The jade-like softness entered his hand, and Sauron felt a surge of desire, followed by surprise.
Nai’er was a girl who was bold and proactive in matters of affection, yet extremely conservative and pure when it came to physical relations. She had always insisted on waiting until their wedding night to give herself completely to Sauron.
Normally, their relationship was limited to kissing at most. Any further advance would be rejected.
Sauron’s hands were restless, often taking opportunities to sneak attacks and stealthy touches. For this, he had been hit more than once or twice.
Unexpectedly, she now spoke of offering herself voluntarily.
However, Sauron would never refuse a bargain. His hands did not idle for a moment. His lips pressed against Nai’er’s ear, gently biting her earlobe while speaking softly, “Darling, did you not always insist on waiting until our wedding night?”
How could Nai’er withstand such teasing from Sauron? Her delicate body instantly went soft and tingling, her breathing rapid.
She had previously insisted on preserving propriety, wanting to save the most beautiful moment for the wedding night, so that life would hold no regrets.
But the day before yesterday, when she heard news of Sauron’s death from Tu Lingchen, what surged within her was endless regret.
Why had she not given herself to Sauron before?
That way, even if she died, there would not be much regret.
So when Sauron reappeared before her, after the wild joy of regaining what was lost, the first words she uttered were to give her body to Sauron.
If anything unexpected happened again in the future, she would not regret it.
Moreover, she had another layer of meaning.
This time, she and Tu Lingchen fought a great battle, suffering no light injuries, yet they were instantly healed by evil energy! So she did not know how many years of life she had overdrawn.
Therefore, she felt that she and Sauron should cherish every moment of time, loving and lingering intimately.
But Sauron did not want it this way.
He needed to give Nai’er a goal, the goal of their wedding night.
This way she would not let her thoughts run wild, and would also cherish her own life.
“I am certainly drooling with desire, but this is in Aunt’s room. She is an elder, equivalent to your mother-in-law. The first thing upon waking, instead of paying respects to your mother-in-law, you ask me for pleasure. That is probably not good.” Sauron said this while his hands continuously slid down inside Nai’er’s clothing.
Nai’er was originally being toyed with until her mind was in chaos, her soul flying to the heavens.
Hearing his words now, she suddenly shivered, immediately sitting up her delicate body, glaring fiercely at him, “Quickly take me there.”
Then, she threw off the quilt and directly walked out. At this moment she was wearing a soft, smooth, snowy white silk nightgown, with nothing underneath.
“You go out first. I need to wash.” Nai’er said.
“When I carried you onto the ship, I already washed you. Every place has been washed, guaranteed pure and flawless, fragrant and pleasant.” When Sauron said this, his tone was frivolous.
Nai’er gritted her teeth, pushed him out of the room, then closed the door.
A moment later, faint sounds of water came from inside. After several minutes, Nai’er emerged with a red face.
“Let’s go!” Nai’er said, “Take me to see Mother-in-law!”
…
Upon seeing the Rock Queen, Nai’er’s face showed surprise. She truly had not expected that the aunt Sauron spoke of was so beautiful, so elegant.
She knelt on both knees, respectfully saying, “Yan Nai’er pays respects to Mother-in-law.”
Yan Chuor was startled, saying, “Rise.”
Then, the two of them suddenly could not find anything to say.
Whether Nai’er or Yan Chuor, neither was skilled with words.
If it were the previous Yan Chuor, she would truly have treated Nai’er as a daughter-in-law, full of tender affection.
But now, she had lost her memory. The reason she helped Sauron was because she had no other choice, and because Sauron had saved her life several times.
The reason she doted on Yan Xue’er was the blood connection, and because this girl made one feel incomparably tender affection at first glance.
“You, are you my sister-in-law?” The little princess Yan Xue’er asked softly from the side.
Nai’er looked toward Little Xue’er, nodding, “Yes. Are you Little Xue’er? You are truly beautiful.”
Little Xue’er’s face reddened, jumping for joy, “But Sister-in-law, you are more beautiful. Mother Queen is first, you are second, Little Xue is third.”
