The family warriors present truly felt a heart-wrenching, lung-tearing pain.
Suo Han Yi was really their idol and their spiritual pillar. Now this spiritual pillar had completely collapsed.
How could this be? How could this be?
They really would rather die than believe that Lord Suo Han Yi would betray them, yet the facts lay right before their eyes.
On the contrary, Suo Ning Bing, after the initial shock, quickly calmed down and even felt a small trace of relief in her heart.
Her relief came from the fact that Suo Lun was right and everyone else was wrong.
Only then did she suddenly realise how biased she actually was. Suo Han Yi’s position in her heart was so insignificant compared with Suo Lun’s.
The family warriors’ leader Suo Mu still could not believe everything before his eyes. He said in a trembling voice: “Lord Suo Han Yi, you, you have really betrayed the Suo clan. Are you really here to kill us?”
Suo Han Yi’s gaze trembled. He said coldly: “Betray the Suo clan? Then one must first ask what the Suo clan family has treated me as. Nothing but a household slave. In recent years what has supported Tianshui City and the Suo clan family? It has all depended on me alone. I am invincible in battle and I enjoy the full support of the people. Suo Lun this waste is completely useless and only knows how to squander the family fortune and chase women. Yet such an incompetent person can become the master of the Suo clan and the lord of Tianshui City. While I am so outstanding but can only toil like an ox and horse for the Suo clan?”
As soon as these words came out the Suo clan family warriors immediately felt completely shaken and on the verge of collapse.
Was this still the righteous, fair and selfless Lord Suo Han Yi?
He was actually so narrow-minded and so ungrateful. If it were not for the Suo clan he would still be nothing but a serf.
That was right. His military skills were unrivalled, but one must not forget that this was the result of Count Suo Long devoting all his efforts to training him. For more than ten years Count Suo Long had treated him better than his own son Suo Lun.
Suo Ning Bing said coldly: “Suo Han Yi, you say we treat you as a household slave and not as one of our own? Does that mean I must allow you to take liberties with me and endure humiliation to become your woman before it counts as doing right by you?”
As soon as these words came out the Suo clan family warriors were even more horrified. Suo Han Yi actually had such a shameless demand?
Suo Ning Bing was his adopted younger sister and Suo Han Yi already had a wife. This treacherous scoundrel actually dared to demand that young miss Suo Ning Bing become his woman?
Utterly shameless, utterly shameless. In the family warriors’ hearts no man was worthy of the heavenly beauty, noble and gentle young miss Suo Ning Bing.
At once Suo Mu felt incomparable shame in his heart. Lord Suo Lun had eyes like torches and wisdom as deep as the sea. He had seen through Suo Han Yi’s betrayal at a glance.
Yet they were so foolish, not only questioning Lord Suo Lun’s wisdom but even repeatedly defying him. They truly deserved ten thousand deaths.
Immediately Suo Mu came before Suo Lun, knelt straight down and said: “Master, Suo Mu was wrong. I should never have doubted you. Please punish me, master.”
Suo Lun did not help him up but only said: “I have said that the first time can be forgiven, but it is also the last time.”
“Understood.” Suo Mu kowtowed heavily and said: “Suo Mu will never again have any doubts towards the lord and will unconditionally carry out any of your orders.”
At the same time all the other family warriors neatly knelt towards Suo Lun and kowtowed to admit their fault.
Seeing this scene Suo Han Yi’s anger surged to the sky and jealousy drove him mad. These Suo clan family warriors had previously shown him reverence as if to heaven. Now Suo Lun had stepped on his head and gained the highest prestige among this group of people. This was absolutely intolerable, absolutely intolerable.
“Suo Lun, you are really something, actually stepping on my head to rise up.” Suo Han Yi said coldly. “Then next let them continue to serve you loyally in hell.”
With that Suo Han Yi fiercely drew his sharp sword.
Suo Lun said: “Suo Han Yi, since we are already doomed to die before you anyway, please tell the truth. Did you kill Lord Yan Nu? Did you kill elder sister Yang Hong Yi?”
