“Psssh, psssh, psssh…”
Gao Yu and Ashi Luo continued their mad mutual stabbing, but their speed grew slower and slower, slower and slower…
In the end, the two knelt there motionless. One hand still tightly grasped the other, and the other hand still raised the weapon in hand.
The chests of both men had been stabbed at least several dozen to a hundred times, truly riddled with holes.
Even the blood had already stopped flowing.
Both men’s eyes were wide open, dying with grievance unavenged.
Naier’s speed involuntarily slowed, grief rising from her heart.
Ashi Luo, this devil, this scum, this bastard was finally dead.
But why did Gao Yu have to be the price?
Gao Yu, Young Uncle Gao, that cold, stern grand eunuch who never smiled, had lost his life to protect her, Yan Naier.
His duty had only ever been one, to protect His Majesty the King. But now, he had died to protect her.
Naier’s grief grew thicker and thicker, until she was too sorrowful to feel any joy.
Taking a deep breath, she continued forward. She would destroy Ashi Luo’s corpse, tear it into ten thousand pieces, grind his bones to dust.
However…
Just at this moment, Ashi Luo, who had already been thoroughly dead, suddenly raised his head again. He revealed a bizarre smile towards Yan Naier.
“Darling, let me show you a magic trick.”
Ashi Luo lifted his clothing, revealing his chest riddled with holes. There were several dozen wounds in total, every one fatal, nearly piercing through his body.
Then…
An incomparably bizarre, yet to Naier incomparably familiar scene appeared.
These terrifying wounds grew and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye…
In just a few short seconds, these wounds vanished without a trace.
Ashi Luo’s originally mangled chest once again recovered to be completely intact.
Lightly wiping away the bloodstains, his chest was still smooth and clean, flawless as white jade.
And when Naier saw this scene, she was completely, completely stunned.
She had not expected that she possessed this energy in her body, and Ashi Luo also possessed it. Moreover, it seemed the energy within his body was even more bizarre and powerful.
“Scary, isn’t it? Bizarre, isn’t it… Darling, so even when someone is servicing me with their little mouth, and hatred suddenly flares in their heart and they bite down fiercely, I can automatically recover.” Ashi Luo said. Then his gaze turned towards Gao Yu and he said, “You dead eunuch, was there a need to fight so desperately? Was there? I have never suffered such a great loss in my life.”
Then, before Naier’s eyes that were about to split open.
Ashi Luo’s demon blade lightly slashed, directly severing Gao Yu’s head.
At this time, the blood in Eunuch Gao Yu’s body had already flowed dry. After cutting off his head, not much blood sprayed out.
“Should this skull be made into a wine cup, or a chamber pot?” Ashi Luo said with difficulty, “Usually, I use men’s skulls as wine cups and women’s skulls as chamber pots. But this Gao Yu is so hateful, let him be made into a chamber pot.”
At this time, Naier’s hatred and fury had reached their absolute peak. Her entire delicate body was trembling, shuddering.
Ashi Luo’s gaze fell again upon the Blood Sea Dragon Gold Sword in Gao Yu’s other hand. This was what Naier had given him during the battle.
“Wow, a Dragon Gold Sword. It’s mine…” He reached out to take it.
But Eunuch Gao Yu gripped it too tightly, completely immovable.
“Damn…” Ashi Luo slashed down with one blade, severing Gao Yu’s wrist. Then he grasped the severed hand and Dragon Gold Sword together.
“I now have two Dragon Gold precious blades, one in each hand. The left hand kills men, the right hand kills women.” Ashi Luo said, “Oh, no, I should use both hands’ swords to stab men. I only use my big bird on women.”
Naier’s entire body trembled. The several thousand cavalry behind her drew closer and closer.
She suddenly flipped over and leapt up, mounting a war horse.
“Charge up, tear this beastly devil into ten thousand pieces, ten thousand pieces…” Naier roared loudly.
Ashi Luo seemed not to see the cavalry charging towards him at all. He began to vent his fury upon Gao Yu’s corpse.
“Stabbing me, stabbing me…”
“Hitting me, do you know? You stabbing me several dozen times, how much life force does that make me overdraw? How many women do I need to drain dry to make up for it?”
“Damn, those are all beautiful young girls, beautiful young wives. Are you willing to let me drain them into human husks? I am not even willing, yet you are?”
“Their deaths are all your fault, all your fault…”
As he spoke, he madly chopped and slashed with the Dragon Gold sword and blade in both hands.
After chopping for quite a while, Ashi Luo cut Gao Yu’s corpse into a puddle of minced meat.
Then, he finally seemed to have vented a fair amount.
Ashi Luo stood up, looking at the several thousand cavalry continuously charging towards him, looking at Yan Naier in their midst and saying, “Go and tell Sauron, I have never suffered such a great loss in my life. So I will certainly, certainly take revenge.”