Then, she said to Nai’er, “I was married to Brother Shen Lang, but Mother Queen said that was fake. Sister-in-law, can I still go play with him in the future?”
Nai’er’s heart softened, her gaze tender, “Of course you can. He is your brother, I am your sister-in-law. We will both dote on you.”
…
After Tu Liwen’s flagship arrived at Luanyang City.
Tu Lingchen quickly disembarked, holding a box containing his severed arm, preserved with ice.
He ran at the fastest speed to the Luanyang City Lord’s mansion, because inside were the best medical cultivators, currently treating Tu Lingduo’s illness.
“Cultivator, can my hand still be reattached?” Tu Lingchen said, “Immediately after being severed, I placed it in ice. It has not deteriorated.”
That medical cultivator took Tu Lingchen’s severed arm. It was indeed still fresh and intact. Looking at the severed area, it was smooth as a mirror.
Closing his eyes and gently sniffing, he then shook his head, saying, “It should not be possible.”
Tu Lingchen’s face changed, “Why not possible? Is it not said that after a limb is severed, if immediately placed in ice, it will not deteriorate for several days, and can still be used if reattached?”
“Your arm was severed a full four days ago. The time is too long.” The medical cultivator said, “And most crucially, at your severed wound, there is a very terrifying energy, so it can no longer be reattached.”
Tu Lingchen nearly roared out in fury. He… he would actually be missing an arm from now on?
Although he was right-handed and used his right hand for swordplay, after losing an arm, how bizarre would he look? He was the heir of the Tu Ling Ducal Mansion.
“Ahh… ahh, Yan Nai’er, one day I will rape you then kill you, rape you then kill you!” Tu Lingduo screamed internally.
Then, he suddenly rushed toward another room, kicking the door open with one foot.
Inside, Tu Lingduo, who had been sleeping to recover her body, was startled awake. Seeing Tu Lingchen, she could not help but be startled, “Brother, what happened?”
Tu Lingchen stepped forward and fiercely slapped her several times.
“Slap slap slap slap…”
Tu Lingduo could not move, and could only let herself be beaten. Her entire face was beaten swollen, her nose and mouth bleeding.
“Did you not say Sauron was dead?” Tu Lingchen said fiercely.
Tu Lingduo was originally full of anger, but hearing these words, her heart trembled with cold, “You, what are you saying? Could it be Sauron is not dead?”
“Yes, not only is he not dead, but he is doing extremely well. Moreover, he led the Queen Island fleet and beat us to pieces. If not for taking Yan Nai’er as a hostage, none of us would have returned. And I… also lost an arm.” Tu Lingchen said fiercely, then grabbed Tu Lingduo’s hair to lift her up.
At this time, Tu Lingduo’s bones were broken, and had only just been set and were recovering. If she were lifted up like this, it would cause fatal damage.
“Stop!” City Lord Tu Liwen entered, saying coldly.
Tu Lingchen said hoarsely, “City Lord, she is the one who made you lose five thousand naval troops.”
City Lord Tu Liwen said, “As a person, one should bear proper responsibility. Tu Lingduo at the Rock Islands had already completed her mission, making Yan Mo act to kill Sauron. As for Sauron falling into the abyss yet not dying, that is his fate. What does it have to do with Tu Lingduo? Furthermore, Tu Lingduo made me dispatch a fleet to plunder Sauron’s Magic Mirror Secret Island. What was wrong with that? Did we not nearly succeed? As for encountering Sauron’s Queen Island fleet, that was calamity. What does it have to do with Miss Tu Lingduo?”
At these words, Tu Lingchen was startled.
City Lord Tu Liwen said, “Losing five thousand naval troops, my heart naturally aches as if twisted. But from beginning to end, did we do anything wrong? If not, why regret, why vent anger on others?”
These words made Tu Lingchen lose all face. Without a word, he directly walked out.
And Tu Lingduo lying on the bed was inwardly incomparably shaken. A superior like Tu Liwen was worthy of having subordinates risk their lives for him.