Suo Han Yi’s face twitched. He raised his head and said: “No poison, no great husband. So what if it was me?”
Suo Lun said: “Then today are you going to kill all of us? Then lead the army to retake Tianshui City, stage a king’s return and transform into the saviour of Tianshui City.”
“Smart!” Suo Han Yi said. “Anyway the only ones who have seen my true face now are you and Princess Zhi Ning. Once I kill all of you no one will know what I have done. As for Princess Zhi Ning? I will devote myself fully to serving His Highness Zhi Li. From now on we will be one family.”
Suo Han Yi was right. At this moment the rebel troops at the foot of the mountain were far away and could not hear what was being said here. Not to mention that Suo Han Yi was now standing with his back to them.
“Correct.” Zhi Ning said. “This certificate of allegiance from you is exactly what I wanted.”
Suo Lun said: “Then what about my elder sister Suo Ning Bing, the one you have longed for day and night? What do you plan to do?”
“Even if I cannot obtain her heart I will still obtain her body.” Suo Han Yi said coldly. “Anyway the world will only see that she has married me. Who will know that her mind has already been ruined and that I have beaten her into an idiot?”
With that Suo Han Yi stared at Suo Ning Bing and said: “Ning Bing, you brought this on yourself. If you had obediently agreed to me earlier none of this would have happened.”
Then Suo Han Yi fiercely raised his great sword and said: “Charge up. Kill everyone except Suo Ning Bing. Leave Suo Lun to me. I will cut him into a thousand pieces.”
Then Suo Han Yi led the several hundred black-armoured warriors and charged up like a tidal wave.
“Roll…” Suo Lun gave the order.
Immediately the hundred or so family warriors pushed over all the piled giant rocks.
Several hundred giant rocks rumbled down with astonishing momentum.
These rocks of course could not harm Suo Han Yi and the other black-armoured warriors, but they could obstruct their path.
“Suo Han Yi, thank you for saving my life. If it were not for you I would have been ambushed and killed by Zhi Ning’s people on the road long ago.” Suo Lun laughed loudly and said: “Today I used myself as bait for two purposes. The first purpose was to escape with our lives. The second purpose was to expose your true face. Now both have succeeded. Thank you.”
While shouting Suo Lun ran madly towards the direction of the Nu River.
Suo Han Yi and Zhi Ning could not help but be stunned. Could this wastrel Suo Lun be so fierce in temperament that he actually wanted to jump off the cliff to commit suicide?
One must know that this mountain was more than six hundred metres high. Adding the cliff of the Nu River made it a full seven or eight hundred metres. Falling from this height would mean certain death.
He ran madly and quickly rushed out over the cliff edge.
“Rip…” Then Suo Lun fiercely tore open the huge package on his back.
“Bang…” There was a loud sound.
A huge hang glider was instantly released and was fiercely lifted by the air.
The howling wind blew the hang glider and it flew rapidly north.
Seeing this scene everyone was completely stunned.
Ye Jing Yu was stunned. Suo Ning Bing was stunned. And all the family warriors felt their entire bodies go numb with shock.
They could now finally understand the feelings of the audience when Suo Lun performed Destiny, and the feelings of all the onlookers when Suo Lun, in the final great examination, shot blindly yet hit the target every time.
This instant truly shook the heart completely.
A person could actually fly. They could actually fly out without needing wings.
One hundred people surrounded by more than ten thousand were already unable to fly even with wings. Even immortals could not save them.
Suo Lun had said he would save them all and all the family warriors had sneered at it. Yet he had really done it.
Suo Lun shouted from high in the air: “Obey my orders. Everyone run madly towards the northern cliff. Before falling fiercely tear open the package on your back.”
After the shock the first to react was Suo Ning Bing, not because she reacted quickly but because she instinctively wanted to catch up with Suo Lun.
She began to run with force. Before she even reached the cliff edge she fiercely tore open the package on her back.
“Whoosh…” The huge hang glider suddenly opened. Driven by the strong wind it carried Suo Ning Bing’s delicate body and flew rapidly towards the northern bank of the Nu River.