“I am going home first to recuperate, and conveniently replenish the life force I overdraw and lost. Once I have completely recovered, I will bring back more, more, more Demon Continent experts.”
“I will snatch you, Yan Naier. I will snatch Suo Ningbing. I will snatch all the women by Sauron’s side.”
“Then, I will rape you in front of Sauron, rape Suo Ningbing, rape Yan Xue’er, rape all the women by his side.”
“I will devour all your martial arts, devour all the Rock Queen’s martial arts. As for those women by Sauron’s side who are not sufficiently beautiful, I will alive drain them into human husks.”
“Finally, I shall sever Sauron’s hands and feet, cut him into a human stick, and place him in my chamber pot. Hahahaha!”
“Three months, at most three months, I will bring countless Demon Continent experts back to carry out a revenge of utter horror.”
“In this lifetime of mine, I have never suffered such a great loss!”
Ashi Luo grabbed a handful of minced meat from Gao Yu’s corpse and turned to leave.
As he walked, a bizarre thick smoke gradually rose from his body. This smoke grew thicker and thicker, completely obscuring Ashi Luo’s body.
“Fire arrows…” Naier hurriedly commanded.
Instantly, several thousand cavalrymen all drew their bows and nocked their arrows, madly firing towards Ashi Luo’s direction.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
Round after round of arrow rain poured down.
In the end, that patch of ground was stuck full of arrows, densely packed.
All the smoke dispersed. Ashi Luo had already vanished without a trace.
This person was truly like a ghostly demon.
Naier dismounted and stood beside Eunuch Gao Yu’s remains.
There was no longer a corpse, only a puddle of flesh and blood.
Naier could no longer hold back. She squatted on the ground, covered her face, and wept loudly.
…
Several hours later!
Sauron and Princess Zhiyan returned, landing atop the city lord’s residence.
The first thing they saw was Naier with completely red eyes. Her beautiful eyes were filled with grief, and some trepidation as she looked at Sauron.
And Suo Ningbing also had red-rimmed eyes, still sobbing at this time.
Sauron’s heart trembled and he said, “What happened.”
Naier directly threw herself forward, tightly embracing Sauron. She did not cry loudly, but sobbed forcefully.
Sauron gently comforted her back, gently patting.
Suo Ningbing said, “Young Uncle Gao is dead.”
Upon these words, Sauron’s and Zhiyan’s expressions changed.
Young Uncle Gao, he was actually dead? His martial arts were so, so high. How could he die?
Suo Ningbing said, “It was Ashi Luo. He would not give up his evil designs on Naier. He brought Demon Continent experts, attempting to abduct Naier. Young Uncle Gao protected her with his life. Originally, he and Ashi Luo had already died together. But Ashi Luo seemed to possess a very bizarre energy. He actually healed very quickly, recovering completely intact.”
At this time, Naier’s grief had somewhat subsided. She was finally able to speak.
“Then, Ashi Luo destroyed Young Uncle Gao’s corpse, severed his head, and seized the Blood Sea Dragon Gold Sword.” Naier said tremulously, “He said he was going back first to recuperate, to replenish the overdrawn life force. At most three months, he will bring more Demon Continent experts to carry out revenge, the most horrific revenge. He said that in this lifetime, he had never suffered such a great loss.”
Sauron slowly closed his eyes, once again wrapping Yan Naier into his embrace.
So close, so close he had come to losing Naier.
He truly had not expected that Ashi Luo would actually come again.
He completely did not know that Zhiyan had already left, and that within Tianshui City there were thousands upon thousands of troops. Yet he still came.
Moreover, it was merely to sleep with Yan Naier.
Was this person a madman? A perverted madman?
To obtain a woman he had set his eyes upon, completely unscrupulous in means? Without any rationality whatsoever?
And had the master of the Demon Continent also gone mad? Actually following him in his madness, even sending Demon Continent experts?
These people, did they all lack rationality?
However…
Madmen without rationality were the most, most terrifying. They completely did not play by the rules.
And Young Uncle Gao, that cold, stern grand eunuch who never smiled, to fulfil his promise had actually lost his own life. And was truly torn into ten thousand pieces.
That martial arts master who had taught his own father, actually… died on his own territory, to protect Sauron’s wife.
Waves of grief continuously surged in Sauron’s heart.
“Husband, that devil will come again in three months, and will bring even more Demon Continent experts. What shall we do?” Naier said, “How about having Aunt Chuo’er and Father both come to the city lord’s residence?”
Yan Chuo’er and Yan Yan were both top experts. Add to that Princess Zhiyan. If necessary, a batch of inner palace experts could also be transferred from the royal palace.
But there is only the logic of a thief guarding against capture for a thousand days. How can there be the logic of guarding against a thief for a thousand days?
Therefore, truly killing this madman was the once-and-for-all solution.
“No, killing that devil is the once-and-for-all solution.” Sauron’s gaze turned towards Princess Zhiyan and he said, “It seems our plans must be greatly accelerated. Within three months, resolve Ashi Luo.”