“Miss Tu Ling, recover well.” Tu Liwen walked out.
Returning to the city lord’s mansion, City Lord Tu Liwen directly issued an order!
“Assemble thirty thousand naval troops, three hundred warships, prepare to destroy Sauron!”
Originally, the Luanyang City Lord only planned to dispatch half his forces to participate in the war to destroy Sauron, a total of twenty thousand naval troops and two hundred warships.
This time, searching to plunder the Magic Mirror Secret Island, Tu Liwen lost five thousand naval troops. Not only did he not retreat, but he increased the stakes, dispatching thirty thousand naval troops and three hundred warships.
Lion and tiger fighting a rabbit, exerting full strength!
After issuing the order, he immediately dispatched flying falcons, flying to the royal capital Jidu, flying to the Pirate Harbour, flying to Yingzhou Hai Clan, flying to Linhai Gui Clan.
The secret letter read, “Sauron not dead, obtained Rock Queen Island fleet.”
Below the secret letter, in smaller cipher script it wrote, “Luanyang City preparing to dispatch thirty thousand naval troops, three hundred ships, lion and tiger fighting a rabbit, exerting full strength. Gentlemen, take care of yourselves.”
Gui Xingfu was the first to receive the secret letter, his face twitching violently.
Sauron like this… still had not died? Could there really be heavenly protection?
Then, he gritted his teeth and issued an order, “Dispatch all naval troops, prepare for the war to destroy Sauron!”
Gui Qinzhong said, “Father, but half the naval troops have only just recently boarded ships.”
Gui Xingfu said, “Assemble all, send out the entire nest.”
“Yes!” Gui Qinzhong and Gui Qinqu said.
At Linhai Gui Clan, originally two thousand naval troops had assembled. Now, under Gui Xingfu’s orders, they again assembled three thousand naval troops who had only recently finished training.
A full sixty ships, five thousand naval troops.
And fifteen thousand ground troops, already assembled, ready for ground combat at any time.
…
Duke Tu Lingtuo received this secret letter while on the Ling River journey, and immediately smashed his fist through the cabin wall.
Looking down from the sky, a fleet of several hundred cargo ships and warships stretched out magnificently, following the Ling River downstream toward the Eastern Sea.
This fleet had a full fifty thousand troops, riding cargo ship fleets provided by Luanyang City and Yingzhou Island, heading to Luanyang City to assemble.
“Full speed ahead.” Duke Tu Lingtuo said, “Within five days, reach the Luanyang City waters, join forces with other armies.”
…
Yingzhou Island.
Ashi Luo, Hai Wuyan, and Ashi Zhuo received the secret letter last, because the distance was relatively far.
“Sauron is not dead.” Ashi Luo said carelessly.
Hai Wuyan’s gaze contracted. Originally his interest in destroying Sauron was not great, so the fleet he dispatched was merely the portion belonging to Hai Naier.
But now it was different.
“I will also dispatch ten thousand naval troops, one hundred warships, to participate in the war to destroy Sauron!”
“Right, also send a letter to the Thunder Islands, tell Yan Mo that Sauron is not dead, even his mother is not dead!”
Several days later.
A full four hundred warships, forty thousand naval troops, stretched out magnificently, sailing south from Yingzhou Island toward the Luanyang City waters to assemble.
From this point, the armies of the four forces had all been dispatched.
Originally, it was only a bit over fifty thousand naval troops, one hundred ten thousand troops, participating in the war to destroy Sauron.
But now, there were a full seventy thousand naval troops, one hundred thirty thousand troops!
True tenfold military strength, true crushing force.
…
And at this time, Sauron’s Queen Island fleet officially docked at Tianshui City pier.
Seven thousand Rock pirates, over one hundred warships. This was all the naval strength Sauron had at hand.
The battle he was about to fight was an extremely lopsided battle.
A battle that looked to have not the slightest chance of victory.
The just-landed Sauron immediately boarded a ship, silently sailing toward the southeast direction.
Because there, there was the secret weapon for him to win this great decisive battle.
