Chapter 101: Martial King vs. Martial King (2)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Ruoyun smiled faintly. Her clear eyes focused on the man in black who stood before her as she said, "Whether I’m stalling for time or not, you should at least tell me your name before you kill me, right?"

"My name?" The man in black sneered, "You’re not worthy enough to know my name. Regardless of how long you plan to prolong this matter Gu Ruoyun, it will be to no avail. No one... will be able to save you."

"Whoever said no one would be able to save her?"

Suddenly, an angry roar was heard from behind Gu Ruoyun. Upon turning their heads to look, the crowd saw General Luo and Luo Yin leading ten thousand elite soldiers from the crowd. It was as if they had already discussed it before the incident, the crowd parted to form a road for the army, allowing them to reach Gu Ruoyun smoothly.

The elite soldiers immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Ling Yu and the man in black.

"General Luo." Ling Yu’s expression turned an ugly shade, "As the general of a nation, you're actually abusing your official authority? You're mobilizing imperial troops all for the sake of a personal grudge!"

General Luo swiftly drew his greatsword from its hilt and stabbed it into a piece of the ground in front of him loudly. He was adorned in full armor, looking like an awe-inspiring god of war that was planning on defending Gu Ruoyun.

"Whoever told you that I'm abusing my authority? That I'm using it for my personal grudges? As a general, I am protecting Azure Dragon Country!" He smiled coldly and looked at the man in black, "A man of unknown origin has infiltrated the Azure Dragon Country. My country! As a general that serves the Azure Dragon Country, it is my duty to investigate this matter thoroughly. Who can say if he'll compromise the safety of His Imperial Highness! So, until such time that we thoroughly investigate and determine your identity, please follow me."

A cold and gloomy aura circled the man in black. His venomous, snake-like eyes locked onto General Luo’s figure, seemingly similar to a mountain. He replied hoarsely, "I don’t want to be tangled with a nation's military, so if you even have a semblance of a brain, leave immediately or I may just kill you first!"

Instantly, sharp murderous intent could be felt rushing toward General Luo.

General Luo turned pale as he felt the murderous intent the man's aura was giving off, his body swayed. However, upon remembering that he was the general of a nation, he knew that it would look terrible if he was beaten by someone in front of the entire capital. So, he squared his shoulders and stood proudly in front of the man in black.

"Gu Ruoyun, are you okay?"

Luo Yin rushed to Gu Ruoyun and asked worriedly, "Who is this guy? Why would he even want to help Ling Yu kill you?"

She did not believe that Ling Yu would be capable of compelling a high ranked cultivator to come to her aid.

"I’m not sure," Gu Ruoyun shook her head, "That aura on his body is unfamiliar to me... I’ve never seen it before and I'm not sure what his motive is."

Luo Yin patted Gu Ruoyun’s shoulder and spoke with the air of a solemn vow, "Don't worry, no matter what. This is the Azure Dragon Country and my father is one of the two generals who defend it. The military power that he leads is on par with the power of that old man from the Gu family. No one dares to kill in front of my father, as long as we’re in the Azure Dragon Country."

"That’s not necessarily true."

The expression in Gu Ruoyun’s eyes turned grave, "This opponent is far too strong, and for an expert cultivator of this level, no matter how strong your military powers are, it won’t matter."

Those who had never reached the rank of Martial King would never know how fearsome cultivators in this rank were. Even if he was to face a million heroic soldiers, he would cut them all down to the last man. For the sake of her life, however, General Luo and Luo Yin did not even hesitate to go against a Martial King. Gu Ruoyun felt touched.

However, if General Luo’s men could somehow stall him, then they would have some hope of turning the tables…

However…

Gu Ruoyun narrowed her eyes and spoke to the being that resided within her soul, "Zixie, if General Luo or Luo Yin should ever be in danger, take action. Saving their lives is more important. While I do need them to stall the Martial King before me, I don’t want them to be in danger just because of me. Hence, when the time comes, I’m leaving it all to you."

Gu Ruoyun did not intend to use Zixie in a battle, unless she was left with no other choice.

After a moment of deep silence, the man’s demonic yet charming voice spoke from within her soul, "Alright, I understand…"

"Haha!"

General Luo laughed aloud, "Honestly, I don't want to make an enemy of you either. As long as you follow me quietly, and after I’ve investigated your identity thoroughly, I’ll definitely let you go."

"Hmph!"

The eyes of the man in black turned cold, he replied in a sinister tone, "It would seem like you’ve chosen to disregard my warning and protect her. So… I can only choose to send you to hell first."

The man’s figure rushed towards General Luo in a flash, just like a ghost. His eerie voice was so close to the general, it as if it was just beside his ears.

"A lower level Martial General dares to show such audacity in front of me. I’d like to see, just how you’re going to take me away now!"

However, before he could reach General Luo, the imperial troops rushed forward to block him from his attack…

"A bunch of ants. Get out of my way!"

The man roared angrily and struck the chest of every soldier. They were all fiercely thrown out of the way as if they had been struck by heavy rocks. Then, fresh blood flowed from their noses as they lay on the ground in agony, it was extremely terrifying…

Although he already knew of the extent of a Martial King’s power, General Luo could not help but break into a cold sweat upon the sight of his opponent's devastation of his troops — all from one single roar.

However, the circumstances did not allow for him to retreat, nor would he permit himself to do so.

Gu Ruoyun’s eyebrows knit into an even deeper crease, she lowered her eyes and muttered, "Zixie, prepare for battle."

"Relax, I’m already fully prepared. If he were to be in danger, I’ll come out at once."

The man’s voice slowly entered her ears. Upon hearing this, Gu Ruoyun miraculously calmed down.

She knew, that with Zixie around, there would not be any problems…

"Did you really think that you’d be able to stop me with trash like these, kid?" The man in black sneered as he spoke with a sinister expression, "Once I've decided to kill someone, no one can stop me! So I’ll give you another chance. Leave!"

"Haha!"

General Luo laughed openly, holding the formidable might of a military man.

"I have met countless dangers on the battlefield. If I were actually afraid of death, then I wouldn’t be standing in this position today! I’m not like that old man from the Gu family. He became the general of our nation thanks to his ancestor’s blessings and his genius son, Gu Tian. However, I achieved everything I have no by walking step by step, up the ladder, on my own! Did you really think that I would be a coward, who would leave his troops behind and run away from the battlefield?"

The middle-aged man’s presence held a grand sort of elegance. Compared with that cowardly, weak and old General Gu, this was the image of a truly prestigious general.

"Fine, since you want to die, then I’ll grant your wish!"

A great wave hit him, causing a loud rumble. This made General Luo stumble a few steps backward. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned deathly pale.

However, he stood his ground in resolution, not allowing his legs to bend, not even a little.

Being a hot-blooded male, General Luo would rather die standing than show even a hint of weakness in front of an enemy.