Princess Zhiyan nodded.
In this world, there was one person who could destroy Ashi Luo, and would basically not be retaliated against by the Demon Continent.
That was Ashi Liren. Firstly, her killing her younger brother was because Ashi Luo harboured evil designs towards her, attempting to commit incestuous acts. Moreover, her killing Ashi Luo was completely a family matter of the Ashi clan.
Of course, the most important thing was that behind Ashi Liren stood the Eastern Departure King Jiang Shang.
This was a peerless powerhouse who combined martial might and power in one body. This number one expert under heaven, who did not even pay much heed to the Divine Dragon Temple, would certainly not fear the Demon Continent.
The Eastern Departure Kingdom had a legacy of nearly a thousand years, possessing incomparable depth of foundation.
His ancestor had been the right-hand man of Emperor Longdi.
Therefore, the Divine Dragon Temple had spread its influence throughout the entire human kingdom. But in the Eastern Departure Kingdom, after countless efforts, only three temples had been established, and they were not permitted to enter by force.
This peerless powerhouse Jiang Shang, who did not even fear the Divine Dragon Temple, naturally also did not fear retaliation from the Demon Continent.
Sauron said, “Next, I shall first go to bring my daughter home. Then within a few days, I shall immediately infiltrate Rouran City to Ashi Liren’s side, destroy Ashi Luo, and support her in becoming the City Lord of Rouran. Young Uncle Gao’s revenge, I shall take. I shall personally tear him into ten thousand pieces!”
“Yes.” Princess Zhiyan said, “The home front, leave it to Naier and me.”
At this time, Naier’s beautiful eyes reddened. She bowed towards Zhiyan and called out, “Elder Sister, this younger sister pays her respects.”
Naier’s bow was equivalent to completely acknowledging Zhiyan as the principal wife.
Sauron felt pained in his heart and turned away.
Suo Ningbing stepped forward and asked, “Little brother, you, are you planning to use Tu Lingchen to exchange for the whereabouts of our daughter, or Count Tuli Wen?”
Sauron said, “Use Tu Lingchen, but… not the complete Tu Lingchen.”
Then, Sauron said, “Zhiyan, come with me to the secret dungeon.”
“Alright.” Zhiyan said.
Then, the two of them left the city lord’s residence.
Suo Ningbing took Naier’s hand and said, “Good child, you have been wronged.”
“It is no wrong.” Naier looked at Sauron’s departing figure and said, “Husband is going to torture Tu Lingchen. He has a fury in his heart that needs venting. But he is unwilling for me to witness such dark matters. That is why he called Zhiyan to go with him. The one he loves in his heart is me.”
A softness rose in Suo Ningbing’s heart. She gently embraced Naier and said, “Yes, the one he loves most is you. If it were not for the request made when the king was critically ill, if Young Uncle Gao had not met with misfortune, he would never have been willing to marry Zhiyan.”
Naier pressed her face against Ningbing’s bosom and said, “As long as I can be together with Elder Sister and Husband, no matter for how long, I am infinitely satisfied.”
Infinite pain surged in Naier’s heart, because she faintly sensed that she had already overdrawn too much of her life force.
She truly did not know how much longer she could live.
…
Sauron and Zhiyan headed towards the secret dungeon where Tu Lingchen was imprisoned. The specific location of this dungeon was known to no more than five people.
Sauron suddenly asked, “Demon Star, Ashi Luo also possesses that bizarre energy in his body. No matter how severe the injury, he can instantly heal. But the life force he overdraws can be replenished. How is that done?”
Sauron of course cared about Naier’s life. He knew Naier had been injured again this time, and had overdrawn her life force again.
So, how much longer could she still live? Sauron completely could not estimate. Perhaps two years? Perhaps even less.
Sauron worried that Naier would not even last until the day of their wedding.
The Demon Star said, “Ashi Luo uses the evil technique of harvesting yin to supplement yang, draining women dry of their lives to compensate for himself. This method, Lady Naier cannot use.”
Sauron said, “Then, then tell me, what exactly is that bizarre energy within Naier’s and Ashi Luo’s bodies?”
The Demon Star was silent for a moment, then said, “It is demon blood, devil king blood.”
Sauron said tremulously, “That is the devil king who destroyed the Blood Sea Lost City, who once nearly completely destroyed the entirety of human civilisation?”
“Yes.” the Demon Star said.
“Then, then how can Naier’s life be prolonged?” Sauron asked.
The Demon Star said, “Very simple. You become the Demon Emperor of World Destruction, become the devil king.”
“Shut up, shut up, shut up…” Sauron roared inwardly.
Sauron and Zhiyan walked into the secret dungeon, looking at the sole prisoner inside, Tu Lingchen.
And at this time, in Sauron’s heart, there was infinite fury surging and roaring.
