Chapter 787: 381: Turing Duo Pregnant? The Great Battle with Yan Mo!

Note: The second update from last night did not show up in the app’s bookshelf, but it was indeed updated on time. The plot is very important, so don’t miss it.

...

"Please, both of you, rise," Suo Lun personally helped City Lord Tuli Wen to his feet.

Tuli Yang said, "Lord Suo Lun, from now on I will do everything in my power to help you defeat Zhi Li. If there comes a day when we are victorious, I ask that you give Turing Duo into my hands for disposal."

"Agreed," Suo Lun said.

Tuli Yang continued, "Now, Zhi Li and that whore Turing Duo will surely pin the crime of my assassination on you, Lord Suo Lun, and then take the opportunity to go to war against you."

Suo Lun laughed and said, "That’s not all, just received news. Turing Duo, in mourning for you, led more than two hundred samurai of the Tuli Family, all dressed in mourning attire, carrying two hundred coffins to petition the royal palace, demanding to wage war on me to avenge you. Hundreds of thousands of civilians from the capital volunteered to follow, their cries shaking the heavens. Turing Duo’s chastity and her deep love for you have moved heaven and earth. Now all the lords, nobles, high-ranking officers, and the scholarly groups across the land have signed the Edict Against Treason. And they will gather an army of eight hundred thousand to besiege Tianshui City, truly the world against me, Suo Lun."

"Whore, whore, this whore..." Tuli Yang trembled with rage, nearly spitting blood.

Then, Tuli Yang said, "I will go to the royal palace immediately to make the truth known to the world."

Suo Lun said, "No, if I lose this battle with Yan Mo, revealing the truth will be of no help. But if I win this battle with Yan Mo, your appearance will deal a lethal blow to Zhi Li, who will then face a rebellion from his own allies. Therefore, everything hinges on this battle with Yan Mo."

Tuli Yang asked, "What can we do in this battle?"

After thinking for a moment, Suo Lun said, "Nothing. Just continue to hide and follow me to witness the decisive battle with Yan Mo."

Suddenly, Tuli Wen asked, "Lord Suo Lun, in this battle with Yan Mo, how confident are you of victory?"

Suo Lun said, "I would like to say that I am 70 percent confident, but in reality I don’t even have a 30 percent chance. In the previous great battle, even when Gui Xingfu and Zhi Wei and several other large armies besieged Tianshui City, I still felt 60 to 70 percent sure of victory. But against Yan Mo in this battle, I can only say, it’s up to destiny!"

Tuli Wen said, "Losing is losing, winning is winning. Why say it’s up to destiny?"

Suo Lun said, "Because the upcoming battle will be an unprecedented naval engagement. My navy is brand new, representing the future and the advance of naval warfare. Unfortunately, it is still but a budding navy and according to my plan, it would be at least six or seven years before it would truly be ready for combat. Yet now, I must bring this infant navy out to battle the beast that is Yan Mo. The outcome, therefore, can only be left to fate!"

And at that moment!

A griffin landed on the deck, and a Shadow Cabinet Warrior leapt down, turning to Zhuang Zhixuan, "Important military intelligence to be reported to Marquis Suo Lun."

Suo Lun left the cabin and went up to the deck.

The Shadow Cabinet Warrior kneeled and said, "My lord, Yan Mo’s one hundred thousand strong navy has completed its final assembly and is majestically sailing southward, still 3,200 miles away from the waters of Tianshui City."

Three thousand two hundred miles away, if all goes to plan, they should reach the waters of Tianshui City in four days.

The upcoming battle will be a total head-on clash, unlikely to involve any tricks or schemes.

Suo Lun ordered, "Cease all exercises for the entire force, head to the harbor for the final resupply, then assemble in our most familiar waters, waiting for the arrival of Yan Mo’s grand army, waiting for the onset of the decisive battle!"

"Yes!"

Over half an hour later, Suo Lun’s fleet ended their month-long live exercise and headed towards the two large ports of Tianshui City.

The decisive battle was about to erupt!

...

Near the Pirate Bay!

Yan Mo stood on the flagship, looking over his vast navy, one hundred thousand strong, plus the supply ships, amounting to a thousand ships in total.

The entire fleet formed a dagger-like formation on the sea, stretching out for dozens of miles, truly boundless.

Those fleets that blocked out the sky were advancing mightily southward, setting their course toward the waters of Tianshui City.

Yan Mo did not utter a declaration of war, instead, he said just one sentence.

"Head south to the waters of Tianshui City, to kill with pleasure, to plunder with pleasure, to ravage with pleasure!"

This single sentence completely ignited the one hundred thousand navy forces.

All the Rock Pirates and buccaneers were boiling with blood, falling into madness in anticipation. They were filled with an insatiable desire for the upcoming slaughter and plunder.

As Yan Mo savored the sea breeze, there wasn’t much heroism in his heart, but rather a faint derision and sorrow.

Suo Lun was his half-brother, sharing the same father, yet it was this brother who was forcing him to a deadly corner.

Months ago, after rejecting his mother Yan Chuo’er’s plea for help, Yan Mo knew that there was no longer any room to ease the conflict with Suo Lun.

If they were enemies, then he had to be eliminated, especially when he was at his weakest.

At that moment, Zhi Li generously offered terms that were impossible to refuse, conceding tremendous benefits.

Thus, for Yan Mo, eliminating Suo Lun became inevitable.

The latest news he had received indicated that Suo Lun had incited public fury by attempting to assassinate Tuli Yang, thus the world gathered against Suo Lun.

An army of eight hundred thousand was beginning to assemble, ready to deliver the fatal blow to Suo Lun.

And so, his half-brother’s fate of destruction had been sealed.