The remaining family warriors also immediately began to run madly. Then at the cliff edge they leaped fiercely and tore open the cloth strips of the packages on their backs.
“Swish swish swish swish swish…”
Instantly one hang glider after another suddenly opened.
Like one pair of wings after another, driven by the strong wind they carried the hundred or so Suo clan warriors and flew towards the northern bank of the Nu River.
The wind at this moment was a full ten or more metres per second. In just a few seconds they had already flown dozens of metres.
By the time Suo Han Yi and the black-armoured warriors had all dodged the rolling giant rocks and charged towards the mountaintop, Suo Lun had already flown across the Nu River and gone several hundred metres.
And all the other family warriors had also flown across the Nu River one after another.
Seeing this scene all the black-armoured warriors were completely and utterly stunned.
A miracle, an unparalleled skill!
In this world there were actually people who could really fly. The royal capital also had griffin warriors, but even adding up all the griffin warriors in the entire Nu Lang Kingdom there were no more than a few hundred. Moreover griffin warriors only obeyed the king’s orders. No one else was allowed to own griffins or ride them.
Yet now Suo Lun had actually made more than a hundred of these wondrous things and had used them to lead them to escape with their lives from the encirclement of ten thousand troops.
At this moment Zhi Ning could not help but tremble all over. Her beautiful eyes widened at the scene before her.
Suo Lun had once again performed a miracle. Just like that night when he performed Destiny. Just like that day when his eyes were completely blind yet he shot blindly and hit every target.
Today, facing such a desperate situation, he had actually escaped with his life.
Moreover he had done so in such an inconceivable way, flying across the Nu River before everyone’s eyes.
This scene brought an indelible shock to everyone.
“Suo Han Yi, in half a year I will definitely defeat you and retake Tianshui City.”
“Zhi Ning, remember my words. I will definitely rape you first then kill you, then rape you again and kill you again!”
In the air Suo Lun’s final words faintly came through.
This sentence seemed to awaken Zhi Ning and made her recall every night’s dreams in which Suo Lun violated her again and again.
He kept saying he would rape her first then kill her, yet in the dreams he had violated her far more than ten or a hundred times.
Immediately after Zhi Ning thought of another matter.
This thing that could fly, Suo Lun definitely had not made it now but had prepared it back in the royal capital.
When he was in the royal capital he had already thought that Suo Han Yi had betrayed them. He had already thought of today’s scene and had already thought of the method of escape.
She had been smugly driving Suo Lun into the trap. Who knew that she had actually been walking according to his calculations all along.
He, he was actually so calculating without any oversight and his wisdom was almost demonic.
What she was most proud of and most outstanding at was schemes and cunning.
Yet now Suo Lun had defeated her in the very area she was most proud of.
Once again she had suffered a crushing defeat before Suo Lun.
Was this fate? Was he born to be her nemesis?
At once Zhi Ning felt her vision go black and waves of dizziness came over her.
She had not slept for several days and nights. First she had commanded the rebel troops to attack the city, then she had forced Suo Han Yi to betray, and finally she had surrounded and tried to kill Suo Lun.
These days she had completely exhausted her mind. And it had not even been half a month since the last time she had spat blood.
Now not only had all her previous efforts come to nothing but she had once again been humiliated by Suo Lun.
“Puff…” A mouthful of blood spurted out fiercely. Zhi Ning fainted and collapsed, unconscious.
At this time Suo Han Yi still stood at the cliff edge, staring blankly at the scene before him and at Suo Lun’s back which had already gone far away.
“Shoot them dead, shoot them dead!” He roared, yet Suo Lun had already flown far and these were swordsmen, not archers, and they had not brought bows and arrows.
“Ah… ah… ah…”
He did not spit blood but let out an earth-shaking angry roar.
Then he drew his great sword and hacked everything around him into pieces.
“Suo Lun, I will definitely tear your corpse into ten thousand pieces, tear your corpse into ten thousand pieces!”
