Chapter 558: 285: Liren miserable!

Outside the Sky Sea Pavilion!

Count Suo Lun and his entourage had already fully packed up, and a procession of several hundred people was on the road, ready to set off.

Dozens of Martial Arts masters from the Shadow Cabinet, along with hundreds of Samurai, each riding two horses, were escorting two carriages. One belonged to Fu Yan’er and Qin Qin, the other carried the beautiful hounds of Ashi Luo, one of which was the daughter of Sorcerer Yaomeng.

Fu Yan’er, holding Qin Qin’s hand, didn’t feel any sadness at the prospect of leaving. She was so excited that she wished she could fly straight to Tianshui City. But seeing the grand scale of this several-hundred-people procession, she also thought that traveling slowly and allowing others to look on with envy made for a grander spectacle.

In the past, she had been the most beautiful granddaughter of the Lord of Baohuo City, enjoying the most luxurious and privileged lifestyle.

But that had come to an end when she was seventeen years old. For the next six or seven years, she lived a life of hardship, and her perspective had become much like that of an ordinary townswoman, except she was much more beautiful.

Count Suo Lun stood at the forefront of the procession, waiting for Ashi Liren to come for the final farewell.

Fu Yan’er, holding Qin Qin with one hand, couldn’t help but reach out with her other hand to entwine her arm with Suo Lun’s.

Suo Lun pushed her away, but soon she clung to him again.

Suo Lun, annoyed, went to take Qin Qin’s hand and walked to the side, keeping some distance from Fu Yan’er.

Grinding his teeth and his cheeks twitching, Suo Lun managed not to fly into a rage.

Seeing Suo Lun’s almost-rageful expression, Fu Yan’er found him both handsome and adorable, felt utterly charmed, and without feeling any shame, cooed with a flirtatious smile and leaned in to give him a kiss.

"Cousin, we are cousins. Can you please act with some dignity?" Suo Lun said exasperatedly.

"The child is already born, what’s there to act so prim about?" replied Fu Yan’er, proudly glancing at Qin Qin.

Qin Qin, however, turned her head to avoid eye contact with her mother, feeling her mother was shameless and too thick-skinned.

...

Before long, Ashi Liren appeared, holding Ashi Yuanba with her left hand and Ashinan with her right.

From a distance, she looked at Suo Lun, and when she was still dozens of meters away, she stopped, unwilling to get closer to Suo Lun as if nearing him would taint her with his shameless aura.

"Go." Liren said to the two children.

Instantly, Yuanba and Ashinan ran over.

One threw himself into Suo Lun’s arms, while the other ran over to take Qin Qin’s hand.

"Teacher, do you really have to go?" asked Ashi Yuanba, with tears welling up in his eyes.

"Yes, your mother insists on sending me away," Suo Lun replied. "If I don’t leave, she’ll just get angrier and resort to violence."

Ashi Yuanba cried, "But did you do anything wrong?"

"The matters of adults are difficult to judge in terms of right and wrong," said Suo Lun.

Yuanba asked, "Will you come back to see me?"

"I will," replied Suo Lun. "Even if I’m not here, I’ll arrange the lessons you need to learn and send them to you, and I will assign you study tasks as well."

Hearing this, Ashi Yuanba’s spirits lifted. As long as he could still keep in touch with his teacher, as long as Suo Lun would continue to teach him, that was all he needed.

"And, what about Qin Qin?" Ashi Yuanba asked sheepishly, glancing towards her.

Qin Qin looked up at him for a moment and then turned her attention back to Ashinan, who wouldn’t stop talking.

Suo Lun whispered into Yuanba’s ear, "I’ve talked to your mother before. When you grow up, if fate allows, we might arrange for you to marry Qin Qin. Would you like that?"

Immediately, Yuanba blushed and became too embarrassed to speak.

He was mature for his age, but his body was just like any other child’s. He was still just a kid, not really understanding these things, yet he found Qin Qin exceptionally special. At first, he always wanted to tease her, then he couldn’t help trying to please her.

Suo Lun pinched his cheek, "So when you grow up, make sure you don’t mess around with other girls."

Ashi Yuanba’s face turned even redder, and he stammered, "I won’t, I won’t..."

Once upon a time, Ashi Luo too was innocent and had known only Taosu from childhood, her one and only love until her teens.

But the horrifying experiences Ashi Luo had gone through were definitely not something Suo Lun would allow Ashi Yuanba to experience again.

"Teacher, do you really have to go?" Ashi Yuanba said sorrowfully. "There are so many people opposing my mother now, she’s in danger. Please stay and help her."

Suo Lun looked at Ashi Liren again and replied, "Your mother won’t allow it. If I don’t leave, she’s ready to unsheathe her sword and drive me out."

Ashi Liren, seeing Suo Lun still inciting her child at this moment, angrily said, "Count Suo Lun, the sun is about to rise. You have a few minutes left. If you don’t go now, don’t blame me for being rude."

Then, she drew her treasured sword halfway from its sheath.

Suddenly, three thousand Rouran City Cavalry around also fiercely unsheathed their swords.

The atmosphere became incredibly tense.

If it really came to the point of being expelled by force, it would be a huge loss of face.

"Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go..." Suo Lun said. "We’re leaving."

Then, turning to Yuanba, Suo Lun said, "Take good care of your mother, and write to your teacher often."

Yuanba, holding back tears, nodded fiercely.

"Let’s set off," Suo Lun commanded.

Fu Yan’er, unable to wait any longer, eagerly boarded the carriage with Qin Qin.

The procession of several hundred people began to move, leaving Rouran City.

Yuanba and Anan went back to their mother’s side, Yuanba looked back at Suo Lun, continuously wiping away tears.

Anan simply hugged her mother’s leg and cried her heart out.

Riding his horse, Suo Lun stayed beside Qin Qin’s carriage, passing by Ashi Liren without a word.

During their final goodbye, the two did not exchange a single word.
