding the cargo ships provided by Luan Yang City and Yingzhou Island, heading to assemble near Luan Yang City.
"Full speed ahead," Duke Turing Tuo ordered, "In five days, we will reach the waters near Luan Yang City and join with the other forces."
...
Yingzhou Island.
Ashi Luo, Hai Wuyan, and A Shi Zhuo received the secret letter last because of distance.
"Suo Lun is not dead," Ashi Luo said nonchalantly.
Hai Wuyan’s eyes narrowed. Originally, he was not very interested in the battle to eradicate Suo, so he only dispatched the fleet portion under Hai Na’er’s command.
But now, things were different.
"I will also deploy ten thousand water soldiers and one hundred warships for the great battle to eradicate Suo!"
"And while we’re at it, also send a letter to the Thunder Archipelago, tell Yan Mo that Suo Lun is not dead, and neither is his mother!"
A few days later.
Four hundred warships and forty thousand water soldiers set out from Yingzhou Island, marching south to join forces near Luan Yang City.
With this, the armies of all four powers had been mobilized.
Initially, there were just over fifty thousand water soldiers and one hundred and ten thousand ground forces participating in the battle to eradicate Suo.
But now, there were a full seventy thousand water soldiers and one hundred and thirty thousand ground forces!
The real power of tenfold, the true crushing force.
...
At this time, Suo Lun’s Queen Island Fleet was officially docked at the Tianshui City port.
Seven thousand Rock Pirates, over a hundred warships, this was all the naval power at Suo Lun’s disposal.
He was about to engage in an extremely uneven battle.
A battle that seemed to have no chance of victory.
Suo Lun, who had just landed, immediately boarded a ship and silently sailed toward the southeast.
Because there, he had the secret weapon that could win him this great decisive battle.
