Chapter 824: 395: Yan Chuo’er is gentle! Zhi Li hears the terrible news!

At this moment, only Suo Lun and Yan Chuo’er remained in the room.

Yan Chuo’er pulled out the antidote and gently applied it to the back of Suo Lun’s neck. The power of the medicine penetrated into Suo Lun’s nervous system and then gradually spread throughout his body.

Very soon, Suo Lun regained sensation throughout his body.

Originally, Yao Xing was capable of quickly removing the nerve paralysis toxin from Suo Lun’s body, allowing him to move again.

However, after Suo Lun issued his order, Yao Xing refused to act.

Yao Xing said it felt that Queen Yanchuo’s proposal was more beneficial for Suo Lun and that there was no danger to him. If it removed the nerve paralysis toxin from Suo Lun at that moment, it would be harming Suo Lun’s interests.

Thus, under Queen Yanchuo’s machinations and Yao Xing’s inaction, Suo Lun was turned from uncooked rice into cooked rice.

In the presence of the Yan clan, he and Yan Chuo’er completed their marriage alliance, and he garnered the loyalty of the entire Yan clan.

...

Very quickly, Suo Lun regained his mobility, yet found himself suddenly unable to utter half a word.

"Ling, my apologies," said Yan Chuo’er tenderly.

Immediately, Suo Lun could only smile helplessly, unable to summon any words.

He certainly couldn’t say, "How can you do this, I’m not a puppet, how can you manipulate me like this?"

He wasn’t so egotistical and couldn’t fail to distinguish between good and bad.

He couldn’t utter a word of blame, he couldn’t be so pretentious.

Yan Chuo’er’s actions were completely for the benefit of Suo Lun, and she also carefully considered the interests of the Yan clan, while her own harm was the greatest.

Her gaze toward Suo Lun was still as before, filled with tenderness and loving care.

Having confirmed that Suo Lun had nothing to say, Queen Yanchuo spoke softly, "Let us continue to interact as we did before. If possible, you shall have a child with me, and if you feel that’s too difficult to accept, you can have a child with Xiaoxue’er, and then that child will be raised at my knee. In any case, we need to have a child as the future leader of the Yan clan, yes?"

Suo Lun nodded his head.

Because Yan Xue’er had been injured, her intelligence had always remained around that of a ten-year-old, but her body had fully developed, and there should be no problem for her to bear children.

"Good boy!" Queen Yanchuo stepped forward and gently kissed Suo Lun on the forehead.

Just as tender as before, she never scrimped on her inner love and affection.

Whether it was for Yan Xue’er, for Ning Bing, or for little Qin Qin, she would often express her tender love with a kiss.

"Ling, what do you plan to do next?" asked Yan Chuo’er.

Hearing her call him "Ling," Suo Lun felt slightly uncomfortable, as it had been a long time since he last heard that name.

Suo Lun said, "My fleet, together with Haigang’s Fleet, should be enough to transport all the Rock Tribe people and Rock Pirates away from the Thunder Archipelago."

Yan Chuo’er asked, "Where do you plan to relocate them to? Sky Piercer Island, or Hualan Island?"

Sky Piercer Island, thirteen hundred miles away from Tian Shui City’s maritime borders. The island had some woods and freshwater, but largely, it’s composed of more rocks than soil, and the conditions are somewhat harsh.

Hualan Island, a very enchanting island, with abundant vegetation and more freshwater resources compared to Sky Piercer Island. Even many species of animals lived there.

Relatively speaking, the conditions on Hualan Island were much better.

Suo Lun said, "Aunt, you are the King of the Yan clan; it is for you to decide."

"Let’s choose Sky Piercer Island," said Yan Chuo’er. "If the Yan clan wants to maintain its combat power, it must live in harsher environments."

Suo Lun said, "Alright, then Sky Piercer Island it is!"

Yan Chuo’er asked, "After reorganizing the Rock Thieves Corps, they will need a barracks. Where do you plan to place them?"

Suo Lun said, "Barbaric Gorge and Tianlang Pass, this area is close to the Southern Barbarian Continent and unpopulated. I plan to build a brand new defense line, completely connecting Tianlang Pass with Barbaric Gorge. The main base of the Rock Tribe Corps will be situated along this defense line. In the future, when we wage war on the Barbarian Tribes, the Rock Thieves Corps will be the absolute main force."

"Tonight, you shall sleep here, as a gesture for our marriage alliance," Yan Chuo’er said.

Suo Lun hadn’t slept properly in several days and nights, yet he still found himself unable to sleep, his mind in disarray.

Yan Chuo’er sat beside him, gently massaging his temples and humming a tune.

Soon, Suo Lun calmed down and drifted off to sleep.

...

The next day, early in the morning!

Fifteen thousand Rock Pirates and more than thirty thousand Rock Tribe people all withdrew from the Thunder Archipelago.

Of them, fifteen thousand Rock Pirates boarded Suo Lun’s supply fleet. And the more than thirty thousand Rock Tribe people boarded Haigang’s Fleet.

Seeing these people leave, Suo Lun truly felt astounded.

Every one of the Rock Tribe people boarded the ships empty-handed, not carrying any belongings.

The Yan clan was a very wealthy race, living off plunder, with endless silk, satin, fine wines, and gourmet food. But the Yan clan had no habit of accumulating wealth.

In fact, every Rock Tribe person had plenty of Gold Coins. However, during the previous night, everyone had already turned in their Gold Coins to Queen Yanchuo, which filled three ships’ worth of Gold Coins.

One ship of Gold Coins was from when Yan Mo plundered Suo Lun’s caravan, which naturally had to be returned to Suo Lun. Moreover, after deliberation by the elders of the Yan clan, since they would serve the Suo Family from now on, and the Yan clan would reside on Sky Piercer Island given by Suo Lun, the Yan clan was to tribute one ship of Gold Coins to Suo Lun.

Thus, after this great battle, Suo Lun’s coffers swelled by nearly half a million Gold Coins, enough to reorganize an army of hundreds of thousands.
